CHAPTER 305 MORE TROUBLESOME

"You are too creepy!" Without anyone recognizing, the woman stepped backward and placed a

distance from Rocky. A light of vigilance shone from her eyes.

"I didn't have the privilege to know your name. Can I have the laud of knowing your name Miss?"

Rocky asked smiling after obtaining his ordinary look. His smile glowed like the stars in the sky, with no

bright city lights to dim them. It was like the sun opened its eager light to illuminate about her, only

brightening his perfectly aligned teeth.

"I'm Laney." The woman paused for a while, scrutinized Rocky up and down and responded back.

"You are Miss Laney?" Rocky's face was washed blank with bewilderment like his brain cogs couldn't

turn fast enough to capture in the information from her wide eyes. It was far beyond Rocky's prediction

to get into contact with the most renowned prostitute in Geisha House. Chances of laying their eyes on

her were minimum for ordinary people like him. It was a fat chance. Sheridan had earlier informed him

that she was a beauty. Laney had flowing golden curls or ivory skin; piercing eyes of green. She was

better than two dimensional photo shopped models. Her allure was so charming after one laid one's

eyes on her. She earned all the compliments now that he had met her face to face.

"What's amiss? Don't you think that I am pulling your leg?" Laney derided. At the back of her mind,

every man who set his eyes on her would froth. Preferring to be with her. Rocky was unlike that. He

never revealed any interest ever since from beginning to end.

This made her think her charming glamor which was yearned for by men vanished in thin air. Rocky

had become accustomed to being escorted by charmers and wasn't easy mesmerized by them. Laney

had no slightest perception that Rocky had met a multitude of charmers, who enjoyed the same

glamour as her.

"No, I don't. My teacher had pointed out to me that Miss Laney is a charm. You are worthy of the

name!" Rocky showered her with praises calmly but they all seemed to be cold praises.

"My instincts tell me that you don't mean it." Laney winked, after hearing what he said.

"Really?" Rocky scowled, he remained steady after not identifying the dissatisfaction in her voice.

When her eyes clashed with Rocky's, Laney couldn't spot the perfect word to respond, rendering her

dumb. For the first time she felt nothing after being charmed. It didn't imply that Rocky scorned her.

She could tell Rocky's compliment was from his heart. And this was way above what the covetous man

had commanded her. She had never experienced that kind of respond before, which she couldn't get

used to. This was such a unique feeling.

"It's a little late. I desire to have a rest! Please be vigilant!" Laney scowled, nodded to Rocky and

walked back her room. She then slammed the door behind her.

"It's intriguing. Such an amusing woman!" Rocky grinned revealing straight, pearly teeth after Laney

shutting the door. He walked out of the yard and then out of the Geisha House. Everything was quiet in

the night. Bereft of any wind, the leaves outside hung limp until they fell of their own accord, with the

moon in the sky visible.

After reaching in the base camp, Rocky found a place and cultivated for the entire night. He didn't go

back to his residence until the second morning.

Marin arrived as promptly as he just arrived at his residence and met with him alone outside.

"Did you have fun last night?" Marin leered at Rocky with her gorgeous eyes and asked abruptly. Her

eyes were simply spellbinding. Her left eye was a rapturous shade of cerulean blue, much more

appealing, and hazel-auburn rondure sphere orbited in her right eye. Each one held a coruscate gleam

that enhanced their beauty.

"Yes, of course! Commander Marin really showed compassionate to me and was even cognizant I went

to the Geisha House. Shall I tell you in detailed that what I did last night? How the girl who escorted me

for drinking looks like? Let me guess..." Rocky molested.

"Who gives a hoot about you! Don't lavish praises on yourself! I want to know what's your next plan

after Isis told you that," said Marin. Actually, Marin wanted to have a one on one conversation with

Rocky last night. At that time, it clicked her mind that Sheridan brought Rocky to have a drink at

whorehouse.

"Do you have any suggestion on what I should do?" Rocky asked back, peeked his eyes and gawked

at Marin.

"I am not caring about you! I am warning you not to hold against Commander in Chief. Anyway, he

plotted to promote you. You have to adhere to the rules now that you are in the military camp. Better

still follow the regulations. Sometimes you have to swallow your pride and do something against your

will. Luck isn't on your side now that Commander in Chief has recognized your expertise," Marin sighed

and displayed her uneasiness that Rocky felt reluctant to demonstrate his competence.

"It was all your fault. You asked me to attend Army Flag Contest!" Rocky stared at Marin with his arms

across his chest and said in a gratified voice.

"How could I be aware you are concealing something? If I were aware, I wouldn't have allowed you..."

Marin said. As if she wished to utter something else but halted on a second thought. That's how the

regret was getting her, it was taking a little bit of her defenses at a time. It came in waves, what she

should have done, what I shouldn't have done at all, considering she let him attend Army Flag Contest.

But what made her regretful yet she had no slightest idea about that?

"If you are sympathetic, think out how to compensate me!" Rocky said with a cheeky grin. It was like

the sun opened its eager light to shine about him, only brightening his perfectly aligned teeth. But Marin

threw a discontent look at him in return.

"To be sincere, I feel that Commander in Chief will give you a higher rank despite your performance in

the contest. You have no chance to decline it. But I am aware you won't accept it and compromise it so

quick. So, I just would prefer to be brought in the limelight on what your plan is!" Marin asked in an

attentive voice, an inquisitive glance on her face.

"You'll discover soon," Rocky said with an inexplicable grin on his face. He didn't plot to tell Marin all

about it. No matter who demanded to stop or hinder him, he wouldn't give up. This material belongs to .

Rocky whistled and Uriah flew out of the house and dashed to him.

"Well, I am going to take off," Rocky said and spun around and went away along with Uriah.

Capability contest was the second round. Lance was going to draw up the theme. The seven persons

who had progressed to the second round were eagerly awaiting at the martial pitch.

The martial pitch was in a sea of people like yesterday. Due to the limited pitch, most of the people

didn't witness the second half of yesterday's match. But the trending news was rescinded after Rocky

showed his eighth grade of the Earthly Stage, and it spread across the whole military camp like wildfire.

Rocky was perfectly well-known in the base camp. Everyone spoke of Rocky. How Commander in

Chief showered him with praises. How he obscured his capability of the eighth grade of the Earthly

Stage as a beast breeder.

Reputation might trouble you. It led to quite a pandemonium as instantly as Rocky and Uriah appeared

at the martial pitch. Everyone was inquisitive about Rocky and yearned to array their eyes on the beast

breeder and know how he looked like.

But Rocky was imperceptible to the turmoil and trudged forward with an impassive face.

"Mr. Bai..." Rocky heard that someone was calling him in a pleasant voice. He tilted his head and found

that Sue and Rubygon were standing among the crowd.

"Sue, I'm shocked beyond words that you are here. What brought you here?" Rocky asked as he

walked toward them.

"We come to watch your contest. I learned from Miss Isis that you have proceeded into the second

round. And you had a splendid performance yesterday. Everyone is talking about you in the base camp

now," Sue spoke in a high surge of excitement. Deliriously happy, giddy even.

"Did Rubygon put you in trouble? Did Isis hint anything about Rubygon?" Rocky smirked and asked

after seeing Rubygon near Sue. Rocky was just aware that Rubygon was at Isis Pavilion in the morning

and was dead worried that Isis would question about Rubygon's background.
