Ya Xiao quickly left.
Qin Qi watched the black-haired butler leave the camp and then withdrew his line of sight. Unexpectedly, he caught a glimpse of Mist beside him.
Mist was looking at Ya Xiao at that moment as well, his eyes full of meaningful relief.
Ya Xiao really liked the marshal very much.
Seeing the gift he sent being worn by the marshal, he was so happy. The love of a young man was really simple. This was youth. Mist couldn't help but feel some emotion in his heart.
For a moment, Qin Qi seemed to understand what Mist was thinking, and he was silent for a moment.
The same question arose in his mind. Would an ordinary butler be as happy as Ya Xiao when he saw himself wearing the cufflinks he gave him?
Ya Xiao liked the marshal, the kind who was interested in a mate.
Mist's past words suddenly echoed in his mind.
Realizing what he was thinking, Qin Qi's heart thumped and he immediately stopped his thoughts and turned his head to the culprit.
"Mist."
"Yes!"
Mist stood straight and immediately answered.
"Go check the information of every recruit in the fourth battalion."
Mist, who suddenly received the task, nodded seriously and instantly stopped thinking about it. He hurriedly nodded his head and left.
Looking at Mist's back as he left, Qin Qi's gaze turned to the recruits on the sand. The adjutant still couldn't be idle or else he would start rambling again.
The same went for himself.
Qin Qi's eyelashes slightly drooped, suppressing the waves in his heart.
Not far away, Soren had already brought more than twenty instructors to run in formation. Qin Qi's eyes were slightly cold as he entered his work state.
On the other side, Ya Xiao had already traveled to the butler's lounge. The camps of the four border bases were arranged close to each other, and the butler's lounge was also shared among them.
When Ya Xiao entered the lounge, it was empty, none of the three butler peers were present. He thought about it and lowered his head to send a message to the three butlers, asking them when they were coming.

This Geping was the head of the logistics department of the military academy in the plot. At the same time, he was also the person in charge of the building where the protagonist group was located because of the special nature of the building's office, so he should be working in the building at this time.
Wei Shi's reply was quick. He directly sent the floor location and welcomed, [You can just come directly!]
Ya Xiao curved his eyes as he replied, closing the screen and lifting his steps to leave the lounge.
Unlike the dormitory building where the marshals were temporarily staying, in order to allow the instructors to go to the training graduates in the first instance, the logistics office building that was originally closest to the camp had vacated some positions for these instructors.
Wei Shi and Qin Chen were housed on the sixth floor of the building.
As Ya Xiao walked downstairs, he could still clearly hear the sound of the recruits' training not far away.
"Ya Xiao!"
Wei Shi was waiting at the door after Ya Xiao sent the message.
Seeing Ya Xiao, the brown-haired young man acted enthusiastically, the emotion in his eyes a bit more real compared to usual. Ya Xiao's reassurance the last time had made Wei Shi feel a bit of favor and gratitude towards him.
"I'm not disturbing you, am I?"
Ya Xiao looked at Wei Shi in his dark blue instructor's uniform. The other party was Qin Chen's assistant, and it should be working time now.
"If it's interrupting, I'll make another appointment."
Wei Shi said in a teasing tone.
The young man in front of him was Qin Qi's butler. Even if it was hard to get words out of the other party, Wei Shi wanted to strike up a good relationship with Ya Xiao.
Ya Xiao followed with a smile.
"Our marshal is in the fourth battalion. It's very close to here, so I thought I'd come to meet you, say hello, and leave later."
Wei Shi expressed his understanding. After all, as the marshal's butler, Ya Xiao had to test his TH value every so often, so he was actually very busy.
"Let's go up then."
Wei Shi smiled, "Just in time for you to see our dormitory."
Of course, Ya Xiao wouldn't refuse.
When he entered the dormitory building, he slightly looked to the side. According to the plot introduction, Geping would stay in the supply room on the first floor to work every day.
Through the glass door, there was a small old man with a round figure sitting inside the small room with the light on. He had white hair and an old-fashioned glasses on his face. He looked very amiable.
The strength was weak, and the attack power was lower than that of an old man of the same age.
Ya Xiao made an accurate conclusion with a single glance.
Seemingly noticing them, the little old man raised his head and slowly got up and walked out the door.
"Gramps, I'm going to take my friend upstairs to rest for a while and not walk around, okay."
Wei Shi looked around not seeing anyone on guard duty. When he saw Geping come out, he pointed upstairs.
Because of his age, Geping mostly stayed in his office on the first floor, only heading to the formal conference room for meetings.
It was just as well to talk to him about anything.
Geping had a good relationship with the instructors, his thick arm patted his shoulder and scolded him with a smile, "Can I disagree if you've brought them here?"
"Old Li went to the bathroom, but signing is still necessary."
He pulled out the sign-in sheet, looked over at Ya Xiao, and handed it over, "Here, sign this."
Ya Xiao looked at Geping's slightly plump figure and his very endearingly easy-going demeanor. His blue eyes curved slightly as he took the pen and signed his name on it.
"You look familiar, are you a butler?"
Geping asked out of habit as he sized up Ya Xiao's appearance.
"Yes, I'm Marshal Qin's new butler."
Ya Xiao returned casually.
Geping froze for a moment, patted his head twice, and said with a sudden realization, "So it's Marshal Qin's new butler. I remember, I've heard for a long time that Marshal Qin has a new butler, so it's you."
Wei Shi didn't notice anything unusual. After all, if he were in the same situation, he would probably be surprised to hear that the young man in front of him was a marshal's butler.
Once Ya Xiao had finished signing his name, Wei Shi was in front to guide Ya Xiao. Naturally, he did not notice Ya Xiao's puzzled expression behind him.
There was no problem with Geping's reaction.
However, Ya Xiao's intuition as a demon told him that things shouldn't be that simple.
Geping's frozen reaction didn't seem fake, but when he mentioned Marshal Qin, his eyes were somewhat familiar.
A bit...loving?
Ya Xiao recalled Qin Qi's elder, Wei Duo. Geping's gaze was similar to his when he looked at Qin Qi as if he saw the villain as his own junior.
Ya Xiao felt as if he had caught a clue to something.
In the original plot, the protagonist group found out that Geping might have been ordered by Qin Qi to destroy the building.
Yesterday, however, Qin Qi had acted as if he didn't know Geping well or even knew about this person. The relevant information and conclusions had only been reached after looking it up.
Ya Xiao could see that Qin Qi was not lying.
Qin Qi did not know Geping, but Geping seemed to know Qin Qi very well, and the relationship between the two looked a bit complicated.
According to the outcome of the plot, perhaps Geping would take the initiative to find Qin Qi soon. Then, the military academy building collapsed for some unknown reason, and the clues pointed to Geping and Qin Qi behind him.
Ya Xiao mulled it over, and it seemed to be strung together.
Although there were still a lot of unknown and even arguably contradictory parts of it, none of that mattered.
The demon's intuition told Ya Xiao that Geping had no malice towards the marshal, at least not at the moment. In that case, he had nothing to worry about!
It was at that moment that Wei Shi stopped and smiled at Ya Xiao, "Here it is."
Without further thought, Ya Xiao raised his head and curved his eyes at Wei Shi.
What did a weak old man like Geping have to do with the collapse of the military building? Did he have anything to do with "that lord"?
That made the demon very curious.
