4445 The Other Side 414
Gong Jie looked at him expressionlessly and then said casually, “Wrong. They’re allies.”
Gong Shaoying’s seemed shocked, but he quickly regained his composure. He knew in his heart his son’s ability to adapt to changes, and this was what he was most proud of as well. No matter how dangerous the situation was, he could turn things in his favor.
“My son never disappoints me!” He gently patted his shoulder. “However, in a place like East Africa, you have to be careful.”
By now, Gong Jie was fully armed. He was dashing in his combat uniform and a military trench coat, but his silver hair had been dyed black.!!
Only at this point did Gong Shaoying realize, his son was now a high-spirited man.
At 1.9 meters, the young man was actually much taller than him. Was it because the young man had grown taller? Or was he getting older and had slowly shrunk?
“Do you think people will become shorter as they get older?” Gong Shaoying wanted to ease the tense atmosphere before departure, so he changed the topic and remarked half jokingly.
Gong Jie shot him a cold glance. “Don’t make such a silly joke.”
“Ha! Alright, I won’t joke anymore.” He pursed his lips and suddenly went forward to give his son a big hug.
Even the young man was stunned. Ever since he was a child, his father’s concern for him had always been reserved and left unexpressed. This was the first time his father had taken the initiative to hug him! It made the young man appear awkward.
He turned around uncomfortably and cleared his throat. “What are you doing? It’s just a send-off. It’s not like I’m not coming back.”
“I’m just afraid that something will happen to you and I won’t be able to see you again,” he said sourly. Then, he pretended to wipe his tears away.
Gong Jie looked at him even more icily. “You seem to be hoping that I won’t come back?”
“Says who?”
“Then why do I feel like you’re putting a curse on your son?”
“As a father, of course I want my son to be well. How can I possibly hope that my son won’t return?”
Gong Jie was speechless.
“Alright, leave now! I’ll wait for your return.”
The young man nodded and gave him a hug before turning around to board the armed freighter.
Before boarding the freighter, Vermillion Bird nodded at Gong Shaoying in greeting.
Gong Shaoying called out to her. “Vermillion Bird.”
“Yes.”
“I’ll hand Xiao Jie over to you, keep him safe.”
It made Vermillion Bird feel a little honored that Gong Shaoying would take the initiative to talk to her. She immediately lowered her head and said firmly, “I’ll definitely do my best. Even if I have to sacrifice my life, I’ll bring Young Master Jie back safely!”

It was a 12-hour sail from Hurricane Island, through the Hexagon Straits, and across the Atlantic Ocean to East Africa. However, this was the shortest and fastest route.
East Africa faces the sea and has a port that is still well protected. But because of the war, several airports in East Africa had been greatly damaged, and flights to various parts of the world had been completely stopped.
At one point, the airport was completely paralyzed. Many evacuations took place through the only port, Port Sofia.
The Hurricane Group also had troops stationed in East Africa.
