The 3 B's- Beauty , Brains and Bravery 20 It had just started......

Rong Xinghe evaluated all the reports of the army situation , observed in the last twenty years after she was done with the meetings with Navy higher-ups.

She didn't looked impressed at all .

"What kind of joke is this ? Even though government has been giving such high finances to the army , why has its situation only deteriorated in these years . What has the former Military Chief been doing ?

"With the amount of capabilities and human capital we have in this country , why hasn't it been utilized properly. This is extremely disappointing ! " Rong Xinghe asked her assistant Shou Wu who was a bureaucrat as well and was pretty well-informed regarding the Country's Military administration.

"Military Chief , there have been happening many under-handed schemes in the military for quite a few years now . As glorified our army looks at the surface , it is completely shallow. Strong from outside , but empty from inside , thanks to former military chief Zhao . The finance that was provided to the army by government for its strengthening all used to go in the pockets of military higher ups.

"Each and every soldier joins the forces with complete faith in patriotism but these higher ups let their spirits die. As impossible as it seems , the almighty army of Country X has been corrupted by these monsters.

"It is almost impossible to stop these schemes to continue further . This whole thing has the complete system involved . Many politicians are a part of this. " Shou Wu clenched his teeth while reporting to Rong Xinghe.

"Hmmm . That explains the hostile etiquette of those higher ups of Navy in today's meeting . " Rong Xinghe laughed to herself.

Seeing her reaction , Shou Wu was confused . Shouldn't she be angry or something ?

"Mr . Shou" Rong Xinghe smiled and closed the documents on the table.

"What are the orders , boss ? " Shou Wu asked.

" Make a list of all the corrupt military officers and command the two hundred bureaucrats under me to make evidential reports of all the corruptions they have committed until now differently . Tell them to make sure that the confidentiality of the task is maintained." Rong Xinghe said.

" What are we gonna do with the list and reports , Military Chief ?"

"Easy ! The corrupt higher - ups will be fired on the spot . And , the minor people will be punished accordingly ..... maybe appointing them on the most dangerous borders of country X..... or maybe cut their salary for four-five months. You know we can't fire them all , otherwise , we will be left with no army . " Rong Xinghe said her mind .

" Fi ... fir...firing the Military higher-ups ?! " Shou Wu stumbled as he tried to digest what the boss just said .

" Yep ! Its high time military and whole country X accepts the fact that the tides are gonna change here , no matter what they want . Military is definitely the last place where i am going to tolerate corruption and schemes . I , Rong Xinghe , will never allow anyone to gamble with the lives of soldiers standing on the borders . These douchebags are not worth it .

" And if they think they are irreplaceable , they are highly wrong . Our country X has millions of population , a part of it serving in army . Many are capable to take these positions with dignity . " Rong Xinghe concluded with traces of danger clear in her voice.

Shou Wu gulped .

A chill ran down his spine.

This woman in front of him was definitely not to be offended ever.

She just took over the position , and terminating the higher - ups of military was one of the first few decisions she took.

She was very scary and fear or uncertainty was the last thing that could be seen in her eyes.

Ah ! Please save me lord !

But he was admiring her as well .The way she stood her ground and never let anything affect her conscience was immensely commendable.

" And one more thing , Mr. Shou ! " Rong Xinghe said as she stood up and walked towards her office window.

"Yes , Military Chief ?"

" Please schedule my meeting with Education Minister for tomorrow . It would be better if he shows himself here ."

"Alright . But why Military Chief ? "Shou Wu was confused as to what was the connection between Military and Education Ministry.

" Mr. Shou , you have a tendency to ask a lot of questions , i see . " Rong Xinghe smiled

" Apologies , Military Chief ! Your orders will be carried out . Anything else ?"Shou Wu instantly apologized.

"Not much . Just tell my schedule for the rest of the day ." Rong Xinghe started stretching as she asked .

"Ah ! Up next , you have a meeting with a businessman . Then , you have a meeting with the aeronautical and aerospace engineers regarding missiles. After that you would be off for the day , boss." Shou Wu listed out her other plans for the day.

" Hmmmm . Who is the businessman and when is the meeting? " Rong Xinghe asked as she picked up her tea cup and took a sip from it .

Shou Wu : "The businessman is Mr. Xi Yuan and the meeting is in two minutes."

As soon as Shou Wu's words left his mouth , Rong Xinghe spit out the tea .

What?

XI YUAN ?

Why he , out of so many businessmen in the world ?

Was he here for some revenge ?

No!

He didn't seemed so petty to mind something like that .

But he wouldn't be wrong if he was offended. After all , she called him 'bartender' in front of so many people.

From what she knew , he was respected by almost everyone , even his rivals and enemies.

No one looked down on him .

And she ?

She on the other hand must've committed a sin , in the eyes of all the admirers and well-wishers he had.....

Damnit ! ! !

She cursed herself under the breath .

But , she couldn't send him back. She was the military chief of the country and she had to face things sooner or later . Moreover , she couldn't go back on her words.

So let's just get over with this now.

She signalled Shou Wu to send him in.

But ....

...she was very wrong.

She couldn't possibly get over with it so soon.

It had just started.....
