This gesture left the group unsure how to react. In the end, they all turned to look at Lin Jingjing.
Lin Jingjing stood to the side, a dumbfounded expression on her face. 'What in the world happened while I was unconscious?'
Receiving their helpless gazes, Lin Jingjing stepped forward. She cleared her throat and said, "Admiral He, you don't need to apologize to us."
"We failed to follow your orders on the battlefield. It's more than enough that you haven't punished us for our mistake."
As she spoke, Lin Jingjing gave him a formal salute. The other four quickly followed suit.
"And I haven't even thanked you yet. If it weren't for you, we would have all been killed by those mutant beasts," Lin Jingjing explained.
He Shian watched them, a flicker of emotion stirring in his ice-blue eyes.
He hadn't expected them to thank him instead of blaming him.
This made He Shian feel that what he had said the previous night was even more deplorable.
