Chapter 1005: Ye Jian, You Don’t Have To Rely On Anyone
“Even if you don’t tell me, there will naturally be someone telling me about it. I was shocked when Commander Xia called me. I was even more shocked when he agreed to your relations.h.i.+p.” Speaking of his conversation with Commander Xia, Princ.i.p.al Chen was still in disbelief.
That year at the depopulated zone, he knew that Captain Xia was interested in Ye Jian. Because of this, he purposely talked about the Xia family and said that their backgrounds weren’t compatible. He hinted that Commander Xia most probably wouldn’t allow his son to date a female soldier with no background.
Who knew that… Commander Xia didn’t oppose their relations.h.i.+p. Instead, he was delighted to see it happening. He even discussed with Principle Chen and told him not to stop the two youngsters and let nature take its course.
Ye Jian controlled her emotions and took a huge gulp of water. The water was only slightly warm now. She cleared her throat before saying, “I am together with Captain Xia now. However, I told him that the earliest we can confirm our relations.h.i.+p is after I graduate from senior high.”
“I met Commander Xia too. On the last day of the military training, he partic.i.p.ated in our inspection parade. I sat in the commander’s car on the way back. My relations.h.i.+p with Captain Xia…” Under Princ.i.p.al Chen’s teasing, Ye Jian’s expression was extremely awkward. She forced herself to continue speaking. “The commander-in-chief didn’t oppose our relations.h.i.+p at that time. However, he said that we needed to be more aware since I’m still young.”
Her face had turned completely red when she said this. She felt like a child who got discovered by her parents when she was secretly dating. She felt helpless.
Princ.i.p.al Chen was teasing Ye Jian but he still remembered the important affairs.
Ever since he received the call from Commander Xia, he thought of finding a time to ask Ye Jian about this matter. Since Ye Jian came to look for him and brought up this topic herself, it made things easier for him.”
“I know that Captain Xia was interested in you when we went to the depopulated zone for training in the past. At that time, he didn’t hide it from me. He said that he was compatible with you and also said that he was a soldier that would fight for the glory of his country his entire life.”
“At first, I didn’t agree with your relations.h.i.+p but when I heard this sentence, I decided to wait and see. Now, from the looks of it, Captain Xia is indeed a responsible man as well as an outstanding soldier. Uncle Gen and I will feel at ease if you get together with him.”
Ye Jian was a little stunned…
In the depopulated zone, Xia Jinyuan had already revealed his intention to Uncle Chen. No wonder… no wonder he said that Uncle Chen wouldn’t oppose their relations.h.i.+p. He had already mentioned it to Uncle Chen!
“Indeed, he is an excellent soldier. I’ve learned and understood many things from him too.” Ye Jian had a high opinion of Captain Xia. A soldier that fights for the honor of his country his entire life… That was the kind of soldier he was.
“He’s very outstanding. Girl, that’s why…” Princ.i.p.al Chen raised his head and retracted the smile on his face slightly. His gaze was stern and cold. “Because of that, you need to work harder. You’re not working harder because of him. You’re doing it for yourself. He’s someone who’s compatible with you. Similarly, you must become a lady that’s compatible with him!”
“You don’t have to rely on his existence or use his glory for your survival. You s.h.i.+ne with your own radiance and stand in this world using your own capability. You don’t need to rely on anyone. That is what Uncle Gen and I hope to see.”
Xia Jinyuan was too outstanding. If Ye Jian didn’t want to be covered up by his radiance, she needed to work harder. The two of them were like two stars in the galaxy. They didn’t rely on each other for existence. They shone brightly on their own!
“Don’t worry. Whether I’m together with Captain Xia or not, I’m still Ye Jian. The Ye Jian that doesn’t need to rely on anyone!” She was still her. She wouldn’t change because of a boyfriend with a distinguished status. She wouldn’t stop moving forward because of him either.
