Chapter 1705: Nothing To Do With Romance
After confirming that he hadn"t done anything that would cause others to misunderstand, Li Jinnian lowered his voice. "Commander, Ye Jian and I can be comrades, but we can"t be friends or lovers."
"… You"re making me so angry that I want to jump off the plane!" The commander-in-chief of the navy wanted to play matchmaker when he thought about how the two of them were so compatible with each other and how Ye Jian could handle the Li family"s matters with her ability. "Why can"t you guys become lovers? Do you not like Ye Jian?"
Li Jin smiled, "Commander-in-chief, think about it. Maybe Ye Jian doesn"t like me? There are thousands of men in the world. There are many who are more outstanding than me. Since she"s capable and educated, she can find a better boyfriend.
"What do I have? I don"t have anything now. Why would she like me? Commander, you can"t just ask me to chase after her. You have to get Ye Jian to agree to it as well.
"Moreover, I really only admire her, and it has nothing to do with romance. I don"t have the time to talk about romance either. You gave out a military order to train our Storm Commando into the strongest maritime special forces that dare to compete with the Western maritime special forces.
"You"ve also given me an order to hold me accountable for not achieving any results. Commander-in-chief, the task at hand is not to find a girlfriend but to lead our team to become a special battle team that the country can trust."
This time, Li Jinnian finished his sentence in one breath. He didn"t give the commander-in-chief a chance to interrupt him. "Give it a rest. Don"t mention this again. It"s impossible between Ye Jian and me. There"s no chance."
He couldn"t tell the commander-in-chief that Ye Jian had Xia Jinyuan by her side. Their relations.h.i.+p was still a secret. Even if he knew about it, he couldn"t say it out loud. He could only tell the commander-in-chief this.
The commander-in-chief of the navy frowned at his firm tone. He looked at him with his sharp and dignified eyes. "You really don"t want to chase after Ye Jian?"
"Really! If I have a woman I like one day, I"ll definitely take action and tell you."
"No, don"t tell me! I only admire female soldiers like Ye Jian." The commander-in-chief of the navy waved his hand dejectedly. He was no longer interested in his beloved general"s personal feelings. He paused for a moment before continuing, "I just wanted to let Ye Jian stay in our navy unit. However, you don"t want to do it, so the possibility has been reduced."
"By the way, have you asked her? Is she considering staying?"
"She told me clearly that her goal is to join the Xueyu unit. She just wants to be a special forces member. She didn"t even consider the navy," Li Jinnian replied honestly. Since the commander asked, it was better for him to answer truthfully.
He didn"t want to have any misunderstandings with Xia Jinyuan. Since everyone was fine now, he wanted to make things clear beforehand so that they would not hurt each other"s feelings. He wanted to cut off all the bad seeds.
There was no misunderstanding and no indifference. In the future, they could still hand their lives over to their comrades.
The commander-in-chief of the navy sighed again and again. Nothing seemed to be really working out.
"Old Yang, Old Yang, I really admire you. I truly admire you."
Seeing this, Li Jinnian changed the topic. "Next up is desert training and alt.i.tude training. Commander-in-chief, I"m worried that our team members will have alt.i.tude sickness, so I plan to prepare more medicine. We also need oxygen tanks with us, just in case."
