3035 The Love Rivals Meet
Qin Xiu smiled. The Ye Jian he knew had always been so pure. She was so pure that every time he interacted with her, his love for her would deepen.
He liked her purity. She wasn’t pretentious and didn’t belittle herself. She always maintained her personality. That was how pure she was.
“Yes, you’re right. It’s normal to meet me at emba.s.sies.” Since she didn’t acknowledge his use of the word ‘fate,’ he wouldn’t push it either. He knew that she was a female soldier who paid attention to the distance between men and women.
This reply gave Amba.s.sador Qin Dingkang a better impression of Ye Jian, especially when he saw that she knew that he and Qin Xiu were father and son. Her gaze didn’t change at all from last night’s short interaction to today’s meeting. Amba.s.sador Qin Dingkang, who had always been strict with himself, had a high evaluation of Ye Jian.
Hence, when he noticed his son’s thoughts, he didn’t stop him. Instead, he accepted the discovery calmly.
Now, it was obvious that Qin Xiu was the one who was hot-headed. The female soldier who was talking to him was not interested in Qin Xiu at all. She was not interested in Qin Xiu’s family background either. There was no need for Qin Dingkang to say anything. He just watched quietly.
Qin Xiu didn’t ask Ye Jian why she was here. He knew the reason why. Hence, when he saw that Ye Jian was only eating steamed buns, he gave her his bowl of millet porridge. “You should eat some easily digestible porridge now. You can’t eat too many steamed buns for the time being.”
He was very thoughtful and concerned.
Ye Jian, who was a little hungry, put the steamed bun aside and thanked him. Then, she took a small sip of the golden millet porridge.
She and Qin Xiu had known each other for a long time. Their conversation wasn’t as distant as before. In addition, they had fought side by side in Lin Country before, so they were much more casual when interacting. It was a very comfortable interaction, so there was no need to pay too much attention.
Amba.s.sador Qin Dingkang took his time to scoop the millet porridge. When Qin Xiu looked over, he smiled meaningfully, making Qin Xiu feel a little awkward.
…
He had forgotten that his father was right here!
Amba.s.sador Qin Dingkang was already used to his son’s forgetfulness.
Lieutenant Colonel Xia, who had woken up, opened his eyes. His eyelids kept twitching. After looking at the time, he got up from the bed. Three minutes had pa.s.sed since he woke up, and he had already washed up and put on his clothes.
He knew which room Ye Jian was staying in. After knocking three times, he pushed the door open and entered. It was a single room. When he pushed the door open, he could see the furnis.h.i.+ngs inside. His gaze landed on the neatly folded blanket. Lieutenant Colonel Xia narrowed his eyes slightly and turned to go downstairs.
His eyelids were still twitching. He raised his hand and pressed it down a few times, but it was the same. Lieutenant Colonel Xia asked where the cafeteria was and strode forward quickly.
His little fox woke up half an hour earlier than him and went to the cafeteria to eat, but he didn’t accompany her!
Even if he rushed over now, the little fox should have already finished her breakfast. She would be preparing to come back to catch up on her sleep.
The cafeteria was not far from the dormitory. The dormitory was at the back. There was a small sports ground between them and a row of green belts. In front was a two-story European-style building.
After pa.s.sing through the sports ground and bypa.s.sing the green belts, Lieutenant Colonel Xia’s gaze became a little dark.
He saw his love rival talking to his girlfriend. He didn’t know what they were talking about. There was a deep smile on his love rival’s pa.s.sable face. The gentle look on Qin Xiu’s face made him want to rush over and cover it with mud.
