3045 Because It’s Her
Qin Xiu rarely talked to his parents about personal matters. He was a little unaccustomed to his father’s straightforwardness.
He cleared her throat and said, “I’ve actually known her for a long time. I knew her when she was still studying in Uncle’s school. At that time, she was only in her second year.”
…
This time, it was Amba.s.sador Qin Dingkang’s turn to adjust his sitting position. Did this mean that his son started liking the female soldier when she was in grade eleven?
Just now, in the cafeteria, he saw that she was wearing the military uniform of a military school student. That meant that she was still studying in a certain military school. Her age was about the same as what he guessed. She was around 20 years old.
She was around 16 or 17 years old in senior high. She was so young, but Qin Xiu had already liked her?
Amba.s.sador Qin Dingkang picked up the thermal cup on his desk and took a sip of hot tea to hide his shock.
“Don’t think too much. At that time, I lost my way at Uncle’s school. She sent me back to Uncle’s office. She was still so young. She was still a senior high student. Don’t think of me as a beast.” Qin Xiu explained when he saw this.
‘Beast Xia,’ who was having breakfast, expressed his innocence.
“After that, we met on and off. I suddenly realized that I had a good impression of her after encountering an avalanche on the other side of a snow mountain one time. When we were most helpless and in need of help, she came alone from the snowy peak with a bright light. Dad, at that time, I actually thought that I might be buried in the snow until my entire body was frozen stiff. I thought no one would discover me, but she came bringing hope.”
He recalled the time when Ye Jian appeared in his vision.
The figure that stepped on the light was like an ancient sword that broke out of the ground and rushed into the night. With a snow-white light, it instantly split open the darkness in front of him at a time when he couldn’t see any hope. It allowed him to see hope and the future.
Just like that, the woman, whom he had known for many years and had only met a few times, barged into his heart. He fell hopelessly in love with her.
Qin Xiu had never told his family about these things. As his father, this was the first time Amba.s.sador Qin Dingkang heard that his son, whom he was proud of, had encountered an avalanche. Even though it had been so long and his son was still sitting in front of him, he couldn’t help but feel his heart palpitate.
As it turned out, the female soldier that the generals of other countries praised was also his son’s life savior.
It was just that…
Qin Dingkang frowned slightly. He thought of his wife in the capital city. “Did you mention it to your mother? It’s such a big matter. You should mention it. Also, where is that lady from?”
“She’s from Anyang. I heard my uncle mention her family situation. When she was young, her parents died early. Her mother is a martyr, and her father was an honest farmer.” Qin Xiu didn’t feel that there was anything wrong with Ye Jian’s family situation. He liked Ye Jian, and it had nothing to do with her family.
He also knew why his father asked this.
Hearing this, Amba.s.sador Qin Dingkang sighed softly in his heart. “Although this is the first time I’ve met her, I like her very much. She’s capable and talented. I have a very good impression of her. Also, she saved your life and is the savior of our entire family. But Qin Xiu, just the fact that she saved your life isn’t enough for your mother and grandmother to accept her. Qin Xiu, what do you plan to do?
“If it’s just dating, let me give you a piece of advice. Don’t make things difficult for a good lady. If you want to get married, you have to face the problems in our family. You can’t let such a good lady suffer because of this.”
