Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Commander Xia understood what his guard was trying to say. He was reminding him that the age gap might seem big now but in the future, it would be alright.
40 years old was the prime age for a man. This was the time his career would be at its peak. At this age, if his wife was at her prime age too, it would be a very strong combination. There would be no relations.h.i.+p problems between them too.
“It’s good but I’m worried that youngsters are too hot-blooded and will break down whenever they want to. Let’s wait and see, wait and see.” After remaining silent for a while, Commander Xia sighed. He turned his head and saw his son lowering his head and talking to the young lady. His expression was so gentle that Commander Xia was stunned.
This expression… in his memory, he never saw such an expression on his son’s face before.
“If you’re in the car, I’ll feel more frightened. I’ll be more at ease if you’re not on the car.” Ye Jian intentionally kept her distance with this dangerous man who came to fetch her. But he just stuck closer to her even more. Commander Xia was still in the car. Couldn’t he restrain himself a little?
If Commander Xia wasn’t in the car, she would want to run away as soon as possible.
How could Xia Jinyuan let her keep her distance from him? If he wanted to bring his wife back home, he needed to start preparing now. He lifted his thin lips at a handsome and casual angle. “If I’m in the car, you can always look for me for help. For instance, if Commander Xia asks you how you met me, I can help you answer it.”
…
Ye Jian was flabbergasted by the bomb he threw at her!
She controlled her urge to run in a different direction form the car as well as the urge to punch him in the face. She spoke her words slowly, “Are you telling me that you told Commander Xia about our relations.h.i.+p?”
“Of course. At your side, I can’t reveal my ident.i.ty. If I have to hide my ident.i.ty at home, I will really have no sense of security.” Xia Jinyuan silently retracted his right hand which he placed behind her thin waist. At first, he thought that she would stumble from the shock so he could make use of this chance to protect her. However… she walked really stably. She didn’t get frightened by his words.
Ye Jian didn’t see his actions. But, the guards walking behind them saw everything clearly. All of them had followed Commander Xia for at least five years so they had some understanding of this Young Master Xia. Hence, when they saw this, they calmly s.h.i.+fted their gaze away.
There was a rumor that when the young master was 12 years old, he would torment all the soldiers he met in the courtyard. None of them were able to escape this fate. But the guard’s team was lucky. When they came, the troublesome Young Master had already ‘turned over a new leaf’.
Ye Jian felt that she didn’t even have the energy to walk anymore. “You know that you can’t reveal your ident.i.ty too? Why did you say it out then? Also, when did I ever make you hide your ident.i.ty? Don’t you always look for me in school whenever you want to?”
“You came to find me during military training too. Is this called a hidden ident.i.ty?”
“I can still come and find you like this. If I become the person who holds your hand, I will have to hide my ident.i.ty.” When Xia Jinyuan decided to advance, he would do it vigorously. He had never been in a relations.h.i.+p and never chased any woman before but the soldiers’ handbook told him that he must be aggressive and decisive.
The little fox he liked was too sly. There wasn’t any chance for him to do things slowly. Look, someone had already written love letters to her when he acted slowly!
