Chapter 756: I Want To Send You Off
When she went to Pakistan for her mission, the team members from the Xueyu unit, who were in charge of protection on the outskirts, sent off their comrades secretly. This time, she was going to send Xia Jinyuan off too. She was going to send her comrade, who worked together with her on the battlefield, off!
She ran really quickly. When she reached the lift, she noticed that one lift was still traveling up while the other was already on the fifth floor.
She turned and ran towards the fire escape stairway without any hesitation.
She felt thankful to Ye Ying for chasing her in her past life. Because of this, she developed a habit. She would look for emergency exits and fire escape stairways whenever she reached a new place.
Thus, with this habit, she was able to find the fire escape stairways immediately without wasting any minute!
The slippers on Ye Jian’s feet were kicked away by her. This was because she didn’t run down the stairs. Instead, she jumped… with one hand holding the railing. The action looked simple, but regular people wouldn’t dare, and wouldn’t be able to do it. In a blink of an eye, she managed to climb down many steps.
She dashed out of the fire escape stairways and scared a group of tourists who were preparing to take the lift. Imagine a person wearing a bathrobe, who was running furiously but without any sound at the speed of the wind, floating pa.s.s you like a white ghost. How was it possible to not scare people?
“What’s wrong with the management of your hotel? Elders will have a heart attack from this scare!” A shrill scream of a lady came from Ye Jian’s side. Ye Jian was focused on chasing after her comrade so she didn’t listen to the voice carefully. A thought just flashed past her mind. Why does this voice sound a little familiar?
She ran all the way to the lobby and saw the tall and slender figure walking out of the spinning gla.s.s door. There was a car parked outside. As he walked out of the door, the doorman of the hotel immediately opened the door of the back seat and bowed down politely to invite him into the car.
Ye Jian didn’t go out. She stood at a place where she could see him getting into the car and watched him silently, sending him off quietly just like those members of the Xueyu unit who were hiding in the dark in Pakistan.
Xia Jinyuan thanked the doorman and prepared to get into the car. Suddenly, his body froze. He turned around abruptly and saw the person who was supposed to be in her room through the spinning gla.s.s door. She was wearing a white bathrobe while standing in the lobby. She used her gaze to send him off silently.
She was barefooted. He didn’t hear the sound of her running even when she jumped down the fire escape staircases or rushed out of the door. That was because he was in the elevator when she was running down.
Ye Jian stared at the man who stopped moving because he detected her gaze. The sky was dark. The hotel on their lights outside the hotel to the brightest. The light had a warm tone. The man standing under the warm orange light was tall and straight like a tree. The face under the large peaked cap was handsome and sharp.
On his perfect and handsome face, there was a smile. His eyes, which were as bright as the North Star, was smiling too. Ye Jian smiled lightly. Her eyes turned into crescents. It was a warm smile.
He understood why she ran over. She always knew that he understood so she smiled.
The two of them stared at each other for only three seconds. Then, Xia Jinyuan moved his lips and said something. After that, he bent down and entered the car. He seemed to say something to the doorman, but because he was bending down, Ye Jian didn’t see it.
She only knew that he told her to take care of herself and nothing else.
There was no time for him to say anything else either.
