Chapter 1045: You Who Protects The Country
Once the pa.s.sionate period was over and their mentality got more and more mature, they would realize that this lady wasn’t suitable for them.
As she was saying this, she sounded sad and tired. While she was persuading him, she was convincing herself to give up her seventeen-year relations.h.i.+p too.
Other people might not know what kind of lady they wanted when they were 23 years old because they matured too late. They only started maturing at 23 years old and started thinking about their future at 26 years old. Maybe at 30 years old, they would finally understand what kind of wife they want.
But, he was different. He started becoming mature when he was 14 years old. At 17 years old, he started thinking about his future, and at 20 years old, he knew what kind of wife he wanted!
At 23 years old, he could say with confirmation that this young lady who was walking towards him naturally was the partner he wanted for life! That wouldn’t change until his death!
“It looks like you didn’t do too bad on your exam. Your mood isn’t affected.” As he opened the car door, Xia Jinyuan smiled and said to the girl that he wanted to spend the rest of his life with, “You had the aura of a king returning to his country.”
Ye Jian replied in a mocking tone after she got into the car. “I’ll prefer it if you say that I’m returning in triumph.”
“That’s right. Returning in triumph is more suitable for you.” Xia Jinyuan smiled. He preferred this phrase too. He liked returning in triumph with his comrades for their missions every single time.
After getting into the car, he didn’t start the engine immediately. He told her his plan first. “We will go to Mount Dalang first. The maple trees have turned yellow now. We can climb the mountain and admire the scenery.”
Then, he turned his head and looked at Ye Jian with a deep and gentle gaze. There was a hint of seriousness in his deep voice. “I’m back, Little Fox. I didn’t miss the chance to enjoy the yellow maples with you together.”
“Actually, I’ve already thought about this before. If we miss the chance this year, we can watch it next year. If not, there’s the year after that. One day, you will accompany me to see this mountain of Autumn scenery,” Ye Jian replied to him in a serious tone. Her beautiful eyes had the resolution no other girls had. “I will definitely wait for the day to come.”
Since she had already decided to date him, she would use 120% of her sincerity when interacting with him. No matter what the future looked like, she would be sincere when they were dating. She wouldn’t be even a little perfunctory.
She had never dated for both her lifetimes but she understood that sincerity was important in a relations.h.i.+p, especially when she was interacting with a comrade like him. She mustn’t take it casually.
Ye Jian knew what Xia Jinyuan sacrificed for her. She remembered them in her heart. She had never dated before so she was like a child that just started learning how to walk. She was working hard earnestly.
She didn’t want to disappoint him or make herself regret.
Sincere words were always heart-warming. The gentleness in Xia Jinyuan’s eyes turned into a pool of water. It seemed to be seeping out of his eyes.
His little fox didn’t know how to coax people but she knew how to say things that moved his heart. She always touched his heart unexpectedly and made him want to hug her tightly. He didn’t want to say anything. He just wanted to hug her silently and he would feel extremely happy.
Ye Jian couldn’t help but smile when she saw Xia Jinyuan. Her eyes turned into a crescent and she stretched her hand out. “Welcome back, my comrade.”
His heart was still palpitating. The young major lifted his hand and clenched his fist. He lightly b.u.mped Ye Jian’s fist and smiled as he said, “I’ve recovered my ident.i.ty and my mission is completed. Little Fox, I’m here to take my military uniform back.”
At this second, Ye Jian’s eyes turned red. Tears started filling up her eyes.
For their country’s sake, the young major in front of him was willing to sacrifice the fact that he might not be able to recover his ident.i.ty even if he dies after becoming an illegal mercenary so that he could execute a decapitation strike overseas.
