2645 You’re Wrong
‘You don’t have to worry about this. Your daughter will graduate and enter the military unit in a few years. I won’t have a child so early.
‘However, I’m not sure about what will happen after eight or nine years. I might have a child.’
Ye Jian suppressed the laughter in her heart. It was especially hard for her to hold it in. Especially when she remembered what her father said about her captain. “Our daughter’s captain isn’t an easy man to woo.” She used her nails to dig into her palms tightly. Only then did she suppress the laughter in her throat.
‘Dad, you’re worrying too much. That’s not a problem at all!
!!
‘The son-in-law whom you think is not bad has already become your future son-in-law.
‘However… since you said that it’s not suitable for me to date now and you’re against it, I’ll hide it from you for the time being. When the time comes, I’ll ask your son-in-law to tell you directly.’
Ye Jian felt sorry for Captain Xia again.
Although he had left a good impression on her father, he thought that Captain Xia was not an easy man to woo. He even saw Captain Xia’s cold expression while she herself was smiling like a pure flower.
When did Captain Xia become so cold to her?
Ye Jian recalled how she interacted with her man at the airport for less than half an hour. She didn’t see his cold expression. There was only… a shamelessness from wanting to cling to her.
‘Indifference? Dad, you must be mistaken.’
Mr. Fu had already ended his conversation with his deceased wife. He carefully placed the marriage application report back into his pocket. When Ye Jian heard the rustling, she quietened down. The corners of her lips curled up slightly, and she fell asleep peacefully.
From the capital city to Xiang City, it took around two and a half hours. By the time they reached the school, it was almost 1 am.
Mr. Fu sent Ye Jian directly to the main entrance of the military school. He raised his head and looked at the towering school gate under the lights. He smiled and said to Ye Jian, “I came here once six years ago. There are two engineers under me who came from your school. At that time… I didn’t expect that I would send my daughter to the National Science University one day.”
He felt emotional and happy.
Ye Jian was elated too. This happiness could be seen on her face. It felt different to have her father accompany her to school.
“Hurry up and go in. I’ll pick you up at the door on Friday.” Mr. Fu tidied Ye Jian’s clothes happily and helped her to straighten her soldier cap. “Hurry up and go. Hurry up. When you go back to the dormitory, be quiet. You shouldn’t disturb your roommates.”
The military had already known when Ye Jian would be returning to school. The sentinel at the school gate saw Ye Jian’s student identification and saluted her before letting her in.
Mr. Fu’s eyes turned red again when he saw his daughter walking into the school. He waved his hand and smiled. “Go, go. Have an early rest.”
She was his and his wife’s only daughter. She was smart, outstanding, and exceptionally beautiful. What was rare was that she had a good personality. As her father, he didn’t have to worry about her.
In the blink of an eye, more than 20 years had pa.s.sed. His interactions with his wife were still vivid as if they happened yesterday. His daughter’s growth told him that he was old and his wife was gone… More than 20 years had pa.s.sed. All that was left was endless sorrow.
Ye Jian had already walked past the school. When she looked back, she saw Mr. Fu standing at the door and looking at her from afar. Although his face was blurred, she knew that her father’s gaze was still on her.
Ye Jian waved her hand again and received a reply from Mr. Fu. Then, she quickened her pace and entered the school.
Mr. Fu couldn’t see Ye Jian anymore, but he didn’t leave immediately. He stood there for at least ten minutes before leaving and checking into a hotel not far away from the road.
