1887: Acknowledging The Family

Acknowledging The Family

After taking a few sips of hot tea, Ye Jian's body was no longer stiff. She said politely and appropriately, "Commander in Chief, thank you for worrying about Uncle Chen when he was sick. If it weren't for your timely arrangements, Uncle Chen might not have survived."1

"You don't need to thank me. This is what the military should do. He nurtures talents for the military, so the military should do our best to save him. Fortunately, he survived the ordeal safely. Otherwise, it would be our greatest regret."

Xia Jinyuan acted as a guest. He looked at the girl he liked with a gentle gaze. He watched as she turned from nervous to calm. Her sexy lips were slightly raised.

Her taking this step for him meant that she had acknowledged him and was willing to treat his home as her own.

From now on, his home would be hers. It would be their shared home.

"After considering his situation, we finally arranged for him to go to the sniper training base in the Southern Province. He'll be specially hired as a veteran and enjoy the benefits of being in the army. Of course, his personal information is still classified and won't be transferred to the Military District of Southern Province.

"And you can also be at ease. You don't have to worry about your family. Just focus on completing your studies."

The guards were standing outside the living room, and there was no one else around. Ye Jian relaxed and faced the various questions from the highest-ranking leader.

After talking about Principal Chen, Commander Xia asked about Ye Jian's studies. "You won't be staying in the capital city for long, right? I remember that the National Science University will be having their exams soon. How's your revision going? Did you have to miss your studies because of training?"

Commander Xia's intention for Ye Jian's visit this time was for her to acknowledge her family. He didn't have any intention of testing Ye Jian. Hence, he openly asked Ye Jian questions.

Ye Jian smiled and replied seriously, "My revision is going fine. Captain Xia taught me a lot during the training. I've finished revising all the important parts. I'll rush back to school tomorrow morning and take the exams the day after tomorrow."

She went through 45 days of training after leaving school on the 12th of December. There were only three days after the training ended before the exams. It was the day after tomorrow.

Hence, she had to return to school tomorrow morning.

"A military academy is different from a high school. Your academic results are ranked second, while your physical fitness score is ranked first. Although you went through 45 days of training outside, I believe that with your ability, you can achieve good results in both academics and fitness."

Commander Xia knew that Xia Jinyuan would spare some time to tutor Ye Jian every day. He couldn't help but nod his head secretly. It seemed that the brat in the family knew how to treat his wife better than he thought.

When they started talking about studies, Ye Jian gradually relaxed. Commander Xia made suggestions like an elder in the family. At the same time, he was also concerned about whether Ye Jian had any difficulties. If she had any difficulties, he would ask her about them. Over an hour passed quickly.

They arrived at the compound at three o'clock, and in the blink of an eye, it was already past four o'clock.

Commander Xia, who didn't realize that time had passed quickly, was still earnestly advising Ye Jian. "You have a lot of room for development. In the future, you have to continue steadily just like you're doing now. You don't have to worry about Principal Chen. I'll be having a small meeting with the Southern Province. I'll hire him to return to the army and let him teach a group of snipers to be as powerful as you."
