1890: Something Happened

Something Happened

"They don't really have a close relationship with me. Han Zheng is one of my close friends and you've met him before. There are a few others who are in the satellite, research, or business fields. Some of them have even gone overseas. I'll introduce them to you when we get back to the capital."1

Now that everyone had grown up, it was inevitable that they would part ways. Although they were separated, their relationship with each other did not falter. Instead, it deepened.

They understood each other and had the same mindset. Naturally, they could be brothers for life.

Commander Xia was talking to the butler of the old residence on the phone. "Don't let her in next time. I'll talk to her. I'll go back to visit Old Madam in a few days."

They talked for three to five minutes before hanging up. After changing into casual clothes, Commander Xia asked the guard to call the two people who were out for a walk to come back.

As the two had already walked for a while, they came back before the guard could go out to look for them. They pushed the door open and entered while chatting happily. They saw the commander in chief in a dark blue coat standing in the living room. When he saw the two of them enter, he smiled and said, "I was just about to get the guard to look for you two."

Although he was smiling, Ye Jian could tell that he didn't look too good. He must have been angry just now. There was still anger between his eyebrows.

The commander in chief wasn't wearing a military uniform now. Even though he was only wearing casual clothes, his military aura couldn't be concealed by them. Moreover, he had a sullen expression on his face. His aura was so strong that it made people feel pressured.

Ye Jian glanced at the man beside her. Seeing his natural expression, she felt more at ease.

Commander Xia, who was still angry, smiled. "Little Six, go and drive the car. We won't be bringing the guards today. It'll only be the three of us."

Xia Jinyuan, who seemed to not have noticed anything, looked at his father and said, "You're already old. Don't think that you're still very young. You should pay attention to the things people your age should pay attention to. It's windy outside today. You should bring a scarf with you." He asked a guard to go to his father's room and take a scarf down.

In the past, the father and son often got into fights. Now that the father had grown old, the son had grown up as well. Although they were always at odds with each other, they were still affectionate in their own ways.

Ye Jian loved a family that was filled with warmth. Looking at the scene in front of her, the smile in her eyes bloomed like flowers. She was full of joy. As for the unhappiness just now, it was like a stone thrown into a pond. It became calm again after the ripples.

"You're getting more and more meddlesome." Although the commander in chief was complaining, the smile in his eyes couldn't be hidden. He looked at his son who was half a head taller than him and then looked at the girl who was smiling behind him. He sighed softly. "This family finally looks like a family now."

It was not good to be lacking a mistress in the house. It was too cold.

Xia Jinyuan took the scarf from the guard and put it on for his father. He said calmly, "You've always had a family. I don't think there's anything different. Now with Ye Jian around, you'll have grandchildren soon too. Your family will become more lively every day."

"…" Ye Jian's lips twitched slightly as she stood behind him. He was already thinking about giving birth to a child.

Commander Xia loved what he had just heard. He patted Xia Jinyuan's shoulder with some might. "All the best. I'll be waiting for the good news from you two." His ex-wife, Madam Xiao, was a topic he couldn't talk about. Forget it, it was fine if he didn't talk about it. There was no need to spoil his fun.

There were similarities between the father and son. Ye Jian finally knew what the similarities were. They were people who were quicker to think about the bigger picture than others.
