Chapter 1843: Frivolous
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Xia Jinyuan didn’t hide anything, including the fact that Du Jiayi was asking about him. “There’s a major general keeping an eye on her. If she dares to do anything, she won’t be the only one who will suffer. Staff Officer Du will suffer too!”
Asking… about Captain Xia?
“Why is she asking about you?” This was Ye Jian’s main focus. Even her tone was much colder. “Why did she come to the border territory to ask about you? Where did she get the news that you’re at the border territory? Where’s her father?”
Captain Xia didn’t show up that night. If she knew that he was in the bordering town, it would have been a very serious matter! It was a big matter regarding Captain Xia’s safety in the country!
Xia Jinyuan had already witnessed Ye Jian’s sharpness. He wasn’t surprised when she asked him directly. He brushed away the white frost on her eyebrows and explained, “She doesn’t know that I’m training here. Do you still remember that year when we fought together at the Snow Region Plateau? I was on a mission at that time. Due to some reasons, I became an ordinary platoon leader of a territory. Staff Officer Du is familiar with the territory there. He only knew that I was a soldier who graduated from National Science University and entered the territory to serve.
“Madam Xiao learned from Staff Officer Du that I was serving in the border territory, so she asked Du Jiayi to come and find out about me. As for why she wanted to find out about me, I don’t want to know.” It wouldn’t be anything good, and he didn’t want to be involved in anything related to Madam Xiao.
Ye Jian was relieved. She was afraid that Du Jiayi knew that Captain Xia was training in the bordering town, so that was why she was asking around about him.
She also noticed that Xia Jinyuan mentioned Madam Xiao, his tone was especially cold and even contained a hint of disgust. Ye Jian knew who Madam Xiao was. Although she didn’t know why he had such an expression when he brought her up, Ye Jian was definitely on his side.
“Just ignore her. It’s not worth getting angry over someone you don’t like.” Her heart ached as she tried to persuade him. He had been planning and training for this period of time. Sometimes, he didn’t have time to give her lessons at night. He was tired enough, so he shouldn’t let his mood be affected because of someone he didn’t like.
How could Xia Jinyuan be angry because of Madam Xiao? He was just disgusted.
Affect his mood?
Ha, she didn’t have that right.
As they were talking about private matters between the two of them, they had chosen a quiet place to talk. Xia Jinyuan glanced around and confirmed that there were no comrades around. Suddenly, he bent down and kissed Ye Jian’s cheek. His thin lips curved up slightly into a wanton smile. “You guessed wrongly. You deserve punishment.
“I’m not someone who’s easily affected by others. Of course, this little fox in front of me is an exception. A small look from her or a small action from her can make my mood fluctuate.”
Indeed, it had not affected his mood. It could be seen from his indecent behavior!
After being kissed, Ye Jian glared at him. There was no anger in her eyes. Instead, she looked delicate. “You’re getting more and more mischievous. You should pay attention to your identity.”
“I do. I don’t dare to forget about it. However, I still have to relax occasionally, especially now that it’s our rest time.” Major Xia always knew how to balance work and rest. They left the highlands at night. Now, it was equivalent to taking half a day off to wait for the Army Aviation’s helicopter to arrive. Taking advantage of the rest time, he could take care of the stress he had been feeling for the past half a month.
The two of them weren’t alone for too long. Just like what Ye Jian said, they still needed to pay attention to their identities. Also, Xia Jinyuan had something to attend to, so Ye Jian left first to revise her homework.
Returning to school meant that she had to hurry up.
