The forest was dark and cold. It was hard for sunlight to pass through the dense leaves. Some branches broke and fell to the ground but it was left unclear. They laid horizontally on the paths, making it looked as though there were some wild beasts in the forest that broke the branches.
At first, Yao Jing was following Ye Jian closely. When Ye Ying pulled her sleeve, she turned to look at her. When she looked back, Ye Jian was gone. She glared at Ye Ying and gritted her teeth in anger. “Can you be bolder? Stop being such a baby.”
“Let’s go forward to take a look. I don’t believe she can vanish in front of our eyes.”
Well, it wasn’t that hard actually. Ye Jian just needed to climb a tree.
The broken branches on the ground caught her attention. They weren’t broken naturally. From the broken surface, they seemed to have been done by bullets.
She climbed on the tree to take a closer look. The branches had indeed been shot by bullets. What an interesting place. This kind of practice was more interesting than shooting target boards.
Climbing trees was a skill every sniper must be equipped with. Even Principal Chen said that her speed of climbing trees was fast. She could climb at least three meters in one minute.
Hence, it was easy for her to escape Yao Jing’s surveillance.
When she climbed down the tree, the two ladies had walked ahead of her.
Ye Jian smiled coldly. She didn’t stop them. Instead, she started walking back. The forbidden military grounds were not somewhere they could go to. If they wanted to seek a beating, she wouldn’t stop them. It was none of her business anyway.
Ever since Yao Jing scolded Ye Jian, she got closer to Ye Ying. She admitted her mistake in the principal’s office with a good attitude but she wouldn’t let Ye Jian go so easily. She was a proud person. If she scolded someone she shouldn’t, she would admit that it was her fault.
However, Ye Jian caused her to be humiliated in front of the entire school. Not only were the people from Class One talking behind her back, but her own classmates also did it too.
She even heard some ladies in the toilet saying that she deserved to be called to the principal’s office since she talked bad about the child of a martyr.
She was willing to apologize but she couldn’t be humiliated. Ye Jian must suffer the same fate as her. She must let Ye Jian embarrass herself too.
Ye Ying was a sensitive person. Besides being not very smart in terms of scheming, her ability to read people’s emotions were good.
They were starting to float apart, but because of Ye Jian, they started getting closer again. In other people’s eyes, their relationship got better.
The words ‘forbidden military grounds’ were clearly seen in front of them. No matter how bold Yao Jing was, she didn’t dare to enter this place too. She wanted to turn around but a soldier appeared out of nowhere and shouted at them. “What are you doing? Raise your hands! Turn and face the trees!”
Ye Jian was some distance away from them but she was able to hear Ye Ying’s shrill scream. She wondered if her “heart disease” would be triggered because of this. Ye Jian smiled and walked away with light steps. As for the fate of those two ladies, she didn’t care.
Since they were students, the two of them were released after five minutes.
“Didn’t Luo Ran look for you yesterday? Did he tell you anything? He knows many people. It’s impossible that he ran out of ideas.” After they came back, Yao Jing’s expression was eerily calm.
