“No, there’s no need for that. I’ve already caused you much trouble. I just want to take a walk outside. The smell in this room is giving me a headache. My chest feels stuffy too. I can’t sleep even if I want to.”
At the start, Teacher Xiao was gratified. However, when she continued listening, her expression changed. This student was threatening her with her heart disease.
Ye Jian had already reached the door when she heard what Ye Ying said. She turned and sneered at Ye Ying who wanted to chase after her. Her cold gaze moved down from Ye Ying’s face to her neck. She saw the beautifully braided red string... her smile turned colder.
Ye Ying followed Ye Jian’s gaze and lowered her head. When she saw what Ye Jian was looking at, she got a huge shock and quickly turned around. She was frustrated.
This piece of jade... Ye Jian mustn’t see it!
A soft click of the door was heard behind her. Before her frustration disappeared, Ye Ying turned angry. She spoke to Teacher Xiao impolitely. “I just want to take a walk. Teacher Xiao, are you not going to allow me from walking around?”
This was extremely rude of Ye Ying. Ye Jian smiled brightly when she heard Ye Ying’s frustrated and furious tone. She glanced at Major Xia who was still here. “The person inside will rush out soon. You should leave now.”
“I believe that you’re not scared of her even if she rushed out. Why do I feel that you... actually hope that she will come out?” Xia Jinyuan felt that it was fun to block someone’s path. He took a few steps and caught up with Ye Jian who was walking at a fast pace. His gaze landed on her face. He saw the slightly stern look and the anger in her eyes. “Since you want to kick her away, there’s no need to think too much now.”
“I heard your teacher saying that her parents will come over soon. You should know that I have investigated you before so I checked on Ye Zhifan and his family along the way. His wife is a bully. If she comes, she will most likely kick up a big fuss.”
He didn’t just investigate Ye Zhifan’s family casually. He did a thorough investigation.
Ye Jian glanced at him and pursed her lips. “I’m not afraid that she will make a commotion. In fact, the bigger the commotion, the better. However, this issue will stop at Ye Ying. His daughter already did something stupid once. Ye Zhifan won’t allow his wife to be stupid too.
Ye Zhifan would definitely stop anything that could affect his family’s reputation.
Xia Jinyuan knew this since he investigated Ye Zhifan before. He pondered for a moment before saying, “Ye Zhifan has some skills. The person behind him hides well too. Little Fox, your current attitude is fine. Ye Zhifan won’t dare to do anything after knowing what happened today.”
As a politician, he wouldn’t attack someone whom he didn’t know much about.
It was very late so Ye Jian wouldn’t go back to her class for dinner. She followed Xia Jinyuan to the military unit and entered the cafeteria through the back door. Then, he started scooping rice for Ye Jian. His actions appeared as if he had done it many times. After that, he served out three side dishes and one soup. “I asked them to save some food for me. All the cafeterias in the military taste the same. There’s nothing to pick on.”
“You’ve already cooked the food. What else can I do?” Ye Jian took the plate and the two of them started eating in the small kitchen of the chemical defense regiment.
There were no candles or flowers. There was no music too. They only wore the same camouflage uniform and ate from the same plate.
