Principal Chen was taking out the rucksack from the truck. Suddenly hearing Xia Jinyuan’s voice, he quickly looked sideways and saw Xia Jinyuan bending down into the car.
He waved his hand to the soldier who hadn’t reacted in time, “Come, Little Ding, help me open the door upstairs, it’s been hard on you.”
In the car, Xia Jinyuan’s right hand was about to reach the back of Ye Jian’s neck so he could hug her shoulder and come out. His hand only made one movement, Ye Jian, who was sleeping soundly at the backseat, suddenly opened her eyes, the rays from the sun were too bright, and she narrowed her eyes, she said in an exhausted manner: “You’re here……”
She was startled awake. After seeing clearly who it was, she quickly shut her eyes and was no longer bothered.
Xia Jinyuan looked at the thin face which had fallen in a deep sleep in less than a second; his thin lips were slightly pouting. The seven days ‘escape from death’ training had made her lose a lot of weight; it could be seen from her face.
She had heavy dark circles; the lower part of her eyelids was bluish-black. The original, please blossom-like lips had a layer of pale and puffy skin; it was dry to the point of cracking. She was completely exhausted from head to toe.
Lifting her out of the car, he directly furrowed his refined brows.
Think, not ordinarily thin; she was much thinner, he could feel her bones in his hands.
”Principal Chen, I’ll carry her up first,” Xia Jinyuan carried Ye Jian, who had become much lighter as if she was weightless. There was inescapable distress in the black of her eyes. He had never accompanied her during training; he could only calculate her return date and hurry over, just to see if everything was well.
Facing the high-intensity training, he had thought of allowing her to relax a little, but once he recalled the cruelty on the battlefield, he will be suppressed by reality no matter how heartache he felt.
K7 was captured once; his body was injected with unknown fluids, which intensified the pain; he had rested for a whole three months after returning to the country!
Even male soldiers would suffer inhumane treatment, not to mention female soldiers!
No matter how much heartache he felt, he had to endure it.
At that moment, wafts of fragrant food could be smelled from each household, the lights of thousands of households dazzled the city. Xia Jinyuan gently placed her on the soft bed; he gently took off her jacket and then took off her muddy army boots and placed it on the balcony.
Principal Chen came in and saw Ye Jian asleep while covered by a thin blanket; he then looked at the tall figure getting busy at the balcony. He chuckled and shut the door at his own initiative.
Major Xia really cares about Lass Jian. Every time Lass Jian finishes her exhausting training, he would rush over to accompany her; he would also ease her emotions and carefully point out Lass Jian’s shortcomings.
With such a person taking care of Lass Jian, he and Old Uncle Gen were feeling at ease.
The thousands of households outside were brightly lit, but not a trace of light could enter Ye Jian’s room after the curtains were drawn, let alone any sound, only two long breathing sounds could be heard from within the darkness.
Xia Jinyuan rushed overnight from the grassroots unit. When his car drove halfway, he encountered a landslide blocking the only path heading towards the city; he asked a soldier to turn around on his own to drive back to the unit while he carried his luggage and climbed the dangerous landslide with his bare hands, he walked more than forty kilometers to the city overnight.
He departed last night and only arrived at the provincial capital at six in the evening today; he didn’t stop for a single minute. He drove the car Xia Yiwei had prepared for him and rushed to the school; he finally waited for Ye Jian’s return at 7:20 at night.
The two raced against time and could finally lie on the same bed to rest. For Xia Jinyuan and Ye Jian, it could be considered to be in a relationship.
