Ice cold, disdain… she dares, how dare she look at me like this!
Ye Ying’s emotions were bordering out of control; if it weren’t for Ye Zhifan pulling her back in time, she would’ve pounced towards Ye Jian in the following second.
“Ying Ying, it’ll be smooth sailing if you can endure it; for now, she’s trying to provoke you on purpose, don’t fall for it.” Ye Zhifan was also angry, but he knew to take care of the overall situation, with him present, Ye Ying would remain stable, “If you get angry, then she’ll be delighted.”
After finishing that quietly, he turned towards Ye Jian and said coldly: “You’ve just managed to climb up, and you’re already acting this arrogantly, Ye Jian, I’ll have to see how much higher you can climb up to!”
“I don’t need you to see how high I can climb to, and how high I can climb up has nothing to do with you.” Ye Jian ridiculed coldly, her well-contrasted pupils swept across the enraged Ye Ying’s face, the sneer in her heart deepened even more.
In her past life, she had spent more than twenty years of her life living like a bird that starts at the sight of a bow, the nineteen-year-old Ye Ying, you’ll still have to continue experiencing this.
Xia Jinyuan raised his arm and took multiple glances at his watch, as if having no more patience to spend keeping up with their charade, “Ye Jian, we can leave now; there’s no need to talk too much with them. Their morals have issues, their personalities have issues, even their bodies have issues, if they want to enter the military, just let them wait.”
After he was done talking, his phone started buzzing.
“Mhm, we’re still here, okay, coming out now.” The way he answered his phone call was as concise as usual; he lifted his eyes to stare at Ye Zhifan, then said: “Yes, we’ve delayed a bit of time, Ye Jian is right beside me.”
It was a phone call from Supreme Commander Xia; they were all waiting outside.
“It’s alright, there’s no need to worry; we’re coming out now.” Xia Jinyuan was saying while his gaze landed on Ye Zhifan, his thin lips arched upwards a little, and he revealed a very shallow smile, he said, “You’ve guessed right.”
No matter how light his gaze was, it still felt solid. After noticing the gaze, Ye Zhifan immediately looked at him and noticed his smile, and was able to discern a look of scorn from the shallow smile that disappeared in an instant.
Before he managed to figure out the deeper meanings, Xia Jinyuan gestured at Ye Jian, and the two of them moved past the Ye Zhifan father-daughter pair as they walked towards the outside.
Without doing anything, Ye Zhifan’s eyes shimmered. Underneath his scheming eyelids was a dark shade, he stared at Xia Jinyuan’s back while he said towards Ye Ying, who was pale from being enraged: “Ying Ying, let’s go.”
“Dad, she’s pushing us around!” Hating so much that her teeth were grinding loudly, Ye Ying was feeling both angry and wronged, adding onto her displeased feeling and jealousy, a cold atmosphere emanated around her, “And she still said things like you’re not suitable, or I’m not qualified, Dad, we can’t just let her off the hook just like this, this is definitely not enough!”
Ye Zhifan spoke up very calmly, “That’s why, Ying Ying, Dad will wait for you to grow up, and wait for the day you go and put her in her place. If you don’t overtake her, you will never be able to counterattack, nor will you be able to sweep away your past humiliations.”
Looking at his daughter, who only knew to act angry, who brought out her parents’ identity when trouble befell her, Ye Zhifan’s eyes contained a multitude of emotions, different, different, too different.
One grew up without the protection of parents, like a stem of wild grass that was capable of enduring snowstorms; the other one was like a flower cultivated in a greenhouse, can’t stand against the wind and rain.
Different, different, too different!
That’s why Ye Ying must definitely get into the military, and make her experience the rules in the military, breaking her away from his protection, and learn how to survive by herself.
Outside, Supreme Commander Xia looked at his bratty kid and amiably spoke to Ye Jian: “Are you still doing well, Ye Jian.”
“Thanks for Uncle’s concern; I’m doing fine.” Ye Jian answered extremely deferentially, and with a bit of demureness, “Grandpa didn’t forget to implore me that girls must know how to stay strong before he left; I won’t disappoint Grandpa.”
