Once you start speaking, you can speak more smoothly. Major Xia was a person who would hold up to his responsibilities. Since he wanted to apologize, he must apologize carefully.
He said whatever he wanted to say in his heart. He didn’t need to practice; he just spoke honestly, “As a man, I should take good care of my girlfriend. I should support you, protect you from hardships so that you won’t be hurt.”
“I’m sorry, little fox, this time I didn’t fulfill my responsibilities as your boyfriend. It was my fault. If you are not satisfied, just tell me, I will accept whatever punishment you have for me!”
……
Ye Jian, who always had a good understanding, instantly understood why he was so cautious. It turned out that… he was afraid that she would be unhappy because he had beaten her up so badly.
Seeing Xia Jinyuan acting so cautiously and worried, Ye Jian didn’t feel proud; instead… she felt a little heartache.
He was such a respected man, but, for her, he had lowered himself, carefully accompanying her, just so that she would not be angry. Ye Jian, ah, Ye Jian, you are lucky to meet such a man, how can you be willing to criticize him?
Ye Jian sighed lightly, still feeling a little distressed.
He had his position and his responsibilities to hold up to. As a captain, he had been on the battlefield and was the commander of the entire team.
He had to bring his comrades to the battlefield and use correct strategies and technologies to suppress the enemy, gain victory, and successfully complete the tasks they were assigned to. At the same time, he must ensure each comrades’ safety and minimize unnecessary sacrifices.
It did not mean that he had to keep an eye on his comrades all the time during the war to ensure his comrades’ safety; instead, it meant that he had to train his comrades seriously and supervise them strictly. He also needed to “be the example” and train together with his comrades.
As the captain, Captain Xia abided by the rule of “to train the team, the leader has to be trained well first.” Captain Xia actually trained more seriously and more toughly compared to his comrades.
He had no choice. He was the brain and the command core of the Elite Platoon. He played a decisive role in combat. During training, he must restrain himself and manage his comrades to achieve “comprehensive, accurate and quick” combat. That was why if he found anyone making mistakes, as a commander, he had no choice but to punish the person so that all comrades could return from battlefields safely.
Captain Xia was this kind of person. And yet, here he was, carefully accompanying her in the hospital. Ye Jian knew that he really loved her. He really loved her very much.
Hearing her sigh, Xia Jinyuan mistakenly thought she was considering whether to forgive him or not, so he suddenly felt a little nervous.
He squeezed her hands and tried a little more challenging. He still had some things that he wanted to say; he hadn’t said it, he had to say it all out, so he continued, “As your boyfriend, I haven’t done my duty to protect you, but the little fox, as a soldier, I must make sure that you learned your mistakes seriously.”
“That’s why I had to punish you; it is a punishment that you deserved. As your comrade and your captain, I must be strict with you. I must be strict and ruthless in punishing you if you make a mistake; I can’t show mercy just because I am your boyfriend.”
“Yesterday, they all said that my biggest mistake was to punish you personally. Then I thought about it. I would rather punish you myself than let others punish you. We are comrades, and we are also lovers. How can I let others punish you?”
“I think the two of us can last a long time, we can be happy together, and we can hold each other’s hands for a lifetime. I don’t want you or me to let go of the other party halfway; I don’t want any of us to walk alone.”
