He didn’t recognize Ye Jian immediately, until Ye Jian had said, “Thank you, and very sorry, we’re late.” Qin Xiu’s face instantly had an unconcealable astonished expression.
He knew the figure who was walking from the light was a female soldier, even standing amongst the rough mountain range, she had given him the visual sense of seeing the cold pride of an outstanding flower. She had suddenly rammed into his heart, making his heart and soul tremble before her.
Having never met, yet made his heart and soul tremble, that was something he had never experienced before.
Then now, her voice had suddenly floated into his ears; it was that familiar, so familiar that before she had finished her sentence, he had already known who she was.
Walking from the light, splitting apart the darkness, with such a sudden arrival, it had knocked on his heart’s door.
“Ye Jian?” He mumbled, his elegant voice had a hard to notice gentleness, “How did you get here?”
So it was her, a girl whom he had seen in Yunnan province once years ago, and felt that she was eye-catching, and after that, it was her who brought him with an incredibly awful sense of direction to his Uncle’s office.
Then after that, they accompanied a Head Leadership to Pakistan for a visit, because of a staff member’s mistake and only prepared a set of school uniform for her, after he was informed, she still tried to speak good things for the staff member, at that time, his answer for her was “preparing an extra set is being responsible for their own job,” the smart girl immediately understood, and stopped talking.
And now, seeing her at a time when he needed help the most, even if his heart and soul trembled for her, he would gladly accept that.
Qin Xiu was an excellent man who would never trouble himself since he was young, there wasn’t anything that would trouble him, looking at the pretty face which was smiling shallowly at him, the hardiness between her brows, her fearless delicate face, the smile on his face deepened.
The feeling of his heart’s door being knocked was so wonderful; he was really reluctant at putting her at arm’s length, mostly… Ye Jian, who was a girl who had caught his eyes.
The veteran who had been shoveling the snow walked towards them, and he didn’t hear Qin Xiu’s mumbled words; after walking over, he beamed at Ye Jian: “Good work brother. You guys came here quite quickly, it seems like you didn’t delay too much on the road!”
“And here I estimated the quickest you’ll get here was tomorrow, who would’ve known you would get here in less than ten hours, great work, great work.”
“Staff Sergeant, seventeen years in the army, Tibetan soldier. I’m Reporter Qin from the News Department.” After suppressing his surprise, Qin Xiu immediately introduced Ye Jian and told Ye Jian his current identity at the same time to prevent Ye Jian, who knew his true identity, from leaking his secret.
They were short on time after their members had gathered, they immediately started the rescue operation; that’s why they needed to firmly grasp the time spent chatting.
Ye Jian heard and gently nodded her head.
Just now, she had been guessing Qin Xiu was concealing his true identity to work more conveniently, and now she was extra certain, he was afraid she’d leak his secret, that’s why he immediately introduced his current identity as a reporter.
Noticing that, Qin Xiu couldn’t help but smile a very smart girl and could always make people smile at her subconsciously.
This was a liberal Tibetan soldier and a true to the core Tibetan; his Mandarin seemed slightly stiff and had an accent of the wilds; even the listeners could feel his cheerfulness.
Staring at the Tibetan soldier whose mood wasn’t affected by the avalanche and was instead feeling grateful, Ye Jian, who was in awe, saluted at him, “You guys are the ones who did a great work, very sorry, we have arrived late!”
A Staff Sergeant Veteran, even the unit’s Regimental Commander, would call him “Old Squad Leader,” Ye Jian didn’t even have a military year on her, so she should be even less rude.
