We must believe in him…
Ye Jian stared at the island that was getting further and further away, and the figure who was growing smaller and smaller, she slowly retracted her gaze, her voice was light as she told Roadrunner, “I know we must believe in him, My heart just… aches for him.”
He wasn’t a deity; he also needed someone to care about him; her heart aches because he had faced so many difficulties, heart aches for him because no matter what he was going to do, it was him who was charging at the forefront.
He wanted to protect her, but she… also wanted to protect him!
Roadrunner detected something odd, but he couldn’t put his finger on where the oddity was; Blue Bird’s heart aches for Q King? Why does that seem so weird to his ears?
For a moment, Roadrunner didn’t know what to say to continue the conversation.
But he knew that currently, Blue Bird still wasn’t completely relieved and was still worried for Q King, who was about to face the military arms dealer by himself, from the island all the way till they reached the harbor, Roadrunner had been talking about what Xia Jinyuan had done in the military, and while on missions, each and everything mentioned were events where they brushed shoulders with the God of Death, and every event had made Ye Jian’s heart feel shocked.
“Q King had told us with his ability, besides him, nobody else could take on the role of Captain in the Elite Platoon. He is the Captain; each word he says is an order for all of us; besides obeying his orders, we do not have any other choice.”
“No matter how much your heart aches for him, it’ll still be useless; you can’t stay back to accompany Q King, no matter how worried you are, it’s still in vain, you can’t extend your hand over there to help him. However, Q King isn’t fighting alone; J5 and the others weren’t in the base; they might be on the same mission as Q King.”
He had already said so, Blue Bird still couldn’t feel relieved, but she really couldn’t help it.
Although he really didn’t know whether or not J5 and the others who weren’t in the headquarters were really on the same mission as Q King, he could only say that to console Blue Bird.
Crane, who was steering the speedboat, noticed that Roadrunner had gone through his vocabulary, yet Blue Bird still wasn’t relieved, with his brows knit together, he bellowed: “Blue Bird, we are also on our own mission, before we escort the engineers back home, our mission still remains. You can’t get distracted because of Q King’s appearance, understand?”
“You have your own mission; Q King has Q King’s mission, we should each finish our mission as best as possible; that is the best consolation for everyone.”
His words made Ye Jian’s heart grow cold; that’s right before they manage to escort the engineers back home, her mission still remains!
That was an extremely large mistake; she had been affected by her own personal feelings!
Realizing that fact, Ye Jian’s face turned pale; how could she set her mission aside because of personal feelings?
Captain Xia had once told her very clearly, in the battlefield, he and her were no longer lovers. Instead, they were comrades; they cannot, must not affect the battle situation because of their personal feelings.
How could she forget his teachings? How could she let his hopes down!
“I’m sorry, it’s my fault!” Ye Jian admitted her faults sincerely; she was now a soldier on a mission, not Captain Xia’s girlfriend, she mustn’t be affected by her own personal feelings!
If she had made the mission fail because of personal feelings, let’s not talk about how Captain Xia would despise her, even if she herself would despite herself.
Her apology had received Crane and Roadrunner’s lenient smile.
“You aren’t at fault, no matter who it was; if facing something like this for the first time, they wouldn’t feel okay. It’s very normal; your heart aches for Q King, to be honest, our heart aches for Q King as well. However, as Veteran soldiers, we’re even better at concealing our emotions and know even better what a soldier should be like!”
Crane comforted Ye Jian like that, each and every word he said was sincere and wasn’t just to brush her off.
