When the stiff-faced Ye Jian heard that, she couldn’t help but to start laughing, she teased: “Captain Xia, you really know how to make ties with people, but don’t you call that too early, what if your Father-in-Law doesn’t like it?”
“I’ve already passed in Grandpa’s eyes, so my Father-in-Law definitely wouldn’t mind!” Xia Jinyuan was extremely confident, and he did not expect his future Father-in-Law that he was calling so happily today, was going to make him go through so many hardships in the future.
Seeing that, Ye Jian’s smile turned deeper.
He had always been paying so much attention when it came to her, and would always think with her in mind, and had always completed preparations one step ahead of her, a Captain Xia like this could always make her feel extremely happy.
Putting the bag she had set aside on her lap, she then tugged at Xia Jinyuan’s sleeve from under the bag; the couple exchanged a glance, Xia Jinyuan smiled as he extended his arm and grabbed her hand that was extending from underneath the bag.
It was just a relationship, and it was just holding hands with his girlfriend, yet they still needed to act so sneakily.
Ye Jian was worried that the soldier who was in charge of driving them to the airport would see them; Xia Jinyuan understood what she wanted, so he just let her be, as long as she’s happy.
The soldier drove the couple to the airport; after arriving at the airport, Xia Jinyuan went to a store that sold the local specialty and bought a notebook and a pen; only after boarding the plane did Ye Jian realize his intentions.
The plane departed on time; not long after it ascended into the clouds did Xia Jinyuan pass the notebook and pen to Ye Jian; he smiled: “Take a look.”
The airplane was fully seated, and the couple — one wearing a military uniform, the other wore a Cadet military uniform, even if they were sitting together, they must behave themselves, and must make sure to pay attention even while speaking, as they could not say or do anything that would damage the image of a soldier.
Ye Jian smiled as she took the notebook; after she opened it… she closed it immediately, her jet-black pupils glared at him for a moment.
“My offering last night wasn’t successful; for that, I express regret.”
Only this sentence was written in the notebook, Ye Jian only glanced at it, and now her ears were starting to burn.
Her hand subconsciously started to touch her neck… at least it was still early spring when they returned to the Academy and would wear the overcoats that were handed out by the Academy. If it was in the summer… there was no way to cover the hickey.
Xia Jinyuan saw that the smile on his handsome face beamed at her, he took the notebook from her hands, and after his pen moved about for a while, he passed it back, “Take another look.”
“Can I not look?” Ye Jian cleared her throat, and glanced at the travelers across the aisle out of the corner of her eye.
They were seated in the Business class two-row seats; it was good that nobody was beside her. Otherwise, Ye Jian would maintain her image that even her facial expressions appear extremely serious and would refuse to have a chat with the man beside her.
Xia Jinyuan shook his head with a smile, “No, you can’t.”
After taking another look, Ye Jian’s lips that she pretended to purse started to raise uncontrollably.
“So beautiful that my heart is restless and whimsical.”
His writing was very vigorous; his starting stroke was very elegant while his ending-stroke had its edge, each turning stroke had an expansive meaning, writing embodies the man, all of them were great qualities.
Ye Jian’s handwriting was also very beautiful, elegant, and promising; each word was pretty. She wrote: “Captain Xia’s figure is very nice; it makes my heart restless and whimsical. Unfortunately, his hand started shaking and sullied the mood.”
You want to tease her? Then let’s tease each other!
She wrote with a serious look, then passed the notebook.
Xia Jinyuan opened and took a look; the smile in his fathomless eyes deepened, not using her voice, and started using the pen instead… She’s getting quite bold and straight-up exposed to his dark past.
The plane had three and a half hours of journey, in that three and a half hours, the two of them were communicating the entire time with pen and paper, there were no flagrant actions, their dalliance to-and-fro, as well as the honeyed words between couples, were all going through pen and paper, in this way, it was also an interesting way of being together.
By the time they got off the plane, the notebook was already half-filled.
