Also, this kid had just teased him deliberately to make him worry.
Having that thought, Commander-in-Chief Xia picked up the military cap that he took off and put it on the desk, and after catching up quickly, he slapped his son on the back of his head, pretending to be angry, “You idiot, you just tried to scare me just now, right?”
“Heh, I was just sitting and thinking about the problem; you were the one scaring yourself.” Xia Jinyuan laughed loudly, then put his arm around the Commander-in-Chief’s shoulder with one hand, “You first, old man.”
After stepping out, Xia Jinyuan let go. The image of the two in the military department must be paid attention to.
But Ye Jian, who was sitting in the car, didn’t pay much attention to it. She watched her father, who insisted on driving and also told her to fasten the seat belt. Her eyes were full of warm smiles. She was not tired anymore.
This was her father. No matter where she went, she would always be his little girl, a little kid that would even forget to fasten her seat belt.
“When we’re home, wash up and have a good sleep. Don’t think about anything; sleep well and regain your energy.” Father Fu, who hadn’t slept for the entire night, picked up his daughter home for the first time. He was so happy that he didn’t feel sleepy, “Have some breakfast first when we get home, then go to bed. It’s a good way to restore your energy. I won’t call you up for lunch later, but I will heat up your food, so you can have it whenever you’re awake. It’s okay if you have to sleep until the next night. What’s important is to regain your energy.”
Seeing Ye Jian walking out just now, Father Fu saw at first glance that his daughter’s face was extremely tired, and the dark circles under her eyes were very dark. Without asking her about her comrades, he immediately drove her home.
Sleep. He must bring her home now so that she could have a good sleep.
“How many vacation days do you have after completing this task? Do you have three days off?” Father Fu kept talking, showing no means of stopping.
It had been 21 years for him to realize that he had a daughter. He had too many things to say and too many things to ask. He just wanted to get to know his daughter Ye Jian now.
Ye Jian listened patiently. She chuckled upon listening to her father’s words, “Father, I don’t have off days. I have to go back to school tomorrow night at the latest to catch up with my classes the next day.”
Back to school? Catch up with classes the next day?
Father Fu, who was caught off guard, suddenly stepped on the brake, causing Ye Jian to fall forward but pulled back again by the seat belt.
Realizing that he had frightened Ye Jian, Father Fu’s face changed anxiously, “Are you injured? Are you hit?”
“No, no, I’m fine, don’t worry about it.” Ye Jian replied quickly. She knew why Father Fu stepped on the emergency brake. Before asking any more questions, she took the initiative to explain, “I forgot to tell you. I am still a freshman. I am currently studying at the National University of Science and Technology, and my major is a command.”
“So, I have to go back to school after my seven-day May Day holiday. Tomorrow…No, today…Today is the last day of my holiday. I have to go back to school.”
Father Fu lifted the brakes and drove the car forward again. He was a little bitter after listening to his daughter’s explanation.
“I have failed too much as a father. I don’t know anything about my daughter’s past. I’m such a failure, really such a terrible failure.” He repeated, full of bitter grief.
Ye Jian smiled and said, “After I learned about my past life, I once hated you deeply. I hated you for abandoning my mother and abandoning me… But not now, because I know that if you knew my existence, you’d surely be the best father.”
“Father, we still have a long time to understand each other. You need to understand me, and I also need to understand you.”
