The old Sir was a broad-minded old man who had never done anything evil. He was born with a kind heart. From his kind and gentle eyes, one could tell that he was a kind man.
Facing the difficulties that his only granddaughter had suffered, the old Sir sighed with a smile, “How are you bothering me? Come on, talk to Grandpa about what difficulties you have encountered? Don’t worry, you can talk to me slowly. I’ll listen.”
At this time, the old gentleman had already guessed why Ye Jian was looking for him.
That was why he always felt that adults’ matters should be handled well. Otherwise, the kids would be the ones to suffer in the end.
As Xia Jinyuan said, the old Sir had already guessed Ye Jian’s avoidance of her mother’s topic long ago. At this moment, seeing that she even locked the door of the study room consciously before talking to him, the old Sir already had the answer in his heart.
It seemed that the truth was really something he was afraid of.
When Xia Jinyuan ended the conversation with Ye Jian, he saw his old man wearing his usual summer short sleeves top, walking through the field, and everywhere he walked, he received military salutes and good morning greetings.
The old man rarely appeared in the field casually, and he was also in such a hurry. Xia Jinyuan quickly walked out from behind the camphor tree holding his phone.
“Lieutenant Colonel.”
As soon as he walked out, he heard the guard’s voices; he turned his head, looking over, “My dad is looking for me, right? I saw him already. You may go do your work.”
Xia Jinyuan motioned to the guard to leave first, then he went to his old man.
The Commander-in-Chief’s guard was not an ordinary guard. He had found Xia Jinyuan standing behind the tree making a phone call earlier, but he did not interrupt him until he finished the call.
The back of Commander-in-Chief Xia, who had walked through the entire field, was already soaked in sweat, staining large pats on his green military shirt.
Seeing Xia Jinyuan, whom he had been searching for nearly half an hour, finally appeared, Commander-in-Chief Xia’s face became ugly, “What are you doing? You have your phone in your hand, and yet you ignored my calls?”
Xia Jinyuan then only remembered that he hadn’t turned off the special settings in his mobile phone, which blocked incoming calls. Seeing that the Commander-in-Chief wasn’t looking good, he quickly turned off the settings, smiled, and said, “Why are you looking so angry? Do you want me to comfort you?”
Facing Xia Jinyuan, who was still playing the fool and not being serious, the Commander-in-Chief actually didn’t feel too angry; in fact, he could still remain calm. It was probably that he was already used to his son’s attitude. He really had to let his son have the credit.
After taking a deep breath, Commander-in-Chief Xia said coldly, “Little Ye is going back to school tonight. As a boyfriend, you’re still walking around casually in the field here. What do you think you are doing? Huh? Yet, you said you want to leave a good impression in front of your future father-in-law. Look at you now; what good impression can you make!”
Upon hearing this, Xia Jinyuan felt a little unusual. He immediately sprinted towards the house, “You are right to criticize. Walking around on the field really won’t give a good impression to my future father-in-law. Looking at your expression, you actually made me figure out a solution, but I’d have to trouble you.”
There must be a way for him to see his Little Fox later. Otherwise, his old man wouldn’t have come all the way to the field without even changing his uniform and receiving greetings from everyone.
Commander-in-Chief Xia had been keeping the lowest profile ever since he returned to the compound. Whenever he came out for a walk, he would wear casual clothes. One time he squatted under a tree in his casual clothes and looked at a colony of ants with relish. A soldier, who had just been transferred, noticed him squatting down under the tree motionlessly for a while. Then, he went over and actually treated him as an ordinary old man that snuck in from outside and gave him a serious lecture.
The Commander-in-Chief also didn’t make things difficult for the soldier. He actually even let the soldier send him out. After walking out, he called his guards to have them pick him up.
