How do I feel about Major Xia?
Ye Jian could sense that something was wrong.
Could it be that Dad noticed something?
Impossible. She and Major Xia didn’t do anything that could cause her father to misunderstand. They also didn’t do anything romantic. It should be impossible to notice anything.
Then why did he ask such a question?
Ye Jian’s heart twisted and turned; this question… was tough to answer.
If she answered honestly… it would simply mean that she had directly confessed her relationship with Major Xia.
If she lied… would it make her father misunderstand her more?
As clever as Ye Jian was, she was speechless.
When Father Fu saw that she hadn’t answered for a long time, he became more certain of the guess in his heart. His daughter really had a crush on her Captain. She didn’t answer him because she was too embarrassed to answer it.
Well, he couldn’t blame her. A girl would always have her own little secrets. Besides, she was still young, and the management of the military academy was extremely strict, so he shouldn’t interfere in her affairs.
He only knew his daughter for a few days. He didn’t understand many things about his daughter and her life habits. He shouldn’t ask about such personal matters for now so as not to make things awkward.
“I think he is a good Captain. I can tell from your mission last time that he is a very capable young man. I have no other intentions; I’m just simply asking.”
Father Fu felt that he was too impatient. He didn’t wait for Ye Jian to answer; he just went on, “I heard from your Commander-in-Chief that your Captain plans to get married at 35 or 36. It’s still early now. He is only 26, right? It’s at least another 8 or 9 years before his marriage.”
“Men should put their careers first and get married late. Oh, your school also doesn’t allow students to be in a relationship, right?”
What Father Fu didn’t know was that instead of calming Ye Jian’s heart, his words made Ye Jian’s heart jump even faster.
Her intuition told her that… something had made her father suspicious, but she really couldn’t guess what was that something.
Because she had kept a proper distance from Major Xia from beginning to end and didn’t make any small gestures in front of her father… Ye Jian really couldn’t guess what her father was thinking for a while.
“The school doesn’t have a direct and explicit rule saying that we can’t fall in love, but it is something that everyone knows and also keep in mind.”
Ye Jian was secretly embarrassed when she said this. She did remember it in her heart, but her actions… Well, her actions had already violated the rules.
Fortunately, her relationship did not affect her homework and training. Otherwise, it would really ruin her future.
Father Fu nodded thoughtfully. He was rest assured.
Through less than 72 hours of getting along, he could see that his daughter was very self-control and quite humble. Although she had gone through hardships, she was still as bright as the moon.
His daughter was not raised by her parents, but because she had so many kind-hearted people taking care of her, he could have such a wonderful daughter today.
She was humble, capable, open-minded, polite… He could see all the goodness from his daughter.
Hong Mei, can you see it? Our daughter is so good and perfect. If only you could see it with your own eyes.
“You are an opinionated child. I am relieved…very relieved.” Father Fu patted the back of Ye Jian’s hand lightly, “Have some rest. I will call you when we arrive.”
He didn’t want to let Ye Jian see his sadness. He quietly sighed to himself.
However, as a special soldier, Ye Jian had a very keen hearing. Although his sigh was soft, she could still hear it.
