At this moment, Ye Jian’s expression was very interesting. She hadn’t come out of her sorrow yet, but Father Fu had already begun to venture into another theme, and this theme… was so outrageous!
“Hong Mei, our daughter, has good taste, but I’m afraid she will suffer. You’ve never seen her, Captain. He’s a very energetic young man, a rare young man. Although I don’t know what military rank he is, judging by his abilities, he should be a Major or Lieutenant Colonel. If he was a little older, he should be a Senior Colonel.”
“You have to persuade our daughter. It’s hard to chase her, Captain. He hasn’t fallen in love at 26 or 27 years old. This means that he is a young man who can withstand temptation and is determined not to settle down so early.”
“Our daughter is very shy. Last time, I joked with our dad that he would hold her in one hand and carry her brother in his arms in a few year’s time, and her little face was already red. If she has to take the initiative to chase her Captain, I’m afraid it will be difficult for her.”
“Having a crush is uncomfortable. I have to persuade our daughter. Our daughter’s Captain doesn’t seem easy to chase. I will persuade her to either move on from the crush or… only chase her Captain after graduation. She is still young. I also don’t approve of her going after her Captain.”
“Furthermore, after she graduates, her Captain may already be married and even have children. Our daughter has principles; she will definitely be able to let go. At that time, I will introduce a few good men from the army to her and let her choose slowly. Then, she can just forget about her crush.”
“The Commander-in-Chief said he wants his son to be at least 35 or 36 years old before getting married. How is that possible? His old man will surely be the first to disagree. Never mind the later events, how can he accept that his grandson will only get married after 8 or 9 years? Our daughter is still young, so there’s no problem for her to get married 8 or 9 years later. But her Captain might already have two children by then.”
“At that time, oh… why, why do you think our daughter has a crush on her Captain? I was so heartbroken when I saw them earlier. Her Captain was cold all the time, but our daughter just lowered her head and smiled like a lotus bud. I pity our daughter. It’s too…”
Too…what?
Father Fu stopped speaking. The reason why he thought that Lieutenant Colonel Xia could be a potential son-in-law was that he had never been in a relationship before, which meant he had turned a blind eye to the women around him.
But this matter really made him worry a bit. He wanted to find a chance to talk about it, but he was afraid that Ye Jian would feel awkward. But if he didn’t talk about it, he was afraid that Ye Jian would suffer in her one-sided love. Father Fu was really in a dilemma for a while.
The tears on Ye Jian’s face, who was listening to the whole conversation, were still not dry. She tightened and loosened her fists repeatedly once again.
It was because of sadness before, but this time…she was simply amused.
She had to admire her father, who could make a person cry and laugh in just five minutes. She was enduring her laughter really, really hard now.
Tears overflowed from the corners of her eyes again. This time it was not sad tears, but tears of laughter that couldn’t be controlled.
She really didn’t know how her father thought she had a crush on… Major Xia. Oh, how could he have such a misunderstanding?
Crush?
Father, you really guessed wrong. Your daughter and her Captain had long been in love. Their relationship had also been approved by Commander-in-Chief Xia, and he had already become your future son-in-law.
Yet, there you were, saying that you wanted her to move on from Major Xia, who might already be married and have children in 3 or 5 years…
