“The school leaders will arrive at Anyang Railway Station at 8 o’clock. I will ask my dad to pick them up, and then they’ll all come here with a friend’s private jet.”
Water was flowing out of the water faucet, and the rushing sound seemed to obscure his voice. Ye Jian threw cold water on her face. Her heart seemed to have shattered into pieces.
This was Grandpa Gen’s last wish. She wanted to arouse Grandpa Gen’s will to survive, but the old man knew in his heart…he really couldn’t make it.
“I will let Grandpa see my most spirited side.” Drying the sweat on her face, Ye Jian raised her bright eyes, and looked at herself in the mirror for a moment, “I will definitely not disappoint Grandpa!”
The face in the mirror was tough and the eyes were also tough. The jet-black eyes were like a black shining stone in the clear water, and the corners of the mouth were slightly tightened, a trace of stubbornness revealed on her face. Although her facial features were beautiful, they were not at all delicate, and even her eyebrows contained the bitterness of a soldier.
This kind of Ye Jian was exactly what Old Uncle Gen wanted to see.
At eight o’clock, the two leaders of the military academy were led by guards to join Commander-in-Chief Xia. Their expressions became more solemn when they saw him.
Carrying a military travel bag equipped with Ye Jian’s military uniform, they saluted the Lieutenant General with the glittering gold star on his epaulettes, and rushed to Fujun Town by a private helicopter at 8:37 a.m.
The helicopter needed to land on the training ground of the recruit assembly camp. When the helicopter hovered over, the sound of the “boom boom” propeller made the residents of the town look up to the sky, pointing and talking with curiosity.
Ye Zhifan stood on the side of the street, his increasingly deep eyes were filled with gloom, and his gaze fell on the private helicopter that began to fly low.
His daughter who had been staying in Shui Kou Village called him, and said that Uncle Gen was sick, so they dispatched the army helicopter. At that moment, he knew how respectable that old man who dared to scold him was.
After leaving the army for so many years, he could still be deeply concerned by the army… He was definitely not an ordinary veteran!
The reason why Ye Jian became better and better, was because of the help of such a capable old man, that was why she had the courage to leave the Ye Family and to face the Ye Family!
Realizing that he might be able to make friends with such a senior military general, Ye Zhifan settled his work and hurried back to Shui Kou Village, just to see the arrival of a certain senior general, and he would use his title as the representative of Shui Kou Village to do all he funeral preparations for Uncle Gen, so that he could have a chance to meet the senior generals.
Ye Zhifan, who had returned to the village only a few days, had managed to get the villagers to sincerely recommend him to go to the hospital to visit Uncle Gen on behalf of all the villagers.
The first day he went over, he was blocked by Principal Chen before he even entered the ward, but he didn’t give up. He continued to go to the hospital early. It was the fourth day. Looking at the descending helicopter, his gloomy eyes smiled.
These three days of waiting was worth the wait!
Commander-in-Chief Xia immediately jumped off as soon as the helicopter landed. With only one guard, he walked in stride, causing the two military academies leaders to start trotting.
“Dad, you guys have to hurry! Take the motorcycle if you must! Old Uncle is awake, you have to hurry!” Xia Jinyuan squeezed the phone and said with a deep voice: “The military doctor said,… this is probably the last time he will be awake!”
