Under the platform, after Instructor Huang shouted, “Salute!”, the students from Second Year Class One raised their hands and saluted. All their gaze was fixed on the reviewing platform. The people on the platform, including Commander Xia, had to salute back to the students that greeted them.
Ye Jian was standing in the row closest to the reviewing platform. She lifted her hand and saluted. When she looked towards the reviewing platform, the first things she saw were the unfamiliar faces of the leaders she didn’t know. Then, she saw Xia Jinyuan who was saluting her. He was wearing a peaked cap and he looked so handsome and elegant, he seemed like an immortal on the moon. She noticed the smile in his eyes and when she looked over, he purposely reminded her to look at his right with his eyes.
When she looked over, Ye Jian’s soul almost flew out of her body in fright... the gold and shining epaulets, the military aura that was stronger than any other people... Commander Xia was looking at her intently!
Her heart pounded furiously. Ye Jian tried her best to control her breathing and appear natural on the front. She didn’t mess up her steps either. She maintained her composure and walked passed the reviewing platform calmly.
The distance between them wasn’t wide. It was only around three meters. Thus, Commander Xia naturally noticed the small changes in Ye Jian’s expression. Ye Jian had lived for two lifetimes but this was the highest-ranking officer of the military. He was much older than her and his experience and knowledge weren’t something she could match up to.
After Ye Jian walked past, Commander Xia spoke to his son calmly, “She seems to recognize me.”
“I think she knows you. The day before yesterday, at night, we accompanied the Head back. I gave her our house number so she called me that day but I was bathing. You took the call and from then onwards, she didn’t dare to call our house again.” Xia Jinyuan put down his arm but the smile on his face didn’t disappear. His smile made him looked even brighter than the sky in the day when they weren’t any clouds. “Don’t misunderstand her. Even if she knew who you are, it doesn’t mean that she laid her eyes on your status.”
“Also, I forgot to tell you that I have decided on my wife. The crucial point is... the wife I decided on haven’t agreed to be my wife. I need to woo her. I don’t know if I will be able to succeed in wooing her, Dad.”
Commander Xia felt like reaching for his gun again. Didn’t this mean that everything he said before was nonsense? He even said that he would take action! What kind of action was this? The other party hadn’t even agreed. It was just a one-sided love from his irritating son.
He can’t even deal with his wife! How dare he say that his taste is better than me?
No matter how bad my taste was in the past, I still managed to leave behind a good offspring!
However, he had to admit that he felt relaxed. He thought that he was really in a romantic relationship with an adolescent but fortunately, everything was just empty talk. The lady hadn’t even fallen in love with him. Not bad. This lady has good willpower. This is worth complimenting.
Commander Xia wasn’t the kind of person who would only allow her son to marry the lady if he liked the lady. He didn’t care about the status of their families too. His son’s wife belonged to his son. As his father, he didn’t need to like her!
As for the family’s background, the Xia family didn’t need a lady to support them. It was a man’s job to make contributions and accomplish great tasks. Why did he need to rely on his wife?
Commander Xia felt at ease once he knew that everything was still in progress. The results were unknown too. Thus, a small smile appeared on his stern face. “As long as the lady hasn’t fallen in love with you, I’ll feel at ease.”
“The lady has good willpower. The Head never analyzed a person wrongly so this lady must be really good. I don’t care what you want to do but there’s one thing I have to emphasize. If I hear anything about you seducing a young lady in my military unit, you can be prepared to eat bullets.”
