Chapter 1341: I Will Forever Love Her

“You will see it. You will see it. The leaders of our school will be here soon. They brought my military uniform. Have a good rest. Your granddaughter will wear her military uniform for you to see.”

She tried her best to smile as tears rolled down her cheeks. “You will definitely be able to see it.”

She wanted to smile as she spoke. She wanted to speak lightly. However, her voice trembled when she spoke. Every sentence she said was filled with reluctance.

Uncle Gen sighed softly and looked up with some effort. He saw a few familiar faces around him and smiled. “It’s been hard on all of you. I watched Ye Jian grow up. She’s a… a good child. She has a good heart and is kind. She knows how to repay kindness… In the future… please… everyone… take care of her for me.”

“Uncle, you don’t have to be polite with us. We are Ye Jian’s family. We will take good care of her. Don’t worry.” Commissar Yan was on the left side of the bed. He bent down and held Uncle Gen’s hand. He looked at the respected Cla.s.s A Master Sergeant who seemed to have exhausted all his energy. His eyes turned red. “Don’t worry about Ye Jian. She will be fine with us around.”

Ye Jian was the person the old man worried the most about when he was on his deathbed. He didn’t have much energy to speak. He glanced at the familiar faces and finally landed his gaze on the young man who was hugging Ye Jian with one hand.

Xia Jinyuan hugged Ye Jian’s shoulders tightly and walked to Uncle Gen’s side. “Uncle Gen, I recognize Ye Jian as my lover and wife. As long as you agree to my marriage with her, I can propose to her immediately after she graduates and settles down.”

He knew what the old man wanted to hear. He said it word by word and expressed his thoughts firmly. “I will forever love her, dote on her, and take care of her like a treasure. I swear on my reputation as a soldier that I will never let Ye Jian down.”

“Good, good, good.” Uncle Gen was so relieved that the corners of his eyes were wet. His life was worth it. Looking at the hands of the two youngsters clasped together, Uncle Gen felt his eyelids getting heavier. “Good child, Grandpa… will… look… at you… from the sky. Be a good soldier. You must be… a soldier with… use. A soldier who can… fight… protect our… motherland, protect our… home.”

Ye Jian nodded her head furiously. Her tears flowed out like a broken string.

A deep and authoritative voice came from the door of the ward. “Old squad leader!” Commander Xia, who ran from the first floor to the third floor in one breath, strode in. “Ye Jian has become a military student in our country. Her military uniform and the relevant doc.u.ments are here. Old squad leader, you have trained such an outstanding soldier for our military. You have worked hard!”

“On behalf of the military, I salute you!”

The soldiers around the sickbed stood up straight as Commander Xia spoke. Together with him, they saluted the old revolutionary who had dedicated his entire life to the country and the people.

Uncle Gen blinked gently. He smiled and raised his hand to salute the soldiers.

This was his favorite military unit and the young soldiers he liked the most. He was happy to see them again before he left.
