2606 Warm Fatherly Love

Also, this kid must have teased him on purpose just now to make him worry.

At the thought of this, Commander Xia took his military cap off and placed it on the desk. He chased after his son quickly and slapped the back of his son’s head. He pretended to be angry and said, “b.a.s.t.a.r.d, were you trying to scare me just now?”

“Ha, I was just sitting down and thinking about the problem. You were the one scaring yourself.” Xia Jinyuan laughed heartily. Then, he placed one hand on the commander-in-chief’s shoulder. “After you, old man.”

After leaving, Xia Jinyuan released his grip. He needed to take care of their image in the military.

!!

Ye Jian, who was sitting in the car, didn’t care about her image. She looked at her father who insisted on driving and asked her to fasten her seatbelt. She didn’t feel sleepy at all. Her eyes were filled with a warm smile.

This was her father. No matter how much she had grown up, in his eyes, she was just a child. He even reminded her to put on her seatbelt.

“Go home and have a good sleep. Don’t think about anything. Sleep well and recover your energy.”

Mr. Fu didn’t sleep for the entire night either. This was the first time he was bringing his daughter home. He was so happy that he didn’t feel sleepy at all. “When you get home later, have breakfast directly. Sleep after you finish eating. It’s good for your energy. I won’t call you for lunch. I’ll just heat up the food for you after that. You can eat it when you wake up. It doesn’t matter if you sleep until nighttime. The most important thing is to recover your energy.”

When he saw Ye Jian walking out just now, Mr. Fu could tell at first glance that his daughter was extremely tired. There were dark circles under her eyes. He didn’t even let her talk to her comrades before driving her home.

Sleep. She must sleep well when they got home.

“How many days of leave do you have after completing your mission? Do you have three days of rest?” Mr. Fu kept talking. He didn’t have any intention of stopping.

He didn’t know that he had a daughter until 21 years later. He had so many things he wanted to ask her. Now that he was with Ye Jian, he just wanted to understand his daughter.

Ye Jian listened to him patiently. When she heard his question, she smiled and said, “Dad, I’m not on leave. I have to go back to school tomorrow night at the latest. I have to rush for lessons the day after.”

Go back to school? Rush for lessons the day after tomorrow?

Shocked, Mr. Fu stepped on the brake. Caught off guard, Ye Jian fell forward and was pulled back by the seatbelt.

Realizing that Ye Jian was frightened, Mr. Fu’s expression changed. He said anxiously, “Did you hit yourself? Are you hurt?”

“No, no. Don’t worry,” Ye Jian hurriedly replied. She knew why Mr. Fu stepped on the emergency brake. Without waiting for him to ask further, she took the initiative to explain, “I forgot to tell you that I’m still a freshman cadet. I’m currently studying at the National Science University. My major is in command.

“That’s why I have to go back to school. Tomorrow… No, today… Today is the last day of my holiday. I have to go back to school.”

Mr. Fu raised his foot off the brake and drove the car forward again. Listening to his daughter’s explanation, Mr. Fu’s mouth was filled with bitterness.

“As a father, I’m a failure. I don’t know anything about my daughter’s past. I’m a failure. I’m a failure.” His words were filled with bitterness and sorrow.

However, Ye Jian smiled and said, “After I knew my background, I once hated you deeply. I hated you for abandoning my mother and me… But I can’t do it now. I know that if you knew about my existence, you would’ve been the best father in the world.

“Dad, we still have a long time to understand each other. You need to understand me, and I need to understand you too.”
