Chapter 316: Comrades In Uniform

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

After a while, Ye Jian felt that she was overreacting. Fortunately, Xia Jinyuan was very gentlemanly and did not manage to see her reaction as he closed his eyes.

After a sigh of relief, Ye Jian said, “Forgive me, I am not really used to being taken care of. Therefore, I might overreact sometimes. Please forgive me, Captain Xia.”

Revealing her thoughts, Ye Jian felt that she would feel more comfortable and less awkward.

Additionally, she did not think that her abnormal behavior would go unnoticed by Xia Jinyuan’s eagle eyes. He could clearly see that, which was why he chose to shut his eyes and stay silent, to dispel the awkwardness and embarra.s.sment.

It was better to explain clearly than to pretend and let him know that she was such a person.

“You are really a little fox.” Opening his eyes, Xia Jinyuan raised his hand and lightly flicked her forehead. “I know you’re not used to it. I believe you see that I’m trying to let you get used to it.”

It was natural to be unaccustomed. That was why he had to put in ma.s.sive amounts of effort in the short time they were together to leave more impressions in her heart. Such that when she had calmed down, she would think of him.

“Comrades are supposed to help and support one another. If you are injured, I will take care of you. There is no need to get used to it. You have to accept it.”

“In the future, you will not only take care of yourself on the battlefield. You will have to take care of the other members too when everyone is fighting together. Remember this, Little Fox, you are not alone. You can rely on me, Grandpa Gen and Uncle Chen!”

Ye Jian lowered her head and looked at her toes. After he finished speaking, she slowly replied, “Grandpa Gen and Uncle Chen are indeed people whom I can rely on, as for Captain Xia…”

She raised her head and smiled. “As for Captain Xia, not for now. One day, when I wear the uniform and become a real soldier, that is when I will regard you as my comrade, someone who I can rely on and whom we can support one another. For now, our relations.h.i.+p is that of a soldier and a civilian.”

With Xia Jinyuan, she could only use a delay tactic! When she finally dons on the uniform, ha, that will be at least three years later.

Three years, hundreds of days and nights, that was enough to change many people, many things! Including memories!

The meaning of her words had Xia Jinyuan silent for three seconds. After that, he smiled. “Now, what’s left for you is just a military uniform. You have cooperated with us for three times now, not only do I regard you as our comrade, even Han Zheng, and the others agree too.”

“In our hearts, to have fought side by side, that is a reliable comrade. Enough, my little comrade, I will need to check on your wound. Please cooperate and lie down gently.”

Uncle Chen, Uncle Chen, I have now understood why you smiled before we parted ways last night.

The one stopping him and the Little Fox from being together was not Grandpa Gen or Uncle Chen. It was the Little Fox herself!

Always wanting to steer clear of any relations.h.i.+ps with him, even mentioning that she would only become comrades when she dons on the uniform…

It would be at least three years by the time she donned the uniform. Three years was enough to let feelings fade.
