Reborn at Boot Camp: General, Don’t Mess Around!

Chapter 795: Can I Invite You

She needed to think of what present to give him. It was his 18th birthday, his coming-of-age ceremony. She needed to give something special.

She wondered if Uncle Yang and Auntie Yang would consider holding a birthday party for Yang Heng.

It was his 18th birthday so they should be having one, right?

If there was a birthday party, she needed to buy a cocktail dress. Oh right, she needed to style her hair too.

While she was thinking about what present to give Yang Heng, Yang Heng had already asked Ye Jian to meet him in the afternoon.

When it was noon, Ye Jian went to look for Yang Heng once she finished her lunch. The weather was turning cold. If you stood on the roof and faced the wind, you could feel the coolness of Autumn.

Yang Heng had reached around five minutes earlier. When he saw Ye Jian coming up, a smile appeared on his handsome and clean face. “This place is not bad. You can see the river from here.”

“You’re good at finding peaceful locations. I’ve never come to the roof of the teaching building.” Ye Jian walked beside him and stood at the same spot he was standing at. She looked out and saw the river flowing on the horizon. She passed the portrait in her hand to him and said, “Sorry to trouble you for this. However, please keep this a secret.”

In 1997, the nation’s security system was still upgrading. They didn’t have pictures of all the criminals and fugitives. Sometimes, even if there was a picture, only the local security system would have it. It didn’t exist in all the security systems in the nation.

Yang Heng took the portrait and glanced at it. He complimented, “I didn’t manage to see it the other time but today, I got to fulfill my wish. Your drawing is truly good. It’s really professional. When did you even learn this? Do you have time to study?”

This question was a little sharp. Ye Jian raised her eyebrows and replied, “This is called talent. Sometimes, you don’t have to learn it specially. I can just draw it if I want to draw.”

“My birthday is next Friday. Come to my birthday party.”

Ye Jian was still thinking if she should explain a little more but little did she expect that Yang Heng’s attention wasn’t on the reason why she could draw. Instead, he wanted to invite her to his birthday party.

Ye Jian was stunned for a moment when she suddenly heard him inviting her for his birthday party. “Your 18th birthday party? Me?”

…In her past life, Ye Jian never attended anyone’s birthday party. Her life was already like that so she didn’t want to affect other people. She was worried that Ye Ying would vent her anger on other people.

Thus, she never attended any birthday parties and didn’t even have a good friend.

Hence, she was really surprised when she received an invitation. But, she calmed down very soon and smiled. “How can I go? You only invited your classmates. If I go…”

“My classmates are all encouraging me to invite you. A few darts lovers in the class knew that you’re really good at shooting the target so they want to see if you know how to play darts.”

The reason given was ample. It was a real reason too.

Yang Heng felt a little embarrassed when he noticed that Ye Jian was shocked. “I understand it’s a little sudden. I plucked up my courage to ask you quickly because I’m afraid that I won’t dare to say it later.”

“It isn’t sudden. I’m just surprised. In that case, I will definitely go on time.” Ye Jian didn’t reject him. She wanted to have a real and happy high school life that she never experienced before. Thus, she felt no reason to reject any normal socializing events.

Once rejection became a habit, she wouldn’t just lose her happiness. She would lose friends too.

Yang Heng went back to his class after getting her reply. Once he entered, many male students gathered around him. “How is it? How is it? Did she agree? Hey, hurry up and tell us.”
