Rebirth: General, Don't Mess Around!

He could foresee how hard it was and this young Major knew what was coming. Uncle Chen smiled and patted his shoulder and encouraged, ”Perseverance is one of the qualities that a soldier should have. Major, you did a good job.”

”I won’t just settle for good, I will make sure… that she will look at me as her comrade-in-arms, a comrade with ’two identities’.” Xia Jinyuan smiled and gazed at the faraway classroom.

The classroom lights were bright and Ye Jian was not aware that someone was waiting for her. Only when a boy came over to ask her a math question did she realize that she was smiling to herself for half a period of evening study session… just because she was thinking about whether Captain Xia would be climbing over the wall to find her!

Even if it was an evening study session, she should not be thinking about things that were not related to learning! Not even Captain Xia!

Soon, a sober Ye Jian regained her focus and calmed herself down. She got rid of her wild thoughts and no longer thought about Major Xia.

After the bell rang at the end of the evening study session, the quiet campus suddenly became lively. Ye Jian carried her revision notes and headed back to the dormitory with An Jiaxin and the other four girls who were staying with them.

Just as they were nearing the Swan Lake, Ye Jian immediately saw a familiar figure passing under the gloomy street lights. She choked on her saliva and coughed repeatedly.

Although he only passed by the street lamp, Ye Jian could clearly tell that it was the man who distracted her for half the evening study session - Major Xia.

Xia Jinyuan..., he… he really entered the campus! Don’t tell me he really climbed the wall!

Ye Jian coughed harder when she thought about this.

”Why are you coughing suddenly? Did you catch a cold?” An Jiaxin asked nervously. ”My mom prepared some cold medicine for me, go drink some when we get back to the dormitory.”

”You weren’t back at the dormitory last night, did you catch it yesterday?”

Ye Jian finally stopped coughing, but An Jiaxin’s words made her heart pump harder. She slept in the hotel… with Captain Xia, and she almost hit him.

She frantically replied, ”It’s okay, it’s okay. I didn’t pay attention while talking and choked. Oh right, I forgot to take one of my revision notes. All of you can go back to the dormitory first, I’ll go back later.”

”Okay, okay, hurry up! I’ll get hot water for you so that you can have a hot shower when you get back.” An Jiaxin couldn’t tell any difference in her voice and didn’t think much. She only frowned and reminded Ye Jian, ”Come back early, don’t forget the time while studying.”

She then left with the other girls.

No students strolled around the Swan Lake at night, unless it was students who were secretly in love and who were willing to risk being caught by patrolling teachers with torchlights. If not, they wouldn’t be feeding the mosquitoes while flirting with each other.

Ye Jian clearly felt nothing, but when she saw a torchlight flashing from the dark, she was frightened and she tensed up.

”What are you afraid of?” Xia Jinyuan was standing far away in the dark when he said that in a low voice.

His voice was much lower when compared to during the day. It had the ability to make people blush as if a lover had whispered sweet nothings into their ear.
