Rebirth: General, Don't Mess Around!

The compound that the military arranged for Commander Xia was very big. In front of the old courtyard that was Shanghainese-style, there was a corridor that looked like a modern sky garden. The corridor was built with red bricks and had not been painted over. There were potted plants on the wall too. In the winter, the plants would bloom with little red flowers.

When Ye Jian looked at them, she knew that they were red plums.

The outer walls were covered with creeper vines. Since it was winter, the leaves had all withered and only the spiderweb-like brown vines clung tightly to the walls. Ye Jian looked at the second floor. The ivory white old-fashioned windows and red bricks were very clean, looking as though they were freshly painted.

One of the windows in the room was pushed open. The light-colored curtains were fluttering in the wind… Ye Jian felt that someone was staring at her.

Suddenly, Ye Jian felt a chill down her spine. Her heartstrings tightened again.

Just as she was about to say something, she saw a dark green figure passing by the pillar in the corridor outside. Ye Jian puffed up her chest and stopped in her tracks. Her expression was so serious that it was as if she was back in the office reporting about her work.

She shot her mouth off, saying, ”Come on, let’s pick up the pace. The commander in chief has come out. We shouldn’t let the commander in chief wait for too long. Walk faster. Why are you walking so slowly all of a sudden?”

”You’re almost running, Little Fox. I can’t keep up with you.” Xia Jinyuan wanted to laugh again. At the same time, he felt that he was being too much of a rascal.

His girlfriend was so nervous but he just wanted to laugh… Cough, no, he couldn’t laugh. Laughing would ruin things!

It would not be too late to laugh after bringing her in. This was truly too amusing!

He was used to Little Fox being calm beyond her age. She had never seen her embarrassed before. Today, he saw it with his own eyes. No matter how he looked at her, it was not enough.

Xia Jinyuan, who could walk normally, held back his laughter and held Ye Jian’s hand tightly. ”Come, follow me.”

Ye Jian was really embarrassed now. She didn’t expect herself to act this way!

Commander Xia, who was standing on the steps, wanted to laugh too. However, he held back his smile and looked at Ye Jian gently. ”Little Ye, treat this as your home. Don’t be so nervous. I’m not a tiger that eats people. What are you afraid of?

”Even if I were a man-eating tiger, with the capabilities of the special forces unit, it’s not a problem for you to deal with this tiger.”

This was what Commander Xia said to his future daughter-in-law, who was visiting his house for the first time. His daughter-in-law was so nervous that her limbs were almost failing her.

”Be careful when you walk. The gravel road is a little uneven.” Xia Jinyuan held his girlfriend steadily and said softly, ”My dad is right. You don’t even have to be afraid of tigers, much less my dad.”

In Ye Jian’s mind, though, ten tigers couldn’t be compared to the commander in chief alone. She dared to hit a tiger but she definitely didn’t dare to hit the commander-in-chief!

The commander-in-chief saw that Ye Jian was so nervous that she didn’t know how to place her hands and feet. The smile on his face became even more benevolent. ”Have a seat first. I’ll make some tea for you. Drink some hot tea to calm yourself down before we relax and chat.”

”I won’t trouble you. I’ll go, I’ll go.” Ye Jian jumped up as soon as her butt touched the sofa. She looked like she was ready to make tea.

Commander Xia couldn’t help but tease, asking, ”Do you know where my kitchen is?”
