Rebirth: General, Don't Mess Around!

Li Jinnian’s expression froze for a second. He nodded and said calmly, ”I think so too. It’s indeed a miracle that you’re still alive.

”You’re not the only one who thinks so. Even Old Master Xia and Old Madam Xia think so too. Hence, Commander Xia said that if I don’t marry Ye Jian and let her join the Xia family, I won’t be able to enter the Xia family anymore. He’ll directly acknowledge Ye Jian as his goddaughter.

”My dad is probably waiting for that day. Every time he meets Ye Jian, he’ll remind Ye Jian not to give me a good attitude and that she shouldn’t treat me too well. He tells her not to give in to me… I already suspect that I’m not a descendant of the Xia family. I must be a descendant of Commander Xia’s enemy.”

Li Jinnian wanted to laugh, but he didn’t want to do it in front of the fellow who was going to spar with him later. He didn’t want to lose before he even started.

However, Li Jinnian’s facial expression softened.

From Xia Jinyuan’s words, he could tell that Commander Xia liked his cousin very much.

”I planned to accompany Old Master Xia and Old Madam Xia for one night before rushing over to look for Ye Jian the next day. Unexpectedly, when the two elders heard that, they couldn’t tolerate me wasting time at home and immediately arranged for a car and booked a plane ticket. In less than ten minutes, they chased me out of the house and into the car.

”I have a feeling that when Ye Jian marries me one day, I’ll no longer have a status in the Xia family. The entire family will only dote on Ye Jian. As for me, I’m not very likable to begin with. I can only stay there.”

Xia Jinyuan let out a long sigh. Li Jinnian raised his eyebrows and said two words to express his opinion.

”Not bad.”

Not bad. In the future, when his cousin married into the Xia family, he would feel at ease.

Grandpa was the one who understood everything. He knew that the Xia family would be the best home for his cousin. Hence, from the start, Grandpa was very happy for his cousin to be with Xia Jinyuan. Besides not wanting Ye Jian to get married early, Grandpa was very satisfied with everything else.

Li Jinnian brought Xia Jinyuan to the training hall in the school. Xia Jinyuan was very familiar with everything about the National Science University. As soon as he turned the corner, he knew what was in front of him. Now, he understood why Li Jinnian had caught him.

”Let’s do it for real today. Let’s see how strong we are,” Li Jinnian said calmly and entered the training hall first.

Xia Jinyuan followed.

There was no need to say anything else. When they reached the training hall, they took off their clothes and applied some talcum powder on their hands. After loosening their muscles and stretching a little, the two of them knew what they were going to do next. They shook hands with each other and punched almost at the same time.

The most recent spar between the two of them was a few years ago. After that, they never sparred during the training. Now, neither of them would give in. When they punched, it would be like the wind. When hit, both the person who hit and the person who got hit would be in so much pain that their pupils would constrict.

Xia Jinyuan knew why Li Jinnian wanted to spar with him. Li Jinnian knew that in the future, he wouldn’t be the one standing beside Ye Jian. It would be Xia Jinyuan, Ye Jian’s boyfriend and future husband.

He needed to know if Xia Jinyuan had the ability to make him feel at ease. Even though Xia Jinyuan already knew that he had the ability to stand beside Ye Jian, his cousin-in-law still wanted to test him.

After testing him once, Li Jinnian wouldn’t object anymore. After testing once, Xia Jinyuan’s path to marrying would be extended again if he lost to Li Jinnian.

Hence, Xia Jinyuan had to win today. He had to win beautifully!
