âI wonât be afraid of you, and you wonât be afraid of me. If you appear in front of me covered in blood, I will say well done, my Major. If I appear in front of you covered in blood, you will say well done, my comrade.â
âSee, weâre not afraid of each other, we know and understand each other. Youâre right; our love is stronger than love with an effete language without substance.â
âXia Jinyuan2, I believe our love will always be this strong.â
âOur love will always be this strongââ¦â¦ Xia Jinyuan smiled. The little fox really knew how to speak, speaking right into his heart and allowing him to feel the sweetness. âThatâs right. This is our love, it can be seen in the open, and it can endure the wind and sun. Itâs love right now.â
âThis is the love of the two of us, a unique and unmatched love,â She wet her hands and gently washed the blood off of his handsome face. She could see the tenderness in his eyes and his bright smile.
Xia Jinyuan was really born good looking. Elegant like bamboo and yet arrogant like a green pine. His brows were like an ink drawn painting from a great master, displaying his handsomeness. There was also the sternness when the ink was splashed; not a single part was not exquisite; not a single piece was not elegant.
The first time they met, she could see this majestic young major heading towards her heart. Even if she was unwilling, she had no way to resist his tenderness.
As she was cleaning the bloodstains on his face, he was also washing the bloodstains off her face. Both their eyes were so focused; they could only see the other partyâs face deep in their eyes until it was completely washed clean.
There was also Xia Jinyuanâs hands. She pulled the plant in the stream and crushed it into pulp, then washed the bloodstains on his fingers bit by bit.
Ye Jian1 washed carefully. She pursed the corner of her lips a little; both hands were gentle and yet strong as she washed the bloodstains off his fingers.
The gurgling stream water rinsed the bloodstains off his face and hands, not a trace of dirt could be found: âVery clean, itâs all the smell of grass.â
The water drops on his face looked like pearls on jade under the faint morning light, smooth and moist. Her dark pupils looked at him with a smile, and the rigidness on her face gradually faded away, leaving only tenderness towards him. At that moment, her gentle smile had been imprinted in Xia Jinyuanâs heart.
âXia Jinyuan, did you slack off when you train? Standing in the middle of V8 and the others, you are way too fair. The skin on your face and hands are so fair, those who donât know might really think that youâve slacked off,â Ye Jian lowered her head and joked with a smile as she washed with the green grass mush. His strong hands became fairer; his fingers were delicate and slender; they were prettier than a pianistâs.
Xia Jinyuan quietly replied with a smile, âThis question has troubled me for a few years. When I first enrolled in military school, I contemplated whether I should head to the hospital to make my skin darker.â
Ye Jian, who was secretly praising in her heart, could see the changes in the eyes of the owner of the pair of hands. Because of her seriousness and concentration, Xia Jinyuanâs eyes were getting deeper and deeper.
âEveryone wants to be fair, but you want to be dark? You really know how to gain aggro,â Letting loose his clean hands, Ye Jian scooped a handful of water to wash her own face. Xia Jinyuan, who was squatting beside her, stood up and gave a low shout: âYe Jianâ¦â¦â
Ye Jian smiled and lifted her head, âI canâ¦â¦â
