Chapter 1316 - Little Hands

Ye Jian struggled a little when her hand was held. She didn’t manage to shake him off so she let him be. The two of them were very close and only had their little fingers hooked around each other. It was hard to see... anything out of the ordinary.

Forget it. They hadn’t seen each other for more than 50 days. She couldn’t help but want to hold hands too.

She secretly curled her pinky as she listened to him chatting with Li Jinnian seriously. His side profile was so handsome that it was almost perfect like jade. When he spoke seriously, the corners of his lips would purse slightly and his eyebrows would become colder.

When he smiled, the coldness disappeared. It was like a branch that was covered by the spring breeze. It was so soft that she couldn’t help but want to raise her head to touch his eyebrows and feel the warmth of the spring breeze in her heart.

She might have looked at him for a bit too long. As he spoke, Xia Jinyuan noticed her gaze and looked over. He saw the love in Ye Jian’s eyes. This gaze... Xia Jinyuan felt exceptionally happy. Even his heart felt sweet.

Xia Jinyuan used his slender fingers to wrap Ye Jian’s hand tightly. He held it tightly until his thin lips curved up uncontrollably.

He was in an exceptionally good mood.

“...After it’s done, if possible, we can have an interactive training to improve the chemistry between the two teams.” Li Jinnian looked straight ahead and said in a low voice as if he didn’t know anything, “With two to three months of training, we will be able to hold our ground against the Americans.”

When Xia Jinyuan opened his mouth again, his voice was so soft that Li Jinnian and Big Shark couldn’t help but glance at him. Facing their gazes, Major Xia didn’t panic at all. He replied in a clear and serious tone, “Two to three months is a bit difficult. If we combine the winter training, it might be better.”

Looking at the serious Xia Jinyuan, Ye Jian silently shifted her gaze to the front... Comparing mental fortitudes with Major Xia was a loss. Comparing thick skins with him was a loss. Comparing guts... was probably a loss too!

He held her hand and poked his pinky into her palm from time to time. He kept making small actions in private but he could still maintain a stern expression!

In front of them was the camp. Two sentinels were standing at the pier and keeping watch. Xia Jinyuan had to stop his small actions and let go of Ye Jian’s hand.

As she released his hand, Ye Jian seemed to hear his reluctant sigh.

Big Shark, who received a warning, pursed his lips and sighed secretly as well. It seemed like... Major Xia had some relationship with Ye Jian. The two of them kept exchanging glances with each other. No one could interfere with their relationship.

It took only ten minutes to reach the campsite from the military port. Xia Jinyuan understood Ye Jian’s training situation and talked to Li Jinnian about the match in mid-October. When bidding farewell to the navy commander, they chatted for another ten minutes before leaving.

The military jeep started moving towards the heliport. Li Jinnian watched as the two of them left. He only retracted his gaze after the jeep drove out of his sight. Then, he looked at Big Shark coldly. “Big Shark, you spoke too much today.”

“Sigh, I just felt that Ye Jian... was quite compatible with you.” Big Shark took off his military cap and touched the top of his head with one hand. His voice was a little hoarse. “It’s not easy for us to find a partner and you’re not good at coaxing girls... We have to settle this.”

“Although Ye Jian is young, she’s calm and composed. Her personality is not bad either. She’s able to do everything. She’s not afraid of hardships or bloodshed. She’s also a soldier... Both of you will have many common topics to talk about and will understand each other’s difficulties too.”

“Jinnian, I feel bad.”
