Chapter 1334 - A Lifelong Promise

Xia Jinyuan swallowed his saliva and pursed his lips. “Did the military school send anyone over?”

“Someone is coming. Major General Yang contacted the Chinese Academy of Sciences personally. The school was very cooperative. They brought Ye Jian’s student identification and military uniform and are riding a train over. They will arrive at 8 am tomorrow... It will be afternoon when they reach our town.”

Hearing this, Xia Jinyuan’s eyes darkened. “It will take seven hours to get from the city to the town. I’m afraid there’s not enough time. Let’s arrange for a helicopter. I’ll arrange for a private helicopter. Political commissar, call the air traffic control and approve the route.”

“Okay, that’s not difficult.” Commissar Yan had already sighed many times throughout the night. He was also afraid that there wasn’t enough time. He even thought about whether he should mobilize a military helicopter again.

Principal Chen, who received the call at the entrance of the town health center, ran over. He ran up the stairs and saw Xia Jinyuan under the dim yellow light. Before he could speak, Xia Jinyuan had already raised his voice when he heard the commotion. “Uncle Chen.”

“It’s good that you’re back. It’s good that you’re back.” Principal Chen took a few steps forward. His eyes were bloodshot as he repeated his words. “It’s good that you’re back.”

It was good that they were back. It was good that they were back. Now that she was back, Ye Jian could send Uncle Gen off. Now that she was back, Uncle Gen could leave in peace.

Life and death were not unfamiliar to Xia Jinyuan. As a Special Forces soldier on the frontlines, he had experienced many farewells in the past few years. However, at this moment, his heart still hurt.

“Ye Jian is accompanying Uncle Gen inside. Ever since she received your call, her tears have never stopped. She only slept for two hours when I told her that we need to take turns driving.” Xia Jinyuan told Principal Chen about Ye Jian’s situation so that Principal Chen wouldn’t worry. “Her condition is alright now. Her emotions aren’t fluctuating too much.”

“It’s just that when she entered the ward just now, she couldn’t move her legs. She was afraid that that moment would come.”

She understood everything but if that moment really came, the calm Ye Jian would probably lose control of her emotions.

Xia Jinyuan was afraid that she would hurt herself if she was too sad.

“With Uncle Gen around, Ye Jian will listen to him. She will listen to him.” Principal Chen, who had aged a few years, said in a low voice. There was sorrow on his face. “Uncle Gen always said that his life is worth it. Even if he leaves one day, he will leave in peace.”

“The only person I’m worried about is Ye Jian. When you go over later, say something to make Uncle Gen feel at ease and let him leave without any worries.”

These words made Commander Liu and Commissar Yan’s eyes turn red. This Class A Master Sergeant, who had dedicated his entire life to the military unit, had selflessly helped an orphan to receive the best education and led her to a prosperous path. Now that he was leaving, who would bear for him to leave?

Xia Jinyuan nodded solemnly. “Don’t worry, Uncle Chen. I swear on my life that I will take care of Ye Jian. We will advance and retreat together and never leave each other!”

Commander Liu and Commissar Yan only realized their relationship after hearing this. However, they didn’t look happy. Instead, they looked worried.

Would Commander-in-Chief Xia agree?

“My dad has already told me that he will acknowledge Ye Jian as his daughter-in-law. I have already called my dad on the way here. He will reach the town around 6 am tomorrow.”

“Uncle Gen is worried about Ye Jian. I will let him smile and leave without any worries.”
