Chapter 972 - Hello, My Comrade

He looked up occasionally towards the direction of the bus station. He wanted to see if the small battered car from the field airport would appear. Using V8’s words, could it be that the brat had his eyes on Ye Jian?

Xia Jinyuan scanned the time. It was 5.20 am. It should arrive soon.

The sound of a vehicle was heard. The six people raised their heads at almost the same time. They shifted their gaze over... She’s here!

Ye Jian was here. She wore her camouflage uniform and looked even more like a soldier than the six people that came to welcome her.

The five people who were relaxed at the start started tidying their collars unconsciously and pulled their clothes. They waited for Ye Jian to come over as if she was going to inspect their attire.

Xia Jinyuan was the exception. His comrades waited on the spot but he carried the huge bag containing thick clothes and walked over to welcome Ye Jian.

“We just parted for less than 24 hours but we’re seeing each other again, Little Fox.” He blocked the gazes of the people behind using his tall and mighty figure. It was hard to tell whether he did it on purpose. “When Commander Xia acts, no one will reject him. Little Fox, you’re bold.”

Ye Jian took the huge bag from this man who was dressed as a traveler. She raised her eyebrows and smiled at him ambiguously. “If you told me about this in the morning, I wouldn’t have nagged so much earlier. I can travel with you directly and it will save nine hours.”

“The situation was different at that time. Come, let me introduce you to my brothers. Besides, G3, T6, V8, and Z7, there’s still one comrade you haven’t met.” Xia Jinyuan immediately changed the topic to prevent her from taking revenge.

He opened the bag and took out a thick windbreaker for her. “Are you cold? Wear this first.”

“A little. However, it’s alright. Let’s go. Don’t let them wait for too long.” Ye Jian wore outerwear that had light fleece added inside. Once she wore the windbreaker, she felt warmer.

Xia Jinyuan helped her to zip her jacket. There was gentleness in his eyes. This little fox... she really dared to come when she was asked to.

Although he tried to stop her, the ending was still the same.

In that case, my love, my comrade, it’s time for us to protect each other’s lives again!

Z7, Han Zheng, had already waved at Ye Jian but he got blocked by Xia Jinyuan. When Ye Jian came over, he was the first to step out. He said, “He’s so evil. He purposely blocked our enthusiasm.”

“I’m giving you time to tidy yourself so that Ye Jian won’t see your ugliest side.” Xia Jinyuan refuted him with a valid reason. Then, he said to a man that was around 1.86 meters in height. “Pigeon. The previous time, he was in charge of the protection of the Head.”

“Hello, Ye Jian. I’m Pigeon. I have seen you before. You’re an outstanding female soldier. I anticipate working together with you.”

At 5.30 am, the sky of this small country town still hadn’t lit up. Pigeon was standing in the dark so Ye Jian could only see the outline of his figure but when he opened his mouth, Ye Jian was stunned. His voice was so pleasant!

It was like the ancient musical instrument, the xun. In one sentence, there was a low and gentle elegance and a faint hint of sadness. It made people want to speak to him more so that they could enjoy his voice a little longer.

“Hello, I’m Ye Jian. It’s my goal to work together with all of you.” Ye Jian stretched her hand out and held his hand lightly. Then, they released each other’s hands politely. “Hence, I came to chase my goal.”

This was the first time he heard that a girl’s goal was to fight alongside Special Forces soldiers. Pigeon’s face was filled with astonishment. How strange. Her goal was to go into combat with them... That was really courageous.
