The civilians living in peaceful times would never know that their country had a group of soldiers that weren’t able to have their names remembered even after they sacrificed during a mission. They used their bodies to protect their country.
She lifted the corners of her soft lips slowly. The smile at the edge of her lips was gentle. It bloomed slowly like a flower. “You are a dignified soldier. Hence, you should wear this military uniform that represents your identity.”
The maple leaves on Mount Dalang had turned yellow, golden yellow, just like the color of the medals. When the wind blew past, the maple leaves rustled. Ye Jian looked at the young major standing beside her. She felt calm in her heart.
Xia Jinyuan, you are my goal. One day, I will wear this military uniform too and look at the thousands of maple trees with you once again!
She didn’t hide her gaze. Xia Jinyuan, who was looking at the scenery on the horizon, lowered his head and saw the emotions in her eyes as well as the perseverance that never disappeared.
When Xia Yiwei said that at 23 years old, he still didn’t understand anything, he replied to her earnestly without a second of hesitation, “The love I want doesn’t need to be romantic. I don’t have to be indecisive about it and I don’t have the time to quarrel either.”
“My love has battles, has fearlessness, has companionship, and I trust Ye Jian, even more, to pass my life to her. Xia Yiwei, Hou Zi and you have never written wills before, right? You have never thought that you might not be able to see each other in the future anymore, right?”
Xia Yiwei was flabbergasted. She exclaimed, “Xia Jinyuan, you’re a major now. Do you have to go on the field during practices?”
Xia Jinyuan smiled when he heard this. “You’re my sister but you don’t understand me. However, Ye Jian does. Xia Yiwei, do you think I will let go of a girl that understands me?”
“I met someone that knows me, understands me, and supports me. At 23 years old, I will grab onto her tightly. I will write a will before I leave every single time because I don’t know if I will come back alive.”
“Thus, I don’t have the time to be romantic like you. I can only make use of the time I have left to date properly.”
The love of a Special Forces soldier wasn’t romantic. He wasn’t able to give her much romance either. Who would want this kind of love? Who would dare accept this kind of love?
When he met someone who dared to want, dared to accept, and dared to love a Special Forces soldier, he knew that she was the one he wanted for life.
He looked at the lady that dared to love him and dared to set him as her goal. Xia Jinyuan hugged her tighter. He smiled with his thin lips. The smile never disappeared.
Xia Jinyuan only had three days. Ye Jian personally buttoned the last button for him and tidied his collar. She looked at the tall and straight man standing in front of her like a pine tree and nodded in satisfaction. “Not bad, it looks like I still prefer the Captain Xia who wears his uniform.”
His domineering aura became more obvious after he wore his military uniform. Ye Jian helped him to wear his military cap. Under the cap, his eyes were black and deep. His gaze was as sharp as swords. This Xia Jinyuan… was hard to forget once you see him.
Xia Jinyuan finished wearing his outfit. His gaze was gentle as he used his eyes to silently outline her face. Then, he carefully observed her movements and etched every single one of her smiles in his heart.
He slowly lifted his hand and placed it on her face. His slightly warm thin lips landed on her forehead and he smiled and said, “I will also help you to wear your military uniform one day. Little Fox, I will wait for the day to come.”
