2614 Pleasant Appreciation
He did want to drive over to pick her up and send her to the airport, but… it was just a thought. With his future father-in-law accompanying her, he shouldn’t snatch what his future father-in-law wanted to do the most.
If not, his future father-in-law would despise him.
Ye Jian knew that she was too nervous when she heard Captain Xia’s words. Pfft! She looked down on herself.
She pretended to smile and said, “You’re thinking too much. Based on the current situation, even if I say that I want you to break out of your house and come look for me, you might not dare to pick me up. This morning, my father specially waited outside the military for a few hours to fetch me. If you come over now, you might be misunderstood as wanting to snatch me away from your future father-in-law.”
Look at his amazing little fox. She knew exactly what he meant.
“Sigh, you’re right this time. No matter how bold I am, I won’t dare to snatch my future father-in-law’s daughter. I’m afraid that my future father-in-law will despise me.”
Ye Jian smiled. It was rare to see Captain Xia have something that he didn’t dare to do.
Her laughter made Xia Jinyuan even more frustrated. “Little Fox, you have to be kind sometimes and take care of your boyfriend who can’t be exposed for the time being. You have to comfort him. If not, his hair will turn white.”
In the distance, Commander Xia was leading the guards to look for his devil of a son. “Go over there and look for him. I’ll look in front. Whoever finds him first will ask him to wait for me under the flag-raising platform.”
At this moment, Xia Jinyuan was focused on talking to Ye Jian. He didn’t notice that the commander-in-chief was looking for him around the field.
When he heard Ye Jian reprimanding him because of his words, the image of his lover’s expression and actions appeared in his mind. It must be… extremely pleasing to the eye!
“Alright, I’m not talking to you anymore. My plane leaves at 9.11 pm. My dad will accompany me to school…” Ye Jian suddenly stopped talking.
Xia Jinyuan frowned when he didn’t hear her voice. He asked her softly, “What’s wrong, Little Fox?”
Ye Jian was silent for a while before she opened her mouth. “Captain Xia, how should I tell my father about my mother… My father’s relationship with my mother is still very deep even after so many years. He hopes to meet my mother and wants our family to reunite. He even said that he wants to bring my mother home… Captain Xia, I don’t dare to tell my father the truth.”
“I’m afraid that he won’t be able to accept it. After happiness comes sorrow. I’m really worried… Until now, I’ve been avoiding the topic. I don’t dare to say anything.”
Previously, when her grandfather asked her about it, she avoided it on purpose.
This was indeed a problem. Xia Jinyuan could also see that his future father-in-law’s love for his deceased mother-in-law was very deep. It was still as strong as wine. His feelings had not changed for more than 20 years.
His future father-in-law was a sentimental person. That was why they were worried that he wouldn’t be able to accept it.
“Old Master… would probably have guessed it by now. Since Old Master knows that Father-in-law will be accompanying you back to the Southern Province, with Old Master’s wisdom and understanding of Father-in-law, I think Old Master will remind Father-in-law and let him be prepared.”
Xia Jinyuan said softly and walked behind a camphor tree. “You can’t hide the fact that my mother-in-law was sacrificed. There’s no hope of a reunion at all. You can’t let Father-in-law continue holding on to hope. The greater the hope, the greater the disappointment. That’s not good.”
“Do you mean that… I should tell my father as soon as possible?” Ye Jian felt a little uneasy.
