The only reason her family was where they were today was because of her father, the chief of police. She didn’t want to advantage of it.

Ye Ying, who had studied abroad in France for half a year, was no longer as inexperienced as she was back then. Her thoughts were a lot more complex now.

Sun Dongqing didn’t think much of it. “Don’t worry about us adults. With me at home, your father won’t dare to do anything.”

Sun Dongqing didn’t listen to anyone except her daughter. The anger in her heart gradually dissipated as Ye Ying wheedled. However, when her daughter didn’t help her just now, she felt a little embarrassed. She complained, “When did I ignore you? I was happy, but your father insisted on making things unpleasant! Of all people, he insisted on mentioning that wretched girl.”

“Alright, alright, let’s not talk about her anymore. I feel terrible now that I won’t be able to go home for a year.” Ye Ying didn’t want to see her parents arguing again and quickly changed the topic.

When Sun Dongqing, who still looked a little unhappy, heard this, her ashen face immediately revealed a look of heartache. She looked at her delicate daughter lovingly and reminded her, “Ye Ying, take good care of yourself when you get to the army. Don’t let yourself suffer.

“You have to eat and sleep well. Don’t make things difficult for yourself. Don’t work yourself too hard. Just put on a show.”

Ye Zhifan, who came out of the room with his luggage, heard this. His expression darkened again. Put on a show? Was the army her home? Was there a need to be so unreasonable?

“Ye Ying, come and get your luggage.” He interrupted them so that he wouldn’t get angry again.

He immediately instructed the driver to go upstairs to get Ye Ying’s luggage. Without giving Sun Dongqing a chance to say anything stupid, he said coldly, “I’ll call you when we reach the capital city.” Then, he quickly brought Ye Ying out.

When Ye Zhifan got into the car, he would mention Ye Jian again. He had to let Ye Ying know how far away she was from Ye Jian. Without Sun Dongqing’s interference, the conversation between the father and daughter would remain calm.

On the other hand, Principal Chen also carefully reminded Ye Jian, “When you reach the school, you must obey the arrangements. Do whatever the leader wants you to do. Learn more, see more, and do more. Don’t avoid taking on heavy responsibilities.

“It’s not easy to get the title of Outstanding Student. You’re not the only one who wants to get the title as there are many excellent candidates who also long for it. Girl, as long as you do your best, you’ll have a clear conscience regardless of whether you get it or not.

“I have troops here to take care of me. Don’t be distracted by me.”

Ye Jian’s flight was at one in the afternoon. She met up with Song Zhiqiu at the airport and went back to the school. Principal Chen insisted on sending her to the airport. Since it was a jeep from the sniper base, Ye Jian didn’t stop him.

Hearing Principal Chen’s reminder, she smiled and said, “Don’t worry, I’ll definitely follow any arrangements. I won’t be a good soldier if I’m afraid of being tired. I’ll remember your words. If I make a mistake, feel free to come over and teach me a lesson.”

In Uncle Chen’s eyes, no matter how outstanding she was, she was still the little girl who needed to be taken care of.

“Hahaha, if you make a mistake, it won’t be my turn to teach you a lesson. Someone will deal with you.” Principal Chen, who was walking through the airport lobby, laughed loudly. This girl had amused him again.

Someone shouted Ye Jian’s name through the crowd. Principal Chen immediately caught the source of the voice and pointed at the two tall figures walking over. He smiled and asked Ye Jian, “Are they your classmates?”

Ye Jian saw them too. She waved her hand and replied, “Yes, the boy on the left is called Song Zhiqiu. He’s my classmate. The other one is called Yang Heng. You’ve seen him before. He’s studying in Australia now.”

Principal Chen sized up the two boys through the crowd, so much so that Song Zhiqiu’s heart trembled.
