Chapter 1132: Boyfriend’s Job

He said that he was going to have a chat with her so that Ye Jian could use it as a reference but for the entire five minutes, his conversation revolved around the chemical defense regiment. “…There are many troop units below. We have the sterilizing troop, the fire-spraying troop, the smoke troop, the observation troop, and the scouting troop, you can go to any troop that you want.”

“Also, we are different from the local forces. Once a war starts, our soldiers will be in charge of chemical defense missions for the military units participating in the war. We need to get rid of harmful chemicals as well as to detect their presence.”

“We won’t fight face to face with our enemies but we are fighting against them in the dark. Student Ye, if you come to the chemical defense regiment, you can fight enemies too! What do you think? Our chemical defense regiment is not bad, right!”

The regimental commander wasn’t good at having conversations or heart-to-heart talks but everything he said was true!

The political commissar cooperated by nodding his head at the side. Occasionally, he would explain in detail the missions every troop went on. He looked as though he couldn’t wait to pull Ye Jian to the soldier recruitment assessment and let her come to the chemical defense regiment as soon as possible.

During her two-hour stay in the chemical defense regiment, Ye Jian talked to the regimental commander and the political commissar for two hours. After she left, the regimental commander and the political commissar felt heartache. “A bowl of porridge wasn’t enough to keep her here. The young lady is smarter than before!”

“She’s already being polite since she didn’t reject you directly.” The political commissar drank some water and smiled as he lamented, “Look at her training. She walked out of the mountain after seven days of not having proper food. Which military unit requires this type of training? Old partner, only the special forces will have this kind of training.”

Since her aspiration wasn’t here, they wouldn’t be able to keep her.

The regimental commander and the political commissar exchanged glances. Then they sighed in unplanned unison and waved their hands. They went back to their work.

Her goal was to become a special forces soldier. The chemical defense regiment couldn’t keep her.

Wherever she went, there would be people wanting her to stay. After Ye Jian left, she felt sweat on her back. She wasn’t good at having conversations either. It was hard for her to accept the enthusiasm of the two biggest leaders in the regiment. Fortunately, they let her go in the end and started talking about other things.

Principal Chen, who was sitting on the passenger’s seat, laughed heartily. “That’s a good phenomenon. It means that your ability is recognized by the leaders and they think that you’re worth grooming. The military is a huge family. All the leaders welcome soldiers with real abilities to take on special roles. They saw endless potential through your performance and ability. It’s normal that they want to keep you in the military unit.”

“Don’t feel pressured. Work hard and move in the direction you’ve already decided.”

As she listened to Principal Chen’s voice, Ye Jian started swaying along with the jeep. The porridge cushioned her stomach, and her eyelids were uncontrollably starting to feel heavy. In addition, the environment made her feel at ease so as she swayed, she started to fall asleep with a smile.

The car drove for two hours until they reached the small district behind Provincial No.1 Middle School. Even after the soldier parked the car, Ye Jian didn’t wake up.

Principal Chen looked at the dark eye circles under her eyelids and said to the soldier that sent them back, “Can you please carry her for me? She’s too tired. Let her have a good sleep.”

“Yes, Old Chief!” The soldier immediately opened the door. Just as he was about to bend down and carry Ye Jian, a voice sounded faintly behind them. “Let me do it. You can help the old chief to carry his bags.”

He waited there for more than an hour before his little fox came back. As her boyfriend, it was his job to carry her upstairs.
