Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

The compound that the military arranged for Commander Xia was very big. In front of the old courtyard that was Shanghainese-style, there was a corridor that looked like a modern sky garden. The corridor was built with red bricks and had not been painted over. There were potted plants on the wall too. In the winter, the plants would bloom with little red flowers. When Ye Jian looked at them, she knew that they were red plums.

The outer walls were covered with creeper vines. Since it was winter, the leaves had all withered and only the spiderweb-like brown vines clung tightly to the walls. Ye Jian looked at the second floor. The ivory white old-fas.h.i.+oned windows and red bricks were very clean, looking as though they were freshly painted

One of the windows in the room was pushed open. The light-colored curtains were fluttering in the wind Ye Jian felt that someone was staring at her.

Suddenly, Ye Jian felt a chill down her spine. Her heartstrings tightened again.

Just as she was about to say something, she saw a dark green figure pa.s.sing by the pillar in the corridor outside. Ye Jian puffed up her chest and stopped in her tracks. Her expression was so serious that it was as if she was back in the office reporting about her work.

She shot her mouth off, saying, Come on, lets pick up the pace. The commander in chief has come out. We shouldnt let the commander in chief wait for too long, Walk faster. Why are you walking so slowly all of a sudden?

Youre almost running, Little Fox. I cant keep up with you. Xia Jinyuan wanted to laugh again. At the same time, he felt that he was being too much of a rascal. His girlfriend was so nervous but he just wanted to laugh Cough, no, he couldnt laugh. Laughing would ruin things!

It would not be too late to laugh after bringing her in. This was truly too amusing!

He was used to Little Fox being calm beyond her age. She had never seen her embarra.s.sed before. Today, he saw it with his own eyes. No matter how he looked at her, it was not enough. Xia Jinyuan, who could walk normally, held back his laughter and held Ye Jians hand tightly. Come, follow me.

Ye Jian was really embarra.s.sed now. She didnt expect herself to act this way!

Commander Xia, who was standing on the steps, wanted to laugh too. However, he held back his smile and looked at Ye Jian gently. Little Ye, treat this as your home. Dont be so nervous. Im not a tiger that eats people. What are you afraid of?

Even if I were a man eating tiger, with the capabilities of the special forces unit, its not a problem for you to deal with this tiger.

This was what Commander Xia said to his future daughter-in-law, who was visiting his house for the first time. His daughter-in-law was so nervous that her limbs were almost failing her.

Be careful when you walk. The gravel road is a little uneven Xia Jinyuan held his girlfriend steadily and said softly, My dad is right. You dont even have to be afraid of tigers, much less my dad. In Ye Jians mind, though, ten tigers couldnt be compared to the commander in chief alone. She dared to hit a tiger but she definitely didnt dare to hit the commander-in-chief!

The commander-in-chief saw that Ye Jian was so nervous that she didnt know how to place her hands and feet. The smile on his face became even more benevolent. Have a seat first. Ill make some tea for you. Drink some hot tea to calm yourself down before we relax and chat.

I wont trouble you. Ill go, Ill go. Ye Jian jumped up as soon as her b.u.t.t touched the sofa. She looked like she was ready to make tea.

Commander Xia couldnt help but tease, asking, Do you know where my kitchen is?
