The Pakistani party that was arriving soon was good friends with China. Even if they were completing the handover procedures of the old government to the new government, it wouldn't affect the country's warm welcome to the Chinese leaders.
Ye Jian1Ye JianProtagonist and the Child of a Late Heroine knew that China and Pakistan still had a close friends.h.i.+p, even until the 20th century. The diplomats of Pakistan also said before that China and Pakistan were friends no matter what. Chinese leaders' visits were highly concerned.
“We two countries have a bone-buried “road of friends.h.i.+p.” Xiao Ye, do you know about that?” The plane had flown for two hours. After breakfast, the head leader was like an easy-going elder. He began to ask questions kindly, and he even turned his body towards Ye Jian to talk to her.
Ye Jian was afraid of the accompanying leader suddenly talking to her, so she shortened the mealtime and kept her best manner to answer him.
Qin Xiu, who was sitting in a row with her, wiped his hand with a wet tissue and slightly gazed at Ye Jian. This kind of question was difficult for a high school student to answer. After all, this history wasn't well known to everyone.
He even took out a pen and prepared to write while reminding Ye Jian.
However, he heard her answered appropriately and calmly, with a confident smile on her face. In the warm cabin lighting, her smile was as graceful as a flower and as soft as water. Her dark eyes were bright. Her voice contained her respect for history, as she replied: “The Karakoram Highway, also known as the “ChinPakistan Friends.h.i.+p Road,” has a total length of 1,224 kilometers and is the only land route between China and Pakistan.”
“Founded in 1966, the Chinese construction road section is 600 kilometers. More than 15,000 Chinese people partic.i.p.ated in the construction, with more than 100 of them unfortunately killed. This road of friends.h.i.+p is the road buried deep in the bones of the Chinese.”
This road had also become a way to prove the excellent relations.h.i.+p between the two countries.
“History shouldn't get forgotten, especially the next generation of people need to keep in mind that the friends.h.i.+p and the establishment of diplomatic relations between the two countries are not done overnight. Our martyrs have paved the way for this friends.h.i.+p with blood and bones. We must always be careful. Remember that the word ‘friends.h.i.+p' should be regarded highly and with respect. It's good that you know about this. This means that the young people in our city are still receiving a high-level education.” After the leader listened quietly to Ye Jian's answer, he continued to remind her, “I can see your aspirations, you're excellent. They say it's regretful for men not joining the army, but I say, it's no different for this girl.”
“The training in the army was tough, and I had learned how to be safe.”
The accompanying clerical staff, that was, Q5, started the record when the prominent leader started talking. His pen moved quickly as he carefully noted down the dialogue between the prominent leader and Ye Jian.
Then he saw the prominent leader speaking to the Major General of the Army: “I've seen Xiao He's training video, she's nothing like a high school student. She's not worse than our ordinary soldiers. When we return, edit her training video a bit then publicize it to the public. Let the male soldiers have a look, who says women aren't as good as men.”
His order wasn't fierce; instead, it was in a relaxed and humorous tone. Although the mood in the entire front cabin was severe, there was absolutely no sense of awkwardness.
Qin Xiu had been staring at Ye Jian with a faint smile. After she finished talking with the prominent leader, he wrote in his notebook with a pen, “Outstanding performance. Keep up the good work.”
When he gave the notebook to Ye Jian, she thought that he had written things that she needed to improve on. After all, he was the one who dared to crack jokes with some of the diplomatic staff and translators.
