Reborn at Boot Camp: General, Don't Mess Around!

Ye Jian, who received Zhou Yijin’s concern, smiled and said, “She didn’t glare at me because of you. I got to know her a long time ago, and we have some grudges between us. I didn’t take any of that to heart, but she still remembers it all until now.

“It’s probably because she didn’t manage to vent her anger at that time. She must have been feeling frustrated. I think she had always wanted to find an opportunity to vent her anger. However, I didn’t give her a chance to do so, and she didn’t want to leave an unreasonable impression on others. That’s why she doesn’t like me. It has nothing to do with you.”

Ye Jian didn’t want to see Zhou Yijin blame herself. Hence, she took the initiative to say that she and Du Jiayi had grudges between them. She said, “Your cousin knows about it too. He reminded me to be careful of Du Jiayi. He even told me about her past. Don’t worry, Yijin, I know everything.”

“Sixth Cousin-in-law, you didn’t make up this story to comfort me, right? You… really have a grudge against her? Where did this grudge come from?”

Zhou Yijin didn’t believe it.

“It’s true. I have no reason to lie to you. We’ve met a couple of times.”

“Alright, I believe you. Sixth Cousin-in-law, if you meet Du Jiayi in the future, don’t cower. Just retort back at her like me. That’s the only way she’ll know that we’re not easy to bully.

“You’re my cousin-in-law. Besides me and the rest, you also have the support of Old Master and Uncle Fu. The most direct way to let her know that we’re not easy to offend is to use our identity to suppress her.”

Zhou Yijin’s words were very skillful. She was saying that Ye Jian was different from the past, and she didn’t make Ye Jian feel uncomfortable because of her reminder.

In the past, Ye Jian didn’t have anyone to rely on. That was why Ye Zhifan and his family bullied her so much. Now, it was different. She had many supporters and loved ones behind her. If she met anyone who made things difficult for her, she wouldn’t have to face them alone anymore. People would stand up for her.

That was what Zhou Yijin meant.

Ye Jian felt warmth in her heart. She hugged Zhou Yijin, who treated her so well. “Hurry up and rehearse. I’ll hang the stage lights and ribbons with the others. I’ll wait for your exciting performance tomorrow night.”

Ye Jian pushed Zhou Yijin gently. Her smile was bright and beautiful like the blooming flowers in March. In the blink of an eye, she displayed the playfulness of a flower in summer. It was an extremely pleasant sight to behold. Her low and gentle voice had an indestructible toughness. “Look at how she needed to calm down. I bet she can tell that I’m not easy to bully.”

That was true. Only then did Zhou Yijin feel at ease. She hugged Ye Jian back and smiled. “Sixth Cousin-in-law, let’s meet again tonight. I’ll send you the message my cousin sent to all of us. It’s very touching! Only then did I know that he’s so good at doting on girls. Sixth Cousin-in-law, you’ll get to have your happily ever after.”

There was no woman who didn’t want her boyfriend to dote on her. When Zhou Yijin read Xia Jinyuan’s message, she felt a little envious.

Ye Jian didn’t know about that. Hearing that, her heart trembled slightly.

Her Captain Xia had done many things for her secretly without her knowing. From the age of 16 to the age of 21, he took care of her meticulously for seven years.

She was really happy to have him. In this world, only he could give her happiness.
