Chapter 472: Why Is It You Again
Ye Jian only knew one thing: only she can decide when her gun was unholstered. That was the time she can make her own decisions.
Facing against Regimental Commander Liu and Political Commissar Yan’s urges, she smiled at them: “Political Commissar Yan, Regimental Commander Liu, please stop worrying about me. Nothing will go wrong.”
In that regard, Ye Jian was quite confident in herself. She’s perfect at not making mistakes.
The two officers knew there was weight behind her words. The little lass was smart and diligent. When she’s calm, her environment becomes calm and relaxed. Like a painting of the mountains and its rivers, giving off the feeling that she was obedient, lovable and there was no need for them to be worried about her.
She had an obedient personality and was so smart. She was able to treat such a rare honor calmly and composedly at such a young age. There was not even an ounce of arrogance in her, and, based on her composure, that alone was enough for others to rest assured.
Regimental Commander Liu and Political Commissar Yan left behind the urge for her to take care of herself. Only then did they make their driver steer away from the military region’s entrance and headed towards the military reception.
Their meeting was tomorrow morning, and since it was late in the night, there was no reason for them to go in.
Meanwhile, Ye Jian walked towards the sentry post carrying her military camo suitcase in one hand while the other one was holding an army pass and a letter.
Midnight 0030, the sentries posted at the military base’s entrance wore a fitted military uniform and held a 95 series handgun. He stood there with a serious expression like a pine tree when he noticed Ye Jian walking towards him. His gaze landed on the military camo luggage in her hands. Though he did not point his gun at Ye Jian, he did speak up with a powerful voice: “This is a military base, do not approach!”
The importance of a sentry being posted was to overpower enemy spies, gang members psychologically, and commoners, etc. to prevent them from doing any acts of vandalism and destruction. As such, the sentries act as a psychological deterrent for those who harbored ill intentions.
While they did not carry any live ammunition on them, they still had five blanks.
Even then, no matter who it was that saw those sentries holding weapons; it would instill respect in them. It would make the commoners feel safe and at peace.
Ye Jian placed the luggage bag beside her feet and gave an incredibly authentic military salute. “Greetings. I am a student who is here to report in. This is the military letter and my military pass.
She passed the military letter and army pass that she had held onto since she had gotten off the car to other sentry on duty. Under the watch of two steel guns, Ye Jian didn’t feel fear. Instead, it was an intimate feeling.
The sentry read through every line of the military letter in his hands. He did not allow her to pass immediately. His gaze was still severe and filled with military might: “Please wait at the side; we need to confirm this.”
This was the standard procedure. Ye Jian gave a smile and stood at the side while waiting for the sentry to confirm the contents of the letter and allow her entry.
Didn’t they say that someone was waiting for her at the guardpost? Why isn’t there anyone?
The military area was heavily guarded at midnight. Streetlights were turned on, illuminating every corner in the military area while highlighting the mysteriousness and majesticness in this foggy night. It was showing off the pride of the country that did not allow to be infringed on.
The national coat of arms in the very center of the large door was shone on by a beam of snow-white light, becoming the brightest attraction in the entire night view. It was also the most stately attraction.
Someone was moving across the military area with massive strides and quick footfalls. His slender and straight figure carried a stern air around him while walking towards the entrance. Ye Jian watched as the picture walked out of the shadows, walked past the guard post, and then watched him walk step by step, all the way to her.
The familiar minty scent, the familiar face, the tender smile that made her feel most usual and also made her heart tremble in place.
“You… are the person who was supposed to receive me?” After asking that question aloud, Ye Jian realized her question was quite stupid. Since he had come all the way here, naturally, he was the person who was supposed to receive her.
Xia Jinyuan took the luggage bag from her hands and laughed with his slim brows raised: “That’s correct, I’m the person who’s here to receive you.”
