Chapter 1827: Taking Advantage

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Discharging from the military was always a topic that a soldier didn’t want to talk about. Even Wei Jiayue, who hadn’t joined the conversation, couldn’t help but frown. When she heard them guessing that Ye Jian was a female soldier from the border troops, she interrupted them with a dark expression. Her comrades were chatting excitedly but she said calmly, “The past is in the past. We just need to remember it ourselves. You all know why I’m saying this.”

The atmosphere in the truck was initially quite good. Everyone had survived the disaster and met another powerful female soldier. They were in a good mood to chat but now, the atmosphere was cold. They looked at each other and no longer had the interest to chat.

After a soft sigh, peace was restored in the truck. The heavy sound of the wheels grinding against the snow could be heard.

There was no more talking. If they continued talking and had to confront Du Jiayi, not one of them would have a good ending.

The members of the Xueyu unit were chatting happily. V8 smiled brightly at Ye Jian and said, “Captain knew that you went to save them. He drove at a speed that made everyone scared. After driving for more than three hours, all of us received physical and mental training. Our psychological endurance has increased again.”

“Azure Bird, this time, we’ve trained our courage again. When I got out of the truck, my back was shaking while covered in sweat. I was scared because of Q King.”

Listening to their cheerful voices, Ye Jian’s lips were curled up. She felt much happier being with her comrades.

J5 looked meaningfully at Major Xia who was sitting beside Ye Jian. He said slowly, “Of course. Azure Bird is the only female soldier on our team. How could Q King not be anxious?

“If it were me, I would be anxious too.”

How could they not be anxious when they knew that their comrade was in danger? Any member of the Xueyu unit would be anxious. Otherwise, why didn’t V8 say anything to Xia Jinyuan about his frightening speed on the road? Why didn’t any of their comrades say anything to him?

That was because they wanted to rush over as soon as possible as well.

However, they didn’t know that Xia Jinyuan drove at such a speed for another reason. Only Han Zheng knew about it.

Hence, Xia Jinyuan got Han Zheng to go to another truck.

Major Xia smiled when he heard J5’s words. He pinched Ye Jian’s palm and whispered into her ear, “Do you know how anxious I was? I was afraid that you’d be taken advantage of by that woman.”

“Stay away from her.” His breath reached her ears. It turned out that it was a sensitive spot of hers. Coupled with the fact that she had been freezing earlier, the warmth on her skin now made her feel embarrassed. She quickly recovered her senses. He was so close to her, and as he talked… even her ears felt numb.

They were sitting very close to each other. If she tilted her head, J5 and Liu Ruoyao, who were sitting opposite her, would definitely feel that something was wrong… She was feeling guilty. She was now talking to Xia Jinyuan but the rest didn’t know about their relationship.

Xia Jinyuan was a man who was interesting but he was also a little devilish. Seeing this, he raised his eyebrows slightly. He didn’t keep his distance but moved closer instead. He grabbed Ye Jian’s right hand and said in a low voice, “Heartless little fox, I was so worried. How can you bear to reject me now? At least give me some benefits. For example… come closer and talk to me.”

If she really leaned over, he would take advantage of the bumpy ride to move closer and let her kiss his cheek.

He was well-prepared. Otherwise, why would he have taken off his windproof mask and hat when he got into the truck?

He indeed… had those intentions!
