Chapter 4427: Forever

If they were outside, Xia Jinyuan would definitely tease her and say, ‘I think I made a mistake. Actually, I want you to stay and accompany me.’ However, he immediately swallowed his words.

They couldn’t continue like this. If they continued like this, both of them would be playing with fire.

Now… the fire in her heart had been ignited. It was just a little bit away from a huge fire.

He stopped laughing and said softly, “Silly girl.” Then, he strode into the room to get an umbrella.

He had to stop. He had to stop. He had to be careful in school. If there were any rumors, he would be fine. But she would be the one at a disadvantage.

Xia Jinyuan turned around and pressed his fist against his chest. He gritted his teeth and closed his eyes for a few seconds. He was very disappointed. He was disappointed and frustrated.

Ye Jian only saw his back view and didn’t see his expression. She heaved a sigh of relief and patted her chest lightly with a frightened expression.

Just now… she almost said that she would stay and accompany him. Fortunately, he stepped on the brakes in time…

She patted her chest and then her burning face. It was really hot. It was as hot as a high fever.

She moved two steps and gathered rainwater in her hands. When the cold rainwater hit her face, there was finally a hint of coldness on her hot cheeks. When the coldness touched her skin, her dazed mind became clearer.

Before Xia Jinyuan could get the umbrella, Ye Jian was already awake.

Right on the heels of that, she narrowed her eyes slightly and thought of a problem.

She didn’t have a holiday until the middle of July. Why was Captain Xia looking for her now? Was he going to stay until she finished her exams before bringing her to the bordering town?

Or was there something else?

She would ask him later. As long as it had nothing to do with a mission, he would tell her.

The rain hit the green military umbrella that was opened. The rainwater gathered into lines and rushed down continuously. The two of them walked into the heavy rain for only a few minutes before their pants were wet.

Ye Jian asked the question she thought of just now. She thought that Xia Jinyuan would answer her quickly and easily.

After she finished asking, the aura of the man beside her turned dark and cold. The coldness spread to Ye Jian and made her heart sink.

“The day after tomorrow, I’ll go to J5’s hometown to visit the two elders before returning to the capital city to pay my respects to my good buddy…”

In the heavy rain, his voice was very deep, cold, and firm. It was as dark as rust.

Ye Jian’s heart ached. She pursed her lips.

J5!

Her comrade would always be sleeping in the cold and dark underground. She would never see his smile or hear his voice again…

“I haven’t talked to him in a long time. I have to go over and chat with him for a while and have a drink with him. He likes to drink home-brewed rice wine. I’ll go to his house to get it first before visiting him.”

Even though J5 had been sacrificed for almost two years, Xia Jinyuan’s throat was still filled with blood whenever he recalled J5. He would often dream of the times when the two of them fought side by side.

In the blink of an eye, two years had passed. His good buddy and comrade had left them for almost two years.

This time, he had letters that the comrades had written for J5. When he went over, he wanted to burn it for J5. He needed to let J5 know that after he left, his comrades continued to think of him. They would even habitually call him during training.

His bed was also reserved. Every day, they would clean, make the bed, and save his portion of water and food. Only then would they feel that their good buddy had never left and was still in the team.

“I want to write a letter to J5. When the time comes, help me burn it for him. Also, help me pass a message…” Ye Jian’s heart was heavy. Even her voice was choked up as she spoke slowly. Every word was extremely difficult.

Xia Jinyuan’s throat moved. “Okay…” It was a very soft reply. There was sorrow in it.
