2641 A Crush Is Not Good

How she felt about Captain Xia?

Ye Jian sensed that something was amiss. She felt that he was trying to probe something.

Did her father discover something?

That wasn't right. Captain Xia and she didn't do anything to cause her father to misunderstand. They didn't give themselves away either. It was impossible for him to discover anything.

Then why did he ask this question?

Ye Jian's heart was already in a whirl. She felt that this question was… not easy to answer.

The easy answer would be to just admit her relationship with Captain Xia directly.

But would she be criticized for dating so early?

The smart Ye Jian was stumped.

Seeing that she didn't reply for a long time, Mr. Fu was even more certain of his guess. His daughter really had a crush on her captain. She probably didn't answer him because she was too embarrassed to.

That was true. Girls always had their own secrets. Besides, she was still young, and the military school was very strict. It was better for him not to interfere.

It had only been a few days since he reunited with his daughter. He didn't understand many things about his daughter and her habits. He shouldn't ask about such personal matters for the time being to prevent his daughter from feeling put off.

"I think that he's a good captain. I can tell that he's a capable young man from when we met last time. I don't have any other intentions. I'm just asking."

Mr. Fu felt that he was too impatient, so he continued, "I heard from your commander-in-chief that your captain plans to only get married at 35 years old. That's still early. He's only 26 this year. It's still eight or nine years away."

"A man should prioritize his career. It's good to get married late too. Oh right, your military school doesn't allow people to date, right?"

What Mr. Fu didn't know was that his words didn't ease Ye Jian's heart. Instead, it made Ye Jian's heart pound furiously.

Her intuition told her that… something must have happened that made Mr. Fu suspicious. However, she couldn't guess what exactly happened.

Because she always maintained a proper distance from Captain Xia and didn't do any cheap tricks between lovers in front of Mr. Fu… Ye Jian didn't understand her father for a while.

"It's not explicitly stated, but everyone knows it and we keep it in mind."

When Ye Jian said this, she actually felt awkward. She did remember it in her heart, but in terms of actions… Cough, she had already violated it.

Fortunately, she didn't delay her homework and training. If not, her future would be ruined.

Mr. Fu nodded thoughtfully. He felt more at ease then.

After less than 72 hours of interaction, he could tell that his daughter was very self-controlled and humble. Although there was a sense of distance between her eyebrows, her eyes were as bright as the moon.

His daughter didn't have the upbringing of her parents. But because there were so many kind-hearted people taking care of her, he got the daughter he saw today.

Humble, capable, open-minded, polite… He could see the beauty in his daughter.

'Red Plum, do you see this? Our daughter is so outstanding and perfect. How good would it be if you could see her with your own eyes?'

"You're an opinionated child. I'm at ease… I'm truly at ease." Mr. Fu patted the back of Ye Jian's hand lightly. "Sleep for a while. I'll wake you up when we reach."

He didn't let Ye Jian see his sorrow. He sighed softly, almost inaudibly.

As a special forces soldier, Ye Jian had a sharp hearing. Although the sigh was soft, she heard it.
