Before he met his cousin-in-law, he had to hurry up.

Ye Jian glared at him. At the same time, she raised her hand and covered half of her face. She used her actions to reject his request.

But who was Lieutenant Colonel Xia? He knew what he wanted to do, and it was such an important thing… he must do it!

Even though Ye Jian raised her hand to cover her face, a mischievous smile flashed past Xia Jinyuan's eyes. He suddenly leaned over and planted a firm kiss on Ye Jian's lips.

His actions were very fast. Their lips touched for a short moment before he withdrew immediately. It was so fast that Ye Jian only felt a warm and soft touch on her lips when he had already sat up straight.

Lieutenant Colonel Xia was happy. He clicked his tongue and was satisfied.

Ye Jian didn't know whether to laugh or cry. She wasn't angry that she was sneakily kissed by him. They had been apart for more than 60 days from May to July. Kissing was a common thing between boyfriend and girlfriend. As for her and Captain Xia… they only kissed a few times throughout the year.

"I need to make use of the time. My cousin-in-law is the boss. He won't allow me to take advantage of his cousin. Moreover… my cousin-in-law isn't someone to be trifled with. I'm afraid that if I hold your hand, I'll have to pay the price of breaking a rib."

Lieutenant Colonel Xia said with a sad expression. There was a hint of sadness in his voice.

With the Demon King watching over him, what he said was not impossible!

Ye Jian blinked when she heard this. When he was caught off guard… she kissed his handsome face heavily. Then, she wiped her mouth and said, "My mouth is filled with the taste of oil paint."

"That's simple. After we descend, I'll wash the paint and let you kiss me again. I guarantee that there won't be the taste of paint anymore!"

"Captain Xia, you can rest now. Don't have unrealistic dreams."

"You were the one who said that your mouth is filled with the taste of oil paint. Since that's the case, I must give you a kiss that doesn't taste like oil paint."

Ye Jian remained silent. 12 o'clock in the morning was a good time to sleep!

She didn't reply. Xia Jinyuan, who had a deep smile in his eyes, held her hand gently and rubbed it with his slender fingers. "You soft-hearted little thing. I just said a few things and you became soft-hearted toward me…"

He just wanted to kiss her. Even if it was just a light kiss, it was enough.

The corners of Ye Jian's lips were raised. In the end, she lay on his shoulder and fell asleep. Her eyes were relaxed like the crescent moon in the sky. Her face was so peaceful that Xia Jinyuan didn't want to fall asleep. He just wanted to look at her properly.

However, he had to sleep. They still had more than 20 days of training. They had to sleep well.

At 4 am, the helicopter arrived three kilometers away from its destination. Xia Jinyuan tied the lift rope and crossed his legs. He slid down with his combat gloves and pulled the rope into a straight line. In the blink of an eye, he landed.

Ye Jian came down after him. She landed on her feet swiftly too.

He used the flashlight's red light to flash it three times. The helicopter pulled up and turned around. Soon, it was out of their sight.

"Can you give me your hand now?" There were only the two of them around. Lieutenant Xia took off his combat gloves and reached out his hand to smile at Ye Jian. "We can hold hands and walk back. The three-kilometer journey will take 20 minutes. We can hold hands for 20 minutes."

They didn't have much time to hold hands.

This time, Ye Jian didn't reject him. When she reached out her hand, she suddenly changed her trajectory. She wrapped her arms around his neck and pounced on him.
