Chapter 2256 Tenderness

Ye Jian didn’t answer him; she left immediately behind him and only answered him when they got out.

Ye Jian looked at his epaulets, pursing the corners of her mouth. She took a few steps, frowned, and hesitated for a while before asking in a puzzled way, “Major Xia, why does the Elite Platoon maintain the same rank outside?”

“Because we have to perform many dangerous missions. Once captured, the higher the military rank, the more dangerous it will be for us. Sometimes, we not only have to be careful of the people outside but also the people inside. The missions performed by the Elite Platoon are state secrets, and our country has many spies; they’re everywhere, so keeping our military rank unchanged is also a disguise.”

The change of military rank to the outside world was not a major secret matter, so he could tell Ye Jian.

“You have also seen that the only promotions to us are Army Major General, Naval Commander, and Commander-in-Chief Xia. The Elite Platoon and the Storm Commando are not affiliated with any units. The only leaders facing us are these three leaders. This is also to protect our lives.”

“And you, if you are awarded the rank of Captain after graduation, you can actually be promoted to the rank of Major directly with your military merits. However, according to our country’s rank promotion system, the rank of Lieutenant to Colonel is limited to one level for 4 years. It is possible to be promoted directly to Major after joining the team, or you can also wait until four years before being promoted to Major.”

“Next time, I hope I will be the one sitting down and watching you get promoted.”

Before coming out, Xia Jinyuan said solemnly.

Ye Jian raised her lips and smiled at the man she loved, “I also hope and look forward to that day.”

“Let’s look forward to it together.” Looking at her with a smile, the warmth and affection in their eyes met.

The love that belonged to Ye Jian and Xia Jinyuan was never only having one party strong, while the other weak. They were chasing evenly matched love; they could be the support of the other when the other was in danger and could also be side by side when the other was at the top.

Soon, the two of them joined Li Jinnian and went to the Commander-in-Chief Xia’s office together. At this time, Deputy Chief of Staff Du was accompanied by Mrs. Li, who had a terrible headache and had to rest at home after being totally pissed off by Ye Ying.

“Don’t worry about the outside affairs these days; take care of yourself first.” Putting the boiled Chinese medicine on the bedside table, Deputy Chief of Staff Du sighed, “You already have enough things to worry about the company and home. Temporary put aside the outside affairs and deal with them when you’re feeling better, ok?”

“What kind of waves can a little girl make? Now that she has returned to Yunnan Province, she is out of sight. What else do you have to worry about? Old Xia’s son, on the other hand, you have to pay more attention to him.”

Mrs. Li, who had a headache, was lying on the bed with a warm towel on her forehead. Hearing the words, her eyes became sharp, and she said coldly, “My image is thrown away, flushed down the drain. And it won’t get any better just because she has gone back to Yunnan Province!”

“She dares to play with me and embarrass me, huh? If I don’t show her how powerful I am, then anyone will think they can easily climb up and step on my feet! Don’t worry about things on my side; I have my own plans.”

“As for Old Xia’s son…” Taking off the warm towel from her forehead, Mrs. Li’s face became more serious, “I asked Shuman if she had gone to the hospital to see him. She said she went, but she didn’t see anyone. Old Xia said he should be visiting his comrades.”

“Is it that you thought too much? It’s not like you don’t know how bad Old Xia’s son is. Now that he is wearing the military uniform, how can he not pretend to be good otherwise? How would Old Xia feel?”

Deputy Chief of Staff Du shook his head, “It’s not a pretense, but the aura he brought out. Yes, he was bad, but he doesn’t seem so in the army.”
