Chapter 1106 - Afraid
Chapter 1106: Afraid
Ye Jian1 didn’t want Old Uncle Gen to return to the village, she wiped the sweat on her forehead once the training was over, she repeatedly objected: “It’s indeed not as carefree living here compared to the village, there isn’t anyone to chat with you, but you’ve only been here for two days, why are you in a rush to return? I will not object if you want to return, as long as you have a good rest.”
”It takes 18 hours from our village to the province, how can you endure without taking any rest? I even heard you coughing early in the morning.”
Old Uncle Gen had aged a lot during the past four years. He was like an aging pine tree, although his back was still pencil straight, he revealed signs of withering. Ye Jian looked at the old man who changed her current life, there was sourness in her eyes.
”You lass have some temperament when you speak right now, there’s even some temperament in your gaze,” Old Uncle Gen coughed softly as he spoke, he was like a broken blower, rustling as if it lost all motivation, “Grandpa is old, I feel uncomfortable living outside, I miss home.”
When people age, they will think of returning to their roots. When staying out for a day, no matter how comfortable it felt, it wouldn’t be as comfortable as their hometown.
Old Uncle Gen’s coughing could be heard from the living room, he couldn’t help but bend his back. Seeing the old man’s thin body in the cotton-padded clothes, Ye Jian suddenly felt a thump in her heart.
After that, she couldn’t help but panic like a wave splashing on her body, splashing her to the point where she couldn’t stand firmly. She felt flustered, she held Old Uncle Gen’s thin hands and said in a soft voice: “I’ll accompany you back if you really want to return, alright?”
The twelfth graded started one week in advance to catch up with their studies, she could apply leave from the teachers and return when classes officially start.
”Lass Jian!” Old Uncle Gen suppressed the itch in his throat, he said sternly: “Your school has started, attended classes well. How can you do whatever you want?”
”The School has school rules, the class has class rules, as a reserved soldier valued by the military, how can you disregard discipline and rules!”
Seeing the old man who was stern to her when it came to rules, her eyes turned red in panic. Ye Jian wasn’t able to say more, she murmured but was unable to say anything.
In her previous life, when Ye Ying returned to the village after school, she secretly returned to the village and found out Old Uncle Gen had passed away for a few years. She didn’t inquire how many years it had been, she secretly returned to the village and saw Ye Ying in glory, she then looked at her own desolation as she secretly left the village.
She was twenty-one that year.
Right now, she was already eighteen.
There was less than three years between eighteen years old and twenty-one years old!
At that moment, she was feeling very regretful. She regretted why she didn’t return to the village during the winter break to accompany this elder who changed her life, regretting why…… she didn’t think about it!
That’s not right, she could do it all over again in this lifetime, does it mean that Old Uncle Gen did not need to follow the path of her previous life? Is it possible for him to live a long life?
She had such thoughts in her heart, but seeing Old Uncle Gen holding a gun with his thin hands, Ye Jian was so flustered that her heartbeat was irregular. She was so flustered that she wanted to keep this elder behind.
”The college entrance examination is only so long. Lass Jian, you cannot take it easy, alright? If you wish to accompany grandpa, you have to wait until the college entrance exam is over. At that time, grandpa will light some firecrackers and await your return.”
Old Uncle Gen can tell Ye Jian was feeling afraid, but he didn’t know what she was feeling afraid about. He thought she was feeling afraid because she was reluctant about his departure.
