Chapter 1106: Scared

Translator: Henyee Translations  Editor: Henyee Translations

Ye Jian was all the more unwilling to let Uncle Gen return to the village. After her training ended, she wiped the sweat off her forehead and rejected the idea too. “Staying here is indeed not as comfortable as staying in the village. There’s no one to chat with. However, you’ve only been here for two days. Why are you going back so soon? I won’t stop you from going back but you need to rest properly first.”

“From our village to the province, it takes 18 hours. How can you endure the journey without resting properly? I heard you coughing at dawn.”

Four years had passed and Uncle Gen became much older. He was like a pine tree that was gradually getting old. His back was still straight but he was already showing signs of withering. Whenever Ye Jian looked at the elder that changed her life, her eyes would turn teary.

“You really have a domineering aura when you speak now. Even your gaze is becoming powerful.” Uncle Gen coughed softly as he spoke. His voice was hoarse, like a broken air-blower that lost its power. “Grandpa is old. I don’t feel comfortable living outside. I miss my home.”

When a person got old, he would want to go back to their home. When he stayed outside, no matter how comfortable it was, he would find his home better.

Uncle Gen’s coughing could be heard coming from the living room. It was sometimes loud and sometimes soft. His back bent down a little too. Looking at the figure of this old man that appeared skinny even when he was wearing cotton-padded clothes, Ye Jian’s heart suddenly dropped.

Thereafter, an uncontrollable sense of anxiety slapped her body like a huge wave. She almost staggered and fell because of this emotion. She felt so anxious she grabbed Uncle Gen’s skinny and withered hand instantly and said in a tense and soft voice, “If you really want to go back, let me accompany you.”

Grade twelve started school a week earlier because they needed remedial. She could take leave from her teachers and come back after school officially started.

“Jian!” Uncle Gen suppressed the itch that was caused by the cough and said sternly, “School is school. Once you start school, you should attend lessons properly. How can you just do what you want?”

“School has its own rules and classes have their rules too. How can a potential soldier that the military has high hopes for disregard rules so blatantly?”

Looking at the elder that was always strict with rules, Ye Jian, whose eyes had turned red because of her anxiousness, pursed her lips tightly as she couldn’t say anything. She wasn’t able to say any of her thoughts out.

In her past life, Ye Jian only knew that Uncle Gen had already passed away for a few years after she returned to the village secretly after she finished school. She didn’t ask how many years it had been. She also saw Ye Ying’s glamorous life when she went back. She looked at her own haggard state and decided to leave the village silently.

That year, she was 21 years old.

Now, she was 18 years old.

There were less than three years left!

At this moment, her heart was filled with much regret. She regretted not going back more often to accompany this elder who changed her life. She regretted why… she didn’t think of this!

That wasn’t right, that wasn’t right. She was able to live her life again. Did this mean that Grandpa Gen didn’t have to walk the same path again? Would he be able to live a long life?

This was what she thought about but when she saw the scrawny hands that were holding the gun, Ye Jian’s heart started beating irregularly. She felt so anxious she just wanted to keep the elder here.

“The university entrance examination is coming soon. Jian, you can’t let down your guard, right? If you want to accompany me, you have to wait until your university entrance examination ends. At that time, I will welcome you back with firecrackers.”

Uncle Gen could tell that Ye Jian was afraid but he didn’t know what she was afraid of. He just thought that she was scared because she couldn’t bear to leave him.
