Chapter 1131: I Chase It Because I Like It

Ye Jian, who was only a little distance away from becoming skinny to the bones, smiled. Her eyes were so bright they looked like the sun at this time of the day. It was glistening with a mesmerizing glow. She said, “Let’s go back, Uncle Chen.”

She was really hungry. But, she had reached the limit of her hunger so her stomach felt loaded. She wanted to eat and her body needed food too but her stomach was rejecting it.

“You need to eat some white porridge and let the easily digestible white porridge help you resume your gastric motility. You won’t need to participate in any training for the next week. Let your stomach heal first,” Principal Chen smiled as he reminded Ye Jian. The two figures stepped on the rays of sunlight and moved further away.

On this military path, Ye Jian used her perseverance and her willpower again and again as she conquered the difficulties that surpassed her age.

When the other students were still sitting in their classrooms and studying hard, she had already found her future path and was walking on it without any regrets.

It would take two hours to travel from the chemical defense regiment to the city. Ye Jian didn’t go back immediately. She went to the infirmary of the chemical defense regiment to get a simple checkup and then drank a bowl of plain white porridge. The regimental commander of the chemical defense regiment and the political commissar were staring at her intently so she put down her empty bowl and smiled as she said, “After I got used to it, it felt like nothing. In ancient times, before fire was discovered, humans ate raw food too. I felt that I returned to my original nature in the past few days.”

A young lady who experienced hunger for seven days used ‘returned to my original nature’ to summarize her hunger training... Her heart was really big!

“On the first day of your school’s military training, I knew that you weren’t simple. It has only been two years but you’ve already progressed so far. You are better than the soldiers that had been in my regiment for two years. Ye Jian, good job!”

The political commissar couldn’t help but exclaim. He still remembered that year when she wore her camouflage uniform and appeared in front of everyone with an indomitable aura. She performed the military postures with her instructors and earned a round of applause. At that time, there was still a slight immature look on her face.

Now, even when she was sitting down, she still exuded the dignity of a soldier. It was impossible to disregard it. This was the first time he saw someone being able to do this at the age of 18!

When other people complimented her, Ye Jian was always able to remain calm and not be proud. She smiled politely and replied, “I like it so I chase it. I will never easily give up something I like. Entering the military is my dream. Wearing the military uniform is my goal. I have never given up in the past few years.”

“Success relies on perseverance. Your spirit is worth praising. You have persevered for so many years. It’s something all of us should learn!” The regimental commander had a deep impression of Ye Jian. Yesterday, his old comrade came to his office and told him with a mysterious expression that a girl whom he really wanted to let her stay at the chemical defense regiment as a soldier would be coming. He immediately thought of Ye Jian from the Provincial No.1 Middle School.

He said the name he guessed and his old comrade looked at him in surprise. “How do you know? Did the superiors inform you?”

He had sent many students off but the only student that his old comrade remembered was Ye Jian from Provincial No.1 Middle School.

That young lady was indeed impressive. Among all the students, she was the only one that left a strong impression.

It had been two years since they last met and the soldier’s aura on her was getting stronger. She is becoming more and more outstanding too... He really wanted to snatch her to the chemical defense regiment.

“Student Ye, do you have a military unit you want to go to? If not, can I have a chat with you along with the political commissar? You can use it as a reference.”

The regimental commander of the chemical defense regiment turned into Grandma Wolf[1] and smiled gently and amiably. “Let’s talk about our chemical defense regiment. The chemical weapons will definitely enchant you. Our chemical defense regiment...”
