Reborn at Boot Camp: General, Don t Mess Around! - Chapter 559

His scent was all around her and the tip of her nose. The faint smell of mint was unable to cover his strong masculinity. The thought of pressing twice… Ye Jian could only feel that her heart was trembling continuously.

She even began to breathe lightly, for fear that she would disturb him. As for her eyes… Ye Jian knew that she didn’t dare to look at him at all.

“We can go now. The Head is still waiting for us.” She was acting so unnatural, pure like a piece of white paper. With a profound smile in his eyes, Xia Jinyuan patted her shoulder, “There’s a two-hour break after the meeting. Today, you will still need to be with Miss Betty and her classmates.”

Ye Jian, who was frozen stiff, immediately got up anxiously and secretly adjusted her breathing quickly as she watched his back and followed him.

Qin Xiu was translating a piece of document to the Head sentence by sentence, “… the reclamation equipment will be provided by the Chinese, a total of…” This was a reclamation contract between the two countries. Once the contract is completed, the Chinese Ministry of Commerce will come forward to negotiate until the leaders have signed and exchanged the contracts.

The reclamation work is undoubtedly beneficial to China. Although it might seem like a loss to China because they were providing the equipment and funds, in the long run, the Chinese would have a legal right to use it for thirty years. Moreover, the resources in this area would also be legally owned by China.

Once it is successful, the Chinese will have a safe and reliable harbor for its future warships. At the same time, it will promote trade between China and Pakistan – a win-win situation.

The Head nodded occasionally as he listened, and would sometimes point out terms that were not beneficial to China, “…the area near the sea. ‘Near’. The distance must be quantified with numbers. It must be clear…”

Whenever the Head pointed out something, Qin Xiu would immediately make a note on the contract and would never miss a single word.

Everyone had limited sleeping time. Although it was said to be a seven-day trip, they knew that the sooner it ended, the better. Unannounced visits were more spontaneous, unlike scheduled ones which had clear itineraries.

“Ye Jian will be going to visit Miss Betty’s school this afternoon. Tell her later to rest at the hotel in the morning. There’s no need to accompany me.”

The Head had made adjustments to Ye Jian’s schedule. Ye Jian was supposed to visit a school yesterday, but because of what had happened the night before, the government of Pakistan had canceled the trip and suggested that Ye Jian and Miss Betty be hospitalized for observation.

The Chinese side refused and secretly arranged for Ye Jian to execute the mission along with the Special Forces.

She had to rest today morning. After all, she’s still a student, not a real soldier.

After putting the contract back into the folder and passing it to the staff, Qin Xiu was humble and spoke with restraint, “According to the plan, you can end the visit tomorrow. Do you want to return home in advance?”

“I would have forgotten about it if not for you. We will leave tomorrow night. There’s no need to stay any longer.” The Head looked at the time and it was already six in the morning. “Go and see the major general’s condition. I have a few words for him.”

They were referring to the members of the Xueyu unit. When Qin Xiu came over, the major general had just ended his conversation with Ye Jian.

After stopping by at the Head’s room for ten minutes, Ye Jian returned to her room.

She had a morning to rest, which meant that she would not need to face Xia Jinyuan… Covering her face with her blanket, Ye Jian heaved a long sigh of relief and patted her flushed cheeks… She could finally not face Xia Jinyuan, at least for now.
