To the point that even after his son had made a name for himself, he still wanted to get an impressive daughter-in-law.
As to the reason behind it, itâs all due to the empathy of the parents. Even though Supreme Commander Xia was a Supreme Commander of the military, he was still a father and would still worry about his children.
The occupation of Xia Jinyuan could be said as the most dangerous occupation in the world. Crossing the burning threshold of life and death, breaking through sulfur and the flames of war, itâs hard to say that his son would sacrifice his life someday, and his remains couldnât even be recovered.
Being in a relationship with a man like this was extremely unfair to a woman.
When youâre tired, when youâre in pain, when youâre having fun, your man wouldnât necessarily be by your side.
Just like his ex-wife. Since the moment his ex-wife was pregnant till she gave birth to Xia Jinyuan, he had not once accompanied her for a prenatal checkup, he had never gone shopping with her, he didnât even know about it when she was giving birth, and that was also what made the marriage between him and his ex-wife reach its end.
Precisely because of that, Supreme Commander Xia wanted someone who had similar interests, similar goals, similar directions as his son, who was also very impressive in all aspects, as his daughter-in-law.
Seeing how Ye Jian was only chuckling with pursed lips, her obsidian pupils were sparkling with perseverance, Supreme Commander Xia laughed as he said: âLittle Ye ah, donât you laugh, thatâs what I really think!â
âXia Jinyuan isnât an obedient one, I as his father know him best. Uncle is the third child in the family, your Eldest Uncle is six years older than Uncle, and your Second Uncle is four years older than Uncle, Youngest Uncle is three years younger, and thereâs a Youngest Aunt who is fifty-four this year, donât see how Uncle is ranked third in the house, this Xia Jinyuan is the youngest one in the family!â
âHeâs been spoiled rotten by the elders, his temper is terrible, and he liked to cause mayhem, other people do good things without leaving their name, but in his case, he does bad things without leaving his name! He had always been smart since young and had many ideas. You better not get fooled by his current looks; youâll have to know him better, only then can you fight him in all aspects.â
âUncle will be handing him to you now. Teach him properly if he makes mistakes, and continue developing his good parts, allowing him to shine brightly. Anyways, Uncle only had one thing to tell you, if he doesnât become obedient, thereâs no need for you to beat or scold him; you can get your marriage certificate from the Civil Affairs Bureau, and also your divorce certificate. While you will still remain the daughter of I, Xia Xinhui.â
â¦â¦
To go as far as this, the green veins on Xia Jinyuanâs forehead were already popping out.
âDad, you can relax, you can get both a marriage certificate and divorce certificate from the Civil Affairs Bureau, and thatâs just you. While I am certain that something like this was 100% hereditary, but dad is dad, and Iâm me. After your hundredth birthday, I, as well as Ye Jian, will bring our children and grandchildren to pay our respects to you.â
Suddenly, Ye Jian realized where Xia Jinyuanâs naughtiness had stemmed from⦠thereâs a high possibility that he got it from Supreme Commander Xia.
One pranks his son, the other pranks his dad; this was how blood-related father and son work!n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Supreme Commander Xia also didnât get angry; his voice carried a hint of teasing as he joyfully cheered: âThen Iâll be waiting, if you dare treat Little Ye badly, I believe thereâs a huge crowd outside willing to take your place.â
âXia Jinyuan, ah, relax a bit. Our military has always had more men than we have women; the outstanding male soldiers pop up in bundles. If you donât become obedient before Little Ye, I donât mind acting as a matchmaker for once. How about Qin Familyâs Qin Xiu? Heâs not inferior compared to you, huh.â
After all, he was the Supreme Commander; he never pulls his punches.
And Xia Jinyuan also wasnât one to back down, hearing that, he cocked his brows as he looked at Ye Jian smilingly, âLittle fox, you see that? In the future, we canât let him bring up our kids; Iâm scared weâll end up with the father and daughter turning into a nemesis.â
Ye Jian was thinking quietly: Thereâs already a case in front of meâ¦
