Chapter 3948: Awkward Together

Editor: Henyee Translations

Ye Jian was speechless. She saw that his actions had obviously frozen. She thought that he would stop this… awkward process. Who knew that he still needed to complete it?

What sort of encounter was this? He was the only one who could make this possible!

Before the sound of running water could be heard, Ye Jian buried her face in the grass that was emitting the rotten smell of dead leaves. At the same time, she stretched out her fingers and slowly… covered her ears.

It was useless to cover her ears, though. They were so close to each other so she could still hear everything. It was just that… it sounded a little softer.

After settling everything silently, Xia Jinyuan tidied his pants silently and walked to Ye Jian.

She was lying down while he was standing. At first, he had many things to say. However, because of his matter, the atmosphere became awkward. He didn’t know what to say!

Ye Jian didn’t know what to say either!

Her face was burning!

It was extremely awkward, and it felt like the moment lasted forever…

They were happy to see each other, but they were too embarrassed to approach. It was awkward.

How could they remain silent like this? In the end, the one who broke the silence was the thick-skinned Lieutenant Colonel Xia.

He lowered his head and looked at the figure that had merged with the ground. He said softly, “They haven’t come out. You need to wait a little longer.”

“Also, stand up. This is a blind spot. They… can’t see you.”

He could only hug her properly if she stood up.

Ye Jian knew that this was a blind spot. When she heard his voice, she chose a blind spot to hide so that she could… take a good look at him.

Xia Jinyuan, who was waiting for her to get up, looked around, especially in the direction of the wooden house. Even though both of them were in a blind spot, he needed to be careful not to be discovered.

They didn’t have much time to meet. At most… five minutes. That was all.

He still had comrades who were risking their lives. He couldn’t disregard his comrades’ lives because of his personal matters. Five minutes. He and the little fox only had five minutes.

From now on, it was a five-minute countdown.

One minute was 60 seconds. Three minutes meant 180 seconds. He was already counting down in his heart.

179 seconds, 178 seconds, 177 seconds… One second passed, and Ye Jian slowly stood up. Her gaze wasn’t entirely on Xia Jinyuan. She stood up while being vigilant.

Before she could stand up completely, her arm was grabbed by a pair of strong hands. Before she could react, she fell into the arms of the man counting down in his heart.

The familiar refreshing smell enveloped her instantly. His smell surrounded the tip of her nose. His body temperature was also transmitted over in an instant, allowing her to feel his warmth.

It was the same warmth that made her feel at ease in the past. It made her yearn for it too.

Ye Jian’s vigilant gaze was blocked by Xia Jinyuan’s broad chest. It was the first time Ye Jian and Xia Jinyuan were hugging after a long time, but they didn’t share romantic words. Instead, she reminded him in a low voice, “Watch your surroundings carefully. Don’t let anyone see you.”

“I know. Don’t worry, I’m here with you,” the man who was hugging her replied to her very softly. As he spoke, he placed his hand on her face. “I’ll tell them later that Commander Minlai will arrive in about an hour. Your mission needs to be carried out before he arrives.

“My mission is easy. Your situation is more troublesome. Let’s just kill him with a shot. We have to decide according to the current situation.”
