Chapter 85 - It is My Responsibility to Protect You (2/2)

Xia Jinyuan parked his jeep in the storm. Instead of getting off to check on the suspects, he said to Ye Jian, “Judging from your learning ability, it shouldn’t be difficult for you to drive, right?”

In case anything occurred, she could drive and leave right away.

As a vigilant soldier, Xia Jinyuan always made a backup plan.

While Ye Jian was slightly raising her eyebrows, he began to explain how to start his vehicle and drive it. “Step on the accelerator to go, apply the brake to stop. You can control the steering wheel freely; turn to the left to go to the left side; turn to the right to go to the right side.”

Ye Jian sighed in her mind as he was explaining. She thought, he might be the least responsible coach in the world, for he obviously didn’t care about the safety of his student.

“You mean you get off while I say inside to watch?” Ye Jian sat still with great patience, observing the situation outside the window at the same time.

However, from the look on her face, she had no intention of letting Xia Jinyuan get off the jeep. With a complicated smile, she said, “Captain Xia, I don’t think that you are doing this for the sake of my safety. We have worked together twice. I can’t say that I have become your comrade, but I’d a.s.sume that we have become partners.”

Ye Jian omitted the rest of her sentence. She believed that Xia Jinyuan was intelligent enough to understand what she meant.

How could Xia Jinyuan not understand her words? He had, after all, realized how shrewd the girl was.

But under the current situation, Xia Jinyuan restrained his subtle smile. “Ye Jian, I am now ordering you to stay put and wait for my instructions!” His voice was deep and cold as if he was talking to his soldier.

“While we are partners, you are still a student. I have seen your talents and capabilities. But I am a soldier, and you are a student. Soldiers are to safeguard our country and protect the civilians!”

“Including you, your family and your friends! Protecting you is my honorable responsibility and a principle that our soldiers should stick to!”
