Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

At 6 am in the morning, Ye Jian jogged into the school. She was the first student to arrive.

Princ.i.p.al Chen reached earlier than her. He had a letter in his hand. He stood at the gates and waited patiently for Ye Jian to come.

After some time, a figure wearing the spring school uniform jogged over. The dawn light engulfed the figure and she looked like an eagle spreading its wings. The wings were new but she could soar in the sky with it.

Princ.i.p.al Chen took the letter out and looked at it. When Ye Jian was about to reach him, he placed the letter behind his back and waited for her to come.

Ye Jian saw the princ.i.p.al standing at the gate. She hastened her pace. “Why are you so early? Are you here to welcome the new students?”

“Dean Ke is in charge of the new students. I came here to wait for you.” Princ.i.p.al Chen sized up Ye Jian. He had not seen her for a few days. He smiled brightly. “The army treated you well. You grew taller.”

He pa.s.sed the letter in his hand over. “The sender is Xia Jinyuan. Little girl, did you become a penpal of Major Xia?”

His words were strong and clear. Yet, it was not too overpowering. This person knew when to keep a low profile. This Major Xia… seemed to have a special feeling towards this girl.

Ye Jian was shocked. He even wrote her a letter?

She took over the letter. It was indeed Xia Jinyuan’s handwriting. She didn’t know why he wrote a letter to her.

She wanted to tear open the letter but Princ.i.p.al Chen stopped her. “Look at it later. I have something to tell you. Let’s go to my office.”
