Chapter 472 (2/2)
Ye Jian put her luggage at her feet and saluted, “h.e.l.lo, I’m a student who came to the military area to report. This is the military letter and my access pa.s.s.”
She got out of the car and handed the military letter and access pa.s.s to the sentinel. With two rifles in front of her, what Ye Jian felt was not fear, but amiability.
The sentinel took the military letter and read it carefully. He didn’t allow her to enter immediately and looked at Ye Jian with cold eyes, “Please wait at the side, we will need to verify this.”
This was the normal process. Ye Jian smiled slightly and stood by the side, listening to the sentinel to verify and confirm before she was let in.
Wasn’t someone supposed to pick me up at the sentry post? Why isn’t there anyone?
The military area was heavily guarded at midnight. The street lights were on, illuminating every corner of the military area, showing the mystery, the grandeur of the country’s majesty in the hazy night.
The national emblem at the center of the gate was illuminated by a snow-white lamp. It was the brightest scenery in the night and the most solemn one too.
Someone strode across the military area in a hurry, and his tall figure brought with it a stern temperament. Ye Jian looked at the figure coming out of the shadows, walking past the sentry post, and then towards her.
A familiar mint fragrance, a familiar face… And a familiar soft smile that made her heart tremble.
“You… are the one picking me up?” Ye Jian felt a bit silly after asking. Since he was the one that came out, he would naturally be the one picking her up.
Xia Jinyuan took her luggage from her hand and smiled while he raised his eyebrow, “That’s right. I’m the one picking you up.”
