Chapter 243: Small-minded.
The winter in the port city is wet and cold, with continuous rainy weather mixed with damp cold air.
"Commander Yan, welcome to Gangcheng!"
"I'm Zhang Zhida, sent by the army to pick you up. You can call me Xiaoda."
Zhang Zhida, who came to pick up the person, saluted respectfully.
There is no one in the army who is not curious about this legendary living devil.
Unlike the ferocious look he had imagined, Zhang Zhida could not have imagined that Yan Ye was actually so young, appearing to be only in his twenties.
No one could have imagined that the military exploits achieved by the united men were actually a handsome young man.
Zhang Zhida wanted to say a few more words, but the man looked terrifyingly indifferent, and his whole body seemed to be shrouded in loneliness.
Yan Ye didn't bring much luggage. He wore a neat leather jacket and jeans, a very casual combination, but with his broad shoulders and narrow waist, he managed to wear it in a different style.
Just standing there, she attracted the attention of several passers-by.
Yan Ye was holding a bag in his hand. Seeing this, Zhang Zhida raised his hand to take the small bag from the man.
"I can hold it myself." The man said in a distant tone, and just held the bag in his hand tighter.
Zhang Zhida was stunned for a moment, then nodded blankly, thinking to himself that no wonder those people in the capital’s troops said that Yan Ye was a living devil.
He is so cold and has no warmth at all. His face always looks cold and indifferent. He looks like a living devil.
The troops in the port city are different from those in the capital. They are set up in the city center, the most lively and prosperous place.
After getting in the car, it was eerily quiet throughout the journey.
Zhang Zhida secretly observed the man through the rearview mirror from time to time. Yan Ye never put down the bag in his hand, but just took out a thin piece of paper from the bag and rubbed it carefully with his fingers.
He looked carefully and saw that the man's extremely cold black eyes were still watery.
Zhang Zhida shook his head and thought he was overthinking. How could a gifted man like Commander Yan be so sad and nostalgic?
The jeep quickly drove into the troops.
Yan Ye got out of the car carrying the small bag he was carrying, still looking serious.
Zhang Zhida led his men forward and just as they reached the office door, they heard a fierce quarrel inside.
"The He family has been bullied like this, and you're still going to hide it from me?"
Inside the house, a powerful voice was transmitted directly to the outside of the door.
He Zhishu pinched his brows and looked up at the old man, his tone very helpless, "Grandpa, it was Xiaoyu who did the wrong thing first."
Zhang Zhida paused and felt a little embarrassed for a moment.
Logically speaking, if it was official business, he could just take Yan Ye and avoid it, but it sounded like it was the He family's private matter.
Zhang Zhida turned his head, and before he could think of what to say, he didn't expect Yan Ye to walk around him and go straight to the door.
“Knock, knock, knock.”
There were three knocks on the door, and the quarrel in the room stopped.
When He Zhishu opened the door, he saw Yan Ye standing at the door. "Excuse me, who are you?"
As he asked, Yan Ye looked through the crowd, his black eyes met the gaze of the old man in the room, and nodded as a greeting.
"What are you doing standing at the door? Come in first." He Zhengguo recognized the person and stood up to greet him.
"Zhishu, this is the Yan Ye that grandpa mentioned to you before."
He Zhishu was about to nod, but when he heard the name Yan Ye, he paused.
He had heard the other person's name several times from his grandfather, but he didn't expect that he was such a young person.
He is still a young man who looks rebellious.
He Zhishu's eyes flashed with surprise, and he extended his hand and said politely, "Comrade Yan, I have heard of your name for a long time. Hello."
Yan Ye nodded, shook hands politely and then quickly withdrew his hand.
He Zhishu couldn’t help but feel a little amused. He felt that the other person was just as wild as his name suggested. He was too proud and arrogant to even give a glance to others.
"Xiao Ye, I asked you to come over and take care of these new recruits in the army, but you've been busy and had no time. Now that you're here, let's have a good time together tonight."
"I'll call home now and ask them to prepare the meal. You don't have to live in the army these days. There are many empty rooms in the He family."
He Zhengguo seemed to be unaware of Yan Ye's arrogant and indifferent attitude, and he excitedly pulled the man aside to greet him.
"Mr. He is so kind."
Yan Ye frowned. He actually didn't want to deal with the He family. They were all old-fashioned and child marriage was still popular.
What Yan Ye hates most now is the idea of child marriage. If it weren't for the girl and Yan Shuli's damned child marriage standing in the way, he would have married someone long ago.
The man was reluctant in his heart, but his tone was also polite. "Sorry to bother you, Mr. Yan. You don't need a room. I have already booked a place to stay."
Having said that, he actually hadn't planned to book a room at all.
He traveled thousands of miles from the capital to the port city, and was only given three days.
Three days, that was all he hoped for.
Even if he had to sleep in the police station, he had to search every corner of the port city to find the person.
Yan Ye thought aimlessly, clenched the bag in his hand, and patted the non-existent dust on it.
He Zhishu was keenly aware of the man’s concern for the small bag in his hand. It was just an ordinary bag, which looked old and had been there for a while, so it was worth taking good care of.
A hint of curiosity arose in his heart, but his good upbringing prevented him from asking further questions. He just took a few more glances.
He Zhishu didn't expect that he just kept his eyes on the small bag for a few more seconds, but Yan Ye still noticed it.
Yan Ye hid the bag in his hand behind his back, feeling a little unhappy. "Comrade He seems to be very curious about my bag?"
Being caught on the spot and pointed out bluntly, He Zhishu nodded and admitted frankly, "I am a little curious."
Yan Ye's face darkened, and the chill around him grew even stronger.
The atmosphere suddenly became quiet. He Zhengguo stood up and tried to smooth things over by saying, "Zhishu just came back from abroad, so he may not have adapted yet."
He Zhishu realized belatedly that he had offended the other party unintentionally, and bowed slightly, apologetically.
"I'm really sorry, I'm He, I'm being rude, but seeing how much you cherish it, I couldn't help but take a few more glances out of curiosity."
Yan Ye admitted that he was indeed narrow-minded. Things belonged to a girl, and others were not allowed to take even a second look at them.
