Principal Chen was around 50 years old now. He had experienced many battlefields and wars too so there were many conversations he could have with u=Uncle Gen. Ye Jian would feel at ease if the two elders retired at the same place.

Uncle Gen agreed with her suggestion.

The soldiers that came to visit Uncle Gen would never appear in front of the villagers. The villagers were also used to Uncle Gen spending the festival by himself as he always relied on himself. Hence, Uncle Gen, Principal Chen, and a few officers from the military unit spent a lively Lantern Festival together.

The next day, before the sun came out, Principal Chen left Shuikou Village. Uncle Gen reminded him before he left, “Don’t tell Ye Jian that Grandma Ye came back to the village. I have Heiga accompanying me so normal people won’t dare to barge into my house.”

Uncle Gen smoked his pipe as he laughed and continued, “I feel peaceful and comfortable when I live alone. With Heiga around, no one will dare to disturb me.”

Heiga was the Tibetan Mastiff that placed its legs on Ye Jian’s shoulder the first time they met. Now, it was all grown up so it looked even more intimidating. It was true that normal villagers didn’t dare to get too close to it.

Sun Yaozu and Grandma Ye didn’t know that Uncle Gen had a Tibetan Mastiff with him. After they found out, they felt cold sweat on their back.

The weather in the village was noticeably colder than in the provincial city. After reaching the entrance of the village, Principal Chen didn’t want Uncle Gen to continue sending him. “Old Gen, there’s no need to send me any more. Yesterday, the military surgeon instructed you to keep your legs warm. After Ye Jian enters the military school, I will return to the village to accompany you.”

Principal Chen had no relatives, just like Uncle Gen. They were all alone in this world and had no descendants either. These two elders gave all their love to Ye Jian. Now, Ye Jian needed to go far away. They were able to release her without any worry to let her soar into the sky. Then, they would retire and enjoy the rest of their lives.

“I will wait for you to come back. At that time, we can walk in the mountains and tour around the fields. We can sometimes stay beside the phone and wait for Jian to call us.”

Principal Chen replied with hearty laughter. “Soon, soon. It’s the 2nd of March now. There are only a hundred days left before Jian’s university entrance examination. I will plan a fishing trip with you at that time.”

Before the sky turned bright, all the living creatures were still waiting to wake up. Principal Chen brought the dried goods from the village and returned to the provincial city.

Ye Jian was waiting for Principal Chen to come back. When she knew that Uncle Gen’s health was not bad, a smile appeared on her beautiful face. It was like the stream in the mountains, clear, bright, and refreshing.

“Uncle Chen, can I go back to the village on Labor Day? I want to go back to take a look. I haven’t gone back in a while so I miss home.”

She wasn’t able to make the decision herself since she had started the Special Forces skill training. There would be training every day and it couldn’t stop. If she wanted to go back, she needed to make preparations.

In the past, Principal Chen would agree. However, after Uncle Gen’s reminder, he couldn’t let her go.

He smiled and replied, “You are making things difficult for me. Before I came back, Uncle Gen reminded me that I must stop you from going back. He said that you should prepare for your university entrance examination properly. If you really want to go back, you have to wait until the end of your university entrance examination. You can go back with your results.”

“Uncle Gen’s health is good and he has Heiga accompanying him. You know that fellow. It’s fierce and smart. With it guarding him, you don’t have to worry!”

That was the truth. Heiga was the best guard.

Ye Jian didn’t raise this issue again. However, she would call Uncle Gen every three days to ask about his condition. Uncle Gen didn’t know if he should laugh or cry.

There was a week of holiday for Labor Day. Ye Jian carried her luggage and started her one week’s worth of ‘escape from death’ training.
