Reborn at Boot Camp: General, Don’t Mess Around!

Chapter 5496: Chapter 5496: Disclosure

Qin Ying, still on the verge of testing the waters, had not expected Xia Jinyuan to suddenly open up, and for a moment, she was even taken aback.

Xia Jinyuan didn’t want his comrades-in-arms to worry about this later on, so he bluntly spoke up first, saying that it was quite suitable. He could take the responsibility for V8’s secrecy as if it were his own idea, to make Qin Ying feel more at ease.

”I am his Captain. I joined their team right after graduating from university and have been working with them for nearly seven years. I’ve known him for almost the same length of time. As a person, he’s not what you’d call honest, but he’s absolutely reliable. You can hit him or scold him, and he will definitely not talk back or retaliate.”

”With some proper adjustment, he’s sure to be a good husband and a good father in the future.”

He was so serious that it caught Qin Ying off guard. Clarifying their relationship, she quickly replied, ”He is my boyfriend, and I will naturally be understanding towards him. As long as it’s not something like having an affair, I won’t get angry over work-related secrets.”

”Your professions are special, and I’m very aware of that. Take my brother, for example; he works in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and also has a lot of matters to keep secret. Even my father can’t inquire about them. I’m very clear about this and don’t blame Old Yang.”

The Captain, Little Six from the Xia family, turns out to be their Old Yang’s Captain!

Qin Ying was saying this, but her heart was already in turmoil.

It’s ironic that her mother had described Xia Jinyuan as the capital city’s number one wastrel, saying whoever ended up with him would suffer, and that he was definitely just playing around and not serious.

On hearing this, her brother’s face had darkened instantly; if it wasn’t their mother, given his nature of not speaking unless necessary, and if he did, it would surely end with someone pinned against the wall – he would have practically plastered their madam to the wall – the kind that would need a shovel to get down!

What wastrel, what nonsense, what playing around, what not serious – she wanted to say, wasn’t her mother misled by someone?

She didn’t understand Xia Jinyuan at all, yet she acted as if she ”knew him very well.”

Now that Xia Jinyuan had clarified things and Qin Ying had openly spoken her mind, there was no need for V8 to step in; everything between the team and the family was already settled.

V8 was tearfully grateful.

At the critical moment, it was still their King of Q who was reliable!

Qin Ying had questions she wanted to ask V8, guessing that the couple in front of her would probably not want the four of them to travel together. After saying a few more words, Qin Ying took the initiative to say goodbye, ”We’ll go shop around in another store, and not interrupt your shopping. Since you’re both in the capital city recently, let’s get together properly once my old master gets discharged from the hospital. For today, goodbye, and we’ll talk more next time.”

Arm in arm with V8, she said her polite goodbyes with a touch of intimacy and waved to them.

Ye Jian could feel the intimacy in Qin Ying’s behavior, and her smile deepened a lot, ”Alright, we’ll chat next time.”

”Okay, then we’ll be off. See you around.”

”See you around.” Ye Jian waved, watching Qin Ying and V8 leave before turning to Xia Jinyuan with a smile, ”I guess Qin Ying knew from the start that there was something unusual about your relationship with V8. It’s a mystery to me why V8 insisted on keeping it secret.”

Carrying all the bags in his left hand, Xia Jinyuan laughed along, ”That’s why I hope the two of them can be together for a long time to come, to help improve the single situation in the team.”

Thinking of the large group of clearly outstanding comrades in the squadron who genuinely didn’t have girlfriends, Ye Jian felt sympathetic. Then, looking at Xia Jinyuan with the urgent look of an old father anxious to solve his single son’s marital issues, she couldn’t help but laugh out loud.
