3109 So Nervous The place where the old man lived was filled with leaders at the level of heads of state. The environment was beautiful. The small buildings were only visible behind the tall trees. Ye Jian felt that the air had become especially serious. She didn’t even dare to make a sound when she walked. In order to see the old man as soon as possible, Ye Jian took the earliest flight to the capital city. She took off at four in the morning and arrived at the capital city at six. At this moment, it was only a few minutes past eight. The guard in front suddenly stopped and saluted. Ye Jian, who was following behind, had already formed a conditioned reflex in her body. When she saw this, she immediately did the same action as the guard and saluted. It was a standard soldier’s posture. 𝗳𝐫𝚎𝗲𝚠𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝘃𝚎𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝗺 The person walking toward them was a leader at the level of a head of state. He was wearing a cotton and linen tai chi training uniform that had been washed until it was yellow. When he saw this, he said, “Good morning.” It was completely different from the seriousness he had when he spoke on television. Ye Jian looked straight ahead. She didn’t dare to look at the leader anymore. She only heaved a sigh of relief after the leader left. “Don’t be nervous. The leaders are very serious on television, but they’re very easy-going in life. Sometimes, they’ll even chat and laugh with us guards.” The guards were not ordinary guards. They all had top-notch skills. They were top experts in the field military unit. They were in charge of the safety of the leaders. Without top-notch skills, how could they have the right to enter this place? Ye Jian was only panting slightly, but the guard in front heard her clearly. “This is my first time here. I’m still a little nervous,” Ye Jian replied truthfully. How could she not be nervous? Even the air here was solemn. She had to be careful with her words and actions. The guard, who didn’t know Ye Jian’s identity, smiled and replied, “You’ll get used to it.” He didn’t say anything else until Ye Jian entered the small building where the old man lived. The old man knew that his granddaughter was back today. He, who didn’t sleep well, had been nagging for a long time. Uncle Fu, the butler, smiled and said, “At that time, you said that there was no need to trouble the higher-ups and there was no need to arrange for your granddaughter to enter the capital city. Why are you nagging now?” After changing the environment, the higher-ups were afraid that the old man wouldn’t be used to living here. Uncle Fu, who had been taking care of the old man, came along to this new place, along with the old man’s bed and daily necessities. They hoped that the old man wouldn’t feel unfamiliar and could rest in peace. The old man muttered, “Why isn’t she here yet? There’s no traffic jam.” He lay on the bed and sighed. He said to Uncle Fu, “In the past, there was nothing to look forward to. Every day is just like any other. When I pass one day, then so be it. I’d have nothing more to worry about. “It’s different now. I have something to look forward to. I have something to worry about. I’ve lived to this age, but I still want to live a few more decades so that I can watch my eldest granddaughter grow up. I want to see her get married and have children. “I have my eldest granddaughter with me now, but I’m getting older and older. I just hope that I can live longer and make my eldest granddaughter happier. “This child has a big heart. She values family very much. When I was hospitalized, she accompanied me for days. She would sneak over every night to see if my stats were normal. Once she was done confirming it, she would still be worried and stretch her finger over to check if I was breathing… Little Fu, my eldest granddaughter’s life was too tough and tiring in the past. She needs her family around her to accompany her.”
