Chapter 344: Warplanes Flying Above She had no time to rest between the tests. She must finish in one go. Ye Jian was worried about Principal Chen’s stamina so she requested to complete her tests alone. “You want to try doing it alone?” Principal Chen finished cleaning his face and looked at the independent and strongwilled Ye Jian. His gaze was gentle as he said, “You want to do it alone tonight too?” Ye Jian knew that she had a chance. She blinked her eyes cheekily and smiled. “I can’t always let you accompany me. I need to learn to face the darkness myself. I’ll bring the compass along so I won’t lose my direction.” “Sure. I’ll wait for you here with Grandpa Gen then.” Her perseverance and boldness made him feel that his effort was all worth it. Principal Chen didn’t just want to groom Ye Jian into a world-class sniper, he wanted her to be able to enter the special forces directly. He was currently training Ye Jian’s ground sniping skills. Next year, he would bring her to the forest for training. The sun set. The scenery in the desert was pure. Below them, the sand spread into the horizon. Above them, the stars shone brightly. Ye Jian took out her binoculars and looked at the Milky Way. The universe was vast. She felt that she was just a speck of dust in the universe. The sky was beautiful. Occasionally, you could see a shooting star flying across the night sky. It disappeared in a moment but the image it created was enchanting. After admiring the sky for a few minutes, Ye Jian walked into the desert. She was going to start her stamina training now. 𝐟𝚛𝕖𝚎𝕨𝗲𝐛𝚗𝐨𝐯𝐞𝕝.𝐜𝗼𝗺 The stars twinkled in the night sky. Ye Jian didn’t know that as she was admiring the sky, Xia Jinyuan was sitting next to the pilot and waiting for take-off. He received a command and the plane flew into the night sky. He rushed up at a 60 degrees angle before tilting his plane back and flying towards his destination. Under the guidance of the command center, he and his teammates, along with five pilots, started their exercises. They stimulated the action of firing bombs, elevating at an angle, rapid downward plunge, and many others. All these exercises were dangerous and needed much of their effort. The sound of warplanes was heard. Ye Jian took her binoculars and looked through it. She could see a few warplanes flying past her at a very fast speed. However, to Xia Jinyuan, he knew that his Little Fox was somewhere among this desert. They would meet each other here. The only difference was, he was in the sky and she was on the ground. Yet, they still met at the same time and same place. If she heard the sound of warplanes and looked up, she would be able to see the plane that he was in. “Fly pass the Khotan River and finish the barrel roll.” Ye Jian wouldn’t be able to hear his voice but it could be heard clearly in the command center. Warplane test flights were dangerous but he still remained calm and composed. That night, Ye Jian didn’t return. Principal Chen and Grandpa Gen didn’t sleep for the entire night. They sat and waited until the sun rose. Ye Jian appeared along with the sun on the horizon. Her back was facing the sun as she walked towards them slowly. She saw the two black dots from afar. They were her closest family members and the elders that she respected the most. She didn’t know that she crossed paths with another person yesterday night. After staying in the desert for four months, the three of them went to a huge forest in the southwest of China. This was a place filled with legends and danger. Here, Ye Jian started her training that was supposed to be held in the third year of her Four-Year Plan.
