Chapter 1357: Plan
The funeral ceremony was at its end. After Political Commissar Yan finished the final eulogy, the four Lieutenants walked to the tomb with two wreaths in their hands. They placed the wreaths and stood upright in salute. All officers and soldiers also saluted the old squad leader for the last time… The selfless old squad leader would be sleeping here from now.
It took only half a day for the whole burial process of Old Uncle Gen. Everything complied with Old Uncle Gen’s last wish, and everyone accompanied Old Uncle Gen through his final journey in an orderly manner.
Ye Jian watched the officers and soldiers leave one by one. She whispered to Xia Jinyuan: “I want to be alone with Old Uncle for a while, Captain Xia, can you please say a word to Lieutenant General for me? Thank you.”

Xia Jinyuan stared at Ye Jian deeply, raised his hand, and gently stroked her cheek with his slender fingers before speaking softly: “Okay, we will wait for you outside the cemetery. Ye Zhifan is still outside; I will go out and deal with him first.”
“Okay, remember to not expose your identity. Ye Zhifan is cunning by nature, and he is shrewd. Be careful not to be tricked by him.” Ye Jian reminded Xia Jinyuan.
Ye Zhifan was good at plotting plans, and he could figure out a thing or two with that mouth of his. When talking to him, one must first guard his or her own position.
She added: “He wants to get close to the Commander-in-Chief; I am 90% sure that he is doing that to send Ye Ying into the army. There are officers and soldiers of high positions here today, so you must beware of his act. He just wants others to think that he is close to the Commander-in-Chief.”
Ye Jian never let go of her vigilance against Ye Zhifan, but she always kept Old Uncle Gen’s words in her heart. She had better keep her distance from Ye Zhifan before she could be at the same level as him.
Xia Jinyuan, who didn’t want her to worry about him, stroked her determined eyebrows with his fingers, “I know. You go talk to your old uncle, don’t worry.”
Ye Jian believed in Xia Jinyuan. Hearing his words, she took his hand lightly, the corners of her mouth curled slightly, “Alright, go then. Thank you.” With him around, Ye Zhifan really couldn’t cause too much trouble.
Lifting her eyes slightly to the front, Ye Jian’s smile deepened. She asked Xia Jinyuan, who had not left yet, “When did T6 arrive?”
“He has been in Fujun Town this summer, and he will not return to the platoon until mid-September.” Xia Jinyuan saw his comrade guarding An Jiaxin closely, he raised his eyebrows slightly… It seems that he really intends to pursue An Jiaxin.

Ye Jian looked at the time and said, “You don’t need to pick me up; you will go there by myself. Captain Xia, please help me take care of Uncle Chen; I feel a little worried.” Grandpa had left. To not worry her, Uncle Chen hid his emotions. In fact, he felt deeply sad. However, even if he hid it deeply, she could still see it from his tired eyebrows.
She could always take care of the people around her carefully and care about the people who care about her.
“Okay, don’t worry, I can handle the matters for you.” The officers and soldiers had already left; only Xia Jinyuan and Ye Jian were left alone. Xia Jinyuan patted her on the shoulder lightly, then turned to leave.
The surroundings became quiet immediately; the bright orange sunset in the golden sky indicated that it was 6 p.m. The bright light spread out like a beautiful flower. It also shone on the mountains and reflected on the water. It was a magnificent view.
The sun had completely set, and the crooked moon had appeared in the sky. The sky was half cold and half hot. The beauty outlined by the two different sky scenes would be hard even for a master to paint.
