Ye Jian got exposed but she kept her composure and maintained the smile on her face. She replied calmly, "Just now, I really did want to have a duel with Captain Xia. However, I know that I'm not his match so I gave up the thought."
Commander Xia had been in the military for half his life. He wasn't someone who liked to listen to flatters. He always admired broad-minded and upright people. Hence, he was surprised when Ye Jian didn't hide the matter and spoke about it openly.
This young lady was very mature and didn't curry his favor. She was frank and forthright too. This was very rare. It wasn't strange that his son, someone who had high expectations, would fall for this lady.
"We're just talking casually now. Little Ye, you don't have to be nervous."Commander Xia looked at her back which suddenly tensed up again and then turned to see his son who was frowning and worried about his future girlfriend. He decided that he should be a kind and friendly elder.
