章 1097: Most Respected Person

Looking at the young lady that was holding onto him, Uncle Gen patted the back of her hand lightly and gave an amiable smile. "Your Uncle Chen came to fetch me. Why would I be tired? You haven't returned to the village for two years. I'm worried about you, worried."

"After seeing you, I feel at ease. You are a big child now, a big child that the military has high hopes for."

No matter how far Ye Jian walked, in Uncle Gen's heart, she just turned from a small child into a big child.

"I'm bigger now and you're older too." Ye Jian was choking a little. She led the old man onto the wooden sofa and said in a soft voice, "I haven't gone back to see you for two years. Sorry for worrying you."

Uncle Gen smiled and replied, "I worked so hard to make sure that you won't come back. Look, isn't this great? The military has high hopes for you and they took care of me in the village too. There's nothing wrong with you not coming back."
