Chapter 562: An Incisive Problem
The car that even had its windows bullet-proofed revved up. Xia Jinyuan reminded the driver to drive slightly faster, then spoke towards Ye Jian, who was listening attentively: “After the intercultural communication between the students, we will return to China at 6p.m.
“We’re leaving tonight? Isn’t that three days sooner than the expected itinerary?” Ye Jian pursed her lips and lowered her voice: “Is there something going on that we need to return early?”
Although Pakistan was indeed dangerous, having Al Qaeda members and terrorists popping up left and right, being able to return earlier than later wasn’t bad.
Xia Jinyuan noticed that her tensed body started to slowly relax as they were conversing, a slight smile surfaced in his eyes, “Everything was going smoothly, that’s why we were able to return sooner.”
“You could also return earlier to the province, what about the military training? Are you still going to attend? It’s fine if you don’t, you can rest up in school for two days.”
The little fox had exceptional self-regulating abilities. Although he liked to see the shyness on her face, he hoped that she would be able to have excellent control over her own emotions.
“Let’s go back and attend military training. Staying alone in school sounds very boring.” Ye Jian didn’t ponder on it. Further, she had decided to go back and attend military training. Since she’s already going back, then there was no reason not to attend the military training.
Hiding the truth from Teacher Tong, who cared about her, made her feel quite guilty.
Xia Jinyuan nodded his head, that was also fine. She wouldn’t enjoy as much freedom in the province as she was back in town. There were many more people in school, and it was impossible for her to stay in her room and not go out, attending the military training was much more freeing and relaxing.
Just now, a hint of guilt surfaced on her face, that guilt… must be because of that homeroom teacher of hers.
Uncle Chen stayed in the military area. Besides not being able to leave the field, he was free to roam around inside, then, her guilt must be towards the teacher and students who cared about her.
The little fox always had a soft spot towards people who were kind to her.
At 2:20p.m. Ye Jian arrived at Miss Petty’s school. Although they did not tell the school beforehand, they had notified them about today at 10 a.m. The school then immediately ordered a ‘no entry’ confinement.
The car drove directly into the school. When Miss Petty, who was holding a bouquet of flowers, noticed Ye Jian getting out of the car, she walked towards her and passed the flowers to Ye Jian, and hugged her gently, “Jian, thank you.”
Thanking her for the protection two nights ago, thanking her for saving the children in the orphanage, preventing the whole situation from escalating, and prevented her father from being criticized by the people for that.
“We are friends, among friends, there is no need to say thanks.” Ye Jian’s hand gently slapped her back, “We’ve all returned safely, we can still live under the sun, Miss Petty, that is our luck.”
The accompanying diplomatic personnel was Qin Xiu. Every sentence that Ye Jian had spoken, he had translated it for the Pakistani teachers and students. Firstly, they toured around the school, then returned to the classroom to greet the students in Miss Petty’s class. When talking about the cultures of the two countries, because Ye Jian had researched Pakistan beforehand, every sentence that she spoke was welcomed with passionate applause by the teachers and students.
The intercultural exchange’s atmosphere was harmonious, and Ye Jian was able to calmly answer the questions the students had given her.
One of the students asked Ye Jian if she was worried that under the influence of foreign cultures, the national cultures would slowly disappear.
Then she raised an example, last year she had visited China, and it was coincidentally Christmas, she incisively pointed out that “Yuan Dan” (Chinese New Year’s Eve) was China’s traditional holiday. At the same time, Christmas is a holiday that originated from overseas. Still, she had noticed that everyone was excited for the arrival of Christmas, making Yuan Dan seem cold and cheerless.
