BXBX NOVEL Chapter 2424 Don't Give Up, My Comrade
Listening to her cries, Ye Jian wondered if she had helped her too much. The more Ye Jian helped her, the worse Xu Wen got.
She thought about it and found the problem. Gradually, Ye Jian realized that the problem was with herself.
She could help Xu Wen, but she couldn't help her like how she helped her classmates in senior high.
The military school emphasized personal independence. If Ye Jian and the others helped Xu Wen too much, it would stop Xu Wen's growth and make her dependent.
Ye Jian could not help Xu Wen solve the problem. Instead, Xu Wen had to discover the problem herself and solve it on her own.
It was just like how Captain Xia treated her. He never took the initiative to help her. During training, he could even be said to be cold and reserved.
He would watch her make mistakes and use a crueler method to let her remember the mistakes she made and what they would affect.
Grandpa Gen and Uncle Chen were the same. They chose to stand at the side and never took the initiative to remind her that she was wrong or what she had to do.
Realizing her mistake, Ye Jian's eyes turned cold. Xu Wen needed to change. Similarly, she needed to change too.
About half an hour later, Xu Wen's sobbing finally stopped. Ye Jian heard He Jing exhaling softly. She was exhaling too.
The sound of someone turning over came from her side. Ye Jian tilted her head and looked in the direction where Xu Wen was sleeping. She slowly reached out her hand and patted Xu Wen's shoulder. "Go to sleep. You still have training tomorrow."
...
After a while, Xu Wen responded to her with a nasal voice. Her heart was a mess as she closed her eyes.
Ye Jian's actions just now almost made Xu Wen cry again. Fortunately, she bit the blanket in time so that her tears wouldn't fall.
She couldn't think about it anymore. She couldn't cry anymore. She still had training tomorrow. She mustn't affect Ye Jian and He Jing.
Xu Wen gritted her teeth and forced herself to fall asleep as soon as possible.
The sound of wind and rain could be heard outside. The light rain was knocking on the tent. It was like the best lullaby. The night was quiet. It was the best time to sleep.
Ye Jian slept soundly, but most of the freshmen couldn't sleep well. This was their first time participating in a military exercise, so their cerebral cortex maintained a high level of activity. At night, they would think about all kinds of things that happened during the day. While they were sighing, they would summarize their shortcomings so that they would be more energetic the next day.
When they finally got drowsy, they fell asleep in a daze. The ground on which they slept was uneven. In the middle of the night, they would either be woken up by the bumps on the ground or the legs of their comrades beside them. They never knew that sleeping could be painful. This was the first time they felt that sleeping was so painful.
At five in the morning, Ye Jian opened her eyes. Her biological clock was ticking. The moment she moved, Xu Wen, who was sleeping beside her, got up too. She said softly, "I'll wake up early for morning exercise with you in the future."
At five o'clock, there was light on the mountain. However, there wasn't much light in the tent. Ye Jian smiled and nodded. "Okay, but you have to take the initiative."
Ye Jian heaved a sigh of relief in her heart. That meant that Xu Wen hadn't been dissuaded by the school. She might be staying in school for observation.
