Chapter 1754 Home
After retiring for more than a decade, Principal Chen could be said as never giving himself a proper break before; when the military arranged for him to work as a Principal in Fujun Town, he had always been guarding the Oil Depot Transit in the middle school, later when he met Ye Jian, he basically took out all of his time to personally teach Ye Jian everything.
He had never taken a day’s break, nor had he allowed himself to relax properly; even if he couldn’t wear the green military uniform in public, he still treated himself as a serving soldier.
After being hospitalized for so many days, it could be said as the longest break Principal Chen had taken since enlisting in the army; that’s why, making him to continue staying in the hospital was really much more torturous than actual torture.
However, he had worked as a middle school Principal for more than a decade, there was an air of a scholar’s elegance around him, and his words and the way he spoke was quite proper.
Realizing Political Commissar Yan seated in the hospital room wasn’t budging, Principal Chen could only try moving him with emotion, and persuading him with reason, “There are quite a few good seedlings in this batch of new recruits, if we train them properly, they’ll definitely make a name of themselves in the future, that’s why I must pay close attention.”
“You see, I’ve already stayed here for a week, if I don’t go back, they’ll start to slacken off. How can that work, training needs to be done from day to day, and not allow it to be left unfinished.”
“I wouldn’t joke around with my own body, neither would I ignore my own body, after being hospitalized for so long, it’s really enough. Isn’t it just a gastrointestinal bleeding, it’s not that big of a deal, surgery’s already done, and I’ve already rested enough, let’s just finish the discharging procedures today.”
No matter how well he was speaking, it was not enough to budge Political Commissar Yan, “Sir, you need to keep resting. We aren’t doctors, we don’t understand. Yet the doctor had already spoken, Sir’s gastrointestinal bleeding was extremely dangerous this time, if we were late by half an hour, you would’ve died.”
“Sir, we know you treasure the new recruits, but you should also think about little lass Ye, she had only just seen Old Uncle off, don’t tell me you want her to send you off so soon? Older Brother, you must think about little lass Ye, she’s a young girl, and sending away her dearest family members one after another, that would be more painful than scooping pieces of her heart out.”
“We wouldn’t waste our time with the hospital, let’s listen to the doctor, you’ll get discharged after a full twenty days, as long as you cooperate nicely, and recover nicely, we’ll immediately leave after twenty days.”
After Principal Chen’s collapse, even Supreme Commander Xia was alarmed and sent them a strict order, his body must recover properly no matter what, and it must not be treated casually!
That was a phone call from Supreme Commander Xia himself for him, and Old Liu, no one from the Provincial Military Command was alerted!
Not many people knew about the special identity of Principal Chen; not even the figureheads in the Provincial Military Command knew about that; only the Regimental Commander and Political Commissar who were posted in the mountains of Fujun Town knew a thing or two.
Supreme Commander himself had already phoned them. Personally, that was more than enough reason for Political Commissar Yan and Regimental Commander Liu to not adhere to Principal Chen’s own will and allow him to get discharged.
Meanwhile, the moment Principal Chen who wanted to get discharged, heard Ye Jian’s name, the cold expression on his face unconsciously softened.
His complexion didn’t look too good after surgery, there were still pale spots on his face, and he had lost a good amount of weight, making his hardy face appear more angular, and the military pressure restrained between his brows were showing a bit.
After thinking of Ye Jian, even Principal Chen’s gaze had softened plenty.
After Old Yan had said so much, he had finally figured out his weakness.
He wasn’t wrong; if he really left this world suddenly, how would little lass Ye who regarded relationships seriously be able to handle it? Furthermore, her mother’s death was filled with questions, and he’ll have to help her with it.
His thoughts to get discharged immediately shrunk by half; the other half was still continuing to negotiate.
