The soft sobbing continued from under the blankets, but this time, Ye Chien did not ask her what was wrong. He also did not ask if she needed a set of warm clothes. He did not ask anything. He just closed his eyes and quietly waited for Xu Wen to stop crying.
Xu Wen was used to being taken care of. She was used to people taking the initiative to help her whenever she needed help. In the end, it became a terrible habit. It wiped away her sense of responsibility and the responsibility she should have.
As he listened to her crying, Ye Chien also reflected on whether he had helped her too much and ended up making things worse.
He slowly thought about it and found the problem. Gradually, Ye Chien found the problem with himself.
He could help Xu Wen, but he could not help her like he did with his classmates in high school.
The military academy placed more emphasis on personal independence. If he helped too much, it would hinder Xu Wen's growth and make her dependent on him.
She did not help Xu Wen solve her problems. She helped Xu Wen discover her own problems and solve them herself.
Just like how Captain Xia treated her. He never took the initiative to help her. During training, he was even cold and cruel.
He would watch her make a mistake and then use an even crueler method to make her remember what her mistake was and what it would affect.
Grandpa Gen and Uncle Chen were the same. They chose to stand by the side and never take the initiative to remind her that she was in the wrong. She had to do this and that.
Realizing his mistake, Ye Chien closed his eyes and looked a little cold. Xu Wen needed to change. Similarly, he also needed to change.
After about half an hour, Xu Wen's sobbing finally stopped. Ye Chien heard He Jing let out a soft sigh. She did the same.
Ye Chien tilted his head and looked in the direction of Xu Wen. He slowly reached out his hand and gently patted Xu Wen's shoulder. "Go to sleep. We still have training tomorrow."
…
After a while, Xu Wen grunted in a nasal voice. Her heart was in a mess. Then she closed her eyes.
Ye Chien's actions made Xu Wen, who had finally stopped crying, burst into tears again. Fortunately, she bit the blanket in time to stop her tears from falling.
I can't think anymore. I can't cry anymore. I still have training tomorrow. I can't affect Ye Chien and He Jing.
Xu Wen bit the blanket tightly and forced herself to fall asleep as soon as possible.
The sound of the wind and rain came from outside. The dripping sound of rain was like the best lullaby. It was late at night and quiet. It was the best time to sleep.
Ye Chien slept very soundly. However, most of the freshmen couldn't sleep well. It was their first time participating in an exercise, so their cerebral cortex was relatively active. They would think about what happened during the day at night. While they sighed, they would also sum up their shortcomings. As a result, they were more energetic.
After the excitement passed, they fell asleep in a daze. Because the place they slept in was uneven, they were either woken up in the middle of the night by the brothers next door. They had never known the pain of sleeping, but for the first time, they felt the pain of sleeping.
At five o 'clock in the morning, Ye Chien opened his eyes. As soon as he moved, Xu Wen, who was sleeping next to him, also got up and said softly, "In the future, I'll wake up early with you for morning exercises."
At five o 'clock, there was a faint light in the mountains. However, there wasn't much light in the tent. Ye Chien, who was dressed, smiled and nodded. "Okay, but you have to take the initiative."
In his heart, Ye Chien breathed a sigh of relief. This meant that Xu Wen hadn't been expelled by the university. Or rather, she was temporarily staying on campus for observation.
