Commander-in-Chief Xia had instructed Ye Chien to inform him immediately if anything happened. She was not to hide anything or make any decisions or actions on her own. This was because Sun Xueqing's matter was not solely related to Ye Chien. There was also a huge network of connections involved. If Ye Chien was not careful, she might be caught in a trap of her own making.
Ye Chien forwarded all of Village Chief Zhang Defu's messages to Commander-in-Chief Xia's personal cell phone. While waiting for Commander-in-Chief Xia's reply, Ye Chien tried to call home, hoping that no one would pick up.
She did not expect to hear the old man's voice on the other end of the line. Ye Chien jumped out of her seat and said in surprise, "Grandpa, when did you come home?"
The old man had been away for more than half a year. Ye Chien tried to call him a few times, but no one picked up. Even Uncle Fu, who took care of the old man, was not at home. He also went to the aerospace institute to prepare the old man's three meals a day.
The old man, who had only been back for less than half a month, heard Ye Jian's voice. The old man with a head of silver hair and a pair of reading glasses laughed out loud. "I've been home for a while. My good granddaughter has been calling home many times. Grandpa was anxious when he came back. He was afraid that my good granddaughter had something urgent to tell us. Are you on vacation? When do you plan to come home? Give Grandpa a call before you go home. Grandpa will send a car to pick you up. "
The old man missed Ye Chien very much. He had lost and regained his blood. It had been less than a month since they had come home. Although the old man supported Ye Chien's work, it did not mean that he could bear not seeing Ye Chien for a long time.
When one was old, the only thing one missed was their descendants.
Ye Chien heard the old man ask her when she was coming home. For a moment, she felt so guilty that her lips trembled. She did not know what to say to the old man.
Her pause did not need to be explained. To the old man, silence was an answer.
Although the open-minded old man was disappointed, he expressed his absolute support for his granddaughter's work. Instead, he smiled and comforted Ye Chien, "Are you feeling guilty because you have to go out again and can't come back to accompany your grandfather?"
"Hahaha, grandpa's good grandson, you're still young. Young people roam the world and roam the world. This is what your great-grandfather and great-grandmother taught me. Grandpa went abroad to study at the age of fourteen, and he left home for fourteen years before returning. You, ah, now is the best time to study and study. Learn more, see more, and use what you learn. If you succeed in your studies, Grandpa will be happy to wait at home. "
The old man had long been used to living alone. When he was young, he did not spend much time with Father Fu as he grew up. Later, when Father Fu grew up, he also did not have time to accompany the old man. Now that his granddaughter had been found, he also did not have time to accompany him. The three generations of the family were very used to living alone.
Ye Chien regretted not calling home more often. If she had known that her grandfather was coming back, she would have gone back to the capital to accompany him for a few days before going to the border for training.
Unfortunately, there was no medicine for regret. The itinerary had been set and the mission could not be changed. Her comrades were waiting for her to go over. She … had to go over.
"I'm sorry, Grandpa. I can't go back to the capital to accompany you again. It's National Day. I'll definitely come back to accompany you during the seven days of National Day. "Ye Chien's voice was as soft as a mosquito's buzz. She felt so guilty that she lowered her head.
"It's July now. It's not long before National Day. Grandpa will wait at home for you to come back. What you need to do is far more meaningful than going back home to accompany Grandpa. Grandpa understands that only when you have a country can you have a home. "
The old man, who had devoted his entire life to the development of his country's aerospace industry, could understand very well. This was because the old man himself was like this. Even Father Fu, whom he had groomed, was like this. He gave up his family for everyone.
