Chapter 746 Departure


    "What? You told him he would be captain of the Dragon Hunting Special Troop?"


    Lu Tian-He and Fang Shao-Hong went into shock when she told them about the situation in the


    hospital ward.


    Ye Yu-Yan''s eyes were still a little red. She saw her Master''s reaction and asked quietly, "Master, was I


    wrong? Didn''t you invite my cousin to join the armed forces to be captain of the Dragon Hunting


    Special Troop?”


    Lu Tian-He red and replied, "Who told you we wanted him to be a tiny captain? You silly girl! No


    wonder you messed up! Use your brains. Your cousin defeated the top disciple of the Sword Shrine


    with a single move! He is a genius! In the martial arts circle, your skills say it all. Even if I see your


    cousin, I have to address him as ''Sir'' respectfully. How can we invite someone like him to be captain


    and take orders from someone else? Aren''t you looking down on him? How different is it from hurling


    insult? It was considered kind of him to throw a temper at you. If you did it to me,


    I''d have kicked you for sure! We want him to be the chief military instructor of the entire army."


    Lu Tian-He shook his head and sighed with regret bursting from his heart.


    Ye Fan didn''t like them to begin with, but after Ye Yu-Yan messed up, it would be even more impossible


    for them to invite Ye Fan to join the army.


    "Chief...chief military instructor? Ye...Ye Fan?" stuttered Ye Yu-Yan, who was dumbstruck instantly.


    Ye Yu-Yan opened her eyes wide. She didn''t dream that her master wanted to invite Ye Fan to join the


    army and offer him such a respectable role.


    "But...but he''s only in his twenties. How can he be the chief military instructor at such a young age?"


    asked Ye Yu-Yan in surprise.


    Ye Yu-Yan already knew that Ye Fan would have great aplishments in life when she witnessed


    him disying his true prowess at Guangyue Restaurant.


    She even said that Ye Fan would rise to the ranks of a general in 30 years.


    Ye Yu-Yan already thought very highly of Ye Fan, but she still underestimated him from the looks of it


    now.


    The position of the chief military instructor would mean he would be at least a major general.


    There was probably only one other man who made it to a major general at a young age.


    And that was the God of War of China, Ye Qing-Tian!


    But now, Ye Fan was about to join his ranks and be the second one.


    So Ye Yu-Yan was overwhelmed with shock.


    Had the young man whom she despised unknowingly overtaken her so vastly?


    "Age is no object if he is talented. You live in a meritocracy to begin with. Your cousin is so powerful at


    such a young age. Yu-Yan, just you wait, he will probably make a name for himself throughout China in


    less than 30 years," said Lu Tian-He profoundly in a deep voice that brimmed with excitement and


    anticipation.


    He sounded like an old man hoping his progeny would rise to sess.


    At Lu Tian-He''s age, fame and fortune meant nothing to him.

    He only wanted to see the younger generation seed.


    If they could find another matchless martial artist in China, the men who discovered and groomed Ye


    Fan would be famous when he made a name for himself.


    So Lu Tian-He and Fang Shao-Hong didn''t give up. Considering what had just transpired, they decided


    to discuss the matter further before acting.


    Instead, aplicated emotion rose in Ye Yu-Yan''s heart after she heard them praising Ye Fan to the


    sky.


    She felt defeated and dejected.


    Ye Yu-Yan felt insulted when Ye Fan wrote her love letters and courted her back in the day.


    But it never crossed her mind that ten yearster, the young man she despised would surpass her


    staggeringly.


    She was now beneath the young man who was exiled from the Chu family.


    Ye Yu-Yan could sense her heart split open and something sour gushed from it.


    "Enough, Yu-Yan. Stay out of your cousin''s matter. Go home and take a few days off. After the Lunar


    New Year,e back to the armed forces and train hard. Do you now know how small you are


    Despite messing things up, Lu Tian-He didn''t reprimand her. He even made an exception and gave her


    leave, and told her to go home.


    But Ye Yu-Yan surprisingly rejected Lu Tian-He''s offer.


    "I don''t want to go home. You''re right. I can''tpare to true talent. I want to go back to the army right


    now and train and be stronger. I don''t want to be so badly outdone by him!" said Ye Yu-Yan


    brightly with her fists clenched.


    A look of determination emanated from her eyes.


    Lu Tian-He and Fang Shao-Hong looked at each other andughed.


    "Haha! It seems this trip to Jingzhou has spurred your fighting spirit. In that case, go on back to the


    army then. After you get back, work on getting well first. Don''t hurt yourself because you want to train,"


    said Lu Tian-He hearteningly.


    Ye Yu-Yan didn''t spend the Lunar New Year holiday at home and left right away.


    Before Ye Yu-Yan left, Dong Mei and the rest of the Ye family did whatever they could to make her stay,


    but to no avail.


    The next day, a military green SUV pulled up in front of the old Ye residence.


    The entire Ye family turned up to see her off.


    "Yu-Yan, you haven''t spent Lunar New Year at home for years. It''s almost Lunar New Year''s eve,


    couldn''t you stay a few more days? Why don''t you ask your boss if you can spend the holidays here


    before going back?" asked Ye Ya''s wife. She hated to see Ye Yu-Yan leave.


    "Exactly, Yu-Yan. I came back this year just for you. How could you just leave? I can''t bear to see you


    go," said Ye Xi-Lan as she tried to make her stay.


    Ye Yu-Yan was the only person in the Ye family who had found a future beyond Jingzhou, so she was


    the entire family''s pride.


    So when Ye Yu-Yan wanted to leave, everyone came to see her off and tried to make her stay.


    All of them voiced their reluctance for her to leave.


    After everyone attempted to make her stay, Ye Yu-Yan only smiled gently and said, "I have something


    urgent to attend to. Let''s talk next time. Grandpa, Grandma, take care of yourselves. Mum, Dad,


    goodbye."


    Ye Yu-Yan waved her hand and bid farewell to her family.


    She kept looking into the courtyard as she spoke. Even as she got onto the car, she kept looking back.


    After the engine started, Ye Yu-Yan still kept turning around to look.


    But the skinny silhouette whom she was hoping for didn''t turn up.


    Previously, Ye Fan never saw her off whenever she left home.


    Ye Yu-Yan used to think that Ye Fan was an insignificant character, so she probably wouldn''t have


    cared even if he came.


    For some unknown reason, this time Ye Yu-Yan unexpectedly felt disappointed and empty in her heart


    when Ye Fan didn''t show up.


    Was she sad?


    "Fan, you still can''t forgive me."


    Ye Yu-Yan''s gentle sigh was taken away by the icy cold winter wind!
