2883 Back To Back

From this, it could be seen that Eka Assault was very likely to challenge the technical subjects of the special forces.

Ye Jian looked at these rules. Even though her marksmanship was accurate, she couldn’t guarantee that she could complete five accurate shots.

“Don’t feel too pressured. We didn’t come here with the determination to win. We came with the attitude of learning. Let’s learn well and secretly. We need to understand the advantages of the Western special forces and bring useful information back to the country. Our main responsibility is to learn and ensure that we don’t lose too badly.”

Xia Jinyuan believed in his comrades’ ability. He believed that his comrades had the ability to win.

Unfortunately, they weren’t required to win. Winning was contrary to the development of the country. If they were too high-profile, people would pay more attention to them.

The current military strength of China was developing secretly. There was no need to be as high-profile as the Americans.

If the Chinese military was too high-profile but didn’t have the ability to bear the consequences of being high-profile, that would be a dangerous mistake to make.

The special forces soldiers who came to participate in the competition knew what they were in charge of. They nodded seriously to show that they understood and would not make a mistake.

It was late at night. The special forces soldiers in the tents were already preparing to turn off their lights and fall asleep. Ye Jian opened her sleeping bag. She didn’t take off her combat uniform. She only took off her military boots that were dried during the day. After a while, she fell asleep.

At two o’clock in the morning, a cold rain suddenly fell in the eastern forest of Estonia. The raindrops hit the entire tent and severely affected the sleep of every special forces soldier.

Ye Jian opened her eyes and stared at the top of the tent for at least five minutes. She forced herself to sleep as she listened to the sound of the rain.

“Are you awake?” Xia Jinyuan’s relaxed voice came from beside her. Ye Jian, who had already forced herself to close her eyes, opened them again. She turned her head and looked to her left. “Why are you sleeping beside me?”

Before she fell asleep, she clearly remembered that her cousin was sleeping on her left, while her right was the edge of the tent.

How did Captain Xia come to sleep beside her?

Xia Jinyuan, who had been sleeping for a few hours, stretched out his hand from the warm sleeping bag. Then, he flicked Ye Jian’s forehead with his slender fingers as he chuckled. “Are you so surprised that I’m sleeping beside you?”

“It’s alright. I’m more surprised that you didn’t wake me up.” Ye Jian rubbed her eyes. After being interrupted by him, she was no longer sleepy.

At 2 am, the temperature in the eastern forest was quite low. It was only eight degrees Celsius. Fortunately, the tent was tightly guarded against the wind and rain. There was a group of masculine male soldiers inside too. The temperature in the tent was slightly higher than outside.

Ye Jian, who was no longer sleepy, reached out her hand and rubbed her forehead. She frowned slightly. “Keep your distance. Don’t touch me.”

Xia Jinyuan laughed. “I was sleeping elsewhere. At around 12 o’clock, the Demon King came over and woke me up. He said that you called my name in my dream, so he made space for me to sleep. But you’re blaming me for touching you. Why didn’t you mention that you wanted me to come over and get close to you in your dream?”

Ye Jian was dumbfounded. Her last trace of sleepiness disappeared.

She widened her eyes and said in disbelief, “How is that possible? I didn’t dream at all. If it wasn’t raining outside, I would have slept until 4:30.”
