Her thoughts did not escape the discerning Du Jiayi. She glanced at her coldly. Du Jiayi, who usually liked to use others to make a move on her opponent, smiled again and said, “Also, Commander Zhong of the capital city’s political regiment is also here. Be smart later and don’t say the wrong thing.”
This time, Ye Ying completely forgot about Ye Jian’s matter. She couldn’t control her excitement, and it showed on her face.
Du Jiayi glanced at Ye Ying disdainfully. A hint of malice flashed across Du Jiayi’s arrogant eyes as she slowly said, “Be more dignified. You’re just going to be meeting a regiment commander. What’s there to be happy about? Just smile. Don’t embarrass my parents!
“That cousin of yours is a lot calmer than you are. She doesn’t have any stage fright sitting next to the commander-in-chief. She could still maintain a smile and talk to him. You should learn more from your cousin.”
Du Jiayi knew that Ye Ying hated it when people compared her to Ye Jian, but she still said it. Her intentions were obvious.
Ye Ying didn’t understand her intentions. Instead, she hated Ye Jian even more. Why did she have to hear people comparing her to Ye Jian wherever she went?
Why did they ask her to learn from Ye Jian? She was clearly many times better than Ye Jian!
She secretly gritted her teeth before sighing softly. “Yes, she’s always been bold. There’s nothing she doesn’t dare to do. I’m not the same. I don’t dare to do bad things. I get nervous when I encounter good situations.”
‘Is she still timid? Hah, that’s not obvious at all.’
Du Jiayi sneered. Ye Ying’s face stiffened. She might have understood the deeper meaning. She said awkwardly, “I’m not timid. I’m just a little nervous. Please remind me later.”
“I don’t need to remind you. Just learn from your cousin, Ye Jian. With such good ready-made teaching materials, what else do you need?” Even if she was making sarcastic remarks, Du Jiayi could still maintain her politeness. It would make people misunderstand that she didn’t mean anything else. Those who were purely listening would not think too much.
Ye Ying’s face was so stiff that she couldn’t even maintain a basic smile. In order to not let Jiayi see her expression, Ye Ying chose to look down.
SHe could not be angry with Du Jiayi, let alone argue with her. Madam Li would not like it.
Lowering her head, she did not notice that Du Jiayi had suddenly stopped in her tracks. Her eyes were cold as she stared at the figure walking over from the side tunnel.
This was a Y-shaped passage. Both sides had to pass through the main passage to leave the venue. Ye Jian’s expression didn’t change when she saw the two of them. She maintained the same pace as the guard and glanced at Du Jiayi calmly before walking to the front.
Ye Jian was not surprised that Ye Ying was walking with Du Jiayi.
What was there to be surprised about? Han Zheng had already said that Madam Li was very satisfied with Ye Ying and wanted her son to marry her.
Du Jiayi’s expression changed when she saw Ye Jian ignoring her.
‘What an arrogant cadet!’
She did not even have a smile on her face and actually chose to ignore her!
‘Good. I’ll show her later!’
Staring at the figure walking in front of her, she said in a low voice, “Why didn’t you greet your cousin when you saw her?”
Ye Ying hadn’t seen Ye Jian. When she looked up, she only saw Ye Jian’s side profile. It was faint and filled with dignity.
“She doesn’t like me talking to her, so why should I pester her?” Ye Ying said, trying to hide the truth. She buried her head deeper. Ye Jian was too hateful, too hateful!
Ye Jian and Du Jiayi… They were the two most hateful people!
