Reborn at Boot Camp: General, Don’t Mess Around!
Chapter 2233: I Will Not Go AnywhereChapter 2233 I Will Not Go Anywhere
The old man had no heart problems, but his blood pressure had been unstable, and he had thrombosis in his brain. Li Jinnian paid close attention to him for fear that his grandfather would get too excited and have any problems.
The heater was turned on at home, so everyone’s body was very warm and comfortable when they walked in. The old man was helped by Ye Jian into the living room. The old voice introduced the pendulums around the living room, “This is the country decorating according to my intentions. The furniture here doesn’t have a single nail; it’s all tenon structure. Look at this wooden sofa; they are all handmade by old carpenters. They are strong and durable. They are much stronger than the leather sofas and fabric sofas nowadays.”

There were so many things he wanted to say, too many things he wanted to ask, so many that the old gentleman didn’t know where to start. He was so excited. However, he didn’t know how to ask or talk about the things he really wanted to ask or say, so he could only talk about the environment in which he lived now.
It could be seen that the country’s arrangements for the old man’s life in his later years were quite detailed. His food, clothing, housing, and transportation all followed the old man’s wishes. The furniture and daily necessities were arranged according to the old man’s habits.
The old man was born rich. He was a rich Young Master who was served by maids and servants at that time. Before the age of twenty-eight, his life was exquisite, and he was able to eat, wear, live, and do well.
Although he was in trouble later, the old man was never sloppy about life. A bouquet of wildflowers, a wooden chair, a green bowl, and a pot of clear water could also give him joy in his life.
It was precisely because the old gentleman and his wife were open-minded and had never lost interest in life that they could survive one difficulty after another.
Ye Jian admired the attitude of the old gentleman who was old and retired. He was from a wealthy background, and yet he still maintained the same attitude towards life when he was young.
“Everything in this house is specially added according to my liking. I will ask Jinnian to accompany you out and buy some things you like later. Jinnian is your aunt’s son, older than you, so he is your brother. If you have anything you want next time, just ask from him.”

He also kept holding Ye Jian’s hand, as if he was afraid that she would disappear when he let go, even if he sat on the sofa, he held her hands tightly. Every time he said a word, he couldn’t help looking at Ye Jian carefully, as if he was afraid that if he said too much, he would make Ye Jian angry and leave.
Ye Jian looked at the old man cautiously; her nose was stuffed badly.
“You have some rest first; I’ll be here with you.” Holding the old man’s thin hands, Ye Jian said softly, “I’m not going anywhere; I’ll be with you here, don’t worry.”
The old gentleman’s shoulders trembled suddenly. In his wise, old eyes, tears gathered. He tightly held Ye Jian’s hand; his chest modulated up and down very sharply.
“Tell me, what is your name and how old are you this year? Which military school are you studying now? How has your life been? Have you suffered a lot? Tell me… Your grandpa, I want to know. I want to know…”
The old voice choked several times, and Li Jinnian’s expression changed slightly due to his overexcited emotions. He quickly said, “Speak slowly, grandpa; Ye Jian is here to accompany you. Don’t get too excited.”
Then he said to Ye Jian, “My grandfather has a blood clot in his brain; he shouldn’t get too emotional.”
