Chapter 3: Changing Fate

  "Grandpa, I was raised by grandma, and I know all the things you said. But I couldn't control it. Changing environment is also good, after all, university life is just like this, whether or not it's all the same! Going to the army, maybe I can have a better development." Yeyang Jian forced out a faint smile. He actually still had some reluctance towards his soon-to-end university life.

  "Have you thought it through?" The middle-aged officer nodded slightly. He had always liked Night Sun's straightforwardness since he was a child.

  "I've made up my mind!" Ye Yang nodded very firmly.

  The middle-aged officer pondered for a moment. He pulled out a box of exquisite iron-shell cigarettes, lit one, and casually tossed the rest to Ye Yangjian. On the cigarette case, two steel guns were crossed together, with an embossed August 1st military emblem in the middle. Below it was written in a row of regular script: "Chinese People's Liberation Army Internal Supply Only".

  "Nephew! I'm giving you two options. First, I can arrange for you to be assigned to a comfortable unit for the next two years, get some gold plating, which is equivalent to buying you a military uniform, and when you return, you'll have a better chance of getting a good job. Second, go to the most difficult place to temper yourself. Which one do you choose? You're already eighteen, an adult. Your uncle respects any choice you make." The middle-aged officer took a deep drag on his cigarette, his eyes fixed intently on Yèyáng Jiàn.

  "Haha, Uncle, look what you said. My grandfather fought in the Korean War and later brought you and my dad into the army together. My dad retired early, but you stayed in the army until now, almost becoming a lieutenant general. I'm half a general's son, after all. What do you think I would choose? Would a man from our family be a soft and weak second-generation rich kid?" Night Yang pouted, looking seemingly wronged at the middle-aged military officer, showing the shyness of a younger generation in front of their elders. With an expression that was both smiling and not, he said...

  "Hahaha...!" The middle-aged military officer burst into hearty laughter.

  "Alright, I knew our family didn't have any useless people! Your dad was the best soldier back then, and I believe you are too! Alright! You're indeed worthy of being my nephew from the Ye family... Ah, what a pity that I myself gave birth to a daughter..."

  He asked the sky with a smile, dropped the cigarette butt in his hand, gathered up the smile on his face, and turned back to issue an order with unchallengeable majesty.

  "Orderly!"

  "Yes!" The young orderly snapped his heels together and stood at attention, waiting for orders.

  "Little Li, you go first and take Xiao Jian to handle the dropout procedures. In the afternoon, take Xiao Jian for a physical examination. I'll call the principal and ask him to handle it according to the national defense student's identity!"

  "Yes!" Little Li, the diligent soldier, gave a neat and handsome military salute, accepting the task. Suddenly, he glanced at several girls with shining eyes again.

  "Xiao Jian, you have a physical examination this afternoon. Go and cut your long hair for me, not more than one centimeter! Just wait and see if I don't beat you to death!" Ye Xun Tian had always been opposed to Ye Yang Jian's long ponytail, damn it, he looked just like a pretentious artistic youth~~

  The principal's identity was very oppressive, the team's style of doing things was to act quickly and decisively, following the principle of handling special matters in a special way. The identity of Ye Yangjian as a national defense student was instantly determined. The principal patted his chest on the phone and promised Ye Tian that he would still be able to get his university graduation certificate after retiring from the army.

  In the afternoon, with the busy preparation of soldier Xiaoli, the physical examination at the military inspection office went smoothly. Thanks to his excellent physical quality, Yeyangjian passed all the physical examination items successfully, and the only unqualified one was that his foreskin was a bit long... The foreskin is too long, which can easily lead to urinary tract infections and diseases. In order to prevent large-scale urinary tract infections in the army, all soldiers with long foreskins are required to undergo circumcision surgery.

  At night, Tian frowned and glanced at the female military doctor in charge of urology. The female military doctor immediately understood, closed the door of the examination room, and quickly completed this simple circumcision surgery amidst Ye Yang's painful screams.

  Looking at Ye Yangjian's eyes, which were filled with hot tears, and that expression that seemed to have been humiliated by someone. This very beautiful female military doctor sighed and said softly: "Little brother, sister is also for your own good! You should know, if you don't pass the re-examination in the army, you'll have to get another haircut. The military doctors there are much more ruthless than me, how can I put it? Ten wraps of skin, one dish of food, at that time you will understand what sister means. My technique is absolutely precise, look at this style, so standard, just like a textbook example... In the future, it will be both useful and good-looking..." The female military doctor had a smile on her face. A speech that was said in a very casual tone, but instead made Ye Yangjian's face turn bright red.
