Rebirth: General, Don't Mess Around!

8.50 am. Ye Jian was focused on watching the television so she didn’t care what Xia Jinyuan was talking about with Hou Zi in the bathroom. It was 8.50 am now, There was still ten minutes before the 9 am news.

News shown on television had all been edited and reviewed. Thus, she didn’t think that she would be able to guess what Xia Jinyuan’s mission was from the television.

Xia Jinyuan hung up the call and walked out of the bathroom. He said to Ye Jian, ”Half an hour later, someone will send my clothes over. We will go out together and have a look around.”

Go out to have a look around half an hour later? That meant that she wouldn’t be able to finish watching the 9 am news. She hoped that she would be able to see some traces from the preview.

”Do we have to go out together? Can’t we go to the training grounds?” Ye Jian looked up at the man that decided her schedule for the day. Her gaze turned a little stubborn as she asked, ”Captain Xia, why do I feel that you’re hiding something from me?”

Xia Jinyuan raised his eyebrows. ”You can’t go to the training grounds today. As for the reason… watch the news first. You took my share of breakfast, right? I’m suddenly a little hungry.”

Ye Jian was even more suspicious when Xia Jinyuan changed the topic directly. ”Yes, your breakfast is here too. You can eat it and tell me why we have to go out together today.”

Xia Jinyuan smiled at her knowingly. The deep look in his eyes gave him a mysterious aura. ”Continue watching the television. Eat your breakfast slowly. I will accompany you in a while.”

Little Fox’s curiosity was piqued. He hoped that she wouldn’t cry because of fear later…

Cry? That seemed impossible. Why would the strong Little Fox cry?

Less than ten seconds after he walked out, Xia Jinyuan came back with a cold expression. He was holding Ye Jian’s school uniform in his hands. there were bloodstains on them.

”What happened on your trip?” He asked in a low voice. There was even a hint of anxiousness inside. ”Did you meet any suspicious people and took care of them directly?”

After entering the country, he had been on his guard all the time. The ’snakes’ that he lured from overseas shouldn’t be able to detect her presence so quickly… Was he too careless? Had they started attacking Little Fox already?

Ye Jian, who was watching the television, looked up. She saw him holding the bloodstained uniform with a tensed expression. She was slightly shocked by his reaction so she hurriedly explained, ”I saw a car accident on my way to the airport. The blood is not mine. It got stained when I was helping with the rescue mission.”

So that was what happened. He was really frightened just now.

Xia Jinyuan glanced at the school uniform in his hand. The dried blood wasn’t Ye Jian’s but his heart still felt heavy.

Nothing amiss could be seen on his face. He smiled and said, ”I see. Looks like the accident was quite bad. You got so much blood on you even though you just helped with the rescue mission.”

”It’s very bad. I wonder how the driver is.” Ye Jian furrowed her brows slightly when she saw his eyebrows relaxing after her explanation. She was puzzled.

What exactly happened during this mission? Why was he so tense even after returning to the country?

What did he mean when he asked if she met any suspicious people and whether she took care of them directly? Why would she kill someone so blatantly?

…No, that’s not right. Whether she would kill someone or not wasn’t the crux. The main point was that there was someone whom she needed to take care of!

Someone had followed Xia Jinyuan back into their country!

That was why he had to burn all the clothes he wore on the day itself throughout his journey back.
