Rebirth: General, Don't Mess Around!

Ye Jian didn’t expect Hou Zi to come and pick her up personally. She opened the car door and saw Hou Zi sitting in the front passenger seat. She was slightly stunned and hurriedly greeted him, ”Brother Zi”.

Hou Zi, who was wearing sunglasses, smiled and turned around to look at Ye Jian who was sitting at the back. His charming peach blossom eyes were filled with interest. ”You recognized me at first glance. It seems like you have a good memory.”

Until now, Hou Zi still admired Ye Jian’s memory. He had never seen someone with such an extraordinary memory like her.

”Even if you put on makeup and pretend to be someone else, I’d still be able to recognize you,” Ye Jian replied with a smile. She didn’t manage to find Hou Zi in her past life. She didn’t have the intention to find him in this life but she met him. How could she not have a deep impression of him?

Hou Zi laughed even louder. ”Little Six said the same thing. I remember that he had just grown up a little then. When I quarreled with Yiwei and she cried, Little Six saw me. He came up and told me that if I dared to bully Yiwei again, he wouldn’t let me off.

”He also said that as long as I dared to betray Yiwei, he would recognize me no matter what I became. After 12 years, I heard similar words from you again. I say, you and Little Six are really fated.”

Ye Jian felt the same way too. In this life, she was fated with Captain Xia.

Hou Zi admired Ye Jian. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have accepted her call and agreed to her request without hesitation. It was because he admired Ye Jian. Even if Xia Jinyuan wasn’t around, he would help her.

”I can be considered a law-abiding businessman now. I can’t be as nimble as I used to be, like when I dealt with those street gangsters you got into a fight with behind my hotel. For the matters I can help you with, I’ll certainly handle them. You’ll have to take your time to settle the rest.

”But don’t worry, I’ll still clean up whatever trail you leave behind.”

Hou Zi was shocked when he received Ye Jian’s call. He didn’t believe her when she said that she wanted to take someone’s eye tissue.

He didn’t ask for the reason. Behind Xia Yiwei’s back, he asked her how she wanted him to cooperate with her. He learned that he only needed to ask Sun Yaozu out for a business deal. She would settle the rest.

Ye Jian shook her head and smiled. ”Thank you, Brother Zi. I’ll handle the rest myself. I won’t leave any traces behind. I’ll just create a disaster.”

”A disaster?” Hou Zi was a little interested. Smart people were always slick when it came to doing things. Also, Little Six’s future wife was an extraordinarily smart person. She had such a high IQ and knew so much. If she said so, then she definitely meant it.

Hou Zi was interested and wanted to watch the whole process. Unfortunately, he was a serious businessman now. Although he wanted to get involved, he could only suppress the urge.

After washing his hands clean, he would no longer be involved in bloodshed. He still had to abide by the rules of the underworld.

The Southern Province was less prosperous than before and had a hint of coldness as the new year was approaching. The street shops did not add to the liveliness of the city even though they were playing songs to congratulate the new year.

In Ye Jian’s eyes, the liveliness and coldness had nothing to do with her. All she wanted was Sun Yaozu’s eye tissue.

After it snowed, the shops closed at around nine o’clock at night. There were not many pedestrians on the streets either. All of them were walking hurriedly with their hands clasped together.

The bus stop was cold and empty. Few people took the buses that passed by. The entire provincial city was empty as the workers had returned to their hometown for the new year. It was cold and empty, making the winter city even more desolate.
