Rebirth: General, Don't Mess Around!

Ye Jian was indeed stunned. Even though she had lived two lives, the combined age of her two lifetimes would only make her in her 30s. She was not as experienced as Madam Li, who had always lived in the center of the regime.

When she saw Madam Li stepping in and taking all the responsibility, she was quite surprised. Wasn’t this related to power?

After Xia Jinyuan’s explanation, she realized that it was not like what she had seen on the surface. It turned out that Madam Li’s plan was to push the blame on the capital city’s political regiment and the recruitment office.

No wonder Commander Zhong did not say a word from the beginning to the end. He definitely understood Madam Li’s intentions. No matter how much he wanted to say, he had to suppress it.

Just as Captain Xia had said, compared to Madam Li, he was too weak.

However, she had never thought of going against Madam Li. Anyway, it was already impossible for Ye Ying to marry into the Du family in this lifetime.

But there was something else she had to tell Xia Jinyuan.

Ye Jian pursed her lips and sat up straight. She faced the man with a sharp gaze. ”Captain Xia, you said that Madam Li is targeting Ye Zhifan now. Do you think the person behind him will show up this time?”

”Not necessarily.” Xia Jinyuan, who was thinking about this, pursed his lips. A cold glint flashed across his deep eyes. ”The Du family is like the sun in the sky now. The family has members in both the military and political departments. The person behind Ye Zhifan has been hiding for so long. It can be seen that he’s a very cautious person.

A very cautious person won’t easily go against another powerful force.

”The person behind Ye Zhifan will either keep silent or help him… But I think the latter is more likely.”

If the latter was more likely… Ye Jian felt a little regretful. If that was the case, she still had no way of knowing who the mastermind was.

Xia Jinyuan, who could tell what she was thinking, had a smile in his eyes. He rubbed his curved index finger against her pretty nose bridge affectionately. ”You’re thinking about it again. The military and the military commission have already started an investigation. Are you still afraid that the person behind Ye Zhifan won’t appear?

”It’s just that the waters are rather deep. The investigation of the military commission and the military has to be carried out in secret and safely. Trust the investigation team. They’ll give you an answer. It might not be satisfactory, but there’ll be an answer.”

Ye Jian’s frown eased. She wanted an answer to who had caused her mother’s sacrifice.

The mystery of her previous life was finally slowly being unraveled in this life. She had already waited for two lifetimes. Was she afraid of waiting any longer?

Time would eventually give her an answer.

Xia Jinyuan had always known that Ye Jian had a huge knot in her heart that had to do with Ye Zhifan’s family. Every time Ye Zhifan’s family was mentioned in the past, her expression would inadvertently reveal coldness.

She had suffered when she was young and only learned to resist in junior high. The knot in her heart had long been planted and would take a while for it to be untied. He did not want to trigger her old wounds, so he could only secretly help her.

Fortunately, she could keep her composure. This time, she managed to push Ye Ying down and severely harm Ye Zhifan.

As smart as she was, she also made his heart ache.

Now when Ye Zhifan’s family was mentioned, there was no longer any gloominess in her eyes… Everything she did was worth it.

Ye Jian didn’t mention Ye Ying anymore. Now that Ye Ying had Madam Li targeting her, she didn’t have to care about her anymore. Falling from the clouds into the mud… It must be uncomfortable.

That night, Ye Jian slept exceptionally soundly. Even when Major Xia hugged her in the middle of the night and pressed most of his body against her, she didn’t wake up.
