Xia Jinyuan’s words shocked Princ.i.p.al Chen. He thought that Xia Jinyuan had found something.
No, it was impossible for him to have found out something.
If the military had not found out about it, how could Xia Jinyuan have found anything when he only investigated it during his training? Therefore, Xia Jinyuan probably had not found out anything and only had his suspicions.
Princ.i.p.al Chen, whose body was injured and reaction was not as fast as before, lowered his head to take a sip of warm water. He asked calmly, “Why do you ask?”
“Uncle Chen, take a look at this.” Xia Jinyuan’s gaze slid past Princ.i.p.al Chen’s face. He took out the page of the report that he didn’t show Ye Jian. “This is a copy of the military’s investigation report. The military also investigated to see if there was anything wrong with Ye Zhifan. I want to confirm what you said.”
If Xia Jinyuan was only suspicious before, Uncle Chen’s act of drinking water had turned his suspicion into certainty.
Uncle Chen must have some scruples about Ye Zhifan!
In other words, he suspected that the problem this time was very strange. It might have something to do with Ye Zhifan.
Princ.i.p.al Chen looked at the A4 paper on his blanket. He put the cup aside and picked up the report. He opened it slowly. “What? Did I say something wrong?”
He opened the A4 paper that Xia Jinyuan had folded to make it easier for him to hide it. Princ.i.p.al Chen looked calm on the surface but his heart was not.
He glanced at it casually and smiled. “There’s nothing wrong with it. It wasn’t a lie to cooperate with the military’s investigation.”
Xia Jinyuan didn’t expect to get anything from Princ.i.p.al Chen. He wasn’t in a hurry either. His eyes darkened slightly. He said slowly and elegantly, “You told the military that you don’t have any personal grudges with Director Ye. This can be considered as a personal grudge. No matter how big or how small, you indeed have a personal grudge with Ye Zhifan.
“In the end, you said, ‘I don’t think there’s a need for him to ruin his career’. Uncle Chen, ‘think’ is a word that means that you’re suspicious of Ye Zhifan.”
Princ.i.p.al Chen, who was listening quietly, could not help but have a faint look of surprise in his eyes. The military did not suspect him, but Xia Jinyuan actually suspected him just from his words!
He was indeed worthy of being a soldier king. Such sharpness and intelligence were truly extraordinary!
Princ.i.p.al Chen was also the ‘king’ of snipers. If he remained calm, the people around him naturally wouldn’t be able to detect a thing.
During Princ.i.p.al Chen’s interview with the military, Xia Jinyuan knew that the veteran king was better. That was because the veteran king managed to fool the military investigators. He made the military think that Ye Zhifan had nothing to do with this.
If he didn’t know how much Uncle Chen loved Ye Jian and that he would naturally hate Ye Zhifan and his family, Xia Jinyuan would’ve been fooled by Uncle Chen just like the military.
“Lastly, you said that your incident is just a case of ordinary medical malpractice. You wanted to cover up the truth and defend Ye Zhifan.
“Uncle Chen, I don’t understand why you said such contradictory things. However, when you drank the water just now, I became certain that you suspect Ye Zhifan.”
Although he spoke slowly, he didn’t pause at all. This meant that he didn’t give Princ.i.p.al Chen any chance to interrupt him. “Uncle Chen, I just want to know why you’re doing this.. Is it because of Ye Jian? If it’s because of her, you should tell me.”
