2474 The Biggest Clue Appears
“Little Six told me that an outstanding girl like Ye Jian will fall into a wolf’s den if she goes to a masculine military unit. She’ll be surrounded by hungry wolves. For the sake of his lifelong happiness, he’ll always be thinking about how to bring Ye Jian to his side.
“He’s your brother, and you’re his sister. Since you want the two of them to be together, don’t get involved. Do you understand?”
After he finished speaking, Hou Zi hugged his wife tightly. He lowered his head and kissed his silent wife’s forehead. “Little Six is different from me. Although he’s young, he’s much more mature than when I was 27 years old. He has a sense of responsibility and won’t do anything to make Little Ye sad. Don’t include Little Six when talking about other men. He’s a soldier. He was born different from hooligans like me.”
Xia Yiwei remained silent. It was too late… She had said too much.
“I want to take an afternoon nap. I’m so tired. You can accompany Little Ye tomorrow. I won’t be going.” Xia Yiwei felt a little guilty, so she closed her eyes and refused to chat anymore.
!!
Hou Zi observed her for a while and narrowed his eyes slightly. It looked like… she had said something bad to Ye Jian. He wondered if Little Six would contact him. He needed to talk to him.
The sun was s.h.i.+ning brightly outside. The glaring sunlight made people unable to open their eyes. Without an umbrella, Ye Jian pushed open the bank door and walked out of the bank after about ten minutes. Soon, she left in a car.
After returning to Hotel Caesar, Ye Jian opened the yellow envelope. The letter was a thin piece of ordinary paper with thick red stripes. The person who wrote it must have written it deliberately with their left hand or hired someone to write it. The handwriting was crooked. If there were any mistakes, they used a fountain pen to correct them.
It was indeed the original copy. Ye Zhifan didn’t lie to her.
There wasn’t much content in the letter, but it was just like what Ye Zhifan said. The person behind the jade wanted to cripple her and asked Ye Zhifan to hide the jade in advance so that no one would know. ‘I’ll turn you from a village official into a high-ranking official.’ To emphasize the importance of this sentence, there were two lines drawn below.
Ye Jian’s gaze landed on the double line. They were very straight, and the length of the two lines was the same. It was as though it was a calculated move.
From this, it could be seen that the person who wrote this letter was obsessive-compulsive.
She had no way of finding out who wrote the letter, but the double lines must have been done by someone behind the scenes.
There weren’t many words. The person only took up half a page. However, to Ye Zhifan, the sentence ‘I’ll turn you from a village official into a high-ranking official’ was enough to convince him.
After so many years, he had yet to become a high-ranking official from a village official.
After keeping the yellowed letter carefully, Ye Jian called Princ.i.p.al Chen, who was the instructor of the sniper base in the Southern Province.
Princ.i.p.al Chen didn’t know that she was back in the Southern Province. Hence, when he heard that she was at Hotel Caesar, he immediately said, “I’ll take a car over now. Wait for me at the hotel.”
However, Ye Jian didn’t want him to go back and forth. She smiled and said, “Uncle Chen, have a good rest if you have a break. Sun Ying’s court session is tomorrow. It’s not a big deal. Don’t worry.”
With Madam Li’s interference and the delay in notifying her of the court date, it was obvious that she would see Sun Ying’s smug face tomorrow.
If she couldn’t promise Uncle Chen that she would know about the movements of Ye Zhifan and his family in detail, she wouldn’t have told Uncle Chen about her return to the Southern Province.
