Thinking about it now, if it weren’t for Guan Chenxi’s military background that made him highly vigilant, Ye Tianxin and her grandmother might have lost their lives in that fire.
She had been lucky that night. She read through the diary and didn’t sleep well.
If she was asleep at that time, the consequences would be unimaginable.
Even if the fire turned out to be arson, only Ye Youran would be found.
If things got blown up, what could Elder Brother Li do?
Even if Ye Youran was sentenced to death, Ye Tianxin and her grandmother would still be dead. Even if Ye Tianxin and her grandmother were lucky enough not to get burned to death, it was certain that she would be unrecognizable.
What was frustrating was that the culprits, Ye Guoliang and Zhu Dongmei, were still at large until today.
“Tianxin, you have some good rest. Mom, you can accompany Tianxin first. I have something to say to Xiao Cang.”
Since Xie Xuning said so, it was impossible for Li Qingcang to stay in the ward any longer. He reluctantly followed Xie Xuning to the corridor and spoke first, “Uncle, if you want to separate me and Tianxin, I’m sorry. That’s not going to happen.”
Xie Xuning glared at Li Qingcang. “Xiao Cang, in your heart, am I such a person?”
“Yes,” Li Qingcang replied unceremoniously.
Xie Xuning had nothing to say, so he stood quietly in the corridor, occupied by his thoughts.
When he was just in the ward, he wondered, ‘Mom is here. Tianxin is here. But where is Ye Linlang?’
Where was his wife, Ye Linlang?
Where was she?
“Xiao Cang, do you know where Linlang is?”
Li Qingcang didn’t know how to respond to Xie Xuning’s inquiry. He wasn’t expecting it from him.
“I don’t know. I heard Grandmother say that Auntie was missing. However, if someone deliberately caused what happened to you and Grandmother back then, it means that there is another reason behind Auntie’s disappearance.”
His burning hope went out just like that.
Xie Xuning couldn’t describe his current mood.
He felt sour and bitter.
Humans were indeed greedy.
After finding his daughter, he wanted to find his wife next.
“I know.”
Xie Xuning didn’t say a word anymore. At such a time, Li Qingcang couldn’t help but sympathize with Xie Xuning. A thought occurred to him. Had he given up when he saw Ye Tianxin not breathing, he would have been in Xie Xuning’s shoes. He would feel what Xie Xuning was feeling at the moment.
“Oh, by the way, Uncle, Tianxin’s mother kept a military medal. Currently, it’s with Yan Ge. Some time ago, I asked him, and he said that he couldn’t find the source of the medal.”
Regarding the military medal, it had always been strictly investigated.
Military medals issued through normal channels could be found in the archives, when and why it was awarded to whom.
Yet, the military medal in Ye Linlang’s possession was untraceable.
The military medal was genuine.
It was just that in the archives, this military medal didn’t seem to exist at all.
“Can’t find it?” Xie Xuning asked, a crease formed on his forehead.
Li Qingcang replied, “Yes, we can’t find it. Originally, Tianxin wanted to find who the military medal belonged to. This way, we could find you or your family through the medal. However, Yan Ge took it to investigate, but nothing was found. I wanted to come to you to help investigate, but who would have thought…” You were Tianxin’s father.
Xie Xuning didn’t respond. When he learned that Ye Tianxin was kidnapped, he had experienced too many things in less than a day.
