2666 Too Bitter
Ye Jian felt a lump in her throat. Uncle Chen was right. The person who cared about her mother the most in this world was her father. As for her mother… her father would definitely take the matter to heart and seek justice for her.
“I still have a few of Mom’s diaries. They keep mentioning smuggling. Dad, do you know who Mom offended in the military unit?”
Mr. Fu felt as though a beast was roaring in his heart. He shook his head. “Your mother and I never discussed our work matters. I don’t know what she did or what mission she carried out. Just like how your mother doesn’t know why I appeared in her military unit in the past.”
Hence, her father didn’t have any clues.
!!
Ye Jian stood in a daze in disappointment. She pursed her lips slightly. No one knew what she was thinking.
Principal Chen, who was accompanying Mr. Fu, saw that his arms were trembling because of anger. He raised his hand and patted Mr. Fu’s shoulder lightly. “Major General, it’s most suitable for you to handle this matter.
“We can’t let Jian handle it. She’s still a military school student. If even the military committee has to be careful when investigating, it shows that the person behind has some power. Once he knows, Jian will have a hard time in military school!”
Mr. Fu immediately understood what Principal Chen meant. He had thought of this too.
After Mr. Fu finished speaking, Principal Chen’s eyes lit up slightly. Ye Jian’s biological father… was not simple! He had already thought it through!
“That’s right. We didn’t do anything big in the past and asked Ye Jian not to get involved because we were afraid that the mastermind wanted to deal with Ye Jian. After all, the mastermind spent a lot of effort to cripple Ye Jian in the past.”
Principal Chen changed the topic and naturally turned to Ye Jian.
“Uncle Chen, don’t…”
As soon as Ye Jian opened her mouth, Uncle Chen raised his hand and stopped her. He pointed at the barracks and said, “Girl, we’re going to have a chat. Go back to your room and rest. Tomorrow morning, you’ll get up for exercise and go to the shooting range for a few rounds. I haven’t seen you train in a long time. I wonder if you’ve deteriorated.”
“Go back to your room and rest early. I’ll have a chat with Principal Chen.”
Mr. Fu also asked Ye Jian to return to her room. Since it was inconvenient for her daughter to be present, he couldn’t let her stay.
Ye Jian had no choice but to turn around and leave.
Mr. Fu continued, “It’s all thanks to you, Principal Chen, for taking care of my daughter all these years. I’ll be abrupt this time and call you ‘Brother’. You don’t have to call me Major General Fu anymore. You’re a few years older than me. What do you think?”
“As long as you don’t mind, I won’t either.”
After taking a few steps, Ye Jian heard her fathers calling each other ‘Brother’. It was as if they had known each other for many years.
Ye Jian knew that Principal Chen would be talking about what happened to her when she was young at Ye Zhifan’s house and her mother’s remarriage.
The sun was bright during the day, and there was a bright moon at night. Although the moon was not round, it was clear and quiet.
Mr. Fu sat on the sports ground and raised his head. He stared at the moon for a long time before he forced back the tears in his eyes.
“I’ve embarrassed myself in front of you… I really can’t bear it… Jian’er… this child suffered too much when she was young… Too much.” Mr. Fu tilted his head and looked at Principal Chen, who was sitting on the sports ground with him. His voice was extremely hoarse. “This child is like the descendants of the Fu family. She suffered too much when she was young.
“I thought that she was adopted. I thought that she was better than the middle-aged woman who abandoned me on the streets. I only came back to the capital city after a few years and found my original home. I didn’t expect that… my daughter’s life was several times harder than mine.”
