That’s right. The woman was pretty and she was a student from a famous military school. The man’s image was even better. He was a colonel or a major too. Ye Jian had good eyesight when it came to choosing her boyfriend.
He wasn’t afraid of the rank of a colonel or a major. He was just afraid that the other party had military power behind him!
Thinking about this, Ye Zhifan immediately restrained the coldness on his face. Ye Jian couldn’t help but smile when she saw this. Look, Ye Zhifan must be guessing Captain Xia’s identity now. Then, he thought of something and hurriedly added on to his hypocrisy so that he wouldn’t do something that would leave a bad impression.
“Mr. Ye, you’re the person my grandpa didn’t want to see the most when he was alive. This is because he knows that you’re a person who would never do things unless it’s beneficial,” said Ye Jian calmly. Just one sentence made Ye Zhifan’s expression change drastically. “Mr. Ye suddenly appeared at my grandpa’s funeral. You must be here for ‘benefits’.”
“As for what kind of ‘benefits’ they are…” Ye Jian glanced at Ye Zhifan’s cold gaze. At this moment, Ye Ying was staring at Xia Jinyuan. “Mr. Ye has a huge appetite for wanting to send Ye Ying to the capital city’s political regiment.”
Xia Jinyuan loved Ye Jian’s ruthlessness towards her enemies. Hearing that, he smiled lazily and elegantly. Ye Ying, who was staring at him, was shocked.
The young man beside the wicked girl… She had seen him before in Provincial No.1 Middle School!
Yao Jing. That’s right. The first person who discovered this man was Yao Jing. She even instigated her to ask for this man’s contact number but he ignored her before she could say anything!
At that time, she felt embarrassed but she still had to coax Yao Jing. She could only pretend that she didn’t care.
After almost two years, she saw the young man who embarrassed her once again. Ye Ying’s face turned pale.
That year, this man’s purpose for coming to the school was to look for Ye Jian!
As Ye Jian was speaking, Ye Ying said softly, “Dad, this man should be familiar with Ye Jian. I saw him in my second year.” Ye Ying always remembered the person who embarrassed her. “He came to Provincial No.1 Middle School to look for Ye Jian. I remember it correctly. It must be him.”
“You have seen him before?” Ye Zhifan’s gaze changed when he heard this. He asked his daughter, “When you saw him, was he in military uniform or casual clothes?”
“Casual clothes.” Ye Ying glanced at Xia Jinyuan and replied quietly, “I only saw him once. After that, I never saw him again. Dad, I’m afraid their relationship isn’t simple.”
He didn’t wear a military uniform… He didn’t even wear a military uniform at Uncle Gen’s funeral. Did he guess wrongly? Was he not a soldier at all but a scion from a wealthy family?
No, that’s not right. Normal rich kids didn’t have his aura. An aura that was hard to explain. He just felt that his identity wasn’t simple.
He accompanied Ye Jian to send Uncle Gen off. He stood beside Ye Jian during the memorial service and accompanied her all the way during the funeral. Their relationship may be acknowledged by Uncle Gen.
Couple?
Relatives?
Or… who?
Ye Zhifan clenched his fists. This man must have a powerful background. He must find out the truth. He would only feel at ease if he found out the truth.
“Ye Jian, I’m your uncle after all. You don’t know how to respect your elders in front of your friends. Aren’t you afraid that he will make fun of you? Aren’t you worried that your friend’s family won’t accept you?” He must investigate. He needed to test the waters first!
