Chapter 1832: Strange Person

Fortunately, the venue was small and there were many people. Otherwise, with Major Xia’s shamelessness, he would definitely hug Ye Jian while exclaiming.
Major Xia’s shamelessness was the same as his ability. It was growing by the day. Hence, if there was a chance, he would definitely let Ye Jian see how shameless he could be.
Ye Jian thought about all the things Commander Xia had done and couldn’t help but smile.
“There’s no such thing as implicating us. You’re my girlfriend and my lover. Commander Xia acknowledges you as his daughter-in-law. If the Du family dares to plot against you, the first person who won’t let the Du family off is Old Xia.
“By the way, let me tell you something that Old Xia doesn’t want others to talk about…”
“Don’t, don’t say it! I don’t want to hear it!” Ye Jian immediately interrupted him. She almost covered her ears. She was just a cadet. She didn’t have the guts to listen to the private matters that the commander-in-chief didn’t want others to know.
Xia Jinyuan said indifferently, “There are only one or two of his private affairs that Old Xia doesn’t want others to talk about. The divorce with his ex-wife has a lot to do with Du Jiayi’s mother.
“Back then, his ex-wife was hesitant about whether she should leave him or not. Old Xia was still trying hard to salvage the marriage. Right then, Madam Du introduced a talented man who could write good love poems to Old Xia’s ex-wife. Then, his ex-wife divorced Old Xia in order to pursue true love and left the country.”
“Can you stop talking…” Ye Jian’s heart was pounding. As his daughter-in-law, she couldn’t listen to this. No, no, as a cadet, she could!
“No, I have to say it!” Major Xia rejected her decisively. The more he spoke, the brighter the light in his dark eyes became. “Old Xia wanted to pursue her again after their divorce. Who knew that once his ex-wife went abroad, he couldn’t follow her abroad since he was a soldier. He was dumbfounded.
“Like the general Old Xia is, he didn’t blame Madam Du for this. However, Staff Officer Du, who was also a regiment commander back then, was very motivated. In order to compete for the position, he made a report and said that Old Xia was incapable. After his ex-wife found out, she remained firm in her decision.”
Ye Jian really didn’t want to hear it. However, the man beside her was talking excitedly. He was almost clapping as he spoke.
She did not understand why he was so happy when his mother had left.
“In short, Staff Officer Du and Old Xia have been at odds with each other for decades, so if Du Jiayi dares to plot against you, heh, Old Xia will be the first to retaliate.”
Major Xia smiled as he finished speaking. He saw his little fox raising her left hand to her forehead. He added, “I’m really grateful to Madam Du. It’s all thanks to her that I have such a good life today. Old Xia really didn’t have good taste in choosing a wife back then. No wonder my grandmother objected to it. If his ex-wife still stayed in the Xia family, I wonder if she would be able to walk the right path.”
…
After living for two lifetimes, this was the first time Ye Jian had heard a son talk about his mother like that! What did Commander Xia’s ex-wife do to make her son ignore her like this?
“I’ll tell you about my relationship with Commander Xia’s ex-wife next time. I’m afraid that you’ll feel disgusted. As for the Du family…” Xia Jinyuan’s smile disappeared, and his eyes turned vicious. He said coldly, “As for the Du family, you don’t have to worry about them. With me protecting you, if Du Jiayi dares to do anything, her military career will come to an end!
“If I can’t even protect you, I’m not worthy of being your boyfriend.”
