She really did not understand the details of the matter. She only thought that Madam Li’s words would make things more difficult for Staff Officer Du.
After peeling the apple, Xia Jinyuan didn’t eat it. Instead, he placed it by Ye Jian’s mouth. “Come, take a bite of the apple and I’ll tell you.”
…
Ye Jian took a bite and waited for him to answer her question. Unexpectedly, Xia Jinyuan took another bite at the same spot she had taken a bite. He smiled and said, “I finally found the right way to eat an apple. It’s sweeter with a girlfriend.”
“…” Ye Jian’s beautiful face twitched. How could he say such things openly?
Captain Xia, who knew that his girlfriend was easily shy, didn’t wait for Ye Jian’s tender fist to land on him. After teasing her, he quickly became serious and explained to Ye Jian, “You can’t just listen to what she says. You have to think about why she said that. Madam Li didn’t say that to make things more difficult for Staff Officer Du. Instead, she made it more difficult for the capital city’s political regiment.”
One second, he was a ruffian, and the next second, he was full of righteousness. Ye Jian realized that she was becoming more and more familiar with Xia Jinyuan’s transition between the two sides.
Of course, she could now keep up with his sudden transitions.
Xia Jinyuan hugged Ye Jian and leaned against the bed. When his smile disappeared, there was a hint of coldness on his handsome face. “Commander Zhong of the capital city’s political regiment is Du Kaiwei’s old classmate. Madam Li said that she used Staff Officer Du to interfere with military matters and allowed Ye Ying to join the army. She was telling everyone that Staff Officer Du had stopped her, but she secretly informed Commander Zhong not to let Staff Officer Du interfere and send Ye Ying to the capital city’s political regiment.
“Staff Officer Du only recommended Ye Ying. The subsequent audits of Ye Ying were all handled by the recruitment office and the capital city’s political regiment. Madam Li was the one who used her connections to get Ye Ying into the army. At most, Staff Officer Du was just negligent of his duties.
“It may seem like Madam Li interfered in Staff Officer Du’s official affairs, but in fact, the capital city’s political regiment and the recruitment office didn’t review the paperwork strictly. The words Madam Li said earlier didn’t make things difficult for Staff Officer Du. Instead, she quickly took Staff Officer Du out of the equation and took the blame for herself. She also pushed the blame on the capital city’s political regiment and the recruitment office.
“Remember the resentment of the instructor of the capital city’s political regiment? The instructor didn’t agree with Ye Ying’s recruitment at that time, but under Commander Zhong’s persistence, the instructor had to take a step back. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have angrily pointed out in front of all the leaders that Ye Ying was recommended by Staff Officer Du.
“Madam Li is indeed a good chess player. No wonder back then…”
No wonder what? Xia Jinyuan didn’t continue down. He turned to look at Ye Jian and saw that she was stunned. He couldn’t help but laugh. “Are you surprised? You didn’t understand why Madam Li dared to talk in the conference room earlier?
“You may be clever and cunning, my little fox, but you’re no match for a wily politician. The moment something turns up against them, they’ll make the first decision in their favor to turn the tide.
“Staff Officer Du left a small city and happened to catch Madam Li’s eye. From a small company commander to his position today, his career progress has a lot to do with Madam Li. It can be said that it’s all thanks to Madam Li that Staff Officer Du’s family can be where they are today.
“Don’t make any large moves for the time being after this. Madam Li has already targeted Ye Zhifan. She won’t let Ye Ying off easily. So you should just accompany me for a few days.”
