Xia Jinyuan retracted his gaze and smiled at Ye Jian. "Nothing. Let's go. The sooner we settle this, the sooner we can leave."
They only had a brief ti together. He did not wish to be disturbed.
"Okay." Ye Jian tilted her head and smiled at him. Her eyes were as gentle as ink. They were reserved and clean. Her srizing gaze made its way into Xia Jinyuan's heart.
Her smile was clean but also carried traces of stubbornness.
Just like in the mountains of Shuikou Village that year, she led their mountain patrol team through the dense forest and pointed in the direction of the criminals. When she looked back, she smiled at several of the male soldiers. Her eyes were like autumn waves and as bright as the stars. He would rember that sight of her forever.
Ye Ying had arrived at the conference room. Two ard guards stood to her left and right, hence she didn't dare to be as impudent as she was outside, let alone scream.
Shoulders shaking, she sat in the cold leather conference chair with panic in her eyes.
She was afraid, so afraid that even though the conference room was fully heated, her hands and feet were still cold.
It was so cold that she could feel the chill in her bones.
It was too much. Too much! Her heart felt as if it was being gripped by a pair of huge, invisible hands. It beca painful for her even to try to take deep breaths. She seed to have lost the freedom to breathe.
The conference room was not small. The conference table alone could accommodate 20 seats. There was only Ye Ying and the two silent guards in the large conference room. The oppressive silence made Ye Ying listen to her own breathing.
No one walked into the conference room imdiately. The first ones to enter the room were Commander Zhong and the instructor of the capital city's political regint, followed by Staff Officer Du, Madam Li, and Ye Jian.
As for Xia Jinyuan, he would walk in even if he was not allowed to.
"The Li family has lost so much face, yet you still dare to lie to . Old Du, I want to know how the capital city's political regint will handle this!"
The domineering Madam Li did not hand over the videotape when she arrived at the military headquarters. Her assistant told her that the scene in the videotape was really unsightly. If she really took it out, it would only embarrass the Du family even more.
However, she was worried that if she didn't take out the videotape, the capital city's political regint would go easy on Ye Ying. How could she be satisfied with that outco?
Only by telling her husband in advance could she ensure that the capital city's political regint wouldn't treat Ye Ying's case lightly.
Staff Officer Du still didn't know what had happened. Ye Zhifan's divorce wasn't enough to make his wife so angry.
If she didn't ntion anything in the car and wasn't saying anything now, how was he going to talk to the capital city's political regint?
Moreover, did she forget that Ye Ying joined the army because of his recomndation? Besides, the procedure was handled in a day. It would be difficult for him to explain himself now.
Most importantly, even Old Xia knew about this matter. He couldn't even resolve it secretly.
Staff Officer Du, who was not affected by his wife's anger, asked calmly, "What exactly happened? At least let know what's going on. If you don't tell , how am I supposed to talk to the political regint?
"Also, don't forget that the reason why Ye Ying was able to enter the capital city's political regint was because of my recomndation.
"Tell what's going on now. When everyone arrives, I'll have to go into the conference room."
Du Jiayi tugged on Madam Li's sleeve and whispered, "Mom, what happened? You scolded Ye Ying so fiercely just now. Did Assistant He tell you sothing about Ye Ying that made you angry? Since…"
Knock, knock, knock…
A knock on the door interrupted the three of them. A civilian pushed open the door and saluted as he reported, "Reporting. Commander Zhong and the instructor of the capital city's political regint have arrived. Please proceed to the conference room."
