Chapter 2018: The Final Glory
Ye Jian rubbed her forehead and said helplessly, “Uncle Chen, I’m not an unreasonable person. Why would I blame him?
“As you said, I should really thank him.”
Principal Chen nodded in satisfaction. That was good!
When Ye Jian returned to her room, her smile disappeared instantly. Her eyes were as sharp as swords.
After Ye Zhifan’s life-saving act, it seemed that Ye Ying would really join the military!
She just hoped that the Military Disciplinary Committee would take action as soon as possible and cut off Ye Zhifan’s career path. That way, even if Ye Ying joined the military, she would still be the daughter of a criminal!
Although she didn’t want to see Ye Ying enter the military, the Du family and the Xia family didn’t see eye to eye. If Staff Officer Du really admitted Ye Ying, who had heart disease and a stain on her file, to the military, wouldn’t it be suspicious?
She needed to tell Captain Xia. If he didn’t come back in time, she could tell Commander Xia directly.
At this moment, Ye Zhifan, who was in high spirits, didn’t know that he had been targeted. He was happy to befriend the family of Staff Officer Du. When he saw the wife of Staff Officer Du holding his daughter’s hand and talking to her from time to time, he was even happier.
“Director Ye, you’re so blessed to have such a bright and obedient daughter.” Staff Officer Du had always respected his wife. To put it bluntly, he was afraid of his wife. Seeing that his wife quite liked that young lady, he smiled and added, “I have a younger daughter who’s four years older than your daughter. She’s also very obedient. Once your daughter joins the army, our two daughters will definitely be friends.”
Director Ye had long known that Staff Officer Du had a daughter in the Nanguang Military District’s art troupe. He was secretly delighted and flattered him without batting an eyelid. “Your daughter is the real daughter of a prestigious family. My daughter here is, at most, a pretty daughter from a humble family. You shouldn’t humble your daughter’s status by saying that.”
It was confirmed that Ye Ying would join the military now. Madam Li nodded her head. There was no doubt about it.
Madam Li was very satisfied with Ye Zhifan’s ability to speak. He was very skillful. He didn’t flatter her, but he always spoke well of her family and their education. Such kind words made him really likable.
Therefore, she said, “You don’t have to belittle yourself, Director Ye. A pretty girl from a humble family is as good as a pretty girl from a noble family. Although my daughter is obedient, she’s too opinionated. I can tell with one look that your daughter is thoughtful and clever. She must take the adults’ words seriously.
“Most children nowadays like to make decisions on their own. They think they’re so great, but in reality, they’re nothing without the protection of their parents.
“Your daughter is very good. I like obedient, sensible, and polite children.”
Although Ye Ying inadvertently revealed a coquettish demeanor that made people feel uncomfortable, her words were gentle and delicate. There was no anger or embarrassment on her face either. From this point of view, she was better than many of those girls who were self-righteous.
“You’re flattering me. I don’t dare to be rude in front of you. I think that you always say the right things. I’ll listen carefully to what you say.” Ye Ying looked shy as if she hadn’t received any praise. “You have an aura that other people don’t have. I can’t explain it. I just feel that if I can get your guidance, it’ll greatly benefit me.”
If Ye Zhifan’s words earlier had made Madam Li satisfied, then Ye Ying’s words really hit the nail on the head. Madam Li’s polite smile immediately turned into a sincere smile.
