Chapter 4417: Who Are You?

The only contact between Commissioner Cai and Ye Jian was Martyr Sun Xueqing. Now that the real cause of Martyr Sun Xueqing’s death had been investigated, Commissioner Cai, who was her comrade, should know about it too. Since the matter had been resolved, why was he here?

From the moment he recognized Commissioner Cai, Xia Jinyuan had been guessing why Commissioner Cai was here.

It wasn’t that he didn’t think positively, but Commissioner Cai’s facial expression was anxious as he waited. He spoke a little quickly and would look at the laboratory from time to time. Xia Jinyuan understood that he was very anxious to find Ye Jian. He had something important to tell Ye Jian.

Now, he had revealed enough information. It was up to Commissioner Cai to believe him.

Commissioner Cai didn’t believe him.

He now knew that Lieutenant Colonel Xia had an extraordinary relationship with Ye Jian. He also knew that Ye Jian trusted him very much. However, what he wanted to tell Ye Jian was very important. Even if Old Chen personally entrusted Ye Jian to Xia Jinyuan, he wouldn’t trust him completely.

The human heart was the hardest to understand!

“There’s no hurry. Little Ye should be out soon. Let’s wait for her to come out,” Commissioner Cai replied with a smile. He invited Xia Jinyuan to sit down with him. “Have a seat. Let’s have a chat when Little Ye comes out.”

Hearing this, Xia Jinyuan took a deep breath and had no choice but to speak again. “The reason why the military knows about the sacrifice of Martyr Sun Xueqing is because I reported it to the military. If you don’t trust me or have any doubts, you can ask me. I’ll definitely answer all your questions.

“Ye Jian is the most important person in my life. I want to know everything about her. If she has any difficulties, I want to help her solve them. Commissioner Cai, please tell me why you’re here.”

As expected of his mother-in-law’s comrade. Xia Jinyuan admired Commissioner Cai’s prudence as an old soldier.

Commissioner Cai’s expression changed. “Who are you to Little Ye?”

It was good that he was asking this.

Xia Jinyuan replied calmly, “Someone she’ll spend the rest of her life with–lover, friend, comrade…”

Lover, friend, comrade… That meant he was Little Ye’s boyfriend.

“Your surname is Xia, but you’re a lieutenant colonel. And you can report matters directly to the military…” Commissioner Cai sized up the young lieutenant colonel again. Xia… Xia… He investigated Red Plum’s sacrifice. Commander Xia, the highest-ranking general in the military, had personally met Commissioner Cai and contacted him many times on the phone. Both of them had the surname ‘Xia’…

“Xia Xinhui, Commander Xia, is my father.”

Commissioner Cai’s body trembled. He relaxed instantly. “A group of people came to find me and asked about Red Plum’s deeds when she was alive. We probed and found out that they were actually here for Ye Jian.”

Without hiding anything, Commissioner Cai explained it to Xia Jinyuan.

“Not only did they find me, but they also found a few of our old comrades. They were all asked if Red Plum had any descendants. Li Chuhai was executed, and Red Plum’s innocence was cleared. Why would anyone ask about Red Plum’s deeds back when she was alive? Why would they ask if Red Plum had any descendants?

“Who are these people and why are they investigating? We have to understand these things.”

The atmosphere in the pavilion became oppressive again. It was even more solemn.

The night wind in the middle of the night was a little cool. After the rain, the heat in Xiang City still hadn’t dissipated. Frogs could be heard all around. The summer night wasn’t quiet. Even the chirping of the insects seemed a little restless.

At this moment, Xia Jinyuan’s expression was murderous. His handsome and noble facial features were as cold as frost. Even his breathing was frosty.

After a moment of silence, he said, “Someone knows why Li Chuhai was executed. They’re trying all means to find out who took Li Chuhai’s life.
