Reborn at Boot Camp: General, Don't Mess Around!

Chapter 1756: Ungrateful

Principal Chen and Commissar Yan’s faces darkened. This man didn’t have good intentions at all.

The two of them didn’t reply and just looked on indifferently. They were both soldiers. As long as they focused their attention slightly, even their gazes would have a sense of truthfulness, so much so that it made others feel fear.

Ye Zhifan, who had been an official for 20 years, was very experienced. He maintained a polite smile and continued, “When my sister-in-law died, she left some things behind. I handed them to my wife at home but she later told me that she lost them.

“A few days ago, I went home to clean up my old belongings and found these relics in a large closet. I wanted to hand them to the girl personally. How about this, Principal Chen? When you’re feeling better, I’ll hand my sister-in-law’s relics to you. I’ll have to trouble you to hand them to Ye Jian.”

If they chased him away today, they wouldn’t have another chance.

Ye Zhifan smiled and looked at Principal Chen quietly. He waited for a reply.

Ha, if he did not mention these things, Chen Dongfeng would chase him away.

Principal Chen would not chase him away. Hence, he said calmly, “It turns out that you didn’t carelessly throw the things away. It’s just that your family is too casual that you thoughtlessly misplaced the belongings of a martyr.”

Although his voice was faint, his gaze became sharper. He stared coldly at the righteous official. Principal Chen’s face gradually turned cold. “How ungrateful. Director Ye, you really deserve it. Sun Xueqing sacrificed her life to get a position for you so that her daughter could be taken care of by both her uncle and aunt. In the end, you accepted the benefits but forgot about your duty.

“I don’t know if you and the people involved have a conscience or not, but I think you must have a clear conscience. Otherwise, why would you casually place Sun Xueqing’s belongings?”

Ye Zhifan’s expression turned cold. There was a trace of ruthlessness in his eyes.

Did Chen Dongfeng know something? Did Grandpa Gen mention something to him before he passed away?

It had to be. Otherwise, it would be impossible for him to say something like ‘You accepted the benefits but forgot about your duty!’ He must know about it and that was why he dared to say it!

That was right. Even his niece knew that he had Sun Xueqing’s jade pendant. How could Chen Dongfeng not know?

Ye Zhifan’s cold expression only lasted for a few seconds. In the blink of an eye, he was back to his scholarly and honest self. Ye Zhifan sighed and said, “I can only explain the misunderstanding to Ye Jian personally. Principal Chen, I won’t disturb your rest. I’ll come and visit you next time.”

As expected of an official! He was so blunt and ended the conversation in just a few seconds. Principal Chen nodded his head coldly. “Okay, I won’t send you off.” He had to remind Ye Jian not to let her guard down.

Before he left, Principal Chen asked him to take the fruits he brought with him. In the end, Commissar Yan took the fruits with a smile and distributed them to the nurses outside the ward. He said to the nurses with a smile, “This is Mr. Ye’s treat. Don’t stand on ceremony.”

Ye Zhifan almost couldn’t hold himself back. However, when he thought about Ye Ying’s future, he could only endure it.
