Chapter 2123: Bullsh*t

“Demon King, perhaps the so-called familiarity you feel is actually the appreciation between the strong.” Xia Jinyuan felt helpless as he looked at his stubborn comrade. “I once investigated Ye Jian in detail. The military has also investigated her. Demon King, I can tell you with certainty that she has nothing to do with the Li family.

“If there is a relation and I didn’t manage to find out about it, the military would’ve discovered it. The military has detailed information on the three generations of her family. You’re imagining things.”

Li Jinnian only replied calmly, “I trust my instincts.”

‘Bloody instincts!’

Xia Jinyuan cursed in his heart. Seeing that the man was determined, he reminded him with a dark expression, “There are some things bothering Ye Jian recently. Since you insist on investigating, I just hope you can postpone it for the time being. I don’t want any more trouble being caused because of your investigation.”

“Sure.” Li Jinnian nodded. He would definitely be cautious when it came to Ye Jian. However… he pursed his lips and asked, “What’s bothering Ye Jian? What happened that made you nervous?”

“No, nothing happened to Ye Jian. I’m sorry, Demon King, but I have no comment. I just hope you can delay your investigation for a while.”

The Demon King said his instincts told him Ye Jian was related to the Li family. Xia Jinyuan didn’t know what to say. He could only let Li Jinnian investigate until he gave up.

Li Jinnian, who still had to go to the military, did not stay any longer. He opened the ward door and left.

In the ward, Xia Jinyuan, who had been fighting high-intensity battles for more than ten days, raised his head and rubbed his dizzy forehead. He, who did not have enough sleep, thought quietly for a while. He carefully recalled his investigation of Ye Jian’s family back then. After thinking for a while, he confirmed that his little fox had nothing to do with the Li family!

…

If Demon King insisted on investigating, so be it. He had already reminded him not to cause trouble for the time being. With Demon King’s character, he would keep his word.

Xia Jinyuan stopped thinking and closed his eyes to rest. Later, he needed to call Hou Zi and ask what had happened to Ye Zhifan and the Du family.

And his little fox. He would have to find her in the Southern Province after he rested.

There were many things to deal with. He had to recuperate.

Xia Jinyuan, who slept until eight, opened his eyes. The first thing he did was to call Hou Zi in the Southern Province. He needed to know what Ye Zhifan and the Du family were up to.

After asking, Xia Jinyuan realized that Ye Jian had done several big things during his absence.

Hou Zi first told Xia Jinyuan everything about Sun Yaozu. He didn’t exaggerate anything. “First, she shot Sun Yaozu in the eye with a shard of glass. Then, she dealt with him on the mountain.

“I didn’t do anything. Other than cleaning up after her and dealing with the foreign bodyguards Sun Yaozu illegally hired to frame her, the rest was left to the Southern Province police.”

He explained the shocking incident in a few words. Xia Jinyuan was calm as long as his little fox was fine.

She would not make a move easily. Once she did, however, she would definitely make it big. It was fine as long as she was safe and sound.

The second thing was the videotape. Xia Jinyuan was even more at ease after hearing about it.

Although the little fox did not directly tell Hou Zi how she would handle the copies, with his understanding of her, he could guess it with a little thought.

Ye Zhifan would definitely receive one. Another was probably sent to Madam Li because the little fox wanted to cut off Ye Ying’s escape route. Another copy could’ve been sent to… the military? Old Man Xia? Both were possible.
