Rebirth: General, Don't Mess Around!

What did that mean? Xia Jinyuan narrowed his eyes and looked at Principal Chen. ”I need you to explain it more clearly.”

”I don’t understand it either. Grandpa Gen only told me that Ye Xinfan is not Ye Jian’s father. If you have time, go back to Shuikou Village. Commissioner Cai sent me a diary written by Sun Xueqing. I didn’t read it. Commissioner Cai didn’t read it either.

Perhaps there’s an answer in it.”

Xia Jinyuan nodded lightly. He must go and get this diary. He would bring Ye Jian along.

”If you’re investigating Ye’s mother, I can pass you a personal contact…”

Before Principal Chen could finish his sentence, Xia Jinyuan suddenly stood up. Realizing something, Principal Chen immediately turned to look at the door of the ward and saw Ye Jian.

Ye Jian didn’t seem to be awake yet. She stared at Principal Chen who was sitting on the bed. Principal Chen was worried about her. He turned his head and asked Xia Jinyuan quickly, ”This girl, did she hear anything?”

”Don’t worry.”

Just as Xia Jinyuan was speaking, Ye Jian seemed to have woken up. The moment the door was pushed open, her figure rushed to the bedside like lightning.

”Little girl, my old bones are about to be shattered by you.”

Principal Chen didn’t know whether to laugh or cry when Ye Jian hugged him so tightly. This girl was in such a hurry but she still knew to avoid his hand that was attached to the drip. Sigh, she was indeed worried.

It wasn’t that Ye Jian hadn’t woken up yet. It was just that she was so surprised she was stunned. She hugged Principal Chen’s shoulders and didn’t want to let go. She said in a low voice, ”You’re so skinny that you’re all bones now. Back then, you promised me that you would take good care of yourself. But now… Uncle Chen, you went back on your word.”

She didn’t cry because she knew her family didn’t like seeing her cry. She didn’t feel sad because she was afraid that her emotions would affect Principal Chen.

”It’s good to lose weight. Only when you’re old and thin will you be energetic and healthy. You, on the other hand, have lost a lot of weight. You’re so skinny that you don’t even have much flesh on your face.” Principal Chen patted Ye Jian’s trembling body lightly. This child was so obedient that it made his heart ache.

Knowing that he didn’t like to see her cry, she was suppressing her emotions so that she wouldn’t make him unhappy.

He could not understand why someone would make things difficult for such an obedient child.

Xia Jinyuan moved a chair to the side of the ward. He grabbed Ye Jian’s shoulder and asked her to sit down. ”Uncle Chen just woke up. You can talk to him. I’ll get breakfast.”

His original plan was to send Ye Jian back to school. Now, he had to change his plan. He needed to go to Shuikou Village first. Ye Jian could only go back to school alone.

This four-day leave was a little rushed. If he went to Shuikou Village, he would not be able to go to the National Science University.

Xia Jinyuan, who had booked a new flight ticket, came over with some porridge. He happened to see the doctor doing a ward round. After the doctor finished writing on the medical record, he smiled and said, ”I didn’t expect you to know about these medications. I almost thought that you were a military doctor.”

Then, he said to Principal Chen, ”Your child is really smart. She was able to learn medicine by herself.”

Ye Jian was changing the drip for Principal Chen. He had taken too many drips during this period of time. Principal Chen’s arm had countless holes and there were many bruises left behind from the injections. The nurse failed to inject it properly even after two tries. Ye Jian disinfected her hands and asked the nurse to step aside while she injected Principal Chen with the needle.

It made the doctors around her think that she was a military doctor.
