Chapter 1372: Twisted Heart

Thinking about Commander-in-Chief Xia teasing Xia Jinyuan, Ye Jian pursed her lips and laughed. “Commander Xia is a strict and kind father. You can tell from conversation.” She paused for a moment. Her dry red lips curved into a smile. “I didn’t expect Commander Xia to have such a side to him.”

“It has never happened in front of me. My eldest uncle, second uncle, youngest uncle, and aunt all dote on their daughters. They are ruthless to their sons. My male cousins were beaten up many times in the past.” Xia Jinyuan mentioned his relatives unintentionally. The Xia family always cared about familial relations.h.i.+ps. Every family’s child was like their own. If their son got into trouble, they would beat him up. If their daughter got into trouble… As long as they didn’t make any moral mistakes, they would ignore them.

Ye Jian couldn’t help but swallow her saliva when she heard that. Eldest uncle, second uncle, youngest uncle, aunt… adding Commander Xia, who was ranked third, there were five elders! They were indeed a big family in the capital city. They were full of people.

“When you have the time, I will bring you home and familiarise you with my relatives. Daughters are very pampered in our Xia family. My family thrives with male descendants but there’s only one female descendant every generation! My generation only has Xia Yiwei.”

The two of them walked past Ye Zhifan in a low voice and entered the guesthouse. After checking their room number, they went upstairs together. When they tread on the first step, Xia Jinyuan suddenly turned his head and smiled at Ye Zhifan. He gave Ye Zhifan a condescending look.

Ye Zhifan didn’t expect him to suddenly turn around. He was caught off guard and was stunned by the look in his eyes. This young man’s relations.h.i.+p with Ye Jian… wasn’t an ordinary one. They might be lovers!

After staring at their backs for a while, he calmed himself down and entered the guesthouse with a tight smile.

For his daughter, he needed to talk to Chen Dongfeng tonight.

At this moment, Ye Ying was waiting anxiously in the hotel. The television was on, but her mind was not on it. She paced back and forth in her room, impatience written all over her pretty face.

Her father asked her to wait in the hotel alone. It was already past eight o’clock but there was still no news. She wondered if her father had spoken to the lieutenant general and if he had settled her matter.

“As the summer vacation ends, the first day of reporting for the new students at our local Kainan University…” The provincial television channel broadcasted a piece of news about the new students entering university. Ye Ying, who was sitting on the bed, stared at the television intently.

Kainan University was one of the top universities in the Southern Province. It was also one of the top universities in the country.

In the past, she didn’t take it seriously!

But now, students who were worse than her all managed to get into the top universities. A few students from her cla.s.s even called her to tell her which university they got into. They pretended to comfort her and said that she can take the exam next year!

Pfft! They were all here to laugh at her!

“All of you, just wait. One day, all of you will listen to me obediently!” Ye Ying clenched the bedsheet and gritted her teeth. Her almond-shaped eyes were filled with hatred.

When she enters the capital city’s political regiment, when she climbs extremely high, she must let them see her!

Ye Ying’s heart that became increasingly twisted didn’t know that she was sinking deeper and deeper into mud!

Until 9.30 pm, Ye Ying opened the door of the hotel several times but didn’t see the familiar figure. As time pa.s.sed, Ye Ying’s heart sank.
