If Commissioner Cai’s old friend were his mother, he would definitely mention it. If not, there was no need for him to know other people’s private affairs.

Ye Jian calmed down completely. Even the Commissioner of the Tongzhou City Public Security Bureau couldn’t read her mind.

A polite reply, a calm smile, and a calm face. When Commissioner Cai took the cup from her, he couldn’t help but say, “You’re as steady as Mount Tai. It’s rare.”

Commissioner Cai didn’t immediately mention the similarity between his old friend and Ye Jian. He hadn’t settled his business. He could talk about his private matters later.

Commissioner Cai took a sip of cold water and put down the glass of water. He looked at Ye Jian again. She was drinking the cold water calmly under his gaze. There was no nervousness on her face nor restraint in her actions. Director Cai smiled and nodded secretly.

She managed to resolve the hotel crisis with her strength. After that, she contacted the Tongzhou police without any intention of taking credit for it. Then, she immediately retreated and let the police handle the follow-up matters. It was rare for her to be able to act so steadily at such a young age.

“You captured six criminals and provided clues to the main case of Tongzhou. Little Ye, I will write this merit in the report and hand it over to the assembly hall.” Commissioner Cai started talking about official business and explained everything clearly. He wasn’t as ambiguous as the deputy bureau and was afraid that Ye Jian would steal the credit of the Tongzhou police.

“Although the Tongzhou police knew there were criminals inside the hotel, they didn’t know what their plans were. They also didn’t know that the hotel’s security personnel had joined the cult. If it weren’t for your help, things wouldn’t have gone so smoothly tonight.”

“I will write everything in detail in the report. I won’t hide anything. If there are any commendations later on, the Tongzhou police will contact you in time. It will help your military career.”

Soldiers were the same as the police. They needed to achieve something. The more commendations they received, the more help they would have in the future.

Also, the credit belonged to her. No one could claim it; what belonged to her could only belong to her. The Tongzhou police wouldn’t snatch the credit from the soldier who helped them.

However, Ye Jian didn’t need it. She smiled and said, “You’re too polite, Commissioner Cai. This is the responsibility of a soldier. Besides, I didn’t do anything else. I just caught a few criminals along the way. The rest of the work will be taken care of by the Tongzhou police.”

She was just like her old friend. Although she was a lady, she was an upright person. She never liked to show off.

After drinking half a glass of water and chatting for four to five minutes, Commissioner Cai, who had clearly heard her attitude towards this matter, relaxed his body. He leaned against the backrest of the casual round chair and looked at Ye Jian with a long and deep gaze. “Comrade Ye, I’m sorry to ask you a few personal questions. If you don’t want to answer, you don’t have to worry. Just tell me directly.”

If he didn’t get to the bottom of this, he would regret it.

Ye Jian tightened her grip on the glass of water. She smiled and said, “Please speak.”

Facing Commissioner Cai’s profound gaze, Ye Jian knew that he was reminiscing about his old friend deeply at this moment. Her heart, which had originally calmed down, was once again in turmoil. She thought that Commissioner Cai didn’t plan to talk about her old friend, but when he suddenly mentioned it when she wanted to leave, hope rose again in Ye Jian’s heart.
