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

Chapter 1983 Destined To Be Chaotic

Sun Dongqing snorted in disdain and replied, “I think your family is the one suffering retribution now.” She left with a smug smile on her face, but Ye Zhixiang almost fainted from anger.

“Second Brother, take a look for yourself. Look at her character! She didn’t even shed a single tear when Mom passed away and she’s even making sarcastic remarks!” Now, Ye Zhixiang could only think of relying on Ye Zhifan.

However, Ye Zhifan didn’t feel sad. Sun Dongqing had gone through so many hardships because of Grandma Ye when they first got married. It was understandable that she felt better now.

Ye Zhifan’s anger subsided when he thought about the serious matter at hand. He said calmly, “Life, old age, illness, and death are the laws of nature. Do you think you can force people to feel sad just because you’re crying?”

Grandma Ye’s sudden death did not come as a surprise to Ye Zhifan. She had been paralyzed for so long, and her temper was so bad. The doctor had reminded him many times to persuade her. If she continued to be angry, she would have a second stroke and her life would be in danger.

He had listened to the doctor speak but didn’t take any of the words to heart.

In the Ye family, apart from Ye Jian who hated the old woman, he hated her too.

When he received a call from Ye Zhixiang saying that the old woman had gotten another stroke, he made up an excuse that he was far away and it would take him a few hours to rush back. He wanted to stall for time so that he would not have to send this vicious old lady off. He also did not want to hear her last words.

Ye Zhixiang couldn’t accept Ye Zhifan’s coldness. She looked at him in disbelief. “Brother, you… How can you… Mom treated you… much better than she treated Big Brother!”

She treated him better than Ye Xinfan?

Ye Zhifan laughed coldly. “I know how to avoid Mom’s anger. I’m just smarter than Ye Xinfan. Otherwise, I’d be Mom’s punching bag.”

Ye Zhifan didn’t want to talk about history anymore. His expression was cold. He said in a business-like tone, “I don’t have much time to deal with Mom’s funeral. I plan to hand everything to the funeral company to handle. It’s the eve of Lunar New Year today. You have to go back to the Sun family for the new year. I’ll handle Mom’s funeral after the new year. You don’t have to worry.”

He did not mind pretending to be filial for a few more days after pretending for so long.

Ye Zhixiang felt slightly better after hearing this. Then, she heard him ask, “Now tell me some things about Sun Yaozu. Tell me everything you know so that I can inform the police and have them investigate more carefully.

“Tell me, how did he recover his identity? I need to start investigating from here and see if there was anyone using Sun Yaozu to do something illegal.”

He sounded so dignified, but he was actually just trying to confirm his suspicions. After hesitating for a while, Ye Zhixiang told him everything she knew. “That day, he came back drunk and told me that if you dare to commit any crimes in the future, he’ll make you unable to bear the consequences. I was a little curious and asked a few more questions. Only then did I know that there was someone noble helping him. The condition was for Yaozu to keep an eye on you.

“However, when I saw Ye Jian appear at the city tower with the leaders of the country, and then your good daughter threw me into the hospital, I eventually forgot about it.”

Ye Zhifan’s expression turned dark. He had only guessed that the person might be helping Sun Yaozu. He didn’t expect that person to want Sun Yaozu to monitor him.

When Ye Zhifan left the hospital, his heart was still in turmoil. He couldn’t calm down.

On New Year’s Eve, Ye Zhifan’s family was destined to have a rough time. Ye Jian returned to the sniper base and made dumplings with the soldiers. They celebrated the new year happily.
