Li Jinnian returned to the hospital with the determination to bring Ye Jian to Old Master Fu. Therefore, he stared at Ye Jian intently as he spoke, not missing the slightest change in her expression.

Seeing Ye Jian's expression change drastically because of his words, he felt touched. He felt that he might have found a breakthrough.

His low voice, which was as cold as the snow on Mount Tianshan, slowly revealed the past that every Fu family member remembered. "Uncle was suddenly dispatched, and no one in the family knew about it, including my maternal grandfather and grandmother.

"A year later, Grandfather, who was researching a certain technology, had a week off. Grandfather, who hadn't been home for three years, planned to go home to take a look. In the end, he was invited to another place before he could leave the research base."

Ye Jian clenched her fists on her knees. Her mother's diary clearly wrote: [I stood outside happily waiting. When the sun rose, I was still waiting. When the sun was high in the sky, I was still waiting. When the sunset covered the sky and the sun retracted its last ray of light, I was still waiting.]

When Ye Jian read those words at the time, she didn't understand the meaning behind them. With what the Demon King had just said, however, was this related? Did her mother wait from sunrise until sunset just to… wait for the man she loved to go with her to get their marriage certificate?

'Could she… interpret it that way?'

'No, I can't rush things. I have to calm down and listen to what the Demon King has to say. It isn't time for me to speak. Not everything has been made clear yet.]

As soon as she unclenched her hands, they were held by a long and strong hand. She reflexively held this hand tightly, and her heartbeat calmed down as if she had found someone to rely on.

"It's a touching love story. Listen carefully, Ye Jian." Xia Jinyuan held her hand tightly. His deep eyes had a faint smile that could calm Ye Jian down. He reminded her gently, "Don't be distracted. Listen to it first."

Li Jinnian looked at Ye Jian's interlocked fingers with Xia Jinyuan. A faint smile appeared on his lips.

He was no longer worried that Ye Jian would suddenly refuse to listen. He knew that the past had successfully attracted Ye Jian and made her calm down. She would patiently listen to him now.

"Even now, Grandfather remembers that he took a car and the train for a total of five days and five nights to reach a desolate place where there was only endless yellow sand. It was here that he met my uncle, whom he had not seen for almost four years. Only then did he learn that my uncle was imprisoned there for a year.

"Someone reported to the army that my uncle had leaked a secret and was secretly in contact with foreign countries. My uncle, like my grandfather, was in missile research. Someone reported that he had leaked the secret. No matter if it was true or not, it was a very serious accusation. To be safe, they immediately took all the research information from my uncle and secretly took it away.

"My grandfather arrived at the destination and saw my uncle, whom he had not seen for four years and could not even write to.

"It was also this time that the old man found out that Uncle was in solitary confinement for a year. He also found out that Uncle had a girlfriend in the army to whom he was going to get married. Unfortunately, three days before my uncle and aunt got their marriage certificate, my uncle was suddenly recalled and put under confinement. He lost contact with his fiancée with whom he was preparing to get their marriage certificate."

Ye Jian looked up at Li Jinnian as if to confirm something.

She didn't speak immediately, which made Li Jinnian's heart tighten. He waited for Ye Jian to speak calmly.
