The jade pendant, her mother's belongings, finding her biological father… In her past life, Ye Jian would have been moved.

But in this lifetime…

Ye Jian looked at Ye Zhifan who wanted her to fight with Sun Ying so that she could vent his anger for him. The corners of her lips curled up slightly. She smiled faintly and said, "The jade is just an inanimate object. You said that it gave you a meteoric rise, but why hasn't the person behind the jade appeared now that something has happened to you?"

These words stabbed Ye Zhifan's heart. He had thought about it, but he couldn't understand why the person behind the jade didn't appear either.

A sinister look flashed past Ye Zhifan's eyes. He couldn't answer Ye Jian and didn't know how to.

Ye Zhifan's heart sank when he saw the faint smile in Ye Jian's eyes. He lay on the marble platform in front of the iron window and placed one hand on the stone surface. He asked in a low voice, "Do you know something?"

If not, why was she still indifferent after hearing so much?

Anyone would be tempted to have a chance to soar into the sky and sweep away all the obstacles that would hinder their future! Why was Ye Jian so calm? It was as if she knew the truth all along!

Ye Jian saw that his pupils were constricted and couldn't help but smile. "What do I know? That your meteoric rise was all because of the person behind the jade? That the reason why you're where you are today is because of Sun Dongqing and Sun Ying?

"I know all of it. I've heard about it outside. You even told me about it personally. How can I not know?"

He wanted to ask her if she knew about the power behind the jade. Heh, she wouldn't tell him! She would let him think and guess alone! The more he wanted to know, the more she wouldn't tell him. She wanted to torture him on purpose!

In her past life, she had lived too many such days. Since she had the chance to repay him in this life, she would definitely do so.

Ye Zhifan knew her intentions, but what could he say?

For a moment, he gritted his teeth in hatred. The fire in his heart burned brighter and brighter until his eyes turned red. His expression was especially sinister.

"Ye Jian, I don't believe that you won't be tempted! The jade was left to you by your mother. It's very likely that your biological father gave it to your mother. I don't believe that… you won't be tempted!" He gritted his teeth and paused as if to increase his bargaining power. "This is such a good opportunity. It's a chance to make Sun Ying and Sun Dongqing unable to leave prison forever. I don't believe that you won't be tempted!"

Ye Zhifan was good at manipulating people's hearts.

But to Ye Jian, what he said… wasn't attractive at all.

She still had a faint smile on her face. She looked at Ye Zhifan as if she was looking at a clown performing on stage. Her gaze was filled with mockery. "It's true that the jade was left behind by my mother. I'll definitely take it back, but not now. As for who my biological father is, Director Ye, you don't have to worry about that."

Who was her biological father? She already knew who her biological father was. Why should she care about the jade?

The jade… couldn't be touched!

Now that Ye Zhifan had fallen, the military and the Military Discipline Commission were secretly investigating the truth behind her mother's sacrifice. She didn't believe that the person behind the jade could remain calm!

That person would definitely do something. She was waiting for them to make a move!

She wasn't the only one waiting. The military and the Military Discipline Commission must be waiting too!
