Ye Jian was a thorn in their family’s hearts. She was a thorn that could not be removed or touched. He wanted to get rid of her as much as his daughter, Ye Ying. However, now was not the time to do it. He still had to wait.

“Ye Jian is just a military school student now, while you’re in the art troupe. The two of you won’t have any interactions for the time being. Even if you want to use Madam Li to get rid of her, you need a chance to get her to take the initiative to help you.

“Before you find this opportunity, Ye Ying, you can only wait. Remember, Ye Jian isn’t someone you can easily scheme against. Her ability far exceeds yours. This is an indisputable fact. You’ve already seen it yourself, so I shouldn’t have to remind you of this.

“Also, I’ll keep an eye on Ye Jian. You don’t have to be distracted. Work hard in the army. Don’t disappoint Madam Li.”

As a father, Ye Zhifan was undoubtedly qualified. He taught and nurtured Ye Ying with all his heart. He did not value boys over girls and only hoped that his daughter could achieve something.

Now that he had obtained the hard-earned ‘enlistment notice’, he was worried that his daughter would be too impatient and lose her chance again.

His smile had already disappeared. As he spoke, his expression was exceptionally serious. His tone was cold and icy. “Don’t look for trouble with Ye Jian so easily. Don’t think that you can hold your head high in front of Ye Jian just because you got the notice. You must remember…” Ye Zhifan’s words became slower and slower. In the end, he said the last sentence word by word, “…how you got the enlistment notice in the first place!”

Ye Ying’s heart was pounding.

Not only did she hold her head high in front of Ye Jian, but her mother even… mentioned Staff Officer Du in front of her.

Ye Zhifan saw that his daughter was a little flustered. The past made his heart sink. He raised his voice and shouted, “Did you two do something stupid behind my back again?”

“No, no!” Ye Ying, who was shocked by the question, denied it. She tried her best to suppress the panic in her heart and put the notice in the drawer. When she looked up again, she forced a smile and said calmly, “No, no, we didn’t.

“I know that it wasn’t easy for me to get the chance to join the army, so how could I have spread the news? Even those friends who are close to me don’t know about it.

“Look, I haven’t gone out to play during this period of time. After I handed in my medical report, I was at home. Mom even wanted to go out to play but I refused. It’s because I know that I can’t announce my enlistment.

“Mom went out with her good friends today. I even specially told her not to mention that I’ll be joining the army. I’m already so cautious, so how could I spread the news?”

She said a bunch of things in a panic. Ye Zhifan was not completely at ease. However, when he thought about how the mother and daughter had not gone out much, he felt slightly relieved.

“It’s good that you’re aware. The military uniform will be here in a few days. When you receive it, immediately head to the capital city. I’ll only be at ease after I send you to the army.”

Ye Zhifan was not afraid of anything else. He was just afraid that the mother and daughter would run out to look for Ye Jian!

Now, he was very afraid of Ye Jian. He was afraid that Ye Jian would change her mind again.

However, something unexpected happened.

Hou Zi handed a video of Ye Ying’s extravagant life in a French nightclub to Ye Jian.
