“No.”

The love between Ye Linlang and Xie Xuning was so pure and sincere.

Ye Linlang instantly understood that Xie Xuning was trying to protect Ye Tianxin.

She said, “You’re always pampering her like this.”

“This is my daughter. If I don’t pamper her, who will? Tianxin, don’t be afraid. Whatever you want to do, go ahead. Even if the sky comes crashing down, I’ll prop it up for you.”

“And that’s what will make her more and more reckless.”

Ye Linlang sighed.

It seemed that their roles in the family have been swapped.

Other families usually had a strict father and a kind mother. When it came to their family, she became the strict one, while Xie Xuning became the kind and gentle person.

“Linlang, Ye Tianxin had done a great job. Oh right, I have something to tell Tianxin.”

Ye Linlang waved her hand.

Ye Tianxin followed Xie Xuning into the study room.

Inside the study room, Xie Xuning took out a formal letter of request and passed it to Ye Tianxin.

“Tianxin, this letter of request is handed in personally by Qie Yiyan. He still wants the same thing as he did back then. He wants you to join the special operations team.”

The letter that Xie Xuning was holding was written personality but Qie Yiyan.

He genuinely hoped that Ye Tianxin could join the special operations team.

Back then, when he was choosing the team members, he picked Ye Tianxin as the captain of the team.

This time, Ye Tianxin was indeed the core member of the team for this operation.

“Dad, you know it. My dream is to become a diplomat, not a soldier.”

Ye Tianxin had experienced war personally. In the desert, RPG shells exploded right next to her. She had seen countless people lose their families and homes.

It’s not that she didn’t like soldiers.

She just didn’t want to compromise and give up on her dreams for something else.

“Tianxin, I have read the report they wrote regarding the operation in Watertown. When dealing with issues, you are very calm and composed and have a good sense of the broader situation. You indeed have great potential in this. To be honest, if you aren’t my daughter, I would try to convince you to be a soldier as well. However, you are my daughter, and I am your father. I don’t have many other demands of you. There’s only one thing that I want you to do, and that is to be happy. Regardless of whether you’d choose to be a soldier or a diplomat, I will support you.”

Ye Tianxin’s eye sockets turned slightly red.

She was extremely lucky to be able to relive her life, have parents that love her so much, and have a grandmother who cared for her with all her heart.

She also had Li Qingcang, who pampered her with everything that he had.

“Dad, I saw Qingcang at Watertown as well. Actually, Qingcang was the one who found that stronghold first.”

Ye Tianxin had never thought about taking all of Li Qingcang’s credit for herself.

Even if right now, no one else knew about this, she still wanted Xie Xuning to know this.

Li Qingcang didn’t have anything handed to him.

“I know. You’ve only been in Watertown for such a short time, there’s no way for you to find out the truth behind all of this.”

This was the thing that Xie Xuning was most worried about. He knew full well that from the death of Professor Xu to the death of Mr. and Mrs. Mai in the City of Mo, and then the Watertown incident, there was an invisible string connecting all of these cases. That string is also connected to the core of the Empire.

He knew better than anyone else that Li Qingcang was an extremely cautious person.

This whole issue involved way too many things, and Li Qingcang didn’t have 100 percent confidence that he would be able to obtain sufficient evidence.

Otherwise, he wouldn’t fake his own death like this.

Even Xie Xuning and Xie Hexin didn’t find anything suspicious about the scene of the explosion.

That meant that there was no way the person whom Li Qingcang wanted to investigate would expect him to survive in that explosion.
