Reborn at Boot Camp: General, Don’t Mess Around! Chapter 2101

Chapter 2101: Winning Over

Realizing that the problem would not end with the illegal Chinese businessman being caught, the major general glanced at Xia Jinyuan and asked the military doctor, “Can his injuries be treated a few hours later?”

“There’s no sign of fever. He can be treated a few hours later.” The military doctor packed up the medical supplies he’d taken out and saluted.

It was already 8:30 in the evening. The military office building was brightly lit and heavily guarded outside. The uniformed soldiers inside were working at their desks, quietly minding their own business.

Staff Officer Du came out of the General Staff Office building and took a car to w.a.n.g Fu Hotel. After a whole day of meetings, he was a little tired. He sat in the back and closed his eyes to rest.

Director Ye from the Southern Province had brought his daughter to report to the capital city’s political regiment. In the end, his wife insisted that he go over to meet with Director Ye.

He had said what he needed to say, and he had helped out with what was necessary. Why did he still need to meet the other party?

Staff Officer Du, who did not want to come, waited for the waiter to push open the door of the private room. His face was filled with a happy smile as he strode over and laughed. “I’m sorry, I’m sorry. The general staff called for an emergency meeting, so I had to keep Director Ye waiting.”

Ye Zhifan didn’t dare to accept these words. He had been paying attention to the commotion at the door and spotted a military green s.h.i.+rt. Before Staff Officer Du walked over, he had already stood up to welcome him.

“No, I’m the one who’s disrupting your schedule. Please forgive me.” As he spoke, he reminded Ye Ying to get up quickly.

Madam Li liked the father and daughter’s sense of awareness. One had to be self-aware. Otherwise, one would seem clumsy.

…

“Okay, okay, stop exchanging pleasantries now. Old Du, get the waiter to serve the dishes. Director Ye saw that you hadn’t come and insisted on waiting. I couldn’t dissuade him, so I had to order a few desserts to fill Ye Ying’s stomach first.”

Madam Li, who was wearing a cheongsam with vivid peony flowers embroidered on the collar, smiled and asked the two of them to sit down. She personally poured a cup of nouris.h.i.+ng tea for her husband, who was sitting at the side. Then, she said elegantly, “Our two children haven’t arrived yet. The new year has just pa.s.sed. I really don’t know what they’re busy with. I don’t even have anyone to accompany me when I want to find someone to eat with.

“Ye Ying is still the best. She’s obedient and sensible. She knows that I want to talk and chat. Look, before you came, it was this child who accompanied me to relieve my boredom.”

Hearing this, Staff Officer Du laughed even louder. He looked at the young lady sitting beside his wife and nodded in approval. “She’s indeed obedient. Director Ye, you’ve taught her well. If it were Jiayi, tsk, tsk. She would have only sat for ten minutes at most.”

Ye Ying tried her best to suppress the smile on her face. She lowered her head shyly as if she was overwhelmed by the praise. Her voice was a little soft, but she didn’t sound petty. “You’re flattering me. Madam is knowledgeable. It’s my blessing to be able to accompany her.”

“You’re simply adorable! If Jiayi was half as obedient as you, half of my hair wouldn’t be white.” Madam Li’s smile warmed up. She was naturally more satisfied with Ye Ying.

Someone pushed the door open and said unhappily, “Mom, can you lower your voice a little when you’re talking behind my back? I was outside and could hear you through the thick door.”

The person who spoke was Du Jiayi. She came in wearing a proper military uniform. There was a look of arrogance between her eyebrows that Ye Ying envied. It was the arrogance of someone who was quite confident.
