Chapter 1356: Hateful
“I heard that he has already been promoted to the position of the Director of the Construction Bureau. It looks like his personal ability is not bad.” Commander-in-Chief Xia’s focus was only on Ye Zhifan. As for his daughter with heart disease and a tainted record, it was impossible for her to enter the capital city’s political regiment.
However, it was not impossible.
Commander Liu’s expression was a little dark as he replied in a low voice, “It’s not bad indeed. Also, he has outstanding political achievements. He’s cautious and doesn’t have the corrupt way of doing things in the bureaucracy.” It was just that the speed at which he rose was a little astonishing. Especially in the past five years, the speed at which he rose was unbelievably fast.
“Cautious and doesn’t have the corrupt way of doing things in the bureaucracy?” Commander-in-Chief Xia raised his voice slightly. There was a hint of abnormality in it. “Jingguo, I’m afraid you’re only looking at the surface.”
Jingguo, Commander Liu’s name.
“Based on the speed of his promotion, it’s true that he’s cautious. He didn’t leave behind any evidence that can be criticized. However, his way of doing things is questionable. If he was a righteous person, he wouldn’t have any devious thoughts.”
During the memorial service, he used his identity as the representative of the entire village of Shuikou Village to pass the guards and used the introduction from the mayor of Fujun Town to come to him… From this, it could be seen that this person was extremely cautious that he didn’t invite criticism. He tossed the criticism on other people.
At that time, the town mayor of Fujun Town said, “Director Ye is too cautious. He is clearly representing the entire village to attend the memorial service of the old squad leader but he didn’t go up to give his eulogy. Lieutenant general, if I didn’t stop him, Director Ye would have left with his daughter.”
The private plane landed in Fujun Town. As the town mayor, he needed to appear in person and also make some arrangements. Hence, the town mayor of Fujun Town got to talk to Commander-in-Chief Xia.
As for how the mayor of Fujun Town found out that a senior government official was at the memorial service and that Ye Zhifan was preparing to leave with his daughter… Only Ye Zhifan knew about this series of coincidences.
Ye Zhifan spoke up for himself cleverly. “Sorry to disturb you. I wanted to leave earlier but the town mayor stopped me.” He even smiled bitterly after he finished speaking.
If he didn’t know Ye Jian’s family background, Commander-in-Chief Xia would have thought that it was the rashness of the town mayor of Fujun Town and not Ye Zhifan.
He let other people be the bad guys and left the image of a good person for himself… He was too cautious.
Commander Liu didn’t have much contact with Ye Zhifan. The few times they met was because of Ye Jian. Thinking about Ye Jian’s relationship with Xia Jinyuan and the fact that she was the daughter-in-law that the Commander-in-Chief had chosen, Commander Liu pondered for a moment and said, “Ye Zhifan is not a simple person. His daughter has always been targeting Ye Jian. She always made things difficult for Ye Jian in school.”
“We have communicated with Ye Zhifan but the result is the same. Commander-in-Chief, forgive me for being blunt but if his daughter really enters the military, it will be disadvantageous to Ye Jian. Do you want the military or the local forces to take note of her? Like father, like daughter.”
The main point was the last sentence, “Like father, like daughter.” The father knew how to find ways to secure personal gains, his daughter would definitely learn from him.
“I will take note of it.” Commander-in-Chief Xia nodded. His gaze landed on the tomb of the old squad leader that had gone to eternal sleep. He said, “Thank you all for taking care of the old squad leader and Ye Jian all this time. In the future, let Xia Jinyuan take care of Ye Jian. When you guys are free, come and toast the old squad leader often and tell him that Ye Jian is fine.”
