Videotape… Videotape …

Ye Ying’s eyes widened in shock. The videotape… No… No, they couldn’t watch it. They couldn’t watch it. How could it be… She had destroyed the videotape. Why was there still a videotape?

‘No, it must not be…’

“This videotape was sent to the front desk of my company today, and I just found out about it.” At that moment, Madam Li appeared in the conference room. She was wearing a coat and looked out of place in the entire conference room. However, her aura was strong. She sat down calmly and said, “Everyone, this matter has nothing to do with Old Du. I was the one who didn’t know her well enough, and I didn’t get Old Du to investigate carefully. I simply took the initiative to recommend her to the capital.

“Ye Ying is indeed talented and proficient in zither, chess, calligraphy, and painting. Ever since I met her, I knew that she wanted to become a military arts soldier. Coincidentally…”

Madam Li smiled bitterly and told them how she liked Ye Ying and how she let her enter the capital city’s political regiment. “… It’s my fault. I embarrassed the army in the end.

“I know she has to be dealt with. I have to tell the truth despite my already old age. If you don’t believe me, you can watch the videotape now. You’ll know that nothing I’ve said is false.

“It was my daughter’s birthday yesterday. I really liked Ye Ying and specially brought her around to get to know my friends. I praised her for being sensible and following the rules. Who knew that I would be humiliated by her today? It’s all my fault for making things difficult for everyone and embarrassing the army.”

Madam stood up and bowed to apologize. She took all the responsibility for the matter. Instead of making things difficult for her husband and leaving Xia Xinhui to handle it in the end, she might as well make things difficult for herself.

Madam Li, who had always been bold, saw that her daughter couldn’t enter the conference room and immediately looked for Commander Xia. She told him about the videotape and completely destroyed Ye Ying’s last hope.

All claims needed to be supported by evidence. Ye Ying, who felt like she had fallen into an ice cellar, looked at the guard pushing the videotape into the machine. After the image flickered… Ye Ying was so shocked that her eyes kept rolling back.

Her mental endurance had reached its limit.

“… Ye Ying’s actions have violated the relevant provisions of our country’s Military Service Law and the Southern Province’s Military Conscription Act. She’s to be punished on the spot and will withdraw from the troops. She’ll also be fined 100,000 yuan.

“At the same time, she’ll be sent back to the Southern Province where she’ll be handed over to the Ministry of Public Security. The case of Ye Ying and the local hooligans taking action against Ye Jian will be investigated.

“Within 10 years of execution, Ye Ying shall not be listed as a state civil servant, enter state-owned or public institutions, and shall not go through the formalities for going abroad or entering higher education.”

Ye Ying didn’t faint. She was too emotional and was pressed down by the two guards on her seat. She listened to the instructor of the capital city’s political regiment read the execution letter on the spot.

Fired and handed over to the Ministry of Public Security… Ye Ying screamed as she struggled harder. “No, I’m not leaving the army. I don’t want to go back to the Southern Province. Dad, save me. Dad, come and save me.

“I don’t want to go back to Southern Province. I don’t want to be discharged… I was wrong, Chief. I was wrong. I won’t do it again. I won’t do it again. I was really wrong. Please don’t let me be discharged.”

No one paid any attention. Staff Officer Du was the first to leave the conference room with a dark expression. This time, he had been completely humiliated by a mere military arts soldier!

“Don’t go, don’t! Ye Jian, can you stop the chief? I’m begging you. I’m sorry. I’m really wrong. Please save me. I don’t want to be discharged from the military. I don’t want to go to the Ministry of Public Security. I don’t want to go to jail.

“Please, Ye Jian, I’m begging you.”

In this life, Ye Jian managed to hear Ye Ying’s pleas. In this life, she actually heard Ye Ying’s pleas!
