2836 Chapter 2836
In the dead of the night, Madam Xiao looked at Madam Li, who had specially stayed in the hospital to accompany her. The corners of her lips curled up slightly.
No one could understand her relationship with Chenglan. They were wary of each other and helped each other. She would sincerely help her solve some problems in her life. Similarly, Chenglan would sincerely help her as well.
Other people might not understand this kind of interaction, but she did.
After returning to the Xia family’s old residence, Commander Xia hung up the phone and chatted with Xia Jinyuan in the front yard. The father and son didn’t care about Madam Xiao and Madam Li’s relationship. They were only concerned about… why Staff Officer Du was investigating Xia Jinyuan.
“Since he’s secretly investigating, let him investigate. Your information is the highest-ranking military secret of our army. If it’s easily found by a mere staff officer, there’ll be no need to keep it a secret.
“We can put aside his matter for the time being. As for Li Chuhai… we need to pay attention to him.”
Xia Jinyuan didn’t know this person, so he didn’t know his name previously. However, he knew now.
“If he didn’t have any evil thoughts back then, even if he knew that you were investigating him, there was no need for him to leave the military immediately. When he found out that you were investigating him, he retired because of his health through Old Master Li. In less than three months, he was arranged to go overseas. Leaving in such a hurry confirms that there’s indeed something wrong with him.
“In that case, the investigation is completely in line with the rules. Even if he has complaints in his heart, he can only blame himself for being dirty.”
When Commander Xia knew that Ye Jian had come to the old residence with her grandfather, he took some time out of his busy schedule to go back to the old residence. After listening to what had happened during the day and Xia Jinyuan mentioning the name ‘Li Chuhai’, Commander Xia’s expression changed slightly
As he listened to Xia Jinyuan, Commander Xia remained silent. He thought about the past for a long time, and he could still remember it.
He really didn’t expect Li Chuhai to have the guts to come back. Back then, Old Master Li spent a lot of effort chasing him overseas. He didn’t expect him to come back after more than 20 years.
Xia Jinyuan could already see the hidden sharpness in Commander Xia’s silence. This sharpness came from the name ‘Li Chuhai’.
“Dad, what are you thinking about? Could it be that there’s something else about Li Chuhai?” Xia Jinyuan had already sensed something amiss. His eyes moved slightly, and he smiled faintly. “Or is it inconvenient for you to say it, and it’s inconvenient for me to know?”
“Trying to get information out of me?” Commander Xia glanced at him. “You… can’t get involved with his matters. Don’t even think about trying to get information out of me.”
In that case… there was really a huge problem. Xia Jinyuan poured tea into his empty teacup and smiled. “Since you’ve spoken, I naturally won’t get involved. I can tell that you have some reservations about Li Chuhai, which gives me an idea.”
The sound of water was soft as the tea was poured in. Commander Xia looked at the empty teacup and refilled it. His expression was a little serious and cold.
Li Chuhai was the youngest senior colonel in the army back then. Because of Old Master Li, his future was definitely smooth.
But because of a major event that shocked the assembly hall that year, the number of people involved caused the military department at that time to have problems with its normal operation.
