In other words, the current Old Madam Li had ascended the throne as a mistress in the past!

Could this be one of the reasons why her cousin’s relationship with the Li family was so ordinary?

In that case, she didn’t have to worry anymore!

After knowing the complicated relationship of the Li family, Ye Jian couldn’t help but purse her lips and smile.

Previously, when Commander Xia mentioned to her that Li Chuhai might be the mastermind, her first reaction was to not tell her father for the time being and not let her cousin know.

Now, she didn’t have any worries. It didn’t matter if her cousin knew. It didn’t matter if her father knew either. Anyway, this person wasn’t close to her cousin.

Xia Jinyuan saw that her frown had disappeared. He tore the paper and placed it in his pocket. Then, he held her hand again and said helplessly, “Sometimes, don’t think about things alone. It’s tiring to think too much.

“Are you relieved now?”

“Don’t worry, don’t worry!” Ye Jian nodded and looked around. Then, she laid her head on Xia Jinyuan’s broad shoulder. “We can sleep for a while now.”

She wasn’t wearing a military uniform and wasn’t afraid of being recognized. She could date openly.

Xia Jinyuan even adjusted his sitting position so that she could rest more comfortably. He lowered his eyes and saw the corners of her lips curling up into a gentle smile. He couldn’t help but smile. He rubbed his chin against her head and said gently, “Sleep. We’ll reach the capital city in an hour or so.”

There was already a huge commotion in the capital city, especially the Li and Du families. The families didn’t close their eyes even for a moment from last night to today. It was winter, but Madam Li was so anxious that blisters appeared at the corners of her mouth.

She couldn’t make phone calls. Her personal freedom was restricted. Even her daughter, Du Jiayi, couldn’t go out. She could only stay at home.

Originally… the mother and daughter were going to the Qin family’s home!

Now, they couldn’t even leave their house!

Du Jiayi, who was sitting on the sofa, had a tense expression on her pretty face. She had been sitting still for a few hours. Madam Li picked up the landline phone from time to time before slamming it down. Du Jiayi’s face was dark as she said, “Mom, stop calling. I’ve already said that it won’t be possible!

“If you have the time to make a call, you might as well think about where Uncle could’ve gone! The main thing now is to find Uncle and put everything else aside!”

She shouldn’t even think about going to the Qin family’s home!

Her uncle must have done something big this time. If not, the military unit wouldn’t be guarding the house.

“I have to call your father and ask him. Since something happened to your uncle, why isn’t your father doing anything about it? I have to ask your father!”

Madam Li was worried about her brother. She wasn’t too worried about anything else.

“Your uncle just came back to the country. What sort of things can he do? Even if he wants to commit murder and arson, there should be proof! There’s no proof at all. Why are our movements restricted?

“If I don’t figure out what happened, I’ll feel uneasy. I have to figure it out!”

Du Jiayi’s face darkened when she heard that. “Mom, we can’t figure out what happened to Uncle now. We have to find him first! Don’t get the main point wrong.

“Also, why hasn’t Dad come back yet? Why hasn’t Brother and his family come back after visiting Sister-in-law’s house for the new year? Even Little Brother hasn’t come back.

“Mom, if Uncle isn’t found, Dad, Brother, and Little Brother won’t be able to come back. Who should you be most worried about right now?”
