"I'm sorry to have made you worry. I've always lived in Shuikou Village and never left. When did you come to our village? "
"Three years after your mother's death, some of us retired at the end of the year. We wrote a letter to the town in September and received a reply in early October. At the end of December, one of our retired comrades specially came over before returning home. Only then did we completely believe that you really 'died' in an accident."
Chief Cai let out a long sigh. "Now, I don't understand what's going on. You were clearly still alive, so why did we receive a reply saying that you were in an accident? Why did our comrades also say that you were in an accident?"
She calculated the time. At that time, she was being bullied badly. As a village official, Ye Zhifan had close ties with the Fujun Town government. It was normal for him to receive a letter and reply in such a way.
The strange thing was, why did her mother's comrades say the same thing?
"If the letter you wrote fell into Ye Zhifan's hands, it would be normal for him to reply that I fell into the water and died. To be honest, sometimes I think it's a miracle that I was able to survive safely. "
Ye Chien said half-jokingly and half-seriously. But as soon as he said this, Chief Cai's face suddenly darkened. He asked in a low voice, "What's wrong? Did someone come looking for you?"
At that moment, Ye Chien's heart sank. Chief Cai's expression and what he said... Something was wrong!
She guessed right. She really guessed right.
There was something suspicious about her mother's death!
"No one came looking for you, but..." Ye Chien lowered her head as her mind raced. She wondered if she should directly ask Chief Cai for confirmation. But, could she trust him?
It was the first time they met. Should she ask about the past that might have a lot to do with it?
Director Cai also lowered his eyes, so he didn't see the contemplation on Ye Jian's face. He breathed a sigh of relief and was about to speak when Ye Jian's phone in her pocket beeped.
Xia Jinyuan was calling.
After glancing at the caller ID, Ye Chien stood up without hesitation. "Chief Cai, thank you for telling me about my mother. I still have some matters to attend to, so I won't disturb your work any further."
"There are still many things about your mother. You …" Chief Cai stood up and stared deeply at his old friend's daughter. He saw the determination in her eyes, and her gaze was even sharper than her mother's. He paused for a few seconds before saying, "If you want to know more about your mother, you can contact me at any time."
It was clear that Chief Cai had hesitated when he said this. After a moment of hesitation, his eyes were filled with determination.
Ye Chien, who had always been suspicious of her mother's sacrifice, felt her heart sink. She thought that she would definitely contact Chief Cai because he knew about her mother's situation.
"Alright, maybe one day I will really come and disturb you." Ye Chien took the phone number that Chief Cai had written on his notebook at the last minute. He glanced at it and memorized the numbers.
Ye Chien bowed slightly to Chief Cai before walking away.
The young female soldier left without looking back. Just like her mother that day, even though she knew it was dangerous and that she might not come back, she accepted the mission, packed her equipment, and left without looking back.
Ye Chien only knew that when her mother sacrificed herself and came back, the willow trees were green and the peach blossoms had withered. She did not know that when the red plum blossoms left, the world was covered in white snow and the only red plum blossoms were blooming.
