Ye Jian was also a protective person; she didn’t dislike what Mrs. Xiao said too much, they were spouses after all, even if they were now divorced, but the matters between a couple wasn’t something that can be criticized so simply by outsiders.
Among matters between spouses, the men would say they were right. In contrast, the women would say they were right since they couldn’t stay together, it’s also a good idea for them to divorce as soon as possible, to prevent them from dragging it out and turning each other into nemesis, resulting in their children being involved in the tragedy.
The reason why she was avoiding the matter between Supreme Commander Xia and Mrs. Xiao was that she felt that what goes on between them should be solved between them, and there was no need for outsiders to meddle in them.
But this Madam was having her fun in meddling, her words might sound nice, but the meaning behind them, heh… driving a wedge between them maliciously.
There’s a common saying where good men don’t fight women; with Supreme Commander Xia’s status today, he had more reason to avoid fighting. Yet, that Madam opened her mouth and sentenced the Supreme Commander with a crime, isn’t that just bullying the Supreme Commander for being a man, and because of his status, it wasn’t convenient for him to argue with her?
It’s a pity her current identity wasn’t convenient. Otherwise, she would definitely have a good debate with this Madam!
She couldn’t go and debate, but Captain Xia could!
His identity as a son’ could face those two Madams without a worry; all he needed to remember was he was acting as a son,’ it was more than enough for him to stand forwards and say some words of justice for his father.
“I sense that this Madam has no goodwill; she hadn’t said anything nice till now, Captain Xia; you need to go over and help the Supreme Commander. You guys can solve your own family matters behind closed doors, so those unrelated passersby have no need to meddle in.”
Still worried that Xia Jinyuan didn’t get what she was trying to convey, Ye Jian tried to say things as frank as she could, “The Supreme Commander can’t argue with her, but you absolutely can.” Ye Jian whispered and gave the man by her side a push, “Hurry, don’t let the Supreme Commander turn into a voiceless mute.”
“If my father knew his daughter-in-law was that protective of him, he’ll be delighted again.” Her worried expression because of his family was extremely adorable, her dainty face tensed up, afraid that the old man would be at a disadvantage, so she was urgently pushing him over to help, Xia Jinyuan held her face and gave her forehead a hard smooch, he chuckled: “The old man wouldn’t suffer so easily, there’s another reason why he isn’t anxious to go inside. Come, I’ll walk you to the car first.”
Ye Jian was still worried and wanted to insist on leaving by herself, but she remembered that Xia Jinyuan had always been a stubborn person; nodding her head, she quickened her pace towards the outside.
Although there were flames of anger on him, but it still wasn’t the furious type; she might have been a little too nervous.
With Captain Xia’s abilities, it was unlikely for him and the Supreme Commander to suffer a loss.
Ye Jian understood Xia Jinyuan, in front of Mrs. Xiao, he had never suffered one loss, after returning, he noticed Chief of Staff Du was also standing outside and was enjoying the breeze, his own old man stood upright with both hands behind his back, the steadfast aura and cold pride around him had forcefully made Chief of Staff Du to appear shorter than him.
“Old Xia ah, you’ve gone senile, Shu Man is your son’s mother; how can you, the father stop her? Sometimes it’s also important to give way, don’t always bring your workstyle home, turning your home into an office, wouldn’t that be too boring.”
“It’s not like you’d lose face for giving them the way; Shu Man’s not an outsider; even if you give way to her, it is within sentiment and reason, no?”
“Chief of Staff Du, greetings.” From the light, Xia Jinyuan, with his upright figure strode over, he greeted elegantly and politely, “Good evening, both Madams.”
After hearing quite an imposing young man’s voice from behind him, Chief of Staff Du, who was also wearing casual clothes, couldn’t help but turn around, he then saw a tall young man, and from his upright stature, it was evident he was a soldier, walking towards him.
