Ye Jian knew that the ingredients in the tonic meant to aid sleep had worked. Before the commander-in-chief got into the car, he told her that he had gone to see a doctor to get a tonic that contained ingredients that aided in sleep.

This was good. It would give him a good nights sleep.

Ye Jian, who was not sleepy, picked up a military book and flipped through it slowly. From time to time, she would look up to see if there was still liquid in the IV drip bag. She listened to the time ticking by and enjoyed their time together.

Li Jinnian came over and saw a scene that even he couldnt bear to disturb. He stayed for a while and took out an old photo from his pocket to take a look. A strange glint flashed across his cold eyes as he raised his hand and knocked on the closed ward door.

Ye Jian was a little surprised to see him. They had just met yesterday. Besides, with Li Jinnians busy schedule, he didnt have much time to run to the hospital.

Ye Jian moved Xia Jinyuans long arm away from her waist and got off the bed quietly.

Li Jinnian pointed outside and gestured for her to come out and talk.

Ye Jian closed the door and smiled naturally. Are you on annual leave? Youre so free.

No, Im not. I came here for a meeting. Im going to be promoted like him. Li Jinnians cold eyes had an unusual smile. His gaze looked very gentle and seemed to contain a deeper meaning. Youll be there tomorrow, right?

He had specially come to look for her. Even if he was not free, he had to make time.

Hearing this, Ye Jians smile deepened. Captain Xia told me that you two were from the same batch. You even partic.i.p.ated in training together. Later, you went to the navy and he went to the army. I didnt expect you to be promoted together. You two are very fated.

I have a deeper affinity with you. Following her words, a deep smile appeared on Li Jinnians cold and handsome face. His gaze locked onto the face that he found familiar at first glance. He slowly said, Apart from fighting side by side, Ye Jian, we have a deeper affinity.

A deeper affinity?

Ye Jian didnt understand. What do you mean by that?

Look at this photo. His cold, handsome face softened a little as he took the faded photograph from his pocket. You must know her, and you know her well, dont you?

It wasnt a question, it was a statement.

Ye Jian, who took the photo, was stunned. Of course, she knew the woman in the photo who was wearing a military uniform. This was her mother who had sacrificed herself for the military when she was very young.

Why was her mothers photo in Li Jinnians hands? Why was there such a photo?

Li Jinnian handed the photo over and stared at Ye Jian, afraid that he would miss any expression on her face. When he saw the shock on her face when she saw the photo, Li Jinnian became agitated.

He was usually a steady, calm man. No matter how big an incident was, it wouldnt stir up his heart.

However, this matter was causing waves in his heart. Even his voice was not as cold and calm as usual. There was a slight fluctuation in it. You look very similar to the woman in the photo. From the first time I saw you, I always had an indescribable sense of familiarity with you as if I had seen you somewhere before, but I didnt have a deep impression of you. After finding this photo, I knew where I had seen you before. It turns out that the woman in the photo is your mother.

Li Jinnian was already controlling his emotions very well and only revealed a little.

He didnt tell the truth all at once. Instead, as he spoke, he observed Ye Jians expression and slowly told her the truth.
