Chapter 379 - 379 368 365 Elder Pang and Ye Chen

379: Chapter 368 Chapter 365: Elder Pang and Ye Chen 379: Chapter 368 Chapter 365: Elder Pang and Ye Chen Elder Pang could not help but laugh every time he talked about that incident.

After all, nobody was as audacious as Ye Chen.

The story itself is quite simple, but hearing it leaves one unable to suppress a chuckle.

After a routine training session, while the soldiers were free to do as they pleased, Ye Chen, rather boldly, crawled out of the training field and walked toward the main gate.

Soldiers were not allowed to leave the training grounds, let alone the military district.

Hence, Ye Chen could only wander around the gate.

At that moment, he spotted an old man watering plants at the gate.

“Old man, are you watering the plants?” Ye Chen approached, starting to make friendly conversation with a smile.

“Yes, are you serving here?” the old man asked cheerfully.

“Yes!” Ye Chen scratched his head, momentarily unsure of what to say next, but the old man asked, “What are you doing out here instead of training properly, young man?”

“It’s free time in the afternoon, so I snuck out to look around!” Ye Chen saw that the old man seemed easy to talk to and chuckled, “Old man, could you buy me a pack of Red Double Happiness cigarettes?

How about it?”

“Uh… you kid, the store is just fifty meters ahead, why don’t you go yourself?” the old man glared at Ye Chen.

“There are rules in the military district; without orders and a pass, soldiers are not allowed to leave!” Ye Chen immediately stood up straight.

“Oh, a bit of military spirit, huh!” the old man couldn’t help but take another look at Ye Chen and then laughed, “Doesn’t your military discipline prohibit smoking?”

“That’s no big deal, how can a man not smoke?!” Ye Chen grinned.

“Alright, I’ll go buy them for you!” the old man nodded.

Then, the old man put down the watering can and turned to leave.

Ye Chen immediately jumped up and shouted, “Old man, you haven’t taken any money!”

“This pack is on me!” the old man called back with a smile.

Afterward, to Ye Chen’s surprise, the old man brought him a pack of Zhonghua.

Patting himself down, Ye Chen found he didn’t have enough to afford them, and he thanked the old man profusely.

After returning to the unit that night, the company commander immediately came down to address them.

The entire company assembled, and the commander scolded, “Shit, you little bugger, how dare you make our military district commander buy you cigarettes?!

Shit, do you guys not want to get along anymore…”

After that incident, Ye Chen was dumbfounded as he then realized that the old man who watered the plants at the gate each day was the commander of the military district.

And it was that very incident that left a lasting impression of Ye Chen on Elder Pang.

That little missile kid sure remembered military discipline well, but always picked the strangest parts to recall.

In Zhongnanhai, several elders sighed.

“What a pity, Ye was the successor I had chosen back in the day.

I can’t believe he is gone just like that!” Elder Pang said, tears clouding his eyes.

“Elder Pang, he is gone now, let’s leave it,” a man in a Zhongshan suit consoled, “Now, Ye’s son has also grown up, right?

And he is a fine young lad.

If possible, why not let him come back to the country?”

“Come back to what country?

They are trying to kill him now!” Elder Pang suddenly surged with energy, startling the other four elders present.

“Who dares?!” the grey-haired elder quickly asked.

“They are running around Beijing trying to remove the last of the Ye family!” Elder Pang said, anger in his eyes, “You tell me, what should be done?”

“This…” Everyone fell silent.

As high-ranking officials of China, they could not directly interfere with local government affairs.

Of course, a slight hint here and there to certain people could be a powerful stimulant.

The bureaucratic scene in China was unlike that in other countries.

When someone higher up spoke in veiled terms, those below could definitely interpret the underlying meaning without leaving any handle to catch.

“Elder Pang, let me handle it,” the man in the Zhongshan suit looked mildly at Elder Pang and then said, “Let’s leave it to the Armed Police Department.

Since it’s within the same department, commands are less likely to leak out.”

“Alright!” Elder Pang nodded.

Whatever happened, they had to protect Ye Chen.

Whether it was for Ye Hai or the Ye family.

In any case, he was determined to make a stand this time.

Little did Ye Chen know that the old man he had casually met at the military district gate, who was actually the commander of the Nanjing Military District, had protected him in a move in Beijing.

“Alright, let’s not talk about that anymore.

Let’s talk about the current situation instead!” The elder with grey hair laughed heartily.

Subsequently, everyone nodded in agreement.

…

Soon, a secret message came from Central, directly dialed into the office of the chief commander of China’s Armed Police through an internal line.

As soon as the Armed Police headquarters received the call, they took immediate action.

The Commander of the Armed Police, upon seeing that the secret order was sent by No.

1 Chief, did not dare to delay and decided to personally execute the order.

Liu Jiangqiu, in Beijing, was exceedingly generous financially.

He had bribed several key officials from various departments, including a deputy dean of the Beijing Procuratorate.

After receiving a hefty sum from Liu Jiangqiu, the deputy dean finally decided to make a move for him.

Right after, the deputy dean of the Procuratorate immediately phoned the Provincial Procuratorate of Z Province.

The call from Beijing, made the officials of the Z Province Procuratorate scared witless, initially thinking they were going to be held accountable.

However, upon hearing that the caller was actually issuing orders, sighs of relief filled the office.

If their superiors had caught them red-handed, it would have been over for them.

Fortunately, the call was just to give orders.

“Joking aside, which officials nowadays are clean?

Each one has some dirt on them.

Although they wear trousers, one can still smell the stench coming from within.”

“Don’t worry, Dean Zheng.

We’ll handle it immediately!” The officials from the Provincial Committee respectfully responded.

After hanging up the phone, these guys immediately passed the problem downstream.

Orders from higher-ups always need someone to execute them, and such tasks should not be left to us, right?

Soon after, a series of calls were made to the Jianghuai City Procuratorate office.

The problem was tossed down the hierarchy.

Although the Jianghuai City Procuratorate was controlled by Jiang Zhonggen, they had no choice but to comply with the orders from above.

The Secretary of the Jianghuai City Procuratorate, a confidant of Jiang Zhonggen, immediately phoned Jiang Zhonggen upon receiving the call.

“The Provincial Committee is intervening in this matter?” Jiang Zhonggen was startled.

“Yes!” the Secretary of the Procuratorate immediately nodded and said, “It seems Liu Jiangqiu has escalated the matter!”

“Hehe, the Provincial Committee doesn’t have that much clout; it must be a message from Beijing!” Jiang Zhonggen sighed and said, “Ye Chen, Ye Chen, when will you reveal your trump card?

Why haven’t you shown your hand yet?”

Jiang Zhonggen was puzzled; since Ye Chen had voluntarily let himself be captured by the Armed Police, it must be because he had some powerful backing.

In Jiang Zhonggen’s view, Ye Chen was probably waiting to turn the tables at the most critical moment.

However, it had been two days, and there was still no reaction from Ye Chen’s side.

This left Jiang Zhonggen feeling helpless.

Jiang Zhonggen sighed, “Ye Chen, my power is limited.

I can’t protect you any longer, don’t blame me!”

…

At the entrance of the Guangzhou Military Region, a slender lady paced back and forth with a small suitcase.

At the entrance, two soldiers armed with Type 56 rifles stood rigidly, occasionally glancing at the lady; it was hard not to, as she was stunningly beautiful and it was tough not to pounce on her, but as soldiers, they were supposed to have strong willpower, and they stood unyieldingly, knowing that this was a test of their resolves.

At this moment, a soldier from the duty room briskly came over, and very politely asked the woman, “Miss, is there something I can help you with?”

“I… I’m here to see someone!” The lady awkwardly responded.

She was none other than Ms.

Yan from Jianghuai City.

Ms.

Yan had traveled tirelessly, catching a one-hour flight to Guangzhou, and then taking a taxi from Baiyun Airport all the way here.

Despite being familiar with the place, it still felt like a challenging journey.

“Oh?

Who are you looking for?

Can you mention the unit?” The soldier was startled.

“I…” Ms.

Yan looked at him and then said, “I’m here to see your Deputy Commander Cai Jian Country.”

“Ah?!” The soldier widened his eyes, taken aback.

Shit, such a beautiful, iconic lady coming to see the Deputy Commander, could it be that she was a mistress or something that the Deputy Commander kept outside, and now suddenly she was coming to make trouble at the military area?

Thinking this, the soldier immediately shook his head and said, “I’m sorry, but we don’t allow women to enter here!”

Ms.

Yan, knowing what the soldier was thinking, simply smiled and said, “Don’t worry, I’m not here to cause trouble; I’m here looking for my father-in-law.

I am Cai Guoqing’s wife!”

Upon hearing this, the soldier instantly felt relieved.

However, to be on the safe side, he decided to still make a prudent call to Commander Cai.

He promptly said to Ms.

Yan, “In that case, please wait a moment while I make a call to Deputy Commander Cai!”

“Okay!” Ms.

Yan nodded.
