Out on the streets?

Ye Jian’s heart ached as she asked hoarsely, “Why was my father out on the streets?”

“Uncle didn’t mention it, and Grandpa didn’t say anything either. If you want to know, you can ask Uncle.” He knew everything about the Fu family, but he didn’t know the reason for this. “Actually, it’s meaningless to know. Even if you ask, it might just be another sad past.”

!!

Ye Jian pursed her lips. Her cousin was right. Her grandfather had suffered too much. Why mention those sad memories again?

After the photo album was closed, Ye Jian’s heart was so heavy that she had to drink a few cups of warm water to calm herself down.

After putting away the photo album, Li Jinnian took out a pen and letter and placed them in front of Ye Jian. Under the warm light, a faint warm smile appeared on his handsome face. “Write a letter to Uncle. Do you have a photo? Send a photo to Uncle and let him see you. He works at a missile research center in the Northwest. He hasn’t been home for four years.”

Working at the missile research center… Ye Jian had never met her father before.

“I don’t have a photo. I only have the photo that’s on my student ID. I’ll scan it and send it to Dad.” Ye Jian took out the student ID that she had to carry with her. “It’s a front-facing photo. It’s very clear.”

Li Jinnian took the student ID card and looked at her photo carefully. It was very clear and beautiful. Her gaze was cold and strong, making him feel comfortable.

This was his cousin, a bloodline relationship that would never change!

The letter and the scanned photo of the student ID were sent out the next morning. After a few transfers, it would take at least a month before it would find itself in the hands of Chief Engineer Fu Yusheng.

Ye Jian, who was sitting below the stage, focused on the dozens of officers on the stage. She knew all of them. They were all navy comrades of Storm Commando and the Xueyu unit.

“You must cherish your honor and remember your original intentions. Remember your mission and take responsibility for your actions. You must not betray the trust of the people, the military, the military commission, and the president.

“Loyalty! Always remember what your responsibilities are. Always remember that you’re soldiers protecting the country! Serve the country, be loyal to the people, and be loyal to the country!”

Commander Xia stood in front of the rostrum with a serious voice. He spoke with great military might and told all the promoted officers that rankings were the noble honor bestowed by the country to soldiers. It was necessary for them to remember their mission and responsibility as a soldier!

The promotion ceremony began with the solemn sound of the national anthem. Officers in neat rows stood in front of the rostrum. Commander-in-Chief Xia, the major general of the army, and the major general of the navy each gave the soldiers a military rank order.

Ye Jian watched as Commander Xia personally took off the major rank on Xia Jinyuan’s epaulet and fastened the rank of lieutenant colonel. At that moment, Ye Jian was so excited that she felt like she was the one being promoted.

The ceremony ended with the majestic anthem of the People’s Liberation Army. All the promoted officers saluted the rostrum and the audience.
