Chapter 2222: Until Death Do Us Part
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
After a while, Ye Jian asked in confusion, “Why haven’t there been any letters for four years?”
“That’s because our country conducts research on missiles and satellites in secret. In order to keep it a secret, all the scientists involved in the research are not allowed to leave the research base easily, let alone contact their families casually. They live in isolation,” Xia Jinyuan replied Ye Jian with a respectful tone for these researchers. “It’s normal to not receive or send out any letters for four years.”

Li Jinnian knew that Xia Jinyuan was speaking up for him. He nodded slightly to express his gratitude. “Grandfather and Grandmother are both in research and development. They rarely come home. They don’t know anything about my mother and uncle. It’s normal for the two of them not to receive any letters from their children in a year.
“That’s why Grandfather didn’t know my uncle was in solitary confinement for as long as a year, much less that he was preparing to marry.
“After my uncle secretly reported this matter, my maternal grandfather, who had returned, immediately secretly entrusted a friend to inquire about it. However, they found nothing. There was no female soldier called ‘Red Plum’ in the army.”
Ye Jian’s fingers trembled. Did her mother... not tell anyone her real name? Was that why they didn’t find out where she was?
After a year, they went to the army to look for her mother. At that time, her mother was not in the army at all. She had gone home to give birth to her!
‘Is that why they didn’t find out where she was?’
Ye Jian, whose heart was already in turmoil, guessed and thought...
“A year before that, my uncle and aunt were preparing to get married. A year later, when Grandpa went to ask around, there was actually no news of her at all. For a long time, Grandpa wondered if my uncle had lost his mind from being locked up for a year. Perhaps the so-called fiancée was just someone my uncle had imagined and did not actually exist.
“If it weren’t for this photo...” Li Jinnian took out the old photo again and looked down at the young man and woman in it. “It’s precisely this photo that made Grandpa confirm that my uncle did have a fiancée and they were preparing to get a marriage certificate.”

There were too many emotions in his eyes that made Ye Jian’s heart heavy. She didn’t even have the courage to reach out.
‘What if... I get the wrong person?’
She didn’t reach out to take it for a long time, so Li Jinnian stayed in the same position and waited patiently for her to reach out.
“Take it and take a good look.” Xia Jinyuan tightened his grip on her hand. He approached her and said gently and steadily, “For your own sake and for the sake of Old Master Fu, you should take it and take a good look.”
The familiar aura that calmed her heart wrapped around her and gave her the courage to reach out.
The moment she took the photo, Ye Jian saw Li Jinnian’s straight shoulders relax. He was actually afraid... afraid that she would reject him again.
Ye Jian took a deep breath and lowered her eyes. She was not wrong. The young woman in the photo was indeed her mother.
In the diary was a photo of her mother in uniform. She had the same smile, and even her body was the same size. The only difference was that it was a single shot of her.
