Espionage: I became sworn brothers with Zheng Yaoxian at the beginning, and became the Seventh Broth

Chapter 972 Privacy

With no outsiders present, Li Yunfei finally had nothing to worry about.

He recounted the whole story to Ye Shaohong in detail, explaining the cause and effect of the matter.

Upon hearing Li Yunfei's account, Ye Shaohong's lips twitched immediately.

"Grass!"

"What is Xu Zhongyi thinking? I'm just assigning him tasks, so he should just do them honestly. Why is he being so sarcastic!"

It's no wonder Ye Shaohong was so angry; what happened today was just too unusual.

Ye Shaohong was speechless for a moment.

What happened? This story begins with Li Yunfei escorting Xu Zhongyi home with Chang Botao.

Following the normal procedure, Xu Zhongyi and Li Yunfei went home with Chang Botao. Their only task was to supervise Chang Botao in capturing the third concubine.

Just find out the relationship between the third concubine and Bayin.

Then they recorded everything and handed it over to Ye Shaohong.

The problem is, something unexpected happened along the way.

As Commander Chang Botao arranged for his guards to drag the third concubine out of the villa, a six or seven-year-old boy also chased after her, crying.

The little boy cried and pestered Chang Botao's guards, begging them to let go.

There's nothing particularly special about this.

Xu Zhongyi was angry and didn't want to take on the task. Now that he saw the little boy, no one knew what the bastard was thinking, but he actually went over to him like that.

They stopped the little boy.

Not only did he intercept the boy, but Xu Zhongyi also casually remarked, "Is this little boy the nephew of the third concubine?"

He looks robust and chubby.

These words were originally just something Xu Zhongyi said casually, and he didn't really take them to heart.

But when the words reached Chang Botao's ears, it was a different story.

Who is Chang Botao?

He was a frail, bookish scholar.

Although he was a soldier, he was as thin as a stick and always wore dark-rimmed glasses.

Upon hearing Xu Zhongyi's casual remark, Chang Botao's expression immediately changed.

Then, Chang Botao casually replied, "The little boy's appearance is probably a case of the nephew resembling his uncle."

This is actually quite normal.

In China, there is an ancient saying that a nephew should follow his maternal uncle's example.

After all, my uncle and mother are siblings from the same mother, so they have some similarities in their genetic sequence and appearance.

Some children do resemble their uncles more than their fathers.

That's because children inherit their mother's genes and appearance from her family.

Chang Botao's explanation is reasonable.

If Xu Zhongyi can back down now and stop talking so much, then everything will be fine.

But Xu Zhongyi must have lost his mind today.

He failed to grasp the implied meaning in Chang Botao's words.

They didn't shut up.

Xu Zhongyi carefully examined the little boy's appearance, then looked at the third concubine who had been dragged out. After a moment, the bastard actually shook his head on the spot.

He replied that it didn't seem like it.

It does look somewhat like it...

And then, well... that's it, that's it.

Chang Botao kicked Xu Zhongyi to the ground, completely interrupting Xu Zhongyi's words that he was about to say.

Then Chang Botao ordered his men to tie up Xu Zhongyi.

That's the way it is.

In the end, it was all a misunderstanding.

Um…….

A beautiful misunderstanding.

Ye Shaohong was so smart that he understood everything almost instantly after Li Yunfei's explanation.

So that's how it is. Commander Chang Botao's third concubine wasn't just secretly having an affair with Bayin.

There is a high possibility that the two of them may have secretly conceived.

She gave birth to a baby.

The third concubine brought this doll home and claimed it directly as the clock of Commander Chang Botao.

He grew up in the Chang family and was cherished by Chang Botao, his teacher.

Chang Botao hadn't thought much about these things before.

Even though Xu Zhongyi inadvertently discovered the affair between the third concubine and Bayin, and Chang Botao had already brought people home to arrest them, Chang Botao never expected this.

I didn't think about it too deeply.

But Xu Zhongyi has a sharp tongue.

Unfortunately, his casual remark completely brought Chang Botao to his senses. Chang Botao finally realized he had been tricked.

It's one thing to discover or notice something, but these are private matters of a wealthy family. They can handle them behind closed doors after all the outsiders have left.

If handled properly, it will not affect the reputation of Chang Botao, the teacher.

But Xu Zhongyi was unaware of this.

He even subtly revealed the truth, almost saying things he shouldn't have.

They were practically pointing at Commander Chang Botao's head and saying he had a green meadow on his head.

Could Major General Chang Botao, the commander of a division, tolerate such a thing?

No wonder he was furious.

For the sake of his own reputation and the honor of the Chang family, he didn't shoot Xu Zhongyi dead on the spot; that was already giving Ye Shaohong face. Under these circumstances, how could Ye Shaohong possibly lead his men to forcibly demand Xu Zhongyi's return?

"Oh shit."

"What the hell is going on?"

Having figured out the cause and effect, Ye Shaohong couldn't help but feel secretly relieved that he had just calmed down.

They did not act impulsively or recklessly.

If he had led his men straight into Chang Botao's villa, then today, probably only one of them would have come out alive.

"Once today's events are resolved, I'll see how I deal with him."

After cursing angrily, Ye Shaohong shook his head before turning around and walking back to the convoy.

He summoned Song Xiaoan and Zhao Jianzhi, instructing them to bring their men and wait outside. They were not to enter without his orders.

Even if gunshots are heard inside, it won't work.

Song Xiaoan and Zhao Jianzhi were naturally unwilling to agree; in their view, Ye Shaohong's behavior was far too risky.

Their Military Intelligence Bureau isn't someone to be trifled with.

It would be better to bring people and charge in together.

Ye Shaohong had a lot of unspeakable suffering in his heart. He couldn't possibly tell Chang Botao, the Commander Chang's family affairs, and his secret private matters.

Finally, having no other choice, he could only repeatedly dissuade them and use their military ranks and positions to stop them, which finally calmed down Song Xiaoan and Zhao Jianzhi, who cared about him a lot, and made them obey his orders.

With the outside matters resolved, Ye Shaohong walked to the villa entrance.

He introduced himself and asked the guards inside the villa to go in and announce his arrival. Soon, a message came from inside.

Let Ye Shaohong in.

After Ye Shaohong entered the villa, he was searched and all the guns and knives on his person were taken out.

This is a bit much.

Ye Shaohong was, after all, a colonel in the Nationalist government and the head of the Third Division of the Tenth Bureau of the Military Intelligence Bureau.

Being disarmed is tantamount to stripping Ye Shaohong of his face.

But no way.

In order to safely rescue Xu Zhongyi, Ye Shaohong held back. After taking a long breath, Ye Shaohong, led by the guards, entered the villa.

I met Commander Chang from the Green Grassland...
