After observing from a distance and finding no one following him, he lowered his guard.

However, he understood that there was no point in saying these words now, so he didn't intend to explain.

Ouyang Jian lowered his head and said, "It's my fault, sir."

"It's your fault! Is this the time to find out whose fault it is? If it's your fault, then those people won't know it was me?"

I really don't know whether to call you stupid or what, you're utterly hopeless!

Ackerman was furious. He reached out and rubbed his forehead, not wanting to pay any attention to Ouyang Jian.

He truly couldn't understand how Ouyang Jian, who was already quite old, could act so recklessly.

He originally sent him there to distance himself from the situation, since outsiders all thought he was Jiang Xuanjin's man.

Who would have thought that Jiang Xuanjin would suddenly release the news at this moment, catching him completely off guard.

Ouyang Jian remained silent.

He simply couldn't think of any excuses to make.

After a long while, Ackerman's gaze gradually turned cold as he looked at Ouyang Jian and said, "You must know where he's hiding, right?"

If he still doesn't know who's behind this now, he's a fool.

Well, he's just keeping a wolf by his side, and it's an ungrateful wretch that he can't tame!

Ouyang Jian said with a somewhat unpleasant expression, "I don't know?"

Ackerman took a deep breath. "You don't even know this? Then what do you know!"

Ouyang Jian couldn't answer. It wasn't that he lacked ability, but rather that Jiang Xuanjin had been wary of him from the very beginning, especially after Jiang Xuanjin returned from Lancheng.

Although it may seem like nothing on the surface, he actually has no right to participate in the main activities.

Even when Jiang Xuanjin gave instructions, he was basically ignored.

He originally thought that Jiang Xuanjin disliked him because he didn't like his daughter, after all, he had been with Jiang Xuanjin all along.

Looking back now, it seems that Jiang Xuanjin had probably been wary of him all along.

Ackerman felt a sense of helplessness and an urge to kill someone.

If he weren't short-handed, he would definitely do this.

Ackerman acted swiftly, gathering a team and personally leading them to destroy the biological research institute live, and arresting Evan on charges of endangering public safety.

Evan was furious, but helpless. He could only look at Ackerman as if he were an enemy.

Ackerman was also deeply distressed. These were all secret weapons he had painstakingly planned in preparation for future wars, and now they had all been destroyed before they even came to fruition. His heart was bleeding.

But if he doesn't do this, how can he clear his name?

Only if he survives this crisis unscathed can we talk about the future; otherwise, he won't even be in this position, so what right does he have to discuss grand future plans?

At the same time, Ackerman also held a press conference, denying that Ouyang Jian was his man, saying that he had other reasons for asking him to come, and that what he and Evan said had nothing to do with him.

But this statement is not enough to convince everyone, and many people have already decided to switch sides next time.

After all, Ackerman's current ideas are quite dangerous. We are all ordinary people who just want to live peacefully.

Jiang Xuanjin was not surprised when he received this news. He looked at Liu Nian and said, "The evidence we collected earlier has been released as well."

Liu Nian was overjoyed. He knew very well that once the evidence was released, Ackerman would definitely lose the support of the people, and his son Jiang Xuanjin would be the most likely person to take power.

Sure enough, a few days after the evidence was released, protests broke out all over the country, demanding that Ackerman step down!

Ackerman looked at the evidence pointing to him as the mastermind, and the funds allocated from the national treasury, though for various reasons, all ended up flowing to the biological research institute where Evan worked.

There were also large procurement lists, all personally signed by Ackerman.

...

All of this evidence demonstrates just how ridiculous Ackerman's previous actions were.

As time went on, the protests intensified, and Ackerman was placed under the highest level of security whenever he went out; otherwise, he would have doubted whether he would ever make it back.

Jiang Xuanjin's popularity was growing, but he didn't care at all.

On the beach late at night, Jiang Xuanjin gazed at the moon, thinking about someone he shouldn't be thinking about. Everything he did was to have the ability to protect her, even though she might not need it.

...

Beijing

A private plane landed directly on the lawn of the villa castle, and a group of people stood in a row not far from the lawn.

Ye Ling'er, supporting the old man, excitedly said, "It's my brother and sister-in-law who's back."

The old man said, "I don't know if that's true. Be more mature. You're about to get married. Be careful not to be disliked!"

Ye Ling'er raised her chin, glanced at the silent Nangong Ci beside her, and said, "He dares!"

"If he doesn't like it, I'll just replace him and find someone else!"

Nangong Ci smiled, but his expression was inscrutable.

No sooner had he finished speaking than the old man reached out and slapped Ye Ling'er, "Say that again! I'll beat you to death!"

"We members of the Ye family must be loyal to someone from beginning to end, unless they do something that violates our choice."

Ye Ling'er quickly stepped aside and explained, "Grandpa, I was just saying. Besides, it was Aci himself who said he likes the real me. You can blame him if you want."

After saying that, Ye Ling'er glanced at Nangong Ci, as if to say, "If you don't stand up for me, you're definitely doomed."

The old man looked at Nangong Ci, as if asking a question.

Nangong Ci, like a noble young master, was polite and smiled as he said, "Grandpa, it was me who said that Ling'er is good as she is. I like her being herself."

After listening, the old man first nodded in satisfaction, then suddenly frowned and said, "Who is your grandfather!"

He then haughtily turned his head away and looked at the plane.

Nangong Ci understood the old man's meaning perfectly well, and quickly said, "Grandpa, my parents are now preparing to find an auspicious day for both sets of elders to sit down together and discuss Ling'er and me."

During this time, he and Ye Ling'er had confirmed their feelings for each other. He had long been deeply in love with her, and after meeting Ling'er this time, he found that he could not extricate himself and did not want to let her leave again.

Because if he leaves again, there might not be a place for him by her side next time.

He wanted to be tied to her for the rest of his life.

Ye Ling'er's cheeks flushed slightly as she listened silently.

Upon hearing this, the old man said with slight satisfaction, "That's more like it."

Then, Lin Ma's words immediately drew everyone's attention back to the private jet on the lawn.

"The young master and young mistress have come out."

Everyone looked up and saw Jian Yixue and Ye Mohan walking in front.

Ye Mohan carefully helped the heavily pregnant Jian Yixue down the steps.
