Ye Fanxing had no clue as to the true cause of Ye Heping's death.

Although she transmigrated into the book, Ye Fanxing was not the main character, so the author only wrote a few words about her.

Later, only the fact that Cheng Yun replaced Ye Fanxing to attend university was exposed. After resigning, Cheng Yun discovered that she had cancer and donated all her wealth.

These events were only briefly mentioned in casual conversations between the male protagonist, Huo Yanchen, and others.

Ye Fanxing connected all her doubts into a single line, took a deep breath, clenched her fist tightly, and said with unwavering determination, "Uncle Huo, I want to reinvestigate the cause of my father's death."

Huo Dongfang had previously thought that Ye Heping's death was just an accident.

But now it seems that Cheng Jianshe may have been just a pawn.

"Let's investigate together."

Huo Dongfang's voice, firm as the tolling of an ancient temple bell in the forest, rang out in Ye Fanxing's ears with a long and lingering sound.

Because of Huo Dongfang's words, Ye Fanxing had the courage to take a desperate gamble.

"good."

Ye Fanxing walked briskly to Huo Dongfang's side and returned to the Huo family with him.

After returning to the Huo family, Huo Dongfang went to find Huo's mother.

"Mom, Xingxing and I have to go back to the army first."

Upon hearing this, Huo's mother slammed her hand on the table in anger, "Go back if you want, Xingxing won't be going back for now."

"Mom," Huo Dongfang said helplessly.

With a pained expression, Huo's mother took Ye Fanxing's hand, held her slender fingers, and said with heartache, "The doctor said that Xingxing is malnourished. If she goes back to the army with you, she will definitely eat in the canteen every day. I will take good care of her at home."

Mother Huo's words warmed Ye Fanxing's heart.

Ye Fanxing held Huo's mother's hand tightly and replied obediently, "Auntie, we'll come back after we finish what we've done."

"About university?" Mrs. Huo thought that Ye Fanxing's busiest thing lately was probably this. "Xingxing, don't worry about it. Everything about your university has been taken care of."

The matter was to be kept secret, and given the uncertainty surrounding everything, Huo Dongfang was not prepared to tell his mother the truth.

"The engagement banquet is the day after tomorrow. After the engagement banquet, you can talk about the army again."

Mrs. Huo slammed the invitation onto the table.

She's been busy with this matter with Grandma Huo lately.

"I've already sent out the invitations, so it can't be without the two of you main characters present, can it?"

Ye Fanxing thought that there was still some time before Cheng Jianshe was executed, so she could wait until after the engagement banquet to go back to Cheng Jianshe to find out the situation.

"After the engagement banquet, we'll go back for a while. Once things are settled at the military base, I'll bring Xingxing back."

Mrs. Huo put her arm around Ye Fanxing's shoulder and replied affectionately, "Huo Dongfang, you'd better keep your word."

"You keep your word."

Looking at the large stack of medical books in Huo Dongfang's arms, Huo's mother asked in surprise, "Why did you buy so many medical books?"

"I want to buy Xingxing."

Mrs. Huo was overwhelmed with emotion.

As Master Pei said, Ye Fanxing was indeed Huo Dongfang's benefactor.

Since Ye Fanxing is studying medicine, it's probably not far from Huo Dongfang treating her.

"Xingxing, since university hasn't started yet, how about I arrange for you to go to the hospital and see what it's like?"

"Mom," Huo Dongfang interrupted his mother, "Xingxing hasn't received formal medical training yet, so she won't be of much help even if she goes."

"That's true." Mrs. Huo's eyes were full of love. "Xingxing will definitely be very busy when she goes to university. Xingxing should rest well this summer."

The phone rang.

Huo Dongfang casually picked up the phone.

He listened carefully to what was happening on the other end of the phone before saying in a deep voice, "Mom, I'm leaving Xingxing with you. I'm going out for a bit."

"Are you coming home for dinner tonight?" Mrs. Huo asked.

"I don't think he'll come back."

Huo Dongfang was worried that Ye Fanxing would feel uncomfortable being alone at the Huo family home, so he added, "Xingxing, just stay home and read some books. If you get bored, just wander around the yard."

"Leave the stars to me, what else do you need to worry about?"

After Huo Dongfang left, Huo's mother finally took Ye Fanxing's hand.

"Star, there's something I still need to tell you."

What Master Pei said was something that Huo's mother and grandmother had never told Huo Dongfang at first.

The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law didn't want Huo Dongfang to have any psychological burden. Although they usually appeared calm and collected, they were still very anxious inside.

"Auntie, please tell me."

Huo's mother is Huo Dongfang's biological mother, but she still favors Huo Dongfang.

But she also felt indebted to Ye Fanxing.

"Master Pei once said that Dongfang has a benefactor in his life, and with her there, Dongfang can be cured."

Ye Fanxing's eyes were filled with joy. "Auntie, is what you said true? Where is the benefactor? Let's go find him!"

"Far away, yet right before my eyes."

Ye Fanxing was stunned again when Huo's mother said this.

She knows nothing, so how could she be Huo Dongfang's benefactor?

But then she thought that she had to cure Huo Dongfang's hidden illness and then have triplets before she could consider her mission complete.

You can only get 100 million after completing the task.

Thinking about it that way, how could she not be considered Huo Dongfang's benefactor?

"So, I'm Dongfang's benefactor?" Ye Fanxing's almond-shaped eyes widened, looking adorable and endearing.

Mrs. Huo gently hummed in agreement. "Xingxing, no matter the outcome, we want to give it a try!"

"Auntie, Brother Dongfang will definitely get better."

With slightly reddened eyes, Mrs. Huo said with great heartache, "Xingxing, I'm so sorry to have wronged you."

“Auntie, I’m willing,” Ye Fanxing said firmly. “Even if Brother Dongfang can’t be cured, I’m still willing.”

"That won't do." Mrs. Huo felt sorry for Ye Fanxing, this orphan girl who had no one to care for her. "You're still young. Let's try it for two years. If it doesn't work out, I'll take you in as my goddaughter!"

"Auntie, I like Uncle Huo." Ye Fanxing confessed her inappropriate feelings for Huo Dongfang to Huo's mother first. "I want to be with Uncle Huo."

"Star, you are still young..."

"Auntie," Ye Fanxing said, clinging to Huo's mother's arm affectionately, "I really like Uncle Huo, please help me, okay?"

"You child..."

Mrs. Huo thought that Ye Fanxing was still too young and didn't know what love was.

I have no idea what it feels like to spend a lifetime with someone.

Two people who are in love may break up halfway through their relationship.

Moreover, there are situations like Huo Dongfang and Ye Fanxing's.

"aunt?"

Mrs. Huo looked at Ye Fanxing with eyes full of affection and reached out to hold Ye Fanxing's hand.

"Xingxing, why are you so well-behaved!"

Ye Fanxing is so well-behaved that she feels guilty and ashamed.

"Because you all love me!" Ye Fanxing smiled playfully, stood up, picked up her newly bought medical book, and said, "Auntie, I'm going to read the book."

"Go."

Ye Fanxing returned to the Sunrise Courtyard with her medical books in her arms.

She sat at her desk, intently reading and taking notes.

The setting sun shone on Ye Fanxing's profile, casting flickering light and shadow.

This scene stirred a strange flutter in Huo Dongfang's heart.
