Ye Fanxing nestled shivering in Huo Dongfang's arms. Huo Dongfang's strong and powerful heartbeat rang in Ye Fanxing's ears, like a thunderclap in spring.
Huo Dongfang's broad shoulders and narrow waist made Ye Fanxing appear even more petite and delicate, making her all the more endearing.
This was the first time Huo Dongfang had ever heard the term "lone star of destiny".
He never imagined that this word would drive Ye Fanxing to write a suicide note and jump into the river to end her life.
"Who said you're a cursed lone star?"
Huo Dongfang's eyes flashed with a terrifying light, and his extremely frightening appearance exuded a strong killing intent.
What are the true intentions of the person who said such hurtful things to someone who has lost a beloved child?
Ye Fanxing looked into Huo Dongfang's terrifying eyes, her bloodless lips trembling.
Her vision went black, and she fainted in Huo Dongfang's strong and powerful arms.
Huo Dongfang lowered his head, looking at Ye Fanxing's pale yet stubborn face, and the killing intent in his heart grew stronger and stronger.
Seeing this, the guard cautiously offered a reminder.
"Sir, why don't we send Comrade Ye Fanxing to the military hospital first?"
Huo Dongfang took off his soaking wet coat and picked up the unconscious Ye Fanxing.
"Go and find out what happened to Ye Fanxing during the day today?"
"Yes, sir!"
Huo Dongfang carried Ye Fanxing and rushed to the military hospital.
The military doctor gave Ye Fanxing a full-body examination and then put her on an IV drip.
"What exactly happened to this little girl? How could she be so troubled at such a young age?"
The nurse changed Ye Fanxing into a clean hospital gown. Lying on the hospital bed, Ye Fanxing looked delicate and pitiful.
Huo Dongfang looked at the red dress casually placed on the back of the chair, his eyes filled with coldness.
Some say she's a cursed star, destined to be alone.
The military doctor sternly rebuked, "Isn't this nonsense? What era are we living in? Why are you still believing in this?"
A hint of mockery flashed across Huo Dongfang's deep, dark eyes.
“Someone has their eye on the inheritance her father left her.”
Initially, Huo Dongfang was extremely displeased when Ye Fanxing recounted Cheng Jian and Su Mingyue's calculations to him.
He hated being schemed against more than anything in his life.
But when he learned what kind of life Ye Fanxing had been living with Cheng Jian all these years, Huo Dongfang forgave Ye Fanxing's scheming.
Who wouldn't want to be a carefree little princess?
The little princess, who was cherished by Ye Heping, had no choice but to scheme against him in order to survive!
At that moment, he finally understood that she wasn't plotting against him.
She was using him to seek a glimmer of hope.
Given Cheng Jianshe and Liu Guiying's greed, would they be indifferent to Ye Heping's inheritance?
If that were true, how could such absurd rumors as Ye Fanxing being Cheng Jian's childhood sweetheart have spread outside?
The military doctor sighed, "Alas... children without parents are truly pitiful."
A pang of heartache flashed across Huo Dongfang's eyes.
If Ye Heping were still alive, Ye Fanxing would not have had to endure so much injustice.
The guard knocked gently on the door of the ward.
"Report."
Huo Dongfang: "Go in."
The guard entered the ward and recounted his investigation findings one by one.
"Sir, it was Cheng Jianshe's wife, Liu Guiying, and his daughter, Cheng Xiao, who bullied Ye Fanxing in the military compound today."
"Many people in the military compound saw it."
"They say Ye Fanxing is a cursed lone star."
A chilling ruthlessness flashed in Huo Dongfang's eyes.
He said coldly, "I understand."
The guards silently stepped aside.
The military doctor reached out and patted Huo Dongfang on the shoulder. "It's getting late. You should go back and rest. I'll have the nurses take good care of her."
Huo Dongfang was not sleepy at all; his heart was burning with a fierce fire.
He didn't originally intend to go too far!
Since the Cheng family is heartless, then don't blame him for being unjust!
Give me paper and pen.
The medic asked, "What do you need paper and pen for?"
"I want to take Cheng Jianshe to a military court."
Meanwhile, Cheng Jianshe had already learned from his neighbors that Ye Fanxing had committed suicide by jumping into the river.
A chill ran down his spine.
Ye Fanxing committed suicide!
Whether they are dead or alive, the fact that their family drove their comrade's orphan to his death is now a settled matter.
His political career has come to an end!
"What exactly did you do to Ye Fanxing today?"
Liu Guiying, unaware of the seriousness of the situation, simply grumbled, "Was I wrong to say that ungrateful wretch was a cursed star? She still has the nerve to ask us for things..."
Cheng Jianshe slapped Liu Guiying hard across the face, which was full of ignorance and stupidity.
Liu Guiying was instantly stunned.
Cheng Xiao immediately protected Liu Guiying, and retorted angrily, "Dad, if you don't support Mom, why did you hit her? Ye Fanxing went too far, what's wrong with Mom saying a few words to her?"
"Shut up!"
Cheng Jianshe's face turned ashen, and his tone was horrified.
"Ye Heping saved my life, didn't you know?"
"Ye Heping sacrificed his life for the country, didn't you know?"
"I'm trying my best to smooth things over, but you guys insist on stirring things up? What, do you want to die?"
"Or do you think you're living too well now? Do you ever think about the days of poverty when you're not even clothed or have enough to eat?"
Cheng Xiao shrank back and retorted quietly, "Ye Fanxing has ruined our family like this. We just said a few words to her. How could it be so serious?"
"Ye Fanxing committed suicide!" Cheng Jianshe roared.
Upon hearing this, Liu Guiying exclaimed with delight, "It's good that the scourge is dead! With him gone, all those things will be ours!"
