ARIPOEC Chapter 16

Since everyone has been reborn from their past lives, some things are easier to communicate.

Lin Jun thought for a moment and then asked, “Did you orchestrate the Ye Wenxing incident?”

Ye Mingyuan nodded, “It was me.”

No wonder Ye Wenxing only disappeared this time and wasn’t seriously injured.

Lin Jun frowned, “It really was you.”

Lin Jun had been thinking about the reason for Ye Wenxing’s accident for the past few days. But after thinking about it, the only thing different from his previous life was Ye Mingyuan. He had always suspected that Ye Mingyuan had changed everything, but he didn’t have any proof.

“Was the attack by the alien race the last time your doing? Did you put Ye Wenxing under house arrest?”

Ye Mingyuan was stunned for a moment, “Is that what you think of me?”

He said it with grievance, and Lin Jun coughed awkwardly, “I can’t think of any other possibilities.”

After all, Ye Wenxing was a member of the Ye family. Could Ye Mingyuan possibly pull Ye Wenxing into his own camp?

Just as this guess appeared in his mind, Lin Jun saw Ye Mingyuan nod slightly.

Lin Jun’s eyes widened.

“I started planning a long time ago. I sent someone to show Ye Wenxing some evidence of the Ye family’s treason, and he agreed to cooperate with me after seeing it.”

Lin Jun was shocked after hearing this, “Aren’t you afraid he’ll tell the Ye family? What if he drags you down with him?”

His worry warmed Ye Mingyuan’s heart slightly, “How is that possible? Do you think I’m that stupid?”

The anxious expression on Lin Jun’s face froze.

That’s right, he forgot how clever and cunning Ye Mingyuan was.

At least in terms of setting up schemes, Lin Jun had almost never won against him in his previous life.

“In our previous life, Ye Wenxing was seriously injured because he discovered the Ye family’s treason. Ye Wenxing had a conflict with Marshal Ye, and the Zerg learned about this, so they sent an assassin to kill Ye Wenxing.”

“The Ye family suffered this loss in silence and didn’t dare to speak out, so they had to bring me, this illegitimate child, back.”

The truth from many years ago was revealed before him, and Lin Jun was shocked.

He never expected that the Ye family had been secretly colluding with the Zerg from so early on.

In his previous life, it was eight years later that the Emperor’s health deteriorated, and he began to help the Crown Prince win over court officials, which looked like he was going to let the Crown Prince ascend the throne.

The Ye family stood on the side of the Second Prince, and that’s why they took the Second Prince to the Third Star Region to claim the throne, catching the Empire off guard, and even united with the Zerg to counterattack the Empire.

Lin Jun originally thought that the Ye family rebelled and claimed the throne because they saw no hope for the Second Prince to ascend the throne, but now it seems that they had this intention a long time ago.

“This ambition is really terrifying…” Lin Jun couldn’t help but sigh, “Have you already thought of a plan to deal with them?”

Since Ye Mingyuan had already taken action to create the Ye Wenxing incident, he must have made complete preparations.

Ye Mingyuan nodded, “I didn’t plan to do it so early, but some time ago, in order to chase after someone, I accidentally released my combat mech…”

Someone: “…”

“An Qiyun is my grandfather, so the Ye family would have found out about me through the combat mech sooner or later. I simply advanced the plan and played along.”

A cold light flashed in Ye Mingyuan’s eyes, “I’ve already collected a lot of evidence of the Ye family’s treason, and now I’m just waiting for Ye Wenming to run into me.”

“…You want to gain his trust?”

Ye Mingyuan smiled without saying a word, neither nodding nor denying.

The expression on Lin Jun’s face gradually stiffened.

When he thought about how strictly he had been guarding against Ye Wenming before, he felt that his behavior was simply idiotic.

What was he doing?!

He thought Ye Mingyuan was unaware of anything and self-righteously thought he was protecting Ye Mingyuan.

Ahhhhh, Lin Jun wished he could turn back time. He definitely wouldn’t do such a stupid thing again.

Ye Mingyuan was collecting evidence! Wasn’t he disrupting the plan by doing this!

Lin Jun glared at Ye Mingyuan angrily. This person knew everything but didn’t say anything!

“Why didn’t you tell me?!”

Ye Mingyuan curled his lips, “Why should I tell you? I’m already happy enough that you’re willing to stick by my side.”

Lin Jun: “…”

Could this person have a love brain?!

Lin Jun was furious, “Then what should we do now? Ye Wenming must have noticed something. Will there be any problems with your plan?”

“Don’t worry, Ye Wenming won’t give up so easily. At least during the field practice course, he will definitely take action again.”

Looking at how confident he was, Lin Jun couldn’t help but ask, “Have you thought of a way to deal with it?”

“He should try to start with you,” Ye Mingyuan said, “Remember to stay close to me.”

“From me?”

Ye Mingyuan sighed softly, raised his hand, and rubbed Lin Jun’s hair, “You’re my weakness now.”

Lin Jun was slightly stunned, and his ears quickly turned pink.

What was wrong with Ye Mingyuan today? Why did he start saying sweet words like crazy?

It was too unfair!

Although Lin Jun was unwilling to admit it, his heart skipped a beat at that moment.

He inexplicably remembered the last battle in his previous life, when Ye Mingyuan lied that he was escorting him back to the Capital Star, but he was actually just sending him away from the battlefield, leaving himself to face the Zerg.

It was clear that he had won a great victory, but in the end, all the honor fell into Lin Jun’s hands.

Had Ye Mingyuan already fallen in love with him at that time?

Lin Jun’s heart fluttered slightly, and his eyes couldn’t help but feel a little hot.

He had always been concerned about this matter, and Lin Jun even felt that he owed Ye Mingyuan a lot.

Ye Mingyuan quickly noticed the change in him, “Why are you crying?”

Lin Jun denied it outright, “Who’s crying?! I just… got sand in my eyes.”

But the surroundings were clearly a clean and tidy dormitory. Where would the sand come from?

“Yes, yes, yes,” Ye Mingyuan said agreeably. He gently touched the red corners of Lin Jun’s eyes with his fingertips.

“Next time…” Lin Jun uttered a few words and then stopped.

After a long time, a faint voice finally sounded in the room, “You broke your promise last time.”

Ye Mingyuan was stunned.

Promise me, come back alive.

He did break his promise.

“I’m sorry…” Ye Mingyuan’s heart softened slightly, “It won’t happen again next time.”

Lin Jun was also a little embarrassed by his sudden sentimentality. He turned his head away to hide his out-of-control emotions, “There won’t be a next time.”

Ye Mingyuan nodded, “That’s right, there won’t be a next time.”

The two of them looked at each other and smiled knowingly.

Having been reborn once, no matter what happened in this life, Lin Jun and Ye Mingyuan would not allow the events of their previous life to happen again.

The Empire would not fall into war, never!
