The minister fumbled slightly, unsure of how to break the news to Hai Ling'er, but this was the outcome of today's meeting.
The smile on Hai Ling'er's face slowly stiffened, "So, I've been replaced, haven't I?"
She was still happy about this yesterday.
The minister glanced at her and said, "Don't be discouraged, you're still young, there will be plenty of opportunities in the future."
"..." Hai Ling'er could almost guess who did this.
Besides Cheng Yanzhi, there would be no one else.
No one else has the power to change a decision already made.
She smiled, maintaining her composure, "It's fine, Minister, I'll head out now."
"Alright, you can go!"
Walking out the door, the smile on Hai Ling'er's face fell.
She didn't understand what she did wrong.
When she saved Cheng Yanzhi, she nearly traded her life for it, ended up with nothing, returned to the command office only to be suppressed by Xia Yunsheng, and was assigned to the General Department, which she let slide.
