Chapter 34: Do You Think You Know Me So Well?

They finally reached the officers' cafeteria.

Jeanne specially reserved a small room for the high-ranking officers' meeting and ordered several Japanese dishes that she knew Keiko would like.

The two sat at the table and chatted lightly about random things while eating. Keiko had been very anxious, thinking that Jeanne would ask her some difficult questions, but so far, their topic was so light that Keiko could easily answer it.

But just when Keiko started to relax, Jeanne asked suddenly.

"Did Dad contact you recently?"

"...No," Keiko hesitated for a moment and replied.

"I know you're a straightforward person, and I don't want to beat around the bush either, so I'll speak straight to the point, "Jeanne suddenly put down her chopsticks and asked softly, "What are you and Dad secretly planning?"

Keiko's heart skipped a beat, and she secretly complained, how could she know what General Armstrong was conspiring with the former "Keiko Lee"? And even if she knew, could she tell her when her father didn't?

So, she kept her mouth shut and said nothing.

Jeanne's face sank, and she frowned and said in dissatisfaction, "Why are you all like this? Why are you hiding it from me? Dad, my brother, and now you have all refused to tell me what was going on. Am I that untrustworthy?!"

'Come on young lady, I also want to know the answer…' Keiko complained bitterly in her heart.

Keiko didn't dare speak, but she had doubts in her heart. She still remembered that Jeanne had given her an eight-word warning before, "You have to be careful, don't be reckless." This sentence clearly represented what Jeanne knew, but why did Jeanne ask her as if she didn't know anything? This was illogical.

She quickly sorted through her thoughts and, according to her own speculation, tried to continue, "Major Jeanne is so smart, you might have already had some guesses."

As expected, Jeanne smiled again and snorted softly, "Hmph! Keiko Lee, do you think you really know me so well?"

Keiko's back was soaked in a cold sweat. She knew that she had guessed correctly, and she also knew that she seemed to have stepped on a landmine unintentionally because although Jeanne's smile became brighter, her tone became much colder.

She forcibly calmed down, considered her words, and said:

"Forgive me, Major Jeanne, you know I can't help it either."

"You know that I'm setting you up, so you're determined to keep avoiding it, right?" Jeanne asked again.

Keiko was silent.

"You are just like my father and brother, stubborn like a mule. Whenever I ask a question, you never give me an answer. I really can't communicate with you," her usual sly smile was nowhere to be seen, replaced by a self-ridiculing smile. "They always said it was for my own good and they would not let me know anything. They even sent you to the Western Army without telling me..." When she said this, she suddenly paused, those blue eyes carefully observing Keiko, and then suddenly sneered, "I think you are also very happy to be sent here so you can escape from my clutches..."

Keiko was so innocent that she didn't know how to answer and could only give a wry smile.

"Forget it, I'm not going to force you to answer it if you don't want to," Her smile turned back to the usual sly smile, and she said, "For the sake of me coming to see you from afar and treating you to a meal, can you please answer this one question?"

"Major, I—"

"Okay, that's it!" Jeanne quickly interrupted Keiko's words, so she "happily" helped her decide, and then hurriedly asked, "I said eight words to you before, tell me, did I guess it right?"

My little ancestor, your question is so blunt to the point that I want to cry. How can I answer it? Also, you said "not going to force me", are you sincere? Is this the best of your sincerity?

Keiko wanted to cry, but there was no tear.

Keiko furrowed her brows, feeling a little bit distressed. First, she herself was an unknowing party, and second, Jeanne's eyes were so aggressive that she couldn't bear it.

Seeing that she was silent for a long time without answering, Jeanne seemed really angry. She suddenly raised her wrist, opened her bracelet ID, clicked a few buttons, selected an audio file, and played it.

"You have to be careful. Don't be reckless," This was the voice of a middle-aged man, deep and charming. Just listening to the voice is extraordinary.

"Yes, General, I will pay attention to my surroundings," This was clearly Keiko's own voice.

The audio was very short, so it quickly ended. And then, Jeanne said slowly.

"This is a short recording that I successfully obtained after hacking my dad's confidential file repository with a lot of effort. Without a doubt, this was a conversation between you and my father in the secret room of the study. Although it is not complete, based on this short audio clip, I can almost infer something," Jeanne stared squarely at Keiko's eyes, her eyes so deep, tempting people to swim inside them.

"Keiko," Jeanne said, "I hate people who hide the truth from me the most. I must get to the bottom of the things I am interested in before giving up. It doesn't matter if you don't want to answer me. I have a lot of ways to pry open the secret from your mouth."

At this moment, Keiko finally fully realized the wilfulness of the general's daughter. She even dared to hack her father's confidential file repository. You can imagine how difficult it was to break through the general's secret repository. This unstoppable character made Keiko's back shiver with chills. She could imagine that in the future she would be targeted by Jeanne in various ways.

It might be because Keiko was in a dazed state the whole time and she didn't give any response she should have given, and in order not to reveal flaws, her expression was always serious and calm, and there was no change in the slightest. This made Jeanne even more furious, and she smiled coldly again and said

"Second Lieutenant Lee really can keep her calm. Okay, the meal is finished. Second Lieutenant Lee should go back early to prepare for the afternoon training," she emphasized the word "training" very clearly, and her blue eyes sparkled, like a naughty child planning a prank.

Keiko shuddered; even without her intuition telling her, she would have a long day ahead.
