Chapter 1989 - Discussion

However, he was even capable of plotting Sun Xueqing’s death… It was possible he could do the same to Ye Jian.

Principal Chen’s heart suddenly sank. He pursed his lips tightly. No, he must tell Captain Xia about this. He didn’t know if the special forces unit had gone through a strict enough screening!

“Girl, I have a suggestion for you. You can come clean with Captain Xia about your situation. Revenge is very important, but we need to do our best. Since the other party has a high position, you and I are not strong enough to fight him head-on. We need external help.

“Regarding Sun Yaozu, I know that nobody will find out the truth with Hou Zi’s skills. However, if problems do occur, you can’t afford to be exposed.”

Ye Jian pursed her lips. She didn’t want to tell Captain Xia everything about herself. She just wanted to ask Captain Xia which generals in the army had powerful political power.

How could Principal Chen not understand her expression? He felt a trace of regret. He regretted teaching her not to ask for help in everything. He also regretted nurturing her overly independent personality.

“Girl, the relationship between two people is different than a relationship with just yourself. To Captain Xia, your matters are his matters. He really cares about you and even asked Hou Zi to help you as much as possible.

“He has already done so much for you. Could it be that you want to conceal this from him and resolve it yourself?”

Ye Jian opened her mouth and wanted to say something, but Principal Chen didn’t give her a chance. He continued in a deep voice, “If you really do that, I can tell you with certainty that Captain Xia will be very angry because he treats you as one of his own while you treat him as an unreliable outsider.

“Girl, do you think of Captain Xia as an outsider?”

Ye Jian didn’t hesitate and replied firmly, “No, no, I don’t think so. I just don’t want to trouble him too much. He has enough problems. I don’t want him to worry about me anymore.”

As the commander of a special forces team, there were too many things that he had to deal with. She could not bear to let him have another burden on his mind.

Her matter could not be resolved in a day or two. The implications were too deep. If she implicated him, she would feel uneasy for the rest of her life.

“Aren’t you a smart child? Why are you always so muddle-headed?” Principal Chen felt his chest tighten. He didn’t know whether to laugh or cry when he saw how she hadn’t reacted yet. “If he finds it troublesome, why would he ask Hou Zi to take care of you?

“He’s definitely not afraid of trouble, and he doesn’t think that your problem is troublesome either. In Captain Xia’s heart, your problem is his problem. It’s something that he has to solve! He puts you in his heart and wishes to help you solve your problems. He wishes that you can be happy in the future.

“I’ve already said so much. You should understand.”

Ye Jian knew that the two of them needed to be honest with each other. She couldn’t lie to the other party. However, she treated the revenge for her mother as her own matter. That was why she got into a dead end.

After Uncle Chen’s reminder, Ye Jian understood immediately. She bit her lower lip and replied softly, “I understand, Uncle Chen. I’ll tell him when he comes back.”
