Chapter 1623: An Old Friend Comes
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Uncle Chen didn’t tell Ye Jian because he didn’t want Ye Jian to worry. He wanted to protect her. Hence, he mustn’t mention Uncle Chen’s past to Ye Jian.
Today, he almost made a huge mistake. Since Uncle Chen and Ye Jian were relatives, he thought that Ye Jian should know everything about him.
Ye Jian pursed her lips tightly. Uncle Chen didn’t want to tell her, and Major Xia didn’t want to tell her either… Why did they have to hide it from her? Was Uncle Chen still in danger? What other secrets did Uncle Chen have?
Was it a dangerous secret?
Ye Jian, who had a sharp mind, lowered her eyes. Her thick and long eyelashes covered the complicated emotions in her eyes. She was a little worried.
Xia Jinyuan knew that his words still disturbed Ye Jian.
After the training ended, he would call Uncle Chen immediately and apologize to him.
Far away in Shuikou Village, Uncle Chen opened the wooden door. Under the light, he saw who was knocking. The expression on his resolute face suddenly changed.
“Hello, is this Sun Xueqing’s martyr’s house?” At the door, Commissioner Cai asked politely, “I am looking for her daughter, Ye Jian.”
Uncle Chen sighed softly and said politely, “Yes, please come in.”
After entering the room and sitting down, Commissioner Cai looked at the middle-aged man who was not much older than him. He lowered his head to conceal the doubt in his eyes as he drank his tea. Why did this person… look a little familiar?
He seemed to have seen him somewhere before.
After putting on his clothes and washing up, Uncle Chen looked at the middle-aged man drinking tea. His gaze was dark too.
He knew who he was. He was Ye Jian’s mother’s former comrade. He saw him in a photo.
“I’m sorry to disturb you.” Commissioner Cai didn’t think about who the middle-aged man was anymore. Instead, he took the initiative to say his intention. “I’m here to look for my comrade’s daughter, Ye Jian. May I know who you are?”
Uncle Chen sat down and took a sip of hot tea before replying, “I’m Ye Jian’s uncle. My surname is Chen. Why are you looking for Ye Jian? She’s not at home now.”
Commissioner Cai had already asked around before he came. He knew that Ye Jian had to thank Principal Chen for taking care of her. If it wasn’t for these two people, Ye Jian might have been crippled by her uncle’s family.
“So you’re Principal Chen. Hello, Principal Chen. My surname is Cai. I’m a comrade of Sun Xueqing.” Commissioner Cai saw that he had found the right person and the smile on his face became more sincere. He opened his briefcase and took out a yellowed diary. “These are Sun Xueqing’s belongings. Principal Chen, can you pass it to Ye Jian?”
“The last time I met her in a hurry in Tongzhou, we parted without saying much. When I saw her, it was like I saw Sun Xueqing’s martyr-like demeanor. She inherited her mother’s spirit. She’s an amazing child.”
He even met Ye Jian!
Uncle Chen’s expression turned dark again. He didn’t take the diary. Instead, he looked at this old friend sharply. “Did Mr. Cai mention her mother to Ye Jian?”
“Principal Chen, don’t worry. I know the severity of the matter. I haven’t told you anything about Sun Xueqing.” Commissioner Cai noticed Principal Chen’s sharp gaze. He straightened his body and said sternly, “It looks like Principal Chen knows about Sun Xueqing.. I haven’t told Ye Jian about this matter because I have many questions.”
