Chapter 4572: Extreme Intelligence Will Hurt You

“Before Uncle Chen left, he kept telling me not to take revenge for him and not to put myself in danger. Actually, what Uncle Chen wanted to say was that everything would end with his death.

“I’m too stupid, too stupid… I didn’t think of the crux of the matter immediately. I thought that Uncle just didn’t want me to take revenge for him. I was too stupid. If I had thought that Uncle Chen secretly came to the capital city because of me, the National Defense’s investigation might have made faster progress. Maybe they would’ve been able to start taking action by now.”

Ye Jian didn’t understand why Principal Chen would enter the capital city before this. The moment she saw the photo, she couldn’t help but make guesses until she finally understood.

Minister Xia sighed softly. “You’re wrong, child. You’re not stupid. You just didn’t know that the other party was involved. You didn’t know that the other party had never given up.

“Even if you guessed that he came to the capital city for you, the National Defense wouldn’t have the ability to immediately look into the case from a few years ago.

“Child, you’re not stupid. You’re not stupid at all. Instead, you’re so smart. You’ve shocked me. Extreme intelligence can hurt you. I would rather you be stupid. That way, you wouldn’t have too many shackles on your heart and you wouldn’t be tired.

“I just wanted to remind you that you might be in danger too. From the looks of it, I was wrong. I shouldn’t have given you the photo. I just wanted to remind you to be careful in the future. I didn’t want you to cry so sadly.”

Minister Xia really regretted it. He underestimated Ye Jian’s sharpness. He underestimated Ye Jian’s sharp analysis of the matter. That was why this scene happened.

“No, Uncle. I’m very grateful to you. Thank you for letting me see the photo.” Ye Jian raised her hand to wipe the tears from the corners of her eyes and cheeks. She raised her head and looked at Minister Xia with red eyes. Her choked voice was like a trembling guitar string. “If it weren’t for you, I wouldn’t have known that Uncle Chen was assassinated because of me. Thank you, Uncle. Thank you very much.”

After she finished speaking, Ye Jian bowed deeply. Minister Xia hurriedly took a step forward and helped Ye Jian up with both hands. “Child, get up quickly. I’m the one who should be apologizing to you. I made you so sad.”

“Don’t cry anymore. It’s a done deal. Since you want to seek justice for him, you should take good care of yourself. Also, you might not be safe now. You should understand what you should do.”

“Let’s not talk about anything else. First, you have to see if you can stand up for your Uncle Chen and come back alive.”

“Child, the dead are gone. The living need to do more and more things. You need to be calm and not regret it. Do you understand?”

Every word was a gem. Ye Jian remembered them clearly.

Ye Jian wiped her tears with a handkerchief. Then, she took some ice and placed it over her eyes. She didn’t return to the pavilion until Minister Xia nodded.

When Commander Xia saw Ye Jian coming back, he knew that his eldest brother had settled the matter and left.

Mr. Fu retracted his gaze secretly. He could tell that Ye Jian’s mood was not stable. However, she was smiling when she came over. Mr. Fu felt a little uneasy.

His instincts told him that his daughter had something to hide.

It was time to return to Dan Gui Garden. Ye Jian sat down and chatted with the two elders for a while before leaving the Xia family’s old residence with Mr. Fu. Commander Xia stood at the entrance of the two stone lions until the car drove out.

The car drove out. Commander Xia immediately called Minister Xia, who had left. From this, he learned that his daughter-in-law had guessed the cause of the incident by herself. Commander Xia was silent for a long time.
