Chapter 2317 Like A Burning Star

Ye Jian was a little moved, but she didn’t trust Kun Dan much. However, she didn’t mind listening to his arrangements first.

So she asked politely, “Mr. Kun Dan, can you tell me about your arrangements now?” Then, she would return to her comrades and discuss with them if it was feasible.

Kun Dan was an experienced man, so he naturally saw Ye Jian’s concerns.

He didn’t feel offended but felt that the girl’s eyes, especially when they were sharp, looked like his daughter begging him to take her out to play, never satisfied, and her watery eyes, when she was so angry, looked like burning stars.

Just like this Chinese girl in front of him, her eyes were bright, shimmering, and very beautiful.

Kun Dan, who had deep memories in his eyes, didn’t argue much with Ye Jian. Her vivid and beautiful eyes made him reluctant to argue with her.

If his daughter was still alive, she would be almost twenty years old.

“Map, motorcycle…Leave this way; you will be safe.” He took out a waterproof map from the black plastic bag and marked many route marks with a red pen. This was a map often used by Kun Dan, too. It was also his route for munitions.

Knowing why Kun Dan wanted to help, Ye Jian’s pupils shrank slightly when she saw the map. Kun Dan… an arms dealer… J5 only had a trading relationship with him; why did he risk such dangers to help them?

He was a native of the neighboring country, and they were the Chinese who the New Policy of the neighboring country wanted to eliminate!

Ye Jian felt a little uneasy in accepting his help and also very unreliable.

Kun Dan only looked at Ye Jian’s eyes. As for what she thought in her heart, none of them were within his consideration. He never thought that his actions were equivalent to opposing the New Policy.

Ye Jian didn’t understand, but Kun Dan knew in his heart why he wanted to help these Chinese people; he understood very well in his heart.

“Four checkpoints in the city, you guys, from here…” The black greasy finger pointed to the map, and when he pointed to a spot, he immediately raised his head and looked at Ye Jian’s eyes, “On the mountain, smuggling, drugs trading dark lines is much safer than other places…”

“You guys…ride motorcycles and go this way.” He pointed out a dark road for Ye Jian. It was a dark road for drugs and arms transactions, and finally, he told Ye Jian where to go to enter the Chinese land.

Ye Jian only felt that the map in her hand was a bit heavy. She pursed the corner of her mouth and said softly, “Thank you.”

“Don’t thank me, my daughter…look…” Kun Dan pulled out a photo from his pocket. His hands were dirty, and the crevices of his fingers were covered with grease, but the photo in his pocket looked as clean as new.

In fact, this was a photo from ten years ago. The year, month, and day were very clearly printed in the lower right corner of the photo.

Ye Jian looked at the little girl in the picture; she was eleven or twelve-year-old, with a ponytail, holding a big marshmallow in her hand and showing an innocent and sweet smile to the camera.

“Your eyes are very similar, my daughter; they are very similar. Seeing your eyes, I can finally see what my daughter’s eyes look like.”

The man spoke jerky Chinese in a weird accent, but it didn’t stop Ye Jian from hearing the sadness in his voice. This man was an arms dealer and sitting in front of her now, he had faint tears flickering in his eyes.

Ye Jian understood why he always looked into her eyes now.

It turned out that he did all this because he thought her eyes were like the little girl’s eyes in the photo.

 Although she didn’t see how her eyes resembled his daughter’s eyes, Ye Jian softly said in response to a father missing his dead daughter, “Yes, they are indeed very similar.”
