Chapter 591: Refusing To Give Up
The officer had a strong first impression of Ye Jian. This was the first time he felt that the student standing in front of him was a soldier.
A soldier, not a student from the military school.
The instructors took control of the scene. The officer took a step forward. His force of presence was domineering. He glanced at the students intently with a stern face. All the students turned silent. No one spoke again.
“Did you say the last student who came will drag you down? Who was the first person who said it? Come up.” After controlling the situation, the officer opened his mouth. His gaze was calm but no one dared to look at him directly.
Ye Ying started s.h.i.+vering.
She didn’t go up. She didn’t dare to go up. Why, why can’t things go as planned? Why do accidents always happen? This officer doesn’t know Ye Jian. Everyone is quarreling because of Ye Jian. Why is he looking for me instead?
She got an imminent feeling. She closed her eyes and took a deep breath. Then, she walked out steadily. “Officer, it’s me. Ye Jian only came to our cla.s.s today so I took extra notice of her.”
Ye Ying had some strengths too. She was always willing to admit that she was wrong. When she realized that the situation was getting out of hand, she would apologize and try to find a way out after that.
Ye Jian respected her for this. Not everyone had the courage to admit their mistakes.
The officer didn’t scold her. Instead, he stared at her carefully and asked in a low voice, “What were your original words? Can you repeat it for me?” There were students so he couldn’t scold or beat them up. He could only educate them.
How he would educate them depends on what the source of the quarrel was.
“I didn’t say much. The instructor asked Ye Jian to fall out so I mentioned that her standing position wasn’t right. It didn’t look as nice as other students. I also said that we will be having an exercise performance that affects our rank and points. If one person doesn’t do well, the entire cla.s.s will be implicated.” Ye Jian repeated her words. She calmed down a little. She didn’t say anything else. She was just worried about her cla.s.smates.
There was nothing wrong with what she said. Even her instructor agreed with her.
It was hard to find any mistakes in Ye Ying’s answer. She was indeed quite smart. However, she couldn’t stand Ye Jian. Every time she saw Ye Jian, she wanted to harm her. This was her biggest problem: low tolerance.
Yao Jing wasn’t as smart as Ye Ying but her tolerance level was high. She knew when to control her temper and wait for the best moment to strike.
The officer saw the instructor nodding. This meant that Ye Ying was speaking the truth.
“You meant well but you made a mistake. You judged your cla.s.smate before confirming the situation.” The officer was a man. He wasn’t able to see Ye Ying’s cheap tricks. “Even if you see something wrong with her posture, you should report it to your instructor and not worry about the prestige of your cla.s.s first.”
