Chapter 854: Deep Waters Run Silently While Shallow Waters Are Noisy
“Good! Uncle will make the decision then!” Commissioner Yang nodded at Ye Jian in approval. This child was a pool of deep water. Deep water was good. You need to be deep water to go far in life.
Deep waters run silently while shallow waters are noisy. If you want to accomplish great things, you need to learn to let bygones be bygones!
With him being the peacemaker today, even if Yao Jing was unhappy, she had to suppress her emotions! Then the Yao family would not do anything to harm Ye Jian too. Because of the Yang family, they wouldn’t dare to!
Ye Jian had thought of this point too. It was not suitable for the military unit to suppress the Yao family. It would only make the Yao family slightly fearful and they would hold back a little. However, with Commissioner Yang helping her, they must restrain themselves!
Yao Jing would have to accept the decision even if she didn’t want to! She didn’t need to convince Yao Jing. The Yang family would make sure that she was convinced!
“Yao Jing, your dad has helped you to smooth things out now. My slap has dissipated some of the anger in your Auntie Song’s heart and let Ye Jian know what our att.i.tude is. Now, apologize to Ye Jian! Remember, you must apologize. If she tells everyone in school what you did, you’re dead! Your reputation will be all gone!”
Mother Yao warned Yao Jing secretly and reprimanded her. Yao Jing, who was stunned by the slap, had no choice but to accept the fact that she had to apologize to Ye Jian once again.
“Remember that everything we’re doing now is for your own good!”
Yao Jing’s tears had almost dried up. She lowered her head and looked as if she was listening to her mother obediently. But, the shadow in her eyes had become darker. There was a hint of sinister aura in them. She calmed down a little and nodded. “I understand. I understand, Mom.”
“That’s good. That’s good. I knew that my Jingjing is an obedient child. She will not disappoint her parents.” Mother Yao was relieved as she caressed her daughter’s head. She saw the fingermarks she left on her daughter’s delicate face. She slightly regretted how hard she slapped her in a fit of anger.
She just had to put on a show. Why did she slap her daughter for real?
Yao Jing was furious deep down inside. Similarly, Deputy Commissioner Yao wasn’t as calm as he seemed too. However, what could he do? He still had to apologize to Ye Jian over and over again. “I didn’t expect my immature daughter to create trouble for you again. Even until now, I didn’t know what she did.”
What on earth did she do that made a narrow-minded person like you unwilling to let her go?
“It’s not a huge crime. Just now, your daughter has explained everything clearly. I have explained it clearly too. If Deputy Commissioner Yao is still unsure, I can do a simple summary. Your daughter contacted gangsters from outside to teach me a lesson.”
Ye Jian understood what Deputy Commissioner Yao was saying so she replied to him in a calm tone. Her eyes were calm and there was even a smile in them. “Deputy Commissioner Yao, you should be able to understand after I explained, right? If you still don’t, you can ask your daughter how she knew all those gangsters from society.”
Deputy Commissioner Yao was still able to maintain his composure. He sighed and said, “I will ask her clearly after I go back. At first, I thought that she was just young and immature. But, from the looks of it now, I have neglected my duties in teaching her. Student Little Ye, sorry about it. I promised that I won’t cause any more trouble for you but here I am again.”
He spoke with distress and a strong sense of helplessness. He looked at his daughter who didn’t dare to raise her head anymore after what Yang Heng said. All the anger in his heart dissipated.
“Alright. Today, we have to apologize to Yang Heng. He can’t be happy even though it’s his birthday today. How about this, Old Yang, when you are free, our family will visit you and apologize to you again. Tonight, we will leave first. Sigh, I’m still feeling very frustrated now. Children are parents’ past lives’ debt. Sigh…”
