Chapter 1036: A Truth That Can’t Be Changed
The moment she opened her mouth, she made Mother Yao a little embarra.s.sed. “Secretary Xia, to parents, our child is always a child. We won’t think of cla.s.sifying her as a teenager.”
What on earth was Secretary Xia’s relations.h.i.+p with Ye Jian? Why does she speak up for Ye Jian all the time?
In the hospital, she faintly heard Ye Jian calling Secretary Xia ‘Sister Xia’. At that time, she was fuming with anger because of Huiying so she didn’t take note of it properly. Now, when she saw Secretary Xia speaking up for Ye Jian again and again… Mother Yao’s eyelids jumped uncontrollably.
Deputy Commissioner Yao was walking in front so he didn’t notice what happened behind him. He looked at the people on the roof. The night wind was a little cold. However, there was a layer of sweat on his forehead.
The issue was getting more and more out of hand. His confidence was slithering away.
Xia Yiwei walked towards Mother Yao and lifted the corners of her lips slightly. She gave Yao Jing a mysterious smile and said slowly, “Director Li, you must be well-educated. Why do you sound like an illiterate person? In my eyes, Director Li’s child is already an adult.”
“Since she’s an adult, she needs to be responsible for her actions and words. She can’t escape from this because of Director Li’s personal opinion.”
Mother Yao felt a little anxious. Secretary Xia was a little… overbearing.
“No, wait. Secretary Xia, my Jingjing is an immature child. She might look like she’s seventeen years old but she’s no different from a child.”
Her forced explanation caused Xia Yiwei to squint her eyes. She sized up Yao Jing from head to toe a few times and smiled. “I can’t tell. She doesn’t seem mentally handicapped. Director Li, I feel that your daughter is extremely healthy.”
Is she saying that her smart and bright daughter was mentally handicapped? Mother Yao was so angry she couldn’t maintain the expression on her face. She forced herself to smile and explained, “Secretary Xia, my daughter is fine. She’s very healthy.”
“Director Li, aren’t you contradicting yourself? You said that your child is seventeen years old but her actions are no different from a child. Then, you explained that she’s not mentally handicapped. Director Li, are you making a fool of me?”
Xia Yiwei’s face turned cold. She glanced sideways at Mother Yao sharply. There was a strong aura around her. “Since she’s not mentally handicapped, she’s a teenager now! You can have your own opinion but to me, Director Li’s daughter is not a child. She is someone with her own judgment, own thoughts, and a teenager who can act independently!”
“Secretary Xia, my Jingjing…”
“I don’t know how your Jingjing is. I only know that Director Li’s daughter is amazing! She’s so amazing that even when I’m standing here together with you, I can feel chills on my back!” Xia Yiwei wasn’t polite anymore. This student was evil and had a vicious heart. Yet, her parents weren’t educating her. Instead, they covered up for her. Why did she have to be polite with them?
Today, they could bully Ye Jian. Tomorrow, they could bully someone else! Leaving this student here in Provincial No.1 Middle School was a humiliation to the education sector of the Southern Province.
Xia Yiwei’s overbearing att.i.tude made Mother Yao speechless. Why wasn’t her Jingjing a child? She was just an immature child! Even if she’s the secretary of the governor, she couldn’t be so unreasonable.
Xia Yiwei put on a cold face and didn’t want to speak anymore. She sneered at Mother Yao. How was this person able to become the director of a department? She needed to inspect the departments carefully.
After Xia Yiwei left, the policeman that was waiting for Yao Jing’s answer continued speaking, “Yao Jing, you better go and confirm the location. Also, I have to remind you that in our eyes, you’re not a child too. You’re a teenager! A teenager who has her own judgment, thinking, and can act independently.”
