The police car drove ahead, and the sirens sounded loud as if the whole city could hear them.
After getting in the car, Yao Jing became unusually very calm, but her fingertips trembled slightly. She did not dare to talk to her parents, and she did not dare to raise her head because the sitting opposite of her was a policeman with a serious face.
“What the heck. How could even Xia Yiwei, the secretary of the governor, know Ye Jian? It makes me so mad. Ugh, I really want to slap that arrogant face of her just now!”
In the ward, Mrs. Yao did not say a word. Although she was the office director, she couldn’t compare it to Xia Yiwei. The difference was that she had no qualifications to speak up to her.
Even her husband, Deputy Director Yao, didn’t say a word earlier.
Mrs. Yao dared not speak up when Xia Yiwei was around, but she dared to talk, now that she was in the police car.
“Shut your mouth. It’s obvious that Secretary Xia is here to support Ye Jian.” It was better to speak less in front of the police. Deputy Director Yao was much more cautious than his wife. He was really afraid that the policeman sitting across from them would write down what they said and report it to Xia Yiwei.
He didn’t know Ye Jian’s background, but one thing was certain that she had a good relationship with Secretary Xia.
Mrs. Yao felt very angry. She couldn’t bear the embarrassment after being slapped by Mrs. Yang, and when she could finally teach Ye Jian a lesson, who knew that Secretary Xia would suddenly show up. This made her suppress her anger even more. She really couldn’t hold back her anger.
Now she was told to keep quiet in the police car.
Mrs. Yao frowned and said angrily, “I’m holding back my grievances now. If you don’t let me vent, I will go crazy.” While speaking, she grabbed her daughter, Yao Jing’s hand, and suddenly said, “Jing Jing, why is your hand so cold?”
It was so cold as if she was holding a piece of ice. There was no warmth in Yao Jing’s palm at all.
Deputy Director Yao also grabbed his daughter’s hand quickly. He frowned tightly, “Are you cold? Do you want a jacket?”
Her body was not cold; her heart was.
Yao Jing looked up; her lips trembled slightly as she asked her father softly, “Father, I want to know if Secretary Xia is more powerful than you or not.”
She asked very softly because she was afraid of being heard by the police sitting opposite.
“Secretary Xia is someone from the governor. We can’t say that she’s better than us, but she is closer to the center of power. I’ve only seen the governor a few times a year, but she is next to the governor every day, and the officials she interacts with daily are all extraordinary.” Deputy Director Yao didn’t lie to his daughter about certain things in the government. It was also good for her to know some government rules, like who she couldn’t offend and who she should be careful of.
Yao Jing felt her breathing was a little uneven. Both her hands trembled even more. She panicked, “Father, is Secretary Xia here to support Ye Jian? What should I do? What should we do?”
What should we do? Can we still say that it was Ye Jian that pushed me down?
“We’ll talk about it when we get out of the car.” Deputy Director Yao sighed as he exchanged glances with his wife secretly. It would take a lot of effort to resolve the matter. He really hoped that Secretary Xia wouldn’t take the matter too seriously, seeing how Yao Jing was still a child.
