Ye Jian, who was not afraid at all, pursed her lips and smiled slightly: “Aunty, I’m not afraid, I’m confident of the things that I’m sure of, so I’ll not be afraid. As for things that I’m not sure or not confident in, I won’t use excuses like “I only saw it, but I don’t know what exactly happened” to put the blame on others and steer myself clear.”
Yao Jing clenched her fists tightly when she heard the word “report to police”, she grasped Deputy Director Yao’s arm, her lips trembled slightly, but her voice was still calm when she said: “Father, you can’t let her call the police. Ask Mother to calm down, and she mustn’t make things any more worse. I know you and Mother are reluctant to watch me being accused, but it is indeed my fault to have brought this trouble on to you and Mother.”
She was just a child, but she was a sly student who was usually not afraid of things. If something was about to happen, there was no reason not to be scared.
Although Yao Jing was afraid, she would not hide behind her parents because of fear.
The police were the last thing she wanted to see and what she feared most.
Once the police report was lodged, based on Luo Ran’s manner, he would definitely admit to the police all the things she said and the ideas she had before, to clear himself away from her!
Even if Luo Ran did not admit it, Luo Ran’s parents would surely find a way to force him to accept it!
Deputy Director Yao’s heart smashed down like a boulder, hearing his daughter’s words, he could not help closing his eyes slightly.
“You are too anxious, Jing Jing.”
Too anxious, too narrow-minded, too eager to be successful!
Yao Jing pursed her lips, there were tears in her eyes, “Father, I didn’t expect her to be so ruthless, she didn’t even bother to give me any chance! I didn’t think she would be like this, and I really didn’t!” She really did not expect Ye Jian to mention the police, and she, even more, did not expect Uncle Yang’s family to stand by Ye Jian’s side.
Yao Jing took a deep breath and gently pulled her mother, “Mother, keep quiet first, I’ll handle it. This is my business with Ye Jian, and I can’t let you get involved in this. This is my business.”
“Jing Jing!” Mrs. Yao, who was initially full of confidence, suddenly felt her heart sink upon hearing her daughter’s words, “What is it that you’re hiding from us!”
“It’s between Ye Jian and me. I hid it from you and Father; please calm down.”
Mrs. Yao felt heartache and bitter at the same time after listening to Yao Jing.
Her daughter was, in fact, sensible, but Ye Jian was a powerful opponent. Her daughter had no ability to deal with her at all. It was already considered a defeat.
“How did I know that you asked Yang Heng to go out to fight? The reason is straightforward Because I know you made an appointment with Luo Ran to fight in the back alley of Pub Street.” Yao Jing stood up and walked towards Ye Jian, she stood in front of her and straightened her back, then she said coldly and in a delicate voice: “Because of this, I guess Yang Heng and them went out to fight.”
Ye Jian smiled, “No wonder. No wonder as soon as I walked out of the banquet hall, I saw Luo Ran appearing in the hotel with tens of his rascals. I don’t even have to rush over purposely, so it was you who reported it. No wonder, for the most of the month, you hide away from me when you see me in school. You’re afraid that I would suspect you.”
“It’s unfortunate. Yao Jing, you plot wisely, but it is still wrong.”
“Ye Jian, stop quibbling, you led a group of boys out to fight, are you so shameless?”
Jing, you little lass, you’re so sure that Heng Heng went out to fight? You’re so confident that Ye Jian provoked those bad guys, and dragged Heng Heng into the fight?
