Chapter 852 - Two-faced
Commissioner Yang had to be the peacemaker. It wasn’t a smart move to break the ties between him and the Yao family because of their children’s matter. As a government official, they could fall apart because of business matters but if they became enemies because of personal matters, they were too narrow-minded.
Thus, Commissioner Yang said, “Sure, let’s go over there and have a chat. I really worry for you too. This matter was actually quite easy to deal with but look at this…” As he spoke, he walked towards the sofa situated in the lobby. His voice also faded slowly.
Yang Heng, who was standing on Ye Jian’s right side, whispered, “My dad has stepped in. This matter might end tonight. Yao Jing won’t be kicked out of the school like Ye Ying. My dad will probably spoil your plan.”
“What makes you think that I want Yao Jing to leave school?” Ye Jian pursed her lips and smiled. Her eyes curved into a crescent. No shadows could be seen in her eyes that were as clear as water. Yang Heng didn’t understand what she meant.
Ye Jian glanced at Yao Jing who was pretending to be a quail and trying her best to calm down. Her smile turned a little icy as she said calmly, “Yao Jing isn’t Ye Ying. We can’t use the same method to tackle her. Yao Jing is good at enduring. She won’t jump out like Ye Ying. Ye Ying loved to create trouble so I needed to make her leave the school as soon as possible.”
“You mean that it’s safer to keep Yao Jing in school?”
“That’s right. The school will keep her within bounds. She’s an arrogant person so she’ll be afraid that I will make a huge scene. She’s afraid of being looked down upon by other people. She’s afraid of being called two-faced. After what happens today, she’ll at least be more obedient in school.”
After she finished speaking, Yang Heng gave her a thumbs-up. “Amazing! I have known Yao Jing for so many years but I don’t know how to deal with her. You have only known her for slightly more than a month and yet, you have already found her weakness. That’s amazing, Ye Jian.”
The boy’s smile was clean. It was like the sunlight reflected on the pond in summer. It was so refreshing Ye Jian couldn’t help but smile along with him.
The character of a child depends on the education of the family. Yang Heng was a capable person and his personality was clean. He has his methods but he doesn’t want to use sinister means to achieve what he wants. It was a good choice to make friends with such a young man.
Yao Jing, who was hiding behind her mother, had shadows in her eyes when she saw the two of them whispering to each other. There seemed to be no light in her eyes. It was full of darkness. Even her core was filled with evil thoughts.
This kind of person was very scary. They had a certain amount of ability and a nimble brain. They liked to calculate against other people in secret, like a venomous snake hiding among the bushes. They made people shudder in fright.
At first, there was just one argument going on but now, it has become two. Mother Yao kept apologizing to Mother Yang while Deputy Commissioner Yao sat down on the sofa and started sighing with a frustrated expression.
“Old Yang, sorry to let you see such a commotion. I feel embarrassed!” Deputy Commissioner Yao raised his hand and knocked his forehead lightly. He started complaining about his dilemma. “Jingjing is my only daughter. How can I bear to let her suffer? Today, Yang Heng’s words reminded me that my daughter is my baby but other people’s children are their babies too.”
Commissioner Yang rarely interfered with family matters. He allowed his wife to handle all of them. Hence, when he heard this, he just smiled and replied, “This is this; that is that. You know that I never interfere with my child’s matters. Hence, I will never interfere in the matters between the children.”
“Old Yao, you and your wife came from the education system. I still remembered how righteous you were when you reprimanded a child that stole something in the past. But, when it comes to your own daughter… Sigh, let’s not talk about this.”
