If Yao Jian hadn't stepped forward and apologized to Ye Jian1Ye JianProtagonist and the Child of a Late Heroine, Ye Jian would have laughed her words off and wouldn't have been too concerned about it.
However, she had deliberately stood forward to apologize, and did not even mention any words that were similar to her mother's, like asking me for forgiveness or something. That only explained one thing, Yao Jing's was much more shrewd and better at scheming.
She knew it very well that once she did something wrong, she should apologize immediately. She wouldn't allow a minor mistake cost her, and would not cause herself more trouble by trying to save a little at the cost of more.
The reason she stood up and apologized was that she knew that she was wrong, and she's not compelling Ye Jian to accept it. As long as she had apologized, even if Ye Jian was still angry, isn't it outrageous if she went looking for trouble against Yao Jing?
That won't happen, Ye Jian wouldn't do that. If she had done that, then it would only seem that she was quite a petty person.
Take a look at Ye Ying, every one of her plans and schemes were straight and direct. As long as she thinks she stands a little bit of chance, she'll jump into the fray and forget Ye Zifan's warning immediately. She was utterly oblivious to the fact that there was still a need to make detailed arrangements even after grabbing hold of an opportunity.
Although she had got better at scheming after all these years. In the end, she had met her defeat because of her limited knowledge. Due to her familial environment, besides the fact that she can act proud for a short moment, after that, she would cause herself to be stuck in a hard place.
However, Yao Jing was different. With her standing forward and apologizing, at the very least, Princ.i.p.al Cao's and Teacher Tong's complexion had eased quite a bit.
Teacher Tong, who hadn't spoken the whole time, glanced at Ye Jian. She spoke with a hopeful tone: "Since Yao Jing has admitted her mistake of her own accord, and taking the fact that she hadn't known that your mother was a late war hero into consideration, you should forgive her this time."
"Yes yes, yes, student Ye Jian, although Yao Jing's temper is usually quite big, she hadn't offended the parents of any student. Would you please forgive her just this once? Uncle and Aunty will guarantee things like this wouldn't happen ever again!" Yao Jing's mother had a motherly heart. She felt bad because her daughter's face was swollen from being slapped,but she had indeed made a mistake and said something that shouldn't be said. There's no other way than to silently accept the slapping.
Political Commissar Yan took a glance at the girl who was apologizing while standing in the center. He let out a soft sigh and stood up, he walked beside Ye Jian and patted her shoulder and said with a heavy expression: "Our good la.s.s, you should forgive her just this once. We all know that no matter how badly someone treats you, as long as they hadn't mentioned your parents, you would always treat them leniently and not argue about it with them."
"This kind of thing, Commander Liu and I both know that Yao Jing had indeed hurt you, but kid, you must remember this: the most hurtful weapon in this world is the 'sword' in one's mouth. You need to learn how to adequately protect yourself and put your mentality on a moderate level. That way, even if the 'swords' were the sharpest and pointiest, they would never hurt you."
That's why they said kids without parents have a hard time moving forward. There are no adults to protect them, and they had to use their thin and frail body to withstand against the hurtful people and things. If the military didn't take care of her more, the life of this kid would be more tiresome than this.
Ye Jian, who sat down with her back straight, heard his words. She raised her head to look at Political Commissar Yan, who was concerned about her. She did not speak and only nodded gently, indicating that she had remembered his words in her heart.
Regimental Commander Liu was staring sharply at Yao Jing's parents, and he bellowed: "Little la.s.s Jian must've suffered some heartache, so I do not think she will accept Vice Minister Yao's daughter's apology anytime soon. You should allow for this la.s.s' heart to calm down. When she feels better, she will naturally accept your daughter's apology."
In the military, the political commissar and the regimental commander were used to acting good cop-bad cop. When the mother-daughter pair were coordinating with each other, both of them were also cooperating in tacit understanding.
