Chapter 1040: She Deserved It Mother Yao fainted. Deputy Commissioner Yao caught his wife as she fell. He didn’t have the extra time to care about his daughter! That was his daughter. How could he give up on her? How could he not care about her? He pressed his wife’s philtrum and shouted her name agitatedly. In an instant, Deputy Commissioner Yao’s back was drenched with sweat. Huge droplets of sweat were falling down his chin. Yao Jing, who was dragged away, started to scream even more miserably when she noticed that her parents didn’t follow her. “... Let me go, let me go. Dad, Mom, come quick! Come quickly! Hurry and save me!” “I’m afraid, Dad, I’m afraid... I’m scared. Mom, I’m scared... Save me, save me. I didn’t do it on purpose... Yang Heng, I didn’t do it on purpose. Forgive me. Please, I beg you to forgive me...” Her pillar of support collapsed when she didn’t see her parents. She kept struggling until she started kicking her legs in the air. She didn’t want to be dragged into the police car. She screamed tragically and asked Deputy Commissioner Yao to save her. Yang Heng, who was sending his parents down the teaching building, said, “Dad, drive slower at night. Mom, don’t be angry anymore. I’m a guy. It’s alright for me to get beaten a few times. It will heal in a few days.” “There’s still half an hour before the evening study session ends. I will return to my classroom.” Yao Jing’s pleas didn’t receive any reactions from Yang Heng. Instead, he felt relieved. He just hoped that his last year in high school would be peaceful. He didn’t want to see Yao Jing again. “Remember to apply medicine before you sleep. If you can’t reach your back, ask your roommate to help.” Mother Yang reminded him and then raised her head to look up the building. Ye Jian can relax now. She didn’t have to worry that Yao Jing would suddenly create trouble for her. Commissioner Yang patted his son’s shoulder and smiled. “Go for your self-study session. Your mom and I will go back first!’ After he finished speaking, he left. In front, Deputy Commissioner Yao, who was pressing on his wife’s philtrum, heard footsteps coming. He immediately turned around. There were tears in his eyes as he spoke to Commissioner Yang and his family in a hoarse voice, “Old Yang, my Jingjing, can you... can you help me?” “That child... that child... that child...” He repeated ‘that child’ three times but he didn’t manage to finish his sentence. He wanted to say that his child didn’t do it on purpose. Her actions weren’t intentional. She was just immature and still young. That was why she made a mistake. He hoped that they could forgive her this time because she was young and immature... These words had always come out of his mouth naturally but now, Deputy Commissioner Yao couldn’t say them anymore. He moved his lips for a long time but in the end, he just let out a long sigh. Commissioner Yang didn’t cause any more harm to the unfortunate man. He sighed too and said, “Old Yao, there’s no need to say anything. When your wife hit my son, did she think about our relationship? She asked my son to pay with his life and said that my son is ungrateful and left her daughter to die.” “If Ye Jian didn’t repeat these words on the roof, Huiying and I won’t know it at all! Old Yao, there’s no use begging my family. I will not help you with this matter. Don’t beg Ye Jian either. Secretary Xia’s attitude is enough to explain everything.” The despair in Deputy Commissioner Yao’s expression became stronger. It’s over. Everything is over. He heard his daughter shouting for him and then shouting for Yang Heng. She even shouted for Old Yang to help her. Two lines of tears fell from his eyes. They were over. Everything had come to an end.
