Chapter 1017: An Ulterior Motive

Apologize to Yao Jing… Yang Heng felt his stomach churning.

“Yao Jing, do you just want Yang Heng’s apology?” Ye Jian didn’t let Yang Heng open his mouth immediately. Her eyes were s.h.i.+ning brightly as she smiled gently and asked her, “Think about it carefully. Do you just want Yang Heng’s apology?”

“He owes me!” Yao Jing’s expression was exceptionally calm now. Her eyes were bloodshot and her gaze was eerie. “He owes me! What does it have to do with you?”

Ye Jian smiled. “That’s right. You know that it has nothing to do with me so why did you ask me to come over?”

“You have nothing to do with the business between Yang Heng and me. But, I have things to settle with you!” Yao Jing bent her back slightly. Maybe it was because she stood for too long so when she lowered her back, her body swayed slightly. Mother Yao’s shrill scream was heard. “What are the two of you talking about? What are you talking about? Are you trying to harm my daughter?”

Father Yao wasn’t able to remain composed now too. His calves were shaking as he took a few steps forward. “Jingjing, let’s talk properly. Can you give them your hand? Can the three of you talk calmly?”

The most important thing was to coax their daughter to come down. Yao Jing was a stubborn person. If she really takes matters to heart, she might jump.

“You like Yang Heng so you asked him to keep his distance from me. Ye Jian, do you like Yang Heng because of his family background? I have seen many ladies like you!” Yao Jing got a fright too so she hurriedly stabilized herself. She learned dancing before so her sense of balance was not bad. After swaying slightly, she stood still.

Yang Heng got impatient. “What on earth do you want? Give me your hand! Hurry!” He took a step forward and almost managed to grab Yao Jing’s ankle. He almost pulled her down directly.

“Once I stood here, I never thought of going down! Hurry up and apologize to me! Apologize to me loudly!” Yao Jing moved towards the edge of the roof to prevent Yang Heng from pulling her back. “You made me sad for more than ten days. You ignored me for so long and even avoided me purposely. Yang Heng, I want you to apologize to me! I want you to promise that you will not ignore me in the future!”

“Hurry up and say it! Hurry up and promise me! If not, I will jump now!” Yao Jing lifted one leg up. From her looks, everyone thought that she had lost her rationale.

Yao Jing’s mother felt her vision turning black. She cried until she was unable to make any sounds. She only knew that everyone must relent to her daughter. “Yang Heng, I’m begging you. Can I beg you to apologize to her? You have known each other for more than ten years. Can you give in to Jingjing like how you always did when you’re young?”

Mother Yao wasn’t the only one persuading Yang Heng. The teachers were persuading him too… Why did he need to apologize to Yao Jing? Honestly, none of them knew as well.

But, from the looks of it, they felt that it was the students’ puppy love gone wrong.

There was a commotion behind her but Ye Jian remained very calm. She stared intently at Yao Jing’s right foot that was standing on the ground firmly.

Even when she lifted her left leg, her right leg was stable and didn’t tremble at all. The back of her feet leaned tightly against the reinforcement bar that was only 4 cm in height. The reinforcing bar was embedded on the side of the roof. Yao Jing used this method to stabilize her body.

This meant that Yao Jing had some foundation. Did she learn dancing in the past? If she was a dancer, it wasn’t a surprise that she dared to stand on the roof and claim that she wanted to jump. Her balancing skills were strong and she had a pivotal point. Thus, she wouldn’t fall easily.

After hearing what she had to say, Ye Jian lifted the corners of her lips slightly. Just like what she expected, Yao Jing was using this method to force Yang Heng to give in to her. She was trying to tie Yang Heng and her together so that in the future, the entire school would know that they were together.
