Chapter 485: Talk of Compensation

Translator: Tuiwen Editor: Tuiwen

Qin Jing clapped her hands and gave him a sarcastic smile. “Fine! So, this is all our fault, then? We’re the ones who spread nasty rumors and played a prank on you, exchange students, is that how it is? Only Yan Wei is pure and innocent in this whole debacle? Ha!

“We will compensate you for the damages, then. Call Yan Weiimmediately and ask her to apologize to us. It was her words that hurt us in the first place and tainted the relationship between the two schools.”

Yang Nian’s expression turned ugly at Qin Jing’s taunts.

“I’m not joking,” he said after a while. “I came to you with the intent to discuss this matter on behalf of the exchange students. Please do take it seriously.”

“Oh, but we’re very serious about this, too!” Qin Jing blinked at him.

This time, Yang Nianturned toYao Tang.

He couldn’t get anywhere with Qin JingandLin Xin. Perhaps it was better to start withYao Tang, after all.

“What do you think?” he asked.

Yao Tang shifted in her seat nonchalantly. “I’ll give you the compensations you need.Yan Weimust apologize.”

Yang Nian’s scowl grew deeper. It was his first time meeting dealing with people who adamantly refused to listen to reason.

The way he saw it, the whole thing would be over if Yao Tangand her friends only apologized. Not only would it saveYan Wei’s reputation, but the Yan family’s as well. Moreover, peace would be restored among the students, and no one would have to suffer anyone’s revenge.

It should have been that easy, killing two birds with one stone and all that.

What bothered him the most was that, even though Yao TangandQin Jingwere clearly in the more vulnerable position, they weren’t keen on compromising to save their hides at all.

......

He might be able to understand Qin Jinga bit, since she was the eldest daughter of the Qin family and had her on pride, but he was stumped when it came toYao Tang.

How could a country bumpkin from a mountain village have so much confidence?

As he pondered her strange calm and her casual attitude, Yang Niansuddenly thought about the man he had met in the restaurant that one time.

He had exuded a similar vibe. Could that person be Yao Tang’s backer?

If it was in the past, Yang Nianwould definitely choose not to interfere in matters that might offend a lot of people.

However, things were different now. His father had called him just yesterday, telling him that their family needed the Yan family’s business connections.

As such, he couldn’t very well ignore what had happened to Yan Wei.

Yang Nian looked at the three girls and tried again.

“What is it that you want? Name it, and we will do our best to satisfy you.

“Whether it’s money or anything else, just name your price. As long as we think it’s reasonable, we would agree to it. If not, we would still be open to negotiations.”

Yao Tang chuckled. She cast him a lazy glance and said. “You say you will give us whatever we want. We wantYan Weito apologize to us.”

Yang Nian scowled again.

He couldn’t help but feel like she was toying with him, like he was a monkey being made to jump through her hoops.

“If you insist on this, then I have no choice but to have a word with your principal. This matter concerns both our schools, after all.”

A pregnant silence fell on them once again. The air felt heavier than before.

As a matter of fact, Principal Konghad come to the scene yesterday, but he did nothing to stop it. If anything, he seemed to have givenMeng Yangthe go signal to proceed.

It was because of his lack of interference that the whole thing was broadcast all over school.

If Yang Niancame toPrincipal Kongnow, he would be no different from a child who came home whining to his father after losing a fight with his playmates.

Worse, said father was already leaning toward Yao Tang’s side.

“If you want to, then you’re welcome to try,” Lin Xincommented.

Her gaze turned sharp as she smirked at Yang Nian.

“We’ve only met a few times before, but I never expected you to have this self-righteous, holier than thou mindset lurking behind your pleasant facade.”
