"Yu Captain, my son has already clearly stated he will return the money, yet Miss Su persists, insisting on taking this matter to court. She even claims I haven’t brought up my son properly and slapped him, even though I never caused her any trouble after acknowledging my son was at fault first,"
"So black can be turned into white," Xiaofeng sneered, "I hit him because he bullied my employee, didn’t he?"
Yu Captain didn’t bother with further discussion and asked Manman, "You tell us, what happened?"
Manman recounted the incident once through.
Yu Captain sneered, "Old Yan, you really know how to raise a son. With such behavior, what’s the difference between your son and a robber? Or is it that your own conduct is normally , so your son imitates you, acting like a robber wherever he goes, disrespecting the law and doing whatever he pleases?"
Upon hearing these words, cold sweat formed on Yan Ke’s forehead.
For Yu Captain to have become a major captain at such a young age, his abilities were certainly there, but his family background, that of the Yu Family, was even more impressive, not something most families could compare with.
"Yu Captain, this is a misunderstanding, truly," Yan Ke said, now considering his own position, "What do you think? Is this your idea? Or did they coax you into it? Otherwise, how could you have done such a thing?"
The young man pointed at another tall teenager and said, "It was him, it was his idea."
The other teenagers also spoke in unison, "It was him, it was his idea."
The pointed-at teenager didn’t get angry but merely stood with his hands in his pockets, making no excuses.
In their eyes, he was an illegitimate child and whatever he did would be wrong. If it was him, then so be it. He didn’t care.
"Yu Captain, as you can see, it wasn’t my son’s idea but someone else’s. I know this teenager; he’s an illegitimate child from the Zhong Family, known for his bad character. My son just had the misfortune of making an improper friend. Yu Captain, they are just kids. Perhaps we could consider this a lesson learnt and let it go. What do you say?"
"This isn’t up to me to decide; you’ll have to ask the Young Madam how she wants this settled. The items are from her store, and the person they bullied is her employee," Yu Captain said, sitting down as if disinterested but also making no move to leave.
With his behavior, it was clear to the other officers that Yu Captain was here to support this young woman.
Yu Captain addressed her as the Young Madam. The Young Madam? Could she be from the Gu Family?
"Yu Captain, is she from the Gu Family?" Yan Ke asked cautiously.
"You don’t need to worry about whose family she’s from. Just ask her how she wants to handle this matter," Yu Captain replied, clearly irritable.
"Young Madam, we were wrong. We shouldn’t have behaved like robbers; indeed, I’ve failed in raising my son properly. Rest assured, however much they owe, I’ll compensate tenfold. If he dares to enter your store again and not pay, I’ll personally break his legs," Yan Ke thought. The trouble his son had caused this time was significant.
"You said my son told you to teach him a good lesson, and now you’re talking to me , it feels pretty unfamiliar. Compensation is, of course, certain, and an apology is also necessary, but not to me, to her," Xiaofeng said.
Xiaofeng pointed at Manman, "They need to apologize to her in the same manner that they treated her previously."
The teenager’s face turned red with anger, "Don’t push your luck."
Thinking that just because she had the support of Yu Captain, she could boss him around. He would find a way to regain his ground later.
"You don’t have to apologize if you don’t want to," Yixiao said with a light smile, "Yu Brother, what would happen if someone came into my store and stole something, and then publicly insulted and bullied an employee?"
"Of course, they would be detained for several months," Yu Captain stated directly.
"What if they had connections?" Yixiao raised an eyebrow.
"In my eyes, there’s no such thing as connections," Yu Captain said, his expression cold and unyielding, the aura of justice emanating from him, "It just depends on the severity of the offense."
The young man stiffened, and upon meeting Yu Captain’s cold gaze, subconsciously shrunk his neck.
This Yu Captain was very serious, the kind with an unyielding sense of justice.
