Chapter 12 Make Concessions
When they entered the hall, the atmosphere was extremely depressing. Sheldon, the head of the Lewis family, was sitting in the chair angrily with David, who had been beaten badly. Austin Long frowned and was worried.
"Father, Yank is here. You have to avenge me!" David was the first to see Yank. He felt the coldness in Yank's eyes. He was stunned and immediately hid behind Sheldon and shouted.
Seeing that his son was afraid, Sheldon was also a little confused about Yank. The whole Bayland City knew that he was a famous good-for-nothing of the Long family, but now it seemed that he was not like this at all.
Even he couldn't stand Yank's aggressive eyes.
But after all, he was the head of the Lewis family. He was surprised and immediately returned to normal. He glared at Yank and quickly said to Austin, "Austin, now the culprit is back. I dare ask you to justify." Austin narrowed his eyes slightly. He knew that Sheldon was testing his attitude. If he couldn't handle it well, the two families might become enemies.
"Yank, you came back just in time. Tell us, why you hit David?" Austin asked in a firm voice, giving Yank a meaningful look.
The meaning was also very obvious. Austin let Yank take the initiative to apologize to David. Then this matter was considered over.
But Yank didn't accept.
As the Prince of the House family, he had never submitted to others.
"Grandpa, before I answer, I would like to ask you, what is the family motto of our Long family?" Yank bowed to Austin and asked with a smile.
Austin was stunned. Why did Yank mention this at this time?
"It seems that Grandpa has forgotten something. It doesn't matter. As a member of the Long family, we should help when we see injustice." Yank answered directly.
Then his attitude suddenly changed, and his sharp eyes directly locked on David, who was standing behind Sheldon. "Today, I happened to meet David, who incited his men to beat an old man, and even tried to rob the girl. Therefore, I came forward to stop him. At first, I didn't hit him. I just persuaded him to leave with his men, but who knew..."
Yank deliberately paused and looked at the reactions of the two heads. He found that they were both gloomy. He sneered and continued to say, "But when David saw me, he not only insulted me, but also wanted to do something to Lucy. The most important thing is that he asked his men to hit first. Grandpa, please tell me if there is anything wrong with fighting back."
Although he couldn't get rid of Austin, Yank decided to let him grow unease.
"Yank, you're right!" Austin said with a wry smile.
Austin did understand Yank's meaning. Yank passed the buck to him. If he said something wrong, he would admit that the motto of the Long family was bullshit, which he was wrong as the head. As for he said it was right, it was even more impossible. That was to admit that David's bullying of men and women was reasonable.
Now he had no choice but to drop in Yank's trap. He had not found that thing yet, and that person had not yet appeared, so Yank could be safe, and cannot let other families know Yank's real identity. "David, is what Yank said true?" Austin asked with a kind smile.
Sheldon was gloomy. He turned back and glared at David and scolded, "Austin is asking you a question. Answer!"
Before he came here, Sheldon was so angry that he didn't ask too much. Then He took his son to the Long Family's house to denounce Yank, but he didn't expect the fact was this, which made him shameful. David didn't dare look at his father's face. He lowered his head and said in a low voice, "Yes, but Yank's hit is too heavy. My hand still hurts!"
Austin nodded in agreement and said, "It makes sense. Well, we can sell the land in the east, now as our apology, to your family. I will definitely discipline Yank strictly and not let him be so impulsive." Sheldon also understood what Austin meant. It was impossible for them to apologize. This land was equivalent to compensation.
Although he was still unhappy, the Lewis family's foundation was still a little inferior to that of the Long family. It was not the time for them to break up with each other. He only had some resentment in his heart. He would not let this matter go so easily!
"Okay, then I'll thank Austin first." Sheldon forced a smile. He glanced at Yank, and snorted coldly, then left with his men.
After the Lewis family left, Lucy was very angry when she saw Yank's indifferent attitude. She kicked him and said angrily, "Grandpa not only gave them a land to help you but also became enemies with the Lewis family. Shouldn't you say thank you?"
"Forget it, Lucy. Yank didn't do anything wrong. David has long been notorious. It's reasonable to teach him a lesson. I don't think Sheldon is such a narrow-minded person. This matter is over." Austin said in a friendly manner.
Yank sneered. It seemed that this old man was really hard to deal with.
Austin was almost canny!
Seeing that Yank was still indifferent, Lucy turned her head and walked out of the hall angrily. Yank's eyes suddenly became cold. After looking at Austin for a while, Yank turned around and chased after her. When she arrived at the door, Lucy was a little angry and said, "Yank, I don't want to beg you for anything, but please don't make trouble for the Long family in the future for grandpa's sake."
"This is what he should do." Yank's gaze turned cold as he spoke in a low voice.¶¶¶¶¶¶¶¶¶¶
