Chapter 1725: Chapter 1704: Guilt
Gao Yang could swear he heard the most miserable scream in the world.
A direct and high-pitched scream, one mont the silence was unbroken, and suddenly a hair-raising wail erupted from the core, and those making the noise didn’t seem to have any intention of stopping, so the continuous scream didn’t pause after it started.
Gao Yang had heard many screams, and anyone who could scream like that was not going to have a good end, so he didn’t have a particularly strong reaction, but the call he was trying to make wouldn’t go through.
Yakov’s expression couldn’t be described as intoxicated, but he said with a face full of emotion, “It’s been a long ti since I’ve heard such a sound.”
Turning to see the twisted face of Gao Yang, Yakov tilted his head and said, “Can’t get used to it?”
Gao Yang waved his hand and said in a low voice, “No, I’m okay.”
Yakov nodded with a smile, “That’s good, the guys, well, they are old hands now, they haven’t done this for many years, though doing this is like riding a bicycle, once learned, it’s unforgettable. But there’s always the matter of getting proficient, and they need to take this opportunity to get so practice.”
Gao Yang woodenly nodded and said in a low voice, “I can understand.”
After listening intently for a mont, Yakov said softly, “They should stop now, or else the person will pass out, wasting interrogation ti.”
Sure enough, just as Yakov finished speaking, the scream from inside abruptly stopped, so Yakov imdiately smiled and said, “Not bad, they haven’t forgotten everything they learned, the rhythm was well grasped.”
With the screaming stopped, Gao Yang continued to make calls, trying to get in touch with Gelyanov. Yakov said he was already dead, but Gao Yang still wanted to confirm.
Finally, Gao Yang put down the phone, a somber expression on his face as he said to Yakov, “Gelyanov is dead, yesterday afternoon, Gelyanov was shot to death in front of his house.”
Yakov nodded, then imdiately said, “I don’t know how you people handle things, so I have to ask, are his family all dead?”
Gao Yang shook his head, “No, his wife and young son were at ho, they’re fine. His eldest son joined the military, also fine.”
Yakov smiled, “Oh, then it seems the opponent doesn’t want to go all out, he doesn’t want to escalate the war. In accordance to the principle of reciprocity, when you retaliate, you also have to hold back.”
Gao Yang wore a gloomy face; he couldn’t find it in him to smile. He could only let out a long sigh, then helplessly punched the couch.
Yakov curled his lips and loudly said, “Are you feeling guilty?”
After thinking for a mont, Gao Yang said in a low voice, “Yes.”
“Why do you feel guilty?”
Gao Yang shook his head with a sigh, “I feel this is my fault. If only Grand Ivan were here, or if Andre hadn’t died, maybe this wouldn’t have happened.”
Yakov pointed at Gao Yang, nodding, “It is indeed your fault, you could say you got Gelyanov killed. When you realized there was a mole and that they had betrayed your whereabouts leading to an ambush, you should have reacted quickly, but you didn’t.”
Gao Yang exhaled and said in a low voice, “Yes, Djo has been looking for , and I’ve been looking for him. During this ti, I hid very well, and Djo made no moves, which made lower my guard, and after the attack, I should have realized that the situation had changed, he started launching full-scale attacks. At the least, I should have warned others to be more vigilant, but I didn’t. Fuck, it’s all my fault.”
Yakov laughed, then said in a kind tone, “You made a mistake, and you feel guilty, but why are you showing it? Why do you want to know that you’re feeling guilty? Why are you letting it show that you’re regretful and annoyed? This isn’t good; you should control your emotions, at least don’t let others see it.”
Gao Yang sighed and said in a low voice, “Does it matter? People are dead.”
Yakov said seriously, “You’re the boss, you hold the lives of many people in your hands, you have a heavy burden. Whether what you’ve done is right or wrong, you can’t let others question you, especially your subordinates questioning any decision you make. If you did it wrong and got your n killed, that’s your problem. If you did it right and brought them wealth, that’s also your problem. You don’t need your subordinates’ praise, nor do you need them pointing fingers at your decisions, especially not questioning you. You only need them to respect you, to unconditionally obey your orders, whether right or wrong. Otherwise, how can you continue being a boss?”
After speaking very seriously, Yakov gently said, “In short, you’re not a boss; you’re the big boss who leads people through life and death. Since they’ve followed you, they must accept danger as a companion. When you bring them wealth, they should also bear the risk you present to them. It’s very fair, don’t let anyone question you, so you are right whether you’re right or wrong, still right!”
Gao Yang didn’t agree with Yakov’s view, but he pondered over Yakov’s words.
Yakov smiled, then sat a bit, and in a low voice said, “People need to experience setbacks to grow. It’s not to say one must go through setbacks and failures, but there is no doubt that setbacks and failures allow people to grow more quickly. Ram, you are still young; you have ti, and you have the capital to make mistakes. So what’s a little mistake once in a while? Why keep it on your mind?”
Gao Yang said in a low voice, “But people die when I make mistakes. I can’t make mistakes; I can’t afford them.”
Yakov said sternly, “You’re that confident? Are you a god? Otherwise, how do you dare say you won’t make mistakes? I’ve t so many big figures; I’ve experienced three presidents, six directors. Every big shot I’ve seen makes mistakes, as do I, as do the people under . Who hasn’t made mistakes? What are you that dare say you’ll never make mistakes?”
Gao Yang nodded and said in a low voice, “I understand.”
Yakov waved with a smile, “What’s happened has happened, what you should consider is how to clean up instead of feeling guilty, you simply don’t have ti for guilt, what do you plan to do now?”
Gao Yang loudly said, “Punish the traitor, then of course reward the loyal. Gelyanov’s assassination shows he chose loyalty. I want to reward him, reward his family, send his family to a safe place, give them a large sum of money. He has a wife and two sons, I plan to give them three million dollars.”
Yakov imdiately shook his head, “No, wrong, the reward is too little. Are you rich? You should be very wealthy, right? Then you should give a real large sum, I think ten million dollars is more appropriate, and you must let all your subordinates know, Collins betrayed you, so he and his family died. Gelyanov chose loyalty, so he died, but his family will get the best protection. You need this contrast, so in so ways, Gelyanov’s death is quite beneficial to you.”
