Xu Manman covered her lower abdon on cue, as if a life was already growing there.
Duan Qingi said unhappily, "Captain, so people are self-indulgent, but you can’t lump all of us educated youth together. Those shaless ones have nothing to do with us."
She felt incredibly unlucky to be living with these people, experiencing two ssy scandals in a row, ruining the reputation of the educated youth.
If she had money, she would move out of the educated youth settlent as well.
Chen Dewen urged from the side, "Captain, why not take so ti to criticize them? What do you all think?"
"Good!"
The mbers agreed aloud, regardless of whether the criticism would happen or not, they at least needed to show their stance. If it did happen, attending a eting was far more enjoyable and exhilarating than rushing harvests.
Xu Manman was trembling all over; her face was pale as she shook her head desperately, "No, no, don’t, Brother Chengxu, say sothing, quick, tell them, we already have an engagent."
Jiang Chengxu had been silent all this ti, he was waiting, waiting for Xu Qinghuan’s arrival. He wanted to ask if Xu Qinghuan had a hand in this, he wanted an answer from her.
Xu Qinghuan finally arrived, and upon seeing the scene before her, she was visibly taken aback and then looked towards Qiao Xinyu, her gaze asking, what happened?
Qiao Xinyu chuckled quietly, "Caught in an affair, in the wild, who knows who exposed it. Soone set fire to the haystack, and everyone saw it."
Xu Qinghuan smiled slightly, a playful look appearing in her clear eyes, and said nonchalantly,
"What’s the need for this, when both parties are unmarried? If you want, just hold a ceremony, but maybe so people just like the thrill of sneaking around!"
"Hahaha!" Everyone burst into laughter.
Jiang Chengxu was furious and shouted sharply, "Xu Qinghuan, was it you?"
Xu Qinghuan raised her chin, "Was it what?"
Her eyes filled with provocation, "Was it who had you lay heaven as the cover and earth as the mat, consummating your union in the wild, enjoying the fish-water love?"
Her sneer was blatant.
"Manman and I were outside Jiang Xingye’s house, we ran into you, exchanged a few words, and then..., can you deny you had a hand in it?
You’re a doctor, if you can save lives, you can harm them too!" Jiang Chengxu was certain that Xu Qinghuan had tampered with sothing.
Xu Qinghuan sneered coldly, "Go ahead and report it then, let the police investigate. You’ve done such a scandalous thing, let’s see if it was really . If they can’t find any evidence, I’ll sue you for slander!"
The pair was like two disgusting toads, utterly repulsive to her.
Xu Manman’s clothes were torn, she crossed her arms over her chest, hair disheveled, eyes downcast, tears streaming down her face, looking extrely pitiful.
Xu Hongtu took off his clothes and draped them over Xu Manman, landing a punch on Jiang Chengxu, "I don’t care what your excuse is, give an answer now, do you want to live or die?"
Xu Manman rushed over, blocking in front of Jiang Chengxu, pleading, "Brother, don’t do this, it’s not even our fault, we, we don’t even know what happened!"
Could it really have been Xu Qinghuan who tampered with sothing?
Xu Hongtu looked at Xu Qinghuan with murderous eyes, "How could you do such a vicious thing? Do you have no conscience, Manman is your sister, how could you harm her like this?"
Xu Qinghuan raised an eyebrow, "Xu Manman, if you don’t want to marry Jiang Chengxu, you can accuse him of being a scoundrel..."
"No, I can’t harm Brother Chengxu!" Xu Manman’s eyes were filled with deep emotion, fearing others wouldn’t know her feelings, "I can’t sar him, I can’t harm him!"
Xu Qinghuan said, "So you’re saying you consented to this?"
Xu Manman was about to nod when Jiang Chengxu interrupted her, his voice piercing, "Xu Qinghuan, are you satisfied now? Look at what has happened, are you finally satisfied? Did you do all this for him?"
He pointed at Jiang Xingye, "In the end, you’re just a vain little person, did you really think I’d believe you liked him? Did you know sothing, is that why you’re plotting against us, just to get rid of ?"
Xu Qinghuan was baffled but stood stunned, not noticing the hidden, quietly heartbroken gaze Jiang Xingye cast upon her.
He lowered his eyes, hesitated for a mont, then smiled wryly to himself. Indeed, there was nothing about him worth her affection.
Jiang Xingye stepped forward, pulling Xu Qinghuan behind him, "What’s the point in spewing all this nonsense? Either the team gives you a break, letting you marry on the spot."
Xu Manman looked sorrowfully at Jiang Chengxu; his expression changed a hundred tis over, and after what seed like an eternity, she saw Jiang Chengxu close his eyes, finally conceding, "Then let’s get married!"
Xu Manman secretly sighed in relief, a joyful smile appearing on her face, "Brother Chengxu, don’t be sad, in the future... no matter what you want to do, I’ll support you!"
Jiang Chengxu understood her aning, that in the future, if he wanted a divorce, she would grant it.
He couldn’t help but feel moved, but he truly did not want to marry Xu Manman; a life he dread of had clearly told him that Xu Manman was insufficient in both grandeur and talent to be a wife.
She could be a shadowy support but lacked the qualification to stand by his side.
Xu Manman walked over to Xu Qinghuan, whispering, "Sister, thank you!"
Then, she provocatively smiled at Xu Qinghuan, "In the future, out of today’s kindness, I’ll try to secure a chance for you to return to the city."
Xu Qinghuan pinched her fingers, restraining the urge to slap her because with just one side of her face left, if she were to slap her again, she’d be unrecognizable.
"No need, let’s talk after you successfully marry into the Jiang Family!" Xu Qinghuan smiled slightly.
Xu Manman had been showing off in front of Xu Qinghuan, but she was a step too slow. By the ti she returned to the educated youth settlent, the door to the female educated youth’s side was shut.
The door was closed by Lu Nianying, and Xu Manman knocked outside for half the day, but no one ca to open the door for her.
Jiang Chengxu heard all this from the room opposite, lying on the bed motionless like a dead dog.
Xu Hongtu reached to grab Jiang Chengxu by the collar, but Jiang Chengxu raised his hand to block, "You better not touch !"
"Manman got bullied, and you’re just lying there?" Xu Hongtu roared.
Jiang Chengxu sat up, "I was out today on business, why did she follow ? If she hadn’t followed , would this have happened?"
Xu Hongtu was extrely shocked, only now realizing the kind of person Jiang Chengxu was. After a long while, he said, "I finally understand why Qinghuan wanted to break the engagent with you. Jiang Chengxu, you son of a b****, now what’s the use of blaming anyone else?"
Jiang Chengxu was silent, it’s indeed useless. If he couldn’t marry Xu Qinghuan, the Jiang Family wouldn’t provide him resources, how would he return to the city?
If he couldn’t go back, was he expected to stay here for a lifeti?
Never before had he regretted getting entangled with Xu Manman, never before had he so clearly realized that Xu Manman had ulterior motives all along.
But it was all too late now.
