Chapter 316: Chapter 316 Scumbag and Cheap Woman
With that remark, the woman’s face looked even worse, because she didn’t know how to refute Gu Pan’s words, but she didn’t want to lose face like this.
Wen Zhu realized that the situation was not as she had anticipated, but as more and more people gathered around, she knew her strengths.
Her eyes were bloodshot with tears streaming down as she latched onto the woman’s hand, “Auntie, it’s all my fault. I made you lose face. Please don’t stand up for anymore. It’s all because of . I shouldn’t have gone to watch them practice, nor should I have imagined that I could learn a thing or two; and even less should I have accidentally slipped.”
With these words, the onlookers began to talk among themselves.
Gu Pan couldn’t help but laugh, walking over to Wen Zhu and slapping her across the face, “This slap is to remind you to never talk nonsense and soil our reputation again. Why did you need to get so close to watch others practice? Can’t see from the side? Wanted to learn self-defense, don’t they have training at the base? Why not go there instead of seeking soone else’s husband to teach you? And you, a grown person, falling over on flat ground; if that wasn’t intentional, then you really should consider seeing a doctor, shouldn’t you?”
Initially, everyone was sowhat angry at Gu Pan for hitting soone, but after hearing what she said, the murmurs grew louder.
Indeed, without these explanations, they would have truly thought that the woman had been bullied based on the earlier narrative. But with the wife’s rebuttal, who couldn’t understand? Every point she made was clear and unassailable.
Wen Zhu covered her face, stunned. She had not expected Gu Pan to hit her. No matter what, one shouldn’t resort to violence.
Looking aggrieved, she turned to Lu Ruisheng, “You’re all being too bullying.”
Lu Ruisheng seed to understand why the woman was accusing him in this manner, and with full sarcasm, he said, “Aren’t you being slapped because you deserved it for your loose tongue?”
For a mont, Wen Zhu didn’t know what to say and her tears continued to flow.
The woman who had been listening to Gu Pan was also conflicted. But she didn’t want to admit that the person she was defending had ill intentions; otherwise, wouldn’t that an she couldn’t tell right from wrong?
Thus, the woman could only retort with her neck stiffened, “Why are you making it so complicated? It’s the apocalypse. The girl is just admiring your husband’s skills; why must you think so badly of people?”
Duan Shui stepped forward, arms crossed, looking at the woman. “If we were to send a young bride to your old man to learn square dancing with him, would you be frying her a few dishes every day?”
This comnt made the surrounding onlookers laugh; the discussion had a jovial tone. Indeed, as the woman had said, how weird would it be to just place soone beside your loved one? What kind of situation was that?
Lu Xuerong’s personality differed from Duan Shui’s. Seeing that the ti was about right, she also stepped forward and addressed the crowd, “I believe all of us here are dignified people. Even though we live in a communal dormitory, it doesn’t an we don’t have our own lives. In the apocalypse, who dares to casually accept strangers without knowing their background? Don’t you agree?”
Her words were t with the agreent of most people. They felt the sa, especially those who had their families and friends to stick with. They didn’t hope for soone new to join suddenly, nor dare to entrust their backs to strangers.
The woman’s face could no longer hold pride, “All of you are ganging up on us, squeezing us out, outnumbering us – isn’t that a bit too much?”
Gu Pan looked at her, “How have we bullied you? Isn’t it you who have been morally blackmailing and pressuring us?”
Indeed, it was clear to everyone that over this period, Gu Pan and her group had only been retaliating and had never been the aggressors.
At that mont, Cheng Yang said, “To be honest, when that woman suddenly fell towards us earlier, it really gave us quite a scare. In the apocalypse, you’ve got to have a sense of danger. What if she was soone who had gone crazy?”
Cheng Lang added, “Yeah, yeah, we’ve survived for quite so ti outside the base, so our sense of crisis is especially strong. That person suddenly leaning towards us from behind, if it weren’t for being in the base, my brother wouldn’t have held back. He would have turned around and given her a kick, and that woman would be seeing her great-grandmother by now.”
The people who were originally laughing were now laughing even harder because of Chen Lang’s comnt. Seeing her great-grandmother, that kid is just too funny.
There Wen Zhu was, surrounded by all these people, her face beet red, but remarkably she kept her cool, “I’m sorry, today was all my fault, I apologize to you all.” After speaking, she bowed to them and then ran through the crowd.
The woman who had been speaking up for her felt embarrassed. She had tried to help, but then the person she was helping apologized and fled, leaving her behind. The protagonist of the fight had left, leaving her with no choice but to continue. If she didn’t, her face would be utterly lost.
Seeing that Wen Zhu had left, Gu Pan also felt that there was no point in continuing the discussion. She said to everyone, “Sorry for the inconvenience, let’s leave it at that. Everyone can go about their business.”
The crowd dispersed, and that woman, who lived in room 107 right next to theirs, could only walk away dejectedly. She lived alone in the base, her husband was at a research institute and hadn’t co over. She had co with a few neighbors.
But those neighbors had pretended not to hear her causing trouble earlier and went back to their rooms. After all, no one wanted to offend anyone at this ti. They were just neighbors, not life-or-death buddies. They also weren’t the kind to stand out. So it was better to just pretend they hadn’t seen anything.
Speaking of which, those neighbors didn’t really like the woman’s personality. She liked to ddle and show off, but they didn’t want to get involved. The thinking of normal people was to live quietly and unassumingly in the apocalypse.
Gu Pan and the others saw that it was getting late and went back to their room to wash up. It was about ti to get so sleep.
Back at their beds, Wen Zhu sat with her back to them, applying so Red Wound Ointnt she had gotten from sowhere onto her arm.
Gu Pan and the others ignored her and continued doing their own things.
The next morning after breakfast, Qin Qianqian ca by.
Gu Pan introduced Qin Qianqian to their group, and soon Qin Qianqian beca familiar with everyone.
Having another acquaintance around made their area even livelier. Wen Zhu looked over at them with even more jealousy.
When Qin Qianqian was about to leave for lunch, Gu Pan quietly slipped her a few White Rabbit Milk Candies into her hand.
Qin Qianqian was a bit surprised when she felt what it was but knew she couldn’t make a fuss. She quietly thanked Gu Pan and left.
In the afternoon, when Gu Pan, Lu Ruisheng, Duan Shui, and Chen Lang were out getting so air, they saw those sa two people from yesterday.
They were still in the sa place as the day before. This was not a coincidence, but rather because everyone had their usual spots when they ca out, especially since there would be music playing here, and so people would gather to do exercises or dance. It was actually a form of workout.
Lu Ruisheng and the others chose the sa place as yesterday to practice their self-defense because it was still a good spot.
So Gu Pan and Duan Shui picked almost the sa spot as the day before. This lon seed too tempting not to eat.
