Chapter 20: Dealing with Qian Guilan Again

Xia Wanyang didn't say anything. In fact, she really hoped that the news would spread, so that Zhang Shiye would be completely tied to her. But she didn't want to do that. It would seem like forcing Zhang Shiye. In fact, she was not sure whether Zhang Shiye liked her or not.

After saying that, Xia Wanyang went back to the house. She had to prepare some things. Zhang Shiye helped her, so it was only right for her to return some gift!

But what should she give him? If she gave him something too expensive, he would definitely not accept it. If she gave him something too cheap, it would not express her feelings. How about food? Would it be a bit ordinary? After thinking about it, she decided to give him a piece of cloth. She could not give it directly to Zhang Shiye, but to Aunt Qiao. She remembered that Aunt Qiao could make clothes in her previous life. She would just ask Aunt Qiao to make him some clothes!

I entered the space and chose a piece of blue cloth. The pure cotton cloth felt very comfortable to the touch. It was a good thing in the warehouse, like something from the 1990s. I also chose a piece of soft gray cloth to make a pair of pants.

After choosing the fabric, she went out to eat. She didn't eat breakfast with everyone. If she didn't eat lunch with everyone, she was afraid that everyone would suspect her.

Today's meal was prepared by Sang Qing, Li Huaguang and Mao Xiaojun. Sang Qing and Li Huaguang went to the countryside together for five years. They were the oldest educated youth in the team. The educated youth in the same batch either had their families find ways to get them back to the city or got married in the team.

There were only these two old educated youths left. These past few days, Xia Wanyang saw that their eyes were always making contact. Although they looked away immediately, Xia Wanyang understood that they should be a couple, but they just didn't make it public.

For lunch, they had two-piece steamed buns, fried bacon with garlic sprouts (the bacon was brought out by Gu Xiuyuan), shredded potatoes and tomato soup. Each dish was made in three portions, and the quantity was enough for twenty people.

Xia Wanyang took a few bites and found the food tasted okay, but she usually preferred light food, and Liao Sheng's food was salty. She didn't eat many bites of the dish, but she ate the whole steamed bun.

Li Wenzhuo secretly observed Xia Wanyang while eating. Seeing that she had only taken a few bites of the food, he immediately said attentively, "Xia Zhiqing, is the food not to your taste? How about I fry another egg for you?"

Xia Wanyang was so disgusted that she couldn't get the steamed bun down and it choked her. She stood up and drank a few sips of water to suppress it.

Throwing the water cup heavily onto the table, the pretty fox's eyes were full of contempt, "Li Wenzhuo, did your fucking head get caught in the door? Who do you think you are to fry eggs for me? Can you please stop being so petty? Don't treat others as fools. Do you think you're the only smart person here?

Do you think that if you say a few ambiguous words, everyone will connect you and me? You are really a toad lying on the foot, not biting people but annoying them!"

Then he looked at everyone at the table and said, "I, Xia Wanyang, am saying this today. If I hear anyone outside putting me and Li Wenzhuo together, don't say I'm merciless. I'll slap her to death!"

After saying that, he turned around and left the educated youth center, leaving everyone in the room looking at each other in bewilderment. They all knew that Li Wenzhuo liked Xia Wanyang, but they never said it out loud.

Li Wenzhuo's face turned red with embarrassment, and he clenched his fists in anger. He said viciously: "What are you looking at? Is it wrong for me to care about my compatriots? She is really a big lady, she can scold anyone she wants! This is the style of a capitalist. I don't know how her father became a teacher!"

The other educated youth lowered their heads, not knowing what to say.

They knew in their hearts that although what Li Wenzhuo said was unpleasant, it did make some sense.

Xia Wanyang really didn't give them any face at all. They had encountered people who confessed their feelings openly or secretly before, but no one had ever gone to this extent. Xia Wanyang's personality was really quite strange and hard to understand.

However, they also knew that the reason why Li Wenzhuo was so angry was more because he was scolded in public and lost face.

For a moment, the entire educated youth site fell into silence, and the atmosphere became extremely awkward and depressing.

But after hearing this, Li Xiang was not happy. "I say, Li Wenzhuo, do you think everyone is blind with your little calculations? How dare you think of my sister Yang? I have known her since she was born. To be honest, I have never seen a girl better than her in our compound. You always say unclear things to make others misunderstand you. How can you use rumors to force my sister Yang to compromise?"

After saying this, he sat down and started eating without caring whether Li Wenzhuo answered or not.

Xia Wanyang was feeling very angry. She wished she could kill Li Wenzhuo and Fang Zhaodi right away. However, there were many people around and the two of them didn't do anything substantial. She could only say some unpleasant words to anger Li Wenzhuo and then take advantage of the situation when he made the next move.

As she walked, she thought of Song Changhe. This little bastard not only stopped her from acting like a hooligan, but also dared to threaten Zhang Shiye and said he would sue the captain. He punched her really hard. She told Captain Zhang that even if Captain Zhang had vented his anger for her, he would have to punish his son, otherwise it would be difficult to convince the crowd. She would use him to vent her anger at noon!

Soon they arrived at Qian Guilan's house. The gate to the yard was not closed and the house was clean. When they reached the middle, they heard Qian Guilan screaming, "Zhang Shiye, you little bastard, dared to do such a heavy hand to my son. I'll go to the captain this afternoon to seek justice!"

Xia Wanyang sneered and walked straight into the house, "Aunt Qian, who do you want to seek justice from?"

Qian Guilan couldn't stand Xia Wanyang's noise at all. When she thought about how she had offended her so many times, she felt guilty. She hurried out to greet her with a smile, "Hey, Xia Zhiqing, what brings you here?"

Old Man Song and Song Changhe also came out. When Song Changhe saw Xia Wanyang, his eyes widened and he almost drooled. "Little educated youth, are you here to look for your brother?"

Before Xia Wanyang could say anything, Qian Guilan slapped Song Changhe on the back of his head, "How dare you, little bastard, talk to Xia Zhiqing like that?"

Song Changhe was shocked. When had his mother ever said that? If such a pretty girl came to his house, shouldn't he knock her out and send her to his room before making a fait accompli?

Xia Wanyang said calmly, "Aunt Qian, do you know why your son was beaten? It was because he teased me, and Accountant Zhang happened to see it. You said that your Song Changhai's brother is so bold. If he is reported to the police station for being a hooligan, and then I make another phone call, I don't know if Song Changhai can still serve in the army!"

Qian Guilan was almost frightened to the point of peeing again. She picked up the stove hook and started to beat Song Changhe. "You are such a bold bastard, how dare you stop anyone? Do you want to kill your brother? I will beat you to death, you bastard!"

Xia Wanyang walked into the yard, picked up a small stool and sat down to eat melon seeds. The whole room was filled with Song Changhe's screams and the sound of Old Man Song trying to stop him. Xia Wanyang smiled so hard that her eyes narrowed into slits.

After beating for more than ten minutes, Song Changhe's clothes were covered with bloodstains before he stopped beating. He then used his eyes to ask Xia Wanyang if she was satisfied.

Xia Wanyang let out a sigh of relief, threw down Mao Kepi, and clapped her hands, "Accountant Zhang is doing a good thing, I don't want to hear about anyone complaining, a lot of people saw it at the time!"

Qian Guilan threw down the stove hook, nodded and said, "Don't worry, Xia Zhiqing. Accountant Zhang beat him up because he deserved it. We will never go and complain about it for no reason. I hope you won't bother with him about what happened today."

"It's fine to ignore it, but shouldn't you thank Accountant Zhang for making him stop? If Accountant Zhang had come a step later and really bumped into me, what do you think would have happened to your family?"

Xia Wanyang said more aggressively.

Qian Guilan's back teeth were almost broken. "Okay, I'll take the gift and go thank Accountant Zhang right away, don't worry!"

Xia Wanyang was satisfied, then she put her hands behind her back and walked away humming a song.
