Wang Peng has been reborn. He has returned to the day when his father forced him to give his college admission notice to his younger brother and dropped out of school to work and support his brothe...
After Wang Peng and Du Lei finished soaking in the hot spring, they walked out of the hot spring resort and saw a woman standing in front of a car in the distance.
"Who is that?" Wang Peng couldn't see her face clearly, but her figure seemed somewhat familiar.
"Damn it, is this never going to end?" Du Lei gritted his teeth in anger and strode towards the car.
"Oh?" Wang Peng guessed who she was and smiled slightly. "It's not that it's endless, it's that it's shameless."
Instead of following, he took out his phone and called Li Mingzhu.
Once the call connected, before he could speak, Li Mingzhu said with a smile, "Honey, I told Dong Shishi that you and Du Lei were at the amusement park."
"Why?" Wang Peng scratched his head. "She has already broken Du Lei's heart. Do you really want Du Lei to accept her again?"
“No,” Li Mingzhu said. “I think Du Lei still has some feelings for her. I plan to make Du Lei see her true colors completely.”
Wang Peng paused for a moment. Thinking about it carefully, it seemed to make some sense. Dong Shishi would definitely pester him relentlessly to get back together; the more she made a scene, the more annoyed Du Lei would become.
"Okay, I understand," Wang Peng said. "I'll be leaving the country in a few days. Are you ready?"
"Don't worry, everything's already prepared," Li Mingzhu said with a smile. "I'll call Mengjiao to confirm the follow-up."
Wang Peng chatted with her for a few more minutes, then hung up the phone and slowly walked towards his car.
Suddenly, they heard crying and saw Dong Shishi squatting on the ground, clinging tightly to Du Lei's leg, sobbing uncontrollably.
"Brother Lei, I was wrong, please forgive me." She pleaded desperately, tears ruining her exquisite makeup.
Her voice was loud, and many people in the amusement park gathered around to watch the spectacle.
"Are you crazy? Let go!" Du Lei was both angry and anxious, struggling violently.
Dong Shishi used all her strength to hold him tightly, and he couldn't break free. He hurriedly looked up at Wang Peng.
Wang Peng sighed softly, walked into the crowd, and came to them.
"Dong Shishi, what exactly do you want?" Wang Peng asked. "You were the one who wanted to break up with him back then, so why are you clinging to him now?"
"Brother Peng, I was wrong," Dong Shishi said, crying. "I'm sorry to you, I'm sorry to your wife, and I'm even more sorry to Du Lei."
“Saying all this is useless. I just want to know why you're clinging to Du Lei now,” Wang Peng questioned sharply, staring directly at her.
Dong Shishi found it difficult to speak and did not answer the questions. Instead, she hugged Du Lei's leg tightly and cried uncontrollably.
Du Lei was so exasperated by her that he looked up at the sky, his face turning red and then white.
Perhaps because her story was so moving that she brought tears to people's eyes, uninformed onlookers began to express their opinions, but these opinions were all biased towards Dong Shishi.
"Young man, she's a girl, can't you be a little more understanding?"
"That's right. A real man should be broad-minded; how can he argue with a woman?"
"Girl, don't cry. Tell us what's wrong, and we'll all be the judge."
"..."
Public opinion was on Dong Shishi's side, and Dong Shishi cried even harder, as if she had found the trick to force Du Lei to give in.
Du Lei was so angry that his face turned red. He wanted to lash out at the onlookers, but there were too many of them, and getting angry would only backfire.
Wang Peng was speechless. People nowadays like to use moral blackmail, they all sympathize with and support women, as if men are inherently resentful.
Two elderly women emerged from the crowd and approached Wang Peng, their bodies trembling.
One of them said, "Hello, young man."
"Hello, ma'am." Wang Peng lowered his posture and greeted them with a smile.
"You're their friend, right? What's going on?" The two elderly people, who only brought small stools, sat down next to Wang Peng.
Wang Peng could only take the bowl down and say with a smile, "Since you asked, I'll tell you the whole story."
He started from the beginning. When Wang Peng first arrived in the provincial capital, Du Lei ran a tobacco and liquor store with him.
At that time, Du Lei had a falling out with his family. To comfort him, Li Mingzhu introduced her classmate and best friend, Dong Shishi, to Du Lei as his girlfriend.
To help Dong Shishi, Wang Peng arranged for her to work at a tobacco and liquor store. Later, Dong Shishi and Du Lei started dating.
The old lady exclaimed in surprise, "Young man, so you're Wang Peng, the owner of Brothers Supermarket?"
Wang Peng nodded and said with a smile, "Old man, you know me too?"
"Of course. I often buy things from you; I just went yesterday." After saying that, the old lady grasped Wang Peng's hand.
Exclamations arose from the crowd. Everyone had lost interest in Du Lei and Dong Shishi and focused their attention on Wang Peng.
He was, after all, a celebrity in the provincial capital, the youngest entrepreneur, one of the top ten outstanding youths in the province, and a name known to almost everyone.
The old lady said, "Your supermarket is so good, there are no counterfeit goods there. I don't go anywhere else, I only go to your supermarket."
Wang Peng smiled and said, "Grandma, thank you for coming."
The old lady nodded and said, "Mr. Wang, please continue."
Wang Peng pointed at Du Lei and said loudly, "Fellow villagers, this is actually Du Lei, the president of our Brothers Supermarket."
"Oh my!" The old lady immediately looked up at Du Lei. "Wow. He really is a handsome man. If I were seventy years younger, I would cry and beg to marry him too."
"Haha..." The audience burst into laughter.
Wang Peng was amused by her and continued, "Du Lei is my brother. Out of respect for him, I kept promoting Dong Shishi, giving her shares, and making her the vice president. During their relationship, Du Lei remained faithful to his love and never cheated on her."
"But then she met a foreigner who taught English at a university. She fantasized about immigrating to the UK with him, so she abandoned Du Lei and started a relationship with him."
"In the end, her foreigner abandoned her, and he went back to England alone. Her dream was shattered, so she thought of Du Lei again, hoping to get back together with him. But Du Lei had already been heartbroken by her and refused to be with her again. So she just kept pestering him."
Wang Peng looked around and said loudly, "Fellow villagers, this is what happened. You be the judge."
"No, that's not how it is!" Dong Shishi shouted at the top of her lungs, "I was tricked by that damn foreigner, she tricked me!"
Dong Shishi's shouts were loud, but the response was minimal. People have their own scales of judgment; they can tell who is telling the truth and who is lying.
"Young lady, that's not right of you. Comrade Du has been incredibly kind to you, why are you still bothering him?"
"Mr. Du did not wrong you; you wronged Mr. Du. Girl, let go."
"Hmph. If I were you, I would never have the face to pester President Du. Let's part ways amicably."
Immediately, accusations arose from the crowd. The old lady who had been talking to Wang Peng also picked up her small stool and left.
Dong Shishi blushed instantly and lowered her head without saying a word.
