Shen Mengya looked up at the people around her, but still couldn't say anything.
Instead of making her admit that she impersonated Lu Zhengting's fiancée just for vanity and to hurt Lin Qingyan, it would be better to just let her die.
"You can't say it now, can you? You're an enemy spy." The old woman was very certain. "Captain, she is an enemy spy. Let's hand her over to the commune."
"No. Don't hand me over to the commune, I'm really not an enemy agent." Shen Mengya was already crying.
Mrs. Lu said, "Mengya, since you're not an enemy agent, why don't you explain? Crying won't help. I've heard that some enemy agents are best at pretending to be weak and pitiful, using other people's sympathy to cover up their own flaws. Mengya, I hope I haven't been deceived by you all these years. If you really are an enemy agent, Auntie will show no mercy, because what I hate most are those who grew up in the motherland, received the protection and nurturing of the country, and then betrayed the country."
"Auntie!" Did even Mrs. Lu believe she was a spy? "Auntie, you watched me grow up, do you really think I would be a spy?"
Mrs. Lu shook her head. "We don't live in the same courtyard. Sometimes we don't even see each other once a month. How would I know what you do in your spare time?"
Why don't any of you believe me?
"Why should we believe you?" the old woman holding her captive said. "You deliberately impersonated someone's fiancée, but you couldn't give a coherent explanation. There's definitely something wrong with you."
Shen Mengya was both scared and anxious. Who would save her?
Where is Grandma? Where is Grandma? Why isn't she coming to save me?
At this moment, Grandma Lu was waiting for her to return to the educated youth settlement.
When Grandma Lu woke up, Chen Lu told her that Shen Mengya had gone out and that she shouldn't worry, saying that Shen Mengya would come back on her own.
So she waited for Shen Mengya at the educated youth settlement.
At the captain's house, Shen Mengya felt ashamed and caught in a dilemma as she faced interrogation from others. But at this critical moment, Grandma Lu did not come to save her. Was she really going to be arrested?
No, being treated as an enemy agent has very serious consequences. Once she's arrested, she might be tortured into confessing.
The only way now is to save ourselves.
He admitted he was jealous of Lin Qingyan, so at worst he would lose face.
If I don't explain myself and get arrested as an enemy agent, I might go to jail.
She gritted her teeth.
Compared to being caught and going to jail, what does losing face matter?
"I, I'll talk."
"What did you say? Are you going to confess that you're an enemy agent?" The old woman had become a judge.
Shen Mengya shook her head. Her face was flushed red, almost as if it could bleed. Her head was lowered, almost touching the ground.
She stammered, "I'll confess why I impersonated Comrade Lu's fiancée."
"Speak quickly!"
"I, I." She took a deep breath, trying to calm herself down, and then closed her eyes before daring to speak, "I know that Comrade Lu and Dr. Lin are dating, and they are getting married today. I like Comrade Lu and don't want them to get married, but I can't stop them."
So I pretended to be Comrade Lu's fiancée. Even though I couldn't marry him, pretending to be his fiancée would satisfy me somewhat.
"Ha ha ha ha."
Li Fang and Li Qinqin could no longer hold back and burst into laughter. In order not to disturb the "interrogation" on the other side, they covered their mouths and ran out.
The old woman said, "So you're just jealous of that young couple, so you pretended to be Comrade Lu's fiancée. You knew they had someone and were getting married, yet you still did this. You're so immoral. How desperate for a man are you to be so eager to be someone's fiancée?"
Luckily, a few of us knew the truth, otherwise, if we had mistakenly thought Comrade Lu was two-timing and spread the word, wouldn't we have ruined his reputation?
Shen Mengya bit her lip tightly, remaining silent.
The old woman continued, "I think you're deliberately trying to break them up. It wouldn't be hard for someone like you to find a decent man, so I don't understand why you have to do such a despicable thing. You're not my daughter. If you were, and she deliberately broke up someone else's relationship, see how I would beat her up?"
Shen Mengya wailed inwardly: You almost broke my arm, and you don't even consider that a beating?
She looked at the captain and said, "Uncle, I've already confessed. It's just because of a personal grudge between us. It has nothing to do with enemy agents. Please have them release me."
The group felt that Shen Mengya had suffered enough, so the captain waved to the two older women.
"Since she's not an enemy agent, let her go."
The two older women then let go of each other's hands.
Shen Mengya was finally free and couldn't wait to leave.
"Captain, now that things have been explained, can I leave? Grandma is still waiting for me at the educated youth settlement." She didn't want to stay here for another second.
"You can leave now."
As soon as the captain finished speaking, Shen Mengya fled the house like a rabbit that had mistakenly entered a tiger's den.
She was filled with regret. What kind of place was this? She had just casually said something, and yet she had suffered such severe torment. Her luck here was just too bad.
Exhausted, she walked towards the educated youth settlement, pondering whether or not to tell Grandma Lu what had just happened.
Inside the brigade leader's house, the three older women also said goodbye and left.
The people inside continued to discuss Lin Qingyan and Lu Zhengting's marriage.
Lu's mother pulled Lu Zhengting aside and asked her son, "You and Qingyan have already registered your marriage. Have you discussed with her when to consummate your marriage? Your uncle's family doesn't have many houses. It's okay for them to live there normally, but it's a bit cramped for the three of us. Qingyan's family has two houses, but there are quite a few people there. If you two want to consummate your marriage tonight or on the day of the wedding banquet, I'll prepare the house in advance."
