In the evening, after Lin Qingyan got off work, she suddenly heard someone calling her. She turned around and saw Dong Yue and Lin Zhiheng by the roadside.
"elder sister."
"Comrade Lin."
Lin Qingyan stopped her bicycle next to them. "Xiao Heng, Comrade Dong Yue, are you going to the canteen for lunch?"
"Yes, sister, why don't we go together? That way you won't have to cook when you get home."
"Okay then, I'll be home alone anyway, let's eat together in the cafeteria."
They walked and chatted until they reached the cafeteria, got their food, and then sat down to eat together.
As soon as Xu Xinning entered the cafeteria, she saw Dong Yue and Lin Qingyan eating together. However, the person sitting opposite Lin Qingyan was another man, and Dong Yue was sitting next to that man.
Xu Xinning didn't know what the relationship was between Lin Qingyan and that man, but she didn't want Lin Qingyan to have anything to do with Dong Yue.
She was terrified that Dong Yue and Lin Qingyan would see her. If Lin Qingyan knew about her relationship with Dong Yue, she could find out where Grandma Lin was through Dong Yue.
There were many people eating in the cafeteria. She deliberately went to the window furthest away from them to get her food, and then hid in a corner to eat, trying her best not to be seen by Dong Yue and Lin Qingyan. After about ten minutes, she turned her head to look again, and Dong Yue, Lin Qingyan, and the man from before had already left.
She was about to leave the cafeteria after finishing her meal when Zhou Qingqing approached her.
"Xinning, did you see that just now? Your third brother was with that married woman again. I warned him last time I saw him, telling him to think about his future. But he wouldn't listen to me, saying there was nothing special between them, but they were having dinner together again today."
Perhaps because there were many people around, they were afraid that others would discover what was going on between them, so they deliberately let Lin Qingyan sit opposite another male comrade.
Xinning, Comrade Dong Yue is your brother. You can't just stand by and watch him sink deeper and deeper into this mess, ruining his future in the end.
Xu Xinning was glad that Zhou Qingqing thought the same way as her and didn't want Dong Yue and Lin Qingyan to get too close.
He said, "I don't have any substantial evidence. If I were to tell my third brother that he's a married woman having an improper relationship, he would definitely be angry."
"What should we do then? Xinning, why don't you ask your family to keep an eye on your third brother?"
"If I tell my third brother to tattle on me behind his back, he will blame me just the same way."
Xu Xinning held Zhou Qingqing's hand: "Qingqing, I actually think you and my third brother are quite a good match. Maybe my third brother is just temporarily blinded by some people and can't see your good qualities yet. I believe he will wake up one day."
Zhou Qingqing was immediately delighted upon hearing her words.
"Xinning, do you really think your third brother and I are a good match?"
"Of course, I think you're perfect to be my third sister-in-law." Xu Xinning had to coax Zhou Qingqing in order to achieve her own goals.
Actually, she didn't like Zhou Qingqing at all.
Zhou Qingqing was overjoyed; she truly was the perfect person for Dong Yue.
"But Dr. Lin, I really don't know when your third brother will be able to stop contacting that woman. I'm afraid that if he keeps spending time with her, what if he makes a mistake?"
If Dong Yue is punished or arrested, then she will not be able to become Dong Yue's wife.
Xu Xinning said, "I do have an idea."
"Tell me quickly."
"...They are afraid of gossip, so they definitely won't go together."
Zhou Qingqing thought for a moment, "This might be a good idea, but it must be done discreetly."
"Of course, Qingqing. I can only offer suggestions on this matter; you still need to fight for your own happiness."
Zhou Qingqing bit her lower lip tightly and finally made up her mind.
"Okay, let's do it this way."
In the pitch-black night, a shadowy figure lurked suspiciously outside the residential compound. After sticking something on the wall, it immediately disappeared.
The next morning, several people gathered around that wall.
"No way, Dr. Lin isn't that kind of person. She wouldn't go and seduce another man while her partner is away. Could this be someone spreading rumors out of jealousy?"
"Who knows? As the saying goes, you can know a person's face but not their heart. They may seem upright on the surface, but who knows what kind of person they are in private."
"Well? It's not entirely impossible. After all, his wife isn't home right now, and she's great in every way. Even if she doesn't bother him, he'll still be bothering her."
Who put this here?
"have no idea."
When Gu Mingzhou arrived at work, he saw a crowd gathered around him.
He went over and saw a big-character poster on the wall, which was a news article about two people having an affair.
When he looked at the names on the list, one of them was Lin Qingyan, and the other was Dong Yue.
He overheard people gossiping that Lin Qingyan was secretly flirting with other men while Lu Zhengting was away.
When he saw Lin Qingyan's name on it, he was somewhat shocked and couldn't believe that Lin Qingyan would do such a thing.
But when he saw Dong Yue's name, he got angry again.
Why can Lin Qingyan flirt with other men but not with me?
Even if she doesn't actively flirt with me, she should at least accept my offer since I've come to her.
Unfortunately, no.
He was very resentful. He was already inferior to Lu Zhengting, but how was he inferior to Dong Yue?
He originally intended to tear down the big-character poster to protect Lin Qingyan's reputation.
But the thought of her flirting with other men made him jealous. He didn't care, so he turned and left.
