I didn't say in Chapter 100 that this was the end of it.
Shen Yuzhu's words immediately sparked a flurry of discussion. Zhao Yue and Zhou Congsheng slightly raised their chins, the brother and sister looking quite proud.
Bai Chunyang and Mu Qing exchanged a glance, their expressions stiffening for a moment, wondering if the Guan family had lost their minds.
"Slander! You're just slandering me! I'm a perfectly innocent young woman, and Zhou Congsheng has taken advantage of me. My reputation is ruined. How can I ever get married? You're his fiancée, so of course you're on his side. My poor girl is innocent and pure. What future does she have? Aren't you forcing her to her death?"
"If you're going to die, then die already. Go die somewhere else and don't cause trouble for my brother and sister-in-law."
Shen Yuzhu was about to say something when Zhao Yue interrupted her. This little girl was like a grasshopper, jumping around and she couldn't catch her.
Guan Yiting's face was covered in tears. She turned her head and was about to bang her head against the wall when Zhou Congsheng saw this and quickly shouted.
"Comrade Guan, don't do anything foolish."
At the very least, we can wait until he finishes speaking before doing anything.
His wife and sister were both standing in front of him. If Guan Yiting really got into trouble, then his family would be the ones facing public condemnation.
Guan Yiting was startled and turned her head in surprise, her eyes filled with joy as she looked at Zhou Congsheng.
Meeting the gazes of his wife and sister, Zhou Congsheng, feeling slightly guilty, took out a tape recorder from his pocket.
"This was given to me by my fiancée. Last time, Zhao Yue and I saved an investor from Hong Kong. That person gave it to my Zhuzhu as a gift. It can record people's voices. It's quite advanced. This thing is small. When I came to eat, I was listening to the music that Zhuzhu had saved for me and brought it with me without noticing. I think it should record everything that happened last night."
Zhou Congsheng showed the tape recorder to everyone. To verify its authenticity, he turned it on and could hear Zhao Yue cursing inside, with crackling sounds mixed with Zhao Yue yelling.
She felt a little embarrassed after hearing that.
But the Guan family members all turned pale. Company Commander Guan hurriedly ran two steps toward Zhou Congsheng. No one would believe there was nothing fishy about their expressions.
The expressions on everyone's faces as they looked at Guan Yiting changed instantly.
Immediately afterward, Zhou Congsheng pressed the play button. After a series of crackling sounds, Song Biao first took Zhou Congsheng to the Guan family's house, saying that he would come to pick him up in three hours.
Then came the sound of clinking glasses and exchanging toasts. The drinking went on for a long time, and the conversation grew louder and louder, indicating that some people were drunk.
Not long after, there was a knock on the door of the Guan family. It was clear from the sound that Song Biao was looking for Zhou Congsheng, but he was brushed off and told not to come over. He was told to leave with the others later.
Song Biao ignored him and only left after receiving a signal from Zhou Congsheng.
Zhao Yue cursed and looked at Zhou Congsheng as if he were a complete idiot.
Zhou Congsheng lowered his eyes and glared at her. "You idiot, why aren't you coming out yet?" He was just trying to see what trouble the Guan family was up to.
Shen Yuzhu stood to the side with her arms crossed, pretending not to see their little actions, but she was already getting angry inside.
Her expression grew increasingly somber, her aura intensified, and the air around her seemed to freeze. Zhou Congsheng and Zhao Yue, standing in front of her, quickly sensed this, and their expressions also became increasingly stiff.
Zhou Congsheng visibly panicked.
The tape recorder continued playing, and it had already reached the part where Guan Yiting opened the door, called for her parents, and then heard her ask if Zhou Congsheng had been drunk.
At this moment, she truly panicked, clasping her hands together as she looked at Shen Yuzhu and Zhou Congsheng.
"No, no, Captain Zhou didn't do anything inappropriate to me. I just like him so much that I said that on purpose. I begged my parents to help me. They had no idea what I was going to do. They just wanted to treat Captain Zhou to a meal. Captain Zhou, please don't let me go, please don't let me go. I promise I'll stay far away from you from now on."
“Shen Zhiqing, it’s my fault, it’s my fault. Please, don’t let him go. Don’t let Captain Zhou let him go. I know you’re getting married, but I’m just not willing to accept it. I’m sorry, I’m really sorry.”
After realizing that their daughter wanted to take the blame, the company commander and his wife thought it over and over again, and then the company commander slapped Guan Yiting hard across the face.
"You bastard, how dare you lie to me! Look at the mess you've made, you've really disgraced the Guan family."
"Ah~, why are you hitting the child? What did she do wrong? It's just that Zhou guy is too flamboyant. If he had refused earlier, would my Yiting have done anything wrong?"
Shen Yuzhu thought for a moment and then pressed the record button. Zhou Congsheng would be staying in this army for several more years, so it was best not to offend anyone. However, she would not let the person who started this matter off easily.
"You didn't refuse?"
"I'm not familiar with her; we've only met a few times, so there's no question of whether I'd refuse or not."
Everyone: "......"
Guan Yiting's efforts were all one-sided; after all that, no one knew what she was really thinking.
"I think everyone knows who's right and who's wrong today. My Zhou Congsheng was wronged. In the end, it's just that the girl couldn't have the girl she wanted. It's not a big deal. We've been neighbors for so many years, so let's just pretend nothing happened, okay?"
After Shen Yuzhu and Zhou Congsheng got married, they would also be living in the family compound. She wanted to establish her public image first, so that no one would take advantage of her later.
The Guan family breathed a sigh of relief; as long as it didn't escalate, the impact of the matter could be minimized.
Before anyone could react, Shen Yuzhu rushed over, pulled Guan Yiting out of her mother's arms, and then quickly slapped her across the face four times.
For a moment, everyone was stunned. Zhou Congsheng uttered an "uh..." and his eyes lit up instantly.
His wife is seeking justice for him!
"What are you doing?" Guan's mother hugged her daughter tightly, carefully examining her face. Her gaze towards Shen Yuzhu was filled with hatred, as if she wanted to tear her apart.
"Hmph, I said I wouldn't pursue this matter because of your status, Zhou Congsheng and Company Commander Guan, but I never said it would just end like this. Zhou Congsheng and I just submitted our marriage application, and someone tried to steal it away. Isn't that a slap in my face? I went to the countryside to support rural development. I was wronged, and so was Zhou Congsheng. Slapping her twice is too lenient."
After Shen Yuzhu finished speaking, she turned around and left without paying attention to anyone. Zhou Congsheng hurriedly chased after her. Zhao Yue also wanted to go, but her arms were suddenly locked by Bai Chunyang and Mu Qing, and she was dragged away.
"Zhuzhu, don't be angry. I just wanted to make a scene so that no one would bother you in the future. I'm sorry, please don't be angry anymore, okay?"
"How could I dare to be angry? Captain Zhou is so capable, he even offered himself to a tiger. He's truly outstanding!"
