Chapter 58: Ruan Moli plays the victim and gets slapped in the face
However, before she could retreat to a safe distance, her wrist was suddenly grabbed.
She was forced to stop just inches away from him, so close that she could hear his breathing.
The cold mint scent mixed with a barely perceptible hint of tobacco drifted into his nose. Ruan Yuntang's pupils dilated slightly, and he looked at him in surprise and confusion.
Jiang Yubai took a deep breath and said, "Ruan Yuntang, you——"
Before he could finish, Ruan Yuntang suddenly yelled, "Jiang Yubai, you actually dared to slack off and sleep? I caught you!"
The voice was so loud that almost everyone in the rows in front and behind looked at them, including the leader of this row.
“…” Jiang Yubai.
Except for Mr. William who was confused and Julia who was watching the fun, the other leaders all frowned.
Chen Gang tried to smooth things over at the right time, "It's my fault too. The tasks I've assigned to this kid recently are too heavy."
After saying this, he glanced at the couple and praised them, "Your wife is quite upright and impartial. She deserves praise!"
Ruan Yuntang met the strange and puzzled looks around him and wished he could bury himself. The sinister look beside him was even harder to ignore.
She forced a smile that was uglier than crying. "Actually, I was just joking with my husband. I'm sorry for disturbing everyone."
At this time, Jiang Yubai also suddenly smiled and agreed with her, "Yes, she was joking with me."
Ruan Yuntang looked at him strangely, and when he met his sickeningly gentle smile, he suddenly felt a chill on the back of his neck.
"Young people just know how to have fun." Chen Gang laughed.
The leaders then looked away and said calmly, "You should take it easy and don't tire yourself out."
"Yes, yes, yes." Chen Gang smiled twice and waited for the leader to look at the stage before turning around and glaring at Jiang Yubai.
Jiang Yubai also quickly went over and apologized a few times. When he sat down again, he looked at Ruan Yuntang deeply.
Ruan Yuntang's hair stood on end, and he quickly hugged Julia's arm to chat, and he definitely didn't look to the right.
As a result, after several performances, she felt like her neck was cramping.
But she still felt as if the back of her head was about to be shot through.
I hope he won’t assassinate me if I embarrass him in public!
Before she could think about it, a strong smell of perfume suddenly came to her.
Chen Zhishuang and another girl carried trays and smiled at Julia.
"Mr. William, Mrs. William, this is a gift our art troupe prepared for you. Welcome to the beautiful Dragon Kingdom!"
Julia looked at the fragrant bottles of perfume on the tray with surprise, and couldn't wait to pick up a bottle and spray some on her wrist.
The aroma permeated the air, wafting into her nose. Julia raised the corners of her mouth in satisfaction, "Thank you, I like it very much."
When Mr. William saw that his wife liked it, he thanked several leaders solemnly.
Chen Zhishuang also received her father's praise. She raised the corners of her lips silently and slowly looked at Jiang Yubai.
However, he was met with a profile.
Where his eyes fell... was the face of another woman.
Chen Zhishuang's heart sank, his eyes fell on Ruan Yuntang, and he suddenly asked with a smile:
"Comrade Ruan has been staring at this perfume. I'm sure he recognized who made it!"
Hearing this, Ruan Yuntang frowned, "Could this be done by someone I know?"
"Yes." Chen Zhishuang smiled mysteriously, suddenly turned around and waved towards the distance, then smiled and introduced Julia:
"This is the guy who created these perfumes."
Ruan Moli came over in a rose-red dress, pursed her rosy lips slightly, and greeted politely and obediently:
"Hello, Mrs. William, I'm Ruan Moli."
Julia looked at her admiringly, then suddenly realized something and turned to ask Ruan Yuntang, "Her last name is also Ruan. Is she your relative?"
She spoke in dry Chinese, but the others understood.
Chen Zhishuang spoke first: "Yes, she is Comrade Ruan's sister."
After saying that, she asked doubtfully, "Comrade Ruan looks so surprised. Didn't he know that your sister could make such a perfume?"
These words imply that she neither cares about her sister nor has a good relationship with her.
Ruan Yuntang raised his eyebrows slightly, "I really don't know."
"If I had known she could make this kind of perfume, I wouldn't have let Mrs. William smell it."
After she said this, everyone looked at her in shock. They never expected her to say such rude words.
Ruan Moli's face turned pale and her eyes red.
"Sister, I misunderstood you before, and I was punished. Can you please stop holding it against me?"
Many family members in the back row who were on good terms with Qiao Cui also began whispering.
"Yes, we are all family, and harmony brings wealth!"
"Besides, the girl was punished, wrote a self-criticism, and was fined. It will be hard for her to find a job in the future!"
…
Ruan Yuntang ignored these remarks and looked directly at Chen Gang. "Deputy Political Commissar Chen, can someone with such serious disciplinary issues be allowed to attend such an event openly?"
Chen Gang's face was not good either. Just as he was about to ask who brought her here, Qiao Cui ran over from a distance and said through gritted teeth:
"I brought her here. Jasmine is having a hard time at home right now."
After she finished speaking, she turned to look at Ruan Yuntang, "She just wants to supplement the family income, can't you tolerate her?"
Ruan Moli also squeezed out tears at the right time and choked up:
"Brother Chuan was injured recently. His family heard rumors about the army. Uncle Yang and Aunt He also fell ill. The family is counting on Brother Chuan and me."
"I just want to help share some of the burden at home, but I can't do any rough work, so I can only stay up late and try to make some small things."
In an instant, everyone felt sorry for him and cast condemning glances at Ruan Yuntang.
At this moment, Jiang Yubai suddenly stood up and said to Chen Gang sternly:
"Deputy Political Commissar, isn't it a bad idea to give Mrs. William a product made by someone with disciplinary issues?"
As soon as these words came out, Chen Gang's face suddenly changed. He wanted to cover his mouth. He quickly looked at Julia and explained:
"Mrs. William, that's not the case."
Julia half understood what she heard, but she only remembered that Tangtang and her sister had a bad relationship.
So she immediately threw the glass bottle back and said coldly:
"Why not? You let someone with a questionable mind deliver something to me. What if she put drugs in the perfume?"
Chen Gang immediately panicked, and the other leaders also hurriedly stood up.
Ruan Moli's face turned pale. She wanted to explain but was pushed aside by Chen Zhishuang.
At the critical moment, Ruan Yuntang smiled and came to the rescue: "Mrs. William, you misunderstood."
Julia listened to her and her expression improved, but she asked in confusion, "What's the misunderstanding?"
The leaders present wiped their sweat, hoping that she could coax Julia.
Ruan Yuntang paused, and then spoke as expected:
"This perfume is actually for you to spray on the toilet to remove odors, so it will not cause any harm to your body. You can use it with confidence."
After saying that, she added with a smile, "As for letting her into the auditorium, it's also a form of assistance for the elderly, the weak, the sick, and the disabled."
As soon as she finished speaking, the scene fell into dead silence.
“…” Leaders.
It did work, but it was too hurtful.
