Chapter 1169 A Small Punishment
Chu Xue had no intention of dealing with her again. In any case, her space was now mostly filled with medicinal herbs, and the older those herbs were, the more valuable they would be.
As for the fruit in the space, there isn't much of it. You can keep it for yourself or use it to give as a favor. There's no need to sell it all here.
She circled around several times to make sure no one was following her before quickly heading towards the guesthouse. After all, she had to catch a train early the next morning, and it was already late after two transactions that night.
Following the same old route, after confirming the surroundings were safe, I quickly climbed through the window back into the room.
After returning to her space to wash up, she realized she hadn't cleaned up the footprints outside the window. She slapped her forehead and left the space, only to find it was raining heavily outside. Well, even the heavens were helping her. With a thought, she felt relieved and went back into her space to catch up on sleep.
She was woken up by an alarm clock, and since she never procrastinates when she has important matters to attend to, she was already prepared when someone knocked on the door.
Mi Aijun stood outside the door: "Team Leader Zhou asked me to come and call you to have breakfast."
When the two arrived at the small door leading to the cafeteria, someone was already waiting there. When Wan Qing saw Chu Xue coming over, she rolled her eyes at her.
First Snow isn't one to take things lying down. You think I'm being too nice to you? Time and time again, what a jerk.
Once everyone was assembled, Captain Zhou took the lead and headed towards the guesthouse canteen at the back, with Wan Qing following closely behind, her head tilted back.
As everyone filed out through the small gate and into the back courtyard, no one noticed that a soybean had been flicked from Chu Xue's hand and struck Wan Qing's Weizhong acupoint, also known as the numbness point, at the back of her knee.
Without warning, Wan Qing cried out and knelt down. Xu, who was walking behind her, was almost implicated, but fortunately Zhang Chunsheng, who was walking beside him, pulled him up.
Zhou, who was walking in front, turned around and saw Wan Qing kneeling behind him: "What happened? How did you fall down like that?"
Chu Xue had naturally made thorough preparations long ago. After walking out through the back door, she stayed far away from her. Even if Wan Qing wanted to 'wrongly accuse' her, she couldn't find a reason.
Wan Qing turned around and glanced behind her. She saw that there was no one standing behind her, and Mi Aijun, who was closest to her, had no chance of doing anything to her. However, Chu Xue was standing diagonally behind her, two people away, and was looking at her with a curious expression.
People already had a bad impression of her, and she knew that it wouldn't work if she rashly accused someone. But she didn't want to suffer in silence: "I don't know what happened, but I felt a numbness in my leg just now, and I fell down uncontrollably."
Hearing her words, Mi Aijun frowned: "Your health is really poor. I'll tell your director to arrange for someone else to go on business trips again."
Those who understand this will know what it means.
Indeed, she's been the most idle person for the past month or so. She hasn't done her job well, and she insists on helping others instead of doing things that aren't her responsibility. Because she's a woman, no one can say much, but she has absolutely no sense of propriety. I really don't know what to say about her.
Seeing that she was alright, Captain Zhou didn't want to waste any more time: "It's good that you're alright. We still have to catch the train later, so we can't be late."
He glanced at the person still kneeling on the ground and said, "Stop kneeling and get up."
After saying that, he turned and went into the cafeteria.
Chu Xue didn't get along with her, so she naturally wouldn't take the initiative to help her. As for the others, they were too embarrassed to say "men and women shouldn't touch each other," so they also didn't feel comfortable helping her.
Wan Qing had no choice but to get up on her own, but the force of that kneeling was quite strong; only those who experienced it know the pain.
