Chapter 55: Complete Trust
It was not until after the sun set that Su Lanqiao finally finished sorting the fish. However, her slowness still caused many people to make sarcastic remarks about her.
She dragged her tired body down from the fishing boat, and when she passed by the military wives, she suddenly heard their pointing and talking.
"It's this woman who hangs out with those soldiers all day long. If you don't know her, you'd think she's trying to seduce them. She's so shameless."
"That's right. You really think you're still the eldest daughter of a capitalist. Apart from that face, what else can you show off? Instead of working hard here, you just dream of those unconventional ways. You think you can find a good job here and live the life you used to live before, right?"
"It seems her temper hasn't changed. I see her hanging out with married soldiers every day. She's probably trying to get involved in other people's families. I hate shameless bitches like this the most in my life."
Su Lanqiao naturally took all these words to heart. She clenched her fists, but no matter which aspect, she was no match for these people.
Seeing that she didn't say anything, the others intensified their discussion. "We must have predicted it, otherwise why wouldn't she say a word? Is she feeling guilty?"
"Ever since this little girl came to this place, I've felt that she's not someone who would sit idle. Sure enough, after just a few days, she's already thinking about seducing other men. She should be kicked out. Why should she be allowed to harm everyone here?"
After returning to the crowded little room, she lay on the bed, smelling the fishy smell on her body, tears of resentment flowing from her eyes.
She blamed all of this on Su Jinhui. If it weren't for her, this wouldn't have happened. It was Su Jinhui who harmed her. It was all Su Jinhui's fault.
“Ah…tsk…”
On the way back from get off work, Su Jinhui sneezed and wiped her nose.
After the sun sets, a sunset glow appears on the horizon, which looks very beautiful.
"Doctor Su, are you off work now?"
Su Jinhui looked at the passing military wives and nodded to them, "Yes, let's go back and prepare dinner. What delicious food are you going to make tonight?"
The military wife spoke to Su Jinhui happily, "Last time you said that you could use kelp to make soup, and it tasted good, so I thought I'd give it a try. I just picked up some fresh kelp from the beach, and I'll make some soup with two eggs later."
"Kelp and egg drop soup?"
"This soup is good. It can replenish some of the substances needed by the human body. It is suitable for people of all ages."
The wife of the soldier laughed even more happily when she heard what Su Jinhui said. "Then I have done something wrong and stumbled upon it by mistake. I will go home and make some soup first. You should go back quickly too. Don't let Yan Li'an wait anxiously."
Three days passed in a flash, and Xie Yunfeng and his companions came to the fishing village again to exchange supplies. This time, Su Lanqiao showed up after a long time, and he looked obviously much more haggard.
"Lan Qiao, what's wrong with you? Are you feeling unwell?"
He asked with concern, and just when Su Lanqiao was about to speak, those military wives appeared beside Su Lanqiao again.
Someone saw Xie Yunfeng caring so much about Su Lanqiao and couldn't help but sneer, "This vixen only knows how to seduce men. After seeing these soldiers, she eagerly came up. I guess if she was alone, she would have to strip naked in front of these men."
"Isn't it? Looking at her appearance, she is a vixen. She walks right up to men when she sees them. How shameless."
Su Lanqiao clenched her fists. Enough...
She had heard enough of these words.
With tears in her eyes, she looked at Xie Yunfeng pitifully, "Brother Xie..."
Xie Yunfeng frowned and glanced at the gossiping military wives with displeasure, "What nonsense are you talking about? Su Lanqiao didn't do anything, can you please stop putting the blame on her?"
"Did we say something wrong? These past few days, she eagerly approaches any soldier she sees. Some of the soldiers are already married, but she still won't let them go. It's obvious that she wants these soldiers to take her away."
"This capitalist's daughter just can't stand the hardship of this place, and can't endure the hardship. That's why she wants to marry a soldier, or use him to leave here. I've seen this kind of people a lot."
"Comrade, I advise you to be careful, lest you be taken advantage of by this woman. Don't underestimate this little girl's young age, she's very capable."
Xie Yunfeng looked at Su Lanqiao in confusion, "What's going on?"
"Don't listen to their nonsense. This is completely false and I have never done anything like it. Besides, I don't know whether they are married or not, and it is impossible for me to pry into their private information."
"Brother Xie, you have to believe me. If I really had this idea, I wouldn't care about anyone else. After all, you are the captain of the army. If I really did this, why don't I just seduce you directly?"
Although this may sound a bit rude, it is indeed the truth.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, he came in front of these military wives, pointed at their noses and cursed, "You have been saying bad things about me for so many days, and I have endured it for so many days. Since you are slandering me in front of Brother Xie, why not let Brother Xie be a witness."
"Why are you accusing me of something I didn't do? I wonder if my sister sent you here. She knew I was in this fishing village and she wanted to make my life miserable, so she sent you here to torture me, right?"
"What benefits did you receive from my sister? Why does she hate me so much? Does she want me to die?"
These military wives didn't know Su Jinhui at all, so they were even more confused after hearing what Su Lanqiao said.
However, Su Lanqiao's acting skills were so amazing that Xie Yunfeng was completely fooled by her. "You just said that they were ordered by your sister?"
"If she wasn't my sister, I don't know why they would say that to me, and I have no grudge against them."
"Xie, brother. I don't want to believe that my sister did this, but he's the only one who hates me so much. I don't know who I offended."
"What should I do? I feel like I can't stay in this place any longer. I really want you to take me away, but I'm a guilty person and I can't leave!"
Her resolute look made Xie Yunfeng feel even more distressed. Suddenly, he became angry and looked at these military wives, "What's the big deal about bullying a little girl? Just take care of your men. Don't think that other women always want to snatch them away."
"If I hear you gossiping and saying bad things about Su Lanqiao again, I will not let you off."
After saying that, he took Su Lanqiao's hand and left to relax at the beach.
"Don't cry. If you have any grievances in the future, just tell me. I won't let them bully you."
Su Lanqiao raised her head and looked at Xie Yunfeng with tearful eyes. The corners of her mouth curled up slightly. It was a pity that Xie Yunfeng didn't know what kind of person Su Lanqiao was.
