Chapter 420 Hating Evil as if It Were an Enemy
Jiang Zhizhi never expected that Shen Luojia would look so good with her thick bangs swept back.
Seeing Shen Luojia get up, Li Simin quickly let go of her hand: "Comrade, thank you for your help."
Shen Luojia turned to stare at Li Simin, her beautiful eyes filled with disapproval, and softly uttered four words: "Womanly compassion!"
Li Simin explained, "No, if you hit him too hard and accidentally kill him, you'll go to jail. It's not worth it. It's best to hand this kind of person over to the police."
Shen Luojia glanced disdainfully at the man sitting on the ground, clutching his head and wailing: "If we don't beat him hard, how will he learn his lesson? Someone like him will be released after a few days in jail, and he'll just go back to stealing and robbing."
Li Simin was at a loss for words and could not refute Shen Luojia.
Jiang Zhizhi hadn't expected Shen Luojia to be so righteous and indignant. She went over and called out, "Shen Luojia?"
Li Simin knew the name, since it had been mentioned just last night, but he hadn't recognized Shen Luojia just now.
The main reason is that he didn't pay attention yesterday, and Shen Luojia's presence was very low.
Shen Luojia was also surprised, not expecting that Jiang Zhizhi had remembered her name. She turned her head and smiled slightly.
Jiang Zhizhi suggested that they take the person to the police station first.
Some people have already reported the incident to the police, and the officers arrived quickly. After understanding the situation, they took the person away.
Li Simin thanked Shen Luojia again: "Thank you."
Shen Luojia pursed her lips, her eyes filled with disappointment. She greeted the two of them, then turned and quickly disappeared into the crowd.
The speed was so fast that even Jiang Zhizhi was surprised.
Li Simin was also puzzled: "She seems a little angry?"
Jiang Zhizhi nodded: "I noticed it too. She's a really strange girl."
Li Simin still exclaimed in admiration, "She grew up in the countryside, yet she has such amazing skills."
Jiang Zhizhi was also curious about this, but she was more curious about Li Simin's meeting with Song Man: "You just met Sister Song Man?"
When Song Man was mentioned, Li Simin still felt a little disappointed: "Hmm, is she having a hard time?"
Jiang Zhizhi thought for a moment: "It's not that she's doing badly. With her salary, she can afford a nanny and support a child. It's just that she's having a hard time right now, and society is quite harsh on divorced women."
Li Simin frowned: "Divorce, you can't blame her for that."
Jiang Zhizhi pushed the cart and walked back with Li Simin, asking very carefully, "Brother Simin, do you still like Sister Song Man?"
Li Simin smiled and said, "When I came back last time and saw her getting married, I had already let it go. When I saw her just now, I didn't feel any attraction or liking, but rather heartache."
Jiang Zhizhi was surprised: "You've really let go? I thought you would keep it in your heart because of regret."
Li Simin said helplessly, "Zhizhi, I'm not someone who only cares about my children. Once I said I'd let it go, I never thought about it again. Besides, when we're doing research, we don't have time to think about our children. Even when we're resting, all we can think about is data."
"I'm also glad we didn't end up together, otherwise I wouldn't be able to be there for her. My only regret is that she's not doing well."
Jiang Zhizhi wasn't too surprised by Li Simin's words. Just as Li Simin said, they had high-intensity experiments every day, their minds were full of data, and they had to verify it over and over again. Where would they find the time to spend on emotions?
She smiled and said, "Then you should explain it to your aunt. She worries about you every day."
Li Simin shook her head: "It's hard to explain. If I said I've let go, my mom definitely wouldn't believe me. Besides, I don't want to settle for less in my personal life. If I meet someone like-minded in the future, I'll be willing to start a family."
After saying that, he handed the things in his hand to Jiang Zhizhi: "I didn't bring back any gifts for Xiao Zhouji and Shangshang, these are for them. If you have a day off, come with me to visit Uncle Jiang and Aunt Jiang."
Jiang Zhizhi agreed: "Okay, I'm free tomorrow afternoon, let's go then."
Before she could discuss Song Wanying's matter with Jin Huaiying, Jin Huaiying had an accident, and everything from now on would depend on her.
...
When Jiang Zhizhi got home, she first went to Fang Hua and told him about Liao Guoqing.
Fang Hua wasn't surprised at all after hearing this, and snorted coldly: "Serves him right! The fact that he can do this so quickly shows that he still has a lot of problems. I told Uncle Xiye that we can't use power to suppress people. We have to make him fall down willingly."
"So, one should be more low-key; he was just too flamboyant."
He then instructed Jiang Zhizhi, "If you encounter any problems, just come back and tell me. Don't let these trivial matters affect your work. Just focus on your research."
Jiang Zhizhi nodded happily: "Okay, I'll tell you whenever I have any trouble in the future."
Fang Hua was very satisfied: "That's right. We're a family. We should work together to solve any problems we encounter."
Jiang Zhizhi gossiped with Fang Hua about Li Simin and Song Man's relationship, and about meeting Shen Luojia.
Fang Hua was shocked: "How can there be robberies? This is...too dangerous. But things have been quite unsettled lately, not as peaceful as they were a couple of years ago."
She was also curious about Li Simin and Song Man: "Simin is a kind-hearted person. Don't let him feel sorry for Song Man and help her when she's having a hard time, and then develop feelings for her later."
Jiang Zhizhi was taken aback. She hadn't thought of that. She thought Song Man's life wasn't too hard; it was just that there was no one to take care of the child right now. Once the child was older and sent to daycare, things would be much better for her.
"Probably not, Simin said he's already let it go."
Fang Hua didn't believe it: "He might have let go, but I'm afraid he's feeling sorry for her now and is trying to help her, you understand? By the way, you said that Shen Luojia is very pretty?"
Jiang Zhizhi nodded: "Yes, her eyes are very beautiful. She kept her head down yesterday, so we didn't see them clearly."
Fang Hua was somewhat surprised: "I didn't realize she was such a capable girl. I thought she was just a little nervous because she had just come from the countryside."
Jiang Zhizhi was also curious: "I wonder how old he is? He looks about the same age as me, right?"
The two chatted quietly as they shelled beans at the dinner table.
Zhou Xiye carried Shangshang back, and little Zhou Ji ran ahead and rushed in first.
Sweating profusely, he ran towards Jiang Zhizhi, saying, "Mommy, Mommy, Daddy, buy it!"
Jiang Zhizhi saw Zhou Xiye carrying Shangshang in one arm and several bottles of soda in the other, and couldn't help but laugh: "I bought soda when I came back too."
Zhou Xiye said helplessly, "They go out without buying anything, and neither of them comes back. They just stick to the counter of the service store and insist on looking at it."
Fang Hua laughed: "Those two little ones are just bullying you."
Zhou Xiye looked at the two children tenderly, mainly because he found their round heads perched on the counter to be quite endearing.
When Zhou Chengzhi returned for dinner, he said to Fang Hua with some puzzlement, "The Shen family of Lu Academy actually invited us over for dinner, saying they're holding a family reunion banquet."
Fang Hua had just talked to Jiang Zhizhi about Shen Luojia, so he had a deep impression of this girl: "A family reunion banquet? It's for Shen Luojia? Wasn't she supposed to be fostered in the countryside? How did it become a family reunion banquet?"
