Chapter 51
Ye Fuyue naturally didn't know about this little episode in the Yao family, nor did she know that this little episode was actually related to her.
After everyone in the family went out to work or school, Ye Fuyue cleaned the house, washed the clothes, and then went out for a stroll humming a little tune.
She went to the supply and marketing cooperative to find Yu Tong.
Yu Tong saw her and said excitedly, "You finally came to see me. I have a lot to tell you! If you didn't come, I would have no one to chat with."
A question mark slowly formed on Ye Fuyue's forehead, and she deliberately said, "Aren't you at work? Why are you still looking for someone to chat with?"
Yu Tong chuckled and said, "I just like chatting with people during work hours. After get off work, I don't have the energy to chat anymore."
"Tell me, what do you want to talk to me about?"
Actually, Ye Fuyue had come to chat with Yu Tong and buy some groceries. She acted as if she was listening attentively.
"My cousin came to the supply and marketing cooperative a few days ago and asked me if you came to see me. What's wrong with you?" Yu Tong asked.
Ye Fuyue then told Yu Tong in a very moving way how she encountered the human traffickers, fought a battle of wits and courage with them, and finally captured them.
Yu Tong was stunned when he heard this, his eyes widened.
After Ye Fuyue finished speaking, Yu Tong said, "It was so thrilling! Fortunately, it was you! You're smart and quite skilled. If I had been caught by human traffickers, I would have been sold by them long ago and there would have been no way I could have escaped!"
"I was just lucky. Your cousin taught me a lesson. He said if the other party had a gun, would I still be able to escape?"
Yu Tong nodded in agreement: "My cousin is right. If the other party has a gun, you will be in great danger. No matter how agile a person is, he can't be as fast as a bullet!"
After a pause, Yu Tong sighed again: "After listening to what you said, I won't dare to help anyone who asks me for help on the road in the future."
Ye Fuyue said, "We can still help, but we need to be more vigilant. Take that old woman, for example. She said she was lost, but we can't just be kind and show her the way. We need to think about it. There were so many people on the road, why did she choose to ask a little girl like you? Couldn't she ask a man? Even if she said it was because you looked kind and easy to talk to, why didn't she go to the police? The police are more responsive to the people's difficulties. We shouldn't follow people like that. We should just take her to the police and let them help her."
Yu Tong looked educated: "You're right, we should take her directly to the police!"
After finishing the story about the human traffickers, Ye Fuyue asked her, "You just said you had a lot to tell me. What is it?"
When talking about this, Yu Tong looked hopeless.
"My parents know about Yang Shucong."
"Ah?" Ye Fuyue was shocked. "How did they know? Did you let it slip?"
"It's because I was crying all the time during those few days and didn't come to work. Although I lied to them and said that my eyes were swollen because of mosquito bites, they didn't believe it at all. When they came to the supply and marketing cooperative to ask, they found out about Yang Shucong. Although the people in the supply and marketing cooperative only knew that Yang Shucong and I broke up, they didn't know why. But my parents have a wide network of contacts, and they found out that Yang Shucong had lied to me as soon as they asked around. They were almost mad, and they scolded me when they got home, saying that I was stupid and that crying for that kind of man was even stupider."
Ye Fuyue nodded suddenly, so that's how it is.
"It's fine if they just scold me, but they also want to arrange blind dates for me, saying that the gay men I find myself are unreliable. It's better for them to screen me to prevent me from being cheated again." Yu Tong said.
Ye Fuyue nodded: "Your parents have a point. Excluding some unreliable matchmakers, family members do know the background of the people they meet. At least, there won't be a situation like Yang Shucong."
"But I don't like any of the ones they introduced to me. There's indeed nothing wrong with their families, but their personalities are not that good!" Yu Tong looked miserable.
Ye Fuyue patted her shoulder with deep emotion.
In the matter of blind dates, she, Yu Tong, and Wu Qiaoer were all in the same boat. However, she found Chen Yao and was able to get out of it earlier.
"You don't know, I also have a blind date at noon today." Yu Tong had a sad face and showed a smile that was uglier than crying.
"You're going on a blind date at noon too? Don't you have to go to work in the afternoon?" Ye Fuyue said.
"Yeah. My parents said that if the blind date at noon goes well, the other party can come and pick me up from get off work in the afternoon."
Ye Fuyue: "..."
It seems that parents all over the world are the same when it comes to blind dates, no matter how many years have passed.
"That's right!" Yu Tong suddenly perked up: "Come with me to the blind date at noon. Sit near me and help me decide whether my requirements are too high or the other person is really not good enough!"
"Okay." Ye Fuyue agreed, "But I have to go back home first, put the food I bought at home, and leave a note for Chen Yao so that he won't worry."
"Okay, okay, go buy some groceries!"
After buying vegetables, Ye Fuyue went back home, left a note for Chen Yao, and returned to the supply and marketing cooperative.
Yu Tong happened to be off work, so the two of them went to a state-owned restaurant together.
Yu Tong looked around the restaurant but didn't see anyone wearing a blue shirt.
"He shouldn't have arrived yet. Just sit at the empty table behind me and order some food. It's my treat." Yu Tong said.
"How can I have the nerve to let you treat me?" Ye Fuyue said.
"You came with me to this blind date, so of course I have to treat you." Yu Tong said nonchalantly, "I won't talk to you for now, lest he find out that I brought someone here."
"good."
Ye Fuyue ordered a bowl of noodles. She was eating alone, so it was difficult to order any dishes.
By lunchtime, more and more people came to the state-owned goods store.
Ye Fuyue was eating her noodles when she heard a man's voice behind her say, "Hello, are you Yu Tong?"
Ye Fuyue turned her head and took a look.
The other person is of average height, but looks quite delicate. I wonder if he is the type that Yu Tong likes.
Ye Fuyue turned back and continued eating noodles, while listening to their conversation.
"Have you been waiting for a long time? Sorry, something happened when I was about to get off work, so I was delayed for a while."
"It's okay, I didn't wait long. I just got here."
Ye Fuyue thought: This man is quite polite.
"Have you ordered?" the man asked.
"Not yet." Yu Tong said.
"I'll order some. I eat here often, and I know what dishes are good."
Then, the man ordered two meat dishes and two vegetable dishes.
"These four dishes I ordered are the four most delicious dishes they have. I'm sure you'll like them."
Yu Tong's smile was a bit perfunctory: "Haha."
Ye Fuyue: "..."
She should retract her comment about the man being polite. How could he order food without asking the woman's opinion? He wasn't the only one eating.
