"What does this have to do with Huo Jue?"
Wen Xia Nuan frowned as she looked at Li Mei, who was trying to put the blame on someone else, and said, "Don't put the blame on Huo Jue. He did nothing wrong!"
"Yes, Li Mei, could it be that Huo Jue forced your son to do what he did?"
"Li Mei, you are being unreasonable!"
A flurry of chatter erupted from all around, and the captain, maintaining order, said, "Fellow villagers, listen to me first!"
Under the protection of the captain, everyone shut up and their eyes fell on the captain.
"Fellow villagers, Huo Chen brought this upon himself! I will certainly not shield him. I will appeal every single thing he did."
"As for Li Mei's random talk, it depends on whether Huo Jue can forgive her! If he doesn't forgive her, I will ask her to write a letter of apology tonight!"
Li Mei's expression changed several times, and she finally looked at Huo Jue: "Huo Jue, after all, I am your aunt. I apologize to you, can you bear it?"
Wen Xia Nuan felt very uncomfortable. This Li Mei was really being stubborn.
She looked at Huo Jue, moved closer and said, "Don't be afraid, just do what you have to do."
Huo Jue glanced at Wen Xia Nuan and nodded: "I know."
He looked at the captain and said, "Captain, although Li Mei is my aunt, you have seen her behavior. I really need her to apologize to me."
After hearing what Huo Jue said, the captain nodded: "Li Mei, have you heard what Huo Jue is thinking? Since he asked you to apologize, then write a letter of apology and review it with your son later!"
Li Mei looked at the captain in disbelief: "Captain, I'm Huo Jue's aunt! How can I put my face aside to apologize to a junior?"
The captain glanced at her and lectured her, "Li Mei, you have to act like an elder. If you don't do well yourself, how can you expect the younger generation to respect you?"
Li Mei's expression changed several times after being confronted. She took a deep breath and said, "Okay, I understand, Captain!"
"I'm going back."
Huo Jue's eyes fell on Wen Xia Nuan, and Li Mei stared at their backs fiercely.
Chen Yanfang caught a glimpse of Li Mei's expression from the corner of her eye and was shocked, but was dragged out by her mother.
"Mom, that look in Li Mei's eyes really hates Brother Jue!"
Auntie Fatty snorted and laughed: "Li Mei can't stand your brother Jue the most. If what happened today really ruins Huo Chen's job in town, she will only hate him even more!"
Li Mei watched as the people around her dispersed and tugged at Huo Chen, "Are you still embarrassed enough? Go back now!"
Huo Chen staggered beside his mother, his eyes fixed on her: "Mom, wait a minute."
"What are you waiting for? Hurry up and catch up!"
Li Mei's cursing voice was heard, but Huo Chen said nothing, just lowered his head and followed her forward.
"Huo Jue, don't you feel wronged?"
Wen Xia Nuan fixed her eyes on him: "Aren't you sad or heartbroken?"
"Is it necessary?"
Huo Jue forced a smile, and Wen Xia Nuan glanced at him: "Of course there is a need to be sad!"
Wen Xia Nuan frowned and looked at Huo Jue. She didn't know if it was her illusion, but she always felt that Huo Jue was irritable and emotionally extremely cold.
She looked at him suspiciously: "I always feel that your mood swings are very mild except for anger."
Huo Jue's hands were clenched into fists. He glanced at Wen Xia Nuan nervously: "Do you think I'm weird like this?"
Wen Xia Nuan shook her head: "I'm worried about you."
It cannot be said that people do not have seven emotions and six desires. If they are indifferent to everything, it is either because they have been influenced by the outside world and have defects.
Huo Jue is that kind of person, it’s really hard to say for her.
"Would you dislike me like this?"
Huo Jue's eyes fell on her, and even his breathing quickened a little.
Wen Xia Nuan stopped and looked at him seriously, finally shaking her head: "There's nothing to dislike, Huo Jue. I can accept you no matter what kind of person you are."
When Huo Jue heard Wen Xia Nuan's words, his whole body trembled. His chest felt sore and swollen. When he looked at Wen Xia Nuan, he almost wanted to reach out and hug her in his arms!
God knows how much effort he put into controlling himself.
Wen Xia Nuan stretched out her hand and waved in front of him: "Let's go!"
He came back to his senses and his eyes fell on Wen Xia Nuan.
As night fell, Wen Xia Nuan couldn't wait to run to the threshing ground after dinner.
"Huo Jue, hurry up!"
Wen Xia Nuan waved at him, and Huo Jue looked at her with a smile: "Slow down."
"Brother Ajue, Wen Zhiqing!"
Seeing these two people coming, Chen Yanfang hurried over and said, "Wen Zhiqing, are you here to listen to Huo Chen's apology too?"
Wen Xia Nuan and Chen Yanfang huddled together, muttering, "Of course. Don't you think it's nice to see someone you hate apologize?"
Chen Yanfang looked at Wen Xia Nuan with sparkling eyes: "Of course it feels good! Especially Huo Chen, I can't wait to see him apologize!"
Wen Xia Nuan chuckled. Chen Yanfang leaned in close to her and muttered endlessly. Wen Xia Nuan took out a handful of melon seeds from her pocket and handed them to her: "Try it."
Chen Yanfang took the melon seeds from her hand and began to eat them. The team leader also appeared in the threshing ground: "Fellow villagers, please be quiet!"
The originally noisy threshing ground suddenly became quiet, and the villagers all looked towards the stage.
"Everyone in the village knows that Huo Chen and Li Mei and their mother have caused a very bad influence on our team today! I want to take this opportunity to speak out in front of everyone."
"We can't do these things that are not good for the morale! Not only is it embarrassing, but we're also a big team! We need to be united, not let personal emotions get in the way!"
"The captain is right!"
The villagers all applauded, and the team leader said, "Let's start the criticism meeting now. Let Li Mei and Huo Chen come up and reflect on their mistakes in front of everyone!"
Huo Chen went on stage under the gaze of everyone.
He took the manuscript and began to read out his faults in front of everyone, his ears burning.
Li Mei stood aside feeling unhappy. After Huo Chen finished, it was her turn.
She mumbled hesitantly. Chen Yanfang, standing in the audience, couldn't help but look at Wen Xia Nuan: "Wen Zhiqing, have the compensations from Li Mei and Huo Chen arrived?"
Wen Xia Nuan shook her head: "Not yet, but the captain will probably tell us in front of us."
Chen Yanfang nodded and looked ahead expectantly: "Then I'll wait and see."
The two people's apologies finally came to an end. The team leader took the stage and said, "We have all heard Huo Chen and Li Mei's apologies, right? Adhering to the principle of admitting mistakes and correcting them, our team will forgive them this time. What do you think, fellow villagers?"
