They saw that Luo Jingyan and Luo Changtian were sitting properly. No wonder that bitch ran so fast earlier; she came early this morning to steal seats.
Lin Shanshan didn't want to stand; she needed someone to give her a seat.
She scanned the carriage and finally her gaze fell on Xue Yanchen.
This man is so fond of women, and she's so beautiful. If she just asked him to give up his seat, he would definitely agree.
So she walked up to Xue Yanchen and said, "Comrade, my feet hurt from walking. Could you give me your seat?"
Xue Yanchen said, "I'm sorry, I'm not feeling well and I can't switch with you. Please find someone else."
Luo Jingyan silently gave him a thumbs up, not being swayed by his good looks.
Lin Shanshan felt very embarrassed. Xue Yanchen had been perfectly fine the whole time, and he even went to the state-run restaurant to buy steamed buns early in the morning. It was obvious that he didn't want to give up his seat for her.
Then she turned her gaze to Zhao Wensong, who was standing behind Xue Yanchen, and asked, "And you, comrade?"
Zhao Wensong shook his head: "I'm not feeling well either, you should go find someone else."
Lin Shanshan is going to the countryside just like him, so she'll probably be of no use to him. Why should he suffer to curry favor with her?
If Lin Shanshan hadn't been so embarrassed when Xue Yanchen said those words earlier, it's clear that Zhao Wensong's words are a deliberate rejection.
Almost everyone on the bus had their eyes on Lin Shanshan. She had been rejected twice in a row, and her expression was extremely unpleasant.
At this moment, a male educated youth named Fang Zhiyuan stood up and smiled at Lin Shanshan, saying, "This lady, please take my seat."
Lin Shanshan finally regained some face, and as soon as Fang Zhiyuan stood aside, she immediately wanted to sit down next to him.
Just as she was about to sit down, she felt someone touch her buttocks, and she immediately slapped Fang Zhiyuan, who was sitting next to her, hard across the face.
With a sharp crack, the sound echoed throughout the carriage.
Fang Zhiyuan instinctively covered the half of his cheek that had been slapped, staring at Lin Shanshan in astonishment.
The others, unaware of what had happened, questioned Lin Shanshan: "That man kindly offered you his seat because he saw you were uncomfortable, how could you repay kindness with enmity and hit him instead?"
“Because of him, him.” Lin Shanshan knew how important reputation was to a girl, but if she didn’t explain, she would suffer for nothing: “Because, because he harassed me.”
No wonder Fang Zhiyuan offered her his seat; he was trying to take advantage of her.
"I didn't," Fang Zhiyuan retorted. "Comrade, I don't know why you're slandering me. Do you think that I gave you my seat because I'm interested in you? I just thought women are the weaker party, and I simply wanted to take care of the weak. I really didn't expect you to think that way. If I had known that my good intentions would be met with a beating, I wouldn't have given you my seat."
"Yes, lady, they meant well, but you've taken it all for granted. Don't sit in their seat, get up."
Lin Shanshan pointed angrily at Fang Zhiyuan: "He, he really did harass me, otherwise, why would I hit him?"
“I didn’t do anything indecent to you. I’ve always been well-behaved. Who knows what got into you to frame me like this? You must be heartless and like to repay kindness with enmity,” Fang Zhiyuan said.
"I did not falsely accuse you."
"How did he harass you? Explain yourself," some of the other male educated youths jeered.
Lin Shanshan was too embarrassed to say it.
"If I can't say, then I don't have it." Fang Zhiyuan felt confident.
Lin Shanshan glared at him: "You, you just touched my body."
"I wouldn't do such a thing."
Someone asked, "Where did he touch you? If he accidentally touched you lightly, there's no need to accuse him of indecent assault."
"It was either an accident or intentional."
"I accidentally touched your shoulder just now, and you call that indecent? You're wearing so many thick clothes, how could I possibly touch your body? You're making a big fuss about this."
“This isn’t considered indecent behavior, and there was no physical intimacy,” others said.
"He touched me, touched my butt, isn't that considered indecent?" Lin Shanshan had never suffered any humiliation since she was a child, and suddenly felt extremely wronged.
"Ha ha ha ha."
A burst of laughter immediately filled the carriage.
“I didn’t touch your butt. I’m a perfectly normal educated youth sent to the countryside. You’re accusing me without any evidence. Don’t you have a conscience? Ha, are you trying to extort money from me and make me pay you back? Let me tell you, you won’t get away with it.”
"Do you think I care about your money? I just want justice for myself."
"I think you're overly suspicious. You see no one as a good person and everyone as someone who wants to harm you."
The two were arguing and couldn't reach an agreement. The person in charge was sitting in the back and was getting a headache from the argument in front of him.
But he couldn't just leave it at that, so he went over there.
Lin Shanshan and Fang Zhiyuan were arguing, and sitting behind Lin Shanshan was Zhang Hongxia, who saw this as her chance to get revenge.
She told the person in charge, "I was sitting behind this man the whole time, and I saw that he was behaving very properly and did not do anything inappropriate."
The person in charge said to Lin Shanshan, "Someone has already testified that the man did nothing wrong. If you can find evidence that the man acted indecently towards you, I can go to the police station with you to expose him. If you can't find any, then you are just making things up and disrupting the harmony of the group."
Lin Shanshan panicked and quickly asked the people around her if anyone had seen Fang Zhiyuan harassing her. Unfortunately, Fang Zhiyuan was on guard against others when he made his move. He was very careful, and with the car seat providing cover, he naturally didn't leave any evidence.
