"If you can't wash, then don't." This was the first time Luo Jingyan had ever gone through such a troublesome ordeal with someone. "You won't die from not showering."
“Luo, we are all educated youth, why can’t we help each other?”
"My things are mine. I can give them to whomever I want, and I won't let anyone use them if I don't want to."
"Luo Jingyan, you're stingy."
"You're not stingy, you're going to show everyone naked right now."
Du Yinan said angrily, "Luo Jingyan, do you think I don't know that you seduce men and make them do your work? That's why you don't have blisters on your hands. You don't do any work at all. You just rely on men to support you."
Snap!
A resounding slap landed squarely on Du Yinan's face. "I told you I have a hard hand, now you feel it, right? If not, do it again."
Du Yinan covered her face and subconsciously took two steps back. She looked at Luo Jingyan with a wronged expression for a few seconds before bursting into tears.
"Luo Jingyan, how dare you hit me? What right do you have to hit me?"
Luo Jingyan blew on her palm: "If I don't hit you, you'll be so arrogant."
Du Yinan felt a burning pain on her face, much more painful than the blisters on her hands.
She didn't know what level of martial arts Luo Jingyan possessed, but the slap hurt her terribly and also ignited her inner courage.
"You bitch, I'm going to strangle you."
She lunged at Luo Jingyan with bared teeth and claws, but Luo Jingyan easily dodged her, slapped her again, grabbed her wrist, and threw her to the ground.
Du Yinan didn't care about the pain on her face at this moment. She was only thinking about teaching Luo Jingyan a lesson. She got up from the ground and fought with Luo Jingyan again, but was defeated once more.
The third time, she no longer had the courage to stand up.
She sat on the ground and cried for a while. Suddenly, she remembered Tong Jianxin and decided to go and complain to him.
Besides, if not now, when would be a better time to confide in Tong Jianxin and get closer to him?
So she skipped the procedure of finding Shen Ruyi and went directly to the male educated youth dormitory to find Tong Jianxin.
Shen Ruyi saw her at the doorway but remained silent.
Du Yinan found Tong Jianxin crying. She looked weak and stumbled into the men's dormitory, almost falling into Tong Jianxin's arms.
Tong Jianxin quickly stepped aside, but Fang Zhiyuan was quick to help her up and took the opportunity to place his hand on her waist. He said gently, "Du Zhiqing, be careful."
Du Yinan pushed him away, saying, "Fang Zhiqing, please be mindful of the distance between us."
Fang Zhiyuan rubbed his hands together. The little girl's waist was quite soft. He would touch other places next time.
"Du Zhiqing, I'm sorry. I was just worried about you. I may have offended you unintentionally."
Du Yinan looked at Tong Jianxin: "Tong Zhiqing, you are in charge of the educated youth settlement. Luo Jingyan just hit me. Please stand up for me."
Tong Jianxin's biggest headache was dealing with the endless bickering and trivial matters among these female educated youths. He usually let Shen Ruyi handle it, but Du Yinan actually came to him directly.
"Du Zhiqing, does Shen Zhiqing know about this?" Just let's get rid of this problem.
"I came to you because Luo Jingyan is too capable, and I was afraid that Shen Zhiqing wouldn't be able to control her."
When Zhao Wensong saw the slap mark on Du Yinan's face, he remembered the punch he had received to the chest, which still hurt a lot.
Luo Jingyan is really violent. If he can coax her into submission, who will he be afraid of in the future?
Tong Jianxin said, "I'll go with you and ask what's going on."
He went out first, with Du Yinan following closely behind.
As soon as Tong Jianxin stepped out, he saw Shen Ruyi standing at the door, and his eyes flickered slightly.
“Shen Zhiqing, Du Zhiqing came to me and said that Luo Zhiqing laid a hand on her. Do you know what happened?”
“I know, but Du Zhiqing went to find you without telling me first.”
Du Yinan said, "I'm sorry, Shen Zhiqing, I was afraid you couldn't handle Luo Jingyan. That's why I went directly to Tong Zhiqing."
Shen Ruyi didn't point it out to her: "In the future, you should try to tell me about things between the female educated youth. If I can't resolve them, then you can go to Tong, the educated youth."
"I see."
Tong Jianxin said, "In that case, let Shen Zhiqing handle this matter first."
"Okay." Shen Ruyi nodded, and Tong Jianxin returned to his dormitory.
Shen Ruyi said, "You were in the wrong today, and you should understand that."
“Shen Zhiqing, you really are on Luo Jingyan’s side.”
“I’m not taking sides. You insulted Luo Zhiqing first. Don’t you know how important a girl’s reputation is? Anyone would be angry after hearing your words, so you have no grievances. I hope you can behave yourself next time and stop looking for trouble. Although Luo Zhiqing hit you, you started it. You don’t need to apologize to her. It’s best if you two live in peace from now on.”
Du Yinan clenched her fists tightly: "Did I suffer this beating for nothing?"
Consider this a lesson learned. Be more careful next time. Alright, it's getting late, everyone's tired, and we need to get to work early tomorrow. Go back to your rooms and get some sleep.
At this moment, Luo Jingyan was doing what she was doing, taking the cloth into the room and sitting on the edge of the kang (a heated brick bed) to rest and trim her nails.
Shen Ruyi and Du Yinan came in together. Shen Ruyi did not mention what had just happened. When Du Yinan passed by Luo Jingyan, she glared at Luo Jingyan. Luo Jingyan immediately raised her hand to slap her, which scared her so much that she subconsciously dodged and did not dare to say a word.
She hadn't had time to shower, and her body was very itchy. She went to boil water with Lin Shanshan and then wiped herself down in the dormitory.
The next morning, Du Yinan was the last to get up again. After working all day yesterday, her bones felt like they were about to fall apart. After resting for a night, her body and hands were even more sore.
Seeing that she wasn't getting up, Shen Ru went to wake her: "What's wrong with you? Do you want us to wake you up like we did yesterday?"
Du Yinan, as usual, put on a pitiful look.
"Sister Ruyi, can I ask for a day off? I don't need work points. I'm too tired and I really want to rest."
