"Someone wants to... ruin the reputation of our village!" the villager said tremblingly, as if he had used up all his strength.
Shen Qiqi and Lu Qing were shocked. What they feared would come true!
They walked quickly to the information board at the entrance of the village, where several big-character posters were posted. The crooked handwriting was full of slander and defamation, which was disgusting to look at.
"How ridiculous!" Lu Qing shouted angrily and punched the information board. There was a loud "bang" sound, which scared the surrounding villagers so much that they shrank their necks.
Shen Qiqi took a deep breath and tried hard to suppress the anger in her heart.
Although the handwriting on the message board was ugly, it pierced her heart like poisonous thorns.
These rumors were more violent and vicious than expected.
She could feel a tense atmosphere spreading rapidly in front of the information board.
The villagers were whispering, and a feeling of worry was spreading among the crowd.
"Brother Qing..." Shen Qiqi's voice was a little hoarse.
Lu Qing held her hand tightly, giving her silent support.
He knew how much pressure Qiqi was under at the moment.
She finally led the village back on track and was about to live a good life, but someone stabbed her in the back.
This feeling is as disgusting as eating a fly.
Bad news comes one after another.
The next day, the head of the cooperative hurried over with a serious expression.
"Qiqi, something happened! Several partners in the city heard some news and are now unwilling to cooperate with us."
Shen Qiqi only felt a dull pain in her chest and her vision went dark.
Rumors spread quickly like a virus, eroding the village's reputation.
Lu Qing supported her, his eyes firm: "Don't be afraid, Qiqi, I'm here."
"I'm fine." Shen Qiqi took a deep breath and tried to keep herself calm.
She knew that now was not the time to panic and she had to find a solution as soon as possible.
As night fell, Shen Qiqi and Lu Qing sat in the yard, the atmosphere was solemn.
The moonlight was like water, sprinkling on the two of them, but it couldn't dispel the haze in their hearts.
"Qiqi, we can't just sit there and wait for death." Lu Qing broke the silence, "We must find the mastermind behind this to completely solve the problem."
Shen Qiqi nodded, "I know, but this matter is more complicated than we thought..."
Suddenly, a burst of noise came from the village entrance, breaking the tranquility of the night.
"Let's go and take a look." Lu Qing stood up suddenly, an ominous premonition coming to his mind...
Shen Qiqi and Lu Qing rushed to the village entrance, and the scene before them made their hearts sink.
A group of people holding crooked banners blocked the entrance to the village, clamoring for an explanation.
In the crowd, a few familiar figures were particularly eye-catching - they were the lazy and jealous guys in the village.
"Hey, isn't this our great hero, Shen Qiqi! What's wrong? Have you done something wrong and are afraid to come out and see people?" A sarcastic voice came from the crowd. It was Wang Cuihua, the famous "gossip woman" in the village.
Lu Qing's face darkened, and he was about to step forward to argue, but was stopped by Shen Qiqi.
"Brother Qing, don't be impulsive." Her eyes were calm, and a sneer appeared on the corner of her mouth. "Let them make a fuss. The bigger the fuss, the better."
The crowd's roar grew louder and louder, like the buzzing of a swarm of flies, disturbing and distracting.
Shen Qiqi stood in front of the crowd, her eyes like torches, sweeping across the distorted faces.
She didn't say anything, just waited quietly, waiting for the best time.
"My fellow countrymen, you have all been deceived!" Shen Qiqi's clear voice suddenly rang out, drowning out the noise of the crowd and instantly attracting everyone's attention.
"These people are not doing this for the good of the village. They are just jealous. They are jealous that our village is developing well and that I am living a good life!"
There was a commotion in the crowd, with whispers rising and falling.
Shen Qiqi calmly took out a stack of documents and held them high.
"These are all evidence of their fabrication and spreading of rumors! They are willing to damage the village's reputation to achieve their goals. Shouldn't such people be punished?"
As soon as she finished speaking, the crowd exploded.
Some people began to question, some began to accuse, and the spearhead was directed at those who led the riot.
Wang Cuihua and others turned pale, their eyes evasive, like rats crossing the street, wishing they could find a crack in the ground to crawl into.
"Qiqi, you are so awesome!" The villagers gathered around and talked excitedly.
"I told you, Qiqi, how could she possibly do something like that!" "Let's see what they have to say now!"
Lu Qing looked at Shen Qiqi who was surrounded by the villagers, his eyes full of pride and satisfaction.
He walked over to her, gently took her hand, and interlocked their fingers.
As the night deepened, the crowd gradually dispersed and the village entrance returned to peace.
Shen Qiqi and Lu Qing stood side by side, looking at the starry sky in the distance, their hearts filled with hope.
"Qiqi..." Lu Qing's voice was a little low.
"Hmm?" Shen Qiqi turned her head to look at him, the moonlight shining in her clear eyes.
Lu Qing took a deep breath, "Those partners..."
"I'm going to call those partners one by one right now! Whoever dares not to cooperate with us will know what regret is!" Lu Qing rolled up his sleeves, looking like he was ready to fight, and Shen Qiqi couldn't help but chuckle.
"Brother Qing, don't be impatient. The best is yet to come." Shen Qiqi smiled mysteriously. Sure enough, the next morning, the cooperative's phone was flooded with calls. Those partners who had been wavering before, one by one, seemed to have kowtowed, scrambling to express their willingness to continue cooperation, and they also brought more and better projects.
