The deputy regiment commander who ranked first in the entire military region's competition fell on flat ground, tripped over his left foot with his right foot, and fell himself.
It was too late to refuse.
The box of rice with vegetable soup in Gu Yanli's hand was poured directly into his arms.
One of Shen Tingci's blocked ones was even held down.
The soup was full and Shen Tingci took it.
For a moment, not only Shen Tingci was stunned.
Wei Hongtao was also dumbfounded.
The cafeteria, which had been a little noisy, suddenly became silent.
Soon, Wei Hongtao ran over first, first helped Gu Yanli, who was suspected of spraining his ankle, to stand up, and then hurriedly took the handkerchief handed to him by others and wiped the food off Shen Tingci's body.
Shen Tingci also took the handkerchief handed to him, including the one in his own pocket, and quickly cleaned the stains on his body.
Wei Hongtao apologized, "Minister Shen, my...my little brother didn't mean it, please don't bother with him."
Shen Tingci shook his head, indicating that he didn't care.
But Gu Yanli was still arguing. He leaned on the table and looked at his feet. "I think my foot is sprained. I have no food left. You have to compensate me!"
The scene fell silent again.
Wei Hongtao himself was also dumbfounded.
He looked at Gu Yanli in disbelief, as if he didn't recognize him.
Gu Yanli didn't think he did anything wrong. "I was walking fine, but I fell down when I was walking next to you. You think there's nothing wrong with you?"
"Yanli..." Wei Hongtao wanted to say something to Gu Yanli.
Shen Tingci raised his hand to stop him. He took out money from his pocket, a total of more than two yuan, and Shen Tingci gave it all to Gu Yanli.
"That should be enough for your meal."
Gu Yanli looked at his ankle, which he thought was sprained...
Wei Hongtao quickly covered his mouth.
"That's enough, that's enough," Wei Hongtao said with an apologetic smile.
Shen Tingci put down the money, then stood up and nodded to Wei Hongtao, “I have something else to do, so I’ll leave first.”
Gu Yanli wanted to pull away Wei Hongtao's hand that was covering his mouth, but Wei Hongtao held it down so tightly that he couldn't.
As soon as Shen Tingci left, the other people who had gathered around nodded to Wei Hongtao and quickly dispersed.
Wei Hongtao covered his mouth and dragged him back a few steps until he reached a place where there were not many people around before letting go of his hand. "...you..." He didn't know what to say for a moment.
He just kept looking up and down at Gu Yanli, whose face was covered by his hand. "Are you being impersonated?"
Gu Yanli also quickly explained, "I'm really sorry for you today, old company commander."
As soon as Wei Hongtao heard this, he understood that there was something hidden.
"Um?"
Gu Yanli told his sister that Shen Tingci was her blind date.
Wei Hongtao was even more dumbfounded. "If that's the case, why did you spill the food on him?"
Gu Yanli did not hide it from him. He had already taken advantage of him, and it would be embarrassing to hide it from him now.
"My parents feel that the gap in social status is too big, and they're worried that my sister will be wronged after getting married."
"Besides, we don't understand his personality, so today I..."
Wei Hongtao punched him in the chest. "You kid, you want to scare me to death. I thought you were something wrong. Tell me, why are you hiding this from me?"
Gu Yanli was embarrassed. "Actually, I shouldn't have kept it from you, but I was mainly afraid that you would know in advance. If you were embarrassed then, our acting wouldn't be the same anymore."
Wei Hongtao thought about it and nodded, "Don't tell me, I'm afraid I won't be able to help myself and tell you your plan!"
After the situation was explained clearly, Wei Hongtao asked someone to clean up the food on the ground and took Gu Yanli to get some food.
I originally thought that this was the end of Gu Yanli’s operation.
Wei Hongtao also said a lot of good things about Shen Tingci during the meal, "I won't tell you too much about Minister Shen's family background. I believe the matchmaker has said everything he should say."
"On a personal note, I'll simply tell you what I saw and what I encountered!"
Gu Yanli nodded, indicating that he would listen carefully.
Wei Hongtao also said, "We are not in the same department, but we have contact on a daily basis. Although he looks cold, he is actually quite diligent in his work. He is not the kind of person who relies on his parents for support. He is a person with real talent."
"As for his personality, you know his father is our secretary, but he himself hasn't been known to have any negative comments."
"In terms of personal conduct, he is even more clean!"
Wei Hongtao said everything he needed to say, and all of it was positive. But when he got off work, Gu Yanli kicked him hard with his bicycle in the courtyard of the county party committee, knocking him to the ground.
Shen Tingci, a pure and innocent person, was dumbfounded when he was knocked over by a bicycle.
If he saw it correctly, the front of the car was lifted up and moved towards his knees with great force.
It seemed like he could only choose between falling down and breaking his leg today.
Being knocked to the ground, Shen Tingci looked at the person who hit him...
After Gu Yanli knocked the man over, the bicycle he had been holding loosened in his hands. The bicycle fell over, and he crawled forward several times. Then he stood up and said confidently, "Don't you know where you are walking?"
Shen Tingci “…”
Gu Yanli looked at him. "You again?"
"You're against me, aren't you?"
Shen Tingci “…”
Shouldn't this be his line?
Shen Tingci didn't avoid him this time, but chose to sit there and asked, "Shouldn't you apologize to me, comrade?"
Gu Yanli picked up his bicycle and laughed angrily, "Should I apologize to you?"
She pointed at the bicycle wheel and said, "My bicycle wheel is broken. I don't know how much it will cost to repair it. I apologize to you."
"I'm giving you face by not asking you to pay."
The two men bumped into each other and started arguing again, and soon people who had just come out of the office surrounded them.
Especially Wei Hongtao, he looked at Shen Tingci sitting on the ground, then looked at Gu Yanli who was holding the bicycle arrogantly, and immediately trotted over.
When he got to Gu Yanli, the first thing he whispered in Gu Yanli's ear was, "Are you trying too hard?"
When Shen Tingci saw Wei Hongtao, he asked, "Director Wei, is this your friend?"
Before Wei Hongtao could say anything, Gu Yanli asked in a nonchalant manner, "What?"
"You still want to threaten me?"
Shen Tingyu just came out and saw his brother sitting on the ground, and immediately ran over.
Shen Tingci was helped up.
He twisted his ankle.
Gu Yanli used too much strength.
"Brother, how are you?"
"Are you okay?" Shen Tingyu supported Shen Tingci and asked with concern.
Shen Tingci shook his head, “It’s okay, I just twisted my foot.”
Shen Tingyu immediately questioned Gu Yanli, "How can you ride a bike?"
Gu Yanli refused to give in. "Why don't you ask him how he got there?"
Shen Tingyu wanted to say something, but Shen Tingci raised his hand to stop him, and turned to Wei Hongtao, "Director Wei, if this is your friend, I want to say a few words to you."
Wei Hongtao glanced at Gu Yanli and nodded quickly.
Shen Tingci also glanced at Gu Yanli and said indifferently, "I can ignore what happened at noon."
