Chapter 49
Seeing that Jiang Huihan finally gave in, Wang Lijuan couldn't wait to say, "I know you know Principal Cai. I want you to go and tell Principal Cai that there are misunderstandings between me and Deputy Head Xu. We are innocent. Those rumors are fabricated. I am also a victim. Please ask her to find out the truth."
After a pause, she looked at Jiang Suihan meaningfully and said, "In fact, the best way is for you to come forward in person. As long as you can prove it, those rumors will naturally fall apart."
It's a nice thought, why isn't she just daydreaming?
That's not right, she is dreaming now.
Jiang Suihan propped her chin with one hand and said nonchalantly, "How come I didn't know that Principal Cai and I knew each other before? Comrade Wang, you overestimate me. I met Principal Cai on the day of the exam. If this is what you call an acquaintance, then it can barely be considered an acquaintance."
"As for the favor you mentioned, I'm sorry I can't do anything about it. As the saying goes, those who are innocent will be innocent. Since you said it was a rumor, then let time prove it. Some things seem more like a cover-up the more you explain them."
Since you insist that you are innocent, then fine, just wait and see. Over time, everyone will naturally know what kind of person you are.
After listening to it, Wu Guihua finally understood the purpose of the two Wang sisters coming to the Xu family.
She couldn't help but frown. These two people took advantage of Xu Zhao's absence to bully Xiao Jiang. No, she couldn't just watch Xiao Jiang being bullied.
"Wang's little sister, please stop making things difficult for Xiao Jiang. How can you explain this kind of thing clearly? If you think about it carefully, Xiao Jiang is the one who got into trouble. You should solve the problem yourself. Why are you looking for Xiao Jiang? What Xiao Jiang said is not wrong. This kind of groundless thing can only be discussed after the matter has died down. Naturally, no one will talk about it anymore."
How could Wang Lijuan not know the method Wu Guihua suggested? But the problem now was that there was no time left. If she waited any longer, she would lose her job, and no one would believe her explanation. Only Jiang Suihan could step in. She had to persuade Jiang Suihan to agree today.
She was very terrified, fearing that something unexpected would happen, and would never allow anything to happen in reality that was inconsistent with what was in the book.
"Comrade Jiang, you can't just stand by and watch her die. You are also a woman. It is really painful to marry a man you don't know. I believe you can understand me. I swear I really don't have any thoughts about Deputy Captain Xu."
Jiang Suihan stared at Wang Lijuan intently, which made Wang Lijuan feel a little guilty. She turned her head away slightly and did not dare to look at her.
Jiang Huihan complained in her heart that the oath was just lip service, and who would believe such nonsense.
"Well, I think it's more credible to write it down in black and white. Why don't you write it down and say that you have no romantic thoughts about Xu Zhao and will never have anything to do with him in the future. Otherwise, you will be lonely and sick for the rest of your life."
Wang Liying immediately got angry and glared at Jiang Huihan angrily: "Are you so vicious? What kind of wicked thing did my little sister do that you have to curse her like this?"
Jiang Suihan ignored Wang Liying and just looked at Wang Lijuan quietly, asking her to express her opinion.
Don’t you want to perform? I’ll give you the stage to perform to your heart’s content.
Wang Lijuan took a step back and pretended to be hurt: "Comrade Jiang, you still don't believe me. I just told you that what happened that day was just a misunderstanding and a rumor. What else do you want me to do in order to help me?"
Sure enough, the result of the test was as she expected.
Jiang Suihan sneered, her eyes revealing a bit of disdain: "I also said, as long as you write it down and sign it, I can consider helping you to make it clear with Principal Cai."
Wang Lijuan bit her lower lip, hesitant. If she really wrote a letter of guarantee as Jiang Huihan said and signed her name on it, when she and Xu Zhao got married in the future, this incident would definitely be brought up and talked about by others. Then, how would she still have any face?
But if she doesn't do as she is told, Jiang Suhan will definitely not help her. If she doesn't help, she will have no job and no reason to stay at her second sister's house. This is another vicious circle.
When you are under someone's roof, you have to bow your head. There is no need to bother with someone who is destined to die. Just wait another half a year, and after half a year, everything in the Xu family, including Xu Zhao, will be hers.
A dark light flashed in Wang Lijuan's eyes. She gritted her teeth and said embarrassedly, "Okay, I'll write it."
Wang Liying grabbed Wang Lijuan's arm and looked at her with dismay: "Why write it? They are obviously teasing you and think you are funny. If you really write this nonsense, what will happen to your reputation in the future? Will you be able to get married in the future?"
She glared at Jiang Huihan angrily, "Don't push your luck. You can't keep your man to yourself, so you blame my little sister. Are you so unreasonable? You just relied on your pretty face to trick Xu Zhao into marrying you. Using sex to seduce people is not a long-term solution. I'm waiting to see the day when you grow old and are abandoned."
Even though someone has taken advantage of her, she is still too stupid to talk back. If the occasion wasn't wrong, Wang Lijuan would have wanted to slap the little sister to wake her up. A girl who is too weak will only make people think that you are easy to bully.
Jiang Suihan shrugged nonchalantly and spread her hands: "I was just joking with you guys, don't take it so seriously. Okay, I've made it clear, please go back. Goodbye."
Wang Lijuan took two steps forward to block the way and said hesitantly, "What about the matter with Principal Cai?"
Jiang Suihan smiled helplessly: "I'm sorry, I'm powerless. I can't help you with this. Please go back."
There was no way Wang Lijuan would let Jiang Huihan go like this. She pleaded, "You want a letter of guarantee? I'll write it. I'll write it now."
She was anxious to find a pen and paper, and she wanted to write the guarantee letter right away.
Jiang Suihan dodged Wang Lijuan's outstretched hand, her face darkening: "It was just a joke, you don't have to take it seriously. I believe in Xu Zhao and myself, and I don't need to use other external things to protect the relationship between us."
He leaned close to Wang Lijuan's ear, lowered his voice, and said slowly, word by word: "If it's not yours, it's not yours. There's no point in snatching it away, right?"
She stared at Wang Lijuan's expression intently, and saw her glance quickly, a guilty look flashed across her face, but in the blink of an eye, she quickly regained her composure.
Wang Lijuan was a little uneasy. She didn't dare to look at Jiang Huihan's eyes. She secretly wondered if Jiang Huihan knew something. Did she have the same dream as her, dreaming about what would happen in the future?
She is the heroine of the book. Jiang Suhan is just a passerby who appears in a few chapters. No one can take away her position as the heroine.
In a trance, Wang Lijuan shouted to Jiang Suihan: "No, Xu Zhao is mine."
As soon as she finished speaking, the people present were dumbfounded and looked at Wang Lijuan in surprise.
This was totally unexpected for everyone. She was trying so hard to clear herself just now, but now she blew herself up! ?
Compared to the surprised and contemptuous expressions of others, Jiang Huihan was the calmest among them. She raised her eyebrows, her eyes were deep, and her expression was somewhat intriguing.
Wang Liying's face turned blue and then white, and then white and then blue again. She wished she could pry open Wang Lijuan's head immediately to see if it was filled with grass. How could a girl say such words, in front of so many people? Do you still want to get married in the future? ?
She seriously suspected that her younger sister was mentally ill. It was shameless to like a married man, and she even admitted it openly. What else could she be but mentally ill?
Feeling sick, embarrassed, and ashamed, Wang Liying pulled Wang Lijuan behind her and said with a red face, "She is not feeling well today. She just said nonsense. Don't take it seriously. We have something else to do at home, so we will go back first."
I shouldn't have come to the Xu family today and caused such an embarrassing incident.
He grabbed Wang Lijuan's wrist, dragged her staggeringly, and turned away, unable to suppress his anger as he walked: "Are you out of your mind? What are you talking about? Come home with me, or I'll punish you."
Wang Lijuan already knew that she had said the wrong thing. She opened and closed her mouth, her mind was in a mess, and for a moment she couldn't think of how to justify what she had just said.
She was very annoyed, but also secretly happy. She couldn't help but look up at Jiang Huihan to see how she would react.
Jiang Suihan glanced at her expressionlessly, with neither sadness nor joy. She was not as angry and frustrated as she had imagined, nor was she nervous and frightened. It was as if she had not heard what she had just said. She was very calm and composed.
Wang Lijuan's expression twisted for a moment. She hated Jiang Huihan's calmness and fake indifference the most. Even her love rival came to provoke her, but she was still so nonchalant. Who was she trying to fool?
Wang Liying quickly covered Wang Lijuan's mouth with her hand, fearing that she would say something frightening again. Her little heart was still frightened and had not recovered yet. She couldn't bear to be frightened a second time.
Wu Guihua shuddered, couldn't help swallowing, and stammered, "Did I hear it right? What Wang Lijuan said was true?"
Good job!
What happened today was definitely the most jaw-dropping news she had heard in the past six months.
What are young girls thinking about nowadays? They are so bold!
There's nothing wrong with liking someone, but it depends on the situation. It's wrong to challenge the moral bottom line. The girl from the Wang family actually said such words in front of Jiang Suhan. She is so shameless.
She deliberately provoked the original wife, trying to alienate the relationship between Xu Zhao and Jiang Huihan, and then she took advantage of the situation?
This girl is too cunning. She only knows the appearance of a person but not his heart. Who would have thought that the rumors that spread throughout the entire family compound a few days ago were actually true? She had previously stood up for Wang Lijuan and thought that the girl might have been misunderstood. Now it seems that she was just being too sentimental.
"I guess so."
Jiang Suihan didn't expect that Wang Lijuan's psychological quality was so poor. She was so stimulated that she spoke out her true feelings in a trance.
Wu Guihua sighed. Fortunately, she was the one who came today. If it was Chen Xiaohong and the others who came, there would be no way they could hide today's incident from the people in the family compound.
"Don't worry, Xiao Jiang. I won't say anything. I won't tell anyone about this. Don't be angry with Xu Zhao when he comes back. As you said, outstanding people are often coveted by others. I think the girl from the Wang family may not have thought it through for a while. After a long time, she knew she had no chance, so she gave up."
Jiang Huihan pursed her lips and smiled: "I understand, I won't be upset with Xu Zhao."
However, she didn't think that retreating when faced with difficulties was what Mrs. Wu said. Wang Lijuan seemed very confident that she would succeed. She said "Xu Zhao is hers" with such conviction, as if she had already predicted that it would happen in the future.
What makes her so confident?
Jiang Suihan rested his chin on his hand and thought hard. He had a bold guess that might explain it all.
Time travel? Rebirth?
There were many similar plots in the novels she had read before, so she did not rule out this possibility, but she had no way to verify this speculation now.
Do you want to think of a way to test Wang Lijuan?
Seeing Jiang Suihan looking sad, Wu Guihua thought she was upset about what happened just now. Indeed, any woman who encountered such a thing, when her husband was coveted by another woman, would not be able to remain calm.
"Don't be too angry, Xiao Jiang. Just live your life well with Xu Zhao. Don't pay attention to those messy troubles outside, lest they affect your mood. Your Xu Zhao is not that kind of person. The girl from the Wang family is just wasting her efforts and will not get any good results."
Jiang Suihan came back to her senses and thanked Wu Guihua for her kindness: "It's getting late, so I won't keep you here. I also ask you not to tell anyone about what happened today. Our family doesn't want to be tainted by any rumors."
Wu Guihua expressed her understanding and agreed readily. On the way back, she was still thinking that Xu Zhao had always been lucky in love before, and he was still so popular after getting married. With this comparison, she suddenly felt that her man's appearance was quite safe.
Someone saw Wang Liying on the road and wanted to greet her with a smile, but she had a stern face, frowned, and looked angry. Wang Liying's younger sister followed behind her with her head down, not saying a word.
What happened to the two sisters of the Wang family? Something happened?
Passersby were confused and watched the two people walk by in confusion.
After slamming the door, Wang Liying turned around and raised her hand suddenly. However, when she saw the stubborn expression on her younger sister's face, she slowly put her hand down again.
Wang Lijuan raised her head and said, "Second sister, hit me."
Wang Liying was so angry that she didn't know what to say. She gritted her teeth and said, "If you weren't my sister, I would really give you a big slap. Do you know what you said at Xu's house just now? How can you, a girl who hasn't even married yet, say such shameless things!"
"Before, you told me that you didn't like Xu Zhao, and I believed you. I explained to everyone and told them not to doubt you. Now, you've slapped me in the face. Xu Zhao is married and has a wife, but you're still thinking about him. He's so good, so good that you'd give up your face to be with him."
Wang Lijuan didn't know how to explain the reason to her second sister, and she couldn't explain it clearly. She lowered her head and admitted her mistake, saying dryly: "Second sister, I'm sorry."
Wang Liying smiled coldly, her tone sarcastic: "No, you didn't let me down, you let yourself down. You gave up your good reputation and had to admit in front of so many people that you had bad intentions towards Xu Zhao. Do you think you are great and noble?"
She was really mad and couldn't figure out what her little sister was thinking. Her little sister was not like this before. She was a very shy and quiet person.
"Did someone say something to you that made you think this way?"
Wang Lijuan shook her head: "No, I admit that I am a little interested in Xu Zhao, but I won't compete with Jiang Huihan for him."
If we want to snatch it, it’s not now. We have to wait at least half a year. By that time, Jiang Suhan will be gone. What’s the point of fussing about a dead person?
Wang Liying couldn't help but rolled her eyes. "Even though she's a family member, I still want to be fair. What can you use to compete with Jiang Suihan? You're not as pretty as her, and you don't have as high an education as her. She's also from the city. I heard her father is a university professor. We're just farmers. Can you compete with her?"
I must dissuade my little sister from thinking this as soon as possible and not let her continue like this. Otherwise, it will be difficult to resolve the situation later. If all else fails, I can only send her back to her hometown.
Wang Lijuan stamped her feet and said angrily, "Second sister, you are too good at letting others gain prestige and destroying your own ambition. Am I so bad that I don't have any advantages at all?"
She admitted that she was indeed not as good as Jiang Suhan in some aspects, but it was not as bad as her second sister said. She still had her own advantages.
Wang Liying said bluntly: "You may have a chance of winning when compared with others, but compared with Jiang Suihan, it is called overestimating one's own ability, and there is another important point."
Wang Lijuan: “What?”
Wang Liying: "Xu Zhao doesn't like you. No matter how much you do, he will only find you annoying or even hate you. Maybe he is already fed up with you."
Wang Lijuan felt a lump in her heart and was choked.
Second sister was right. Xu Zhao ignored her and avoided her like the plague.
Wang Liying patted Wang Lijuan on the shoulder and patiently advised her: "Listen to my second sister's advice. It's hard to find a three-legged man, but there are many two-legged men. I will definitely find you a man who is as good as you, Xu Zhao, so that you can marry in style."
Wang Lijuan was extremely depressed and responded reluctantly. She didn't want to go back to her hometown and had to stay in the army.
Seeing her younger sister's impatience, Wang Liying didn't say anything more. She forced herself to suppress the worry in her heart and secretly decided to keep a close eye on her younger sister in the future and not let her mess around again.
After dinner, Jiang Suihan washed up early and went to bed to read.
Xu Zhao wiped his hair casually and picked up a book to read.
Half an hour passed, and Jiang Suihan kept staring at the book. She didn't look at him or say a word to him.
Xu Zhao couldn't bear it anymore and turned to look at her: "What's wrong with you today?"
When I came back, I felt something was wrong. I didn't talk much to him during dinner and he seemed to be indifferent.
Jiang Huihan didn't even raise her head and replied calmly: "Nothing, I'm fine."
Zhang Xiangqian once said that women always say one thing and mean another, and if they say something is very good, it is actually not good. He didn't remember making her angry today, and she ignored him for no reason. There must be something wrong.
Xu Zhao changed his train of thought: "Who did you meet today?"
If it's not him, then it's someone else.
Jiang Suihan was no longer in the mood to read, so she threw the book aside, turned around, sat cross-legged, folded her arms, and looked very imposing.
She glanced at him and said sarcastically, "It's nothing. I just met a girl who was in love with you. She confessed her love to you in front of me. I was so moved that I almost cried when I heard her."
Xu Zhao choked and his eyes widened subconsciously: "Don't joke, besides you, even the mosquitoes around me are male."
What the hell! ?
Where did this girl come from?
He also said some ambiguous words in front of Jiang Huihan. Is he trying to sow discord?
Jiang Huihan couldn't help laughing, then realized that she was still quarreling with Xu Zhao, and immediately restrained herself: "Men's words are deceitful, and only a fool would believe them."
Xu Zhao felt that he was totally wronged. It was too hasty to accuse him of such a crime without any basis.
"At least give me a chance to explain. I don't know what's going on. Even if you sentence me to death, you should let me die with a clear conscience."
Jiang Suihan looked at him and began to tell him in detail what happened during the day, without missing a word or adding any exaggeration, and was very objective.
"Anyway, that's it. Your admirer openly expressed to me her determination to get you in front of me. I was deeply shocked. You, a married man, are really charming. The girl is obsessed with you. I admire you."
She actually knew that Xu Zhao could not be blamed, as he was also implicated innocently. However, the incident was caused by him. She was sitting at home when the "mistress" came to provoke her. Anyone would feel uncomfortable, holding their anger and feeling uncomfortable if they didn't express it, and they couldn't sleep at night.
Xu Zhao knew that the matter was serious when he heard the sarcastic tone. He took Jiang Suihan's hand and said seriously, "Don't be angry. I don't want anyone else except you."
Jiang Huihan raised her eyes and met his clear and bright eyes. She pursed her lips, her face slightly reddened, and said in a small voice: "I know."
She was not angry with Xu Zhao. The little girl just wanted him to coax her and say nice things to make her happy.
Xu Zhao raised his hand and tucked the strands of hair on her forehead behind her ears, coaxing her in a low voice: "There's no need to care about people who have nothing to do with us. Don't keep things in your heart when you encounter something that you don't want to start. We agreed to be honest with each other. Your business is my business."
A dark light flashed in his eyes. He particularly hated those self-righteous and ignorant people. He didn't know where they got the confidence and courage to get in between him and Jiang Huihan. He really thought he was one of those hungry men who would eat anything.
He kept making up stories again and again, causing Jiang Huihan to feel wronged and sad. He really thought he was a little cat without temper! ?
Jiang Suihan leaned in his arms, playing with his hands from time to time. Compared with her hands, his hands were very big, and the contrast was quite obvious with his big hands supporting her small hands.
She suddenly wanted to know what he was thinking at that time, and couldn't help asking him: "If the person you were engaged to was not me, would you still choose to get married?"
Xu Zhao was stunned for a moment, and curled his lips unconsciously: "What if I say yes?"
Jiang Suihan immediately shook off his hand, feeling indescribably depressed. She said "oh", lowered her head and stopped talking.
The more she thought about Xu Zhao marrying another woman and having children, the more uncomfortable she felt, and her eyes involuntarily became red.
Xu Zhao lifted her chin and saw that her eyes were red and she was pursing her lips. She looked so wronged and sad that she seemed like she was going to cry in the next second.
Oops, that’s a joke!
He touched the corner of her eyes, his tone was more gentle than ever before: "Okay, don't be sad, I was just teasing you, don't take it too seriously, okay?"
He is not a person who likes to compromise in relationships, otherwise he would not have waited until he was in his twenties and his family was getting anxious, but he still refused to get married.
It’s because that person is Jiang Suihan, and it happens to be Jiang Suihan.
Jiang Huihan gritted her teeth and glared at him, feeling ashamed and embarrassed. She felt so humiliated that she almost cried in front of him over something that didn't even happen. It was so embarrassing.
She wasn't such a pretentious person before, but maybe because she knew someone was pampering her, she started to become spoiled.
She straightened up and quickly bit Xu Zhao's chin.
Humph, I told you to make me angry.
His chin was a little numb, but not painful. Xu Zhao pinched Jiang Huihan's right cheek and asked, "Will you bite me?"
Jiang Huihan was pinched on the face by him, and her words were a little unclear: "I bit you, bite you back."
Xu Zhao suddenly moved closer, lowered his head and bit her lips, but seemed unsatisfied, so he lowered his head again and rubbed his lips.
I heard his deep voice: "Close your eyes."
Jiang Huihan subconsciously closed her eyes and unconsciously followed his rhythm. Their breathing intertwined, and the two of them fell on the bed.
In a daze, she suddenly remembered that they were having a quarrel, so how did she get knocked down all of a sudden? This development was not right.
She struggled to get up, but to Xu Zhao, this little force was just a tickle. He grabbed both of her hands and lifted them above her head, then pressed down on her again.
