Unexpectedly
Just now, Chen Jin's speaking speed was getting faster and faster, and the people present could hardly keep up. Now that Chen Jin had left with the cat, the people who stayed behind sorted out what Chen Jin had just said. One by one, they didn't know whether they should look up at Li Xingyi and Bai Ling, or lower their heads to eat fruit and change the subject.
Zhang Sihua and the eldest senior brother were still confused. The eldest senior brother was not in the know and confirmed with Li Xingyi: "So, Chen Jin is your ex? You were cheating on her and your wife came to your house to throw dirty water on you, so she came here specifically to scold you?"
The boy next to the eldest senior brother's eyes darkened, and he tugged at the corner of the eldest senior brother's clothes, "Stop talking."
It seems like Senior Brother’s mouth never matches his brain. Senior Brother, you should just stay in the laboratory!
Bai Ling was anxious and angry. Chen Jin spoke too quickly. Now she came to her senses and wanted to explain, but Chen Jin had already left. She pursed her lips, and seeing that Li Xingyi, who also looked unhappy, didn't say anything, she wiped her tears in frustration and said, "That's not the case at all! Li Xingyi was about to break up with her, but she saw that her mother had just passed away, so she didn't have the heart to mention it to her. There was no love between them anyway..."
No one said anything, only Shen Baichuan said "Oh", and helped her summarize: "So, in fact, he didn't break up with Chen Jin, but got involved with you, saying that it was for her own good. Is that what you mean?"
"I......"
The people facing the door suddenly all looked towards the door. Bai Ling was also stunned and looked over. Chen Jin came over again without knowing when. He leaned against the door and looked like he was watching the fun. He stared at Bai Ling and Li Xing with a half-smile. "I said you two crazy couple can't say anything nice. If I hadn't turned around, you would have wanted to throw dirty water on me again, right?"
"Don't talk yet, let me talk first." Chen Jin had to speak in one go, and being interrupted would affect her energy. She started to curse, "I really appreciate you guys being so kind to me! You've been hooking up for a few months, and if my friends and I hadn't caught you guys fooling around in the cinema, I wouldn't have known about it until you got married. What do you mean you couldn't bear it? Do I need your kindness and pity? If you dare to talk about my mom again, I'll slap you in the face! What the hell, are you so shameless?!"
"Li Xingyi, what kind of man are you? Weren't you quite arrogant before? Now you dare not even say a word and let your wife speak to you in front of you? I really gave you face just now and didn't tear you apart completely."
"You keep making excuses one after another. You say that I am not motivated and not worthy of a noble graduate student like you because I don't continue my graduate studies, right? Then you turn around and tell your wife that you can't bear to break up with me? Bah! Bah! Are you a big piece of garbage made of gold? Do I have to cling to you just because you are dirty and smelly?"
"You're a whore but you still want to be a saint. Look how proud you are. Just saying "we are true love" makes you so moved that you don't even need to talk about morality anymore."
Chen Jin rolled his eyes, pouted his lips, pinched his throat and said, "We are true love", which almost made Shen Baichuan laugh out loud.
Seeing that the two men's faces were getting paler, she suspected that if she continued talking, she would make them faint from anger. She had said these words before, when Bai Ling came to her classroom. But at that time, because Bai Ling had a cousin who was the vice-president, and because Li Xingyi had a good family background, in the end she was just venting her anger. Chen Jin was still upset when he saw the two of them fighting again today in front of their fellow students, mentors, friends and students.
She didn’t perform well the first time!
"You better stay together forever. I don't believe that someone like you, Li Xingyi, is a great romantic. You can dump me without saying a word for someone who has no background. One day, when you have the chance to climb a higher branch, you can dump your current wife in the same way. And you, you have the brains to do research but not the brains to choose a man. Do you think you are proud of marrying a piece of trash?"
"Finally! If you dare to say something to me again, the day after tomorrow when you have class, I will hold a flyer distribution and money giving activity at the entrance of the cafeteria. If I can't kill you, do you really think you are the only ones who can talk?"
Chen Jin was full of malice and felt that she was now the vicious woman in the story, doing all kinds of bad things and killing people indiscriminately.
The final result was that Bai Ling rushed out covering his mouth, and Li Xingyi immediately chased after him.
Chen Jin put one hand on his waist and held the cat in the other, snorting, "They are so fast!"
Then he walked over, picked up his own cup of coffee, and said to the person who had a hard-to-describe expression, "I forgot to take the coffee. It will be a waste if I don't drink it."
Then he said considerately: "You guys continue chatting, don't let those two crazy men and women ruin your mood."
She giggled and said, "I won't stay for dinner. I can't stand any unpleasant words." She glanced at the two people who looked down on her.
cut! Does she need to be favored by these people?
Chen Jin walked away leisurely, and the people in the living room finally breathed a sigh of relief. But to be honest, after Li Xingyi and Bai Ling left, they no longer felt embarrassed. People from other majors looked at the two boys from the Physics Department, and curiosity was revealed in their eyes: Do you know anything else?
Shen Baichuan cleared his cough, picked up his cup of coffee, and said to Aunt Liu, who had been standing at the kitchen door, at a loss as to what to do: "Aunt Liu, please stay here to entertain the guests. I have something else to talk to Chen Jin about."
He nodded to the people present and said, "Excuse me, please feel free to do as you please."
When Shen Baichuan also went out, Aunt Liu wiped her hands and laughed, “You guys sit down first, I’ll go over and get you some cakes.”
The pace is fast.
Because she worked as a nanny in Professor Kong's home, she saw Chen Jin bringing fruits to Professor Kong's home to ask questions several times. She also often met him in the community and the vegetable market, so Aunt Liu was quite familiar with Chen Jin.
In her impression, Chen Jin was a gentle and well-mannered girl who spoke softly and was occasionally quite lively. All the children in the community liked to go to Chen Jin's house, especially the little granddaughter of Professor Kong.
I didn’t expect that! She really didn't expect it! Chen Jin's mouth is more talkative than those gossipy women in her village!
She was stunned by what she heard just now, and her feet seemed to be stuck with glue, unable to move at all. She just watched the whole process like this.
From now on, who in this community dares to quarrel with Chen Jin?
ah! That’s not right either! Which normal person would go out of their way to pick a fight with someone?
After Aunt Liu finished expressing her feelings about Chen Jin's mouth, she thought angrily: Aren't they the ones with no shame who actually did such a thing? ! No wonder Chen Jin wanted to curse people, he cursed well! How do you have the nerve to come here?
"Sister Liu, Sister Liu? What's wrong with you? You've been in a daze since you came back from there?" Aunt He asked in confusion, "What's the matter with Teacher Shen?"
Aunt Liu glanced at her dimly and said, "I really didn't expect that..."
If the sound of talking outside hadn't brought her back to her senses, she would have had a good talk with Xiao He. "I'll tell you after I'm done with today. I guarantee you'll be shocked!"
"No, if you have something to say, just tell me. Why are you keeping me in suspense?" Aunt He glared at Aunt Liu, which really piqued her curiosity.
Speaking of which, in the living room of Shen Baichuan's house, everyone else had left, but Zhang Sihua and the eldest senior brother were still scratching their heads and sighing, not knowing what to say.
Especially Zhang Sihua, her new friend just went back home like that, and she wanted to ask what happened, but it seemed that it was not appropriate for her to go to the person's house now. Besides, that teacher Shen who looked extremely serious had also passed by, and she didn't want to see his cold face.
Everyone raised their heads, looked at each other, and laughed, "Eat fruit, eat fruit."
After a while, a boy studying chemistry said with some envy: "That student Chen, oh no, Teacher Chen, is really eloquent." He then lamented that he was always extremely nervous when giving a report, "If I had Teacher Chen's mouth, I wouldn't be afraid of being scolded by my supervisor."
More than being afraid, he felt he could even scold the teacher who was finding fault with him after listening to his report: It's easy for you to say that, just do it yourself!
The boy next to the eldest senior student corrected him softly, "Teacher Chen is quick-witted, not stupid." Who would use such a sharp tongue when the tutor is scolding people? Do you think you haven’t been scolded enough?
The physics student who just looked down on Chen Jin's academic qualifications still looked down on Chen Jin's behavior now, but he also knew that he was here as a guest today, and was afraid that Chen Jin would hear it later. He subconsciously glanced at the door and said, "She is venting her anger this way, and she is not afraid of Professor Song getting angry. If she does this, how can Professor Song dare to invite her for dinner in the future..."
Most people nodded in agreement. It's refreshing, but a bit impulsive. It will be difficult to continue associating with Professor Song's family in the future.
Zhang Sihua was puzzled. "Didn't she say that? She was a counselor just to kill time. She doesn't hang out in your academic circle, so she probably doesn't care."
"She lives alone in a small western-style building, so her family must be well-off."
The boy next to the eldest senior brother also nodded, "I heard a little bit about it. He is very rich. He has dozens of buildings for rent."
Zhang Sihua's eyes widened. "Dozens of buildings? Did you hear me right? She said her family doesn't have much money, but this is enough for her."
"That's what I heard. She's the only one in her family, so isn't that enough for her?"
The others looked subtle. Forget it, it’s other people’s business and has nothing to do with them.
——
Chen Jin carried the orange tree home, put it on the sofa, took a sip of coffee, and sighed, "Today's coffee is a little sweet."
Just when she was about to ask Daju what she wanted to eat, the doorbell rang. She became alert: Could it be that the crazy couple were so angry that they came to the house again to get scolded?
As soon as she went out, she saw Shen Baichuan, who was also holding a cup of coffee, and waved at her.
For the sake of today's coffee, Chen Jin went out to open the door.
"You're running away now?"
Chen Jin turned around and saw that Shen Baichuan had just sat down on the single sofa with his back to the door, and her big orange jumped onto Shen Baichuan and lay on his thighs, like a piece of coffee cloth spread out on a cup. Shen Baichuan took the opportunity to reach out and stroke its fur...
The action was so skillful that she suspected that the man and the cat often mingled together behind her back.
"It's boring to stay there. Come and hide here with you." Shen Baichuan looked up at her and saw that she was quite happy. He found the remote control to turn on the TV, and took out a lot of snacks from the cupboard and piled them on the coffee table. Then he went to the refrigerator and buried his head in it for a long time, but he still hadn't chosen what to drink.
Chen Jin pulled out a bottle of soda, glanced at him, and said, "This is the last bottle. You should drink coffee instead."
After watching TV for a while, neither of them said anything else. Chen Jin spoke first, "I thought you came here to ask me how to explain this to Professor Song."
"What's there to explain? It's normal for young people to not get along and quarrel. " With just one sentence, she was able to characterize the incident as a minor quarrel caused by different ideas among young people, which was not worth mentioning.
Shen Baichuan leaned back relaxedly, thinking that Chen Jin's sofa was more comfortable to sit on than his, so he asked her where she bought it.
"It's in the old furniture store in Dongcheng District. I can't buy it anymore. The furniture factory closed down, and I got there when they were clearing out their stock. This is the second to last set of sofas of this style. Someone else took the last set away."
"Oh, what a pity." Shen Baichuan glanced at the sign on the side of the armrest, which read "Nan'an State-owned Sofa Factory".
Chen Jin is now feeling refreshed physically and mentally, and feels that Shen Baichuan can be considered a friend with whom he can share gossip, so he can’t help but share his happy mood at this moment.
"I didn't want to have a falling out with them in this situation, but I couldn't help it. The more I watched them, the angrier I got. I thought, I didn't do anything wrong, so why was I the one who was angry? The people who did something wrong didn't repent, and they still had a good reputation outside. I really couldn't stand it at all. If I don't let it go, I'll have to slap myself twice when I wake up in the middle of the night. Besides, when I deal with people, do I have to consider whether the occasion is appropriate for them? If I go back to the village and tell others about this, the villagers will scold me for being stupid."
"Whatever Professor Song thinks, well, let her think it. I don't think I can mix with people in their academic circle. Oh, did you see the two men who just sat on the sofa opposite me? When they heard that I was a counselor, their noses were flying to the sky. Two crazy guys! They should be thankful that they didn't meet me as their counselor. At least I should give them some education lessons and teach them the principles of life."
After saying that, Chen Jin gulped down two gulps of cold soda.
"The vice president of our college is the cousin of that woman. Well, if I am given a hard time because of this, I will quit. I will get ready to clean up and collect rent. I can also occasionally find someone to go to Qiaoxi Village to see what's going on. When I save up enough money, I will use my land to build a building."
"It's not a big deal. I just have to get this off my chest!"
There was a loud "boom" outside, and today's rain started to fall as soon as it was supposed to. A cool breeze blew in from the door, making people feel more comfortable.
Chen Jin concluded: "As a human being, you only live for a few decades. I have the conditions. I have good looks and knowledge. The most important thing is that I have money. I can't let myself be wronged. Right?"
She has always had a good understanding of herself, and what she said was not just bragging.
Shen Baichuan's eyes at this moment seemed to be hiding the stars in the sky, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, the smile could not be hidden at all, and he nodded in agreement, "Yes!"
The longer I know him, the more I feel that Chen Jin is a treasure. There really are people who live like the wind that comes and goes freely and briskly, making people want to follow him.
After a moment of silence, Chen Jin couldn't help but chuckle, "Did you see the expressions on their faces just now? They were either staring blankly or crying. They were like this two years ago, and they are still like this two years later. They really haven't improved at all."
Unlike her, two years ago she was basically dismissed with just a "crazy man and woman". Now that she has seen more things in the village, she has made a lot of progress.
"Oh, I'm going to treat Aunt Zhou and Aunt Ke Xin to dinner someday." Chen Jin chuckled and said, "I haven't told you about them, have I? They are the two most capable people in our village."
In the words of the villagers, they are actually ranked first and second as "evil women", and this has been recognized by everyone.
Chen Jin suddenly realized something, the smile on his face slowly disappeared, and his expression became serious.
Shen Baichuan also gradually stopped laughing and wanted to ask her what was wrong, but she saw her right hand pointing at her left hand...
Chen Jin counted on his fingers and counted the houses in order from the beginning to the end of the village, but he couldn't find the third one!
Thinking about my progress in the past two years and my current reputation in the village...
