"What? Are you all too cowardly to admit your mistakes? Since you've already said you were all wrong, why don't you think about apologizing to that comrade?"
“Our Ya Tong is young and doesn’t know any better. Are you all young too?”
Qian Youren immediately adopted a fatherly tone, and every word he said was filled with hatred.
No matter how much those people wanted to give him face, they couldn't hold back after hearing these words.
Is this man out of his mind?
He actually said such things for a woman he's not even married to yet; isn't he afraid of being laughed at if word got out?
"Director Qian, we're giving you face by not saying anything too harsh, but don't think we're easy to bully."
"We all know who's right and who's wrong, and the person involved is right here. Why don't you invite them out and ask them properly? You can't just say whatever you want. If you say we're wrong, then we're wrong. If you say we deserve to die, are we supposed to die?"
That was a rather serious statement, but Qian Youren's meaningful look clearly indicated that he agreed with her.
The person being watched felt a sudden jolt in their heart.
Could it really be true?
This person really... wanted to kill her?
Just as they were arguing fiercely, Xia Anyan and the other two came out of the house.
Zhou Yatong, who was in Qian Youren's arms, stiffened slightly and snuggled even closer to him.
Qian Youren patted the person in his arms, then looked up at Xia Anyan.
When he saw Xia Anyan's appearance clearly, he was stunned.
He had seen quite a few good-looking women, and Zhou Yatong was no exception.
But none of those people could compare to Xia Anyan.
It's not just because she's good-looking, but also because of her aura.
"Comrade, may I ask who you are?" Qian Youren deliberately lowered his voice, making it much gentler.
Everyone noticed his change and couldn't help but sneer, their eyes filled with mockery as they looked at Zhou Yatong.
Zhou Yatong also sensed something was wrong. She looked up and saw Qian Youren staring intently at her.
Zhou Yatong's mind was completely blank; all she could hear was a roaring sound: "Qian Youren, what are you doing?"
"That's the person who bullied me! Didn't you just say you'd protect me? What's wrong with you now? Have you no shame?"
Qian Youren frowned, somewhat displeased, after being scolded.
This is in public. Zhou Yatong is showing him no respect. Where will he put his face in the future?
"Ya Tong, how can you talk like that? Judging from this comrade's face, she is gentle and generous. She would never cause you trouble. You must have said something wrong, which is why she came here."
"You should apologize to that person right away, and then stop causing trouble."
Zhou Yatong was suddenly transformed into a clown.
She found it utterly ridiculous.
Why? Why is this happening?
"Qian Youren, I want to break off our engagement. I don't want to be with you anymore."
Qian Youren was also provoked by what she said.
Even if it's about announcing the engagement, shouldn't it be him who says so? When did it become a woman's turn to annul the engagement?
Besides, he now has a better target, so why would he still be interested in this troublemaking woman?
Thinking it over, Qian Youren raised his hand and slapped Zhou Yatong across the face.
The two of them started fighting almost instantly.
Xia Anyan and the others didn't say a word.
Mother Gu curled her lip in disgust and pulled her daughter-in-law back two steps.
"Ayan, those two people must be mentally ill. We don't want to associate with people like that."
Gu's mother wasn't stupid; how could she not see what Qian Youren was thinking?
This guy actually took a fancy to her daughter-in-law, he deserves to die!
After Zhou Yatong had been beaten enough, Qian Youren snorted coldly and straightened his Zhongshan suit.
Then, he walked towards Xia Anyan with a smile.
"Comrade, hello, my surname is Qian, and my name is Qian Youren."
"I'm really sorry about what happened today. I didn't expect this woman to be so bold as to cause trouble at your place. As you just saw, I've already taught her a lesson, and she knows she was wrong. Look, I'll have her apologize to you, and then we'll consider this matter over, okay?"
Xia Anyan did not answer his question, but instead looked at Zhou Yatong over there.
Zhou Yatong felt extremely embarrassed.
Only then did she realize what she had just done.
Even if she really breaks up with Qian Youren, her father will not let her off the hook.
If this matter cannot be resolved today, the manager will fire her.
More and more people are going to the countryside now, and she has several brothers and sisters.
She was able to get a job at Friendship Store only after her parents pulled strings.
If she is fired, she will not have a second chance and will have no choice but to go to the countryside.
She didn't want to go to the countryside, didn't want to become a peasant.
She wiped away her tears, went to Xia Anyan, and knelt down immediately: "Comrade, I know I was wrong. I shouldn't have scolded you or caused trouble. Please forgive me, okay?"
Xia Anyan reacted quickly, pulling Gu's mother aside.
Oh my god, that was terrifying!
If he really accepted her kneeling, he would have no one to complain to.
What era are we living in? Still using this kind of trick? Aren't you afraid of being reported?
"I don't think you realize you've done anything wrong, otherwise why would you try to frame me?" Xia Anyan said sarcastically.
Zhou Yatong looked up in surprise.
She's serious this time, so why won't people believe her?
Qian Youren's eyes flickered. How could he not understand the meaning behind those words?
He cursed under his breath as an idiot before speaking coldly, "Who told you to kneel down? Get up now, you shameless thing."
Zhou Yatong also realized the problem.
She shakily got up from the ground, carefully walked up to Xia Anyan, and bowed slightly: "Comrade, I know I was wrong. I didn't mean to. I apologize to you. I'm sorry."
"I'm willing to compensate you, and I hope you can forgive me, okay?"
She was sobbing, looking as if she had been wronged.
Xia Anyan gave a cold laugh.
"Do you feel wronged by apologizing to me?"
Zhou Yatong froze, then quickly shook her head: "No, that's not it."
"If that's not the case, why are you putting on this act?"
“If you stand here crying like this, what will passersby think? What will guests think of me?”
"Are you saying I'm abusing my power? Or are you saying we're ganging up on the few?"
"You're the one who did wrong, but now you're the one acting all pitiful. You get all the good stuff, and I have to take the blame for everything, right?"
