Chapter 167 They really went to great lengths to harm her.
She actually got a share too?
Cen Yan stared at Wang Manman as if she had seen a ghost, smiling at her silently without reaching out to take the bowl of brown sugar water.
Wang Manman's eyes were wet. "Cen Yan, I know we had some unpleasantness before, and I also know that I said something reckless in the village committee office that caused you to lose the 100 jin of grain allocated by the production team. It's understandable that you resent me, but I really think it's better to resolve conflicts than to let them fester. That's why I came to bring you brown sugar water to make amends and apologize."
"Or do you suspect that I tampered with the brown sugar water? But the other comrades drank it and were fine."
Cen Yan noticed that many eyes were being cast in her direction, including some of her fellow villagers from the production team.
To maintain appearances, Cen Yan smiled faintly, "I'm not thirsty yet, I brought my own water, so you can drink this brown sugar water yourself."
Wang Manman immediately changed to a heartbroken expression, "Cen Yan, you really do resent me, hate me, and blame me for our previous conflict. Otherwise, why wouldn't you accept my kindness?"
At this moment, some villagers nearby couldn't stand it anymore and quickly advised, "Nurse Cen, although Wang Zhiqing is usually quite arrogant, he doesn't actually have a bad heart, and he doesn't have any deep-seated hatred. He has already apologized to you in front of so many people, so please give him a way out."
"Yes, teamwork is important. Nurse Cen, if you keep acting tough, people will say you're in the wrong."
Wang Manman said magnanimously, "Comrades, please don't say that. I offended Comrade Cen Yan, and it's only right that she blames me. I shouldn't have spoken so carelessly, doubting her medical skills before..."
Cen Yan curled her lips and, seeing Wang Manman's magnanimous appearance, finally understood what she was up to.
If there's nothing wrong with this brown sugar water, she'll twist her head down and let Wang Manman kick it around like a ball!
In order to force her to drink the bowl of problematic brown sugar water, Wang Manman even started using tactics. If she drank it, it would be exactly what she wanted, allowing Wang Manman's scheme to succeed. If she didn't drink it, Wang Manman would stir up trouble from the sidelines, and others would have a preconceived notion that she was petty and unwilling to forgive her.
Of course, she really wouldn't forgive Wang Manman, and she didn't care whether others thought she was petty. She just wanted to see how Wang Manman would put on this show.
Regardless of whether the brown sugar water contains sleeping pills, poison, or any other filthy drugs, the spiritual spring water can completely neutralize them.
She really nailed Wang Manman's performance!
Cen Yan did not expose Wang Manman's thoughts. She calmly reached out and took the enamel bowl. "Wang Zhiqing's offer was kind. It would be impolite of me to refuse. Wang Zhiqing is right. It is better to resolve conflicts than to create them. We don't have any deep hatred. Let's use this bowl of brown sugar water to let bygones be bygones."
As she spoke, Cen Yan took a small sip of brown sugar water, then gulped down the rest of the water in the bowl before picking up the water bottle next to her and pouring herself a mouthful of spiritual spring water.
She smacked her lips and said, "The brown sugar water that Wang Zhiqing made is really sweet."
It was both sweet and cloying; Wang Manman really went to great lengths to harm her. Unfortunately, in the face of the spiritual spring water, Wang Manman's little tricks were destined to fail.
Wang Manman glanced at the empty enamel bowl and secretly rejoiced: It's done!
She laughed and said, "You've all worked so hard for the production team, I can't just use some inferior sugar water to fool you. I won't disturb Comrade Cen Yan's free medical consultation for the villagers any longer, I'll go distribute the sugar water to the other comrades."
Cen Yan slowly smiled and said, "Okay, thank you for your hard work, Wang Zhiqing." Then she told the villagers to continue queuing up for the free medical consultation.
