"Indeed, there are only three of you in the dormitory today. I think the one who touched my things must be one of you three, but..." Lin Yanbai kept it a secret.
"It's very easy to find out who it is. Just smell the scent on you and you'll know. After all, the fragrance definitely won't evaporate so quickly!" As he said that, he moved closer to smell it.
Zheng Xinxin, standing by, quietly clenched her hands and said nervously, "Tsk, what do you mean by smelling it? The supply and marketing cooperative has so many vanishing creams, it's not like you're the only one who can afford it!"
I've been waiting for you to say this! Lin Yanbai looked at her with a smile: "Comrade Zheng, I haven't told you what you did to me, how do you know it was the vanishing cream?"
"I...I...you said there was a fragrance, so what else could it be?"
"It could also be soap!" Lin Yanbai raised an eyebrow slightly, and continued, "Besides, I'm not talking nonsense. I asked someone to bring this vanishing cream back from Shanghai. It has a unique fragrance that we don't have here. Who touched my vanishing cream? Just smell it and you'll know!"
Under the light, Lin Yanbai could clearly see the sweat oozing from Zheng Xinxin's forehead, and she was already losing her composure.
Sure enough, the next second, Zheng Xinxin threw herself into a rage and shouted, "What's wrong with me? I just took a little bit of your vanishing cream. Are you really so stingy? What's wrong with me using a little?"
As soon as these words came out, Xiao Qi was shocked for ten thousand years. He couldn't help but sigh: I thought the host was shameless enough, but I didn't expect that there is always someone better than you!
Lin Yanbai: Ah, who said bad things about me?
Before Lin Yanbai could say anything, Xu Jiaqi couldn't help but speak up for her: "Zheng Xinxin, you're really shameless. Why would they let you use such an expensive bottle of vanishing cream? You're really just trying to flatter yourself! Besides, taking something without asking is stealing. If you don't understand this, how can you be a worker?"
"You——" Zheng Xinxin was speechless and her face turned red with anger.
Seeing the situation escalating, Liu Fang stepped forward to smooth things over: "Hey, Jiaqi, stop talking. It depends on what Yan Bai says!" The implication was that Xu Jiaqi, you should mind your own business.
Then he turned to Lin Yanbai and said, "Yanbai, Xinxin is just like that, carefree. Maybe she's used to being with us, so we didn't think to tell you. Just don't mind it!" What he meant was, we are usually generous and don't care about this matter. If you are willing to admit that you are a stingy person, then go ahead and make a fuss!
Hearing the subtext of her words, Lin Yanbai raised an eyebrow slightly. She had originally thought that Liu Fang was just Zheng Xinxin's little follower, but seeing this today, this girl is no ordinary person! As soon as these words came out, the strong smell of tea hit her face. She was completely different from before.
Then let's defeat magic with magic! "It's really nothing. It's mainly because I have a lot of bad habits. If I use things that others have used, I will be allergic to them, which can be life-threatening. This vanishing cream has just been opened, it would be a shame to waste it. I see that Sister Xinxin likes it so much, she likes it so much that she wants to use it even when I'm not around, so I might as well sell it to Sister Xinxin at a low price!"
Lin Yanbai looked at the two of them with a smile. Zheng Xinxin got angry when she saw her expression and couldn't help but swear: "Bullshit, there's no such thing as a problem. If you have the guts, try getting an allergy!"
Liu Fang, who was standing by, heard Zheng Xinxin's roar, and the corners of her mouth twitched, but she didn't say anything. She wanted to see how the situation developed first.
"Look at what Sister Xinxin said. If you don't believe me, I don't mind demonstrating it myself. But if I have an allergy, I have to go to the hospital. During this time, if the leaders of the factory are alarmed, I can still explain it, but I'm afraid you will leave a bad impression in front of the leaders!" She looked worried.
Zheng Xinxin was breathing heavily, as if she was going to faint from anger in the next second. Lin Yanbai was really shameless, but she couldn't do anything to her.
"Alright, alright, Yan Bai, look at what you said. Xinxin will never let you risk your life. So, let her buy your vanishing cream!"
"Liu Fang..." Before she could finish her words, Liu Fang quickly pulled her arm, stopping her from saying anything.
Seeing Liu Fang's disapproving look, Zheng Xinxin asked reluctantly: "Okay, then I'll buy it!"
"I asked someone to bring this vanishing cream back from Shanghai when I bought it. It cost me 8 yuan. I haven't used it much, but it's old after all. Just give me 4 yuan!"
"Four dollars? Are you blackmailing me? A bottle of vanishing cream at the supply and marketing cooperative is only a little over one dollar!"
Seeing that Zheng Xinxin was getting angry again, Liu Fang quickly pulled her and whispered a few words in her ear. Zheng Xinxin reluctantly took out 4 yuan and gave it to Lin Yanbai very reluctantly. This time she really lost both the wife and the army!
Lin Yanbai generously handed over the vanishing cream. "You deserve it! If you touch other people's things again, I'll be heartbroken!"
Facing Xu Jiaqi's admiring eyes and Zheng Xinxin's hateful gaze, Lin Yanbai took the washbasin and went out as if nothing had happened. As for Liu Fang beside him, she remained calm and even greeted him as usual, "Go wash up!" Lin Yanbai couldn't help but feel how terrifying this woman was.
As for Gu Xingfan on the other side, after distributing a wave of newspapers in the factory, he felt unsatisfied, so he ran to the newspaper office to buy dozens of them, and ran straight to the compound when he came out.
"Xiao Li, are you on duty? You must be so bored! Come here, I have today's newspapers. I bought a bit too many. Take one and read it carefully when you change shifts!"
"What? Why buy so many? Isn't this the article my boyfriend submitted? Look, just for this one, I bought two extra copies to keep as a collection. It's so valuable!"
Looking at the thick stack in his hand, he wondered… did he buy a few extra copies? He must have bought out all the newspapers!
"Uncle Zhang, are you taking a walk again? I have today's newspaper..." Listening to the voice gradually fading away, Xiao Li thought, he finally understood why he bought so much!
Gu Xingfan distributed newspapers to everyone he met along the way. When he returned to the Gu family, his heroic deeds had already been reported to Grandpa Gu.
"Your Grandpa Zhang and others called me to report all the glorious deeds you've done while distributing newspapers!" Grandpa Gu said expressionlessly.
Gu Xingfan wasn't intimidated at all: "Grandpa, I still have the last two copies, specially saved for you. They are your granddaughter-in-law's debut in the city newspaper. Do you want them? If not, forget it!"
Upon hearing this, Grandpa Gu couldn't hold it in any longer. "Yes, yes, who said no!" He snatched the newspaper from Gu Xingfan's hand and complained as he flipped through it, "He's just calling for a wife all the time. Hurry up and marry her back! When can I meet my granddaughter-in-law?"
Hearing this, Gu Xingfan was slightly distracted, it seemed that this was not bad.
