Zhao Xiaotong, who was waiting outside, couldn't wait any longer. After returning from the city, she went to see Zhu Fengru several times, but the other party simply ignored her.
As a result, around noon, I heard Zhu Fengru actually speaking up for Lin Yuxi, which must have been because Lin Yuxi whispered in her ear.
Originally, the two of them went to the countryside together as educated youth, but now she was all alone and felt completely isolated. When she saw Lin Yuxi coming out with a basket, she immediately followed her, but ended up going to the village chief's house instead.
After waiting for about ten minutes, she finally came out. Zhao Xiaotong clenched her fists and called out to her, "Lin Yuxi! Did you say something to Feng Ru? She hasn't spoken to me at all since I came back from the city."
Fengru? Zhu Fengru?
Lin Yuxi paused, looked at her face, and scoffed, "Don't talk nonsense. I don't like gossiping like you."
Zhao Xiaotong was embarrassed. Even though there were only two of them, she felt her face burning with shame. "What nonsense are you talking about! I'm not gossiping. If you hadn't already hooked up with Gu Chen, would he be here proposing marriage now?"
With a "smack," Lin Yuxi slapped Zhao Xiaotong across the face. "I warned you last time that if you keep talking nonsense, I'll beat you every time I see you."
Zhao Xiaotong was shocked that she attacked without saying a word, and her fists clenched and trembled uncontrollably.
She was beaten to the ground last time, and the thought of it makes her angry, and the angrier she gets.
Zhao Xiaotong raised her hand and, without thinking, grabbed at Lin Yuxi's face. Of course, her other hand wasn't idle either, and she pulled at her hair.
She thought, "In the past, I was the fish on the chopping block, but now it's time for things to change."
Zhao Xiaotong glared at her and yelled, "Lin Yuxi! I'll scratch your face!"
Lin Yuxi moved quickly and grabbed her ear. Pulling her hair didn't hurt, and since she couldn't hurt anyone, she decided to target her weakest spot.
It seems she didn't get enough of a fight last time, as Zhao Xiaotong dared to come and provoke her all by herself.
"You've slandered me time and time again. I've already been kind to you by not dragging you to the commune for public criticism. How dare you lay a hand on me?"
She has repeatedly slandered someone who is completely unrelated to her, spreading rumors about her. Each person's spittle could drown a person. Zhao Xiaotong is several years older than her. How could she not understand these things? Reputation is of utmost importance to a woman. If her reputation is ruined, what's the difference between that and handing someone a knife to kill them?
She grabbed Zhao Xiaotong's ear and pulled on her hair. She didn't use much force, but all that could be heard was a painful scream as more than ten strands of her hair were pulled out.
The connection between her soul and body has been largely completed during this period. She has always been very strong, pulling hair and ears as if she were pulling out zombies.
"Ah! Lin Yuxi, are you crazy?! You actually grabbed my ear!" Zhao Xiaotong covered her ear, immediately feeling a tingling sensation on her scalp.
Having not eaten much oily food, she was no match for him in terms of strength.
"I'm sorry, I was wrong, please stop pulling me." Unable to break free, she began to plead humbly.
Lin Yuxi's lips curled up slightly, her eyes narrowed, "Wouldn't it have been better if you had done this sooner? We're all neighbors, let's talk things out instead of spreading it around."
Zhao Xiaotong trembled all over from the beating, covered her ears, and dared not look up. She gritted her teeth and answered, "I understand."
Lin Yuxi left, satisfied, carrying the basket.
