Fang Zhiyi turned her head and saw Liu Mengmeng, whose face was flushed, as if she had been crying.
"My supervisor said I left my post without permission during work hours and they're going to deduct my salary! Do you even know that?!"
Fang Zhiyi panicked and stammered, "I, I didn't..." He wanted to explain that he was just helping Sister Xu finish her work before helping Liu Mengmeng, but she seemed very angry.
"What do you mean, 'you'? I never saw you as that kind of person!" Liu Mengmeng had been angry all morning, and now she was even more furious. "You've taken a liking to her, haven't you?"
As soon as she said that, Sister Xu was immediately unhappy: "Liu Mengmeng, what did you say?"
"Tell me! How are you going to compensate me for my wages!" Liu Mengmeng realized that her words had offended others, so she immediately turned to Fang Zhiyi and continued to question her.
"I..." Fang Zhiyi was so anxious that she was at a loss.
Sister Xu stood up abruptly: "What? Does Xiao Fang need your approval to help him? Who do you think you are? Are you his girlfriend? Bah, don't think I don't know. You go home and talk to your boyfriend every day, using Xiao Fang as a tool in your conversations. He's seen through you and you're not happy about it?"
Fang Zhiyi was stunned. Mengmeng has a boyfriend?
"What business is it of yours what I have with him? Why are you interfering?" Liu Mengmeng said angrily.
Fang Zhiyi looked at the seemingly innocent girl in front of her; at this moment, her image had completely collapsed.
"Exactly, why is she pretending to be innocent all the time?" Some people had long disliked Liu Mengmeng's pretense, but Fang Zhiyi was the only one who didn't see through it.
"Let me tell you, Xiao Fang won't be helping you with work anymore. Why should he? Did you give your salary to someone else? You deserve to have your salary deducted!" Sister Xu's loud voice attracted many people to come and watch the commotion.
Liu Mengmeng got anxious and glared angrily at Sister Xu: "Aren't you just jealous that I'm young and prettier than you? Do you think Fang Zhiyi would be interested in an old woman like you?"
These words ignited the flames of war, and Sister Xu grabbed her hair and began to unleash her attack.
Fang Zhiyi wanted to move, but his grandfather's voice in his head warned him not to. Then the supervisor arrived and gave both sides a scolding.
Liu Mengmeng and Sister Xu were both dismissed.
Liu Mengmeng, with her hair disheveled and looking like a madwoman, pointed at Fang Zhiyi and Sister Xu and said, "You just wait!"
Sister Xu remained defiant: "Fine, I'll wait! What are you afraid of?"
Fang Zhiyi finally managed to choke out, "Sister Xu, I'm sorry, it's all because of me..."
Sister Xu turned to look at him, then shook her head after a moment: "Silly brother, it's none of your business. I've disliked her for a long time. You should be more careful. She has a boyfriend and is just using you as a tool!"
Watching Fang Zhiyi help her carry her luggage, Sister Xu sighed, "You're a good young man. I'll have to introduce my cousin to you sometime. Listen to me, don't believe everyone in the future. Honest people are always the ones who suffer."
Fang Zhiyi just nodded silently. Today, he lost a roommate, a romantic interest, and the usually carefree Sister Xu.
Was it all because of her? Fang Zhiyi felt very heavy-hearted.
He wanted to ask his grandfather, but his grandfather ignored him.
So Fang Zhiyi went to find his two friends, Wang Hao and Zhong Jiafa. After listening to his complaints for a while, Zhong Jiafa looked impatient: "Is it because of that woman again? Have you never seen a woman before? Why are you so hung up on one person?"
