After dinner, Zhuang Bo and Wei Zhu went shopping and watched a movie. Wei Deng then talked to Song Xia about Jing Jun.
"I think Zhuang Bo is more pleasing to the eye. At least he won't sneak around looking up addresses and then come knocking on people's doors. I've never seen him block people at the cemetery. The look in his eyes that day was terrifyingly obsessive."
"That person is really no good. He hasn't come to harm your sister yet, but who knows who he'll harm in the future."
Wei Deng didn't care: "As long as they don't cause trouble for our family, it's fine."
But Song Xia felt guilty, fearing that another innocent girl would be hurt.
Xiaoling promptly reported: "Xiaxia, he's now dating the new clerk at the factory. As you instructed, he anonymously sent the girl some bad news about Jing Jun, but she doesn't seem to have listened."
Song Xia sighed softly: "Few people will reveal their true nature from the start. Let's keep watching."
"Yes, I'll let you and that girl know if there's anything unusual."
At this moment, Jing Jun did feel some regret about missing out on Wei Zhu, but he couldn't gamble on a result that was likely to fail. Fortunately, the one he had now barely met his requirements, and most importantly, he was obedient.
However, his girlfriend has been checking his phone lately, taking every opportunity to ask people in the workshop if he has any other admirers. Could it be that someone said something? Even if someone did say that he used to pursue Wei Zhu, he and Wei Zhu have long since lost contact, so what is his girlfriend so anxious about?
"I've already said I only love you, how else do you want me to prove it?" Jing Jun said, suppressing his anger.
Kong Yan looked at him with a wronged expression: "I was just asking you a couple of questions, and you're already getting impatient. Jing Jun, you weren't like this before. You've changed."
"Haven't you changed? Kong Yan, look at yourself now, you're like a shrew, making a scene over something that never happened. I'm a minor leader now, don't I have any face to save if word gets out!"
"You called me a shrew? And said I was being unreasonable?" Kong Yan felt like she was seeing Jing Jun for the first time, especially his eyes, which were really scary, just like the anonymous email said, Jing Jun was restraining his violent tendencies.
We're still dating. If one day I stop listening to him like this, will he really hit me?
Jing Jun took a deep breath: "Kong Yan, who exactly told you what? You believe a stranger but not me?"
"Nobody said anything to me," Kong Yan said in a muffled voice. "Jing Jun, I need to calm down by myself."
"Then think about it carefully. Which of the female workers in this factory doesn't envy you for being my girlfriend? Is it fair to me if someone just says a few things out of jealousy to you?"
After saying that, Jing Jun opened the door and left, and Kong Yan felt a tremor in her heart.
She knew that Jing Jun was very popular in the factory, and she also knew that the anonymous email might have been sent out of jealousy, but she still wanted to test him and find out if Jing Jun was really as described in the email.
Judging from today's argument, Jing Jun doesn't seem to be as gentle as he usually is.
But Jing Jun really is the best boyfriend option in this factory. After all, he's not only capable at work and valued by the boss, but he's also tall and handsome. If I break up with Jing Jun because of some doubts, won't I regret it in the future? Can I find someone better than Jing Jun? Because of Jing Jun's abilities in this factory, will I be able to continue working here?
Kong Yan felt lost. On one hand, her intuition told her that Jing Jun might really be two-faced, but on the other hand, she was afraid of losing everything she had after breaking up with him.
Song Xia was not Kong Yan's mother after all. As a stranger, she couldn't analyze Jing Jun's character with her. Even if she did, the other party might not believe her. So she could only keep an eye on him.
She also has a recent problem: news of her successful snack shop somehow got back to her hometown, and her brother and sister-in-law came knocking on her door.
"Sister, no wonder you're ignoring us now, you've made it big!" Sister-in-law Pan Meiying looked at the small shop with a jealous expression, her voice rough, completely disregarding the many customers still eating inside.
The younger brother, Song Chenggong, also had a calculating look on his face: "Sister, why are you hiring outsiders to open a shop? Your sister-in-law Meiying and I are both unemployed, so let us work for you. Isn't that perfect?"
Hearing him say that, the four employees in the store looked at him warily. After all, they didn't want to be fired. Although the work was busy, the boss paid them more than the average restaurant, and they had a day off every week. Where would they find a better job if they left?
This is the boss's younger brother and sister-in-law. Why are they like this? They are so different from the boss's magnanimous and gentle demeanor.
"What do you mean 'perfect'? You two are lazy and lazy, if I let you do the work, how am I supposed to keep my shop open?" Song Xia looked at them sarcastically. "You haven't taken enough advantage of me over the years, and now you want to mess with my little shop? No way."
Seeing her so resolutely confront people, not only the four employees, but also the customers couldn't help but laugh.
The way to deal with such eccentric relatives is to be tough; being weak and submissive is just not a good thing!
Pan Meiying and Song Chenggong's expressions changed repeatedly. Being scolded on the phone was one thing, but not being given face in person was another. How could my sister change so much?
"Sis, are you deliberately refusing to acknowledge me as your brother? Have you forgotten what Mom and Dad told you before they passed away?"
"I acknowledge you as my brother, but when have you ever treated me like a sister? All you do is exploit and oppress me. I'm your slave! When Mom and Dad passed away, they asked me to take care of you, but that was because they were biased. Do you think I'd disregard my own safety and live my whole life for you?"
"Sister, you..."
"What do you mean, 'you'? Don't think I don't know what you're up to this time. We're almost severing ties, so don't give me that nonsense. I'm not buying it anymore."
Seeing the shop's popularity, Pan Meiying naturally couldn't easily give up the profits, so she threatened, "Sister, aren't you afraid we'll expose you to reporters if you're so heartless?"
"What are you going to expose about me? That I won't let my own brother leech off me?" Song Xia sneered. "Pan Meiying, come on, netizens these days don't buy into the old ways. You can talk, but I can't refute you? If your true colors are exposed online, you'll be the ones who get scorned."
"Yes, we can testify for Boss Song at that time."
"Boss, don't be soft-hearted, we support you."
"Wow, I've never seen anyone so shameless before. I've really opened my eyes today."
Because Song Xia was usually honest and kind in business, many customers spoke up for her, which angered Song Chenggong and Pan Meiying so much that their faces turned pale. They had never seen such a meddlesome outsider.
