Li Yan looked at him, his expression also very serious: "Rong Zhaonan, I have already made it very clear to you, a person like you is not suitable for Ning Yuan at all."
Rong Zhaonan looked down at him with a cold gaze: "I'm very curious, what gives you, an outsider, the right to say such things to me?"
Li Yan looked at the man in front of him, who was much taller than him. He wasn't wearing glasses, revealing his true appearance, except for his striking pretty face.
The other person's gaze inexplicably gave off a suffocating sense of oppression.
Li Yan frowned: "Your domineering fiancée caused trouble, and the whole brigade knows about it. Everyone is talking about Ning Yuan. Your fiancée even said she would make things difficult for Ning Yuan. Didn't you know?"
Li Yanyue became increasingly agitated: "A person like you will only bring her trouble!"
Rong Zhaonan's eyes were dark, and he suddenly sneered: "When I didn't get back to work, Secretary Li said I was a burden to her. Now that I've gotten back to work, you say I'm causing her trouble."
He raised an eyebrow mockingly: "What, so you think that if I divorced her, she would be free of trouble by going with you, Deputy Secretary Li?"
Li Yan paused for a moment, his face flushing red: "That's not what I meant... I just don't want our comrades in the brigade to get into trouble because of you!"
“Ning Yuan is my girlfriend. If she has any trouble, I will help her solve it. It’s not your place to interfere, you outsider.” Rong Zhaonan turned and went back to his room indifferently.
Li Yan stared at his tall, slender back, forcibly suppressing his anger and raising his voice—
“Ning Yuan’s family is furious about your marriage. She went to town to call home just to get scolded. She’s fallen out with her family because of you, do you even know that?”
Rong Zhaonan paused, turned his head indifferently and glanced at him: "What's it to you? Get lost!"
That cold, contemptuous glance sent a chill down Li Yan's spine for some reason, as if he were being stared at by some dangerous and powerful beast.
The next moment, Rong Zhaonan slammed the door shut.
Li Yan was stunned for a moment, still a little unaccustomed to the village doctor who used to be low-key and silent, letting people criticize him, becoming so prickly.
Suddenly, he heard a low growl from an animal beside him. Turning his head, he saw Little White staring at him menacingly, its white, sharp teeth bared.
Li Yan was startled and instinctively took several steps back. How could this dog look like a wolf!
He could only turn around and leave the courtyard in a disheveled state.
Originally, he just wanted to warn Rong Zhaonan to deal with his past messes and stop making Ning Yuan lose face because of him.
But he noticed that the scarf around Rong Zhaonan's neck was the same color as the wool scarf around Ning Yuan's neck that morning.
I don't know why I got a little angry and started speaking rudely!
Rong Zhaonan sat in the room and ripped off the scarf around his neck. His fair face was gloomy, and Ruifeng's eyes were filled with icy anger.
That long-haired rabbit is really something; all the wild men outside have come knocking on his door to warn him, his respectable partner, what a piece of trash he is!
That guy even knew she went to the county to call her family, but he didn't!
They kept it a secret very well, very well, extremely well!!
Rong Zhaonan's expression shifted between light and dark for a while before he suddenly stood up, straightened his clothes, and put on his hat.
He turned around, grabbed a military water bottle and a satchel, and strode out.
We should go into the county and see what kind of good deeds that little spy is up to!
These past few days she hasn't made a move on him, nor has she tried to seduce him to get information; she probably has other plans in the county town.
He said he was calling home, but he might actually be contacting her superior!
He needs to keep a close eye on this cunning and treacherous woman himself; even Chen Chen might not be a match for her!
He definitely didn't want to know how much her family opposed her marrying him!
...
Ning Yuan had no idea that someone had been determined to come back into the city to "settle accounts" with her not long after she left.
At this moment, she was busy forcibly "reaching a consensus" with Uncle Liu—
Uncle Liu had been seething with anger for a long time, and finally, with a breath stuck in his chest, he gritted his teeth and said, "Fine, let's see where you plan to exchange money for goods and see if you can protect yourself!!"
The girl in front of him was threatening and seemed 'confident,' while Chen Chen looked ready to fight at any moment.
Ultimately, it made him wary, and he didn't kill him.
Ning Yuan secretly breathed a sigh of relief and nodded calmly: "Uncle Liu is an open-minded person, so I will lead the way first."
Finally, under the watchful eyes of a group of people, Ning Yuan and Chen Chen slowly retreated from the alley.
Once they were out of the alley, they discovered that there were still more than a dozen people blocking both the front and back of the alley, plus the people Uncle Liu had brought... making a total of twenty or thirty people!
Who knows how many of Uncle Liu's men are on the streets outside!
Chen Chen couldn't help but frown inwardly. Fortunately, there was no direct conflict, otherwise he really couldn't guarantee that Ning Yuan would get away unscathed!
Fifteen minutes later...
Ning Yuan and Uncle Liu stood on a nearby street.
There weren't many people on the street on Sunday. Uncle Liu's men pretended to stroll around and were scattered along the street, making them seem to outnumber the actual pedestrians.
Uncle Liu stared at Ning Yuan expressionlessly: "This is the place you chose?"
Ning Yuan's big, dark eyes curved into crescents: "Yes, Uncle, don't you think this is a good place?"
Chen Chen, along with the short, thin man and the skinny man, subconsciously looked at the wall next to them, where several large characters were painted: "Serve the People!"
There is also a sign standing upright with the words "Xunyang Street Police Station" engraved on it.
Uncle Liu sneered through gritted teeth, "Girl, aren't you afraid of going to jail with me? You're a speculator too."
This brat actually brought them to the police station entrance to make a deal?!
Ning Yuan sighed, "Uncle, at most I'd be charged with speculation and profiteering, but you've got more to do than that. So let's hurry up and exchange the money for the goods. The gatekeeper has been watching us."
They probably have quite a few murder cases on their hands.
Uncle Liu froze, realizing that the guards at the police station entrance were indeed looking at them with puzzled expressions.
He gritted his teeth and ordered, "Fatty, give it to her!"
Seeing this, the short, chubby Donggua could only suppress his anger and hand over a cloth bag that looked like a small grain sack to Ning Yuan.
Ning Yuan looked down and opened it, finding that it was indeed a bag of rice.
Inside, on a small half-bag of rice, were two bundles of money: one bundle of ten yuan and the other of five yuan.
She unceremoniously reached in and counted the money, discovering that the "huge sum" was indeed not a penny less.
Ning Yuan nodded to Uncle Liu, gesturing for Chen Chen to hand over the plum vase and bowl: "Our uncle is so sincere, we'll be doing business with him for a long time. I'll give you a discount of 500 this time, please come back more often next time!"
"Who will do this to you again? Don't push your luck!" Skinny Bamboo Pole and the other two carefully took the items and warned Ning Yuan fiercely.
Uncle Liu, however, looked at her coldly and actually smiled, his words carrying a profound meaning: "You've got guts, girl. I hope you'll always be that lucky."
"What do you want to do!" Chen Chen sensed the murderous intent and vengeful warning in the other party's words.
Ning Yuan's large, clear eyes were cold yet bright: "Uncle Liu, as I said, we're in the business of small-scale trading, and we strive for harmony and prosperity. I have good sources of goods, and you have connections. Besides..."
She paused, adopting a mysterious air: "You might want to think about why I dare to challenge you here, what kind of background I have that makes me so arrogant in doing this business."
Uncle Liu and the others were stunned.
After saying that, Ning Yuan didn't wait for the other side's men to react and arrogantly looked at Chen Chen: "Let's go."
Chen Chen glared fiercely at them and then turned to leave.
With his back to Uncle Liu and his group, Chen Chen couldn't help but ask in a low voice, "Sister-in-law, what kind of background do we have? What are you planning to do...?"
The sentence, "Using the captain as a background character? That doesn't seem appropriate," was not even spoken yet.
Ning Yuan walked briskly with her head down, muttering to herself, "What kind of background does he have? He's just showing off. I'd better hurry up and run, or I'll get shot dead..."
Chen Chen: "???"
