As the sun set, the educated youth in the county town finished their work, and the educated youth who had been swaying and sleeping in the car were loudly woken up by the staff.
"Get off the bus. After you all get off, go to the guesthouse for the night. Tomorrow, the brigade commander will come to the county town to pick you up and take you back to the brigade!"
It was getting late, and traveling at night was not safe, so they decided to stay at the guesthouse for the night.
After the staff finished counting the number of people and were about to leave, a boy suddenly shouted:
"Where's my money? How did my money disappear? It was definitely there before I got off the train."
Mu Xia took a step back, her eyes burning.
The boy was frantic and turned all his luggage upside down to search for something. When the staff came over to ask what was going on, the boy suddenly pointed at Ruan Xianxian.
"It must be her, she must have stolen my money. I clearly had some on the train, but she sat next to me on the bus. She must have stolen the money."
The staff member, with sharp eyes and an aggressive demeanor, walked towards Ruan Xianxian. "Comrade! Please open your bag, I need to check it."
This is an era where a whistleblower can get you demoted; evidence? Ha, not needed!
Ruan Xianxian remained calm, blocking the staff member's outstretched hand with her forearm, and sneered: "He says he lost money, so he just lost money? If he says he lost his innocence, did I molest him in public in the car?"
Everyone: ? ? ?
What kind of inappropriate language is this?
The staff felt that Ruan Xianxian was being unreasonable. "He's turned everything upside down, everyone saw it, how could it be fake?"
"Who said that?" Ruan Xianxian casually lifted her eyelids.
"Did you just search his bag? Did you check his person? What if he hid the money in some private part of his body and then framed me?"
The boy's name was Ye Gen. Judging from his anxious expression and the cold weather, he was sweating profusely and didn't seem to be acting at all. He shouted:
"I'm willing to search you. If you don't have anything, you must leave your luggage open for everyone to check!"
“Okay!” Ruan Xianxian agreed.
The two walked to a secluded corner and rustled around for a while. The staff member shook his head at the other person who had come out to check on the situation, indicating that there was nothing there.
"Comrade! It's your turn!"
Seeing her standing there motionless, completely oblivious, someone impatiently urged her on.
"It's getting late and so cold, how can you have the nerve to make so many people stand here with you?"
"Exactly! The innocent are innocent. What's wrong with opening your bag and showing it to someone if you have nothing to hide?"
The staff member, Yu Tianlei, smiled slightly. Whether she stole or not was unimportant; what mattered was that everyone present had a bad first impression of Ruan Xianxian.
Once you leave the group and isolate her from the outside world, you'll have achieved your goal!
"Did I tell you to stand there and watch? The guesthouse is right in front of you. You can donate those two legs under your heads if you don't need them."
Ruan Xianxian's words made some people realize the truth, and they picked up their belongings and left, while others felt ashamed and indignant, and loudly rebuked her:
"Who knows if you deliberately sent us away to prevent your bad reputation from spreading and to save face?"
Some people simply watch the show.
"How much money did you lose?" Ruan Xianxian asked Ye Gen. He was agitated and seemed eager to snatch her bag, but his eyes flickered when he heard her question.
"5...200, I lost 200!"
Damn it! Ruan Baozhu clearly said that her cousin had a lot of money, but not only did she not find a chance to get it along the way, she also lost her own money!
He was so regretful!
I should have known better than to sit next to that unlucky woman.
Ruan Xianxian said "Oh," and added, "Only two hundred?!"
She slowly pulled out 10 yuan, 20, 50, 100, 200, 500, 1000... from her fanny pack.
Everyone was stunned. The people present were no more than seventeen or eighteen years old, and in the first half of their lives, they probably had never seen someone pull out a thousand dollars in one go.
Both staff members couldn't help but swallow hard.
Many people's eyes lit up instantly; some hid it well, while others couldn't wait to pounce on it and claim it for themselves.
Ruan Xianxian laughed as she cast her bait and waited for the fish to bite. "What should I do? You only lost two hundred, but I have two thousand!"
Everyone gasped again; it turned out that a thousand wasn't all she had!
Ye Gen blushed and stammered for a long time before finally managing to say, "Who knows if you stole this money?"
"My grandfather is a brigade commander in the Capital Military Region. Why would I need to steal money?" Ruan Xianxian said as if she had heard the biggest joke in the world. Ye Gen blurted out subconsciously.
“You’ve already been kicked out of the Ruan family; the money you got is tainted.”
“Comrade, you seem to know me very well. You even know whether I’ve been kicked out of my family or not.” Ruan Xianxian looked at the other person’s face, which showed a moment of panic.
"Your face looks familiar. Who are you again?" She seemed to suddenly realize, "Oh!"
"Aren't you my classmate who tried to drug my older cousin and her fiancé, only to suffer the consequences and have an affair with my younger cousin without a matchmaker?"
"No!" Ye Gen wanted to deny it, but his mind was buzzing. Ruan Baozhu had slept with someone? Then what was he?
Before he could even begin his plan, he put on a stern face, determined to deny everything: "You're mistaken, there's no student in our class named Ruan Baozhu."
After saying that, he secretly cursed, and sure enough, Ruan Xianxian looked puzzled: "I don't think I... ever said my cousin's name was Ruan Baozhu!"
The crowd was in an uproar. Those present were all junior or senior high school graduates, and by now they understood that this was a premeditated frame-up.
He pointed at Ye Gen and said, "It was premeditated. No wonder he's classmates with that Baozhu. They're birds of a feather."
"I didn't! I didn't! I really lost money!" Ye Gen tried desperately to explain, but no one listened to him.
After everyone had settled in and entered the guesthouse, he was still there, arguing with the staff, insisting that he had lost his money and wanted to report it to the police.
