Chapter 90 No Rescue
Yan Jingshu went to buy two more buns and held them in his hands while they were still hot.
He pinched the soft bun before answering Tang Xueli's question.
"Fong Lannie fell into the water once, and I pulled her ashore, and that's how we got to know each other."
"What a coincidence..." Tang Xueli laughed, "You and their family are quite predestined."
However, it would be more accurate to say it was a bad fate.
"Who said it wasn't?" Yan Jingshu took a bite of the bun.
"Aren't you full?" According to Tang Xueli's observation, he was not the kind of person who had a big appetite.
Yan Jingshu shook his head: "I haven't eaten for two days."
Tang Xueli: "...Overeating is not advisable."
"Yeah, I know." Yan Jingshu said as he finished eating a bun.
It was midsummer in July. It had rained the day before and the air was very humid. It was still very hot and stuffy at night. You would sweat all over if you just stood still.
Yan Jingshu, however, held on to a steaming hot bun tightly.
And he didn't even wait for the buns to cool down before eating them.
"Aren't you hot?" Tang Xueli was a little worried.
Yan Jingshu said leisurely: "My heart is cold."
Tang Xueli: "..."
Yan Jingshu took five minutes to quietly finish the second bun.
In less than an hour, half a pound of pork elbow, half a pound of pork belly, a plate of pig ears and liver, and four big meat buns...
It was all real meat and staple food, and she was afraid that he would vomit.
"You saved Feng Biao's cousin who was raised by him. Shouldn't he be grateful to you?" Tang Xueli said, "Feng Xiaohu committed a crime himself. What does it have to do with you as a reporter? How can he regard you as his enemy?"
"Feng Biao doesn't think like that. He has his own logic, which is very absurd."
Yan Jingshu smiled bitterly and said, "His brother committed a heinous crime, which is worthy of forgiveness. He thinks that the children were abducted because their parents didn't take good care of them. If you don't take good care of your own child, then that child could go with anyone."
Feng Biao once told him in person: "Children who wander around can die if they fall into a well, climb trees and fall from them, or run around and get bit by snakes. So it's normal for them to be sold by strangers, isn't it? If they are sold, they might live a better life in someone else's home. How could my brother commit a crime? If they have the ability, they should take good care of their own children. If they can't, they blame others. This is shameless and rogue!"
Tang Xueli leaned against the tree trunk, playing with a fallen leaf in her hand, with a thoughtful look on her face.
"I tracked down the whereabouts of the children and found Feng Xiaohu, which forced him to flee to the mountain village. So Feng Biao thinks everything is my fault."
"I understand." Tang Xueli completely understood Feng Biao's train of thought. "Feng Xiaohu acted like a hooligan towards the mistress and the other girl. It's not because his brother is lustful. It's because they seduced his brother. It's because they are too beautiful. It's because you forced his brother to hide and forced him to commit a crime. Anyway, it's someone else's fault. His brother was forced into it. His brother did nothing wrong."
Yan Jingshu was stunned. These words were exactly the same as what Feng Biao said.
"Yes, that's what he thought."
Tang Xueli: "What about you saving Feng Lanni? Was it your fault too?"
"It's not my fault, but I'm meddling in other people's business." Yan Jingshu laughed at himself. "Feng Lanni is a good swimmer. Even though she accidentally fell into the river, she can swim out by herself. She doesn't need my help at all."
Tang Xueli didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "Feng Lannie thinks so too?"
"That's not the case. She was very grateful to me. She told Feng Biao that her legs cramped when she fell into the water. If I hadn't jumped into the river to save her, she would have been in trouble."
Yan Jingshu bent down and picked up a fallen leaf. The leaf was still green. He shook the petiole and said, "But Feng Biao didn't believe it. He said Feng Lannie was too kind, so she was making up stories."
"So do you think what Feng Lanni said is true?"
Tang Xueli saw a customer coming to the stall, but she didn't rush over to greet him. The customer just glanced at him and left.
"I don't know." Yan Jingshu is still not sure whether Feng Lanni had a leg cramp at that time, "But if I encounter such a situation again, I will still go down to save people."
Tang Xueli turned her head and looked at Yan Jingshu, "What if the person who fell into the river was Feng Biao? If he shouted for help, would you save him?"
Yan Jingshu and Tang Xueli looked at each other and did not give an answer.
He really doesn't know.
Perhaps only when the incident actually happened would he know whether he would go to rescue her or not.
"Will you save him?" Yan Jingshu asked back.
"No." Tang Xueli didn't think about it for a second and said decisively: "I wish he would die sooner!"
Go down and save him? Only a fool would save such rubbish and scum!
Yan Jingshu laughed out loud.
Tang Xueli raised her eyebrows: "What are you laughing at?"
"That's really nice to hear."
Yan Jingshu has been feeling very anxious these past few days, feeling very nervous and having nightmares at night.
He was not afraid that Feng Biao would ask him to pay for Feng Xiaohu's life, but he was afraid that this madman Feng Biao would hurt Tang Xueli and her family.
But at this moment, he suddenly felt a subtle sense of relief.
Ultimately, the important thing is to find a way to deal with Feng Biao as soon as possible.
Feng Biao disappeared for a long time, and Tang Xueli went to set up a stall to sell braised meat every afternoon.
She added a few more vegetarian dishes to her braised meat stall, including braised potato chips, braised kelp shreds, and braised dried tofu.
This way, when Yan Jingshu comes over, he can not only eat meat, but also some vegetarian dishes.
However, it is not good to eat these all the time.
Tang Xueli tried to persuade him several times but to no avail, so she simply brought him a box of cold cucumber salad.
"If you don't eat well, you will become malnourished."
"It's okay. I used to eat a lot. I was out reporting news, so I didn't have time to eat properly." Yan Jingshu said, "I use different fillings for buns, cabbage, leeks, eggs, pork, everything. It's filling, convenient, and nutritious."
Tang Xueli: "..."
It's simply impossible to refute this. Is this why Yan Jingshu likes eating buns the most?
Well, he's an adult, four years older than herself, there's no need for her to worry about him.
I made too much cold cucumber salad at noon, and I couldn’t finish it at home, so I packed a box for Yan Jingshu.
The braised dishes sold better than I expected, with high profits, so I continued to sell them.
In this way, she didn't do anything special to Yan Jingshu.
Yan Jingshu insisted on sending Tang Xueli back home.
This day was the last day of July, and Feng Biao, who had disappeared for a long time, finally appeared that evening.
He arrived at the design institute's staff building at 11 o'clock in the evening and knocked on Tang Xueli's door.
The knock on the door was not loud, but gentle and cautious.
Tang Shuangshuang sat up suddenly, "Who is it in the middle of the night?"
"I'll go check it out." Tang Xueli put on her shoes and got out of bed, walked to the door and asked, "Who is it?"
The person outside the door said, "It's me, Feng Biao."
