After listening to Lu Huaijiao's words, the comrades of the Revolutionary Committee saw the scattered steamed buns on the ground and their gazes fell on Qin Yanping and Zhao Wu kneeling on the ground. Some of them recognized their identities.
"Isn't this Zhao Quan's family? Zhao Quan's wife and son."
"No wonder Zhao Quan seemed to be living such a comfortable life lately. Turns out he's been letting his wife and children engage in speculative activities. Well, you can never truly know a person's heart just by looking at their face!"
"He's supposed to be a government employee, yet he's someone who undermines socialism. How can he possibly keep his job?"
"That's not what it seems."
These people were talking back and forth, and Qin Yanping heard what they were saying but had no way to defend herself.
"No, comrades, listen to me, listen to me. We are not speculators, no, we bought these steamed buns ourselves."
Qin Yanping isn't entirely stupid; she remembered to remove them at the crucial moment.
The group glanced at each other, said "Oh," and asked Qin Yanping.
"You said you went to buy it, where did you buy it?"
Qin Yanping panicked. At this moment, her eyes darted around, and in her desperation, she randomly pointed to Lu Huaijiao under the aggressive gaze of the Revolutionary Committee members.
"We bought it from her, we bought it from her."
Lu Huaijiao: ? ? ? ?
Gu Changzheng's lips twitched slightly.
Qin Yanping is really stupid.
How did the Qin family, with such a background, manage to deceive Lu Zhengde?
Gu Changzheng thought about it and concluded that it only proved that Lu Zhengde was stupid enough.
Let's get back to the topic.
After Qin Yanping criticized Lu Huaijiao, the members of the Revolutionary Committee also turned to look at Lu Huaijiao because of these words. After scrutinizing Lu Huaijiao, they all had the same thought.
Would she be so opportunistic as to make and sell steamed buns?
Does she know how to knead dough?
With this question in mind, one person actually asked it aloud.
Do you know how to knead dough?
He asked Lu Huaijiao.
Lu Huaijiao racked her brains and finally found her only two experiences of doing chores in her memory: adding high-gluten flour to water, stirring it well, and then beating in eggs to make egg pancakes.
She told the truth: "I can make egg pancakes."
As she spoke, she thought she was quite impressive, and after she finished speaking, she gave Gu Changzheng a smug look.
That subtle look in his eyes meant, "See? Your wife is beautiful, hardworking, and capable."
Gu Changzheng, who instantly understood Lu Huaijiao's meaning: ...
He admitted his wife was beautiful, but she was also hardworking and capable… His gaze swept over her, and Gu Changzheng unexpectedly mistook the adjective “capable” for the verb “capable”…
His body tensed, and a suspicious blush appeared on his face.
Taking advantage of his distraction, Zhao Wu, who had been pinned down by Gu Changzheng, thought he could seize the opportunity to jump up and fight back.
He did indeed 'succeed', because Gu Changzheng, who had just been able to control Zhao Wu with one hand, suddenly seemed to have lost his strength.
Zhao Wu gave him a push.
Gu Changzheng staggered back several steps before he could regain his footing, almost falling to the ground.
What stands out is her fragility!
Upon seeing this, Zhao Wu rolled up his sleeves without thinking, raised his fist, and rushed over, aiming a punch at Gu Changzheng's face.
"I'll beat your brother to death, you little punk! How dare you plot against me, Master Zhao? Do you even know who's in charge here in Shanghai?"
Zhao Wu had a very fierce demeanor.
His plan was very good.
After beating Gu Changzheng so badly that he can't take care of himself, he'll snatch that little wench Lu Huaijiao and make her serve him every day.
When I'm in a good mood, I give her some food and a smile; when I'm in a bad mood, I tie her to the bed and give her a good beating...
Zhao Wu's filthy thoughts were practically written all over his face.
Gu Changzheng, who had feigned weakness and taken several steps back, had a deep, cold glint in his narrow eyes. He curled his lips into a half-smile.
If it weren't for cooperating with his wife's performance, Gu Changzheng guaranteed that Zhao Wu wouldn't see the sun rise tomorrow within a minute.
Zhao Wu was unaware of this.
They even felt that they were sure to win, and that victory was just around the corner.
Just as the fist was about to hit Gu Changzheng's cheek, Gu Changzheng dodged to the side in an instant, making it look like he was being chased and beaten.
Zhao Wu was indeed fooled.
The Revolutionary Committee members watching were astonished by Zhao Wu's ferocity; he actually beat Gu Changzheng right in front of them. (He didn't even touch a hair on his head!)
Since that's the case, they can no longer give Zhao Quan face.
"Comrade, don't panic. Resist as much as you can, and we can testify that this is legitimate self-defense."
"Yes, comrade, you must fight back! You can't back down, or Zhao Wu will beat you to death."
They were very worried about Gu Changzheng.
The person who should have been genuinely worried about Gu Changzheng was now watching the scene with an indifferent expression. She even found it a little boring and gave a delicate yawn.
"Gu Changzheng, I'm so sleepy..."
Her bright eyes welled up with tears from the yawn. She covered her mouth, looking at him through teary eyes, a gesture that proved far more effective than any signal tactic she'd used to employ during battles.
Gu Changzheng suddenly stopped, turned around, and kicked Zhao Wu in the stomach, who was confident of victory.
The movement was so fast that Zhao Wu himself barely saw it.
Lying on the ground, somewhat dizzy, Zhao Wu: ? ? ?
On one side, a few members of the Revolutionary Committee: ? ? ?
And Qin Yanping, who hadn't seen what happened at all: ? ? ? ?
