Chapter 148 Was the wrong person mistaken?
At the Zou family's house next door, Yu Junsheng and Cheng Jiajia had just shared their guesses with Zou Qingshu and Aunt Hao.
Aunt Cao: "..." Good heavens! Why can't she understand?
What? Qi Baifan introduced his old flame to Zou Qingshu? Zhu Ziqiang snatched Zou Qingshu's blind date? Zhu Ziqiang and Qi Baifan's old flame were rolling around in bed together?
She stood there blankly for a long time before smacking her lips.
Damn it, Aunt Cao has been eating melons for decades, but this is the first time that melons have made her dizzy.
The people living in that compound are definitely not ordinary people!
Once that guy surnamed Sun moves in, I bet there will be even more trouble.
Zou Qingshu's expression didn't change. Sure enough, he wasn't the only one who thought so.
That woman must have some problem.
It's easy to guess what Grandma Zhu is up to. They're actually happy to see it happen. The neighbors next door are bound to make a scene soon. He's so kind, he might as well add fuel to the fire.
Upon hearing the slightly familiar male voice that sounded like someone catching someone cheating, the group's eyes immediately lit up.
That's really something!
What a lively day!
The group exchanged glances and then dashed out to see what was going on.
Today's show is sure to be spectacular.
...
Today is the day that the old flame is meeting another man. No matter how uncomfortable he feels, Qi Baifan originally planned to stay in the courtyard to take care of things on such an important day, in case Sun Ling was unable to handle any unexpected situations.
But Bai Xiaohui was acting strangely today, insisting on dragging him to the park.
They even said that they haven't gone out together since they got married, and they want to find the feeling they had when they were dating.
Qi Baifan had no choice but to accompany Bai Xiaohui to find the right feeling, otherwise, if he refused to go and couldn't give a suitable reason, it would arouse her suspicion.
Thinking that he had already told Sun Ling many times beforehand, and that there shouldn't be any problems, Qi Baifan took Bai Xiaohui by bus to the famous park in the north of the city.
Like other young couples, they explored the entire park, inside and out.
Qi Baifan didn't know what Bai Xiaohui felt, but he did experience the feeling of his legs going weak.
Damn it! Chun Chun is sick!
Qi Baifan cursed under his breath.
When Bai Xiaohui pouted and said she couldn't walk anymore, the two of them started heading back home.
On the way, Bai Xiaohui playfully suggested that they eat out before going back, and enthusiastically proposed, "Brother Bai Fan, we haven't eaten at a state-run restaurant since we got married. I want to eat braised pork. Let's go eat there today?"
Qi Baifan felt the food was too expensive and was reluctant to go, so he tried to coax Bai Xiaohui with words.
"Xiaohui, you know how little I earn each month. Now that we're married, we might have a child at any time. We need to save some money for the child, right?"
The Bai family's daily expenses are all covered by Qin Weimin, the stepfather. Qi Baifan, a temporary worker, only earns a dozen yuan a month. Of course, he wants to save this little bit of money himself. How could he let Bai Xiaohui squander it?
"Hmph, you just don't want to spend money on me!"
Bai Xiaohui was unhappy. She pulled a long face and turned to leave.
Qi Baifan was exhausted and hungry after a whole morning of running around, and she felt very frustrated seeing her giving her such a cold shoulder.
But thinking about his own plans, he could only grit his teeth and continue to humble himself and coax people.
"Xiaohui, Xiaohui, wait for me! I'm not being stingy, but we have to think about the child, don't we?"
Qi Baifan coaxed Bai Xiaohui all the way before she finally managed a slight smile.
As luck would have it, when the two returned, they bumped into Sun Ling, who was blushing, walking out of the house with Zhu Ziqiang.
Given the young couple's behavior, it's easy to imagine what happened.
Qi Baifan's mind went blank for a moment.
Although he arranged for Sun Ling to go on blind dates with other men, in his subconscious, Sun Ling was still his woman, still the woman carrying his child. How could she be touched by other men?
Before Qi Baifan could even think about why Sun Ling and Zou Qingshu had gone on a blind date but ended up with Zhu Ziqiang, he was like an angry bull, and he fiercely stepped forward and punched Zhu Ziqiang twice.
...
As soon as "Brother Zou" and Sun Ling opened the door, before they could even see what was happening outside, "Bang!" "Brother Zou" was hit in the face by two punches and fell to the ground under the eaves. His eyes were glazed over, and he was clearly stunned.
Sun Ling didn't know who had hit her, and screamed with her eyes closed in terror, "Ahhh!! Help! Help!"
That wasn't all. Qi Baifan pounced on him, straddling 'Brother Zou,' and continued to pound him with his fists, left and right. "You bastard, I'll teach you to bully people! I'll teach you to bully people!"
Brother Zou thought his act of stealing the prize had been exposed, and felt guilty for a moment, taking a few punches in the process. But he quickly realized that it wasn't Zou Qingshu in front of him, and immediately became righteous and assertive.
What the hell does it matter to Qi Baifan, that pretty boy, what he and his girlfriend are like?!
"Brother Zou" gritted his teeth, glaring fiercely at the instigator, and cursed, "What's wrong with you, Qi?! Who did I bully? This is my girlfriend. What did I do to you that you started hitting me? Are you sick in the head?!"
Someone surnamed Qi?!
Sun Ling's scream stopped abruptly, and she opened her eyes in shock to see the two people rolling around in a heap.
Brother Bai Fan, how did he end up fighting with 'Brother Zou'?
Isn't 'Brother Zou' just a sucker he arranged for himself?
Sun Ling didn't understand what was going on.
I was a little panicked. What was Bai Fan doing? Didn't they agree on something? How could he hit someone?
What if their relationship is exposed?
Hearing Zhu Ziqiang's words, Qi Baifan's anger surged even more. "Pah! You should take a good look at yourself! This is with your girlfriend?! Do you even deserve it?!" Sun Ling is his woman, what right does he have to sleep with her?!
When Cheng Jiajia and the others came out, they happened to hear Qi Baifan cursing Zhu Ziqiang, and their faces showed a complicated expression.
Damn, she's really jealous.
They're married now, and he's still jealous of his old flame.
Zou Qingshu said with a half-smile, "Oh, Qi Baifan, could it be that this woman has something to do with you? What does it have to do with you that Zhu Ziqiang is being intimate with his partner? Why are you so agitated?" After saying that, he glanced at Sun Ling meaningfully.
Cheng Jiajia's lips twitched. She hadn't realized before that this guy was also a sesame seed.
These words not only sowed discord between Bai Xiaohui and Qi Baifan, but also hinted to Sun Ling that the man she slept with was named Zhu Ziqiang.
They're afraid they won't cause any trouble.
Sure enough, Bai Xiaohui's suspicious gaze immediately fell on Qi Baifan, who was unusually excited, and her tone was dangerous, "Brother Baifan, do you know this woman?"
Upon hearing this clear and crisp sentence, there was a "creak".
Qi Baifan's anger, like a punctured balloon, vanished without a trace.
His rationality finally returned, and he began to think again.
The focus now is not on lessons learned, but on self-improvement.
Instead, Sun Ling was supposed to be on a blind date with Zou Qingshu, so how did she end up having sex with Zhu Ziqiang?
He noticed Bai Xiaohui's suspicious gaze sweeping back and forth between him and Sun Ling. He jumped up and quickly denied it, "No, no, Xiaohui, don't listen to Zou Qingshu's nonsense. I don't know this woman."
His mind raced as he tried to justify himself, "I just saw that woman and Zhu Ziqiang come out of the house, and I was worried she might have been bullied, so I stood up for her. That's why I got a little carried away. Xiaohui, believe me. You know me, you're the only one in my heart."
This was somewhat plausible, and Bai Xiaohui remained skeptical, but said nothing more.
Qi Baifan breathed a huge sigh of relief.
His gaze swept back and forth between Zou Qingshu, who stood to the side with a half-smile, and Zhu Ziqiang, whose face was bruised and swollen from the beating he had given him.
He's not stupid; he's finally realized what's going on.
That stupid woman, Sun Ling, has probably chosen the wrong person; she didn't even go on a blind date with Zou Qingshu!
He deliberately emphasized the words "Zhu Ziqiang" to remind Sun Ling that the man was not Zou Qingshu, but Zhu Ziqiang.
The Zhu family is not a good place to go. Hopefully, she can adapt to the situation and not get trapped.
On the other hand, Sun Ling, who had received the hint, was truly dumbfounded.
She screamed in disbelief, "Who is Zhu Ziqiang?! I'm Zou Qingshu's blind date!"
Zou Qingshu looked disgusted and quickly distanced himself, saying, "My mom and I waited at the gate all morning, but we don't know where that blind date went. Aren't you Zhu Ziqiang's girlfriend?"
Sun Ling: "!!!"
This is a bolt from the blue!
What the heck?!
She slept with the wrong man?!
The one who just spoke is Zou Qingshu?!
Zhu Ziqiang also looked puzzled and spoke with strong disapproval, "Lingling, you're my girlfriend! We were just... how can you talk nonsense in front of everyone?"
Sun Ling: "!!!"
Sun Ling glanced at Zou Qingshu, who had sword-like eyebrows and bright eyes and was tall and had long legs, and then at Zhu Ziqiang, who was sitting on the ground, of medium build, with a square face and a disheveled appearance.
The gap was too big, and Sun Ling was a little overwhelmed.
With a dark expression, she questioned Zhu Ziqiang in a very unpleasant tone, "Didn't you say your surname was Zou?"
Zhu Ziqiang's eyes flickered, and he said in a heavy accent, "My surname is Zou, and my name is Zou Ziqiang. You're my boyfriend, Lingling. What's wrong?"
Sun Ling: "!!!"
Damn it, damn it, you never mentioned you had an accent before!
Sun Ling screamed in despair, "What's wrong? What's wrong? You fucking went on a blind date with the wrong person! You idiot!"
Zhu Ziqiang looked shocked and said incredulously, "How...how is this possible? Lingling, you're my boyfriend! Didn't we...you know...don't you remember?"
He shook his head in disbelief, "Impossible, impossible, you're the one I'm interested in!"
He really acted like a lovesick fool.
Feeling the strange looks from everyone, Sun Ling wished she could disappear into a crack in the ground and didn't want to talk to this idiot at all!
But her words really ignited the passion of the middle-aged women and young wives watching.
Everyone immediately started chattering:
"Oh dear, does this mean that Zou Qingshu's blind date was taken by Zhu Ziqiang?"
"So that's how it is! No wonder this girl was acting like she was crazy. These two are worlds apart!"
"But Qing Shu is really unlucky. His blind date was snatched away by someone else once or twice."
Listening to everyone's discussions, Sun Ling felt increasingly angry.
Damn it, how could she have mistaken someone for someone else?!
Is it too late to switch back now?!
Out of the corner of her eye, Sun Ling caught sight of "Aunt Zou" returning from the toilet. Her pent-up anger finally found an outlet. Pointing at the woman, she shouted hatefully, "You old hag, didn't you say you were Aunt Zou?!"
Everyone turned to look at Grandma Zhu, who was huddled in the corner.
Grandma Zhu had been back for a while and overheard part of their conversation. Upon hearing this, her eyes flashed, she shrank back, and said in a thick local accent, "Yes, I'm Aunt Zou. The matchmaker arranged for my son's blind date to come over. When you came over and asked like this, I assumed you were my son's blind date. You can't blame me for that."
She looked at Sun Ling with innocent eyes, appearing very honest and simple.
Sun Ling: "Ahhh!!!"
Those two bastards!
Sun Ling was almost furious.
But what happened next was even more infuriating. The old woman, as if she really didn't know anything, brazenly asked, "Young lady, aren't you my son's blind date? But... but you two are already like this, who else can you marry if not my son?"
Grandma Zhu glanced meaningfully at the red mark inside Sun Ling's collar.
We've all been through this before, so we can tell what's going on just by looking at it.
Suddenly, his gaze towards Sun Ling became meaningful.
"Oh, this girl and Zhu Ziqiang, it seems like things aren't going smoothly between them."
"Tsk tsk, they're already moving so fast on a blind date?"
"If you ask me, we might as well just go with the flow!"
Zou Qingshu sighed, looking utterly helpless. "I've roughly understood what happened. Comrade Sun, your original blind date was probably with me. I don't know why you ended up on a blind date with Zhu Ziqiang. But every mistake has its advantage. Since things have come to this, it means it's fate between you and Zhu Ziqiang, right?"
Aunt Hao also came out to persuade them. With a serious face, she swept her gaze back and forth between Zhu Ziqiang and Sun Ling, "As the auntie in charge of the courtyard, I'm here to say something. We can't tolerate people who are hooligans and have affairs in our courtyard."
"What do you think, Zhu Ziqiang?"
She had never spoken with the airs of a school aunt before, but today was different; she had to force these two to become a couple.
These people dare to scheme against her son, so let them gang up on each other and fight like dogs!
Zhu Ziqiang readily agreed, "Don't worry, Aunt Hao, this woman is my girlfriend. We'll get our marriage certificate right away. There's no cheating involved!"
Aunt Cao glanced at Sun Ling and said sarcastically, "Hmph, she's already slept with Zhu Ziqiang, she can't still be thinking about our Qingshu, can she?"
Sun Ling: "!!!"
Sun Ling almost coughed up a mouthful of blood.
What does that mean?!
Damn it! If she doesn't agree to marry Zhu Ziqiang today, does that mean she's cheating on him?
But seeing the group of people eyeing her menacingly and pointing fingers at her, Sun Ling had no choice but to accept it.
Are you really going to wait for these people to hand you over to them?!
"Never mind," Sun Ling comforted herself. Although he couldn't compare to her previous blind date, the Zhu family consisted of just the mother and son, and Zhu Ziqiang was a legitimate factory worker. The conditions were not bad.
And most importantly, he lives in compound number 35. If I marry him, I can also see Brother Bai Fan often.
Sun Ling didn't see Qi Baifan's dark face or the hesitant expressions on the faces of the others.
