Chapter 9
"Don't worry, I won't look around. But what's so good about that girl that Brother Chao must marry her?"
"How should I know? Stop caring too much about Brother Chao's affairs!"
…
Xia Qingtang held her breath in the house - walking from the cotton mill to the steel mill, it was obviously referring to her. They had figured out her route and planned to attack her on the way.
In this day and age, if a lesbian encounters this kind of thing, her life is almost ruined, so no one dares to tell anyone, let alone call the police.
Calling the police is basically useless unless there is solid witnesses or physical evidence or the perpetrator is caught in the act. Otherwise, with the current criminal methods, this kind of case cannot be solved at all.
The result of calling the police is that the murderer cannot be caught. Instead, the girl has to bear everything alone and spend her life in pain under strange looks.
No wonder Kong Liangchao said those words that day. He was certain that Xia Qingtang would go back and beg him, because he had already set up such a vicious plan. He wanted to violate Xia Qingtang without any evidence, and then make her kneel down and beg him - beg him to marry her.
Otherwise, what other way out can a woman like this have?
Xia Qingtang's heart was beating like a drum. Her hatred for Kong Liangchao reached an unprecedented peak. She wanted to rush out immediately to find Kong Liangchao and die with him...
But fortunately she held it in. Her heartbeat slowly calmed down, and then she listened to everything outside more calmly.
She is no longer the same person she used to be. She has lived a lifetime. What is she afraid of? At worst, she can drag Kong Liangchao to hell with her!
The two of them didn't chat for too long. They went out after they cooled down. Xia Qingtang waited until everything was quiet and left here very safely. When he walked out of the yard, he didn't meet any passers-by.
She slowly walked along the secluded road to a normal road, thinking quickly as she walked, how she should deal with this situation.
It is very easy to avoid the 31st. Just find someone to take your shift or stay at a relative's house for the night.
But Kong Liangchao is a completely despicable villain. Even if Xia Qingtang escaped on the 31st, he would find other opportunities to attack her. Maybe Zhao Meizhen would even help him, and then her own mother and outsiders would work together to harm her.
So you can't avoid it by just hiding, you have to find other ways to eliminate the trouble once and for all.
As for the evidence Xia Qingtang found today, it can be of great help. We need these things to eliminate future troubles once and for all.
Kong Liangchao lived such an arrogant life, so naturally he had enemies, and more than one.
He had a classmate with whom he had a deep grudge, named Xu Jianming. They had similar backgrounds, similar looks, and similar abilities, but Xu Jianming's luck was always a little worse than Kong Liangchao's.
For example, in the original class of the Workers, Peasants and Soldiers University, the last spot was snatched away by the Kong family and given to Kong Liangchao. Xu Jianming was forced to do so and had no choice but to join the team. Although his family found a way to send him to a relatively prosperous countryside close to the city, it was still joining the team after all, and his life was definitely not as good as that of Kong Liangchao, who graduated from the Workers, Peasants and Soldiers University.
However, Xu Jianming is a hard-working person. After his family received the news, he started to review seriously. He passed the first round of the college entrance examination after it was resumed and is now studying in the city.
But the two families had already become enemies because of these things. Many years later, Xu Jianming was still trying to find a way to kill Kong Liangchao, but unfortunately he failed.
But now it’s different. Xia Qingtang plans to send the evidence in her hand to Xu Jianming. Of course, she won’t send all of it, just a part of it. She also wants to keep some in her hand just in case.
According to Xu Jianming's personality and his family's abilities, he would definitely take action against Kong Liangchao after receiving the evidence, and he would definitely kill him. After all, the matter of the Workers, Peasants and Soldiers University was an irreconcilable feud.
All Xia Qingtang had to do was wait. When the action started over there and Kong Liangchao was too busy to take care of himself, he would naturally no longer focus on Xia Qingtang.
But this alone is definitely not enough. The Kong family is definitely not an ordinary family. If Kong Liangchao survives the crisis and recovers in a year or two, what if he thinks of Xia Qingtang again? She can't be on guard against thieves all her life.
Xia Qingtang was so absorbed in his thoughts that he accidentally bumped into a kid who had just finished school. The kid screamed and fell backwards, and Xia Qingtang was also knocked back several steps. When he was about to fall, he was caught by a hand.
"Be careful!" A familiar voice sounded beside her.
Xia Qingtang was still in shock. She turned around and found that the person holding her was Yueyue's cousin Xie Jinxuan. She was stunned for a moment and thought it was such a coincidence.
"Is everything okay?" Xie Jinxuan asked with concern when she saw Xia Qingtang looked unhappy.
"Ah... I'm fine..." Xia Qingtang finally reacted and quickly thanked him. He then looked at the elementary school student who had fallen and said, "Little classmate, how are you?"
The little classmate was a boy, about seven or eight years old. He had already gotten up by himself. He stuck out his tongue at Xia Qingtang and ran away without saying a word.
"He ran so fast, he should be fine." Xie Jinxuan said with a smile: "You are fine too, that's even better."
Xia Qingtang forced a smile and said, "It's all thanks to you, otherwise I would definitely fall down."
"It was just a coincidence that we met. There's no need to be so polite. We're all acquaintances." Xie Jinxuan said, "But why did you come here? Aren't you a worker at the cotton mill? Aren't you going to work today and coming out to buy something?"
"Oh, just looking around." Xia Qingtang looked around and found that he had walked to the side of the department store, so he said, "Why is Comrade Xie here? Are you here to buy something?"
"No, I work nearby and just got off work." Xie Jinxuan pointed in the direction of the department store.
Today he was wearing a half-worn shirt and a pair of army green trousers, and a pair of Liberation shoes. The only patch on his body was on the leg of his trousers. Although he looked much more respectable than the last time they met, he still looked very simple.
However, everyone dressed like this in this era, and Xie Jinxuan was handsome, tall and long-legged, so his simple clothes made him look very elegant. Moreover, he had a bright smile and gentle and kind eyes, which made people feel safe and fond of him at first sight.
No matter how you look at it, he is a very good young man.
Xia Qingtang thought of something and her mind suddenly moved, but after the thought flashed through her mind, she immediately shook her head.
Xie Jinxuan is a very good person. No matter now or twenty years later, he is so kind and enthusiastic. Xia Qingtang feels that he should not use such a good person to avoid his own disaster.
As she thought about it, she sighed slightly, and a look of sadness and distress appeared on her face. Xie Jinxuan was probably very kind-hearted and immediately asked, "Why are you sighing? Did you encounter any troubles?"
"Yeah, I'm worried about how to find a partner to marry quickly." Perhaps because this person was his benefactor in his previous life, or perhaps because Xie Jinxuan was too gentle and amiable, Xia Qingtang subconsciously expressed his inner thoughts.
Xie Jinxuan was stunned at first, then she laughed: "Comrade Xia is also looking for a partner?"
Xia Qingtang felt a little embarrassed: "Yes, I am also looking for a partner."
"Why don't you ask your family to introduce you to a company? Or maybe there are companies out there."
"My situation is special, and my family definitely won't help me find a partner. As for my unit... that's even more special. Given my current situation, I'm afraid no one in our unit will introduce someone to me." Xia Qingtang laughed at himself.
She has been transferred to the warehouse to work as a porter. The whole factory will know that she has offended a big shot. Who would be so blind as to introduce a partner to her now?
And according to her plan, she could only look for it outside, such as a steel plant or something. As long as the plan went smoothly, she would definitely be able to get rid of the scourge Kong Liangchao once and for all.
Thinking of this, Xia Qingtang suddenly realized that it was getting late, so she quickly said, "I have to go back to the steel plant. Today is the early shift. If I don't go back for a long time, my classmates will be worried. Comrade Xie, thank you for today. Goodbye."
After saying that, she ran towards the steel plant.
Sure enough, when she returned to the Hu family, Hu Yanni was worried about her. Only when she saw that she had returned safely did she feel relieved and called her over for dinner.
On the first day Xia Qingtang moved in, he paid food coupons and money to Hu's mother, so Xia Qingtang could eat here with relative peace of mind.
Hu Yanni prepared dinner. She cooked porridge with a handful of peanuts, mung beans and millet, and made four thick coarse flour pancakes. There was also a large plate of stir-fried water spinach and leeks on the table. An egg was beaten into the leeks, which tasted particularly delicious.
The steel plant had very good benefits, and the Hu family had three people receiving wages and food coupons, so even for dinner they would be full and would never go hungry.
While eating, Xia Qingtang told Hu's mother that he wanted to find a partner.
Hu's mother was very happy and enthusiastic, and immediately asked: "What kind of person do you want to find? Our factory has many good ones."
Xia Qingtang had suffered enough from the so-called good conditions in her previous life, and her situation this time was special, so she said, "I want to find someone who is down-to-earth and steady, tall, hardworking, of good character, kind and upright. I don't have any other requirements. It would be best if the family conditions were a little worse, and someone who is ten years older than me would be fine."
The men she was talking about were all having trouble finding a spouse nowadays, but only men like them would marry her quickly. After all, she only had a pretty face, which was the only thing she could exchange with others.
Hu Yanni said quickly, "If your family conditions are not good, your life will be very hard in the future... You are so pretty, even if you have a falling out with your family now, you don't have to rush to find someone so bad. Just live in our house and let my mother find you someone better. After all, you are a textile worker wearing a white apron, and you are so pretty, you should find someone from a decent family."
Xia Qingtang smiled bitterly and said, "To be honest, I received a notice from the factory office today, asking me to work as a porter in the warehouse tomorrow. Moreover, the dormitory I applied for was not approved. Now, I only have two options. One is to go home and listen to my mother and marry that Kong guy. The other is to find a partner to marry, so that I can have a separate house to live in. But as a porter, how can I be picky about others? I have no other ideas, I can only find a down-to-earth person to marry as soon as possible. It would be best if he doesn't despise my current conditions."
The other three people at the table fell silent. Father and Mother Hu all had complicated looks. Hu Yanni was silent for a while and then slammed the table: "Did the Kong guy do it?"
"Who else could it be but him?"
Hu Yanni stood up immediately: "This is too much! I'll go find him!"
