Nini smiled happily after getting the answer, and couldn't wait to take Zhou Yunwan to see the room. When the Liu family members who stayed behind saw this scene, their faces became uglier than each other.
"I heard that it was the second daughter-in-law of the Liu family who went through Comrade Ren Zhou's box and stole things. That's why Comrade Ren Zhou didn't want to live in their house anymore. Now, he's moving to the village chief's house."
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, how could they do such a thing? It really brings shame to Chenjiagou."
"That's right. If it gets out, people outside will probably think that everyone in Chenjiagou is like her."
"No wonder I saw so many people from the crew buying locks this morning. They're afraid that someone in the village might steal things like Liu's second daughter-in-law did, so they're on guard against us."
"What's the saying? One bad apple spoils the whole barrel."
The sound of the villagers pointing and gossiping around her reached the ears of the second daughter-in-law of the Liu family from time to time. Coupled with the resentful looks of her family members, she was so embarrassed that she wished she could find a hole in the ground to crawl into.
When the village chief saw this, his expression froze for a moment. What the villagers said was right. Their village was such a small place, and if they prospered together, they all prospered and suffered together. Sometimes one person's face represented the face of the entire village, so it was justified to scold them.
However, he and Old Man Liu have been good friends for many years, and considering their old friendship, he couldn't say anything more. But he was also the village chief, so after thinking for a while, he finally said, "Then Comrade Zhou will live in my house from now on. Comrade Zhou's luggage can be moved in later."
...
...
Not long after, Zhou Yunwan's luggage was delivered to the village chief's house.
As the only granddaughter of the village chief, Nini's room is naturally spacious and tidy. It was previously prepared for Nini's parents, but now that her parents are not around, it is naturally for Nini to live in alone.
Nini always liked beautiful people and things, so she had a good impression of Zhou Yunwan. She looked at Zhou Yunwan with her big eyes without blinking and said, "Pretty sister, you can use my room as you like. I don't mind."
"Thank you, Nini." Zhou Yunwan thanked her for her enthusiasm, but she had already formed a habit, so she put all the things in the box and only took out a few items that were used more frequently.
After tidying up, Zhou Yunwan planned to have lunch with Shen Yanli. When she was leaving, she happened to meet Cheng Jinche who had just returned from scout the place. The two of them met each other, and a hint of embarrassment inexplicably appeared on each other's faces.
Shen Yanli was standing nearby and noticed this keenly.
Cheng Jinche cleared his throat, greeted politely, and then asked why she and Shen Yanli were here and whether they had anything to do with the village chief.
Zhou Yunwan suppressed her strange expression, and without hiding anything, she told him the whole story.
After listening to this, Cheng Jinche frowned, not knowing what to say. After a long silence, he said dryly, "When you go out, remember to protect your personal property."
Zhou Yunwan, who had suffered losses, deeply agreed with this statement. No matter how much property loss one suffered, one would be the one who felt uncomfortable psychologically.
The two of them didn't say anything, and Cheng Jinche turned and went into his residence.
Zhou Yunwan was about to leave, but she found that Shen Yanli had stopped and his eyes were still vaguely on Cheng Jinche.
After a while, I saw his eyebrows slightly frowned, and a faint arc appeared at the corners of his lips: "He lives here too?"
Zhou Yunwan observed his expression and explained in a low voice: "He is the director and has lived in the village chief's house since the beginning."
Hearing this, Shen Yanli said nothing more, only saying that he would go eat first. Noticing his unhappiness, Zhou Yunwan chased after him and tugged at the corner of his clothes, shaking her white and tender fingertips, and jokingly asked, "What's wrong? Are you jealous again?"
Chen Yanli recalled that something was obviously wrong when they looked at each other just now. Although he wanted to ask, he was afraid that he was too sensitive, so he could only pretend to be indifferent and reached out to grab her arm, holding her tightly in his arms.
He lowered his eyes and stared at her, trying to read something from her face, but unfortunately, there was nothing.
He smiled and said in a slightly ruffian tone: "Is your man such a petty person?"
His sudden intimate action startled Zhou Yunwan. She quickly pushed him away and looked around. She was relieved when she saw no one saw her. Then she glared at him coquettishly and said deliberately, "You are it!"
Chen Yanli's eyes were gloomy, he didn't want to be so petty and have some groundless suspicions, but Cheng Jinche had a good impression of Wanwan before, and now they were about to live under the same roof, any man would have a sense of crisis.
"Hey, don't be like this." Seeing that he didn't say anything, Zhou Yunwan quietly pinched the soft flesh on his waist. When he lowered his eyes to look at her, she whispered in his ear, "Director Cheng has a girlfriend."
Shen Yanli was stunned at first, then his expression relaxed for a moment, and he pretended to be indifferent and asked back: "Really?"
Zhou Yunwan nodded: "Can I still lie to you?"
As she spoke, her thoughts wandered, and she recalled the scene she had witnessed earlier.
About a week ago, the minibus responsible for purchasing and transporting supplies brought over the first batch of supplies, including filming props and fresh fruits, which were delivered to everyone during dinner.
After helping to organize the props, Zhou Yunwan went for a walk along the edge of the field as usual, but she noticed some movement coming from the minibus. Thinking someone was stealing something, she picked up a big stone and quietly went over to catch the person red-handed.
Anyway, the place where the minibus was parked was not very hidden, and shouting a few times would attract the villagers to come over, so she was not worried about any danger. However, she did not expect that she would accidentally discover Cheng Jinche's "affair".
He was kissing a woman passionately at the time, and the intensity of the kiss was inappropriate for children.
And that woman was none other than the currently popular female star Fang Lingxin.
They didn't seem to expect to be caught by her and were very flustered. Cheng Jinche adjusted his shirt and winked at her, asking her to be quiet.
Zhou Yunwan didn't expect to encounter the legendary outdoor play. She was so shocked that she couldn't speak for a moment, and naturally forgot to scream.
She once thought that as a person educated in modern ideas, she had seen all kinds of storms and waves, and was considered open-minded enough in this era. She didn't expect that there were people who were more open-minded than her.
Also, aren’t these two sworn enemies? How come you slept together?
Zhou Yunwan had a lot of questions in her head, but there was no need for them to explain everything to an outsider like her. They just asked her to keep it a secret and not talk about anything else. They gave her a number of conditions and of course threatened her as well.
Zhou Yunwan is not someone who likes to gossip everywhere. Besides, for the sake of her own future, she will not expose them at this critical juncture. Who would do something that is not good for themselves?
She pretended not to see it and didn't tell anyone.
Only the three of them knew about this.
Of course, she didn’t plan to tell Shen Yanli.
Although Shen Yanli was tight-lipped and not the kind of person who gossiped, she had already promised the other party and naturally could not break the contract.
Zhou Yunwan considered her words carefully and said mysteriously, "Anyway, he has a girlfriend and they are in a good relationship."
