"Maybe for you, the time we've been together isn't that long, but in my heart, I've loved you for more than ten years."
"I have always hoped that one day I could hold your hand and watch you put on your wedding dress for me."
As he spoke, Meng Xunzhou took out a simple but exquisitely polished ring from his shirt pocket and held it in front of Song Shishi.
He held up the ring, knelt on one knee, and looked up at her.
His eyes were fixed on Song Shishi, full of affection and determination, as if everything in the world had ceased to exist and she was the only one in his eyes.
“Although I can’t give you a rich life.
But I swear, I will protect you with my life for the rest of my life.
will you marry me?"
Song Shishi's eyes instantly became moist and tears welled up in them.
...
...
Her lips trembled slightly and she was too excited to speak.
She had imagined the scene where Meng Xunzhou proposed to her again, but she had never expected that he would go to this extent and say such words.
Her heart was filled with emotion and happiness.
She nodded vigorously, choking with sobs and extending her left hand to Meng Xunzhou: "I do."
Meng Xunzhou raised the corners of his mouth, revealing a gentle smile, which seemed to be able to dispel all the haze in the world.
He gently picked up the ring and put it on Song Shishi's slender finger with gentle and pious movements. Then he stood up and hugged her tightly in his arms.
Zheng Peilan watched this scene from the side, tears of emotion flashing in her eyes. She raised her hand and gently wiped the corners of her eyes, her face full of relief.
She hoped that her daughter could marry a good man.
She has watched Meng Xunzhou grow up since he was a child. Both in character and ability, he can be considered outstanding.
Now that she sees her two children are finally getting married, she is happy from the bottom of her heart.
…
An Jinsheng was being held in the detention center at this time.
The small cell was dark and damp, with mottled water stains on the walls and a pungent musty smell.
He huddled in a corner, his prison uniform tattered and dirty, his messy hair covering his face.
His eyes were lifeless and he uttered nervous murmurs from time to time, but no one could hear what he was saying.
Now he is waiting for the court's verdict. There are only two possible outcomes for him: either die in prison or be locked up in a mental hospital for life.
When Zhou Xingxue heard the news, she completely collapsed.
"He might as well have died right then. If he had made such a fuss, wouldn't someone else be able to break my spine in the future?"
Zhou Jianguo was smoking a pipe, squatting in front of the door, his brows furrowed.
Old Mrs. Zhou leaned on her cane and snorted coldly.
"Wasn't it that educated youth surnamed Yang who caused all this? You only know how to yell at home. Why don't you go and ask for an explanation? You are useless!"
After being reminded by Old Lady Zhou, Zhou Xingxue's eyes lit up.
Yes, it was Yang Huifang who reported it.
She is the real culprit who forged evidence and slandered public officials.
No matter what caused An Jinsheng to end up like this, Yang Huifang must be held responsible.
She couldn't bear this in vain.
Zhou Xingxue went to the Youth League Institute excitedly.
Since Yang Huifang is an educated youth, let other educated youth deal with her.
Zhou Xingxue would never be as stupid as he did last time and rush forward to get beaten.
That crazy woman Yang Huifang is not a vegetarian.
Zhou Xingxue rushed to the Youth League Home in a hurry.
Before he even stepped into the gate of the Youth Hostel, he started shouting at the top of his voice:
"Everyone, come out! Everyone, come out! Something big has happened!"
At that time, some of the educated youth were sorting out the supplies they had just received, and some were chatting in the yard. Upon hearing the urgent and somewhat angry shouts, they put down what they were doing and gathered from all corners.
When everyone gathered around, Zhou Xingxue's chest heaved violently, his face full of indignation.
She vividly described how Yang Huifang forged evidence and slandered Song Shishi.
Every word seemed to be squeezed out from between teeth, and he added fuel to the fire from time to time, portraying An Jinsheng as an innocent victim.
"This Yang Huifang is so audacious! We can't let people like this run wild in our Huaiqing Brigade. Song Zhiqing has made great contributions to our Huaiqing Brigade. We must get an explanation for this matter!"
Her voice was high-pitched and sharp, echoing in the Youth League compound.
After hearing this, the educated youth were immediately furious.
The originally quiet yard was instantly filled with noisy discussions, and everyone's faces showed expressions of disbelief and anger.
After all, Chen Hui and Zhang Qingmei were in charge of all matters big and small at the educated youth site. Now that someone among the educated youth had done something like this, they naturally could not sit idly by.
"That's too much! She must be punished!"
A young male educated youth had a red face, his fists were clenched so tightly that the knuckles turned white, and the anger on his face was undisguised.
"That's right. If this kind of person stays in our Youth Home, he's just a dead rotten apple!"
The female educated youth also echoed this, their eyes full of disgust.
Those who were speaking were all old educated youth.
The several female educated youth who came with Yang Huifang and her group didn't say anything.
Under Zhou Xingxue's instigation, the educated youth became increasingly agitated, like a lit powder keg ready to explode at any moment.
Everyone expressed their intention to go and settle accounts with Yang Huifang. For a moment, everyone was indignant, and a group of people walked towards Yang Huifang's residence in a mighty manner.
Chen Hui and Zhang Qingmei walked in the front.
When he arrived at Yang Huifang's residence, Chen Hui wanted to go up and knock on the door, but one of the educated youth was very emotional and had no patience at all, so he went up and kicked the door open.
The door panel hit the wall with a loud bang.
"Yang Huifang, come out!"
Zhou Xingxue curled the corners of his mouth, stood behind the crowd and shouted at the top of his voice, with a fierceness in his voice.
Yang Huifang was sitting in the house reading a book. She was frightened by the sudden noise and trembled all over, and the book in her hand almost fell to the ground.
She looked up and saw so many people standing at the door in a menacing manner. Her heart skipped a beat and an ominous premonition came over her.
But she still pretended to be calm and tried to make her voice sound calm.
"What are you doing?"
Several educated youth stepped into the house and rushed to Yang Huifang.
One of the male educated youths almost poked Yang Huifang in the face with his finger and cursed her viciously:
"Don't play dumb! We all know that you forged evidence and slandered Song Zhiqing.
It’s a waste of time that Song Zhiqing took care of you when he was in Huaiqing Brigade.
How long has it been since they returned to the city? You did such a heartless and immoral thing behind their backs.
You must go to the Public Security Bureau with us today and explain everything clearly!"
The male educated youth’s eyes were wide open as if they were about to spit fire, and the muscles on his face were trembling slightly with anger.
When Yang Huifang heard this, her face turned pale instantly, as if all her strength had been drained away.
Her body shook, but she was still unwilling to be taken away like this.
But she thought that if she admitted it, her life would be over, so she forced herself to refute:
"Who are you listening to? Don't try to frame me for something I didn't do!"
Her voice trembled slightly and beads of sweat appeared on her forehead.
