Chapter 39: Backfire
Mrs. Huo was very pleased to see that Lin Yilan was able to establish her own prestige among the students in such a short period of time.
This is enough to show that Lin Yilan has a strong ability to adapt.
Mrs. Huo's initial worries have now disappeared.
"Teacher Lin, turn right and you will reach the school gate. You should be familiar with it. I still have to go to the library, so I'll go first." Jia Hanchao raised his hand and scratched the back of his head, and said with a smile.
Lin Yilan nodded: "Thank you."
After leaving the campus, Mrs. Huo squinted her eyes and smiled at Lin Yilan: "Granddaughter-in-law, do you like your current job? I always thought that being a teacher was a bit too hard for you."
"This is not hard work at all, grandma, you don't know. Compared to the days when I practiced martial arts in the mountains, this is so much more enjoyable. It also allows me to experience what it feels like to be a master!" Lin Yilan smiled and took the opportunity to support Madam Huo's arm.
In front is a bustling snack street, where students and teachers from Ocean University choose to dine.
Cheap, delicious, and very close to Haida University!
"Grandma, didn't you just say you were hungry? If you don't mind, I'd like to treat you to some rice with toppings here! It's not only delicious, but also very filling!" Lin Yilan said, pointing to the fast food restaurant behind her.
Mrs. Huo hesitated for a few seconds and quickly nodded.
If Lin Yilan hadn't taken her there, she probably wouldn't have had the chance to eat this kind of street snack in her life.
Back at the Huo family, there were many rules to follow. The family doctor and nutritionist were so strict that they had to calculate exactly how many grams of salt she consumed in each meal.
The two sat down in the fast food restaurant, and Lin Yilan diligently took a tissue to help Mrs. Huo wipe the table again.
When the dishes were served, they were just as Lin Yilan said, cheap and with large portions!
One serving is only ten dollars!
"Grandma, try it quickly." Lin Yilan said as she helped Mrs. Huo get disposable tableware.
Mrs. Huo picked up the chopsticks, picked up a piece of braised pork and put it in her mouth. It was fat but not greasy, and the taste was comparable to that made by the chef at home.
On the contrary, this kind of seasoning is very generous, which makes people more appetizing.
Four boxed lunches were placed in front of Lin Yilan. Seeing her shy expression, Mrs. Huo chuckled, "Silly girl, eat quickly. You're growing up now, so you need to eat more."
"Yeah!" After hearing what Mrs. Huo said, Lin Yilan lowered her head and quickly picked up the food in the bowl as if she had received an imperial decree.
Just when Lin Yilan was eating happily, there was suddenly a series of ping-pong sounds behind her.
Lin Yilan glanced back and saw a woman being pinned down by a burly man. He was pinching her neck with one hand and slapping her face madly with the other.
"What do you, a woman, know? I'm telling you, prices are so high these days, and you keep putting so much meat in there every time, are you going to be able to continue your business?"
"We're all students, so it won't matter if we earn less!"
"How dare you talk back! Bitch, I'll punish you today!"
After a few slaps, half of the woman's face swelled up like a pig's head.
Well, they should be the owner and the owner's wife of this store.
Some students treat them as if they were air. This must have happened more than once, right?
Lin Yilan originally didn't want to get involved in other people's family affairs.
But when she heard the boss's wife's tearful and pleading voice, Lin Yilan suddenly thought of her mother.
The most profound scene in her memory was her mother kneeling on the ground and begging her father. She could no longer remember the specific words, but unfortunately, what she got in return was a beating from her father.
When she thought of this, Lin Yilan couldn't control herself and turned around and walked quickly to the man's side.
She raised her hand, and moved it up and down, but she only used a third of her strength!
The man was hit and thrown back a meter, and his body knocked over the tables and chairs.
Everyone stared at Lin Yilan with surprise, as if she were a monster.
"You despise women so much? Aren't you your mother's daughter? How could you come into being without your mother? Today I'll see if I can beat you up!" Lin Yilan's face was bulging with anger.
The proprietress standing nearby had never seen such a scene before. She stumbled to her feet, wailing and screaming, "Murder! Murder! Call the police! Catch this person! Don't let her get away!"
Lin Yilan turned around and looked at the proprietress in disbelief. She was clearly helping her.
Seeing this, Mrs. Huo hurried to Lin Yilan's side. She gently patted Lin Yilan's shoulder and said, "Yilan, this is someone else's family matter."
Lin Yilan originally really intended to teach this ignorant man a lesson!
But grandma has already spoken.
"I'm telling you, don't think that women are a vulnerable group that's easy to bully. If you do this, you will get your comeuppance sooner or later!" Lin Yilan pointed at the man on the ground, still unwilling to give in, and scolded him word by word.
As soon as he finished speaking, four or five patrol policemen, who were found from nowhere, surrounded Lin Yilan.
"It's her. She just slapped my husband down!" When the proprietress saw the police coming, she immediately pretended to be a vulnerable person and pointed at Lin Yilan and accused her.
I am angry that they don’t fight back and I feel sad that they are unfortunate.
This sentence is vividly demonstrated by the proprietress.
"This is all a misunderstanding, police comrade!" Mrs. Huo quickly stepped forward to persuade.
The police officer glanced at Mrs. Huo and then said indifferently, "Is this a misunderstanding? Let's take the man back first. You two, tell us who was beaten and come with us to the police station to find out what happened!"
Lin Yilan bit her lower lip. She glanced back at Madam Huo, forced a smile, and whispered, "Don't worry, grandma. I haven't done anything bad. I'll be back soon. But, grandma, you go back first. Be sure to be careful."
Mrs. Huo wanted to say something, but Lin Yilan had already been taken into the police car.
Suddenly, she felt a cramp in her stomach.
Unfortunately, Lin Yilan didn't see the scene where Mrs. Huo was about to faint from abdominal pain.
Lin Yilan recounted the whole incident at the police station.
After the police took the statement, they walked out. For a long time, no one was outside the door, and she was the only one left sitting in the interrogation room.
Time flies outside, but for Lin Yilan, every second feels like a year.
Lin Yilan paced back and forth in the interrogation room. If it was really a crime, she would admit it!
I don’t know how long it took, but the door of the interrogation room was opened.
Lin Yilan, who was curled up in the corner, raised her head in a daze. In a trance, she seemed to see Huo Juncheng walking straight towards her.
No, this is definitely not real, it's just an illusion!
Lin Yilan murmured in her heart, but the tall and strong figure in front of her was approaching step by step.
She looked again and saw that the man in front of her was Huo Juncheng!
