Chapter 17 Chapter 17 (correct typo) Orange Soda
Li Congjun chased after him, his face sneerful: "Why are you so arrogant? I thought you'd find a good man after breaking off your engagement with me, but now you're still wandering around here alone?"
"Are you looking for a rich guy here? I advise you to be more self-respecting. The people who come and go near the cinema are all married men. Don't end up being accused of being unfaithful to your wife."
After a burst of ridicule, seeing Ye Tan still walking forward calmly, as if he didn't exist, Li Congjun felt so choked up in his chest that he could hardly breathe.
Thinking of the recent overt and covert ridicule of his colleagues, they all said that he was dumped by his girlfriend, and even exaggerated the incident of Ye Tan bringing him meals.
He said that he asked his girlfriend to bring him food in such hot weather, and he deserved to be kicked out. No one would be so troublesome as him.
Although it was all spread privately, the grain station was so small that it was hard for Li Congjun not to know about it.
Every time he saw groups of people laughing and chatting, he felt that they were talking about him. Every time he felt like his heart was infarcted and he felt ashamed, and he hated Ye Tan even more for bringing him such negative influence.
Now when I see Ye Tan, I want to vent my anger, but after saying so much, it seems like I am just performing a monologue, and Ye Tan doesn't seem to care.
Li Congjun looked at the figure in front of him with suffocation. A breeze blew slowly, making the light-colored skirt of Ye Tan float between her thin white legs. Her slender waist also looked even more slender. Just looking at her back, she was so charming that people felt from the bottom of their hearts that she was a beauty.
Li Congjun knew that Ye Tan was very beautiful. In the past, Ye Tan was indeed a charming beauty that made people pity her. But when he saw her again this time, he found that compared to her previous fragility, the current Ye Tan had a bit more calmness and ease. Although she was still the same person, people did not dare to desecrate her easily, and she was also more attractive than before.
The more unattainable it is, the more it makes people itch.
He couldn't help but feel disgusted, and when he thought that this woman was supposed to be his, he felt twisted and unwilling.
If they weren't on the street, he would have torn her skirt off to see how she could still look at him with an indifferent expression.
There's nothing I can do now, but can't I just disgust her verbally?
"You don't know yet?" Li Congjun chased after him.
"I heard that the quota for going to the countryside has been almost decided. Your brother has a job so he doesn't have to worry about it, but you don't have a job, so you will have to go to the countryside when the time comes." Li Congjun laughed.
Ye Tan didn't need to look, just by listening to the sound he was laughing, he knew how disgusting his smile was.
This bitch is really in a bad mood, I have to deal with her.
Ye Tan rubbed his wrist, but after that he felt that it would dirty his hands, so he put them down and decided to use his feet.
Li Congjun continued chattering, "Life in the countryside is not easy. There's endless farm work to do every day, and there's not enough food and drink. It's even more dangerous for a young and beautiful girl like you. Going to a place like that is like walking into a den of wolves. There are so many people who want to take advantage of you. You might even be stripped naked while you're asleep at night."
Li Congjun looked at Ye Tan while speaking, and his face turned red with some disgusting thoughts. "A country bumpkin's dirty hands are touching a beautiful woman like you, and you..."
Ye Tan kicked out, "Get lost!" The kick hit him directly at the fork in the road.
Li Congjun, who had been beeping non-stop, let out an "Ah!" and his body bent in a strange posture, curled up into a ball, his eyes rolling back in pain.
"Snap!"
Li Congjun felt like one of his testicles had exploded. He felt so painful and frightened that he couldn't even breathe.
After kicking, Ye Tan took a step back and was not hit by the bicycle. He turned around and looked at Li Congjun who was rolling his eyes in pain, and sneered in his heart, he deserved it!
At this time, everyone around who heard Li Congjun's wailing looked over. Joining in the fun is the nature of the Chinese people in their genes, and all kinds of aunts and sisters were quickly rushing over.
Ye Tan rolled her eyes and had no choice but to go over and pinch Li Congjun in the middle, otherwise if he fainted, she might be in trouble.
When his eyes rolled back to black, she took two steps back, put on a frightened expression, covered her eyes and cried, "He, he teased me, I, I was scared..."
When the crowd heard Ye Tan's words and looked at the half of her face that was exposed, they knew that she was a beautiful woman and immediately imagined what had happened.
Someone said "Pooh" and said, "How dare you tease a woman in broad daylight? You are such a piece of shit."
"This is just hooliganism. Let's send him to the Revolutionary Committee. If people like him aren't educated, who knows what female comrades they'll harm in the future."
"Yes, yes, yes. Send him to the Revolutionary Committee and let the working people criticize and denounce his crimes."
"Hey, girl, you're with us. Hey, where's the little girl?"
Ye Tan had already run away in confusion.
"The little girl is shy and scared. Let's go. Let's not look for him anymore. We all saw this hooligan molesting a female comrade anyway."
"Yes, let's go together. We can't let the gangster get away."
The people of that era were still very enthusiastic. They verbally demanded punishment from Li Congjun, who was curled up on the ground. Some enthusiastic people were about to step forward to grab Li Congjun and send him to the Revolutionary Committee.
Li Congjun, who had recovered from the pain and was gasping for breath, had also survived the most painful period. After hearing what was said around him, he knew that he could not be sent to the Revolutionary Committee.
He endured the pain, pulled up his collar to cover the lower half of his face, climbed up, broke away from the hands around him and ran. In the process, he pushed down a kind-hearted aunt, who cried out and sat on the ground, her butt hurting from the fall.
"Okay, you dare to hurt others, everyone, chase them!"
The people around were also angry when they heard this. "How dare you run? Chase him. If you catch him, beat him up and send him to the committee."
Many people followed to chase Li Congjun, shouting slogans all the way, "Chase him, we can't let the gangster go!"
When the noise faded away, Ye Tan walked out from the corner and found that there was no one around.
Ye Tan secretly hoped that the enthusiastic masses could catch up with Li Congjun, criticize him and teach him a lesson.
Ye Tan continued walking while humming a tune in a good mood, and then stopped.
The joy on her face faded a little, but her eyes were shining as she looked at the man approaching.
Gu Zhao walked closer and looked at the pretty girl with deep eyes: "Sorry, I'm late."
Ye Tan didn’t know whether he had seen the excitement just now, but his expression was natural, as if he hadn’t seen it.
Ye Tan breathed a sigh of relief. She didn't want a man to see her fierce side so early, especially her moves that targeted men's lower body parts. She was afraid that Gu Zhao would be scared.
Ye Tan looked at him with a smile, "I'm the one who came early."
Gu Zhao also smiled deeply and stretched out his hands behind his back: "Drink, please."
Ye Tan lowered his eyes and saw a bottle of yellow soda, a thin-necked glass with a simple slogan on it, "Orange Soda".
Ye Tan took it without hesitation: "Thank you."
Ye Tan took a sip through the straw. It tasted sour and sweet, with a cool feeling, and did not have the strong flavor of essence and saccharin like in later generations. It was truly a perfect summer drink in this season.
“It’s delicious.”
