Chapter 66: Who hasn’t dated a few men when they were young?
Ruan Anan keenly grasped the key point in Chen Hua's words.
She put down the roast chicken in her hand and raised her eyes with a half-smile: "From what my sister-in-law said, my reputation has spread before I even set foot on the island?"
"Not really! I don't know which black-hearted person spread it! The words were so dirty, it's unbearable to listen to!"
Once the conversation started, the four women talked one after another and uncovered the whole story of the rumor.
Ruan Anan sorted out the rumors and found two main ones.
First, people had said a long time ago that she was not disciplined in Haishi and was having an affair with Xu Yancheng's younger brother.
Second, some people said that she had caused a big disaster in Hai City, so she ran to Nansha Island to find Xu Yancheng to take over.
Ruan Anan picked up the teacup and took a sip. "The source of this dirty water...I'm afraid it's in Hai City."
"Haishi?" Gao Ruoyun was puzzled. "The number of people on our island who came from Haishi can be counted on one's fingers, and even fewer who know Captain Xu. Could it be... Zhu Yaoyao? Or Captain Xu?"
"It's not Zhu Yaoyao." Ruan Anan said firmly, "She was also deceived by the rumors, so she thinks I'm a fickle and bad woman. As for my wife..."
She scoffed, "He's not going to get anything out of me even if you hit him with three sticks. He'd never go around telling anyone about me. Besides, if such a rumor gets out, it'll only bring shame upon himself. He wouldn't do that."
Chen Hua was furious when he heard this. He grabbed Ruan Anan's hand and said urgently, "Sister, don't be angry. We know everything! It's just those gossipmongers who are talking nonsense!"
"Right, right, right!" Liu Feng quickly chimed in. "It's a new society now, and we value free love! Don't even think about you and Captain Xu's brother being innocent. Even if there was something going on, that's all in the past! Who hasn't dated a few people when they were young? If you don't pick and choose, how can you know which one is truly good to you?"
Her hands were tightly held by her two sisters-in-law, and listening to their heartfelt words, Ruan Anan felt a warm current surge up from the bottom of her heart.
The women in the military family compound on Nansha Island are so nice!
Suppressing the slight warmth in her eyes, she nodded solemnly: "Don't worry, sisters-in-law, this little bit of dirty water that is made out of nothing can't stain me, Ruan Anan. I know what kind of person I am, and those who trust me know it too."
She changed the subject, her eyes sharpening. "But I can't tolerate any sand in my eyes. I will definitely find out who is behind this!"
Chen Hua is also beautiful and comes from Kyoto. When she first arrived, she also suffered a lot from rumors and gossips. At this moment, she can empathize with them the most.
"Yes! We must find them! When I get back, I'll make a list for you of all the people who came from Hai City!"
Gao Ruoyun also expressed her willingness: "I'll help you investigate who Qi Sisi is with recently! Maybe it's her cousin!"
Liu Feng, being older and more prudent, warned, "This must be done quietly. Don't let that evil-hearted person get on his guard."
When Ruan Anan saw that the three of them were sincerely thinking about her, her nose suddenly felt sore. What kind of fairy friendship is this!
She took a deep breath and raised her teacup. "Sisters-in-law, Yunyun, no more words! Come, let's have tea instead of wine. Cheers!"
“Done!”
The four teacups clinked together crisply, and the tea rippled slightly, reflecting several equally determined faces.
But at this moment, an untimely knock on the door broke the warm atmosphere in the room.
Ruan Anan put down the cup with a reluctant look, then stood up and opened the door.
Outside the door, Qi Sisi, with half of her face swollen and red, was leading two men wearing red armbands in a haughty manner.
One of them is short and fat, the other is tall and thin. They look like they came out of a comedy, which is quite funny.
The short and fat man with the red armband saw the shiny plate of roast chicken as soon as he entered the door.
His Adam's apple rolled, and he tried to look dignified: "Comrade Ruan Anan, someone reported you for intentionally injuring and assaulting others! Do you have anything to explain? If not, come with us..."
As soon as the short and fat man with the red armband finished speaking, Ruan Anan looked stunned, and then she started crying.
"What do you mean by intentional injury? I'm Sisi's sister-in-law. I beat her to teach her manners on behalf of my godfather. What did I do wrong?"
Who can't act? I'll kill you with my acting skills!
"Sister-in-law? Godfather?" The fat armband and the thin armband were both stunned and looked at each other.
Captain Xu and Commander Qi... have this kind of relationship? How come I haven't heard of it?
"Yes!" Gao Ruoyun immediately attacked the two armbands.
"My aunt adopted Captain Xu as her godson. Ruan Anan is my cousin's wife, and Qi Sisi is her elder sister-in-law!"
She raised her chin and spoke loudly, "Qi Sisi ran to my sister-in-law's house, pointed her nose and cursed in the street, she has no respect for her elders and is ruining the family reputation! My cousin's wife was so angry that she taught this ignorant sister a lesson on behalf of the elders. What's wrong with that?"
Fat Armband was completely confused.
They knew that Gao Ruoyun was the niece of Commander Qi. She said that Comrade Xu's wife was Commander Qi's daughter-in-law, so it must be true.
Thinking of this, the two people with red armbands subconsciously shrank their necks and their momentum decreased.
Nowadays, who doesn’t have brothers and sisters?
Disharmony between sisters-in-law and fights between sisters are common "family affairs" in the family compound.
As long as no one is killed, even an honest judge will find it difficult to make a judgment.
Not to mention that the security team has always been reluctant to do anything and has always been a smooth-talker.
Seeing Ruan Anan use a little effort to turn a bad incident of slapping someone in public into a conflict between a sister-in-law and a sister-in-law.
Qi Sisi was so angry that she was shaking all over. "Ruan Anan, putting aside the facts, did you hit me?"
"Putting aside the facts? Wouldn't that be the same as admitting that what I said is the truth?"
Ruan Anan wiped away her tears instantly, as if she was not the one crying just now.
"I don't think I did anything wrong. Yu Qing, I admire your parents. You came out to spread rumors and ran to my house to question me, which brought shame to the Qi family. I beat you because I was fulfilling my duty as the eldest sister-in-law."
"Yu Li, I, Ruan Anan, am also a hero. If someone rides on my neck and shits on me, shouldn't I fight back?"
"From a legal perspective, someone broke into my home without permission and my personal safety was threatened. It's okay to act in self-defense, right?"
"Good! Well said!" Liu Feng's blood boiled and he couldn't help but applaud.
This was the first time she had seen a woman who was so good at acting, reasoning, and even slapping people in the face!
Chen Hua nodded excitedly, "Yes, yes, yes! We all saw it! She was the one who came here first to start a fight and started cursing. Her curses were really nasty!"
Gao Ruoyun also said at the right time: "I stopped her at home, but she insisted on causing trouble. She deserved the beating!"
The fat armband man was instantly brainwashed and nodded, "That makes sense!"
Thin Sleeveband didn't expect that official business would turn into a family matter, and glared at Qi Sisi fiercely.
"Comrade Qi Sisi, look at what you've done! You've completely disgraced Commander Qi!"
As he spoke, he waved his hand violently, as if to shake off some bad luck, "Little Fatty! Let's go! Pack up!"
"Yes! Captain!" The fat man with the armband hurried to catch up as if he had been pardoned. Before leaving, he did not forget to pull the stunned Qi Sisi.
"What are you still doing here? Waiting to eat your sister-in-law's roast chicken?"
Qi Sisi looked at Ruan Anan drinking tea calmly, then looked at the two rebellious military wives, and felt a mouthful of blood stuck in her throat.
But she couldn't beat him, and she couldn't convince him either. If she didn't leave, would she continue to stay here and be humiliated?
"Ruan Anan, I won't let this go!"
After saying this, Qi Sisi left angrily.
