Cheng Jingmo had no idea what was going on.
Soldiers never gossip about other people's families. His comrades knew about other people's family affairs because their wives told them.
But my wife... is always the topic of discussion among others!
The family members had focused their attention on him during this period, and he thought Yu Xiangnian had done something to attract attention again!
As long as Yu Xiangnian didn't do anything bad, just watch it. He is used to it anyway!
Wu Xiaomin was very nervous.
She could only comfort herself that it was just gossip passed around among family members, and no one would investigate the truth, so it would die down after a while.
Before we knew it, it was already September, and Yu Xiangnian had been here for four months.
Qiu Yang's vacation is over and he is going abroad to continue his studies.
That day, Yu Xiangnian invited him to a state-owned restaurant for dinner as a farewell party for him, and also invited Yu Xiangyang, Cheng Jingmo and Xiaojie.
Yu Xiangnian raised the wine glass filled with red wine and said, "Come, let's toast. I wish Qiu Yang a smooth journey and a safe return!"
Everyone clinked their glasses and took a sip. Qiu Yang sighed, "I don't know when we'll meet again. When I was abroad, I really missed the family compound."
Yu Xiangyang rarely stopped arguing with him and told him a few sincere words, "You are the most promising of the kids in the family compound. When you return to China, you will definitely stay in Beijing to develop your career. Maybe you will even bring back a foreign girl."
Yu Xiangnian smiled but said nothing.
Qiu Yang said, "I can't handle foreign girls. I'll introduce them to you when the time comes."
Yu Xiangyang replied: "Keep it for yourself. I'm not used to drinking foreign liquor."
Qiu Yang said, "Once you've tasted it, you won't want to let go."
Yu Xiangyang replied: "You talk as if you've tasted it!"
There was not a single dull minute during the meal. Yu Xiangyang was able to get along with everyone. After talking about Qiu Yang, he talked about Yu Xiangnian, and after talking about Yu Xiangnian, he talked about Cheng Jingmo. The meal did not end until a bottle of wine was finished.
Yu Xiangnian went to pay the bill and Yu Xiangyang went to the bathroom.
Cheng Jingmo raised his glass, stood up and said, "Qiu Yang, I want to apologize to you for what happened last time. I was impulsive. I'm sorry!"
He drank the last sip of wine in the glass.
Qiu Yang raised his eyebrows, stood up, and said, "And the time before that?"
Cheng Jingmo didn't say anything.
What I mean is that last time, he was right!
Qiu Yang sneered, "Alright, blame me for saying those things! Don't take it to heart, it wasn't directed at you. Nian Nian didn't want to get married back then, so anyone who wanted to marry her would be in trouble! Nian Nian and I grew up together, we've seen each other naked, and we thought of each other as siblings. There's no way we could possibly like each other. I said those things purely to put you off!"
After a pause, he added, "But seeing you two like this now, I'm also very happy. I wish you all the best!"
There was no more wine in Qiu Yang's cup. He held the cup upside down to his lips and dripped the last two drops of wine into his mouth.
When Yu Xiangnian came back after paying the bill, she seemed to see Cheng Jingmo looking at her and smiling foolishly. When she looked closely again, she found that she was mistaken.
Cheng Jingmo had no expression at all!
Qiu Yang went home, Yu Xiangyang returned to the dormitory, and the three of them returned to the courtyard.
When passing by the playground, I saw that it was surrounded by family members and there were sounds of quarreling.
Listening carefully, it seemed like the voices of Liu Zhen and Wang Hongxiang.
Wang Hongxiang said, "With Comrade Yu's conditions, she's worried about not getting married. Why would her parents pressure someone to marry her? What you're saying is just spreading rumors!"
Liu Zhen agreed, "That's right! Forget about Comrade Yu's appearance. Just look at how she behaves. If you want to marry her, you'll have to wait in line!"
Others said, "How is she doing? Everyone here knows she's lazy and pretentious. If her parents didn't support her, who would marry her?!"
Someone else said, "Our Comrade Wu still hasn't found a partner! If she hadn't interfered, Comrade Wu would have married Deputy Commander Cheng long ago!"
“······”
Hearing these words, Cheng Jingmo frowned.
No wonder Yu Xiangnian asked him those questions that night. So there is such a saying?
He didn't even know!
Yu Xiangnian curled her lips in satisfaction. She had been waiting for this moment.
Wait until public opinion swells to an explosion, wait until everyone is present, wait until everyone is eager to know the truth...
Yu Xiangnian raised his eyes, his gaze calm as he met Cheng Jingmo's. "Cheng Jingmo, there's a rumor circulating in the family compound. It's said that when you and Wu Xiaomin were dating, they were even discussing marriage, but my father, through some unknown means, forced you to marry me. It's the same reason why Wu Xiaomin hasn't found a partner yet!"
That’s all I have to say, no more.
For her own selfish desires, Wu Xiaomin even framed her own parents. Tonight she will fight back and let everyone know the truth.
She didn't expect Cheng Jingmo to come forward and tell the truth. After all, he and Wu Xiaomin had a relationship before. Even if they broke up now, he would definitely not expose Wu Xiaomin's lies in front of everyone and embarrass her.
She had already prepared for a counterattack, and she said this to Cheng Jingmo purely to inform the most important party: You can choose not to get involved and leave now!
After Yu Xiangnian finished speaking, he walked away and squeezed into the crowd.
When the family members saw her coming, they were so excited that they made a lot of noise.
Wang Hongxiang grabbed her hand and said, "Comrade Yu! Tell us whether Deputy Commander Cheng married you willingly."
Liu Zhen also grabbed her other hand. "Someone said that Deputy Head Cheng and Doctor Wu were getting married, and your father forced them to marry you! Is that true?"
