Xia Lanbenlan, however, remained calm and tidied up all her belongings.
"Comrades, focus on your work and don't worry about me."
"I'll be fine."
Xia Lan's nonchalant attitude made Li Liang and the others even more confused.
However, they didn't have a good solution.
"We really don't want you to leave..."
Are you really leaving?
"Isn't there any other way? We don't know anything yet..."
Looking at Xia Lan, everyone's eyes reddened.
"All good things must come to an end. Let this be a farewell!"
Xia Lan smiled at them, then walked out with her things in her arms.
His carefree demeanor left everyone speechless.
Xia Lan walked out of the mall and hadn't gone more than a few steps when she heard Qin Yu's voice.
"daughter in law."
How did you get here?
Xia Lan turned around in surprise and saw Qin Yu standing at the door, leaning against the wall waiting for her.
"I knew you wouldn't have a peaceful day..."
After Qin Yu went out for a walk, he heard many versions of the story, but without exception, they were all unfriendly to Xia Lan.
So Qin Yu simply stood at the entrance of Xia Lan's workplace and waited. Sure enough, he heard Xia Lan making some unpleasant remarks.
A moment later, Xia Lan appeared carrying some things.
"I guessed it too, but I didn't know they would be in such a hurry."
Xia Lan had some idea of what was going on, but she didn't expect things to move so quickly.
"Shall we go back?"
Qin Yu took the things and led Xia Lan home.
"I already had the newspaper publish the article this morning, it will take two days."
Xia Lan said to Qin Yu.
Qin Yu nodded.
“I know you can handle it.”
Qin Yu wasn't worried at all. Xia Lan certainly wouldn't sit idly by in this situation; they had already discussed many solutions last night.
Therefore, it's only a matter of time before Xia Lan turns the tables.
"My wife is the best."
"This little thing is no problem for you."
Qin Yu smiled confidently.
Xia Lan's slightly depressed mood immediately dissipated after hearing Qin Yu's words.
"Hehe, my brother Yu really understands me!"
Xia Lan secretly kissed Qin Yu, and was delighted.
She ignored their questions.
But Qin Yu's unconditional trust in her made her happier than anything else.
"That's right."
"Don't you even know whose man I am?"
Qin Yu chuckled.
The two walked home hand in hand. As soon as they entered the door, Xiao Yuqin ran over with heartache and hugged Xia Lan.
"These people are really going too far! How could they treat you like this!"
Xiao Yuqin was heartbroken. She had just received a call from her father and learned that Xia Lan had been expelled.
"Mom, I'm fine."
"The innocent will always be innocent. Some things are not about who speaks first and who is right."
Xia Lan patted Xiao Yuqin on the shoulder and comforted her.
The stronger the public opinion is now, the more effective her clarification will be. In the end, Du Juan will experience what she went through.
"Let's go inside! Old Du is so worried about you, he's been blaming himself and hasn't even eaten."
Xiao Yuqin said to Xia Lan, "After Du Wenqing learned about Xia Lan's situation, the thing he was most worried about still happened."
He regretted his decision and was too ashamed to face Xia Lan.
When Xia Lan entered the room, she saw Du Wenqing looking dejected.
"grandfather."
Xia Lan shouted at Du Wenqing.
"Eh."
Du Wenqing was startled by the sudden shout. When he looked up, he saw Xia Lan and Qin Yu carrying a box behind her...
Upon seeing what Qin Yu was holding, Du Wenqing instantly guessed...
"Is it because of me... that you were..."
Du Wenqing slapped himself hard.
"Smack."
Everyone was startled by Du Wenqing's actions.
Xia Lan quickly ran over, grabbed Du Wenqing's hand, and prevented him from hitting her again.
"Hey! What are you doing!"
Xiao Yuqin panicked and rushed over.
"I'm sorry..."
Du Wenqing lowered his head.
"I'm the one who dragged you into this. I shouldn't have dragged you down with me."
Qin Yu slowly walked up to Du Wenqing.
"What did you promise me back then?"
Qin Yu stared intently at Du Wenqing.
Du Wenqing was taken aback and slowly looked up.
"What did you say when we had nothing?"
Qin Yu asked again.
"I'll take care of you..."
Du Wenqing pursed his lips. Back then, Qin Yu and Xia Lan had nothing, and he had made a promise...
"Now it's our turn to take care of you, what's wrong with that?"
Qin Yu said calmly.
"Even if you weren't Old Master Du, we would still take care of you in your old age. We think we've already reached an agreement on that, right?"
"……yes."
Du Wenqing knew this; Qin Yu and Xia Lan had mentioned it more than once.
What they cared about was never his post-rehabilitation status; they only cared about him as a person.
Even before he was exonerated, their attitude towards him remained unchanged.
It was the same before, and it is the same now.
"Even if you give all those things to Du Juan, what good will it do?"
Qin Yu smiled faintly.
"Do you think we'll just abandon you?"
Du Wenqing was taken aback.
Xia Lan smiled slightly.
"Have you forgotten that you promised us you would teach the children from now on? You think you can get rid of us? No way."
"Tuantuan and Yuanyuan call you Great-Grandpa!"
Xia Lan smiled at Du Wenqing.
"You are Qin Yu's master and my godfather. Wasn't this an established relationship?"
