Chapter 70: Caught in adultery? - The sickly young lady's daily routine of eating melons in the courtyard
Sure enough, the next day, apart from Zhou Qin and Qin Xianglian, everyone was talking about Jiang Yang hiding in the room as a shrunken turtle!
Just like Lin Qing, even though he was overwhelmed by the news of the recruitment at first and did not tell his family who were at work during the day about what happened in the hospital in the morning, he still talked about it with his family after he was a little more sober.
Jiang Yang was indeed as Lin Qing and Aunt Li had thought, Jiang Yang was completely famous!
When Cen Xi arrived at the research department's office, it was not yet time for work, but Xiao Yifan came over from his workstation.
"Engineer Cen, I heard that there was a lot of excitement in your courtyard yesterday?" His eyes sparkled with excitement!
Cen Xi had already deeply realized his hobby of gossiping since yesterday, so he didn't think it was strange that he came over so early in the morning. He even thought it was quite normal. The only difference was that in the past, it was other people that he gossiped about, not him.
Cen Xi nodded, "Yes!"
Xiao Yifan waited for him to continue speaking with a burning gaze. Cen Xi knew that he would not stop unless he heard the whole thing.
"Yesterday, after Zhou Qin returned home, he told Qin Xianglian strongly in the courtyard that he would definitely marry her. He even suggested a way to do it first and then report it later. He said that he would keep it a secret from his father and go get the marriage certificate first. After returning home, his father would have to accept it even if he didn't want to."
"How did he come up with this?" Xiao Yifan couldn't help but give a thumbs up to Zhou Qin's brain. You are willing to risk it all just to get the beauty!
"How should I know?"
Cen Xi briefly told him about the process in between, and then mentioned that Uncle Zhou came back and brought Zhou Qin the news of a blind date!
"He just gave up like that?" Xiao Yifan obviously had the same idea as Lin Qing at the beginning. They both felt that since Zhou Qin had gone to such lengths for Qin Xianglian, he would definitely marry her. Who could have imagined such a turn of events?
"Yes, he just gave up like that!" Cen Xi nodded.
Xiao Yifan thought he would fight to the end, but he didn't expect it to end like this.
After that, he asked about Jiang Yang again, "Is that turtle with a shrunk head also from your hospital?"
Cen Xi raised his eyebrows. He remembered what his wife said last night. "You know all this?"
"Alas, who in this machinery factory doesn't know about this?" Xiao Yifan said, waving his hand.
"Oh!" Cen Xi felt that Aunt Li and the others were one step closer to their dream of making Jiang Yang famous throughout the city.
Xiao Yifan looked around, then approached and asked in a low voice, "Is the man hiding in the room like a turtle really having sex with his wife in the room in broad daylight?"
Someone just happened to come into the office and overheard the two people's conversation, "Hey! What is Mr. Xiao gossiping about again? Tell us all about it! Don't be so petty!"
"Eh? Engineer Cen? You're actually looking for gossip about Engineer Cen?" His temperament seems to be inconsistent with his image!
"What's wrong? Everyone likes gossip. Is it strange that he has a curiosity about gossip?" Xiao Yifan said this not only to explain to Cen Xi, but also to himself.
"It's not strange, it's not strange, just a little surprised!" Then he didn't know what he thought of, and said with sudden enlightenment: "Oh, by the way, are you gossiping about the No. 4 courtyard in Guihua Lane?" He remembered that Engineer Cen had just moved there.
And there have been a lot of things happening in Courtyard No. 4 in recent days.
"You know that too?" Xiao Yifan and Cen Xi looked at him.
"I know, I know. My mother told me about the old bachelor Zhou Qin and the shrunken turtle Jiang Yang!"
Cen Xi and Xiao Yifan raised their eyebrows. Sure enough, it was another person who knew about it!
"Hey, are you guys talking about how Jiang Yang, the Shrunken Turtle, and his wife were caught having sex in broad daylight in the room by his ex-mother-in-law?"
Cen Xi twitched in pleasure. He never thought the rumor would spread like this!
"What do you mean by catching someone cheating? They are a legitimate couple!" Xiao Yifan retorted.
After a while, he shook his head again and said, "No, what do you mean by catching someone having an affair? Where did you catch someone having an affair? It's just a daytime affair, isn't it?"
"No, I just got caught cheating. That's what I heard them say."
Xiao Yifan was also firm in his statement, "It's impossible, they were just having sex in broad daylight, there's no mention of catching them having sex."
"How can this be wrong? My mother told me all this, and I heard it from her sisters!"
"I heard it from my wife. She met an old lady at work and they were chatting."
The two of them started arguing right in front of Cen Xi. Cen Xi looked at this one and then that one and thought, really, what's the point of arguing about this kind of thing? Why not just come and ask him directly?
Perhaps they heard his thoughts, and they regained some of their senses. They suddenly remembered that the person next to them was from that yard. They looked at each other and then turned around and looked straight at Cen Xi: "Engineer Cen, you are from that yard, right? Tell me, who is telling the truth?"
Cen Xi looked at their burning eyes, raised his hand to fix the frame of his glasses, and then said: "My wife watched the whole process at that time, and I can tell you for sure that the ex-mother-in-law did not catch them cheating. No, that's not right. Just like what Xiao Gong said, they are husband and wife, and there is no such thing as catching them cheating. It's just that they hid in the room like turtles and didn't come out, and they were doing that in the room, so the noise was heard."
"Really? Is that really the case? Didn't they really catch the adultery?"
"No, really not. At that time, Jiang Yang was the only grown man in the courtyard. Others were at work or school, and he was the only one there. But when his ex-mother-in-law came over with a few strong men, he just huddled in the room like a turtle, leaving his mother to deal with it alone." Cen Xi used objective facts to promote him again.
"Tsk, is he still a man?" Xiao Yifan and his colleague couldn't help but spit.
"I heard that it was his sister-in-law who came out with a kitchen knife and scared the guy away!"
"Yeah." Cen Xi nodded.
"You're not a man!" How irresponsible.
As men, they should be ashamed of having such a man!
"Okay, okay, it's time to go to work. Let's talk about gossip when we have time!" Cen Xi was in a calm mood. After chatting about gossip, he urged them to go to work!
"Oh, why are you so boring?" Xiao Yifan teased. This guy is such a killjoy, always pouring cold water on him when he's in high spirits!
Another colleague nodded in agreement.
Cen Xi didn't waste time talking to them. "Our next stage of research is about to begin. Let's go back and get ready!"
"Oh, I got it, I got it, let's go right away!" Xiao Yifan knew that Cen Xi was indirectly reminding him that the next stage of research would begin today, so he could prepare the materials first.
