Without even a second thought, their every move in the village will become even more difficult from now on.
After seeing the two of them clearly, Zhao Zhiyi had the same thought, but he was much more rational than Huang Ying.
"Captain, look at this..."
Seeing the reactions of the two leaders of the educated youth settlement, what else did Wang Fulin not understand?
He forcefully suppressed the urge to curse and addressed the villagers he had brought:
"Alright, everyone, you've all worked hard tonight. Go home and rest early, don't worry your families."
Listen up, watch your mouth. If you want the team to be selected as an advanced worker smoothly, you can't say a single word you shouldn't. Do you understand?
There was a brief moment of silence before everyone eagerly began to speak.
"We know, we know, don't worry, everyone. We know what's important."
"Yes, yes, the team's honor is the most important thing. We understand. We didn't see anything tonight..."
“That’s right, we’ll head back first, Captain…”
Only after the crowd had dispersed, leaving only a few people from the educated youth settlement, did the brigade leader rub his temples, feeling a headache coming on.
He knew that his words wouldn't stop the news from spreading; if it didn't, most of the villagers would know by tomorrow.
He only asked that the matter not spread outside the village.
He had some confidence in the villagers' sense of collective honor, but he couldn't be entirely sure that it wouldn't spread.
Because there are no secrets that stay hidden forever.
After thinking for a while, he sighed and decided to deal with the immediate problem first and deal with the rest later.
"Zhao Zhiqing, go and wake them up. What kind of behavior is this? It's really... Never mind, just wake them up first!"
Zhao Zhiyi stepped forward without hesitation, but no matter how he called out, the two people who were just holding each other showed no signs of waking up.
Left with no other choice, he pinched Shi Qiang's philtrum tightly with his thumbnail.
Zhu Qing was so happy to see this scene, but deep down she really hoped that Shi Qiang would wake up. Otherwise, anyone could tell that there was something fishy going on between them lying there.
Whether they were supposed to be awake or Zhao Zhiyi used enough force, Shi Qiang was actually woken up by being pinched.
"Ouch! That hurts!"
Hearing his cries of pain, Wang Fulin was furious.
"Ouch! You fucking know what pain is?! Don't you know it's cold?"
When Zhao Zhiyi saw that the man was awake, he immediately stepped aside to make room for Wang Fulin.
At this moment, Shi Qiang, who had just woken up, finally realized his situation.
"This, this is... Captain, what are you doing here?"
Wang Fulin laughed in anger and couldn't help but kick him.
"How did I get here? I haven't even asked you how you got here yet! What's going on? Do I have a grudge against you guys?"
Shi Qiang immediately tried to explain, but quickly shut his mouth in embarrassment.
He was also somewhat at a loss about their current situation.
He himself didn't know how the two of them ended up lying there.
You can't exactly say they conspired to steal something and then inexplicably ended up lying together, can you?
Seeing his dazed and confused expression, Wang Fulin became even angrier.
"You... tell me, what exactly happened?!"
Shi Qiang genuinely didn't know either, looking conflicted as he hugged his trembling body, utterly innocent.
"I...I don't know either, we..."
