Chapter 19 Rumors (2/2)



The two children ate one according to Su Tao's method. The fresh and spicy taste spread in their mouths. It was so spicy that it made them water. After eating it, they came back with an endless aftertaste and wanted to have another one.

Su Tao watched with great interest the two children as they ate snails while breathing out air, their noses and saliva running from the spicy food, and they drank water guzzlingly. It was quite amusing.

As the sun sets, the sunset glows brilliantly like peach blossoms in the spring breeze.

Su Tao and Tiedan Erya went to the captain to hand in the task. The captain looked at her with a complicated expression. Su Tao asked in surprise, "What's wrong with Captain Wang?"

Captain Wang seemed to be hesitant to speak, and waved his hand, saying, "No!"

As Su Tao walked back to the temporary resettlement site for educated youth, she noticed that every now and then villagers would turn around to look at her, or stop in groups of three or four to whisper, "Is that her?"

"That's her!"

As Su Tao walked along, people stopped to point at her and said, "Look at her seductive face, it must be her, there's no doubt about it!"

"No way, she looks like a nice girl, why would she hook up with a guy?"

"I can't say anything, someone saw it."

Su Tao heard a lot vaguely, but he hadn't figured out the situation yet. He remained calm for the time being and continued walking towards the resettlement site for educated youth.

As soon as they walked into the resettlement site, they saw a figure flying and running towards them. "Oh no, Taotao, why did you come back just now? Now the word out is that you are shameless and are hooking up with men everywhere. The whole village has heard about it." Hu Xiao said nervously, pulling Su Tao.

"No wonder people were pointing at me on my way back just now." Su Tao pretended to be anxious and flustered, "What should I do?" In fact, he was secretly observing everyone's reactions.

Sun Chuanfang looked smug, covering his mouth and gloating, "Look, I said she was a vixen at first, but none of you believed me. Now you know, don't you?"

Shen Ziqian's face was so dark that it seemed like water was about to drip out of it. He felt that Su Tao seemed to be cheating on him.

He Xinyi quickly came out to explain and comfort him, "Taotao, don't worry. Even if you broke up with Shen Ziqian, you shouldn't just find another man. Were you bullied? Tell us and we'll help you."

He Xinyi seemed to be concerned, but she actually poured the dirty water on Su Tao, and continued to shift everyone's attention to Su Tao.

Su Tao sneered. She hadn't said anything yet. He Xinyi had already told her everything about men and bullying. Did she admit it?

Su Tao suddenly burst into tears and pleaded aggrievedly: "How can you say that to me! I didn't do anything? What wild man? I didn't bully anyone at all. How can I face people in the future~"

People were used to seeing her tough and confident appearance, but when they saw her pale face and tears in her eyes, like a pear blossom after being hit by rain, delicate and fragile, they immediately turned against her.

The other male educated youth all stood together and said in unison, "Taotao, we all believe in you!"

"Tell us if you have any grievances."

Su Tao wiped his tears, opened his red and swollen eyes, and said with a strong face: "I want to find out who is spreading rumors. I must not let him go."

"Yes! We can't let him go. Taotao, we will all go with you!" The educated youth were all indignant and supported him.

Su Tao secretly glanced at the crowd and saw a flash of panic in Sun Chuanfang's eyes before he quickly regained his composure. Meanwhile, a malicious glint flashed across He Xinyi's eyes, and despite her good disguise, Su Tao still caught on.

Don't let her find out that it's related to them, otherwise...
