Chapter 51 Being reported (Updated)

The next morning, Yuan Xiao went to the No. 1 County Middle School with Gu Lanting.

Although there is no college entrance examination now, the No. 1 County Middle School still insists on learning.

High school students who come out of the No. 1 County Middle School are also workers that major factories are vying for.

Principal Chen of the No. 1 County Middle School is a shrewd person, but he is also a fence-sitter, and he will lean towards whichever direction the wind blows. .

During the conversation between Principal Chen and Yuan Xiao, he looked at Gu Lanting several times, and Yuan Xiao could see that he was still more afraid of Gu Lanting.

In addition, the tea that Yuan Xiao sent was more to his liking, so the matter went smoothly.

They agreed to take the exam at the end of the month. When Yuan Xiao walked out of the school gate, she felt much more cheerful.

Gu Lanting rarely saw her lively, and there was a hint of smile in her eyes.

"It's noon now. I'll take you to the hotel for lunch."

Yuan Xiao looked at her watch and it was already past eleven o'clock.

Her watch was second-hand. There were not many watches in the department store, and you needed a ticket, so it was a hard-to-buy item.

Zhao Fubing had been eyeing this watch for a long time and it took him a lot of effort to buy it.

"Let me treat you to a meal. It's my way of thanking you for introducing me to Principal Chen."

Gu Lanting felt that the distance between him and Yuan Xiao had shortened. "It's your credit. Principal Chen likes your tea, not because of my face."

The two walked to the state-owned hotel. Gu Lanting was not picky, so Yuan Xiao ordered the dishes by herself.

In fact, this was Yuan Xiao's first time eating in a state-owned hotel.

She ordered an eggplant with beans, steamed fish, a beef, and soup.

State-owned hotels are better than ordinary hotels, with plenty of oil and water, but the chef's skills are average and a little crude.

Yuan Xiao is not a picky eater, and he will make himself full even if the taste is not good.

On the contrary, it was Gu Lanting who frowned and said, "It's not as delicious as yours."

The burly man, who was almost 1.9 meters tall, always had a cold face, but now he frowned and said it was not delicious, with a hint of childish grievance in his eyes.

Yuan Xiao felt very incongruous and smiled, "I'll cook it for you next time."

"Okay!" Gu Lanting agreed immediately.

Yuan Xiao's words were polite, but in Gu Lanting's ears, they sounded like a pass to eat for free.

After a meal, Yuan Xiao herself didn't realize that she had forgotten that Gu Lanting was the male protagonist in the book, and the distance between the two of them was unconsciously shortened a lot.

After dinner, Gu Lanting sent Yuan Xiao home. Before they got home, they heard the crying and shouting coming from Yuan Xiao's small courtyard.

Yuan Xiao was stunned for a moment, then ran away.

There were several people standing at the door. The old lady was pushed to the ground. Wang Yazhi was holding her up, while Yang Zhen and Zhong Li were holding her back. The two little brats were crying out loud.

The leader was still shouting, "I won't make things difficult for you, the old, the weak, the women and the children

. Hand over Yuan Xiao, and we'll leave now!" The single dog jumped out at this time, "I'm sorry, host. This system didn't notice it for a moment! It was Cheng Feng. She went to the office to report you for speculation."

Yuan Xiao looked cold and scolded, "I am Yuan Xiao!"

A big man walked to the leader and said, "Captain Liu, yes, it's the same as the woman described."

Captain Liu squinted at Yuan Xiao, with greedy desires in his eyes.

I didn't expect this woman to be so pretty!

He straightened his greasy collar and cleared his throat, "Someone has reported you for speculation, come with us!"

Yuan Xiao ignored him and walked over. The old lady's face was pale and she was sweating. She must have broken a bone in the fall.

She turned her head, her eyes red, "Gu Lanting, help me send my grandma to the hospital. She must have a bone injury."

Upon hearing this, Captain Liu yelled, "Go to what hospital! Someone reported you for speculation and profiteering, we are here to arrest people!"

Gu Lanting swept his indifferent eyes over him, his heavy aura pressed down on him, and asked in a cold voice, "Where is the evidence?"

Captain Liu was frightened, but with so many of his men watching, he couldn't be scared, and said with all his might, "We are arresting people in the office, we don't need evidence!"

Gu Lanting didn't waste time talking to him, loaded the gun with a click, and put it against his forehead.

He raised his eyebrows, his expression nonchalant, "Let me ask you one more question, where is the evidence?"

Captain Liu has been rampant in the office for so many years, he is used to being a gangster, how could he encounter such a troublemaker!

The cold muzzle of the gun was against his forehead, and he was almost scared to piss his pants.

"No, no evidence!"

Gu Lanting pushed the gun forward, "Then are you still arresting people?"

Captain Liu's legs softened and he sat on the ground, "No, it's not me! I am just following orders. Someone reported it, so we came!"

Gu Lanting's expression was indifferent, "If you have any questions, go to the Public Security Bureau to find me, Gu Lanting! Now, get out!"

Captain Liu didn't dare to confront him, and was dragged away by his two subordinates.

The old lady couldn't be moved now, so Gu Lanting found a wooden board and several people carried her to the hospital.

The old lady's bones were fragile and she couldn't stand a fall.

This fall fractured her femur and it would take at least a year or two to recover.

Gu Lanting accompanied Yuan Xiao to run around, handle the hospitalization procedures and pay the fees, and she was never idle.

Yuan Xiao hadn't said a word since he entered the hospital.

She blamed herself, and couldn't help but be angry with Gu Lanting, and hated Cheng Feng.

For a moment, she was in a complicated mood. She was afraid that she would blame Gu Lanting as soon as she opened her mouth. He was innocent...

Gu Lanting just thought that she was worried about her grandmother, so she comforted her: "Fortunately, nothing serious happened. Just take some time to recover and it will be fine."

Yuan Xiao looked at him with resentment. Why did he have to be the male lead?

She couldn't help but feel entangled in her heart again.

Cheng Feng seemed to be biting her, on the one hand because of Gu Lanting, on the other hand because Yuan Xiao was a side character that she couldn't conquer.

Gu Lanting was stunned. Did he do something wrong?

"Do you know... who reported you?" Gu Lanting asked tentatively.

Yuan Xiao hung his head, "It was Cheng Feng."

Gu Lanting frowned, it was Cheng Feng again.

"She seems to be very hostile to you?"

Yuan Xiao pulled his hair and glanced at him, "You just found out?"

Gu Lanting was puzzled, "Why?" Yuan Xiao's

eyes widened, "Because she likes you!"

"Don't talk nonsense!" Gu Lanting reflexively scolded in a low voice.

It's not that he was worried about affecting Cheng Feng's reputation, he didn't want to leave the impression that he had a relationship with Cheng Feng in Yuan Xiao's mind.

What's more, he didn't even have an impression of what Cheng Feng looked like.

Yuan Xiao rolled his eyes. Cheng Feng was also a failure. The main character was like this. No wonder she could only focus on the side characters.

Gu Lanting thought for a while and said, "Xiaoxiao--"

Yuan Xiao glared, "Who allowed you to call me Xiaoxiao!"

Gu Lanting automatically ignored this sentence and continued, "I am a soldier and I like to be consistent in doing things."

Not only to the country, but also to you.

Yuan Xiao pursed her lips and turned her face away from him.

She was afraid that if she looked at him, the corners of her mouth would rise uncontrollably.
