Chapter 358: The Angry Warlords of the Republic of China vs. the Educated and Well-mannered Overseas Daughter 14
Xu Danbin.
The first time Quan Jiu heard this name was from Kong Manqing.
She took the flyer and walked through the crowd towards the target person. When the other person saw her, he was stunned for a second, but then looked shocked.
"It's you?!!"
Quan Jiu looked at the young man in front of him and nodded:
"It's been a while, but I'm surprised you're not dead."
Old men really love to lie.
Xu Danbin also had a thick stack of leaflets in his hand. There were four or five men and women standing around him, all surrounding him. It seemed that his status in this group was not low, and he even occupied a dominant position.
"Miss, I'm very sorry for what happened in the Pear Garden that day."
Xu Danbin looked apologetic.
He later tried to find Quan Jiu, but he had no power and influence, and had no idea who the woman he accidentally shot that day was. It was only under his strong request that Si Jinnian finally told him that the woman was not dead.
Quan Jiu was also surprised. The person standing in front of her was the "assassin" who had been hiding in the closet that day and who had been discovered and was about to assassinate Si Jinnian, but accidentally hit her.
Si Jinnian told her that he had killed the man, but Xu Danbin was standing here now, full of energy and breathing steadily.
"Third Master didn't do anything to you, did he?"
She spoke tentatively.
Seeing Si Jinnian's high-profile search that day, she originally thought that Xu Danbin was a vicious criminal, but unexpectedly, Kong Manqing told her that Xu Danbin was just an ordinary student.
The reason he was arrested was because he initiated a march that seriously disrupted the order in Jincheng.
When Xu Danbin thought of Si Jinnian, his expression became somewhat complicated.
He and Si Jinnian were on opposite sides, so he never thought that he would let him go.
"Speaking of this makes me angry. Si Jinnian is nothing but a lackey of evil forces. Why did he detain Dan Bin for half a month?"
Before Xu Danbin could speak, the classmates around him were filled with indignation.
"That is, as the commander, he abused his power and completely disregarded our opinions."
“………”
Quan Jiu looked at Xu Danbin and smiled.
"Do you think so too?"
Xu Danbin looked a little embarrassed, and his feelings towards Si Jinnian were somewhat complicated.
He deserved to die, and according to his "crimes", it was not excessive for him to be executed.
But Si Jinnian finally let him go.
Xu Danbin thought about it seriously and said:
"No matter what, I will never be able to agree with him."
Quan Jiu's tone was somewhat sarcastic:
"You all know what the current domestic situation is like. If it weren't for Si Jinnian, would you still be able to live a peaceful life in Jincheng? Why are you distributing all kinds of leaflets slandering Si Jinnian?"
She dared to say that Jincheng is now definitely the most stable and safest city in the country.
Xu Danbin blushed, feeling a little embarrassed by her sharp words. He was not the kind of person who would confuse right and wrong. Finally, he said in a complicated tone:
"Si Jinnian may want to be a good person, but this era does not allow him to be a good person."
Si Jinnian did not kill innocent people indiscriminately. He let him go, which also showed his attitude.
He suppressed the march only for the sake of the overall situation, which does not mean that the behavior of this group of students was wrong.
Quan Jiu folded the flyer and stuffed it into his arms:
"Since he was in that position, he was doomed to be helpless. Si Jinnian is definitely not a good person, but he is definitely not the villain you are talking about."
Without waiting for Xu Danbin to speak again, she turned and left, leaving the students with a tall and slender figure.
………
In the private room separated by a wall, Quan Jiu's firm words came softly through the paper window.
There was a large round dining table, with Si Jinnian sitting at the main seat, smoking a cigarette. In front of him sat several men in military uniforms, who were obviously discussing important matters at the table.
The others were not familiar with Quan Jiu's voice, but they could understand the three words "Si Jinnian". One of them jokingly said:
"How strange! I didn't expect that our ruthless Third Master Si actually has staunch supporters."
Si Jinnian lowered his eyes and stared at the leftover dishes on the table, his eyes unclear.
He doesn't care how the world judges him, so when he is not understood, he doesn't bother to explain. It is enough for him to be true to himself. As for other people, what does it have to do with him?
Being able to protect the people of this city in troubled times is already his limit.
"This little girl is quite sensible. She's much better than those poor students who only know how to shout slogans and talk big."
"That's right. The peace and prosperity of Jincheng is entirely due to Third Master's resourcefulness. During the battle last month, Third Master was shot and had to endure three days and three nights of emergency treatment before the doctors finally brought him back from the brink of death..."
Si Jinnian listened to everyone's angry or flattering praises with a calm expression on his face.
To be honest, he didn't know how many of these people were speaking the truth, nor did he want to know. They were just saying some polite words. Maybe tomorrow, the people saying these polite words would stab him in the back and reveal their hideous and ugly true faces.
He flicked the cigarette handle with his fingertips, and flickering sparks flashed in the box. The man's eyelashes were unusually long, several inches longer than many women's, so when he lowered his eyes, his eye sockets always reflected a silhouette.
Si Jinnian recalled what Quan Jiu had just said, and his eyelashes drooped a little more.
This woman clearly didn't praise him at all, and even said he wasn't a good person. Her words weren't as pleasant to the people in the box, but why did he just feel...
Sounds so happy?
………
Quan Jiu had no idea that she was being eavesdropped. As she sat at the dining table, having dinner alone, she was stunned for a few seconds when she saw Si Jinnian, who had come home early, a rare occasion.
Si Jinnian looked at the obvious surprise on her face and couldn't help but find it a little funny.
"Why, you don't recognize me after just a few days?"
Quan Jiu stood up from his chair and came to the door to greet him:
"Why didn't you tell me you were coming back?"
Si Jinnian smelled the fragrance of food in the house and looked at the little woman in sky blue silk pajamas who took the initiative to go out to greet him. Somewhere in his chest moved slightly.
Two people in one house, three meals a day.
It really fits the situation at this moment.
Si Jinnian: "I didn't plan to come back."
He has been really busy recently and had not planned to come back. But when he passed by the Commander's Mansion just now, seeing the lights on in the living room, he inexplicably recalled what he heard this morning. With an idea in his mind, he asked the driver to change the destination.
Quan Jiu saw him take off his coat, took his clothes and hung them up in the hallway.
It was this small action that made Si Jinnian stunned again.
She didn't lose her temper at this time, but instead acted like a virtuous wife waiting for her husband to come home.
