Chapter 19 Even when gay men are drunk, they should protect themselves
Outside, Meng Qingwei, with a sullen face and a tight lip line, shouted in a deep voice, "That's enough! Everyone go back to bed. If there's anything, we'll talk about it tomorrow!"
He patted Xue Huaizhou's shoulder with his heavy hand and said, "Go back and rest. Don't think too much."
A few male educated youth looked at Xue Huaizhou with condemnation.
When they went to the captain's house to find him, the captain, staggering with a kerosene lamp in his hand and reeking of alcohol, opened the door for them in a drunken state.
"Who is it?" The captain asked with a burp as the door opened.
Meng Qingwei and several other male educated youth were about to speak.
"ah!!!!"
A scream pierced the silent night sky.
The captain's expression suddenly changed. He turned back to the room, opened the door, and looked in the direction of the dim light in the captain's hand...
They saw Xue Huaizhou and the captain's daughter Zhang Mingzhu lying together.
The scream came from Zhang Mingzhu's mouth.
She grabbed the corner of the quilt, climbed up, took a few steps back and shrank into the corner. She glanced at Xue Huaizhou, who was lying on her bed, his eyebrows furrowed in a heroic manner, his handsome face flushed, and trembling, not yet fully awake.
Everyone in the room changed their expressions in an instant.
Xue Huaizhou's handsome sword-like eyebrows were slightly frowned. He had a splitting headache after being woken up by a hangover. He rubbed his eyebrows and got up, still confused and unable to focus his eyes.
"What...happened?"
"You still have the nerve to ask what happened!" One of the male educated youth lost his temper and shouted angrily.
Xue Huaizhou, with his mind in a mess, reacted a little slowly. He slowly raised his head and looked around. This look scared him to death.
What's going on?
Where is he?
The captain was almost sober now, his expression was cold, he looked at the stunned Xue Huaizhou and sneered, "Why are you in Mingzhu House?"
Yes, why was he in Zhang Mingzhu's house?
Xue Huaizhou himself was also confused.
He remembered that he drank a few cups of rice wine, and then, he fell asleep.
The captain continued, "I saw you were drunk and too lazy to bother, so I kindly helped you to sleep on the sofa. Why did you end up in Mingzhu's room?"
Xue Huaizhou's heart sank to the bottom, his face was so dark that it seemed like water was about to drip out. He secretly looked at his clothes, and found that they were still neatly worn, so he breathed a sigh of relief.
I just slept in the wrong room, nothing happened.
He looked at the captain and carefully considered his excuse, "This... is a misunderstanding... nothing happened between us."
He quickly glanced at Zhang Mingzhu who was huddled in the corner. The top button of her clothes was buttoned up fine, and nothing was wrong.
The captain interrupted with a sneer, "If something really happened, do you think you would still be able to sit here and talk?"
Zhang Mingzhu sobbed softly.
Meng Qingwei and the other educated youth didn't dare to breathe.
The captain couldn't bear to hear his daughter cry. He was furious and veins on his forehead were throbbing.
His eyes were like knives, piercing Xue Huaizhou coldly and heavily. He seemed to have considered for a long time, and told Xue Huaizhou word by word without letting him refuse, "I'll find someone to calculate a good day and arrange a wedding for you!"
After saying this, his face was filled with indescribable annoyance.
Xue Huaizhou was shocked and stood up in astonishment. "No! I can't marry your daughter. I already have a fiancée. Nothing happened between us. Why do you want to do this?"
After hearing his refusal, Zhang Mingzhu raised her head and secretly glanced at his handsome eyebrows and the cold jawline on his profile. Her nose felt sore and tears couldn't stop falling.
Even after all this, he still doesn't want to marry her?
The captain's eyelids twitched with anger, but he suppressed his rage and asked, "Do you think the reputation of female comrades is unimportant?"
Everyone understands what is left unsaid.
So many pairs of eyes saw the two of them sleeping in the same bed. There is no impenetrable wall in the world. If Zhang Mingzhu marries someone else in the future, no matter who she marries, everyone will inevitably feel uncomfortable.
The best thing would be to let Xue Huaizhou marry her.
The team leader looked at Xue Huaizhou carefully. The young man was tall and had long legs, thick eyebrows, big eyes and a high nose bridge. He was not lazy or slacking off at work, so he was not unworthy of his daughter.
"Okay, it's settled. It's too late. I won't keep you here. Go back! I'll choose a day and let you know!" The captain waved his hand tiredly and began to drive people away.
Meng Qingwei quickly gave a wink to another educated youth and forcibly helped Xue Huaizhou away, who still wanted to argue.
"No! I can't marry her!"
Meng Qingwei quickly covered his mouth and whispered, "Do you want everyone to know about this?"
Xue Huaizhou woke up instantly.
If this matter gets out of hand, there will be no room for recovery.
Back at the Youth League Home, Xue Huaizhou tried hard to defend himself and argued with reason, trying to make other male educated youth understand him and support him in rejecting the marriage proposal from the team leader's family.
"As long as we don't tell anyone, who will know what happened tonight? You promise me that you will forget about what happened tonight and keep it a secret. As long as there are no rumors about us outside, I can naturally convince the captain to change his mind!"
One of the young intellectuals, not knowing if it was intentional, suddenly raised his voice, sneered and said sourly, "Come on, how is Zhang Mingzhu unworthy of you? She's pretty, a beautiful girl from a small family. Why are you unhappy?"
The other male educated youth also felt that he was ungrateful.
In this situation, the captain didn't arrest him and said he was a hooligan, which was already giving him face.
Why is he being so pretentious?
Besides, so what if he has a fiancée?
The man is unmarried and the woman is unmarried.
He has gone to the countryside and his return date is uncertain. It is not certain whether his fiancée in the city will wait for him!
He is a man, it doesn't matter who he marries.
What harm can he suffer?
With this in mind, everyone came to persuade him to just go with the flow and think positively. The team leader was powerful in the village, so what was wrong with having him as his son-in-law?
Moreover, Zhang Mingzhu is the captain's only daughter.
For a moment, the other male educated youth looked at Xue Huaizhou with only envy in their eyes.
Everyone was beginning to doubt whether what happened tonight was directed and acted out by him.
"Don't be so ungrateful, kid!"
"That's right! If the captain is willing, I can marry Zhang Mingzhu for you!"
The night was dark, but the Youth League Institute was still bustling with activity.
Meng Qingwei had to stop them and send them to bed.
Everything is quiet.
Xue Huaizhou, lying on the hardwood bed with his arms as a pillow, felt more and more that something was wrong. He was drunk, so why would he run around?
Besides, when Zhang Mingzhu sleeps, doesn’t she lock the door of her room?
The more he thought about it, the harder it was to sleep.
He sneered.
He must have been plotted against by the captain and his daughter!
He can't marry Zhang Mingzhu!
Xue Huaizhou couldn't sleep, so he got up, walked out of the yard, moved a bench and sat down, looking at the moon and worrying.
He didn't know how long it had been before he heard a slight sound of footsteps. Just as he was about to stand up to check, he saw something thrown in from outside the wall.
He looked closely and saw a half-dead rabbit and a equally half-dead pheasant.
Xue Huaizhou: “……?”
