Chapter 621 begins spreading rumors.
His tone was unpleasant. Lin Ping, who was standing next to him, didn't want to say anything at first, but seeing this, he pressed Lu Jiangting against a nearby telephone pole and said angrily, "Lu Jiangting, why are you being so fierce? You scared my sister."
Lu Jiangting was taken aback, took a deep breath, and calmed himself down.
"Yuyao, I'm sorry, I didn't mean anything by it, and I'm not blaming you..."
"You're blaming me." Lin Yuyao said coldly, "You green-haired bastard, you don't dare to blame Fang Qing, you don't dare to cause trouble for Wang Jianguo, you only dare to come to me."
Lu Jiangting: "..."
"Hmph, they're the ones who shamelessly hurt Wang Chenchen, and instead of going after them, you come after me. What? Do you think I'm easy to bully?"
"No, I didn't mean to bully you."
"If you had just agreed, I would have respected you a bit. But you're not only a green-haired bastard, you're also a coward. You dare to do it but don't dare to admit it."
Lu Jiangting looked at her with a hurt expression and argued, "Yuyao, you've really misunderstood me. I know it's not your fault, why would I blame you?"
"Then please don't show your face in front of me again. I'm ashamed."
"Lin Ping, let's go."
Lin Ping then let go, and before leaving, he spat at Lu Jiangting.
"Pah, you bully who picks on the weak and fears the strong. Every wrong has its perpetrator, and every debt has its debtor. Wang Chenchen has had a tough time, so he should make amends. Don't bother my sister."
Lu Jiangting watched them leave with red eyes.
He was really wronged. He really didn't mean to cause her any trouble. Did Yuyao hate him that much?
Li Wenwen walked over slowly, looking at him cautiously.
"Brother Jiang Ting, is she your fiancée whom you broke off the engagement with?"
Lu Jiangting remained silent, which was taken as tacit agreement.
"Her belly is so big, she must have been married for a long time, right? Do you... still like her?"
"Yes." He admitted it so readily, almost as if he had given up entirely.
Li Wenwen: "Why? She's so mean to you."
Lu Jiangting gave a bitter smile and said, "I've always liked her, and I was the one who wronged her back then. Wenwen, I'm sorry, I'm a terrible person, you'd better not be with me anymore."
……
Lu Jiangting's appearance was just a minor episode; judging from his颓废 (颓废 is a difficult word to translate directly, but it implies a state of listlessness, apathy, and a lack of motivation) zombie-like appearance, he seemed destined to go insane sooner or later.
Lin Yuyao specifically instructed Lin Ping not to tell Fu Huaiyi, so as to avoid further conflict.
That evening, Lin Yuyao complained to Fu Huaiyi that Lin Pingxin was a bit wild and probably not suitable for their line of work.
Fu Huaiyi asked her, "So why did he choose to go into this line of work in the first place?"
“Back in my hometown, we didn’t have a TV, and we couldn’t afford to buy newspapers, so our horizons were limited to the surrounding villages. Lu Jiangting was a role model for the surrounding villages back then. Everyone said he was so good, so Lin Ping thought he should be like him and take the entrance exam for this school.”
She paused for a moment, then said, "There was another reason. Some old ladies in the village said I wasn't good enough for Lu Jiangting. They said he was a college student and that he would be great in the future. Lin Ping got very angry when he heard this and studied hard, saying he wanted to be like Lu Jiangting and that he would support me."
Lin Yuyao was already quite calm when these matters were brought up again.
Fu Huaiyi will no longer be jealous.
As it is now, Lu Jiangting is no longer worthy of being his opponent.
"So, he applied to this school because of his limited perspective and a strong sense of determination?"
"Yes."
"Oh, if that's the case, then this is troublesome."
Lin Yuyao: “…”
“You’ve made something of yourself now, you don’t need him as a backer anymore. And his vision is far broader now than before. Having seen big money, he naturally looks down on our meager salaries.”
Lin Yuyao: "Then why do you find him attractive?"
“I’m different. I’ve seen a lot of money. Money is just a pile of paper to me. I only have one mouth, how much can I eat? Anyway, I can’t spend it all. Whether I earn two hundred or twenty thousand, it’s the same.”
This……
Fu Huaiyi smiled and said, "So what I'm pursuing now is spiritual fulfillment."
Lin Yuyao suddenly realized, "So when people have so much money that it's practically worthless, they start pursuing spiritual fulfillment?"
Fu Huaiyi nodded. "Some people are like that, it's hard to say. Everyone is different, I don't know what Lin Ping thinks."
"Then what do you suggest we do?"
"Why do you care about him? He's an adult, and it's his freedom to choose whatever he wants. If you choose for him, he might blame you if things don't go well in the future."
"I'm afraid he'll make the wrong choice and regret it later."
"Regret is his decision. If you really care about him, you should be prepared to cover for his wrong choice."
Lin Yuyao: "If he has no money, I can still bail him out. But if he loses his brain, I can't bail him out."
Fu Huaiyi smiled and said, "Yes, in our line of work, if you regret it ten years later, there won't be a second chance."
Lin Yuyao: "You should see him off tomorrow."
"to make."
The next day was a day off, so Fu Huaiyi drove Lin Ping back to school.
After getting off the bus, Fu Huaiyi started talking to him about his choices right at the school gate.
He spoke very directly.
“If a family like ours doesn’t have money, your older siblings can help you out. But if you regret it in the future and want to join the research group, no amount of money from them will help.”
He patted Lin Ping on the shoulder and said, "You're an adult. I hope you think it through and figure out what you really want."
Lin Ping thought for a moment and nodded. "I will consider it carefully."
……
Wang Jianguo: "I found out that Li Wenwen is a teacher at Liyang Elementary School."
Fang Qing stumbled. "A teacher?"
“Yes.” Wang Jianguo smiled maliciously. “I must say, they’re quite a good match for Lu Jiangting. They’re probably going to get together.”
Fang Qing clenched her fists in anger and said coldly, "Don't even think about it."
Wang Jianguo looked at her with great interest. "What's the use of your anger? They're getting married, what can you do to stop them?"
"I..." Fang Qing gritted her teeth and said, "You have to help me, no, you have to help Chenchen."
"Of course, Chenchen is my eldest son. I haven't done anything for him in all his years, so it's only right that I help him."
"Okay, find a way to spread rumors at school that Li Wenwen stole someone else's man."
Wang Jianguo's expression changed. "Will this work? Last time you spread rumors about Sister Lin, she reported you to the police station."
"Are you stupid? You could spend a little money to have someone else spread it, or at least not spread it in front of her."
Wang Jianguo: "So you're stupid, you told Sister Lin this in front of her?"
Fang Qing: "..."
"Alright, what's the point of all this? Just tell me if you're going to do it or not."
"Damn it, I guess I'm broke."
"Don't give me that, I know you have money. Finding a few kids will only cost ten or eight yuan."
Wang Jianguo thought about it and agreed. He could just find a few mischievous kids to pass it around. Why would he need ten or eight yuan? He could just give them a few candies and they'd run faster than rabbits.
