The 100th problem is thoroughly resolved
"Liang Jing, Luo Feng... he... he's not here." Liang Jing's expectant gaze made Zhuang Meili unable to tell the truth, but her guilty tone was clearly a lie. Liang Jing's eyes quickly misted over: "No need to deceive me, is it that he doesn't want to see me?"
"This... " Zhuang Meili was also very surprised at Luo Feng's 360-degree turn in attitude towards Liang Jing, previously it was obvious that Luo Feng liked Liang Jing more than she liked him.
"Actually, I don't want to cling to him or anything, I just want to know where I went wrong and made him dislike me, I want to know if I still have a chance." Liang Jing grasped Zhuang Mei Li's hand: "Mei Li, the person I feel most guilty towards is you, knowing that you liked him, but still couldn't control myself from wanting to get close to him and catch his attention.
"But you're beautiful, intelligent, pretty and educated, it's easy for you to find a suitable boyfriend. As for me, just being a working girl makes me feel inferior, it's hard to find someone who doesn't look down on my status as a working girl, can you help me out?"
"What... what do you mean? Are you saying I'm obstructing?" Zhuang Meili's face turned bright red with anger, her good intentions had been misunderstood.
"Beautiful, you misunderstood me. I'm explaining the reason for doing this, hoping you can forgive me. In this city, you are the only true friend who is good to me unconditionally. My colleagues, my uncle... everyone else won't help me without conditions, only your kindness to me is unconditional, Beautiful... can you please forgive me?"
"Don't cry like that, everyone is looking over here. Let's go talk over there." Zhuang Meili pulled Liang Jing to the small woods in school and looked around to make sure no one was there before sighing softly: "Liang Jing, I did hate you, thinking you betrayed our friendship. But from this, I also came to understand that love can't be forced. If it's not his cup of tea, why force him to eat something that doesn't agree with him? Forget it, let's just call it even. Actually, you didn't do anything wrong, he just never liked me."
Liang Jing tentatively asked: "Mei Li, you came today, actually forgiving me, didn't want to see me make a fool of myself, right?"
"Yes, after all, we are fellow villagers and friends. Everyone in my dormitory knows you, if you lose face, I won't necessarily gain much honor either, it's just that I don't quite understand. You who have always been so concerned about saving face, how did you become like this now?" Zhuang Meili said frankly.
"Beautiful, some time ago, my grandfather and father deceived me by saying that my mother was ill to lure me back home. In reality, they wanted me to marry the son of a tofu shop owner, who promised to give 30,000 yuan as a betrothal gift plus cover my brother's high school and university tuition fees. I refused to be sold like this, so I went on a hunger strike in protest."
Grandfather, father and mother insisted that it was for my own good, saying that I couldn't be allowed to drift aimlessly in the city like an unwanted old maid, ending up like Chen Lingqin. But I'm only 20 years old, how can they see through to the end now? In the end, it was my younger brother who couldn't bear to watch and let me out at midnight, but during our escape, I almost got raped...
Liang Jing's words were a mix of truth and falsehood, causing Zhuang Mei to tear up: "Jingjing, what era are we living in? How can parents still arrange marriages and restrict their children? Er Ye, Wu Shu, and Wu Sheng have gone too far! When I called home recently, my mom didn't mention this. I wouldn't be angry with you if I had known. However, Jingjing, if the only reason for marrying a local is to gain face in front of your family, isn't that unfair to Luo Feng?"
"Beautiful, I really like Luo Feng, he gave me a very down-to-earth feeling." Liang Jing sighed softly: "From the first time we met, I was attracted to him, but considering that he is the boy you liked, I tried my best to control myself, and in the end... Ah..."
Zhuang Meili hugged Liang Jing's shoulder: "Forget it, it's all in the past, from now on..."
You're still my best friend, but tell me honestly, have you done anything to wrong Luofeng?
"No." Liang Jing shook her head: "I lost my wallet and asked him for help when I was fine, but after I escaped from home, he ignored me."
"That's strange, it shouldn't be like that with Luo Feng's personality?" Zhuang Meili thought for a moment: "Or, you wait here, I'll go find Luo Feng to ask him for you."
Liang Jing nodded happily: "Okay, thank you, Mei Li."
"Take a look at Luo Feng again appearing beside the bed, Zhuang Mei Li said: 'If you're still talking about Liang Jing's affairs, you can leave.'"
"Luofeng, this is where you're wrong. Your previous behavior clearly showed that you liked Liang Jing. She was moved by you, but you avoided her from afar. What's the meaning of this? Are you playing with people's emotions? Liang Jing is a poor girl. Last time, she was forced to return home and get married by her family. For your sake, she ran out in the middle of the night and almost got raped. Do you have the nerve to treat her like this?"
Luofeng straightened up quickly, his tone slightly urgent: "What's going on? Tell me in detail."
……
Afternoon activity time.
"I'm out, you two are too good at aiming, I'm just a laborer, not playing anymore!" Yǐng Nuò pouted and sat on the ground, the three of them were playing a game of hitting people, she was always the one responsible for hitting others, got annoyed.
"You don't exercise enough, you used to laugh at my skinny arms and legs, now I'm the strongest, what does that say?" Luo Ye smiled and pulled her up: "It just rained, don't sit on the ground casually, or you'll catch a chill and have no one to cry to."
"I'm too tired." Yǐng Nuò reluctantly stood up and leaned on Luò Yè's body: "I really can't stand it, be my backrest."
"Lazy bum, go to the rest area!" Luo Ye laughed and nodded at Xiao Nu's little nose: "Sister-in-law and little sister are being coquettish, really shameless."
"Lolo, you'll also have a day when I get the upper hand on you." Yino's small nose wrinkled: "Hmph... just wait and see how I'll deal with you then."
Tang Luo playfully pinched Nuo's earlobe: "Nuo, it seems you're determined to become Lolo's sister-in-law."
"Die, Tang Tang!" Ying Nu suddenly laughed with curved eyebrows: "Is someone jealous? It's still possible to speak your mind now, we can have a fair competition."
"It's all over, Nono has gone mad." Tang Luo spread his hands and remained speechless.
The rest area had only Pan Fang and Zhang Jinyan sitting there watching the excitement, seeing a few people coming over, they quickly moved in while laughing and greeting, Tang Luo suddenly pointed at a boy leaning on the basketball frame: "You guys say he is male or female?"
"Cut the crap, of course it's a boy!"
"But I feel like something's off?" Tang Luo rubbed his chin with a puzzled expression.
"It's a girl." Luo Ye glanced at her several times: "She was obviously deliberately disguised as a boy, wearing a high collar in the middle of summer to cover up her neck, and...her chest. If you look closely, it's easy to tell."
"I said. How come it feels strange." Tang Luo nodded her little head: "You guys say, isn't she hot? Why dress up as a boy?"
"I know." Pan Fang leaned forward, "Her name is Yang Yaoguang, she's the niece of Teacher Yang. She has liked dressing up as a boy since she was young, and if anyone dares to say she's a girl, she'll definitely turn against you."
Ying Nu was tangled in her own hair: "But she's obviously a girl, does that mean if she says she's a boy then she's a boy?"
"Is she going to the men's or women's restroom?" Tang Luo asked a very annoying question.
Pan Fang shook her head: "She never goes to the toilet in front of people, so I don't know about this."
"Poor kid, suffocated."
"Shanono, I've lived so long and haven't suffocated to death yet, you're worrying for nothing." Tang Luo patted his forehead: "Such a unique classmate. How did we just find out?"
"She wasn't from our school before, just transferred over. We were classmates in elementary school." Pan Fang lowered her voice: "Remember, never say she's a girl in front of her face. The reason she transferred schools is that some classmates said she was dressed as a boy and not a girl, and she heard it, got angry and broke someone's nasal bone, and finally got expelled from school. If it weren't for Teacher Yang speaking up for her, I'm afraid our school wouldn't have taken her either, but she's actually quite good at studying."
"Another kid with a wounded heart."
"Go comfort her." Tang Luo pulled on Ying Nuo's arm: "You write her a love letter, that's the best way to comfort her."
"Get out! Oh, and your love letter, read it to us." Xing Nuo turned to Tang Luo's front and rummaged through her pocket: "If you hadn't reminded me, I would have almost forgotten. Too unconscious, should take the initiative to read it to us, right?"
Tang Luo smiled and pinched Ying Nu's tender cheek: "Want to hear? Okay, I'll tell you. Let Luo Feng brother write it for you, Luo Luo, your sister-in-law wants a love letter, little girl, are you helping to pass it on?"
"Dead Tang Tang, eh? You... which class are you from, why are you staring at me like that?"
Several people turned their heads to follow Shino's line of sight. They saw a slender girl staring at Shino with tears in her eyes, her expression a mix of understanding, sadness and seemingly a hint of resentment...
It was clear that the person who came was Liang Jing, and Luo Ye's eyebrows furrowed, then relaxed a little, which meant that her brother had rejected her, otherwise she wouldn't have come to find him.
"Luoye, I've come to find you. Can we talk?" Liang Jing's pitiful expression made anyone who saw it feel that refusing her would be a cruel thing to do.
"Can brother really withstand such an expression? Luo Ye's heart flashed a hint of doubt, but her face was still wearing a faint smile: "Liang Jing, what do you want to talk to me about?"
Liang Jing swept a glance at Ying Nuò and rubbed her sleeves: "Luoye, can we talk alone for a bit?"
"Alright." Luo Ye also wanted to settle this matter as soon as possible, so he readily agreed to the other party's request.
"Lo Lo......" Ying Nu and Tang Luo both had worried faces, while Pan Fang clenched her fist at Liang Jing: "If anyone dares to bully Luo Ye, my fists won't agree."
"Nothing will happen, don't worry."
"Pan Fang, are you pretending or is it real?" Ying Nuo looked at Pan Fang suspiciously, feeling that she seemed a bit too excited.
Pan Fang was displeased: "What's with the attitude? Luo Ye saved my cousin and her husband, they're benefactors of the Pan family... aside from my beautiful cousin having some minor issues with him, everyone else is grateful to Luo Ye."
"Right, Lolo only briefly told us about your cousin and her husband's situation, but we don't really know the specifics. Can you tell us in detail what happened?"
"Nuo Nuo, you don't even know she's your sister-in-law?"
"Dong Dong!"
“……”
The laughter of a few people faintly reached Luo Ye and Liang Jing's ears, Luo Ye's eyes were full of smiles, but Liang Jing's face was even more gloomy. Luo Ye disliked her for this, she was very clear about it, if not for the last resort, she wouldn't have taken this approach either.
It seems that Luo Feng has taken a liking to Luo Ye's classmate, that sweet and lovely little girl? Has he really moved on so quickly? It appears that men are indeed untrustworthy. Liang Jing's fists clenched, but the guilt in her heart dissipated.
"There's no one here, speak."
Liang Jing Meng suddenly came to, and instinctively looked around. They were currently at the northwest corner of the playground, with no one else in sight. It was actually a quiet and secluded spot.
"Luoye..." A faint smile hung on her delicate face, and the words that Liang Jing wanted to say got stuck in her throat. Why did she have a feeling that everything was within the other person's expectations?
Impossible, it must be an illusion! Liang Jing calmly cleared her throat and said: "Luoye, I came to find you today because I wanted to ask for your help. Can I?"
"What can I help you with? Are we familiar?" Luo Ye suppressed the urge to hit her, this woman, in her previous life, had won over her brother's heart with such a pitiful and innocent look.
Liang Jing hesitated for a moment: "My feeling... you've never liked me. What exactly did I do to offend you, can you tell me?"
"This is not necessary, I am not your friend. Nor do I plan to be your friend, whether I like you or not is irrelevant." Luo Ye's expression was indifferent: "Since you've come, don't beat around the bush, get to the point already."
Liang Jing was choked for half a day and couldn't catch her breath.
Looking at her bewildered expression, Luo Ye let out a soft sigh. This woman was quite pitiful in many ways, but what she shouldn't have done was to prioritize her own interests and play with other people's lives.
Even if she hadn't become that bad, she couldn't forgive her. Let alone speak to her in a gentle tone!
Liang Jing returned to her senses after a while and continued: "Luoye, I think you've noticed that I like your brother Luofeng. My intuition tells me he likes me too."
But suddenly he stopped paying attention to me. I went to look for him but he wouldn't see me, and when Beautiful told him about my miserable situation, all I got was a wish for my future happiness, yet still he refused to see me - this wasn't like him at all.
"After thinking it over, I think the change in his attitude must have originated from you, Luo Ye. I'm a pitiful woman, please don't stop me from being with him, okay?"
"Why should I stop you?" Luo Ye looked at her opponent with a playful gaze, this woman dared to come and find her, which meant she had enough courage and ambition.
"I've said it before, you never liked me and definitely wouldn't want me to be your sister-in-law." Liang Jing's tears fell: "You're doing this, hurting not just me, but Luo Feng won't be happy either."
"How dare you pat your conscience and say you like my brother?" Luo Ye's cold eyes made Liang Jing a little nervous, but she nodded firmly: "I love him! Really!"
Luo Ye sneered: "So you plan to sell him?"
"Luoye, what do you mean by that? How could I have sold Luofeng?" Liang Jing's eyes suddenly widened, obviously, Luoye's words had frightened her and made her feel guilty.
"Qian Mei, agreement, do I need to say more?" Luo Ye took a step forward "slap" "slap", two slaps: "I, Luo Ye, never hit people randomly, but you insulted me and wanted to harm my brother, these two slaps are really too cheap for you."
"Lu... Lu Ye, listen to me explaining..." Liang Jing was panicked for a moment, after all, her experience was laid out there, suddenly encountering such a thing, it's strange if she wasn't panicked.
"No need to explain, Qian Mei has already told me everything. Today, I'll meet you and tell you straight out that I'm not afraid of your nonsense. From now on, you're never allowed to see my brother again, or else you'll regret it."
"I swear, I won't look for Luo Feng again, I won't see Luo Feng again, nothing... nothing..." Liang Jing had fallen into a state of mental confusion, muttering incoherently. This outcome, she hadn't even dreamed of, but was that Qian Mei intentionally trying to harm her and test her? Her mind was extremely muddled.
Lu Ye gazed coldly at his opponent: "Tell me your next move."
"What's the plan next?" Liang Jing turned around after a while: "I'll go back and resign immediately, get my salary, pack up and leave this city, I promise not to come back, can I?"
"Alright, I'll give you three days. If it's late, you should know the consequences better than me. Of course, it's not what I want, think about your agreement." Luo Ye smiled and gently patted the other person's face: "I'm letting you off easy, to be honest, I want to kill you, believe it?"
"Believe it!" Liang Jing clearly saw the hidden hatred in Luo Ye's dark eyes, of course, she understood all this as a disaster caused by signing the agreement.
"Get out!"
Liang Jing hesitated for a moment: "May I ask one more question, was Qian Mei's actions something you all intentionally arranged?"
"Is there a difference?"
"No, no, I'll quit right now. If possible, please help me apologize to Luo Feng. Actually, I really like him, it's just that the situation forced me to take this step..." Luo Ye's increasingly cold gaze made Liang Jing unable to make any more excuses, and she shrank back: "Luo Ye, goodbye."
Watching Liang Jing walk away, Luo Ye's hidden tears fell. She didn't have to worry about her brother anymore. Of course, she was clear that even if her brother and Liang Jing were together in this life, the same thing as last time wouldn't happen. However, she couldn't allow a woman with such a venomous heart to enter the Luo family's home. Absolutely not allowed!
Liang Jing's departure was timely, if it were earlier, she really had no way to drive her away like this. This afternoon, she had already met with Qian Mei and had taken control of the situation. So, no matter how Liang Jing struggled, there would be no problem, let alone now that Liang Jing wouldn't even struggle.
……
"Liang Jing, why are you resigning in such a hurry?" Chi Xiaofeng looked at Liang Jing who was sorting out the documents on her desk. There was a hint of joy in his eyes, thinking to himself that with Liang Jing leaving, he would definitely be the one taking over her responsibilities.
"After staying in one place for too long, I want to change my environment." Liang Jing forced a smile. Her uncle was very angry about her resignation, but because of their kinship, after failing to persuade her, he readily accepted it and didn't even deduct her salary.
"I've never heard you mention it before, or I'll send you off tonight. Is that okay?" Chi Xiaofeng patted his hand: "Let's chip in to see Liang Jing off, agree or disagree?"
"Agreed!"
"Agreed!"
“……”
Everyone was chattering and gathering around. Only Jiang Hui sat at the table, deep in thought. He had secretly followed Liang Jing before and naturally knew who Liang Jing liked. After weighing it, he felt that just relying on appearance and education, he couldn't compare to the other person, so he stopped pursuing her. Could it be that Liang Jing was leaving because of that man's rejection?
The farewell dinner at night, everyone was drinking happily. Liang Jing's relative identity was a mountain in everyone's heart, and this mountain was removed, so everyone also had a goal to strive for, but they would also have a subtle sense of reluctance in their hearts after such a long time together, which is a very complicated emotion.
When Liang Jing went to the bathroom, Jiang Hui also followed her out. The crowd's eyes revealed a knowing expression, and Chi Xiaofeng let out a soft sigh: "Actually, Jiang Hui is quite pitiful too. Let's not disturb them, let them have a good talk."
"We know." Wei Chunhui's words took a turn: "Xiao Feng, since Liang Jing is gone, you are the most likely to become our leader. Let me toast you first, and in the future, be sure to treat your brothers and sisters well!"
"Right, after the proposal is settled, Xiaofeng will treat us to a meal!"
“……”
Jiang Hui stood in the corridor, listening to the faint sound of conversation coming from inside. He shook his head helplessly. That's how relationships between colleagues were - if you invested too much hope, you would end up getting hurt.
"Liang Jing, are you okay?" Seeing Liang Jing stumbling out of the bathroom, Jiang Hui quickly stepped forward to support her: "I'll help you go over there and rest for a bit."
"Jiang Hui, thank you!" Liang Jing lazily leaned back on the sofa: "I know, you're genuinely good to me, but I've done many things that hurt you, sorry!"
Jiang Hui stared straight at Liang Jing: "Is it worth giving up all of this for that man?"
"You misunderstood, I... did some wrong things, and I'm too ashamed to stay in this city anymore. Leaving is the best choice. Jiang Hui, you have to believe me, no matter where I go, I'll make a name for myself! Liang Jing wiped her face, shaking off her earlier despair: "I won't be defeated so easily, I still haven't made my family proud yet."
"Shall I walk with you?" Jiang Hui said after finishing his sentence, letting out a long sigh and looking at the other person hesitantly.
"For me, giving up, is it worth it?" Liang Jing smiled bleakly: "I'm not worth it, Jiang Hui, don't get close to me, I'm a bad person, I don't want to harm you."
Jiang Hui's eyes were extremely determined: "Don't talk nonsense, as long as you're willing, I'll accompany you, forever accompanying you!"
"Let me think." Liang Jing lowered her head, tears quietly falling, she really wanted to agree, but did she have the qualifications to agree?
