After I finished speaking, Zhang Xinwei was obviously furious. She said angrily: "Liang Zijin, you don't have any excuses to try to trick me! Chen Wenhang and I broke up a long time ago. If you don't believe me, you can call him and ask him. There was so much trouble after graduation. I won’t say anything since everyone in the school knows about it. Now you still want to go back to Liangcheng to make trouble. Okay, I’ll leave it here for you today. If my family doesn’t have a good time, your family won’t be able to have a good time either!”
"You think I don't know what you did in Night City? What's the difference between her and me?"
Pan Siyu said: "Stop pretending to be a victim here, you are punishing me with evil!"
Zhang Xinwei snorted coldly, and then said: "Evil will be punished? Doesn't she believe in retribution the most? Then ask her, is it my fault that she is in the situation she is in today, or is it her own fault?"
Pan Siyu frowned and said, "Are you admitting that the post was made by you?"
Zhang Xinwei said: "If you have evidence, you can go to the police station to sue me. Anyway, the deputy director of the police station is her father, and she can do whatever she wants. But if you don't have evidence, and you dare to come to my house to make trouble, then no one should do it this year." After that, I don’t believe that Liang Zijin can be so clean!”
After that, she hung up the phone without giving Pan Siyu a chance to say anything else.
Pan Siyu was so angry that he called back, but soon he couldn't get through and was blacklisted.
We sat on the sofa and were speechless for a while. The only sound that came to our ears was the wild singing from the private room next door. After a long silence, Chen Chen was the first to speak up. She looked at me and asked, "Zijin, was it you who kicked Zhang Xinwei out of the company?"
When Zhang Xinwei said this on the phone just now, I was a little surprised.
Shaking my head, I replied truthfully: "She works as a receptionist at a hotel owned by Luo's. It is clearly not an official employee of the company. We hardly meet each other. I don't have the time to find someone to exclude her."
Li Runzhu said: "Then someone must have known about your relationship and secretly divorced Zhang Xinwei in order to please you. Zhang Xinwei turned around and blamed the incident on you."
Chen Chen said: "Isn't she like a mad dog..."
I frowned after hearing this, and I couldn't tell whether it was anger or hatred.
Pan Siyu said: "Go to her house and tell her parents. I still don't believe it. If her parents knew that she had been cheating on you and Chen Wenhang for two years, they wouldn't have skinned her!"
Li Runzhu said: "Don't be impulsive yet, the Chinese New Year will be here soon. If things really get too big, everyone will not be able to live a good New Year."
Pan Siyu asked, "Then we can still swallow our anger and let her bully Zijin like this?"
Li Runzhu frowned and fell into deep thought.
Chen Chen is the least central among us. She didn't want to be too fussy and asked me directly: "Zijin, what's going on with you and your boss?"
Neither Li Runzhu nor Pan Siyu asked me about this, because deep down they were still afraid that something would happen between me and Luo Xiangdong.
Hearing this, I was silent for a while, and then replied: "I have liked him, but I swear to the lamp, I have never slept with him."
I automatically skipped the relationship between Luo Xiangdong and Kuang Yiyang, otherwise it would be too long and too complicated to talk about.
Pan Siyu immediately said: "We have a clear conscience, what is there to be afraid of? Is it true that Zhang Xinwei slept with Chen Wenhang? We are not guessing about her being a sugar daddy outside, just saying that she robbed her sisters Boyfriend, just this one thing is enough to make her unable to stay in Liangcheng, and everyone will treat her like shit!"
Chen Chen suddenly slapped his thigh, widened his eyes and said, "I know."
Li Runzhu said: "What did you want to say out of surprise?"
Chen Chen said: "Is this Zhang Xinwei's pre-emptive attack? She was afraid that Zi Jin would expose her scandal, so she tricked Zi Jin first, so that everyone would have a preconceived idea that Zi Jin was an unscrupulous person. As soon as the post came out , even if we talk about her scandal in the future, at worst she will refuse to admit it with Chen Wenhang, what can we do? Everyone will think that we are retaliating against her. "
Pan Siyu had a look of disgust on his face: "What a fool, you're playing tricks on us."
After that, she looked at me again and said, "Zijin, don't think so much. She is unkind and you are unjust. Go to her house now. I still don't believe that there is no justice."
Li Runzhu said: "My dad said a few days ago that Zhang Xinwei accompanied her mother to the hospital for a CT scan. She has a bad heart and plans to go to Dongcheng for surgery."
Li Runzhu's father is a doctor in the hospital, so this is certainly true.
I thought about the situation in Zhang Xinwei's family. After her brother got into a fight and was imprisoned, her mother's heart disease became more and more serious. In the past two years, she had suffered several heart attacks and almost couldn't be saved. Zhang Xinwei's father was an ordinary worker, earning two thousand a month. Many bucks. There is only one word "difficult" left in the whole family.
After a long silence, I leaned over and took out two tissues on the table, wiped away my tears, and said aloud: "I won't go to her house."
The three of them looked at me, and I said calmly: "It's not the fault of the family. Zhang Xinwei has done the harm herself, and it has nothing to do with her family. Besides, I have been playing in her house since I was a child, and her parents are very good to me, not to mention her brother." It’s good for me, I can’t go to her house to make trouble during the Chinese New Year.”
Pan Siyu asked: "Then let this matter go?"
I said: "The post has been deleted, and I also know that it was Zhang Xinwei who did it. Why didn't she challenge me about retribution? I really want to see who of us is the one who deserves retribution. There is still a long way to go, let's go Let’s see.”
Having said that, I speak openly and do not regret this decision, but I am worried. Again, Liangcheng is too young, and a girl in a different class from my school is probably the daughter of a female teacher in my mother’s workplace; the boy who is younger than me in the next class is likely to know my cousin. It was his buddy; I was even walking on the road, and suddenly I was stopped by some little girls and asked if I was Liang Zijin.
I said: "Yes."
They said: "Senior sister, we are also in high school, and my brother even played football with you."
I smiled, actually God knows who her brother is.
With such a complicated network of people and social circles, I don’t know how wide the area of influence would be if a hundred people knew the content of that post.
My parents are both decent people and have lived a glorious and respectable life. At this age, it is time to fight for children. I understand how they feel when they show off my million-dollar annual salary in front of outsiders, so I am even more afraid of how they will bear it if some rumors get to their ears.
Chen Chen and the others advised me not to take it seriously. If anyone around them mentioned this, they would definitely help explain it.
But I was thinking, after all, they are not the parties involved. If I come back to Liangcheng this time for a temporary stay, that's fine. At worst, I'll leave after the New Year. Out of sight, out of mind. But I can never go back to Night City again. I don’t know how long I will stay in Liangcheng.
For some reason, I always have a vague misconception that this matter will not be hidden for long, and sooner or later it will reach the ears of our family.
