Chapter 114: Chapter 114 Malicious Slander
So, Qin Cuifen took a deep breath, straightened her ample chest, and assumed a superior air as she said, “Did you tell me that you never had any interest in Captain Xu and that you’ve already broken off the engagement with him? Could it be that you covet his position because he is the youngest captain in our district?”
This remark was a downright stab to the heart.
Liu Yilan indeed revealed a contemptuous expression.
Yang Xiaoman’s gaze towards Sheng Ning also carried a hint of disappointment.
After spending three days together, they had thought she wasn’t as despicable as the rumors suggested, but it turned out to be just a facade. Living Yama was the pride of their district, a hero during medical emergencies at the Southern Border. How could they allow anyone to scheme against him so easily?
“Ningning, listen to my advice. If you don’t like Captain Xu, you shouldn’t deliberately plot against him, preventing him from finding his own happiness,” Qin Cuifen advised earnestly.
“Exactly, Sheng Ning, you’re really going too far,” Zhou Xuelian, who reveled in the excitement and didn’t mind fanning the flames, stepped forward, hooked arms with Qin Cuifen, proudly lifted her chin, and rolled her eyes at her.
Sheng Ning’s sharp gaze turned towards Zhou Xuelian, who was so intimidated that she involuntarily clammed up.
“Cuifen, didn’t you tell me how madly in love you were with Shen Jianguo! Is that a lie too?” Hmph! Who can’t sling mud?
“You… why bring up Mr. Shen all of a sudden?” Qin Cuifen clenched her teeth in secret, not willing to give in, “Mr. Shen and I are just ordinary friends, how can you make such baseless accusations?”
“Who is Shen Jianguo?” Yang Xiaoman quietly asked Liu Yilan, though her voice was soft, everyone present could hear her.
“The son of the President of the Rescue Center, graduated from the Advanced Command College,” Liu Yilan watched Qin Cuifen with a cold snicker, her lips curling into a barely there sneer.
Sheng Ning being with Living Yama was truly nothing to fuss about, after all, no woman had the courage to conquer such a cold-hearted man. But Shen Jianguo was different; he was the Prince Charming in the eyes of all the female comrades. The women who dreamt of marrying him could form a line from the Rescue Association to the Provincial Rescue Center.
Zhou Xuelian’s arm, linked with Qin Cuifen’s, stiffened, and even the way she looked at her changed.
“Qin Cuifen, I thought the discussion during lunch with the War Wolf Rescue Team was clear enough, but it seems you still don’t understand,” Sheng Ning looked at her with pity, smiling as she said, “I haven’t said or done anything yet, and you couldn’t wait to leap out. What exactly are you trying to achieve? Do you have a grievance against me, against Xu Qigang, or is it that you have an issue with the War Wolf Rescue Team?”
Standing by the side of the road with many passing comrades around, Qin Cuifen’s response, no matter whom it targeted, would ensure today’s conversation spread, and the end result would be offending the War Wolf Rescue Team.
“Of course, I have a problem with you,” Qin Cuifen blurted out, immediately regretting it so much that she fiercely pinched herself.
That damn Sheng Ning, she had set a verbal trap for her. Why? Why had she changed so much since the party? She was nothing but trouble.
The answer had always been within Sheng Ning’s expectations. She looked at Qin Cuifen with a smile that was not quite a smile until Qin Cuifen became flustered, her face reddening.
“Cuifen, we are from the General Union Song and Dance Troupe. I hope you can remember your responsibilities from now on and refrain from spreading rumors everywhere. You’re not just losing face for the union, but also for our Song and Dance Troupe,” Sheng Ning said with righteous indignation.
She wasn’t just putting on airs to lecture someone; she genuinely believed it. The things Qin Cuifen had done made Sheng Ning truly look down on her.
What do you think?
