Chapter 2154 Yang Erdan Adds Fuel to the Fire
Chapter 2154 Yang Erdan Adds Fuel to the Fire
The friendly forces whispered amongst themselves, discussing countermeasures, but the enemy in the screening room overheard them.
Today we've already had our hand-holding and hugging, now it's time for some serious verbal sparring.
Lin Chen's time is precious; he doesn't have time to wait for next time. Besides, there's always another job to do next time they meet...
After a few minutes
The two girls walked out confidently, then gave an awkward smile to Sister Wang, whom they knew: "Sister Wang, are all the people around us our own?"
"Of course, we've been servants of the Lin family for over twenty years. We only obey the master and mistress, but we can't do that openly now. You can rest assured! No one will disturb your movie viewing."
The little girl thought, "This isn't a movie at all! We don't even remember what was on!"
However, the little girl now finally understands that these people used to be members of the Lin family. They just went into hiding because servants were no longer allowed.
"Sister Wang, is the lady you're talking about Sister Huairu? Does she know us?"
The two girls looked at each other curiously, eager to know Qin Huairu's opinion.
"Of course it's her. She's due to give birth in the next couple of days, so she hasn't seen you. Don't worry, Madam has a very good temper; you'll see later. People are coming, so let's go!"
"Hey, thank you, Sister Wang. Let's go back!"
The two girls were finally relieved, as long as they weren't discovered.
They quickly returned to their seats...
They'd already discussed their options and were ready to stick together; they'd made enough progress today. If they let that big bad guy get away with it, it would make them look like they lacked self-respect. Things couldn't have progressed that fast; what if Brother Lin Chen thought they were promiscuous?
So they decided they couldn't let the other person take advantage of them any further, and at most they would just hug each other through their clothes.
Since it already happened on the small boat, we can relax that rule now. But we absolutely cannot let him run rampant in the other areas...
As soon as Tian Yezi sat down, Lin Chen reached out his arm again and whispered something in her ear.
"Are you not nervous now?"
The little girl lowered her head, smiled, and nodded without answering... but her actions spoke volumes; she moved a few steps closer.
At this moment, Lin Chen continued, "You are all good girls. I have never misjudged anyone, nor have I ever looked down on you..."
Tian Yezi was about to retort, saying that even so, you can't push your luck. But before she could reply, she felt a light peck on her burning cheek.
A sneak attack! It was definitely a sneak attack that caught her off guard. The little girl was so frightened that she quickly retreated to create distance.
"You...you can't just bully me alone."
Although Tian Yezi appeared sullen, she was secretly overjoyed. Because Lin Chen had already assured her he wouldn't misunderstand them…
As Tian Yezi spoke, she pushed Lin Chen to the other side, but Lin Chen wasn't in a hurry to deal with He Xiulian.
He Xiulian clearly felt Lin Chen being pushed towards her, so she curiously leaned over.
"What are you two saying? Can't you just watch the movie in peace?"

On the other side of Beijing
Jiudaowanzi
A week later, Tong Zhi and Da Zhuang had finally recovered to about 70-80%...
When Tong Zhi heard that Sha Zhu had actually mocked him for being a woman, he immediately flew into a rage.
"That bastard Sha Zhu dared to mock me again. Next time I see him, I'll beat him up. Let's see if he dares to talk nonsense again..."
"Great, we'll go to work with everyone tomorrow. These bastards actually hired outside help again... Anyone can do that."
The people of Jiudaowanzi are incredibly hypocritical; they repeatedly ganged up with Uncle Niu to beat up the people in the courtyard house, yet they didn't mention a word about it. But when Sha Zhu called his brother-in-law for help, they scolded him for a whole week…
Yang Erdan and Jia Dongxu didn't get along in the workshop and had been arguing frequently over the years... So he added fuel to the fire again.
Originally, Jia Dongxu was going to insult him, but this kid changed it so that Jia Dongxu was going to insult Tong Zhi.
"Brother Tong, you have no idea! This past week, Jia Dongxu has been talking about you in the workshop. That kid tells everyone he meets that he beat you so badly that you knelt down and begged for mercy."
Tong Zhi had already planned to take revenge on Jia Dongxu, but Yang Erdan joined in the commotion... This further solidified Tong Zhi's resolve to seek revenge.
"What a load of bull! I only lost to him that day because I was ambushed by idiot Zhu's brother-in-law. Let him wait and see! He's the worst loser in the whole courtyard... and he even dares to mock me! I'll fucking kill him!"
Tong Zhi stormed out, now needing to find a place to confront him. This couldn't be delayed any longer; he'd deal with Jia Dongxu's mother first. Then he'd see how this son, with his door half-closed, dared to challenge him.
Tong Zhi initially planned to lead Jia Zhangshi in guerrilla warfare, but now Da Zhuang wants to find a place to have some fun. Therefore, Tong Zhi needs to find a secluded spot…
"I should go check on Matchmaker Li first. It's been several days and there's still no news. If it's hard to find someone in the city, surely it's easy to find someone in the countryside?"
He Yufen was found by Da Zhuang in Shunyi. Tong Zhi's requirements aren't high either; a second marriage is acceptable. However, she must have a clean record and no entanglements with her ex-husband's family. Whether divorced or widowed is fine, but she cannot be over thirty years old.
Tong Zhi's requirements seemed low, but the matchmaker, Li, had yet to arrange a marriage for him.
After all, who this guy marries is no longer a decision he can make...
the other side
Tian Fujun saw his elder brother's son off...
Xu Aiyun didn't go with them, citing the excuse of putting the child to sleep. Tian Fujun understood her attitude just by looking at the dishes his wife had prepared at the dinner table.
The family has chicken, fish, meat, and eggs, but the wife only prepared one meat dish and one vegetable dish. It's clear she's not very satisfied with her husband…
"Uncle Fujun, you should go back and rest! I know the way back. If I hadn't made plans with my friends, I would have chatted with you a little longer."
Li Xiangqian wasn't a child; he could clearly sense that Uncle Fujun treated him quite well, but Aunt Aiyun wasn't as enthusiastic.
After watching the young man leave, Tian Fujun sighed and went home.
In Tian Fujun's mind, his niece marrying into the Li family was already a step up for her. But his daughter-in-law's behavior today was a bit unpredictable!
Filled with doubt, Tian Fujun tiptoed into the bedroom, acting like a thief mainly because he was afraid of waking his girl.
"have you slept?"
Xu Aiyun waved to her man, signaling him to leave...
"Just fell asleep!"
The couple then tiptoed out of the bedroom together...
"Old Tian, what's wrong with you? We agreed that you'd handle external affairs and I'd handle internal affairs, and Yezi's matter would be a family affair. Have you forgotten again? Didn't we promise Dr. Shi that we'd wait for her to introduce Yezi to someone? Why are you wavering again now that you've seen Li Dengyun's son!"
Although Tian Fujun wasn't particularly afraid of his wife, he generally listened to everything Xu Aiyun said. Especially when it came to household matters, Xu Aiyun was basically the one who made the decisions in the Tian family.
"I just thought the young man was alright, but I didn't agree to anything! Besides, the one Doctor Shi introduced might not necessarily be better than Brother Dengyun's son!"
Tian Yezi had been out all day and hadn't returned yet, and Xu Aiyun didn't know how things were going with her niece. So, they decided to wait for her niece to come back before making any decisions...
