Chapter 210 Discovering Adultery! Swallow Stays Out All Night
Upon hearing this, Aunt Hua's tears flowed even more fiercely.
"I know! How could I not know it was a pit of fire!"
Aunt Hua beat her chest and stamped her feet, "That damned Zhao Guangming, relying on his father being a factory director, has ruined so many good girls! But that brat Yanzi, blinded by greed, insists that he is truly in love with her, that he is sincere towards her, and even said he would buy me a gold ring to wear."
At this point, Aunt Hua suddenly lowered her voice.
"Little sister, do you know... Yanzi didn't come home last night."
Li Xianglian stopped doing her needlework completely.
really.
"Didn't you go home?" Li Xianglian asked knowingly. "Then where did you go?"
"I asked Old Liu, the gatekeeper, to pass on a message that the factory is working overtime and it's too late, so the female workers are spending the night in the dormitory."
Aunt Hua's voice trembled violently, "But I went to the dormitory first thing this morning to look for her, and the auntie who looks after the dormitory said that Yanzi hadn't been there at all!"
"I went to her office again, but no one was there. Where did that brat go all night?!"
Aunt Hua became increasingly frightened as she thought about it, her mind filled with those chaotic images.
These days, a girl's reputation is more important than her life.
If word gets out that he didn't come home that night, people will gossip about him.
Looking at Aunt Hua's bewildered appearance, Li Xianglian sighed inwardly.
She hesitated for a moment, but decided to tell the truth anyway.
Even if it's unpleasant to hear, we need to make sure Aunt Hua understands the situation, so that we don't end up not being able to find her later.
"Auntie," Li Xianglian said seriously, "Last night, Sister Xiao Lan and I set up a stall outside the movie theater to sell hair ties..."
"You went to the movie theater?" Aunt Hua was taken aback.
"Yes." Li Xianglian nodded. "I saw swallows."
"She's at the movie theater?" Aunt Hua's eyes lit up. "Did she go to the movies with her colleagues?"
Li Xianglian shook her head, cruelly shattering her illusion: "She was with Zhao Guangming. Zhao Guangming was riding a big motorcycle, and Yanzi was sitting on the back. The two looked... quite intimate."
In fact, it's more than just intimate; they're practically glued together.
But facing an anxious mother, Li Xianglian simply couldn't bring herself to say "hug and embrace."
Aunt Hua's face turned deathly pale instantly, her lips trembling: "With...with Zhao Guangming? In the middle of the night?"
"Later, after the movie ended, I saw them ride away on their motorcycles."
Li Xianglian didn't mention Zhao Guangming's harassment of her, nor the farce, "She went towards the east side of the city. There seem to be quite a few guesthouses there."
"guest House……"
These three words were like a heavy hammer blow, slamming into Aunt Hua's skull.
She swayed and almost fell off the stool.
As someone who's been through it all, Aunt Hua knew exactly what it meant for a lone man and woman to go to a guesthouse late at night.
That's like cooking raw rice into cooked rice, that's like sending a young, innocent girl's body into that mud pit!
"What a tragedy! What a tragedy!"
Aunt Hua suddenly let out a wailing cry, covering her face with her hands and sobbing uncontrollably, "That wretched girl, she's going to kill me! That's Zhao Guangming! He's a wolf who eats people without spitting out the bones! How could she be so foolish, so despicable!"
The chickens in the yard were startled by the shout and flew around in all directions, and the big yellow dog also barked twice.
Seeing Aunt Hua's appearance, Li Xianglian felt bad.
"Auntie, don't cry."
Li Xianglian handed him a glass of water. "Crying won't help now. The most important thing is to find him. If this matter doesn't get out, and we only know about it in private, there's still a chance to salvage the situation."
"Yes...yes, find it!"
Aunt Hua, as if grasping at a straw, hastily wiped her face and struggled to her feet. "I'm going to find her right now! I'll block the Zhao family's door! I'm going to ask that old bastard Zhao Jianguo how he raised his son! How dare he seduce my innocent daughter!"
She wasn't afraid of losing face anymore; all she could think about was getting her daughter out of the mess.
When Li Xianglian heard that Aunt Hua was going to block the Zhao family's door, she was so frightened that she almost dropped the sewing basket in her hands.
This isn't a rescue mission; it's clearly a drive to Wang Chunyan's doom!
What kind of family is the Zhao family? They are the factory director of a textile factory, a prominent figure in the county, with security guards stationed at the main gate.
With Aunt Hua's outburst, whether it's true or not, Wang Chunyan's reputation as a "loose woman" is now firmly established, and she'll be the subject of endless gossip in the county.
"Auntie! This won't do!"
Li Xianglian grabbed Aunt Hua, who was about to rush out, and said, "If you go to the Zhao family's gate and make a scene, you're practically ripping Yanzi's face off and trampling on it! What kind of person is Zhao Guangming? He's a complete scoundrel! The more you make a scene, the less he'll admit anything. He might even turn around and accuse Yanzi of seducing him. How will Yanzi face anyone after that? How will she get married?"
Aunt Hua was stunned by the shout.
Although she wasn't very educated, she knew the weight of the saying "public opinion is a fearsome thing."
Just now, he was so angry that he lost his composure, but now that Li Xianglian stopped him, the broken string in his mind was slightly loosened.
"Then... what should I do?"
Aunt Hua was so frightened that her legs went weak and she could barely stand. "I can't just stand by and watch that beast abuse my daughter! He hasn't come back all night, who knows... who knows..."
"Don't go to the Zhao family's house yet, go to the guesthouse!"
Li Xianglian was quick-witted; at this point, she could only try to find the person and keep the shameful affair hidden under the covers.
"Go check those guesthouses in the east of the city. Look for that red motorcycle; you'll know where it is. Once you find her, don't make a scene. Take Yanzi home first. Fighting and arguing behind closed doors is a family matter; making a scene in the street will only make you a laughingstock!"
Upon hearing this, Aunt Hua grasped at a straw.
She scrambled to her feet, not even bothering to brush the dirt off her clothes, wiping away her tears and snot: "Yes! Find someone! Get that damned girl back first! If... if that beast really took advantage of her, I'll risk my life to make the Zhao family give me an explanation!"
After saying that, Aunt Hua stopped crying, and her protective instincts kicked in. She took big strides and ran outside.
She looked just like an angry lioness.
Watching Aunt Hua's departing figure, Li Xianglian sighed.
She turned around and went back into the house, tidied up the hair ties she had made last night and the remaining scraps of fabric, locked the door, and headed straight for Xiao Lan's house.
Now that the truth has been revealed, she felt uneasy staying at home alone, so she might as well go and discuss the matter of setting up her stall tonight with Xiao Lan.
Xiao Lan was sitting in the courtyard drawing her eyebrows in front of the mirror when Li Xianglian told her about it. She slammed her eyebrow pencil down on the table and gave a cold laugh.
"I knew that girl was brainless."
Xiao Lan picked up a small mirror and looked at herself, a mocking smile playing on her lips. "Zhao Guangming is the kind of guy who's used to eating meat. How could he not steal fish? Wang Chunyan offered herself up, it's like throwing a meat bun to a dog."
Last night, I saw those two hugging and cuddling outside the movie theater. Wang Chunyan practically clung to the man, her face beaming with desire. She wasn't being forced; she was clearly eager to please him.
