Even though Gu Junming was smiling, the threat in his words was unmistakable.
Zhuang Lin’s face instantly turned red: "I didn’t think that far. Don’t tell him, okay!" Really cold and ruthless to a delicate young girl, but if her own husband were like this, it would be great.
She was worried that Gu Junming would complain to her husband, and instantly became docile.
Wan Yunhong’s face, however, turned pale long ago, unable to hide the hatred in front of her.
Originally, she intended to come at this time, to get a free meal, and with the sky darkening, either stay at their home for the night or have Gu Junming lend her a car to take her back, right on time for spreading rumors about Gu Junming spending time alone with her.
Anyway, she definitely wasn’t going to return empty-handed, but who knew Gu Junming could be so harsh, speaking such unpleasant words, and even wanting to drive her away!
Wan Yunhong bit her lip and said, "Why are you treating me like this? I’m still from your village, we were fine last time. But I don’t blame you." She timidly glanced in the direction of Sun Chan’s room.
The implication being, you’re afraid of your wife, that’s why you’re treating me like this, it’s all her fault.
Gu Junming didn’t know her intention, but seeing her act so pitifully he became irritated, calmly saying, "Hurry back, our family is quite busy, and we can’t entertain you. If there’s anything, just call, but my position is limited, it’s unlikely I can help you much. Since you managed to get into medical corps, you’re definitely stronger than us, you absolutely don’t need our help."
Wan Yunhong couldn’t hide her anger in her eyes: "We are all from the same village!"
"I’m from the same village as Su Miao too! Such matters should really be avoided if possible," Gu Junming said coldly.
After experiencing the matter with Su Miao, Gu Junming hated when people used the village connection to play up familiarity. A village has over a hundred households, if I have to take care of everyone, wouldn’t I go crazy?
Moreover, who knows what Wan Yunhong is pondering!
Listening to his words, Wan Yunhong half acting, half humiliated, began to sob with hiccups.
"Don’t be like this, the young girl didn’t say much, you are kind-hearted too." Zhuang Lin joked.
Gu Junming didn’t speak, just looked at Wan Yunhong.
Wan Yunhong sobbed: "I just came to see you, do you really have to chase me away like this?"
She was pretty to begin with, and now crying like this, she looked even more pitiful, yet she couldn’t move Gu Junming even the slightest, he calmly said: "You may feel I’m being a bit excessive, but I’m doing this for her good. So many people ignore boundaries, resulting in various rumors, losing face entirely. Previous cases like Bai Fanglan, upstairs neighbor Ai Mei, and Wang Hu’s incident, aren’t those lessons enough? Our compound is notorious now. I’m just taking precautions, can’t let our compound continue being tarnished. You have such a promising future ahead, I don’t want you caught up in trivial matters."
Zhuang Lin hurriedly said: "Indeed, last time there was a nurse who joked with Liu Hu, happened to be seen by his wife, caused a huge scene, later the nurse seemingly resigned."
"Yes, that’s what worries me most, your parents worked hard to raise you, take care of yourself."
Sun Chan came out at this moment: "No matter what, Wan Yunhong is still an unmarried girl, if unfavorable words spread, we can’t be responsible for her life. Precisely because we’re from the same village, we act this way, hope Wan Yunhong understands our good intentions."
"..." Zhuang Lin was speechless, for the first time discovering Sun Chan had such eloquence.
Gu Junming wasn’t bothered: "Who cares what such people think, we better avoid contact."
"Hmm. But what if rumors spread, how will you handle it?" Sun Chan asked seriously.
Gu Junming smiled, pinching her chin: "I don’t mind. Just idle gossip, what can it do? Don’t worry about me."
"Wash your hands, we’ll eat soon. I’ve prepared delicious food."
Of course Sun Chan wouldn’t just eat these, she bought cooked beef, prepared for Gu Junming, also made fried eggs, spinach soup, and the steamed buns were slightly scorched. It was quite appetizing. She put a small bowl in front of Gu Junming.
"These are crab roe that Guihua gave us before. Quite tasty!"
Gu Junming laughed: "I’ve had it in the south once, it was indeed delicious. You have some too."
Sun Chan patted her tummy: "I’ll pass, wait till after the baby is born."
The couple was fine, sitting together chatting and laughing, eating.
However, Wan Yunhong was outside about to go crazy! She stood on the street crying non-stop. The aggrieved tears couldn’t be stopped.
Since she became a medical corps member and came to the city, so many have shown hospitality? Looking so pretty, pursued since childhood, who knew Gu Junming would reject her like this, especially in front of others, soon it would spread throughout the compound. When that happens, it’s her who’ll be embarrassed!
