Chapter 21 Fiancé

Su Qingyue looked at Pei Huaiye's inquiring and self-deprecating eyes, and her heart suddenly became a little flustered.

Before she could even open her mouth, Shen Xunbao came rushing over, "Qingyue, are you okay?"

Shen Xunbao spoke with concern and put his coat on Su Qingyue's shoulders.

Pei Huaiye was silent, turned around and left, his lonely figure lost in the crowd.

There were too many people around, and her elder brother and sister-in-law had already sensed something was wrong when Pei Huaiye questioned her just now. Now, for the sake of her reputation, she didn't dare to explain to Pei Huaiye in public.

Su Qingyue originally wanted to wait until she broke off the engagement with Shen Xunbao before talking to Pei Huaiye about this matter, but she didn't expect such a mess to happen.

Thinking of this, Su Qingyue became very depressed.

She took off her coat and gave it back to Shen Xunbao, "I don't want to wear it, thank you."

Shen Xunbao was rejected in public, and his face was a little embarrassed, "Then I'll take you back."

Su Qingyue just had something to say to him alone, "Okay, brother and sister-in-law, you go back first. I'll be home later."

Su Qingwu stared at Shen Xunbao and said, "No, after we get home, let the two of you talk for a while in front of the door. Now we will go back together."

Li Zilan also advised her in this way, so Su Qingyue had no choice but to go with her sister-in-law.

The people of Shuangshui Village gathered around the Su family and pricked up their ears to listen to gossip, but they just kept silent. They thought it was meaningless and dispersed.

When I got home, Li Zilan said at the door, "Come back early."

Su Qingyue nodded, she looked at Shen Xunbao and said, "Have you thought about it? I want to write a letter to cancel the engagement."

"I disagree!"

"If you don't like me, why do you want to marry me?"

"But we have been engaged since childhood, Qingyue. I am not used to rural life and I have neglected your feelings recently. I will definitely treat you well in the future. Please don't cancel the engagement, okay?"

As Shen Xunbao spoke, he tried to pull Su Qingyue's hand. However, she was a woman after all, and there was a huge difference in strength between them, so she was unable to pull her hand away immediately.

From the moment Pei Huaiye found out that Su Qingyue had a fiancé, he felt like his heart was being twisted. He walked numbly to the door of the Su family, wanting to ask Su Qingyue what he had been doing these days.

As soon as I turned the corner, I saw Shen Xunbao holding Su Qingyue's hand.

Those white, tender and soft little hands had been used to touch him randomly because she was drugged, had been held in his hands and applied medicine because she was injured, and had been clenched into pink fists and hit him because of a misunderstanding.

Now these slender white fingers are held by another man, her fiancé.

He wanted to go up and beat the man up, but he was not in a position to do so.

Pei Huaiye forced a self-deprecating laugh and turned away.

Su Qingyue struggled to free her hands while whispering angrily, "Shen Xunbao, let go! I know you don't like women at all!"

Boom!
Shen Xunbao let go of his hand, his face pale.

He was so shocked that Su Qingyue learned the truth that he did not refute her for a while.

Su Qingyue continued: "I promise not to tell anyone, but you can't sacrifice me and marry you for your own sake. It's not fair to me."

Shen Xunbao moved his lips for a long time before asking, "Do your parents know?"

Su Qingyue swore to the sky, "I didn't tell anyone! Besides, if they knew, they would definitely not agree to this marriage."

Shen Xunbao's eyes narrowed together under his glasses, "Commander Shen and your parents in the capital don't agree to cancel the engagement rashly."

Su Qingyue turned her head away and said, “As long as you agree, I will tell them that I have a lover and we are not suitable.

Just say you don't like me.

They don’t want to see two people who don’t like each other getting married.”

Shen Xunbao was in a daze, "Give me some time, I'll think about it."

"Then reply me as soon as possible."

When Su Qingyue returned to the Su family, Su Mingqiang, Su Qingwu and Li Zilan were waiting for her in the main hall. Su Qingxi and Su Zhuangzhuang sneaked their heads out of the side room.

Su Qingyue took a sip of water and cleared her throat. "The engagement with Shen Zhiqing was arranged by my adoptive parents, but we don't like each other. We have already discussed breaking off the engagement."

Li Zilan and Su Qingwu looked at each other and then looked at Su Mingqiang together.

Su Mingqiang put down the enamel pot and said, "Yue, Dad is old and doesn't have much ability. We think Shen Zhiqing is handsome and has a good family background.

But since you don't like it, then cancel the engagement. After you returned to the village, many people proposed marriage, but you rejected them all.

You will be eighteen next month, and it’s time to think about the big things in life.

If you have someone you like, Dad won't stop you, but you have to have good character!"

Li Zilan said, "Dad, Qingyue is still young, there is no need to rush, we have to slowly pick a good one.

The most anxious ones right now are Su Qianqian and Zhou Wenfang, these two are not easy to deal with. "

Su Qingwu had a stern look on his face, "Su Qianqian has gone too far!"

"If she really broke the law, the police should handle it as they should! People have to pay for their actions! Let's stay out of it."

Su Mingqiang's eyes became moist after he finished speaking. After all, Su Qianqian was their family's adopted daughter who had been raised for seventeen years, so there must be affection between them.

But ever since she found out that she was a city dweller, she has completely changed.

Now, just because of jealousy, Su Qingyue teamed up with outsiders to deliberately harm her own daughter. Su Mingqiang could not accept it either emotionally or logically.

Li Zilan said in fear: "If Pei Huaiye hadn't arrived just in time, I wouldn't dare to imagine what would have happened to Qingyue."

"Okay, Qingyue, go and have a rest. From now on, you should catch the bus back to the village after get off work. I will pick you up at the entrance of the village."

After Su Qingwu finished speaking, Li Zilan smiled with relief and urged Su Qingyue to go back to her room to sleep.

When Su Qingyue closed her eyes, all she could see in her dreams was Pei Huaiye's look of disbelief and disappointment.

So many things happened today that Shen Xunbao couldn't sleep at all.

He quietly got up and left the Youth League Home, only to see a man in a hat climbing over the wall.

Qiao Wang was so nervous that he dared not move, but when he saw it was Shen Xunbao, he jumped down immediately.

Shen Xunbao was sweating profusely, "Are you sick? Why are you climbing over the wall?"

Qiao Wang pulled the man into the field and said with suppressed anger: "Do you think I have it easy? I lost my letter of introduction and was almost arrested.

You haven't been to the county town, so I can only come to the village to find you."

Shen Xunbao said: "The team leader requires that you accumulate 100 work points before you can apply to build a house for yourself.

I want to move out of the boys' dormitory as soon as possible. I'm busy earning work points every day and don't have time to run around.

Where are you and what are you doing now?"

"I sent a telegram to my father. Now I have a letter of introduction. I have rented a room and am writing for the newspaper to earn money."

After Qiao Wang finished speaking, he stuffed the note with the address into Shen Xunbao's shirt pocket and said, "Tell me, how are you doing recently?"

Shen Xunbao briefly explained how Su Qianqian and Zhou Wenfang framed Su Qingyue, and said that Su Qingyue had already seen that he no longer liked women and wanted to cancel the engagement.

Qiao Wang narrowed his eyes and said, "It's better to withdraw. After all, she is not Su's biological daughter. I can't rely on her in the future."

Shen Xunbao pinched his brows and said, "Su Qianqian is interested in me, but she is in trouble now, I am afraid..."

Qiao Wang smiled mysteriously, the black mole on his right ear was very obvious in the moonlight, "Then don't let anything happen to her."

"Do you have any idea?"

Qiao Wang held out his hand for money, "I'll take care of Su Qianqian's affairs, don't worry about it. Get ready, I'll come to take your place in two days."

Shen Xunbao handed over a dozen Great Unity coupons and 200 kilograms of food coupons. Qiao Wang curled his lips and mocked silently, saying that he was worthy of being Young Master Shen, and his treatment was so different from his.

Qiao Wang climbed over the wall and left. He returned to the house and immediately wrote the content of the telegram.

He squatted at the door of the post office before dawn, and as soon as the door opened, he immediately filled out the telegram form.

The postman quoted, "Seven cents a character, a total of 120 characters, comrade, you need to pay eight dollars and forty cents."

Qiao Wang handed over the money and said, "Hello, how long will it take to get to the capital?"

"About four hours. Take the receipt. It has the postal number on it."

Qiao Wang held the certificate and prayed silently that the telegram would reach the Su family in the capital as soon as possible.
