Quick Wear: The troublesome female supporting role was locked up by the boss and cried
Chapter 56 The Little Spy Around the Warlord (21)
“It is because of joining them that I truly feel that there is hope for the country.”
"Do you believe me? Chu Tang."
"It is a real organization that can bring new life to China."
Kang Jiaran spoke in a firm and powerful tone, his eyes fixed on Ji Chutang, wanting to see her reaction.
Ji Chutang acted very confused, but she didn't think there was anything wrong with Kang Jiaran's behavior. She didn't make random assertions, criticisms and accusations like those who didn't know the truth. She just remained silent, just like she quoted "The Analects" in her article - without knowing the full picture, she would not comment.
This made Kang Jiaran feel that this was a person with very good character.
Then she began to narrate the facts she had seen, and tentatively asked Ji Chutang if he was willing to join them.
Ji Chutang did not give an answer immediately.
It's not that she wants to take advantage of Joe, but it has to fit in with her character.
But she did not show much resistance, and she guessed from Kang Jiaran's narration that it was the Red Party organization.
She just smiled and said that she would keep it a secret for Kang Jiaran, but even so, she would not destroy their friendship.
The boat docked and the rain stopped without us noticing.
"I will always be grateful to you for saving my life on that rainy night."
He bowed slightly, took his umbrella and left.
Everything Kang Jiaran said today made Ji Chutang feel uneasy. She knew that the White Party and the Red Party, to which Gu Huaijin belonged, were hostile.
Reason told her that she should expose Kang Jiaran. She was Gu Huaijin's nominal sister and naturally stood on the side of the White Party.
But she didn't want to. She didn't want Kang Jiaran to be caught and thrown into the military government's prison. She didn't want the person who had saved her to be in danger because of her.
Most importantly, she knew that at this moment, the country was in the midst of internal and external troubles, and most of the warlord forces had been defeated. Those who were foresighted, like Gu Huaijin, escaped unscathed.
She also heard that the White Party betrayed the revolution and launched a white terror, in which countless compatriots died at the hands of their own people.
There are so many factions within the White Party that it is not a good choice.
After returning to the villa, Ji Chutang thought for a long time.
I was confused for a long time.
She didn't know what she should do, but from Kang Jiaran and others, she could see that it was a very good organization with many lovely and kind people like Kang Jiaran and others.
She would not expose them, but she had not decided whether to join them, so from then on, she always avoided Kang Jiaran.
Gu Huaijin hasn't returned to the villa recently.
Instead, he stayed in the former governor's mansion. As for the governor, his wife, and his children, they no longer dared to do anything naughty and lived their lives obediently.
Because the current situation is already very clear.
After knowing the ending of Ji Fuqing, those relatives of the Ji family no longer dared to set their sights on Ji Chutang. Now that the warlord had been defeated, they naturally returned to where they had come from in disgrace.
The person who had bullied Ji Chutang the most had been retaliated against by Gu Huaijin.
The governor was old, but Gu Huaijin did not touch him. He just let him go to a remote place in the governor's mansion to live out his retirement.
The former wife of the governor also got the retribution she deserved, and Gu Huaijin showed no mercy.
That day, Gu Huaijin sent someone to invite Ji Chutang back to Gu Mansion.
As soon as he returned, Ji Chutang realized something was wrong.
The Gu family was holding a banquet, saying it was to welcome a high-ranking official from Nanjing.
The senior official didn't see it, but Ji Chutang saw a willful young lady.
He dressed gorgeously and spoke proudly at the banquet.
As she spoke, her tone revealed her disdain for those who were of lower status than her.
Ji Chutang was just dressed casually, but she managed to overshadow the other rich and famous ladies who were dressed gorgeously.
This also includes Miss Chen who came from Nanjing.
This made Miss Chen unhappy. There was a hint of jealousy in her eyes. But when she saw Ji Chutang dressed in ordinary clothes, she couldn't help feeling proud.
A person who comes to a dinner party without even preparing a dress must not have a good family background. Even if she is beautiful, there is no possibility for her to marry into a wealthy family and become a rich wife.
Other socialites didn't dare to think so. They all knew Ji Chutang and knew her identity. No one dared to neglect her or show any dissatisfaction.
Only Miss Chen made sarcastic remarks when she saw Ji Chutang, which frightened the others.
"What kind of lady is this? She doesn't even know how to dress. It's really rude."
Miss Chen thought that others would agree with her words just like they had just flattered her, but unexpectedly, no one spoke, and there was complete silence, which made her a little annoyed.
Ji Chutang didn't want to pay attention to her. She could go back to her own home and do whatever she wanted. Did she need to care about other people's opinions?
So he just gave her a cold look.
Miss Chen was frightened by Ji Chutang's cold and emotionless eyes. Ji Chutang and Gu Huaijin had been together for a long time, so naturally their expressions and actions became somewhat similar.
Miss Chen was just a pampered young lady. She had never been treated like this before. When she realized that she was afraid of Ji Chutang, she immediately became angry and embarrassed.
After hearing the discussions around her, she knew Ji Chutang's identity. Before she came, she knew that Governor Gu had a adopted sister, an orphan who was extremely lucky.
Then he picked up the words that might poke someone's lungs and said that.
"How can you be so rude? Didn't your parents discipline you? You have no manners."
This is an aggressive statement.
Originally, Ji Chutang was not going to pay any attention to her and just let her bark.
Hearing this, a cold light flashed in his eyes. He stopped, turned sideways, and looked coldly at the outspoken Miss Chen.
She didn't want to argue with a brainless person, but this person was just a jerk and came up to her to get beaten.
Ji Chutang didn't indulge her either.
He took two steps forward and slapped Miss Chen hard with a loud and crisp slap, which stunned Miss Chen. The others saw it and were just glad that they didn't provoke Ji Chutang.
Miss Chen was extremely dissatisfied with the slap. She opened her eyes wide and wanted to say something.
Ji Chutang said coldly: "The mouth is the source of trouble. This lady is outspoken. I don't mind teaching you a lesson on behalf of your parents."
"Ahhhhh!!!" The scream sounded like an air raid sirens.
The system couldn't help but complain: [I think there are screaming chickens here too. ]
This situation naturally attracted the attention of others.
Including Gu Huaijin and the official surnamed Chen.
Gu Huaijin rushed over, selectively blind, and walked towards Ji Chutang, the worry on his face not seeming fake: "What's wrong, what's wrong, Tangtang is okay, you are not hurt."
Gu Huaijin's attitude stunned everyone else.
I know he dotes on me, but why is he so indiscriminate about right and wrong? This naked, unreasonable favoritism is really enviable.
When Staff Officer Chen found out that it was Ji Chutang who beat his niece, his face turned extremely ugly. He only had this one niece, and after her brother passed away, he had been raising her by his side and treating her like his own daughter.
He also knew that his niece was a little spoiled, but in his opinion, it was just a little temper of a little girl and could be tolerated completely.
Today, on behalf of Mr. Hu, he went to Lucheng to win over Gu Huaijin. Thinking that Gu Huaijin was a handsome man and a rare talent, he brought his niece along, hoping to establish a marriage relationship between them.
However, at this banquet, Gu Huaijin's adopted sister beat his niece in public. Wasn't this just a show of power to Chen?
Immediately, his tone was cold: "Gu Huaijin, you should know the current situation and be sensible. It's OK to keep some non-blood-related ones for fun, but don't ruin the big things for this."
This was obviously a threat, asking Gu Huaijin to give up a sister who was not related by blood and make amends to his niece.
But Gu Huaijin turned a deaf ear to it.
He just called someone over and asked him to listen to the whole process.
His face suddenly turned cold, and he looked at Ji Chutang with anger and heartache.
Then he sneered, he was just a chief of staff, a guy who was relying on the power of others to bully others. Even if Hu Zhiping came, Gu Huaijin would not give him face if he said so. Who was Chen Yu?
He immediately ordered: "Come here, send the guests away."
"Staff Officer Chen, who has no manners, should be disciplined. Otherwise, I don't mind taking care of him for you."
Exactly the same attitude as Ji Chutang.
This level of protecting one's own shortcomings has reached a new high.
