Time Travel: Female Cannon Fodder of the Republic of China

"Alan, the incident at the Majestic Hotel was reported in the newspaper yesterday. I was scolded so much that I dare not go out to school."

Alan only reads international current affairs newspapers, so he didn't know that what happened in Dahua yesterday was reported in Shanghai's industry newspapers.

"What did they scold you for?"

Ai Shutong: "It wasn't just me, Teacher Shen and Huang Lanying were also scolded."

"They didn't say much about you, Mary and Henry. They are obviously picking on the weak!"

Allen: "I'll call Shen right away and tell him to be more careful."

The two chatted for a few more sentences, and Allen said that he would find a way to calm the situation and asked Ai Shutong to stay at home and not run around, so as not to be hurt by someone who was not in his right mind.

Ai Shutong responded, "Okay."

You have to know that there are many angry young people in the concession. They are young and impulsive. Don't really kill her as a traitor, otherwise she will die unjustly.

What Ai Shutong didn't know was that her classmate Tang E didn't go to school either, but instead was scolding her in a small teahouse.

"I was so blind! I thought there would be some potential for development with Ai Shutong, but I didn't expect she was a traitor!"

Huang Shan stared at the half of Ai Shutong's body on the newspaper, "You are such a beautiful woman, why do you become a thief!"

Tang E grabbed the newspaper and threw it aside. "What's the use of her being pretty? She is a traitor and our enemy."

Huang Shan: "Then you should be careful at school, don't let her find out your identity!"

Tang E sneered, "Just her?"

Huang Shan: "Don't underestimate anyone, or you will be the one who suffers!"

Throughout the morning, Ai Shutong received various calls, including from Ina and Zheng Qiuying who cared about her.

Jessica and Lin Manru were there to get information. Lin Manru was her classmate at Zhongxi Girls' High School, but unfortunately she got married right after graduation.

There was also Tang E who took pleasure in her misfortune and called to mock her...

She couldn't even eat her lunch and kept pacing back and forth like an ant on a hot pan.

Xia Yu comforted her, "It's okay, Miss. Shanghai always has big news coming out every once in a while, and it will definitely overshadow this incident!"

Ai Shutong: "I don't want this matter to fade away, but I want to get rid of the stigma of being a traitor."

In the afternoon, two Pontiacs arrived at No. 15 Zhaoqing Bay. Alan, Henry and Shen Jiaxing got out of the cars. Ai Shutong wanted to take them back to the house, but was stopped by Li Zhong.

"Miss, why don't you go to my place? I have tea, coffee, and cigars. It's more suitable for entertaining guests."

Ai Shutong knew that Li Zhong was the only one in the east room on the first floor. Since she wouldn't disturb anyone else, she nodded in agreement.

After the four of them sat down, Li Zhong first made them a pot of tea, served them two plates of snacks, and asked them to enjoy their meals while he went to the kitchen to make coffee.

Shen Jiaxing glanced at Ai Shutong embarrassedly, "Shutong, I'm so sorry for getting you into trouble."

Ai Shutong raised her hand to stop him, "Forget about the apology, let's solve the problem first!"

Henry raised his voice and said, "Don't be afraid, Ai. I will send someone to call these newspapers and tell them not to publish it again."

Alan gave him a displeased look and said, "Just be quiet for a while! If it were that simple, I would have sent someone to say hello a long time ago."

"There must be someone behind this!"

"Where else did that photo come from?"

Shen Jiaxing: "I guess it was provided by someone inside Dahua. They may not dare to confront you head-on, but they are unwilling to suspend business for rectification, so they use us as a scapegoat!"

"I shouldn't have brought Huang Lanying with me yesterday. She is the troublemaker!"

Ai Shutong: "Why are you so rude to your fiancée?!"

Shen Jiaxing looked like he had a headache, but Allen could still laugh under such circumstances. Ai Shutong looked at him coldly, "Mr. Allen, the knife didn't cut you, so it doesn't hurt, right?"

Allen quickly waved his hands and explained, "Ai, don't be angry, I just laughed because I thought Shen was so funny."

Shen Jiaxing looked at him with dissatisfaction, "Is there anyone who takes pleasure in other people's misfortunes as much as you?"

Allen said rudely: "I will write a letter to your mortal enemy Eric and tell him that you are forced by your family to marry a woman with bound feet."

"Eric might be happy to come from England to attend your wedding."

Shen Jiaxing sneered: "I only love my country and my students. I want to devote myself to them!"

"It is impossible to really marry Huang Lanying."

Allen: "Then why did you come back from Beijing? This is your family's base camp, you can't beat them here!"

Shen Jiaxing: "How dare you ask me why I came back? It was you, with your big mouth, who leaked my whereabouts!"

Allen was not convinced by this. "How did I leak it? I just chatted with your brother-in-law at the banquet and found that we knew the same person."

"I talked to him a little more out of love for you. Was I wrong?"

Shen Jiaxing looked at him with disgust, "Can you please stop talking so disgustingly? We are just ordinary classmates."

"And Huang Jinyu is not my brother-in-law!"

Alan threw his gentleman's hat at Shen Jiaxing's face. Shen Jiaxing subconsciously tried to block it. Alan immediately seized the opportunity and stepped forward to grab his neck.

"Say I'm your best friend!"

Henry couldn't stand it and rolled his eyes. "I know you have a good relationship, but can you please stop showing off your affection in front of a lonely person like me?"

Ai Shutong added: "Those who show off their affection will die quickly!"

Shen Jiaxing struggled to pull Allen's hand away, "Stop it, I give up!"

Ai Shutong said anxiously: "Let's talk business! I still want to go to school tomorrow!"

Shen Jiaxing: "I also want to go to school tomorrow."

Ai Shutong asked him, "Aren't you a PhD student in the UK? What classes are you taking? Did you fake your academic qualifications?"

Shen Jiaxing rolled his eyes like her and said, "I am now a teacher at Aurora University, and I teach my students."

Ai Shutong looked at him speechlessly, "You are a teacher, but you can't even speak clearly."

Shen Jiaxing: "Ai Shutong! Can you please respect your teacher a little more?"

Ai Shutong retorted: "You have caused me so much trouble that I dare not even leave the house. How can I respect my teacher? I want to betray my teacher and ancestors!"

Shen Jiaxing looked away guiltily, "I brought Huang Lanying there yesterday because I wanted you to help me. How can I cancel the engagement?"

"You saw yesterday that we are not from the same world. If we force ourselves to go to another world, the end of the world will greet us."

Ai Shutong: "She is a woman with bound feet. After being divorced, is there any way for her to survive?"

"I heard that many women with bound feet were educated with feudal ideas. They believe in obeying their fathers at home and their husbands after marriage. If you don't want her, she might commit suicide!"

But Shen Jiaxing sneered, "Others might, but Huang Lanying won't. She doesn't want to marry me either. She and her cousin have been together for a long time!"
