Time Travel: Female Cannon Fodder of the Republic of China

This was beyond Ai Shutong's expectations, but when she thought of what Jin Minfan had said before, she felt as if she had suddenly realized something.

Everyone has his or her own thoughts. Some people are willing to be bound, while others will resist.

But in the end, they will all regret it, just like what is written in Fortress Besieged: those inside want to get out, and those outside want to get in.

Ai Shutong: "Then why not just cancel the engagement and let them both be together?"

As for the issue of close relatives marrying and causing deformed children, that is not something outsiders like them should worry about!

Shen Jiaxing wiped his face and said, "It's not that easy. Our two families have business dealings. To put it nicely, it's called an alliance. To put it bluntly, it's called selling off one's children."

"I fled to Beijing before, thinking that the marriage would be cancelled, but who could have known that she would use me as a shield because she was secretly dating her cousin, saying that she would wait for me!"

"My parents were so touched that when they heard that I was teaching at Peking University, they sent someone to bring me back."

Having said that, he kicked Alan hard.

"It's all this guy's fault!"

After Shen Jiaxing's narration, Ai Shutong learned that Shen Jiaxing and Huang Lanying came from a large landlord family in the Jiangsu and Zhejiang areas.

Now he can also be said to be a big capitalist.

The two families not only owned thousands of acres of fertile land, but also oil mills, wine shops, and grain stores. In recent years, they also invested in a number of emerging industries in Shanghai, such as real estate, cinemas, and theaters.

After hearing this, Ai Shutong couldn't help but look at him.

Shen Jiaxing felt slightly uncomfortable, "What?"

Ai Shutong: "You are so stingy, I can't believe you are a rich second generation!"

Shen Jiaxing glared at him, "How am I stingy? Did I skip treating you guys to dinner?!"

"Besides, because I was disobedient, my parents stopped providing for me. Now I have to support myself!"

Ai Shutong slapped her thigh and said, "It's settled now. You earn your living on your own ability, without using your parents' money. Why do you have to listen to them?"

Shen Jiaxing retorted: "Don't be so self-righteous. You can also be self-reliant. Didn't you still not make decisions for yourself in the Jin Mansion before?!"

"You asked me for help then, and I did. Now I'm in trouble, and you can't just stand by and watch me die!"

Ai Shutong quickly comforted him, "Save him, of course I will save him. Whoever says I won't save him will be angry with me!"

"Tell me how to save you?"

Shen Jiaxing stroked his hair twice in annoyance.

“I haven’t decided on it yet!”

Ai Shutong looked at him with contempt, "A grown man, you don't even have any ideas!"

Shen Jiaxing: "You can do it, you are awesome, if you have the ability, can you give me some advice?!"

Ai Shutong: "If it were me, I would definitely continue to run away!"

"Come back in a few years when you have a beautiful wife and a young child. I don't believe the Huang family will marry their daughter to you!"

Shen Jiaxing sighed helplessly, "I have a younger sister who is just fifteen years old this year. My parents have already chosen a husband for her, but I don't agree."

"They said that if I agreed to marry Huang Lanying, they would cancel my sister's engagement!"

Ai Shutong: "Yeah? Why do I feel like your parents treat you as commodities?"

Shen Jiaxing: "Aren't all parents like this?"

"You talk as if your parents don't treat you as a commodity!"

"I think my parents are much better than yours. At least they didn't make my sister a concubine."

Ai Shutong: "Shen Jiaxing, I'm warning you! Don't hit people in the face, and don't expose their shortcomings when you scold them. Be careful or I'll get angry!"

Shen Jiaxing continued without knowing whether to live or die: "You are the only one who can criticize me, can't I refute it?"

Ai Shutong picked up Henry's gentleman's hat and threw it at him, "You really deserve a beating! Don't forget, it's you who needs our help now."

"Be careful or I'll be an ungrateful person!"

Shen Jiaxing immediately shut up, but thought to himself, the ancients were right, it’s only women and villains that are difficult to raise.

Alan and Henry felt much better after watching the show.

Henry advised without thinking: "Ai, calm down and don't argue with Shen."

"Shen, calm down and don't bother with Ai."

Ai Shutong and Shen Jiaxing turned to look at him at the same time, "Which side are you from?"

Henry spread his hands and said helplessly: "You two are my friends, I have to help you!"

Allen looked at him with a sly look and glared at him, "Okay, stop arguing and let's get down to business!"

Shen Jiaxing felt that there was a mastermind behind this, and that person should be someone from the Dahua Hotel. He should go talk to the boss of Dahua.

Henry, however, felt that this man was so vicious that if they took the initiative to approach him, they would definitely suffer.

After thinking it over, Allen said, "Does anyone here know someone at the newspaper? You can ask who provided the information and photos."

Ai Shutong: "I know the president of the Baihuawen Newspaper, but their newspaper did not publish this news today."

Shen Jiaxing: "Let me do it! I know the deputy editor-in-chief of the United Daily News."

After Shen Jiaxing made the call, he brought them some unfortunate news. It was Dahua's boss Du Rixiao who provided the news and photos to the United Daily News.

This man is a ruthless character. He was born in poverty, but he built up a large industry with his own hands. He is involved in both black and white businesses. Everyone who sees him calls him "Master Du".

Allen was not surprised. "Dahua is his business. If we ask them to stop business and rectify, it will definitely infringe on his interests."

"It is only right for him to teach him a lesson."

Ai Shutong cursed, "Bullshit!"

The three men looked at her with wide eyes. Ai Shutong did not hold back. She slammed the table with her hands, "I didn't do anything. Why do you call me a traitor and a running dog? F**k me!"

"He obviously thinks that Ellen, Mary and Henry are British and he is doing business in the concession, so it's not easy to offend them!"

"A big boss who stepped on the Chinese to rise to power naturally thinks that the weak Chinese can't do anything to him!"

Shen Jiaxing had never seen Ai Shutong like this before. She seemed to be mad with anger.

"So what do you say we should do? Of the three of us, you're the most anxious to get out."

Ai Shutong: "Let him change his words and clarify in the newspaper!"

Henry: "He's not a fool, how could he change his words automatically?"

Ai Shutong quickly made plans in her mind.

After a moment, he looked at the three tall men in front of him and said, "Alan, collect information on all of Du Rixiao's industries."

"Henry contacted the Municipal Council and asked them to extend the closure of the Majestic Hotel."

"Teacher Shen, please find out about Du Rixiao's interpersonal relationships and daily schedule."

Seeing that the three men were still staring at her, Ai Shutong continued, "Don't worry! I won't be idle either. I will write a new news article about yesterday's incident."

"The key point is the service attitude of the Indian waiters at the Majestic Hotel."

"After writing it, I will sign my name as Baron Henry. Then I will have to trouble Mr. Shen to contact the deputy editor-in-chief of the United Daily News. I will also contact the Vernacular New News for publication."

The four of them immediately split up and took action.

Two hours later, Ai Shutong had finished writing the news.

She focused on the service attitude of the waiters at the Dahua Hotel, saying that the food at the Dahua Hotel was not cheap, and that she spent a lot of money to buy the service but did not receive the service of the same price.
