Chapter 34 Compromise, Marrying into the Family

In order to prevent Old Man Gu from favoring Gu Jianing, Wen Zhuqing handed the paper to the village secretary.

"What I just said is written on this paper. You can compare it with Gu Jianing's handwriting and you'll know."

Bao Shanyan frowned as she looked at the note, wondering whether she should try to snatch it. If her and Gu Jianing's plan failed, she wouldn't have an easy time either.

But in an instant, she rejected the idea.

That was caused by Gu Jianing; she had warned Gu Jianing before not to leave any evidence against her.

If Wen Zhuqing still manages to find fault with him, then Gu Jianing is simply being foolish.

Moreover, even if Gu Jianing is exposed, she can deny her relationship and plans with Gu Jianing.

but……

Bao Shanyan glanced at Gu Jianing and saw that the latter was calm. She wondered if there was some hidden meaning in this. Gu Jianing was stupid before, but she seemed to have become smarter after she was pulled out of the river last time.

perhaps……

Like Bao Shanyan, everyone's eyes were drawn to the piece of paper that the village secretary had taken.

Old Man Gu also had some doubts. Wen Zhiqing spoke with such certainty, could it really have been written by his daughter?

As her father, he knew that his daughter had genuinely liked Wen Zhiqing before.

To be honest, the village secretary, who was being watched by everyone, was also a little uneasy.

However, he still slowly unfolded the paper.

The village party secretary's expression changed the moment it was opened.

His expression was hard to describe; it was rather strange and hard to understand.

Old Gu, who was standing next to him, went over to take a look. He was surprised to see that the man was also the village secretary, and his expression turned strange.

“Village Party Secretary, is what’s written on there the same as what Wen, the educated youth, said?”

"Is that Gu Jianing's handwriting?"

“Village Party Secretary, you can’t protect Gu Jianing just because she’s your relative.”

"Yeah yeah."

The educated youth shouted and clamored.

The village party secretary's face darkened as he looked at the clamoring educated youth.

These people used to complain about being tired and overworked, but now it seems they're quite loud. With such a loud voice, it's clear they're in good health.

After that, we can assign them more tasks.

After all, they made such a good promise, saying they were coming to the countryside to build, so how could we not give them a chance to do a good job?

The village secretary snorted coldly, unfolded the paper, and handed it to Wen Zhuqing. "Wen, you probably just think I'm old and are trying to fool me with a random piece of paper, right? There's nothing written on it."

"Everyone, take a look. There's nothing on this paper."

The educated youth looked over immediately and indeed both sides were blank, without a single word.

At this moment, the most incredulous person was Wen Zhuqing, who finally showed signs of panic.

He took the paper and looked at it repeatedly, from afar and up close, but no matter how he looked at it, there wasn't a single word, not even a trace of writing.

"How is this possible, how is this possible!"

For a moment, Wen Zhuqing even wondered if receiving the note yesterday was just a hallucination.

Mingming, when I opened this note yesterday, it was covered in writing, clearly Gu Jianing's handwriting. How come all those words have disappeared now?

What exactly happened? Oh right, there's something wrong with this note. And what about the handkerchief that was drugged and used to cover him?

Wen Zhuqing handed the handkerchief that belonged to Bao Shanyan to Old Zhang, who happened to arrive at the scene.

"Uncle Zhang, could you please take a look? There must still be medicine residue on this handkerchief, right?"

Bao Shanyan raised an eyebrow. She had thrown the handkerchief on the ground after covering Wen Zhuqing's face, but unexpectedly, Wen Zhuqing had picked it up.

It must be said that even when she was tricked into losing her virginity, Wen Zhuqing remained frighteningly rational and still remembered to use the handkerchief as evidence.

However, Bao Shanyan was not worried at this time.

Especially after that piece of paper, which might have had Gu Jianing's handwriting on it, became blank.

She knew it must have been Gu Jianing who did it.

Therefore, Gu Jianing could not possibly leave any evidence against this handkerchief.

In fact, this is indeed the case.

Old Zhang took the handkerchief, first carefully examined it, then sniffed it, and then said, "Wen Zhiqing, I'm sorry, I didn't see or smell any trace of drug residue on it."

"You can also take a look and smell it."

The people around them also took it.

This handkerchief looks clean; there are no other marks on it, and it doesn't smell bad.

When the handkerchief returned to Wen Zhuqing's hands, looking at the clean handkerchief without a single impurity, Wen Zhuqing knew that his defense had failed, and his so-called evidence simply did not exist.

His shoulders slumped down, as if he had lost all his strength in an instant.

Bao Shanyan's eyes lit up, and she gave her mother a look.

Bao Yingzi immediately understood, put her hands on her hips, and exuded a powerful aura, "Everyone saw it, this Wen Zhiqing said that Gu Jia's girl and my daughter plotted against him, but he can't produce any evidence at all. We can't just make a decision based on his words."

"I don't care, Wen Zhiqing, I just want one word from you right now."

"Are you going to marry into our Bao family, or do I have to call the police and sue the commune for being a hooligan? You decide."

Those educated youth dared not utter a word after hearing this.

There was nothing he could do; it was a fact that Wen Zhuqing had bullied Bao Shanyan and had been caught red-handed. He couldn't produce any evidence, so he was just unlucky.

Wen Zhuqing lowered her head, her hands clenching tightly around her handkerchief. After a long while, she finally managed to squeeze out three words through gritted teeth, "I will marry into your family."

Bao Yingzi was satisfied, and Bao Shanyan was also happy.

"That's it. I think three days from now is a good date. Let's set it for three days from now."

"Everyone, come and join the feast! It's my daughter Yanzi and her husband Wen's wedding banquet!"

As Bao Shanyan joyfully invited everyone to the banquet, no one noticed the scarlet eyes beneath Wen Zhuqing's lowered head.

Today is the most humiliating moment of Wen Zhuqing's life.

He chose to compromise temporarily, but he will not compromise forever. When the time is right, he will return everything to his former self.

Seeing that the excitement was over, the villagers all left.

Gu Jianing also wanted to leave with Sheng Zexi, but unexpectedly, Wen Zhuqing quickly came to her.

A pair of reddened eyes stared intently at her. "Gu Jianing, tell me, how did you manage to do this note and this handkerchief?"

Gu Jianing was startled by Wen Zhuqing's sudden obstruction and her reddened eyes. Sheng Zexi quickly pulled her behind him, and they faced Wen Zhuqing.

Standing over 1.9 meters tall, even taller than Wen Zhuqing who was 1.8 meters, Sheng Zexi looked down at Wen Zhuqing with narrowed eyes, his gaze dangerous. "Young educated youth, what do you intend to do to my wife?"
