Chapter 28: Bow and apologize
"You're getting old enough to play tricks on me."

Guan Yuemei grabbed her son who was about to leave and slapped him: "What's the situation? Explain it clearly. Don't play tricks on me."

"It means we have won it and the relationship has been confirmed."

Chen Fan laughed and took his mother's hand: "She will be back on Friday, go home on Saturday, and come to our house for dinner on Sunday. You can make the arrangements."

Guan Yuemei said happily: "Finally I have made some progress. I have to make good arrangements. Don't you have a friend who deals in bills? Go get some candy and cake bills."

"I'll buy some fruits later and prepare a fruit plate. As for the chicken, duck, fish and meat, you can buy them on the same day, otherwise they won't be fresh and the girls will have to pick on them."

"It's the first time a girl comes home, so we need to prepare gifts..."

Okay, I’m crazy about looking forward to having a daughter-in-law!

Chen Fan shook his head and walked away. How worried is my mother that I will remain single?
As for?
I am only eighteen, not twenty-eight.

However, since it was Xu Jinqiu's first time to eat at home, he really couldn't treat her badly. After Chen Fan put his things away, he went out to find Li Qiang to get some tickets.

We also went to the state-owned restaurant at the entrance of the alley and drank for the whole afternoon.

When I got home, I was already a little tipsy. I lay down on the bed and slept till the next morning. When I woke up, I felt weak and uncomfortable all over.

"Don't drink any more!"

The morning exercise that I had never interrupted even when going to Sanhe was stopped for a whole day.

However, Chen Fan still went out and bought a copy of People's Daily at the newsstand. He saw his article in the social section: To be a moral person, start by refusing moral kidnapping.

Chen Fan read it carefully. Apart from modifying some words, the content was basically not deleted. Lao Li was still very helpful.

Maybe it’s because of the “victim” reason.

Lao Li's middle-aged Mediterranean appearance is often teased by others, and he is often morally blackmailed when he wants to lose his temper.

After another day of fermentation, the words "moral kidnapping" became completely popular.

Whether in government agencies, state-owned factories, or on the streets, people are discussing moral kidnapping everywhere, and many people are even arguing about it.

The main reason is that there are too many victims and too many people who can empathize with them.

Who hasn’t been morally kidnapped?
Just the sentence "he is still a child" is probably enough to make many people break down. No matter what era, there will always be creatures like "naughty children".

There is also this sentence: It’s not easy, so why bother?
How many people have suffered losses and just when they were trying to get back at each other, they were told this, as if they were not magnanimous enough.

There are too many similar things.

Even if you go to work, you will often be morally blackmailed by someone:
We are all colleagues, so please help if you can.

If you are capable, you should do more...

Why?
With the release of this article, many people have awakened. Screw the moral kidnapping. As long as I have no morals, no one can kidnap me.

Tolerate ovarian cysts for a while, and take a step back from breast hyperplasia.

I won't bear it anymore, and I won't retreat.

Sanhe, agricultural machinery factory!

As usual, Director Zhao makes a cup of tea and reads the newspaper when he arrives at the office. Only then does he get down to work. His life is so comfortable.

But seeing your own name in the newspaper is a very unpleasant feeling.

Moral kidnapping?

I'm blackmailing others? I don't even know what blackmailing is.

Finish reading the article.

Director Zhao admitted that he had indeed committed moral kidnapping.

But it’s not a big deal, right?

It was really not a big deal. I hadn’t even finished my tea when the factory office called for a meeting.

Deputy Director Zheng was criticized, and Director Zhao was also criticized. Director Zhao couldn't help but think of Chen Fan's words: Today's matter is just the first half, and we'll see you in the second half.

This person who writes articles is really difficult to get along with.

Can't afford it!
As for the protagonist of the incident, Zheng Yayuan was even more miserable. He was suspended for a month, given a serious warning, and his criticism was announced to the entire factory through a loudspeaker.

Because in addition to moral kidnapping, this article also made a popular word: My father is the deputy factory director.

Even his father was implicated!

At the same time, the bus and truck stopped in front of the Beijing Dance Troupe. As soon as Xu Jinqiu got off the bus, Director Wang from the remaining troupe came over and said, "Xiao Xu, the Sanhe Agricultural Machinery Factory called and said they wanted to apologize to you."

"Apologize to me?" Xu Jinqiu was stunned for a moment, then thought of Chen Fan.

When in Sanhe, Chen Fan said that he would definitely make them apologize. He didn't expect that they would really apologize as soon as he returned to Beijing.

What did he do? He was so efficient!

"Who called from the farm machinery factory and how did they apologize?"

"Director Zhao, who is in charge of logistics, said that Zheng Yayuan has been suspended for a month and given a serious warning. I hope you can forgive him for his mistakes."

"Just dealt with it?" Xu Jinqiu asked in surprise.

Suspension from work and serious warnings are not light punishments, especially in state-owned factories. These will be recorded in the files and will affect future examinations and promotions.

"How dare they not deal with it? Your partner has made a big fuss about it."

"What's the commotion?"

"Don't you know yet? Go read the People's Daily. What is written about your girlfriend is really scary. I guess no one in the group will dare to mess with you in the future." Director Wang joked.

But this is also true.

Who is not afraid?

The whole article discusses moral kidnapping, but every time the discussion starts, the Sanhe Agricultural Machinery Factory is brought up and rubbed on the ground repeatedly.

Director Wang was worried that if he accidentally offended Xu Jinqiu one day and her boyfriend wrote about him in the newspaper, he would be too embarrassed to live like a human being.

And that article is really ridiculous!
It was clearly just a matter that couldn't be any smaller, but Chen Fan turned it into a social phenomenon, triggering a huge wave of public opinion.

"I'll go look for it."

Dance troupes all subscribe to newspapers on a long-term basis, especially major newspapers like People's Daily.

Xu Jinqiu found the newspaper easily, opened the article and quickly read the sentence "a girlfriend as beautiful as a legend", and her face immediately blushed.

Why does this guy write about everything?

What Xu Jinqiu didn’t know was that along with this editorial, the phrase “beautiful like a legend” also became popular, and some people even called the dance troupe to inquire about her.

After reading the entire article carefully, Xu Jinqiu's eyes became a little vague. She looked at Zhao Yuanyuan, then at Zeng Ali, and the three girls just stared at each other.

Everyone knows that Chen Fan has many tricks, but I didn’t expect that he plays it this way.

How could a trivial matter suddenly become a national topic? The author's article made a lot of sense, and they all thought that moral kidnapping was abominable.

"What a great trick you use. Qiu'er, you can't escape from Chen Fan's grasp. You are destined to be eaten alive." Zhao Yuanyuan looked at her bestie with pity.

"Qiu'er, if you run into trouble in the future, just listen to Chen Fan. It will never go wrong."

Zeng Ali also believed that Xu Jinqiu was destined to be controlled by Chen Fan. This person had a different perspective on things and had the ability to achieve it.

In comparison, Xu Jinqiu is much more immature.

After all, she is only eighteen years old.

But it’s also good, only a man like this can protect Xu Jinqiu.

This is how society is. If you show off your beauty, there will be lustful people who will plot against you. If you show off your wealth, there will be greedy people who will frame you.

Beauty is a disaster when ability cannot protect itself.

Zeng Ali has the same beauty and is also the mainstay of the dance troupe. Her aura is even better than others and she has been remembered by many people over the years.

In other words, she was mentally mature, able to take and let go of fame and fortune, and had some means of self-protection, otherwise she would have been plotted against long ago.

"Well, I know."

Xu Jinqiu didn’t think much about it, she just felt happy. It was enough to know that Chen Fan did it for her.

There’s nothing else to think about.

Life is not a duel where the winner stands and the loser lies down. Chen Fan is only a little domineering at times, but he is still very good to himself.

"Let's go back to the dormitory and rest for a while. Chen Fan will treat us to lunch at noon."

Xu Jinqiu looked at her watch. It was already past ten o'clock. She had agreed with Chen Fan to meet at the door at half past eleven.

She hasn't seen him for two days and she's been missing him.
