OBS Chapter 36 Picking the Soft Persimmon
Chapter 36 Picking the Soft Persimmon
In a detached courtyard of the Pucheng Municipal Party Committee, Liu Xiaoying cried out, "That bitch Qin Wenjing, she actually dared to bite my ear! I'm going to kill her, I'm going to kill her! Dad, Mom, please help me kill her!"
Liu Xiaoying's mother, He Lamei, quickly hugged her and comforted her: "Baby, don't cry, don't cry, Mom will think of a way, a way to kill her."
Then he turned to a tall, burly man and said, "Liu Bin, you need to think of a way to avenge your daughter! Now! Quickly!"
The man agreed, looked at the bald man, and called out, "Uncle."
The bald man said obsequiously, "Don't worry, Xiaoying's revenge will definitely be taken. After a while, when everyone has forgotten about this, I'll find an excuse to fire that wolf cub!"
No, not only should she be expelled! Her younger siblings should be expelled too!
"What? She has younger brothers and sisters? How many children did that slut have?" He Lamei screamed.
“Three. That wolf cub has a younger sister and a younger brother,” the bald man, Liu Shulin, replied.
"Three?" Liu Xiaoying's father, Liu Bin, the tall and burly man, asked in surprise.
He felt completely resentful. He came from Northeast China, graduated from university, and was assigned here, where he met Vice Mayor He's daughter.
With his tall and handsome appearance, he quickly won the heart of He Lamei and became the vice mayor's son-in-law.
Because of this relationship, he has had a smooth and successful life all these years.
The only drawback is that they only have one daughter.
He wants a son! But the policy doesn't allow it. If he dares to have another child, he will be punished and lose what he has.
He wanted a son, but compared to a comfortable life and a respectable social status, having a son could come later.
After all, it wasn't easy for him to get to this point, coming from a rural background.
Hearing that someone else had three children, including a son, a surge of rage rose within him: He had to kill them! Why should others have what he wanted but couldn't?
"Stop fooling around! Don't mess with that family!"
Principal Liu, please don't say things like that again.
I know you have a kind heart towards children and won't actually do it.
"But if people hear this, it could easily lead to misunderstandings and have a bad influence." Vice Mayor He Chang'an, who had been sitting still and hadn't spoken, finally spoke up.
"Yes, yes, you're right. I'm just trying to comfort the child. I won't say anything more once we're out." Liu Shulin quickly stood up, nodding and bowing.
"Dad! Are we just going to let Xiaoying's matter go like this?" He Lamei was unwilling to accept it.
Vice Mayor He did not answer, but looked at the kitchen and instructed, "Lamei, go to the kitchen and see if your mother has finished cooking."
He Lamei reluctantly walked to the kitchen, where Vice Mayor He began to ask the Liu family uncle and nephew some work-related questions.
In the kitchen, He Lamei grumbled angrily, "That stinky woman from the countryside dared to lay a hand on us. That little beast bit Xiaoying's ear so badly that she needed more than twenty stitches, and Dad said to just let it go."
I can’t swallow this!”
"Lamei, have you ever heard the saying: 'Those who have nothing to lose are not afraid of those who have something to wear'?"
As you just said, they come from the countryside, they have no money, no status, and all they have is a worthless life.
And you? You have everything.
Can you compare their lives to yours?
Your dad is right, don't confront them head-on.
Their lives are not as valuable as ours.
"Look, Xiaoying's ear was bitten and damaged. Even if you beat her to death or maim her, Xiaoying's ear is still injured, right?" He Lamei's mother, Li Lianzhen, said as she continued her work without stopping.
“Mom, we can avoid doing it ourselves and let others do it,” He Lamei muttered.
"Lamei, listen to your father. Policies are changing, and laws are becoming more comprehensive. The old ways don't work anymore."
We must adapt to society and never go against the grain.
"If you cause any big problems and affect your brother's future, your father won't let you off the hook!" Li Lianzhen stopped what she was doing, looked at He Lamei, and said seriously.
"But Mom, Xiaoying is being so wronged! She's making my life miserable!"
"She's angry, and she can vent it if she wants, but we need to keep an eye on her. Don't mess with this tough nut. You have to pick on the weak, understand?"
The mother and daughter finished their conversation, and the food was ready.
After the meal, Liu Shulin took his leave first, followed by Liu Bin who left with his wife and daughter.
"Did you explain it clearly to Lamei?" Vice Mayor He asked Li Lianzhen.
"It's a promise, but Xiaoying has suffered a great injustice this time."
"What wronged her? We've spoiled her too much! Look at her, she's getting more and more outrageous, swearing all the time!" After a pause, Vice Mayor He added, "I heard from Liu Shulin that the girl's parents talked about bullying, and it seems like they're talking about that incident."
You should talk to Lamei and tell her to keep a close eye on Xiaoying. This is a new society. This is Pucheng, not Gangcheng. We don't tolerate violence and gangsters here.
We can't act like a bossy older sister; it could cause a huge mess.
Kai Kai's career is on the rise; don't let them hold him back.
Li Lianzhen agreed gently.
Qin Wenjing went to school, and so did Liu Xiaoying. Liu Xiaoying hated Qin Wenjing so much she wanted to grind her teeth, but she didn't dare to touch her again.
He Lamei told her, "Don't mess with that little beast. This time she can bite your ear, next time she can break your neck."
She believed him. Whenever she saw Qin Wenjing, she felt a pain in her ears and a chill on her neck.
Dad also said: Grandpa repeatedly told us not to confront that Qin Wenjing head-on. She's not afraid of trouble and can make things so big that the higher-ups can't control it, which will delay Grandpa and Uncle's plans.
She didn't understand what her maternal grandfather and uncle were doing, but she knew that she should listen to her maternal grandfather.
She knew that she could act recklessly without her grandfather interfering or even covering for her. However, if she delayed her uncle's business, her grandfather would punish her severely.
Qin Wenjing saw that Liu Xiaoying neither avoided her nor showed any anger; instead, she grinned.
The other group followed Qin Wenjing. Most of them were people who had disliked Liu Xiaoying in the past, and some were people who had been bullied by Liu Xiaoying in the past and wanted to seek a sense of security by following Qin Wenjing.
"Mom, my sister is so cool! She's always followed by a bunch of little fans, and people greet her enthusiastically whenever she comes in or out," Wenxin proudly told Deng Xiuzhen at lunchtime.
“Yes, yes, my classmates all envy me. They say I have a super cool and glamorous older sister, and they wish they had one like her,” Qin Wenyu chimed in.
"Don't talk nonsense!" Qin Wenjing patted Qin Wenyu's head.
"Wenjing?" Deng Xiuzhen looked at Qin Wenjing. She sensed something was wrong and wanted to say something, but didn't know what to say.
