Gu An’an’s eyes grew cold as she stared at him, everything she said was logical and hitting the mark. “Do you not understand how important one’s reputation is? Or have you left your brain behind when you got off the train earlier on?”

“Huh?”

After hearing Gu An’an’s words, the passengers who witnessed the incident all looked at Huang Dahai with strange expressions in their eyes.

They thought that this person…

“Comrade, a person’s reputation is as important as their life. Despite knowing the truth, you are still defending her and blaming the innocent. Is that how a man should behave?”

The auntie who was the first to step forward and expose Wen Taohua’s lie couldn’t stand it anymore, so she pointed at the male youth and told him off.

“That’s right. He’s a grown man, but he doesn’t think before he speaks. People like him should be educated alongside that woman who lied,” someone chimed in.

“That’s right. He’s a grown man who is just spouting nonsense. Quickly apologize to that young lady…”

“…”

In an instant, there were more and more accusations coming from the crowd. Huang Dahai’s face turned pale and his anger intensified. “I’m sorry, I shouldn’t have interfered.”

After saying that in a hurry, he pushed through the crowd with his luggage and left.

Wen Taohua was dumbfounded.

She did not expect that her plan would backfire and damage her reputation as a result. Moreover, she had spent a lot of effort to rope in Huang Dahai. But now, after being condemned by these people, he had left her behind.

Having been embarrassed in public because of this matter, would Huang Dahai still help her in the future?

Wen Taohua couldn’t help but feel flustered. Luck was really not on her side today. This had to be the reason why her plan had not worked out. After all, during the past few days on the train, Gu An’an had never refuted her no matter what she said. Why did things change as soon as she got off the train?

Speaking of this, we have to mention this person whom she was trying to butter up—Gu Nana.

Just the other day, Gu Nana had just suffered a setback at the hands of Gu An’an. Her new dress and sandals were taken away by the latter, which ignited a burning anger in her that she could barely suppress.

So she approached Wen Taohua, who was always hanging around her, and asked her to create trouble for Gu An’an once she got to the countryside. She wanted Wen Taohua to find an opportunity to ruin Gu An’an’s reputation.

Recalling the changes in Gu An’an, Gu Nana was worried that Wen Taohua would back out if she knew about this. Hence, she kept the truth to herself.

“An’an, I’m sorry. I shouldn’t have thrown those accusations at you previously. It was a moment of stupor when I reached out to push you. Boo Hoo… Let me apologize to you. I am sorry. Being neighbors and fellow comrades, please forgive me this time…”

As she spoke, she reached out to pull Gu An’an.

Her face was covered in blood and tears. She thought that she looked very pitiful. However, little did she know that her current appearance made people want to keep their distance from her.

Gu An’an shuddered and took a big step back. She raised her hand and said, “Stop! Our families are located in the east and west respectively. When have we become neighbors?”

“And Comrade Wen, please call me Gu Zhiqing or Comrade Gu. Only those who are close to me can call me An’an. As for you, I’m sorry. We were barely acquainted in the past. It’s better if we don’t have any interactions in the future!”

“After all, with a neighbor like you, I’m afraid we have to be careful even when sleeping at night…”
