Transmigration: On the Gossip Front-Chapter 1937 - 1938: Female Intellectual Youth Passerby 80
Watching Wang Yan’s back, everyone glanced at the female intellectual youth who had spoken earlier. The latter didn’t feel she had said anything wrong, "She’s already done this, so having a child isn’t really surprising, is it?"
Even though some were naive, and there wasn’t much in terms of sex education back then, people knew that when a man and a woman became a couple, a child would follow.
Now that Wang Yan had done this, having a child shouldn’t be a strange thing.
"If she has a child, will she get married or what?" one of the intellectual youths was genuinely curious about what Wang Yan would do if she became pregnant.
"No way." Although many intellectual youths felt Wang Yan lacked self-respect, they didn’t think she would marry that loafer. "That man is lazy and never works. If his parents didn’t spoil and suppress him, the family would have split up long ago."
Even though that place was a village, it was close to the farm, so the intellectual youths interacted with them a lot and knew a bit about such a notorious family.
Yao Ying listened quietly at the side. As more details emerged, her expression grew increasingly grim. She didn’t believe Wang Yan fancied that loafer. If Wang Yan was planning to be with him, it must be for some calculated reason.
As for who she was scheming against, it was clear. Yao Ying’s anger soared, and she made up her mind, "Today, you can’t leave my sight."
Although that person was scared away for the moment, such people might not give up entirely. There’s no telling if he might make a last-ditch effort; after all, his reputation is already ruined, so any act of revenge would be a gain.
Zhang Yu nodded continuously, "Mom, don’t worry, I absolutely won’t leave you."
"Hmm." Yao Ying pulled Zhang Yu and walked toward the team office, "Let’s handle the procedures first, then we’ll leave overnight."
"We’ll stay at the guesthouse at the field tonight." Initially, she thought about staying in a dorm, but now she was really worried.
"Mom, it’s fine, you haven’t met my roommates." Zhang Yu remembered she hadn’t yet talked to Zhao Tong and the others about the rice, so she decided to take this opportunity.
"And I haven’t packed my things at all. I don’t even know how long it’ll take for me to pack everything." To make it seem realistic, Zhang Yu had actually packed nothing, and there was a lot to pack.
"Alright." Yao Ying thought for a moment. With her around, she still worried that Wang Yan might stir up more trouble, "If that person starts any more trouble, I won’t be polite."
Everyone watched Yao Ying with a serious expression, feeling that she carried such an aura. Suddenly, they somewhat understood why Zhang Yu always mentioned calling the police.
Previously, they really didn’t understand. In those days, everyone avoided dealing with state agencies if possible, yet Zhang Yu was different, as she had no hesitation. The reason was right here.
Though they envied Zhang Yu’s chance to return to the city, they knew she was thoroughly prepared and no mishap would occur. Moreover, intervening would not benefit anyone.
Lu Yun couldn’t attend today but knew the gist of it. Seeing Wang Yan rush into the dorm crying, she sneered inwardly, "Since you’ve done those things, and now people are pointing them out, I really don’t understand why you’re crying."
"What are you crying about?" Lu Yun genuinely didn’t understand what Wang Yan had to cry about. "If anyone should be crying, it should be me, for being in the same dorm as you."
Lu Yun felt angry just thinking about it. These days, many pointed fingers at Wang Yan in private. Even though she was innocent, because they lived in the same dorm, people questioned how good her roommate could be.
Lu Yun was frustrated, as clearly, they weren’t the same type of people. Though they shared a dorm, they rarely spoke.
"I mean, since you’ve already gotten involved with someone, why are you still in the dorm? Aren’t you going to get married?" Lu Yun knew there weren’t any available dorms for her to move into, so maybe it was better if Wang Yan just got married.
If she got married, she wouldn’t be able to stay in the dorm, so there’d be no need to switch dorms.
Marriage? Wang Yan’s mood was already terrible. She had returned to the dorm hoping for some peace, but who would’ve thought that annoying Lu Yun would ask when she was getting married.
"Why should I get married?" Wang Yan suddenly sat up and snapped at Lu Yun.
Lu Yun was dumbfounded, "Ah, aren’t you planning to get married?"
"You’ve been with that loafer for so long." Lu Yun glanced at her belly and decided not to mention it so as not to provoke her. Seeing her in such a state, she realized Wang Yan was deeply hurt.
"If you don’t want to marry him, you should stay away from him." Lu Yun finally couldn’t help but say, "I really don’t understand what you see in him."
"You said your family treats you poorly. If you find a man who’s good to you, that’s one thing, but why did you choose someone like him?" Lu Yun truly couldn’t understand.
"I, I..." Wang Yan didn’t know how to answer. She certainly couldn’t say that she never intended to marry him, as he was the man she had picked for Zhang Yu.
Of course, she couldn’t say that, so she just kept quiet.
Seeing that Wang Yan didn’t want to talk, Lu Yun had no choice but to say, "Fine, cry if you want."
Lu Yun understood that Wang Yan didn’t want to get married, which really gave her a headache. If Wang Yan refused to move out, what should she do, continue staying with her in the dorm?
Lu Yun wasn’t pleased. She vaguely suspected that Wang Yan had chosen this loafer as part of some scheme against Zhang Yu.
Don’t ask her how she knew this. Once, she was unable to sleep and heard Wang Yan talking in her sleep, saying she wanted to make Zhang Yu suffer, never be happy, and never return to the city.
At that time, she wondered how it could be possible, since everyone knew Zhang Yu’s parents doted on her. In a few years, her father would transfer his job to Zhang Yu, allowing her to return to the city.
Later, she overheard Wang Yan say she wanted that loafer to beat Zhang Yu. She wondered how a loafer could beat Zhang Yu and what the situation was.
She perked up, eager to hear more, but Wang Yan fell silent, leaving her itching with curiosity.
When the rumor about Wang Yan and the loafer spread, Lu Yun’s suspicion grew, but she dared not say anything. She had no proof, and Wang Yan’s words were uttered in sleep, unprovable.
Fortunately, Zhang Yu was going back to the city, and Wang Yan’s plan had failed, luckily. While Lu Yun felt relief for Zhang Yu, she realized, wait a minute, Wang Yan had just said she wouldn’t marry that loafer. Would he let Wang Yan go?
If that loafer didn’t let go, what would Wang Yan do?
At this thought, Lu Yun suddenly froze. She knew Wang Yan was very selfish and would do anything to free herself, regardless of how extreme.
After all, face meant nothing to her. As long as her life was good, that was all that mattered.
Lu Yun knew she had to save herself. Otherwise, she might become a scapegoat. But how could she save herself, she wondered.
