Chapter 362

Lin Lan wasn’t afraid of being ashamed, nor did she particularly care about the people who pointed fingers and gossiped about her life. Either way, she knew that she had a reputation as a shrew already, so it really couldn’t get any worse.

But Liu Xiuyun was different. The Liu family was also quite a prestigious family in the village. Plus, they cared about their reputation a tad too much.

Since their viewpoints were different from hers, the way they handled matters would vary as well. For Liu Xiuyun, the best way to handle this issue was to marry the man first.

As for said man,it’s alright even if he was indeed a scumbag. With the entirety of the Shanzui Village watching him, he wouldn’t be able to behave that badly once they get married. n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

And even if he was a scumbag, she could still get a divorce in the future. Being pregnant before marriage and being the main topic of gossip out of older women’s mouths were more harmful towards a reputation-conscious family like Liu Xiuyun than divorce.

After all, it was still the 70’s now and there were no shortages of hooliganism. In fact, the era was now notorious for a certain pattern of crimes that included destroying and sabotaging shoes. Either way, once the members of the Commune make use of the gossip to stir trouble, criticism would be inevitable.

Lin Lan talked to Han Qingsong in a low voice and her breath soft. Han Qingsong didn’t dare to move as his ears started to heat up, but when she spoke to him and exhaled, the air she emitted was cold, but there was an indescribable comfort and numbness to it. It was quite warming in a way, so much so that all he wanted to do was to take her home…

After finishing speaking, Lin Lan patted Han Qingsong’s arm, “Third Brother…Hurry up.”

Third Brother~~

The term that Han Qingsong never really appreciated being addressed as so suddenly felt very charming and soft when it was said from her mouth. It almost felt like the term was meant for a different person, had a different meaning and was a different title altogether.

The way she said Third Brother with a soft ending felt like she was acting like a child but was seducing him.

He shook her hand, “Okay,” When he got up, he straightened his pants to block a place that no one would see.

After a while, Han Qingsong came back to Lin Lan.

Lin Lan thought that he would take the initiative to tell her about what occurred, but he remained expressionless, saying nothing as he peeled the corn.

She had no choice but to lean over again, “Did you tell him?”

Han Qingsong, “Say it again.”

“Say what now?”

Han Qingsong, “What you called me before.”

Lin Lan snickered, what a simpleton, remembering so vividly with a term like ‘Third Brother’. She tugged at his sleeves so that he could pay attention to her before she leaned her lips against his ear and whispered, “Honey.”

Before she finished speaking, she felt his ears getting hot, as if they were burning.

Sanwang, “Mom, what interesting topics are you telling father?! I want to listen in too!”

…This unlucky boy.

Han Qingping and Huo Yuan also looked at them and smiled.

Lin Lan said seriously, “I’m discussing a few things with your father. Have you been misbehaving recently? I’m going to teach you a lesson when we go back.”

Sanwang stood up quickly, “I’m much better behaved than Eldest Brother, but I’m going over there,” As soon as he spoke, he ran away faster than a rabbit.

Han Qingsong turned his head and whispered to Lin Lan, “Chen Haoran.”

Chen Haoran? Did he actually find out the identity of the scumbag? He had such great ability? What a scary intuition.

Lin Lan thought for a moment, “Oh, isn’t that the one who lives with Third Uncle?”
