Transmigration: On the Gossip Front-Chapter 1933 - 1934: Female Intellectual Youth Passerby 76

Chapter 1933: Chapter 1934: Female Intellectual Youth Passerby 76

When Zhao Tong and the others returned to the dormitory, they were all in shock. They had originally thought that Zhang Yu’s dad falling ill was the biggest thing that happened to Zhang Yu this holiday.

But who could have imagined that such a thing would happen. At this moment, they really didn’t know what to say.

"I didn’t want to say anything initially because it didn’t affect me, but when I saw Wang Yan, my anger just surged up."

"Originally, when my dad got sick, our whole family was in a panic. Who could have thought that my seemingly healthy dad would get so seriously ill? At that time, we were worried about the surgery results, worried about the biopsy results."

"You could say that my dad’s illness was the focus of our entire family."

"Then this happened. I wasn’t at home then, but if I had been at home or hadn’t reacted quickly, what would the neighbors think?"

Zhang Yu was shivering as she spoke, "Luckily, Wang Yan came to my house the previous day looking for me, and we had an argument that a lot of neighbors witnessed. Otherwise, sigh."

Zhang Yu recounted the argument with Wang Yan that day in detail.

Zhao Tong and the Xia sisters exchanged glances, a thought occurred to them: Zhang Yu must have been really hurt by her neighbor, "It must be your neighbor who brought up the black market, so Wang Yan believed it."

"Of course, I know that. Otherwise, why would she leave in the middle of the night? But I have no evidence, and talking about the black market doesn’t sound good either." Zhang Yu sighed helplessly, "Forget it. She treated me so badly, but if I say something, I would be accused of being aggressive."

"Forget it. Anyway, I’ve completely severed all ties with her. Whatever troubles she has are none of my business anymore."

Thinking of this made Zhang Yu very happy, happy as if she could fly.

Zhao Tong remembered the previous scene, "Exactly, people would really say you’re too harsh."

"By the way, Little Yu, the rice balls you made were really tasty. I’m still not hungry." Zhao Tong rubbed her belly.

Even though the Xia sisters weren’t very full, they weren’t hungry either, "Well, it was a rough night. I’ll rest first."

On the boat, they leaned on each other, unable to rest well at all.

"On the way back, we also didn’t rest well, but why wasn’t I that tired back then? Now I feel exhausted." Zhao Tong couldn’t understand, even though it was the same sleepless night, it felt different.

"That’s because you were going home for a festival, and you were in high spirits, so you didn’t feel tired. Now you’re going back to the farm, knowing you’re about to get busy. Different mood." Zhang Yu yawned, getting ready to rest.

"We start work tomorrow, so rest well today." After another yawn, Zhang Yu quickly fell asleep.

Zhao Tong tidied herself up a bit, then quickly lay under the covers, where she stared at the ceiling, lost in thought for a long time.

The Xia sisters put things away and tidied up the room a bit.

Hearing the commotion, Zhao Tong said, "Let’s tidy up later."

"It’s fine, we can rest later." Xia Lei said they weren’t tired.

Since they said so, Zhao Tong didn’t say anything more and quickly fell asleep.

While Zhang Yu was sleeping soundly, Wang Yan was drawing small circles on her mind. During work, she constantly felt like people were pointing and gossiping about her, but every time she looked up, she couldn’t spot anyone.

It infuriated her to no end. She knew it was definitely because of what Zhang Yu said. Damn Zhang Yu, always causing trouble.

Despite bringing home so much rice, why would it hurt to compensate some to her own family?

Thinking back to that time at the black market selling grains, Wang Yan’s expression darkened. She thought she could sell the goods for a good price, at least to earn back the money she spent, enough to cover her train fare back to the farm, more would be even better.

But who would have thought, she couldn’t even earn back the train fare, not even recoup her initial investment. She didn’t sell a thing at the black market and even lost the goods.

Although the decision was hers, not wanting to get caught by the GWH people, she made that choice. Safety first.

But once it was over, thinking about the lost goods made her unhappy.

She regretted not lowering the price to sell, even one yuan per pound would have worked, money in hand means less worry.

Lately, she’s been really stingy, afraid to spend money. Even if the canteen’s meals were decent with meat, she wouldn’t buy it—not that she didn’t want to eat meat, but money was too tight.

She considered fishing, as having fish, even for soup or roasting, meant having meat.

Zhang Yu, that fool, could catch fish, but why couldn’t she? She was tempted to throw the fishing rod out of frustration, but she didn’t dare; what if it finally caught something?

The more Wang Yan thought, the angrier she became. Initially, she thought Zhang Yu’s life would fall from grace and become as miserable as hers. But who could’ve guessed her dad would be fine.

This wasn’t right. Wang Yan just didn’t understand why God treated Zhang Yu so well while being so cruel to her.

No, she couldn’t bear this; she had to do something. Since her dad was fine, she would find a way to ruin Zhang Yu, tarnish her reputation so much that others could only gossip about her.

Yes, that’s what she would do. Wang Yan felt ecstatic thinking about that scenario.

Youth working near her heard her laughter, glanced at her, puzzled by her ability to laugh despite everything happening.

Not looking was fine, but once they did, Wang Yan’s appearance gave them goosebumps, as if she wasn’t thinking straight.

The intellectual youth motioned to the others, who also jumped in surprise, "Why does it feel so chilly?"

"I feel it too, like she’s up to no good."

Several of them felt they should keep their distance, "Zhang Yu used to treat her so well, giving her food and clothes, but she forgets all that just because Zhang Yu didn’t look after her on the farm."

"Exactly, Lu Yun even thought she was being bullied when she defended her, only to end up being conned into buying her a meal."

"And she complained about the food." 𝐟𝐫𝕖𝗲𝘄𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝕧𝐞𝚕.𝕔𝕠𝐦

With time, some things were forgotten, but Wang Yan’s behavior brought it all back for people to remember.

"In any case, it’s better to stay away from her." Being close to Wang Yan would only bring trouble.
