Back to the 1980s: Transmigrated as the Bigshot's Pampered Wife-Chapter 90: Two Scourges Belong Together
He Aijun was also preparing to go to the Southern Border. He had come back this time to say goodbye to his family and made a special trip to the school to see his younger brother.
His brother was not doing well in his studies; he didn’t pay attention in class and even disturbed other students, so he had been called to the teacher’s office for a lecture.
As He Aijun and his brother were coming out of the teacher’s office, they saw a female student about to smash her head against a wall to kill herself.
As a soldier with a strong sense of justice, he despised people who didn’t cherish their own lives. So, while he moved to save the student, he also let out an angry curse.
And just like that, the female student started to resent him for it!
The resentment in her eyes was so palpable. To be honest, this was the kind of woman he found most annoying.
’But if I let go, what if she tries to hit the wall again?!’
Mrs. Sheng was jolted awake by Gu Jiaojiao. She opened her eyes to meet Gu Jiaojiao’s worried gaze, the sweet taste of the mung bean popsicle in her mouth spreading to her heart.
Overcome with rage, Mrs. Sheng felt a sliver of comfort. She didn’t know if it was out of embarrassment or a yearning for the warmth radiating from Gu Jiaojiao.
She wanted to close her eyes again, but Aunt Song’s furious yelling nearly made her spit up blood once more.
"Ren Cuiping! Open your eyes and look at the disgrace you’ve raised! First, she’s eating the forbidden fruit with my son, and now she’s clinging to another man’s arms!"
Mrs. Sheng shot bolt upright and saw that her daughter was indeed nestled in a man’s arms.
"PFFT..."
Mrs. Sheng was so enraged that she spat out a mouthful of blood.
The surrounding teachers and students gasped in shock. They wanted to watch the drama, but they didn’t want to see someone die.
Gu Jiaojiao roared, "Aunt Song, you’re too vicious! Are you trying to drive the Sheng mother and daughter to their deaths?
Your son is the one who did something so shameless, yet you have the nerve to blame the girl’s mother."
Dong Qiming immediately chimed in, "Exactly! Your son is shameless, so what gives you the right to stand here cursing everyone out?"
Zhang Mingyu added, "It takes two to tango! How can you blame just one person when two people were fooling around?"
"Song Zijin, I’m going to kill you, you spineless coward! You shameless dog of a man!"
When Sheng Shiwen saw his mother had actually been angered to the point of spitting blood, he let out a roar and began to shove his way toward Song Zijin.
Rage surged from the soles of his feet to the top of his head. A nameless fire blazed in his heart, and he couldn’t suppress it.
His face went from pale to ashen, veins bulged on his temples, and his cheeks trembled with unvented fury.
The teachers and male students immediately held him back, worried that in his extreme anger, he wouldn’t know his own strength and might actually kill someone.
Song Zijin saw that the crowd couldn’t hold Sheng Shiwen back. If his rival got close, he would definitely be beaten to death.
He finally realized the gravity of the situation and roughly yanked Sheng Yueyue out of He Aijun’s arms.
"Yueyue, is this what you call loving me? Clinging to another man right in front of my face."
For the first time, Sheng Yueyue lost her temper with Song Zijin. "If it wasn’t for He Aijun just now, I’d really be dead!"
He Aijun felt a wave of relief, having finally gotten rid of the hot potato in his hands. Seeing that the teachers and students couldn’t stop Sheng Shiwen...
...he went over and grabbed Sheng Shiwen, not stopping to wonder how Sheng Yueyue knew his name.
"Comrade, please calm down. If you rush over there so recklessly, someone could die."
"Don’t try to stop me! I’m going to beat him to death," Sheng Shiwen said savagely.
But he was no match for He Aijun. No matter how he struggled, he couldn’t break free from He Aijun’s grip.
Seeing everyone’s attention was focused elsewhere, Gu Jiaojiao quickly took out her silver needles and, with a few swift motions, inserted them.
A moment later, Mrs. Sheng opened her eyes again. "Jiaojiao, Mom... I’m so sorry!" 𝓯𝙧𝙚𝒆𝙬𝙚𝒃𝙣𝙤𝒗𝓮𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢
Mrs. Sheng thought she was going to die from anger on the spot. Once again, it was her adopted daughter who had saved her, setting aside their past grievances.
"You don’t need to blame yourself. I was the one who was immature before. Let’s not bring up the past. You need to be strong now.
You have to get justice for Sheng Yueyue. If those two don’t get married, they could be charged with hooliganism. That’s a serious matter.
A shameless menace like Song Zijin can’t be allowed to just love her and leave her. You have to nip that kind of behavior in the bud the moment you see it.
If you don’t shut him down, it will only encourage this kind of immoral behavior. Imagine if society had more people like him.
That would be terrible. It’s especially important for people of your status to be careful. You can’t let someone like that ruin everything."
Mrs. Sheng: ...
’Is this still the same adopted daughter who could only cry whenever something happened, so delicate she couldn’t take care of herself?’
Gu Jiaojiao wasn’t actually concerned about Sheng Yueyue. She felt that neither Song Zijin nor Sheng Yueyue were good people.
It would be best if those two were tied together, to keep them from ruining other people’s lives—like the man who had just saved Sheng Yueyue.
Sheng Yueyue was clearly interested in him. She had been staring at him foolishly while nestled in his arms.
Sheng Yueyue was a beast who knew how to feign weakness. Even when she was at a disadvantage, she could cry a river of pitiful tears.
No matter how many wicked things she did, others would still pity her. That man was holding her without letting go precisely because he felt sorry for her.
If He Aijun knew what Gu Jiaojiao was thinking, he would surely jump out and explain that he was just afraid she would try to kill herself again by running into the wall.
After Gu Jiaojiao finished speaking, she saw Mrs. Sheng staring at her with wide, incredulous eyes. She rubbed her nose and offered an explanation.
"Everything I know, you and Uncle Sheng taught me. Don’t be too surprised. I was just too dependent on you both before. After I left, I woke up."
Gu Jiaojiao wasn’t lying. The original owner of her body had indeed come to her senses before she left!
Of course, her skills weren’t taught to her by Mr. and Mrs. Sheng, but the couple had made great contributions to the country.
Especially their eldest son, who was going to the Southern Border to shed his blood for the country and its people.
Deep down, Gu Jiaojiao still admired them. What was the harm in saying a few nice things to make them happy?
"Jiaojiao... thank you."
Mrs. Sheng wanted to say, ’Mom thanks you,’ but Gu Jiaojiao was no longer willing to call her "Mom."
She wasn’t willing to call her husband "Dad" anymore, either. Jiaojiao had called him "Uncle Sheng!"
’But could she really blame Jiaojiao for that?!’
"You’re welcome. Please don’t get angry again. That mother and son, the Songs, are thick-skinned, self-righteous, and don’t seem to understand plain language."
As soon as Gu Jiaojiao finished speaking, the bell rang for class. She waved goodbye to Mrs. Sheng.
Zhang Mingyu and Dong Qiming flanked Gu Jiaojiao, walking alongside her as the other students also ran toward their classrooms.
Hearing Gu Jiaojiao’s words, Mrs. Sheng did indeed feel much better. She looked up and saw her second son still struggling with the He family’s son.
"Shi Wen, calm down! Mr. He, thank you for saving our daughter. Her father and I will pay you a personal visit another day to thank you properly."
"Aunt Sheng, you’re too kind. It was what I should have done. I have other matters to attend to, so I’ll be leaving now."
After speaking, He Aijun left without a backward glance. If he didn’t leave now, when would he?
Song Zijin’s father and Mr. Sheng also arrived in a hurry. Seeing her husband, Aunt Song didn’t dare to act so arrogantly anymore.
Mainly, she had been terrified by Sheng Shiwen’s ferocity. If that man hadn’t stopped him, Sheng Shiwen might have beaten her son to a pulp.
Seeing that his mother was awake, Sheng Shiwen also calmed down. He shot a look of disgust at Song Zijin and Sheng Yueyue, who were now holding each other.
