Married to Officer, Pregnant Specialist becomes the Winner!-Chapter 34: Compromise and Marrying In
To prevent Old Gu from favoring Gu Jia Ning, Wen Zhqing handed the paper to the village head.
"What’s written on this paper is exactly what I just mentioned. You can compare it with Gu Jia Ning’s handwriting to see for yourself."
Bao Shanyan frowned, looking at the paper, contemplating whether to snatch it. If her and Gu Jia Ning’s plan failed, she wouldn’t have a good time either.
But in an instant, she dismissed the idea.
This was something Gu Jia Ning had stirred up, and she had already reminded Gu Jia Ning not to leave any evidence.
If Wen Zhqing still managed to catch something, it would mean Gu Jia Ning was foolish.
Moreover, even if Gu Jia Ning was exposed, she could deny any connection or plan with Gu Jia Ning.
However...
Bao Shanyan glanced at Gu Jia Ning and saw her calm demeanor. She wondered if there were some hidden tricks involved. Gu Jia Ning had been foolish before, but ever since she was fished out from the river, she seemed to have gotten smarter.
Perhaps...
Like Bao Shanyan, everyone else’s gaze was fixed on the paper the village head took.
Old Gu also murmured to himself. Wen Zhiqing seemed so convinced; could it really be his daughter’s handwriting?
As her father, he knew that his daughter genuinely liked Wen Zhiqing before.
Honestly, being watched by everyone made the village head a bit uneasy too.
Nevertheless, he slowly opened the paper.
The moment he opened it, the village head’s expression changed.
The expression was indescribable, somewhat peculiar, making it hard for others to understand.
Old Gu leaned over to take a look, and at first glance, his expression turned as peculiar as the village head’s.
"Village head, is what’s written on there the same as what Wen Zhiqing said?"
"And does it look like Gu Jia Ning’s handwriting?"
"Village head, you can’t cover for her just because Gu Jia Ning is your kin."
"Yeah, that’s right."
The educated youth clamored.
The village head, looking at these clamoring educated youth, grew angry.
These people had been complaining about fatigue and hardship, but now they were shouting loud and clear. With such a strong voice, their bodies must be in good shape too.
In that case, he could assign them more work later.
After all, they claimed to come here for construction, so they should be given a proper chance to build.
The village head snorted coldly, unfolded the paper, and handed it to Wen Zhqing, "Wen Zhiqing, you must think I’m old and brought some random paper to fool me. This paper has nothing on it."
"Everyone, take a look, there’s nothing on this paper."
The educated youth looked at it first, indeed, both sides were blank, without a single word.
At this moment, Wen Zhqing was the most incredulous. He finally showed a bit of panic.
He took the paper, looked at it repeatedly, whether from afar or up close, but no matter how he looked, there wasn’t a single word, not even a trace of a letter’s imprint.
"How can this be, how is this possible!"
For a brief moment, Wen Zhqing wondered if the incident with the paper yesterday had been an illusion.
Clearly, when he opened it yesterday, it was filled with words, in Gu Jia Ning’s handwriting, but now all those words had disappeared.
What exactly happened?
Right, there must be something wrong with the paper, then what about the handkerchief laced with drugs?
Wen Zhqing handed the handkerchief belonging to Bao Shanyan to Old Zhang, who arrived just in time.
"Uncle Zhang, please help me check if there’s still any drug residue on this handkerchief."
Bao Shanyan raised an eyebrow. After she covered Wen Zhqing with that handkerchief, she threw it to the ground. Little did she expect Wen Zhqing to pick it up.
Even in such a compromised situation, where he had been taken advantage of, Wen Zhqing remained frighteningly rational, still remembering to use the handkerchief as evidence.
However, at this moment, Bao Shanyan was not worried.
Especially after the paper that might have had Gu Jia Ning’s handwriting turned blank.
She knew this must have been Gu Jia Ning’s doing.
So, Gu Jia Ning wouldn’t leave any evidence on the handkerchief either.
Indeed, that was the case.
Old Zhang took the handkerchief, examined it closely, smelled it, and then said, "Wen Zhiqing, I’m sorry, I can’t see or smell any drug residue on it." 𝘧𝑟𝑒𝑒𝘸𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝓁.𝘤𝘰𝓂
"You all can take a look and smell it yourselves."
People around took it over as well.
The handkerchief appeared clean, with no marks or any scent.
When the handkerchief returned to Wen Zhqing’s hand, clean and without any trace, Wen Zhqing realized his defense had failed; all his supposed evidence did not exist.
His shoulders slumped, as if he suddenly lost all his strength.
Bao Shanyan’s eyes lit up, and she exchanged a look with her mother.
Bao Yingzi immediately understood, put her hands on her hips, and shot with full momentum, "Everyone saw it. Wen Zhiqing said the Gu Family girl and my daughter schemed against him, but he couldn’t produce any evidence. How could it be judged solely on his words?"
"I don’t care, Wen Zhiqing, I need your decision now."
"Do you agree to marry into the Bao Family, or should I report this to the police, go to the commune, and accuse you of being a hooligan? It’s up to you."
This remark silenced the educated youth.
They had no choice; Wen Zhqing indeed took advantage of Bao Shanyan, and he was caught in the act. Without evidence, he could only blame his misfortune.
Wen Zhqing lowered his head, clenching the handkerchief tightly, and after a long pause, squeezed out three words from between his teeth, "I’ll marry in."
Bao Yingzi was satisfied, and Bao Shanyan was delighted.
"That’s settled then. I think three days from now would be a good day, let’s set it for then."
"Everyone, come to the banquet and join my Yanzi’s and Wen’s wedding feast in three days."
As Bao Shanyan happily invited everyone to the banquet, no one noticed Wen Zhqing’s head bowed low, with eyes as red as blood.
Today was the most humiliating day of Wen Zhqing’s life.
He chose to temporarily compromise, but he would not compromise forever. Once the time was right, he would make them pay back in full.
The villagers, having seen enough drama, began to leave one by one.
Gu Jia Ning also intended to leave with Sheng Zexi, but unexpectedly, Wen Zhqing quickly stepped in front of her.
With reddened eyes, he stared intently at her, "Gu Jia Ning, tell me, how did you do it with the paper and the handkerchief?"
Gu Jia Ning, startled by Wen Zhqing’s sudden block and those reddened eyes, was quickly pulled behind Sheng Zexi, who faced off against Wen Zhqing.
Standing over 1.9 meters tall, taller than the 1.8 meter Wen Zhqing, Sheng Zexi looked down with narrowed eyes at Wen Zhqing, eyes filled with danger, "Young man, what do you intend to do to my wife?"
