CHAPTER 407: CHAPTER 407: CURIOSITY

Yang Yunhai left just like that.

It was only then that Gu Lingling realized that once everything was out in the open, she would miss him so much.

She could only keep herself busy, because only then would she have no time to think about him. But even so, her spirits weren’t as good as before, and she often found herself staring blankly, making people at the factory think this kid had suffered a great grievance.

"Look at how cheerful the girl was usually, now she’s got no spirit because of that Ma Chuang scaring her."

"Poor thing, she hasn’t really smiled recently."

Gu Lingling’s state had really worried a group of loyal auntie fans.

"We absolutely refuse to work with Ma Chuang ever again." This voice first came from the repair workshop and quickly echoed throughout the entire transformer factory.

"The one who bullied my sister, damn it, won’t escape!" Yao Jingsong said with a smile to his buddies as he leaned against a tree. "Next, you guys don’t have to do anything; we should avoid suspicion and just watch the show."

Brother Hai is indeed formidable. With just one move, there’s this feeling of killing silently, which is just too exhilarating.

A single word and then they could gather around and watch the show.

This is the power of the masses.

"But this is too frustrating; we have to beat that kid up severely." Dongzi said.

He and Yao Jingsong were both arranged in the repair workshop. The two grew up together, and Gu Lingling took good care of him. Whenever Yao Jingsong had something to eat, he never forgot him.

So in Dongzi’s heart, Gu Lingling is Yao Jingsong’s sister and his own sister too.

"Don’t worry, he won’t escape this beating." But not now. If Ma Chuang is beaten now, he will surely pretend to be pitiful and gain sympathy.

Moreover, everyone could definitely figure out it was them who did it.

He wouldn’t be that stupid.

Once Ma Chuang is kicked out of the transformer factory, hmph... he wouldn’t call himself Yao Jingsong if he doesn’t beat the wretched guy to death!

"What kind of people did you find?" Gu Juan snapped at Zheng Peng, "Not only did they fail to ruin Gu Lingling’s reputation, but now her reputation at the transformer factory is even better, right?"

Really caught between a rock and a hard place.

If I had known it would be like this, I wouldn’t have targeted Gu Lingling first, and instead gone directly for Yao Jingsong.

"What should we do now?" Gu Juan asked.

"Don’t worry." Zheng Peng soothed her good-naturedly, "This is just my first move. The higher they climb, the harder they fall. Just wait and see."

Ma Chuang is just an appetizer.

Zheng Peng smiled and put his arm around Gu Juan, "Come on, let me take you to eat at the state-run restaurant."

Gu Juan finally smiled.

By the time Gu Lingling heard the news of Ma Chuang’s dismissal, she didn’t even know what to say.

"Well? Happy?" Yao Jingsong said smugly.

"Were you the one behind this?" Gu Lingling asked, "Not bad, you know how to scheme now."

No longer using fists as he did in the past.

"Advice from Brother Hai." Yao Jingsong said proudly, "Brother Hai is really impressive; everything happened just as he predicted."

"Gu Lingling, what did Brother Hai ask you to do that night?" He had been curious about it, always feeling something was odd about them that night.

"Nothing much, just exchanged a few words." Gu Lingling said casually.

"No way, what are you blushing for if it was nothing?" Yao Jingsong was even more curious.

"Little brat, don’t ask so many questions." Gu Lingling glared at him, "Hurry up and go read your books."

Oh no!

Yao Jingsong felt life’s despair, having to write big characters and read books just like before even though he was working now.

This life can’t go on!
