Sweet Nostalgia of the 80s

Chapter 858: Chapter 858 Slanderous Accusations

Xiaolin glanced around the warehouse and began to worry.

Other than two ventilation outlets on the roof, where were there windows in this warehouse?

Moreover, the vents were covered with protective nets; it wasn’t so easy to just escape.

”Sister-in-law, what do I do if I can’t escape?” Xiaolin anxiously felt sweat forming on his forehead.

If Qin Jian saw An Hao here, he certainly wouldn’t suspect any relation between An Hao and Xiaolin, but that might not be the case with others.

What if An Hao claimed she was framed by Xin Ni, who would believe her?

Even if Qin Jian could suppress this matter, making people keep silent,

her reputation would still be ruined, and Qin Jian would be pointed at and unable to lift his head in shame.

Not to mention, it would be even worse for the warrior Xiaolin!

An Hao thought hard and then her eyes lit up— if she wanted to clear the suspicions, it seemed she would have to resort to drastic measures.

”Xiaolin, if I have a way out, but it means you’d have to suffer a bit, would you be willing?” An Hao asked for his opinion.

Upon reflection, considering the urgency of the situation, even if he were unwilling, he would have no choice.

”I’ll follow Sister-in-law’s orders,” he said. At this point, it wouldn’t just be about enduring some hardship—even sacrificing half his life wouldn’t be an issue.

An Hao looked around and spotted a pile of bricks in the corner of the warehouse. She walked over, picked one up, and handed it to Xiaolin.

”At this point, I can only apologize for putting you through this. Otherwise, none of us will be able to clear our names today.”

Xiaolin understood what An Hao meant when he saw the brick in her hand, so he nodded, gritted his teeth, and smacked it against his own head.

Not long after Xin Ni left the warehouse, the summer evening party came to an end.

Batches of family members walked out from inside.

Feng Chunhua said to Zhang Guifang, ”Guifang, how come I haven’t seen An Hao?”

”I don’t know! She seems to have gone out.”

Another family member came over, ”Are you talking about the Chief of Staff’s wife? I think I saw a warrior calling her away.”

”A warrior? What did he want with her?”

”I don’t know! I just saw them talking quietly on the side; the voice was so soft I didn’t hear clearly.”

”If that’s the case, let’s not wait for her. We’ll go ahead,” Feng Chunhua said.

As soon as she finished speaking, she saw Xin Ni running over in a fluster, ”I just saw An Hao and a little warrior going into the old warehouse. Then, I found this where they passed by.”

As Xin Ni spoke, she took out a little notebook from her hand to show them.

”What is this?” Zhang Guifang snatched the notebook from Xin Ni’s hand, glanced at the contents, and immediately realized it was bad news.

The book was filled with fiery love poetry, which could easily lead others to speculate about the nature of the relationship between the two.

”Guifang, what’s written there?” Feng Chunhua, curious, craned her neck to see, although she recognized only a few big characters.

”It’s nothing, just some doodles and scribbles, a bunch of waste paper,” Zhang Guifang said, intending to tear the notebook up.

Xin Ni quickly snatched the book back and said, ”This notebook is filled with love poetry! Could there be something between the two of them?”

”Don’t go around spreading rumors and causing trouble!” Zhang Guifang became nervous, her heart not at ease, she intended to harm An Hao, ”

What is Qin Jian’s status? He’s the son of the Commander of the Northern Military Region! An Hao is the daughter-in-law of the Commander of the Northern Military Region, the Chief of Staff’s precious, and talented, with a boundless future ahead of him! How could An Hao fancy a little warrior? How could there be such sordid affairs between them? I think it’s your own dirty mind, tainting others with your filth,” Zhang Guifang accused.
