"Feng Yuanchun, you...cough cough..." Chen Shengjun got up, clutching his chest, his face contorted in pain. "Feng Yuanchun, are you really going to be so cold and heartless, not caring at all about our relationship?"
"Relationship?" Feng Yuanchun was furious. "I don't know you well, what relationship are you talking about? Chen Shengjun, you think you can fool me? No way!"
Then, she kicked the scumbag away again, and Yuanchun ran towards the village, shouting, "He's being a pervert! Chen Shengjun is trying to be a pervert towards me!"
Her voice attracted many villagers.
"Yuanchun, what's wrong? Who's been harassing you?"
"Yuanchun, who's chasing you?"
...
Yuanchun looked frightened and terrified. "Waaah, it was Chen Shengjun. I was on my way home from work when he stopped me halfway. He said I hit him this morning, and he was going to... to ruin my reputation, then marry me and let his mother torture me. Luckily, I reacted quickly and kicked him and ran away, so he didn't succeed."
As she spoke, Yuanchun even managed to squeeze out a few tears, looking pitiful, which earned her a lot of sympathy from the villagers.
"Chen Shengjun, are you crazy? You actually tried to ruin Yuanchun's reputation! Luckily, Yuanchun ran away quickly, otherwise her life would have been ruined by you!"
"There's not a single good person in the Chen family. I used to think you were a good person because you were more diligent than your three brothers, but who knew you were even worse than them? Yuanchun is so young, and you already wanted to ruin her reputation! Aren't you afraid of retribution?"
"Heh, he's afraid of retribution, so he wouldn't dare to have such a vicious thought."
...
A group of villagers surrounded Chen Shengjun, cursing him furiously.
Chen Shengjun struggled to his feet and explained, "I didn't... I was framed by Feng Yuanchun. I stopped her, but..."
Chen Shengjun wanted to find an excuse to get away with it, but then he thought, the Feng family and the Chen family were already enemies, so it was impossible for him to reconcile with Feng Yuanchun.
Unless...
Chen Shengjun changed the subject abruptly, gritting his teeth, "You've misunderstood. Actually, Yuanchun and I are dating. I went to see her to apologize. My mother doesn't know we're dating, otherwise she wouldn't have bullied Yuanchun this morning. I want to apologize to Yuanchun on my mother's behalf and ask for her forgiveness."
Every word Chen Shengjun spoke was true.
Unfortunately, no one in Fengjia Village believed him.
"Hahaha... What did I just hear? This kid actually said he and Feng Yuanchun are dating?"
"You heard right, I heard it too! Chen Shengjun, are you trying to be a pervert, trying to ruin Yuanchun's reputation? You're shameless!"
"Chen Shengjun, you toad, you dare to dream of dating Yuanchun? Hahaha... Can your Chen family even afford a hundred yuan dowry?"
"He doesn't want a hundred yuan dowry. He just wants to ruin Yuanchun's reputation, then get a wife for free without spending a penny."
"So shameless!"
"No, this must be told to the village chief. Otherwise, everyone will be like Chen Shengjun, deliberately ruining someone's reputation to get a wife. Who will dare leave their house then?"
Every family in the village has a daughter waiting to be married. Even if they don't have one now, they will in a few years. The villagers don't want a beast constantly lusting after their daughters living in their village.
The villagers were enraged and dragged Chen Shengjun to the village chief.
Yuan Chun followed leisurely behind the crowd, a slight smile playing on her lips.
"Heh, you scumbag, in your past life you betrayed the original owner, ruining her reputation. In this life, I'll make you taste that bitterness too.
You'll taste the humiliation and contempt of everyone.
