Chapter 457: It Was Simply Too Embarrassing

With such a major incident occurring, someone naturally went to notify the Party Secretary.

The Party Secretary flew into a rage on his way over; by the time he arrived, some busybodies had already pushed open the melon shed's gate and shone their flashlights inside: "Liu Jiandong, who is the woman in your arms?"

The instant the light shone in, Ding Surong threw herself into Liu Jiandong's arms; it was simply too embarrassing, and she thought she would hide for as long as she could.

Seeing those people staring at him, Liu Jiandong knew that if he didn't speak, someone would likely come in and drag them apart; he whispered in Ding Surong's ear: "At this point, I'm afraid we can't escape; for both our sakes, in a moment just say we are dating..."

He hadn't even finished speaking when Ding Surong flew into a rage: "Liu Jiandong, what nonsense are you spouting? We clearly have no relationship."

Liu Jiandong continued to bluff: "This is just a temporary measure; do you really want them to drag you off to the Revolutionary Committee?"

Ding Surong understood in her heart that even if her father could help her, distant water cannot quench immediate thirst; moreover, if her father learned she was no longer pure, would he abandon her?

After quickly weighing the pros and cons, she said: "Fine, I agree, but this is only a temporary measure; do not take it seriously, as I will never marry a country person."

Once the two agreed, Liu Jiandong shouted to the people crowding the melon shed entrance: "Put away your flashlights; I've finally found a girlfriend, so don't scare her."

The Party Secretary shouted from outside: "Hurry and make them roll out of the melon shed."

There was no choice; even though Ding Surong did not want to face this, she could only follow Liu Jiandong out of the melon shed, stumbling and stammering.

After all, she did not want to be dragged out of the melon shed; if that happened, how could she possibly live? She thought she would go make a phone call tomorrow to have her father bring her back to Huicheng immediately; she didn't want to stay here for a single day.

Seeing them emerge, someone cried out in shock: "It's Ding Zhiqing."

"Oh my heavens, this is truly a sight for sore eyes; even a city Zhiqing has gone into a melon shed with someone."

Hearing these words, the onlooking crowd burst into raucous laughter.

It nearly made Ding Surong faint from shame.

Over there, Peng Ailan was still wailing; Cheng Laizi had been beaten badly and seemed to have already fainted.

The Party Secretary and the Village Head conferred, then shouted to the nearest outsider, the pig butcher: "Ge San, go to the neighboring Huaihua Village and have the village cadres bring Cheng Laizi's family over here."

Ge San turned and shouted to the back of the crowd: "Da Niu, Er Dan, did you hear the Party Secretary? Hurry and run to Huaihua Village."

The Party Secretary and the Village Head already knew his character well and did not argue with him; after all, the two children had often been ordered around by his father, and having received his father's orders, they had long since run off to handle the matter.

The Party Secretary pointed out several people: "Take these people back to the Village Committee."

Afterwards, he left with his hands behind his back; it was simply too embarrassing.

The few people selected were all troublemakers in the village who were not afraid to offend anyone; they immediately grabbed the others: "Hurry up."

Over there, Peng Ailan did not want her daughter taken to the Village Committee, so she held Liu Shuqin, crying and making a scene: "My daughter is injured; you cannot treat her like this."

The Village Head, who had walked a few steps, was called back: "Village Head, what should we do?"

When Liu Quanwen served as the accountant, his relationship with the Village Head had been fairly good: "Village Head, given my daughter's situation, can we make an exception? Let us take her home first; whatever the matter is, once she..."

Although the Village Head Deng Huaiming felt some sympathy for Liu Shuqin, if he made an exception now, how could he maintain his authority in future matters? "It is not that I refuse to give you face; so many people are watching, and the matter must be clarified, so do not put me in a difficult position."
