Male Lead's Canon Fodder Wife novel Chapter 1365

He frowned deeper and said, "Comrade, you should be careful with your words. Comrade Pan is married, and I don't have any relationship with her, let alone harbor any feelings. Please don't slander us and ruin our reputations."

Due to his loud voice, the people around them finally realized that they were arguing.

Seeing that more and more people were looking at them, the female educated youth wanted to stop the conversation and said, "Hmph! I won't bother to argue with you!"

The male educated youth was unhappy with her attitude and unwilling to let the matter rest.

He glared at her and demanded, "Comrade, you were the one in the wrong—talking badly about Comrade Pan and spreading rumors about me and her."

"Now you want to brush off this matter without even apologizing. Are you treating us as people who are easily bullied?" he asked.

When the villagers heard his words, one of them, who had heard the female educated youth's comments earlier, chimed in, "What educated youth? She is clearly arrogant and looks down on us!"

Hearing her words, another villager asked curiously "Sister-in-law, what do you mean by that?"

The middle-aged woman snorted and said, "I heard that comrade say that Meijia learned bad habits after marrying a villager. Even if we are uneducated, we are hardworking and honest people. What bad habits do we have?"

As soon as she said this, the surrounding villagers became offended.

A young man pointed at the female educated youth and asked, "Comrade, are you saying that we villagers have bad habits? If you look down on us, why are you even staying here? Go back to your city and be your young lady!"

The moment the female educated youth heard this, she panicked and retorted, "Who said I looked down on you? Everyone, this is a misunderstanding!"

She was sent here by the government to learn from the farmers. If she was reported for looking down on them or acting like a privileged young lady, she would be punished—or worse, sent to a labor camp.

She couldn't afford to carry that kind of stain on her record, which could also implicate her entire family. So, she could only lower her head and apologize.

"Everyone, if my words offended you, please be the bigger person and forgive me," she said, a hint of pleading in her voice.

She thought that after she apologized, everyone would let the matter go. Unexpectedly, the male educated youth poured oil on the fire.

"Comrade, do you mean that if we don't forgive you, we are petty people? Is that how you apologize? Where is your sincerity?" he asked.

At first, the villagers hadn't noticed anything wrong with her apology. But after hearing his words, they finally caught the hidden implication.

Wasn't she forcing them to forgive her whether they wanted to or not?

Instead of feeling appeased, they became even angrier.
