Transmigrated as Cannon Fodder — I Rise to Female Lead Through Hard Work Chapter 119: Holding a Mass Meeting

Yi Roujing didn’t expect that in just one day, the atmosphere in the team changed.

"Song Yiluo definitely didn’t take the team leader’s path." Yi Roujing insisted, "Didn’t the team leader co forward to refute it?"

Yi Roujing had read the content in the book, it was around this ti that Song Yiluo returned to Beijing, arranged with a job by the Song Family in Beijing, but the book never ntioned this incident before the heroine returned to the city.

"The team leader made an announcent through the loudspeaker. He’s holding a eting in the drying field tonight to personally explain." Anmin explained, "It’s probably to clarify things, but what the team leader is really upset about now is Xingye."

"Xingye feels he has implicated Song Yiluo and slapped himself in front of everyone to defend her reputation, which angered the team leader and Kaiying. This could affect how others perceive Xingye in the future when looking for a partner."

"People with soone in their heart, who in a decent family would be willing to let their daughter marry into our ho to suffer?" Anmin sighed, "But once Song Yiluo returns to the city, things should be fine. Xingye, after all, is the son of the team leader, whose conditions are better than others, so he shouldn’t have trouble finding a wife."

"But Kaiying is worried that once Song Yiluo leaves, Xingye might beco despondent. She just ca to talk to mom, eyes all red." Anmin sympathized a bit.

"We’ve looked at houses, and we’re going to handle the procedures on Monday." Yi Roujing diverted the topic since she understood the situation. Indeed, Anmin was intrigued and asked in detail, eyes full of anticipation.

At six o’clock in the evening, Dingping Production Team’s drying field was full of people, either sitting or standing. At the forefront were the educated youths from the youth point, the ones most affected by the issue since it concerned their interests, oh, except Xia Xingchen, who ca with Yi Roujing and the others.

Ding Xiaoding held a loudspeaker, standing on a makeshift wooden platform, the educated youths were loudly questioning, "Team leader, please give us an explanation as to why you allowed Song Yiluo to return to the city without a word. Is it because of so special arrangent related to Ding Xingye?"

"Team leader, are we going to attend Xingye’s wedding banquet?" a mber asked with a playful tone, seemingly more intrigued by this aspect.

"Everyone, please quiet down." Ding Xiaoding’s voice bood from the loudspeaker, "Today, I’ve gathered everyone here to address three points."

"First, Ding Xingye and Song Yiluo are not in a relationship. Other than Xingye visiting the youth point yesterday, have you ever seen the two of them alone together? If there really was anything between them, he wouldn’t openly go to the youth point to find her, so I hope everyone thinks carefully."

"Second, Song Yiluo’s return to the city was not arranged by the team. Although this period is the designated ti for educated youths to return, the na I submitted was not Song’s. You will all know who it was in due course."

"Though you may not believe , I have invited Song herself to show you the docunt regarding her return. I’ve personally brought it, and I invite a few representatives to verify it."

"Before confirming, let address the third point." Ding Xiaoding looked a bit solemn, "I have always maintained a clear distinction between public and private affairs since taking the role of team leader, particularly regarding the educated youths. I’ve made unbiased decisions in task allocations and city-return recomndations, recomnding only diligent colleagues."

"It’s surprising that so gossip led to such misunderstandings about ." Ding Xiaoding’s voice carried a strong conviction, "If any of you, like Song, possess the ability to secure a city return on your own, I certainly won’t obstruct you, I’d personally stamp the approval, ensuring your release."

"However, going forward, please be mindful of your actions and words. I’m always open to good suggestions or any perceived injustices on my part."

"Yet, if there are baseless suspicions, and people spreading them or inciting unrest, as the team leader, I won’t tolerate it. Though I can’t punish anyone, the police can. If such incidents occur again, I’ll ask the police to diate, and the consequences will be yours to bear."

Ding Xiaoding’s words brought the drying field to a complete silence, many of the educated youths turned pale. Although not all were outraged, quite a few participated. If there really was no relation between the incident and the team leader, future efforts might never erase the thorn in his heart.

Though that might just be their own assumption, what Ding Xiaoding truly thought, they couldn’t guess.

"Alright, now please co up to see the docunt, three from the youth point, and three team mbers. Examine it closely." With that, three representatives were chosen from the youth point: Guo Qianwen, the longest-staying female youth in Dingping, Wang Pengcheng, a male youth also from Jing City, and Dong Weiyong, the most respected and eldest male youth.

Once on stage, it was clear after a closer look that the docunt wasn’t submitted by the team but was issued directly from Jing City. Dong Weiyong remained unaffected, having not been involved with the others’ heated emotions and actions, he stayed out of it from the start, so it didn’t impact him.

However, both Guo Qianwen and Wang Pengcheng went pale, as they were dissatisfied and spurred by others, becoming the prominent ones in this issue. Seeing the outco, they panicked as they realized.

Once the educated youth saw the docunt, it was the team mbers’ turn, who were chosen based on literacy. Curious about the case, upon reviewing the result, they even personally congratulated Song Yiluo.

The eting ended shortly after the opportunity to review, and while the team mbers gradually made their way ho, the educated youths stayed, surrounding Ding Xiaoding as he ca off the stage to apologize.

Ding Xiaoding said little, rely reminding them to continue working hard and contribute their talents in the rural areas.

The words were impeccable, yet those educated youths involved in the matter felt quite uneasy inside.

"Song Yiluo, why didn’t you clarify things, causing our misunderstanding, and now leaving us in this predicant?" Guo Qianwen couldn’t bear it, tears fell as she spoke. Having been at the Dingping Production Team for six years, from fourteen to twenty, unable to return to the city ant she might have to marry within the team.

"I said from the start that my return to the city wasn’t related to the team," Song Yiluo replied, her expression slightly stern, "it was you who chose not to believe, and even slandered , doubting the team leader’s character. I didn’t cause your situation, you brought it upon yourselves."

With that, Song Yiluo turned and walked away, leaving Guo Qianwen to collapse on the spot, sobbing uncontrollably, feeling she might never return to the city.
