At first, Lin Nian was a little panicked, but as the summer vacation days ticked by, all that was left in her heart was resentment.
'How could this be? She was a transmigrator, so why was she being led around by the nose by a local?'
Lin Nian knew very well that in this era, reputation was extremely important. So one time, she pulled aside the older girl from next door and, 'unintentionally,' told an embellished version of the incident between Qin Jiao and Shen Yi.
After she was done, she made a point of adding, "Now, I'm only telling you. You absolutely can't tell anyone else."
Usually, when you tell someone not to spread something, it just gives them a greater desire to pass it on.
Before long, the story spread to the neighboring Three Families Village.
And into the ears of Feng Lan.
And that's what led to the earlier scene where she aggressively and passive-aggressively berated Qin Jiao.
