At these words, both Zhao Yong and Xu Wensheng changed color.
Could it be that the Brigade Leader had set a trap for them tonight? Did he not realize how miserable the life of an Educated Youth would be if they were framed as a thief? Not only would they be unable to return to school, but they would likely be trapped in this place forever, cast aside by the local villagers! This was effectively ruining their entire lives. How could they ever forgive Zhou Hongjun for such a malicious act?
Just as the two male Educated Youths were showing their wariness, the Brigade Leader said with a blank expression, "That was your own suggestion; I never agreed to it. I only told you to stop talking nonsense and to apologize when the people arrive. If you continue to be so obsessed with your 'Brother Hongjun,' then I will send you to the Public Security Bureau myself and let you keep Zhou Hongjun company."
