Chapter 98 The Ugly Girl from the Countryside 20
Chapter 98 The Ugly Girl from the Countryside 20
The carriage slowly made its way into the village. As they neared home, Sun Ping'an finally couldn't help but reveal his plans, "Qingyu, I'll be leaving soon. I know your ambitions; you want to go to university, and you will definitely go..."
"I just hope that you can contact me as soon as you go to university."
By then, he should have matured enough to shield his beloved from the storms of life and provide her with a life of wealth and luxury.
Thinking about all this, Sun Ping'an's sadness at having to leave finally eased a little.
He wasn't upset that he didn't get a reply from Qingyu. He respectfully escorted her home, put her things away, and then silently went into the kitchen.
Qingyu casually flipped through the medical book without even looking up.
However, her hands constantly stroking the pages betrayed her unease.
The system approached in surprise, "You're not actually interested, are you?" Although Sun Ping'an was indeed quite good-looking, with his cooking skills, he was definitely a perfect stay-at-home husband!
But Qingyu has a "nun" personality; she only flirts and never takes responsibility!
Qingyu wasn't angry at being interrupted; instead, she seemed amused and poked the system's forehead. "What are you thinking about all day? I was just thinking about whether we should buy another house in the city."
The system was surprised, "You have money?"
Qingyu straightened her back as a matter of course. "They gave it to me willingly, so you can't say I'm wrong, can you?"
System: "..." Hmm, this is its greedy jade, it hasn't changed after all.
With these thoughts in mind, Qingyu also began to review her books. She had decided to study traditional Chinese medicine in college, not only because it was her forte, but also because this skill was applicable in both ancient and modern times!
It's so profitable!
Doesn't having money guarantee a good life?
Days passed by, and every day brought new excitement to the educated youth settlement. First, Li Ziqi was pestered by Lai Er to "take responsibility," then Chang Jiaojiao was exposed for stealing, and then Su Yining and Jiang Yuan got into a fight...
People who are usually quite harmonious are now in an extremely strange atmosphere.
But everyone knows that, in the end, they all just wanted to make sure that the person they loved saw them first!
They don't want to lose to others!
These issues were giving the brigade leader a headache, as he was afraid that other villages would find out and report them. However, due to the identities of the individuals involved, he could only try to downplay the problems and leave after saying a few words.
As a result, the people who came to see Qingyu changed from groups to individuals. Liu Meifen came the most frequently, doing whatever Qingyu did. She even wanted to move into Qingyu's house, but Qingyu firmly refused.
Time flew by and the end of the year arrived. The village was filled with joy. The brigade leader distributed grain and slaughtered a pig to share with everyone. Although each household didn't receive much, it was still a joyous occasion.
Qingyu didn't earn many work points, and she basically stopped going to work later on. However, even though she didn't, many villagers kept bringing her things, and even the children couldn't help but secretly give her candy.
The villagers couldn't bring themselves to harbor evil thoughts towards someone so beautiful that words failed them; they only wanted to befriend Qingyu.
Not to mention that Sun Ping'an left behind a large amount of money and tickets before he left, as well as the male and female protagonists at the educated youth settlement...
Qingyu had the most carefree and comfortable New Year this year.
Chang Jiaojiao and the others, unusually, did not quarrel, but instead went to Qingyu's house together and cooked New Year's Eve dinner together.
At that moment, Qingyu lay quietly on the rocking chair, the moonlight shining through the window and outlining her graceful figure.
Her skin was as white as snow, and her long hair cascaded down the rocking chair like a waterfall, swaying gently with the chair's movement.
Her fingers rested lightly on the armrest of the rocking chair; her fingers were long and slender, and her nails were neatly trimmed, making her a captivating sight.
At that moment, time seemed to stand still for her. Although everyone was busy with their own tasks, their eyes kept glancing over to her.
"Qingyu, I'm going back to the city after the New Year." Su Yining squatted down beside Qingyu, gazing tenderly and reluctantly at the person in front of her.
Qingyu glanced sideways, raising an eyebrow slightly. "Congratulations."
Those two simple words sounded incredibly bitter to Su Yining.
He didn't want to leave. Even if he could stay in the countryside forever, he was willing to give up everything as long as he could be with her.
But things have changed too much. Jiang Yuan is too ruthless. The two families have fallen out. Grandpa's health in the city is deteriorating. And then there's the real reason Sun Ping'an left...
Su Yining was getting anxious.
He used to think of himself as a chosen one, outstanding in every way. Now, in front of the person he loves, he only hates that he is not good enough and is afraid of being inferior to others.
"I'm only going back temporarily. I'll come back, Qingyu. Don't forget me. I'm the one who will always protect you."
The man's affectionate and pleading words were deeply moving, but Qingyu, having heard them so often, felt only annoyance. She yawned slightly, a blush spreading across her fair face, making her look as delicate and beautiful as a flower.
"Is the food ready?"
Su Yining shook her head dejectedly, "Almost there. Are you hungry? There are pastries over there."
"No need, just call me when the food is ready. I'm going to take a nap." After saying that, Qingyu closed her eyes, her face calm, as if she were slowly falling asleep.
Su Yining looked down intently, her heart pounding with a mixture of fullness and a sharp, stabbing pain.
He was in pain because he was not getting a response.
But the fact that he can still stay by her side is a luxury.
"you are leaving?"
Chang Jiaojiao walked over, her face much paler, and her once lively eyes had lost their sparkle. Only when she caught sight of the beauty lying on the rocking chair did her eyes regain a bit of life.
"I'll take good care of her after you leave," Chang Jiaojiao said with a hint of arrogance, as if she were showing off.
Su Yining scoffed, "Mind your own business first."
Chang Jiaojiao froze, a hint of annoyance appearing on her face.
During this period, she and Li Ziqi were indeed locked in a fierce battle. Last time, Li Ziqi falsely accused her of stealing and ruined her reputation. Although she returned everything, in the eyes of outsiders, she was still seen as someone who was restless and made enemies.
For a period of time, she dared not look at Qingyu, nor did she dare to ask Qingyu if she knew about those things.
"Since you're leaving anyway, I'm still better than you no matter what!"
"Keep your voice down." Su Yining frowned and reminded her coldly. Seeing that Qingyu had not woken up, she got up, unwilling to continue talking to Chang Jiaojiao.
Chang Jiaojiao glared at him fiercely, then looked longingly at the person on the recliner before quietly leaving.
Qingyu's eyes flickered slightly, and she slowly opened them, gazing calmly out the window.
The plot has changed so much; the male lead actually left early, while the female lead is unable to leave.
Tsk, the entanglements between these people are getting more and more interesting.
Qingyu slightly curved the corners of her lips into a cold smile.
