Before Wen Xi's rebirth, she only knew that the world she lived in was a novel.
But she wasn't the female lead; she was just a passerby with few scenes. Her elder sister, while their ...
"This is my place. If you need anything in the future, just come and find me. Uncle Wang and Aunt Chun have taken good care of me before, so please don't be shy. Consider this my way of repaying Uncle Wang and Aunt Chun!"
Wenxi must be having a hard time living alone in the countryside. Now that they've reunited, if she goes to his place, he can improve her meals.
Wen Xi took the note Qin Mi handed her. "I understand, thank you Qin..."
Before Wen Xi could finish speaking, Qin Mi said, "We're from the same hometown, and our families have a good relationship. From now on, just call me Brother Qin!"
"Thank you, Brother Qin." Wen Xi smiled and nodded. They were neighbors, but she had never met them before, since she was born later. However, her parents knew Qin Mi, so it was normal for her to call him Brother Qin. Otherwise, should she call him Uncle Qin?
“Brother Qin, this is my childhood friend Shen Jiaojiao, and this is my friend Jiang Yue, whom I met on the train when we went to the countryside. The three of us are living together now,” Wen Xi introduced.
"Brother Qin, hello, I'm Shen Jiaojiao. My home isn't far from Xiaoxi's, and I've heard some things about you," Shen Jiaojiao said with a smile.
She never expected to meet the legendary person.
"Hmm." Qin Mi responded indifferently and then fell silent. Her completely different attitude instantly chilled the atmosphere at the table.
At this moment, Qin Mi's subordinates brought over a light meal. Qin Mi was not feeling well and could not eat meat or greasy food.
“Brother Qin, we’ve finished eating. We have other things to do, so we’ll head back now. We’ll definitely visit you again when we have time,” Wen Xi said.
Qin Mi nodded. "Okay, you're welcome to come and see me."
Wenxi and her two companions got up to leave. Just as they reached the entrance of the state-run restaurant, a man outside suddenly walked up to them and stopped.
Wen Xi looked at the man in front of her in confusion. Although his appearance had the characteristics of this era, with a square face, thick eyebrows and big eyes, his hair looked as if it had been smeared with lard, making him look very greasy.
"Hello comrade, I'm Hao Yuxin, and I work at the winery. I've taken a liking to you, and I want to be your girlfriend. From today onwards, we're in a relationship," the man named Hao Yuxin said confidently.
He had just witnessed that the man this comrade had saved was Director Qin. If he could get in touch with Director Qin, he could rise to prominence.
He wasn't interested in Wen Xi herself, but rather in the fact that Wen Xi had saved Director Qin's life. Of course, he was also satisfied with Wen Xi's beauty, but if she didn't behave, he naturally wouldn't be so lenient.
Looking at the greasy yet confident man in front of her, Wen Xi sneered, "Comrade, please go home and take a good look at yourself. You look like a toad, and you want to date me? You may be blind, but I'm not."
Hearing Wen Xi's direct words, Hao Yuxin's face turned extremely ugly, while the people around her couldn't help but burst out laughing.
"Comrade, although I'm not particularly good-looking, I have a great job. I work at a winery!" Hao Yuxin was very satisfied with his job. He felt that a good job made up for any other shortcomings.
Of course, he was just a porter at the winery, and a temporary one at that, but he would never say that. Once he got on Director Qin's good side, he wouldn't just be a permanent employee, he'd probably be sitting in an office as a manager!
Looking at Hao Yuxin's greasy and confident appearance, Wen Xi almost vomited. She really didn't expect that there would be such a shameless person.
"Do I really have to spell it out? Fine, I'll spell it out then: you're too ugly, uglier than a wild boar on the mountain. Just looking at you makes me want to vomit. Do you think I'd date you? Now, can you step aside?"
Wen Xi was about to leave after she finished speaking, but Hao Yuxin actually reached out and stopped her, saying, "You have to be my girlfriend today, or I won't let you leave."
"What? You want to abduct a woman?" Wen Xi sneered, then said to Shen Jiaojiao, "Comrade, please go to the Public Security Bureau and find Director Yan. Tell him that his sister was eating at a state-run restaurant when someone harassed her and tried to abduct her."
"Comrade, don't worry, I'll go right now." Shen Jiaojiao was very cooperative and rushed outside as soon as she finished speaking.
Hearing this, Hao Yuxin felt incredibly uneasy, but he didn't want to miss such a good opportunity. If he could get in touch with Director Qin and Director Yan, not only him, but probably his whole family could rise to prominence.
A fawning smile appeared on Hao Yuxin's face. "Comrade, isn't it because I saw how beautiful you are and fell in love with you at first sight, and want to marry you? Is pursuing you considered being a pervert?"
"Is this how you pursue me? Do you even know how to pursue someone?" Wen Xi looked at him with a cold smile. "Inviting you to dinner, buying you clothes and watches, taking you to the movies... have you done any of these things? You just talk the talk and you think you can get a wife? Ask all the parents sitting here, which family would agree to marry off their daughter so hastily? If you don't know how to pursue someone, go back and ask your father how he pursued your mother back then!"
"Of course, you just threatened me, so this won't just end like this today." Wen Xi sneered inwardly. What pursuit? Hasn't he been forcing her all along?
Is it really that great to work at a winery and earn only 20 or 30 yuan a month?
Qin Mi walked over and said in a serious but cold voice, "No need to go through the trouble of calling the police. Just take him away and notify his workplace to deal with this matter seriously."
Then Qin Mi's subordinates grabbed Hao Yuxin, who was unable to break free and was taken away.
It was only at this time that Wenxi realized that Qin Mi's social status was higher than Yan Zheng's. If only she had met Qin Mi sooner, Qin Mi's trip to the countryside would have been much more effective than Yan Zheng's.
Thinking of this, Wen Xi caught up with Qin Mi and whispered, "Brother Qin, I'm working in the countryside in Fengshou Brigade. Could you come visit sometime when you have time? Is that alright?"
"Even if you hadn't mentioned it, I was planning to visit you sometime anyway, don't worry!" Qin Mi smiled at Wen Xi and then left.
When educated youth go to the countryside, all sorts of things happen. Now that he has met the little girl next door, he naturally wants to protect her for Uncle Wang and Aunt Chun and not let anyone bully her.
When everyone saw Hao Yuxin being taken away like that, they all thought to themselves, "You can't judge a book by its cover. You can't afford to offend anyone when you're out and about."
After all, you can't tell what kind of relationship someone has just by looking at them.
Hao Yuxin really messed up today, didn't he? But luckily it was Wen Xi. Wen Xi has powerful backers who can punish him. If it were any other woman, she might have really been entangled with Hao Yuxin!
