When Jin Changqing saw Gu Yuanshan, she was also very surprised, "What are you doing here?"

"I've taken care of everything," Gu Yuanshan said with a wry smile. It's all Zhu Ying's fault, causing them to be separated for so long.

Some things are not suitable to be said in public, so Jin Changqing took Gu Yuanshan back to the dormitory. That incident was not Gu Yuanshan's fault, and Gu Yuanshan had given her all his money, so she couldn't bring herself to hate him.

Jin Changqing poured Gu Yuanshan a glass of water and asked, puzzled, "What's resolved? What do you mean?"

"Zhu Ying is gone," Gu Yuanshan said with a sigh of relief.

"Dead?" Jin Changqing hated Zhu Ying, that scheming woman, to the point that she wished she were dead. She trusted Zhu Ying so much and regarded her as a confidante, but she never expected that Zhu Ying would end up coming for her position.

“I’m divorced from Zhu Ying, and Zhu Ying also had an abortion,” Gu Yuanshan said.

Jin Changqing frowned. "What? You can't bear to divorce her?"

“How could that be?” Gu Yuanshan said. “I said before that I would handle this matter, but I didn’t expect Zhu Ying to be so patient and drag it out for several months.”

He had thought it through from the beginning: he could only let Zhu Ying leave on her own. He couldn't force her to leave, since Zhu Ying's parents were quite powerful figures whom he couldn't afford to offend. But now that Zhu Ying was leaving on her own, her parents couldn't blame him.

"Changqing, now that things are resolved, let's remarry!" Gu Yuanshan held Jin Changqing's hand, his eyes full of pleading. "I've transferred to civilian work and am now working at the Public Security Bureau here. You won't have to wait for me anymore, and you won't have to live alone in this cold house anymore. We can live together forever."

Jin Changqing awkwardly withdrew her hand, "You and Zhu Ying have been married for months, do you really not care at all..."

“I didn’t marry Zhu Ying. After we got married, I never let her touch me or even sleep in the same bed,” Gu Yuanshan said firmly. “I had already thought that if Zhu Ying didn’t leave, she would have to bear all of this on her own for the rest of her life.”

She was the one who ruined their relationship, yet she still expects him to treat her well?

"Gu Yuanshan, I'm very confused right now, and I can't give you an answer." Although she couldn't let go of Gu Yuanshan, Zhu Ying was like a thorn stuck in her heart.

Gu Yuanshan nodded. "Changqing, I will come to see you often."

That night, just as Wenxi was about to go to sleep, the wound on her stomach suddenly became incredibly itchy, but she couldn't scratch it. She could only gently press it with her hand. She never expected that the wound would be so painful to heal.

Qin Mi woke up when she heard Wen Xi's voice and rushed to the bedside to check on her. "Xi, what's wrong? Is your wound hurting again?"

"My wound is so itchy, I can't help it, I want to scratch it." Wen Xi frowned, trying her best to restrain herself.

Itching, coughing, and toothache are a few things that are truly unbearable.

Qin Mi lifted Wen Xi's clothes and gently pressed her wound with his fingertips. His hands were cool and actually relieved the pain. The intense itching felt like even her soul was itching, and she couldn't scratch it.

"How are you feeling? Any better?" Qin Mi looked down at Wen Xi, their eyes meeting in the dim light.

Wen Xi nodded, "I feel better, thank you, Brother Qin."

She really didn't expect to suffer so much after being injured. It's all that damned old man's fault; she really hates him.

Seeing Wen Xi frowning, Qin Mi assumed she was still itchy, so he said, "Xi, just bear with it a little longer. I'll go to the hospital and ask the doctor if there's any anti-itch medicine I can use."

Wen Xi quickly grabbed Qin Mi's hand, "Brother Qin, it's okay, I'm not itchy anymore."

His subordinate brought him over that night and then drove the car back. How could she get to the hospital so late at night? Was she supposed to run there? If the itching was still terribly bad after all this time, wouldn't she be driven crazy by the itch?

"Brother Qin, I'm not so itchy anymore. If you come again tomorrow, please bring me some anti-itch medicine."

The next morning, Qin Mi's subordinate brought Wen Xi a packet of medicine. When Wen Xi opened it, she was surprised to find that itching medicine was inside. She was surprised that he cared so much about her, and that he couldn't wait until the evening to get the itching medicine for her.

As Wenxi applied the medicine, a deep sense of gratitude welled up within her.

The bus swayed and bumped all the way to the drop-off point in the town. The ticket seller said to Pei Jingzhou, "Comrade, the Harvest Brigade goes in through that road."

"Thank you, comrade." Pei Jingzhou grabbed a handful of candy and stuffed it into the ticket seller's hand. Then, carrying two large suitcases, he got off the bus. Seeing a woman who had just gotten off the same bus, Pei Jingzhou chased after her. "Comrade, comrade, could you tell me how to get to the Harvest Brigade?"

Lin Yiwan felt a tap on her shoulder. She turned around warily and saw a tall man with defined features, sharp eyes and brows, but a slightly yellowish complexion.

Lin Yiwan stared at the other person until he coughed, which brought her back to her senses. Realizing she had been staring blankly, she gave an awkward smile and said, "Comrade, I'm sorry, what did you just say?"

"Comrade, do you know how to get to the Harvest Brigade?" Pei Jingzhou asked again.

"You're going to the Harvest Brigade?" Lin Yiwan raised an eyebrow. "Who are you? What are you going to the Harvest Brigade for?"

Seeing the scrutinizing look in Lin Yiwan's eyes, Pei Jingzhou hurriedly took out his letter of introduction and work ID, and said, "This is my letter of introduction and work ID. You can take a look if you don't believe me. I'm here to see my sister. I haven't heard from her for almost a month, and I wanted to check if something had happened to her."

"These things can no longer prove your identity." Lin Yiwan returned the items to Pei Jingzhou. Didn't Chang Hua have these things before, but what was the result?

She was actually there on orders.

Who knows if this Pei Jingzhou is the same as Chang Hua?

Moreover, Pei Jingzhou arrived right after the incident at the Harvest Brigade, which is quite intriguing.

"Do you know a former educated youth named Wen Xi?" Pei Jingzhou asked hurriedly. "I am her second brother. Or you can call her for me. As long as she sees me, she can prove my identity."

Lin Yiwan was taken aback. "You're Wen Xi's second brother? Then why don't you have the same surname?"

“I take my father’s surname, while Wenxi takes my mother’s surname, so my brother and I have different surnames,” Pei Jingzhou explained.

Just then, a voice called out from behind, "Second Brother, Second Brother, is that you?"
