Chapter 103 Shi Yu was completely subdued.

Caught off guard, the young man was startled.

He instinctively took two steps back.

Composing himself, the young man looked up and exclaimed, "Shi Jiaojiao?"

That's right!

The person who suddenly rushed out was none other than Shi Jiaojiao, who was determined to reap the benefits.

Perhaps it was the calculating glint in Jiao Jiao's eyes that made the young man feel a chill run down his spine. He quickly asked, "Did you need something from me?"

"nonsense!"

Shi Jiaojiao pouted.

Then, she stepped forward and whispered something in the young man's ear.

"What?" The young man was taken aback, then shook his head vigorously, "No...no...absolutely not..."

He couldn't do something so despicable.

"Is that not allowed?"

Shi Jiaojiao gave a cold laugh, determined to succeed.

She had already figured out the other party's background.

He was poor, idle, and always trying to take advantage of others.

Thinking of this, Shi Jiaojiao took out ten yuan from her pocket.

This huge sum of money was all her assets. Over the years, she had managed to save up her private savings through various means.

Although it hurts, you can't catch a wolf without bait, so I had no choice but to give it up.

"Is this okay now?"

The young man's eyes were fixed on the ten yuan in Shi Jiaojiao's hand.

"Gurgle!"

He swallowed hard.

Ultimately, what little conscience remained was defeated by greed.

The young man couldn't help but reach out for the ten yuan, then clutched it tightly in his palm as if afraid someone would snatch it...

...

The young man arrived at the fish's house.

Standing at the door, he called out a few times, "Is Shi Yu home?"

Hearing the sound, Shi Yu quickly came out. "You were looking for me?"

"Yes!" The young man nodded.

He felt a little guilty, but when he pressed the ten yuan inside his clothes, he immediately felt at ease again.

"Lu Yizhou sent me. The logistics department of the town's central hospital sells chili seeds. If you want some, go there to buy them."

"The logistics department of the Central Hospital?" Shi Yu asked, puzzled. She stared at the young man and asked, "Does the hospital sell chili seeds?"

Why does she think this is so absurd?

The young man's eyes flickered. "Maybe it's a side job!"

"Anyway, I'm not quite sure either."

"I've delivered what Lu Yizhou asked me to say, so I'll be going now."

Shi Yu's eyes were too sharp.

The young man, feeling guilty, didn't dare linger. So, after saying what Shi Jiaojiao had told him, he quickly turned and left.

Staring at the other person's back, Shi Yu seemed to be deep in thought.

only……

Before she could think about it further, Huang Ying came out.

"YuYu, all packed up, let's go! Time to get to work."

"good!"

Nodding, the mother and daughter went out to the dock.

...

Shi Jiaojiao was naturally there at this time as well.

She is washing fish.

The weather is getting cooler now, and with the northerly wind blowing, the sea temperature is getting lower and lower.

My hands felt incredibly cold when I immersed them in the seawater.

During this period of work, she has been washing fish all the time, and her once fair and tender hands have now been ruined.

The skin is rough, and in some places it has cracked.

"hiss!"

Shi Jiaojiao gasped when she accidentally scratched her hand with a fishbone.

His mouth twitched from the pain.

Just then, footsteps stopped beside her.

Shi Jiaojiao subconsciously looked up.

Just then, a fish passed by her and, unexpectedly, heard her painful cries, so it stopped in its tracks.

At this moment, before Shi Jiaojiao could even conceal her pained expression, she was caught off guard by Shi Yu's condescending gaze, which was scrutinizing her with a half-smile.

This contrasted sharply with her disheveled appearance.

Shi Yu has a delicate, fair face, is dressed neatly and beautifully, and has a particularly elegant demeanor.

Feelings of inferiority made Shi Jiaojiao's face turn pale and then flushed.

Furious.

She was about to explode, "Shi Yu, you..."

However, before Shi Jiaojiao could finish speaking, Shi Yu withdrew her gaze and walked away.

Disdain, indifference.

They didn't take her seriously at all.

Shi Jiaojiao was dumbfounded.

His eyes bulged, and he was so angry he almost vomited blood.

Because such contempt is more damaging than direct confrontation or verbally abusing her.

But then, Shi Jiaojiao thought of something.

The expression on his face finally eased.

Just wait!

Once she has used others to do her dirty work, and has successfully married Lu Yizhou (besides Shi Yu and Xu Manyu), she will not only be able to heal her hands, but she will also have everything she could want!

...

During a break from work, Shi Yu went to help someone get something and unexpectedly ran into Lu Yizhou.

The two of them stopped in their tracks at the same time.

A short distance apart, their eyes met in the air.

Sizzle sizzle!

A profound and meaningful atmosphere slowly spread.

"Cough cough cough... cough cough cough..."

Lu Yizhou was, after all, a man, so after clearing his throat twice to break the awkward silence, he prepared to take the first step toward reconciliation.

But before Lu Yizhou could even move, a figure rushed over in a hurry.

The grass is in season.

She came up to Shi Yu, panting, and suddenly grabbed her hand.

“Cousin, Lin Zhicheng told me that he’s coming to the island again tomorrow. When you go there, make some of his favorite dishes and he’ll forgive you.”

"Then you can be together again."

"By the way, cousin, do you know what Lin Zhicheng likes to eat?"

"Oh! You must know, after all, you loved him so much before, how could you not know his tastes and preferences?"

Shi Cao's honest, smiling face was covered in beads of sweat.

Shi Yu: "..."

Caught off guard, she was completely dumbfounded.

Lu Yizhou paused in his steps.

He frowned, his eyes darkening slightly.

He immediately stopped walking towards Shi Yu and instead walked slowly forward without looking to the side.

When Lu Yizhou passed by Shi Yu, Shi Yu's heart suddenly tightened.

"Wait!" Without even thinking, Shi Yu blurted out.

Lu Yizhou stopped in his tracks.

His deep gaze was fixed ahead, complex and unfathomable; no one knew what he was thinking. "Something wrong?"

Just two simple words, spoken in a low, hoarse voice.

"I……"

Shi Yu frowned.

That obvious indifference and aloofness made her feel uncomfortable.

She paused for a moment, then slowly said, "The young man who came to my house this morning, did you send him?"

"yes!"

Thank you.

"You're welcome!"

If Lin Zhicheng is willing to forgive her, then she no longer needs him as a tool to be used.

So Lu Yizhou didn't linger and left after finishing his sentence.

The fish did not move.

She turned her head and took a deep look at Lu Yizhou's back before pursing her lips.

never mind!

No need to explain.

Since Lu Yizhou's heart is entirely devoted to his childhood sweetheart Xu Manyu, why should she be superfluous?
