Before Wan Qing could even speak...

An elderly woman and some other educated youths told Han Qiushi, "I know that Lin, the educated youth, doesn't live here. She rents another house."

"Lin, what are you standing here for? Hurry up and take your boyfriend." Some older women, especially some former educated youth, regretted not having cultivated a better relationship with Lin Xiaoxiao.

Lin Xiaoxiao: "......"

Why is everyone so enthusiastic? And this person really isn't my ideal partner.

However, everything Han Qiushi said was true. She believed that those things were prepared by Han Qiushi's mother. After all, apart from what her boyfriend said being false, everything else was true.

Lin Xiaoxiao is still not exposing Han Qiushi's lies.

"Alright, come with me first, let's put the things down first."

“There are too many people living in the educated youth compound, and there’s no room for all your things,” Lin Xiaoxiao said to Han Qiushi with a smile, making her point perfectly.

“Yes, yes, let me help you carry these.” A female educated youth enthusiastically helped carry some things.

"Lin's courtyard is very well renovated; it's definitely more comfortable to live in than here," a male educated youth said, looking at Han Qiushi's handsome, tall figure with a hint of envy.

I can't be like that. It would be nice to be friends with people, especially rich people. I wouldn't be at a disadvantage, right?

Seeing everyone so eager to curry favor with him, Wang Xue and Li Mei looked on with disdain.

Why have I never seen these people so enthusiastic before? Now I finally understand, they're all opportunists.

The little bit of food that each person had was quickly divided up by others.

But who is Lin Xiaoxiao? She is strong enough on her own, and with the help of Wang Xue and Li Mei, she can manage perfectly well.

Lin Xiaoxiao smiled and politely declined their help.

The four of them carried their things and headed towards Lin Xiaoxiao's courtyard.

When the group was halfway there, a figure suddenly rushed in front of them.

"Han Zhiqing" (a term referring to educated youth from southern China).

Wan Qing shouted this out in a strained voice, and only then did Lin Xiaoxiao remember why she had come here.

She came here intending to teach these people a lesson, and to teach Wan Qing and Sun Yue a lesson together.

These two are clearly not the type to stay quiet. Lin Xiaoxiao wants to keep a tight rein on them before things escalate, to prevent them from resorting to underhanded tactics later.

However, Han Qiushi's return interrupted his plans.

"What do you want?" Han Qiushi asked coldly.

Han Qiushi couldn't help but frown. This Wan Qing was really persistent. Although they had traveled together, they hadn't exchanged more than a few words.

Looking at Han Qiushi's expression, Wan Qing knew she was being a bit shameless, but she still mustered up her courage and said to him, "Han Qingqing, can I talk to you for a bit?"

"Just say a few words from the side."

Lin Xiaoxiao wanted to know what kind of trouble Wan Qing was up to this time, so her expression didn't change.

This suddenly made Han Qiushi, who was standing to the side, angry.

She's my boyfriend!!

The fact that Lin Xiaoxiao didn't refute him just now means that Lin Xiaoxiao isn't very averse to him, so she must be his girlfriend, at least in front of everyone.

Privately, he will continue to work hard.

"No need. You can say whatever you want in front of everyone. One of them is my boyfriend, and the other two are his good friends. There's nothing to hide."

Wan Qing didn't expect Han Qiushi to be so direct. For some reason, she felt very sad and realized that she had been a bit impulsive to suddenly run out.

I was utterly humiliated in front of so many people.

“I met with Han, the educated youth, yesterday.”

"I knew after spending some time with her that she wasn't good enough for you." Wan Qing stared straight at Lin Xiaoxiao, who only then realized she was being stared at.

So this guy was after me, or rather, he was after Han Qiushi from the very beginning.

This person has a handsome face, but I never expected that he would attract such a romantic interest so soon after arriving.

"Do I need your approval to decide whether I'm worthy or not? Who do you think you are?"

"So, you're saying that you're the only one who deserves it?" Lin Xiaoxiao didn't care how Han Qiushi dealt with this person, but it wasn't her style to remain silent and let others trample on her after being belittled like this.

Hearing Lin Xiaoxiao's words, Han Qiushi's expression improved somewhat.

Just as he was about to speak, he was interrupted by Wan Qing's furious voice.

"Han Zhiqing, after getting to know you over the past few days, I know you're from Beijing, and so am I. We're both respectable people."

"But this Lin educated youth is not respectable at all. I've heard that she hits people at the drop of a hat or curses them. She doesn't act like a girl at all."

"It's not even as respectable as the people of Beijing."

"Wan Qing!"

Han Qiushi's large hands, holding the gifts, were now bulging with veins. "This is the person I found myself. Even my mother is willing to give me so many gifts. And who are you?"

Are we very familiar with each other?

"We haven't even exchanged more than a few words, have we?"

"You think it's respectable to come all this way and give me a piece of your mind?"

"To put it nicely, this is a reminder; to put it bluntly, you're trying to ruin people's relationships. You're heartless."

Lin Xiaoxiao glanced at Han Qiushi in surprise. She hadn't realized that Han Qiushi, who appeared so refined, could be so sharp-tongued.

The commotion had already attracted the attention of those around them. Their gazes toward Wan Qing shifted from subtle to shocked, and finally, they couldn't help but burst into laughter.

They thought the previous educated youth were already quite mischievous, but the new educated youth were even more outrageous with each new batch.

People from the countryside are more down-to-earth; these city folks really know how to stir things up.

"When I heard this educated youth get so angry and shout so loudly, I thought he was someone related to Han, the educated youth."

"I didn't expect that they weren't even familiar with each other. Look at how protective they are of each other, they're really on good terms. And they still want to come and ruin their relationship, how shameless!"

"And this is a woman! There are so many boys in the world, why do she always stare at other women's men? Ugh, shameless..."

......

In an era where lifestyle is so strictly controlled, anyone who tries to misbehave will be locked up.

"Exactly, exactly, my sister, she's so outstanding, what are you up to?" Wang Xue was speechless at Wan Qing's behavior. Did she live by the sea? Why was she meddling so much?
