Yue Keqi was unwilling to go back like this.

“But… this place hasn’t been rebuilt yet, and the villagers have only just recovered and are still very weak. We should stay and help them. Besides, didn’t we discover recently that someone was secretly poisoning the well? The matter hasn’t been resolved yet, why are we leaving?”

"This is the order from above. The task we were given is to cure the villagers' cholera. As for the reconstruction work, local government personnel will take over."

"Regarding the poisoning incident, the original well has been completely sealed off, and several other wells have been dug for the villagers' drinking water, so there is no longer a risk of infection."

"But……"

Yue Keqi was still somewhat unwilling, and spoke hesitantly.

Just then, Gu Pingwei returned from outside.

Yue Keqi quickly made another excuse, saying, "I heard that Pingwei's leg ailment has suddenly worsened. He should stay here and rest for a few more days. How can his body take such a rush back?"

Jiang Jingxue didn't take it seriously at all.

"He deserved it; he brought it on himself. Who else can he blame?"

Gu Pingwei was very cooperative.

"My leg injury is nothing serious and won't have much of an impact."

Gu Pingwei took two hard-boiled eggs out of his pocket.

"The villagers insisted on giving it to me when I went out just now."

He peeled an egg and handed it to Jiang Jingxue.

"The other one is for Panpan."

Jiang Jingxue naturally took the egg from Gu Pingwei and took a bite.

When she got to the yolk, she put it into Gu Pingwei's mouth.

"I don't like egg yolks, they're a bit dry. You eat them."

Gu Pingwei used her hand to help her eat the egg yolk.

Seeing how the two of them interact, they seem as intimate as a real married couple.

Pingwei actually ate the food that this woman had eaten without any disgust!

Yue Keqi felt both jealous and furious.

"Jiang Jingxue, you! Are you deliberately trying to provoke me?!"

She now strongly suspects that Jiang Jingxue deliberately flirted with Gu Pingwei in front of her, showing off her relationship with Gu Pingwei. How shameless!

Yue Keqi looked down at her worn-out clothes.

She knew that her current outfit was incredibly tacky, not only tacky but also ridiculously ugly.

Could this also be Jiang Jingxue's scheme, deliberately making her look ugly in front of Brother Pingwei?

Yue Keqi was furious. She ripped off her headscarf, slammed the bamboo basket to the ground, and angrily ran out.

Jiang Jingxue and Gu Pingwei looked at each other in bewilderment.

I didn't expect her to react so strongly when she heard that she was going back.

"Should we go out and take a look?"

"It's alright, I'll have Chen Hong keep an eye on things."

Half an hour later.

Chen Hongqing selected the good people to report to Gu Pingwei.

"Major, all personnel are assembled and ready to depart at any time!"

Where is Yue Keqi?

Gu Pingwei asked a question.

After all, he was the commander-in-chief of the disaster relief efforts.

The safety of everyone must be guaranteed.

"Miss Yue is in the last car."

"Alright, let's go!"

At Gu Pingwei's command, the vehicles slowly began to move.

It was at this moment that...

Yue Keqi, who was originally sitting in the last car, suddenly pushed open the car door and ran towards Gu Pingwei's direction.

Just now, she threw things in a huff and ran out.

When gathering the people, he deliberately sat in the last car.

But after thinking it over, she felt that such an action was meaningless, merely creating an excellent opportunity for Jiang Jingxue to be alone with her.

no!

She absolutely cannot give up like this!

Yue Keqi ran quickly to the car where Gu Pingwei was and pounded on the door.

"Open the door!"

Jiang Jingxue raised an eyebrow.

"Weren't you going to take the last bus? What are you doing here?"

Yue Keqi said matter-of-factly, "That car smelled too strongly of gasoline, it made me feel nauseous and carsick, so I wanted to ride in this one."

There were five seats in the car: the driver and Chen Hong in the front passenger seat.

Gu Pingwei and Jiang Jingxue sat in the back row.

Gu Pingwei has difficulty walking and cannot move around easily.

Yue Keqi could only open the car door on Jiang Jingxue's side.

"Walk inside a bit!"

Considering that she had behaved quite well these past few days, Jiang Jingxue didn't say much and moved to the middle.

Yue Keqi got into the car and slammed the door shut.

"Alright, let's go!"

On the way back.

Jiang Jingxue felt drowsy.

Her head swayed back and forth with the car's bumps, without any support, and she looked very uneasy.

Gu Pingwei couldn't bear to watch any longer, so he gently lifted Jiang Jingxue's head and pressed it against his shoulder.

"Sleep leaning against me."

Sure enough, having a human cushion is much more comfortable.

Jiang Jingxue rested her head on Gu Pingwei's shoulder and snuggled closer, sleeping soundly.

Yue Keqi, watching from the side, could only stare helplessly, feeling incredibly jealous.

She clenched her fists so tightly that her nails almost dug into her flesh.

That shameless woman! She's such a seductress!

He dared to take advantage of Pingwei in front of her.

Who knows what they might do when no one's around! It's absolutely outrageous!

Just then, the car suddenly ran over a rock.

The violent turbulence nearly sent Jiang Jingxue, who was still sound asleep and completely unprepared, flying out of the room.

Seeing that Jiang Jingxue was about to be thrown off her seat, Gu Pingwei quickly reached out to help her.

"careful!"

Yue Keqi reacted quickly and grabbed Jiang Jingxue's arm first.

She didn't help Jiang Jingxue out of kindness because she was afraid she would fall.

I just didn't want Gu Pingwei and Jiang Jingxue to have any more physical contact, so I took the initiative!

"Pingwei, don't worry, I'm keeping an eye on her. Your health isn't good, so your priority should be taking care of yourself."

Yue Keqi looked at Gu Pingwei with a gentle expression and spoke in a very soft tone.

Gu Pingwei didn't say much, just nodded.

"Thanks."

Jiang Jingxue politely thanked Yue Keqi and sat down again.

Yue Keqi reluctantly turned back, and facing Jiang Jingxue, whom she disliked, she immediately changed her attitude.

She warned him in a low, menacing voice, "Jiang Jingxue, you better behave yourself! Don't try any tricks! Don't think I don't know what you're thinking. I advise you to sit still and not cause trouble for Brother Pingwei!"

Hearing the same harsh words that hadn't changed, Jiang Jingxue couldn't help but yawn.

"Yue Keqi, if you hadn't come over so early in the morning and disturbed my sleep, would I be so sleepy right now?"

"Or, how about I lean on you and sleep? So your Pingwei can get some rest?"

Jiang Jingxue's two sentences were enough to break Yue Keqi's defenses.

How come this woman always manages to leave her speechless? Putting aside the facts, doesn't Jiang Jingxue have done anything wrong?

Yue Keqi was both angry and anxious.

"Jiang Jingxue, how shameless of you! You're a woman, how can you say such things!"
