Chapter 5 Xia Keqing's True Face

When Xia Keqing heard this harsh voice, she felt it was familiar.

When she saw Chen Zhou and a girl standing in front of her, the girl's name immediately appeared in her mind - Xu Li.

Like the original owner, Xu Li was a college student who came from the countryside.

Her family is better off than the original owner's, and her parents support her going to college.

In this era, not only is there no tuition fee to go to college, but you will also be guaranteed a job after graduation. So for a rural person, getting into college is like "leaping over the dragon gate."

Of course, tuition and accommodation fees can be waived, but living expenses are definitely required.

Although Xu Li's family was well off, they lived in the countryside after all, and her parents only gave her ten yuan a month.

Except for the most basic food coupons, other coupons are also in short supply.

In contrast, the original owner had the support of her fiancé Shen Jichuan, with twenty yuan a month and an ample supply of various tickets.

So in Chen Zhou's opinion, the original owner's conditions are certainly better than Xu Li's.

And the most important point is that the original owner is prettier than Xu Li.

Xu Li's facial features are pretty good, except that her chin is pointed and her cheekbones are high, which makes her look a little mean and sarcastic.

But since she is young, with a little dressing up, she can be considered handsome and stylish.

In fact, if the original owner was smarter, he would have known that Chen Zhou had been "raising fish" long ago.

While he was expressing his feelings in poetic and romantic ways with the original owner, he also did not forget to keep Xu Li in his sight, enjoying her admiration and praise for him.

In the original text, after the original owner became pregnant and married him, he began to dislike the original owner for being unkempt, not glamorous, and unable to resonate with him spiritually, so he got together with Xu Li.

At that time, the original owner's parents were angry because she broke off the engagement and got pregnant before marriage, which ruined her reputation and future. They ignored her.

Her ex-fiancé Shen Jichuan no longer sent her money or tickets.

She could only live in Chen's house.

On the one hand, Chen's mother looked down on her, thinking that she was just a country woman who had gotten involved with her son before she even graduated from college and got pregnant. She thought she was not serious and a good person.

On the other hand, he was deliberately taking advantage of her, finding trouble for no reason every day and causing her a lot of trouble.

She was already a sensitive mother, she had no money, her parents had stopped contacting her, and her in-laws were always causing trouble. How could she have the mood to express her feelings poetically with Chen Zhou like she did when they were in school?

The original owner was certainly wrong, but the scumbag and the mistress who cheated on her husband were even more hateful.

It’s really fucked up. In this damn era, there is no other decent place to go except state-owned restaurants. You can meet scumbags and bitches even when you have a meal. It’s really disgusting!

Xia Keqing complained in her heart but put on a professional smile on her face.

"So it's you guys."

Xu Li took Chen Zhou's arm as a gesture of protest.

Chen Zhou also subconsciously straightened his chest.

But he was not tall enough, and standing in front of Shen Jichuan, who was at least 1.87 meters tall, he was obviously much shorter in both appearance and aura.

He was deeply traumatized.

But in order to save face, he said loudly to Xu Li: "Lili, didn't you say you wanted to eat braised hairtail? Let's order some braised hairtail!"

"You are my partner, I can't let you suffer any injustice."

As he said this, he looked at Shen Jichuan as if in protest.

Shen Jichuan frowned, not knowing what he was thinking.

Xia Keqing glanced at him quietly, "Brother Shen, these two are my classmates."

"Chen Zhou and Xu Li, they are dating."

She looked at Shen Jichuan again, and glanced at Chen Zhou, "My boyfriend, we are going to get married soon, but unfortunately, after I graduate, I will definitely follow my lover to join the army, so I won't be able to see him in the future, and I won't be able to drink at your wedding."

Chen Zhou's expression was somewhat complicated.

When Xu Li heard this, her eyes suddenly lit up.

She had always regarded Xia Keqing as her love rival, but she didn't expect that she actually had a fiancé?

She has a fiancé but she keeps pestering Azhou. How shameless!

It was not until today that she and Azhou had already had a mutual understanding, but Azhou said that Xia Keqing came from the countryside like her, and she always used this point to pester him and as an excuse to communicate with him.

He couldn't bear to reject Xia Keqing because of her.

This made Xu Li even more disgusted with Xia Keqing.

She looked at Shen Jichuan critically and found that he was really tall and good-looking.

She suddenly felt sour in her heart.

How could someone like Xia Keqing be worthy of being a soldier?

She must reveal her true identity!

It would be best if her fiancé didn't want her.

Xu Li thought viciously in her heart.

She deliberately said, "I see. It's a pity indeed. We were classmates and we would definitely invite you to our wedding. But we didn't expect it to be such an unfortunate coincidence."

"But Xia Keqing, don't blame me for exposing you in front of your fiancé. You obviously have a fiancé, so why are you still pestering Azhou? You almost made me misunderstand him."

"Azhou is kind-hearted and won't argue with you. You should know that a woman as fickle as you would be thrown into a pig cage in the countryside."

Xia Keqing had expected that Xu Li would not be able to say anything nice, but she did not expect that she would actually dare to say it.

She looked at Chen Zhou.

The relationship between the original owner and Chen Zhou had always been that Chen Zhou had been deliberately keeping her hanging.

The original owner was a rural girl and the eldest in the family. Even though she had some flaws and her ideas were overly idealistic, it was impossible for her to actively seduce men.

She is too conservative to do such a thing.

If Chen Zhou hadn't been hooking her up and talking to her about ideals, poetry and distant places, how could she have done something to betray Shen Jichuan?

Her original plan was to marry Shen Jichuan after graduation.

But Chen Zhou kept telling her that people should have their own ideals, and said that after they got married, life would remain the same as before, they would live together, and have a poetic and picturesque life together... In short, the scumbag described their married life as very beautiful.

It was just like a dream.

In comparison, one is a classmate with whom I have spiritual resonance, while the other is a blind date whom I have never met.

The balance in the original owner's heart suddenly tilted.

She foolishly believed whatever the scumbag said.

Chen Zhou felt guilty and didn't dare to look at her.

Xia Keqing couldn't let her talk nonsense and ruin her image in Shen Jichuan's mind.

After all, it was a thigh inlaid with gold. For a better future, she had to cleanse herself.

"Chen Zhou, your partner is talking nonsense and you don't care about it?"

Chen Zhou laughed dryly, "Xia Keqing, I don't understand what you are talking about."

"Before you always came to me, Lily was just a little unhappy. Now it's better to make things clear in person."

Xia Keqing was so angry that she laughed.

"Okay, let's make it clear. But before I make it clear, there's one more thing."

Chen Zhou looked at Xia Keqing, who had a natural look on her face. He had a bad feeling. Sure enough, she said, "Then return the money and the ticket I lent you first."

Chen Zhou's face changed.

Even Xu Li was stunned for a moment.

"Azhou, what money and tickets does she mean?"

Xia Keqing took Shen Jichuan's arm and said coquettishly, "Brother Shen, I can go to college thanks to you. I plan to marry you after graduation. This is what we agreed on long ago."

"I will never do anything to let you down."

The tall and strong man curled his lips and even relaxed his arms a lot.

"Chen Zhou and I are just ordinary classmates, but we got closer because we had some common interests. Although his family is from the provincial capital, he has many brothers and sisters, and his family doesn't give him much living expenses."

She paused deliberately, "He asked me, and I was embarrassed to refuse."

Never fall into the self-justification trap.

Just bounce the problem back.
