Liu Sanya used to work in a garment factory, so she knows how to make clothes.

That day, she tied her hair into a bun and went out wearing a newly made white shirt and trousers.

After drinking the spiritual spring for a while, her skin became whiter and more delicate, and she looked charming.

She planned to go to the city to buy some ingredients on the black market to make pastries.

They even deliberately took the road near the workplace.

It really attracted the attention of quite a few young men in the village.

Although Liu Sanya looked down on these village men, she was secretly quite pleased with herself.

Many women on the street pretended not to see her when they encountered her, clearly indicating that they did not like her.

Liu Sanya was annoyed and cursed inwardly, hoping these people wouldn't come crying to her for help in the future.

She slung her bag over her shoulder and swayed away.

Many women couldn't help but gather around and chat when they saw Liu Sanya's appearance.

"The way Liu Sanya walks is so unlike that of an unmarried girl."

"Did you see what she was wearing? Her chest and buttocks were so tight, as if she was afraid no one would notice."

"The neckline is so low, what respectable girl would wear something like this?"

"I felt ashamed when I saw her wearing those clothes and pants."

"Not only is Liu Sanya a bad person, but her behavior also seems to be bad. We should tell the girls in the family to stay away from her in the future, so she won't be led astray."

"Yes, yes, I'll tell my daughter not to talk to Liu Sanya when I get back."

Qingyou was not far away, so she was not surprised to hear the women's discussion.

It's the 1970s now, and this is a rural area, so everyone's clothes are relatively conservative and loose.

Liu Sanya deliberately made her clothes and pants form-fitting, clearly showing off her curves. People of that era couldn't appreciate this at all; they would only think it was indecent.

Even if some men like to look at her, they will only keep it to themselves and will not marry this kind of woman.

If we go into the city, we'll have to hire hooligans.

However, Qingyou hasn't been focusing on Liu Sanya lately. She'll wait until Liu Sanya gets started in the black market before she starts causing trouble.

Her current goal is to win back her husband.

Gu Yanting has been discharged from the hospital and returned home. A couple of days ago, he brought his younger brother to their house to thank them.

After that, he didn't take the initiative to approach her.

Qingyou knew that he was being rather restrained because he was afraid of implicating her due to his current status.

This time, it's her turn to pursue him.

When working in the afternoon, Qingyou deliberately moved to the spot next to Gu Yanting.

There weren't many people around, and Gu Yanting frowned when he saw Qingyou digging in the ground.

She's a delicate young girl; how could she possibly do this kind of work?

Sure enough, she was having a lot of trouble digging.

He went over and helped her dig it up.

He kept his head down and worked, unaware of the sly smile that flashed across Qingyou's eyes.

She asked in a deliberately soft and coquettish voice, "Gu Yanting, why are you helping me with the work?"

Gu Yanting's ears turned red. "You saved me, so it's only right that I help you with your work."

Qingyou asked, "Then what about your own life?"

Gu Yanting said, "It's alright, I work fast. I'll finish digging for you first and then go do my own."

Qingyou certainly wouldn't reject his advances; that way, she could reciprocate, right?

"Thank you."

Gu Yanting shook his head. "It's nothing."

"You keep digging, I'll go get some water."

"good!"

Qingyou went home to get water and poured a bowl for Gu Yanting.

Watching the beads of sweat slide down his face and into his clothes, paired with his handsome and rugged face, was quite sexy.

She handed him a handkerchief, saying, "Wipe your sweat."

Gu Yanting saw the clean white handkerchief but was too embarrassed to accept it. "No need, I'll wipe it with my sleeve."

He was about to raise his hand to wipe it when he said that.

Qingyou reached out and grabbed his arm. "Your sleeve is hard to wipe, so just use my handkerchief."

Then, smiling at him, she said, "If you don't need it, I'll wipe it for you?"

"I can do it myself." Gu Yanting's ears turned red again, and he took the handkerchief to wipe them.

Then, after thinking for a moment, he said, "Stay away from me."

Qingyou pretended to be hurt, "You hate me?"

Gu Yanting glanced at her nervously, and seeing the expression on her face, he panicked and hurriedly explained, "No, it's not that I hate you."

"It's not good for you to get too close to me given my status."

Ever since he woke up in the hospital, all he can think about is Qingyou.

He knew he was like someone in a book who had just fallen in love.

But he also understood his own position and knew he couldn't give her happiness; he could only watch from afar.

Who would have thought that she would take the initiative to approach him today, catching him completely off guard.

I want to leave him ruthlessly, but I can't bear to let go.

But I was also afraid of implicating her.

Qingyou knew he was thinking that way, and smiled nonchalantly: "It's okay, I'm not afraid!"

Hearing this, Gu Yanting felt a sweet warmth in his heart, but his expression remained somewhat distant. "But I'm afraid."

He was afraid of damaging her reputation, so he had no choice but to harden his heart.

Qingyou didn't want to push her too far, so she said, "Then let's talk secretly from now on, and not let anyone see us."

"If you refuse again, I'll get angry."

Gu Yanting nodded helplessly, "Alright then."

He added, "I'll take the handkerchief back, wash it, and return it to you."

Qingyou smiled and said, "Okay!"

In the days that followed, Qingyou had private contact with Gu Yanting and gradually became familiar with him.

However, he was very careful and would keep his distance from others when they were around, for fear of affecting her reputation.

He only contacted her in private.

Qingyou thought it was quite exciting, so she didn't object.
