Seeing that Hou Zheng was competing with him, Liu Xiangqian's expression turned somewhat unpleasant, but he still maintained his composure and asked, "Who else?"

Everyone shook their heads.

"Then Comrade Hou Zheng and I will vote."

Liu Xiangqian cut out eight small slips of paper and distributed them to everyone.

Most of the people present took out pens and wrote their votes while covering their faces with their hands, but Ye Weiwei boldly wrote Hou Zheng's name on the paper, unafraid of being seen.

The brushstrokes are unrestrained and fluid, carrying a sharp edge!

Liu Xiangqian narrowed his eyes.

The voting results came out quickly.

Hou Zheng was elected as the head of the educated youth settlement with five votes, while Liu Xiangqian lost with three votes.

Upon seeing the result, Liu Xiangqian's smile finally faded. Without saying a word, he stepped aside and gave his seat to Hou Zheng.

Hou Zheng readily agreed, thanking everyone for their trust before explaining the recent task at the educated youth settlement: adding an ideological progress class after labor, leading everyone to study the Little Red Book.

This was originally arranged by the village chief, and no one had any objections, so the meeting ended just like that.

Just as everyone was eating, Ye Wanwan returned.

She was dragged by Sun Jinbao to get a marriage certificate, but the Sun family wouldn't even give her a meal, saying that her food rations hadn't been taken to the Sun family at the educated youth settlement and that she should eat there.

Ye Wanwan was furious but had no choice but to return.

Anyway, she'll have to come back sooner or later to pack up her things.

But seeing that everyone was eating and no one paid any attention to her, especially Ye Weiwei and Xu Meijun who were chatting and laughing without even glancing at her, Ye Wanwan was still furious.

"Ye Weiwei, you've ruined me so badly, are you satisfied now?"
