Gu Changsong finished his soup and replied, "I bought it."

Qiu Lanying nodded with satisfaction, "Since Changqing bought you a watch, you can use the money to buy other things, such as a sewing machine, which is convenient for mending clothes."

These words made Bai Ruozhen blush immediately. She wouldn't do that.

Apparently Qiu Lanying had also thought of this. "Go ahead and buy it. Then let Xiaoli make it for you."

Bai Ruozhen: “…” Could it be that she is Aunt Qiu’s biological daughter, but Xiaoli is not?

As soon as she got out of the door, Bai Ruozhen was so happy that she wanted to jump up. It was great that her brother Changqing was finally coming back.

"Comrade Bai Ruozhen, what a coincidence."

Bai Ruozhen came back to her senses and saw the new educated youth Li Wenting looking at her with a smile on her face.

"What a coincidence." Bai Ruozhen looked back at the door of the Gu family and couldn't help asking, "Are you going to Aunt Gu's house?"

Li Wenting smiled and nodded, a little shyly, "Well, I have something to do, so I'll go first."

Bai Ruozhen nodded blankly, "Oh."

Li Wenting walked into the Gu family with a smile on her face and light steps.

Bai Ruozhen stood at the door for a long time without reacting. Li Wenting knew someone from the Gu family?

Shaking his head and unable to figure it out, Bai Ruozhen went back to the educated youth point.

Zhu Guixia peeked in after returning to the house, then said, "Sister Wang Jun and that Li Wenting had a quarrel just now."

Bai Ruozhen raised an eyebrow, "Why are you arguing?"

Zhu Guixia shook her head. "I don't know. I asked Sister Wang Jun but she didn't tell me."

"Where is she?" Bai Ruozhen looked around but didn't see Wang Jun.

Zhu Guixia said, "I don't know. They just left after the argument."

Upon hearing this, Bai Ruozhen frowned. Could it be related to Li Wenting going to the Gu family?

After a while, Li Wenting came back, still smiling, and seemed to be in a good mood. She even came over to greet Bai Ruozhen. Bai Ruozhen frowned slightly and asked her, "Have you seen Sister Wang Jun?"

Li Wenting said without blinking, "I didn't see it." Then she went to do her own thing.

Wang Jun didn't come back until the afternoon, and when he saw Li Wenting, he looked even more unhappy. Li Wenting seemed not to understand what she said and sighed, "Sister Wang Jun, what did I do to provoke you that you are targeting me like this?"

Wang Jun was furious. He glanced at Bai Ruozhen and then stopped talking. Could she really say that Li Wenting had set her sights on Gu Changqing before even meeting him? He didn't know where this girl had heard that the Gu family was doing well, that everyone in the family was either a worker or a cadre, and that Gu Changqing was the most favored. If she said something without proof, no one would necessarily believe her.

Bai Ruozhen looked at the two of them and always felt that there was something fishy. When he went to bed at night, Bai Ruozhen couldn't hide his inner excitement and rolled around on the kang twice.

"Why aren't you sleeping yet?" Feng Qiujuan asked her in a daze.

Bai Ruozhen's eyes were sparkling and she couldn't fall asleep. "Sister Xiaoqiu, Brother Changqing will be back tomorrow."

"Oh." Feng Qiujuan responded in a daze, turned over and continued to sleep.

Li Wenting, who was sleeping at the end of the kang, heard it and asked quietly, "Comrade Bai Ruozhen, are you and Gu Changqing engaged?"

Bai Ruozhen was stunned. Li Wenting also knew Gu Changqing?

"No," Bai Ruozhen said, "We're getting engaged on August 14th."

Li Wenting hummed thoughtfully, "We're not engaged yet."

Upon hearing this, Bai Ruozhen felt strange. Li Wenting didn't know Gu Changqing, so why did she ask so many questions?

She drifted off to sleep, and when she woke up it was already daybreak. Wang Jun came over and shook her awake, "Hurry up, Gu Changqing is here."

"Oh." Bai Ruozhen was stunned for two seconds and then got up and put on his clothes.

Wang Jun said angrily, "Hurry up, or someone will snatch your partner away."

Bai Ruozhen was startled, "Who stole my partner?"

Wang Jun said angrily, "Who else could it be? Who did you run into yesterday? It was him. He's talking to your girlfriend at the door right now."

Upon hearing this, Bai Ruozhen frowned immediately. This was really asking for trouble. How dare he steal her man? He was so bold.

But soon she was no longer in a hurry. Even if Li Wenting wanted to snatch him away, she had to be able to do so. If Gu Changqing couldn't even resist this temptation, why would she marry him?

So Bai Ruozhen was no longer in a hurry. He put on his clothes and took the basin to wash his face and brush his teeth.

Seeing her like this, Wang Jun got anxious, "Aren't you anxious?"

Bai Ruozhen looked at her and said, "What's the point of being anxious? Just say what you want to say."

"Aren't you worried that she will snatch you away?" Wang Jun said angrily.

Bai Ruozhen sighed, "It's mine, and she can't take it away from me."

Wang Jun was so angry that he laughed, "You are so confident in him."

Bai Ruozhen curled his lips slightly and said, "Well, I believe him." After that, he took the basin and went directly to the backyard to wash his face.

After washing his face, he was stopped by Zhao Lai Di at the door. Bai Ruozhen frowned and asked, "Zhao Lai Di, what are you doing?"

Zhao Lai Di said angrily, "Your partner is about to be snatched away, and you're still not in a hurry."

"If she has the guts, just rob it." Bai Ruozhen said, "But, Zhao Lai Di, I think you are much more likable now than before." After saying that, he picked up the washbasin and left.

Zhao Lai Di glared angrily, "Who cares if you like it?"

Bai Ruozhen braided her hair and smeared some cream on her face. She glanced at the empty bottle and wondered when she would buy another one. After tidying herself up, Bai Ruozhen went out with a smile on her face.

The educated youth center is so small that they know everything. Besides, Bai Ruozhen has been here for a long time and everyone likes her. On the contrary, Li Wenting is new and came from Shanghai, so she is not very popular among the female educated youth.

As soon as she came out, someone pulled her aside and started saying bad things about Li Wenting, and then told her to go over quickly.

Bai Ruozhen thanked him with a smile and then arrived at the entrance of the educated youth center. He then saw Gu Changqing leaning against the wall with an impatient look on his face, while Li Wenting remained expressionless and was still saying something with a charming smile on her face.

Bai Ruoxin thought, Gu Changqing, you are quite smart. If you just smile a little, I will pay attention to you.
