Qin Zhen laughed as he watched Lin Qinghuan argue with him. Of course, one should fight back when treated unfairly; otherwise, what's the difference between them and a fool?

Looking at Qin Zhen's kind smile, Lin Qinghuan felt that someone like him shouldn't be harmed by a bad woman like Lin Piaoxue.

“My sister was spoiled since she was a child. My parents doted on her and rarely let her do any housework. If any of you want to marry her, you must treat her well. It would be best to hire someone to take care of her meals every day.”

Qin Zhen asked with a smile, "What about you? Aren't you going to marry into a good family?"

Lin Qinghuan rolled her eyes and said, "Do I have a place in a good family to marry into?"

After Lin Qinghuan finished speaking, she turned and left. She still had to pick wild ginseng and didn't have time to waste with them. Besides, she didn't have any ambition to marry a rich and handsome man.

As Lin Qinghuan walked, she hummed the song "Little Cabbage": "Little cabbage, green and yellow, lost its mother when it was two or three years old, and lived well with its father... My brother eats noodles and I drink soup, holding up the bowl of noodles with tears in my eyes, dear mother, dear mother..."

As Qin Zhen listened to Lin Qinghuan's singing, he felt inexplicably sad, and he even had an urge to protect her.

Lin Piaoxue's face was very ugly. Lin Qinghuan was slapping her in the face. She regretted her impulsive act of reaching out to pull Lin Qinghuan.

Looking at Lin Piaoxue's fair and delicate hands, and then recalling Lin Qinghuan's rough hands, Qin Zhen's dark and bright eyes flashed with a hint of mockery.

Qin Zhen looked at Lin Piaoxue and asked curiously, "Lin Piaoxue, why are you dressed so beautifully, but your sister's clothes have patches? Your hands are fair and tender, but your sister's hands are so rough and have scars. Did your family pick her up? Since your family raised her, why don't you treat her well?"

"Lin Qinghuan is indeed my biological sister, not adopted," Lin Piaoxue hurriedly explained.

Upon hearing Lin Piaoxue's words, Qin Zhen was even more confused about the Lin family. Why were they so biased towards each other when they were all daughters of the Lin family?

"Lin Qinghuan is your own sister, yet she is treated so differently from you. It's truly baffling. I've never seen a family so biased. This is quite an eye-opener," Qin Zhen said.

Lin Piaoxue's lips moved slightly, but she finally lowered her head in frustration. It was best for her to say nothing now, lest she say more and make more mistakes, which would be a greater loss than gain.

Lin Zixin said, "Brother Qin, it's because Lin Qinghuan has a bad personality. She's always gloomy and not likable."

Qin Zhen's expression darkened slightly as he said, "Don't judge others so easily; it's very impolite."

Lin Qinghuan is such a good girl, so much better than Lin Zixin and Lin Piaoxue, yet they look down on her.

Qin Zhen looked at his companion standing beside him and said, "Wang Bin, let's go."

Wang Bin smiled at Lin Piaoxue and Lin Zixin and said, "We have to go now."

Wang Bin felt that Lin Piaoxue's eyes were full of calculation, and Lin Zixin was impulsive and brainless. He didn't like either of them. He preferred girls like Lin Qinghuan, who were straightforward, cheerful, and brave. In particular, Lin Qinghuan's bright and charming eyes were exceptionally captivating.

As Lin Piaoxue watched Qin Zhen and the others walk further and further away, her eyes were filled with a mixture of resentment, disappointment, and shame, before she quickly regained her composure.

It was all because of Lin Qinghuan, that jinx, who ruined her plans, but she didn't give up. Lin Piaoxue had never failed to get what she wanted.

Qin Zhen, you can't escape. You will definitely be my husband, Lin Piaoxue's husband.

Qin Zhen felt a gaze on him from behind. He turned around and saw Lin Piaoxue looking at him with an air of certainty. He felt a surge of disgust. This woman was so arrogant, thinking he would be fooled by her pretentious act like those other men.

When Lin Piaoxue saw Qin Zhen turn around, she immediately gave him a sweet smile.

Wang Bin chuckled and said, "I never expected to encounter such a cunning woman in this remote place."

Qin Zhen snorted coldly and said, "It's just a trivial skill, not worthy of being considered high art."

Wang Bin thought of Lin Qinghuan and sighed, "It's just a pity for her younger sister, Lin Qinghuan, to grow up in such a family. I hope she will meet a good man who treats her well in the future and have a better life."

Qin Zhen paused slightly, his eyes flickered, wondering if Lin Qing was a good man.

Lin Qinghuan arrived at the place where she had seen the wild ginseng last time, a happy smile spreading across her face. These were all small change.

Lin Qinghuan bent down to pick some wild jujubes and then put them in the bag.

Time passed by unnoticed. Lin Qinghuan stretched and, seeing that the sun was about to set, bent down again to continue picking wild ginseng. She had to finish picking this patch of wild ginseng.

Lin Qinghuan breathed a sigh of relief after finally finishing picking the wild ginseng. Looking up, she saw that the sun had already set, the sky was dark, and everything around her was quiet. Her heart tightened, and she picked up the bag and hurried home.

Lin Qinghuan walked along the bumpy mountain road, her feet never stopping on her way home. As the sky grew darker, Lin Qinghuan's heart pounded with unease.

The wind rustled the leaves, which pushed against each other, making a soft, whispering sound, like someone whispering in the woods.

Suddenly, a strange "ya ya" sound came from the woods in the distance. Lin Qinghuan paused for a moment, a chill rising from the soles of her feet and spreading throughout her body, making her tense up and fear grip her heart.
