Anyone present who heard Zhang Lili say this would have thought that Ou Manqing and Yu Haiyang were a couple.
Song Meili retorted angrily, "What do you mean, 'together'? What nonsense are you spouting? You—"
Ou Manqing gently tugged at her, "Meili, let me do it."
She stepped forward and took out a letter. "Yu Haiyang, I called my dad a while ago and told him I don't like you."
He has already said that our engagement was just a drunken joke between him and Uncle Yu, and it's not real.
My dad also wrote me a letter, asking me to tell you that if you have a girl you like, he wishes you all the best.
If I have a boy I like, I don't need to be bound by this marriage agreement.
Yu Haiyang's face flushed red when he saw the letter.
He didn't look closely, but what was written on it was indeed what Ou Manqing had said.
Every word seemed to mock him for taking a joke seriously and for being self-righteous.
He looked up at Ou Manqing; her gaze seemed to see right through him.
He exposed all his dark thoughts to the light of day.
She said, "Yu Haiyang, you and I have no relationship whatsoever, whether in the past, present, or future."
Now that you're with Zhang Lili, take responsibility and don't let others look down on you.
Ou Manqing deliberately exposed their affair, thus sealing the fate of Yu Haiyang and Zhang Lili.
They could only get married, which meant that Yu Haiyang would never have another chance to get involved with Ou Manqing, or rather, the Ou family.
From then on, he could only rely on himself.
Ou Manqing also wanted to know if he could live as well as he did in his previous life without the Ou family.
Even if he has the ability, Ou Manqing will never allow him to become powerful.
If we don't shut him down, he'll become a problem sooner or later.
But for now, let's let those two ungrateful wretches get married first. We'll have plenty of opportunities to deal with them later.
Yu Haiyang also realized that he could no longer rely on the Ou family, he might not be able to return to the city, and his future was bleak.
Yu Haiyang, visibly agitated, stepped forward and grabbed Ou Manqing, saying, "Manqing, listen to me, it's not like that."
He was a man after all, and very strong. Once he grabbed Ou Manqing, Ou Manqing's hand lost all strength.
"Let go."
She couldn't break free.
Song Meili stepped forward to pull Yu Haiyang away, but was blocked by Zhang Lili.
Zhang Lili thought bitterly that it would be best if Yu Haiyang beat up Ou Manqing.
In the male educated youth's room, Zhou Huanan rushed out, trying to pull Yu Haiyang away.
Gu Yunze stepped forward first, walked over, and pulled hard, separating Yu Haiyang and Ou Manqing.
Moreover, due to "inertia," he also threw Yu Haiyang to the ground.
Ou Manqing was fine. She touched her hand and thanked Gu Yunze, "Thank you, Gu Zhiqing."
Gu Yunze nodded. "It was nothing."
Zhou Huanan also ran out at this moment, stood in front of Ou Manqing and Song Meili, pointed at Yu Haiyang and said,
“Yu Zhiqing, have you had enough? It was clearly you and Zhang Zhiqing who did that, so you should take responsibility.”
What does this have to do with Ou Zhiqing? She already said it has nothing to do with you.
Your baseless accusations against others are spreading rumors and making false statements. Ou, the educated youth, could report you.
Yu Haiyang glared at him fiercely, "It's you again, Zhou Huanan, and you, Gu Yunze. What business is it of yours?"
Stop meddling in other people's business. Manqing and I are a couple, and we're going to get married.
Manqing, Manqing, listen to me, I know I was wrong.
But our bond from growing up together isn't fake. Please forgive me this once, let's get married and live a good life together.
Ou Manqing stood ramrod straight and said coldly, "Yu Haiyang, I have already made myself very clear."
There is no possibility between us; I will never marry you in this lifetime.
She whispered again, "Don't even think about using my dad's connections to go back to the city, marry me, and have my dad use the Ou family's connections to pave the way for you."
Don't treat everyone else like fools. I know what you're thinking, and my dad knows it too.
But you want the Ou family's help, and you also have an affair with Zhang Lili. Ha, Yu Haiyang, do you think you're a piece of fat meat that I'm going to steal from Zhang Lili?
Don't be arrogant.
Yu Haiyang felt suffocated after all his secrets were exposed.
It turns out she knew everything.
She knew he wanted to return to the city and rely on the Ou family to turn his life around, but she hadn't said anything before.
Was it because of Zhang Lili's incident that she was saddened?
It's all my fault for not being able to resist the temptation. If they could have been more patient, and waited until they returned to the city, got married, and he had achieved success in his career.
If I kick Ou Manqing away then, she won't be able to deal with me anymore.
It has to be said that his idea was exactly the same as what he did in his previous life.
In this life, Ou Manqing deliberately flaunted how good Yu Haiyang was to her in front of Zhang Lili, while remaining indifferent to him in front of Yu Haiyang.
This prompted Zhang Lili to speed up her seduction of Yu Haiyang, and also made Yu Haiyang even more attracted to the gentle and considerate Zhang Lili.
When Ou Manqing realized that their relationship had progressed to the point where she could meet them secretly in the cornfield.
She inadvertently revealed that the place was quite secluded and deserted.
In fact, Ou Manqing already knew that the cornfield belonged to the third squad, the squad where Ma Lianhua, the most gossipy person in the brigade, was located.
And so everything proceeded according to her plan.
She could finally break free from the verbal marriage agreement with Yu Haiyang, and finally tie the two of them together.
Zhang Lili said in her past life that it was because of Ou Manqing that they missed out on so many happy years.
Now she's letting them be together ahead of schedule.
Let's see if they can still be so happy.
Zhou Huanan felt that Yu Haiyang was completely unreasonable. "Yu Zhiqing, did you hear that? Ou Zhiqing doesn't like you and will never marry you."
And you and Zhang Zhiqing, you've done this again today, you must give us an explanation.
Otherwise, if the team takes you two to a public execution, how will our educated youth settlement retain its reputation?
How will the villagers view us educated youth in the future?
Hearing this, the educated youth inside the house all came out.
"Yes, Yu Zhiqing, since you two have both gone to the cornfield, why don't you hurry up and get married?"
"That's right, Zhang Zhiqing is a girl. If you don't get married, how will you face people in the future?"
"I don't want to be implicated by you, otherwise we educated youth won't get any benefits."
"..."
As the leader of the educated youth team, Zhou Huanan could only issue them an ultimatum.
“Yu and Zhang, I’m giving you one day. If you don’t go to get your certificates by tomorrow, I’ll hand you over to the brigade leader.”
“Zhou Huanan, you,” Yu Haiyang raised his hand menacingly, as if to hit him.
But in the end, his hand didn't fall. He turned his head and saw that Gu Yunze had grabbed it.
Gu Yunze was strong, and his arm gripped Yu Haiyang's hand like an iron arm. Yu Haiyang felt like his hand was about to be crushed.
"Gu Yunze, what are you doing? Let go!"
