Chapter 139 A Two-Pronged Approach



Two women got out of the car.

It was Chu Qiuyu and Cheng Xi.

Cheng Xi was the saleswoman. When she returned to the Chu family and cried, she happened to see Chu Qiuyu swooning over a guy in the living room.

But at that time, her foot was still wrapped in bandages.

That's why it's been delayed until now.

After making inquiries, Chu Qiuyu learned that the woman who took her to the hospital that day was named Su Qiao, and she was an educated youth from Qingshui Brigade.

Remembering what that person had said, she dragged her injured leg out to calm them down.

She pretended to be in love with Lu Xiangze.

Those fools, as expected, had no suspicions.

Today, Chu Qiuyu wanted to find an opportunity to curry favor with Su Qiao.

Cheng Xi always enjoyed joining in Chu Qiuyu's fun.

She likes to use Chu Qiuyu as a control group.

Chu Qiuyu is such a waste of being born into such a good family; she's become a lovesick fool.

She was even happier when she heard that she had actually taken a liking to a countryman.

He was determined to make this marriage happen.

Auntie will definitely be angry then.

Those carefully prepared dowry items were hers.

Cheng Xi felt increasingly pleased with herself.

A sudden clap of thunder startled Cheng Xi.

When Chu Qiuyu arrived, she found that she couldn't find anyone.

Everyone is rushing to harvest in the fields.

The whole village was unusually quiet.

Chu Qiuyu and Cheng Xi were both bewildered in the wind.

The wind is quite strong now; Cheng Xi has seen similar scenes before.

I knew the rain would be heavy soon.

He was just about to persuade Chu Qiuyu to leave.

But then Chu Qiuyu was seen standing by the roadside looking into the distance. She went up and knocked on the door, but no one answered.

Suddenly, a dark thought flashed through Cheng Xi's mind.

Who knows what might happen to Chu Qiuyu, such a delicate girl, if she were left in the countryside in this kind of weather.

Thinking of this, Cheng Xi clutched her stomach.

"Qiuyu, my stomach hurts so much."

Chu Qiuyu gave her a disdainful look. What kind of trouble was this cunning woman causing now?

"so?"

"I know you don't want to go home yet, could you have the driver take me home first?"

Chu Qiuyu looked into her eyes and said nothing.

Cheng Xi felt a chill run down her spine.

Just when she was about to break down, Chu Qiuyu agreed.

Cheng Xi clutched her stomach as she got into the car.

The driver didn't start driving immediately, but instead asked Chu Qiuyu a question.

Wait for her to nod.

Then they drove the car away.

Just as the car was about to leave, Cheng Xi suddenly saw a familiar figure.

Isn't that the guy who acted like a big spender the other day?

These clothes look pretty ordinary.

As expected, he was just putting on a show of wealth, Cheng Xi thought about the money that person had spent.

He immediately laughed.

What's a farmer doing pretending to be rich? He's probably already spent all his family's harvest for the year.

The gloom that had been lingering in Cheng Xi's heart dissipated instantly.

The thought that Chu Qiuyu would also be in trouble soon filled him with double the joy.

Cheng Xi chuckled softly.

The driver felt a chill run down his spine.

We've finally almost finished the harvest today.

Su Qiao usually displays considerable strength, and this time she was assigned to carry grain.

They were responsible for delivering the processed rice to the granary first.

There's no time to dry them now, so we can only prepare to put the rice away first.

The barn is a bit far away, but it's an absolutely dry place, so it won't flood even if it rains.

Su Qiao was carrying two large bags of grain past Chu Qiuyu when...

She almost missed it.

Fortunately, Su Qiao's skin tone is noticeably different from the people here.

It was as white as a beam of light.

That's how she was able to discover it immediately.

She immediately followed.

Talking incessantly.

"Sister, you were the one who took me to the hospital that day, right? My name is Chu Qiuyu."

"I know your name now, Sister Su Qiao, right?"

"Sister, you're so strong! There were so many people passing by, and you were the only woman there."

"elder sister……"

Su Qiao held her breath and didn't want to pay attention to Chu Qiuyu, who was covered in mosquitoes behind her.

The mountain path was narrow and covered in moss.

Chu Qiuyu almost couldn't keep up.

Su Qiao didn't look at her; this was the last wave.

The temperature has dropped, and it looks like it's about to rain.

After the scorekeeper recorded everyone's work points, everyone went home.

Chu Qiuyu caught up in time.

Many villagers nearby saw this and started making jokes.

"Teacher Su, you have a tail following you. Is it a relative of yours?"

Su Qiao glanced back and casually shook her head.

"I don't know him."

These words broke Chu Qiuyu's defenses.

They immediately began to refute the claims.

"Sister Su Qiao, have you forgotten? That day, I fell off my bicycle, and you were the one who took me to the hospital."

Su Qiao certainly remembered her, but she didn't understand her thoughts, so she naturally wanted to distance herself from her.

"I don't remember. It's about to rain, and it's not safe outside. This lady should go home as soon as possible."

Chu Qiuyu would never agree to that.

She squatted on the ground, wanting Su Qiao to coax her.

The children around her were laughing.

"This older sister is so old, yet she's still squatting on the ground throwing a tantrum. Shame on her!"

"Ha ha ha ha……"

The children's laughter irritated Chu Qiuyu, who immediately stood up and looked at Su Qiao, who had already walked away.

They caught up very quickly.

"Clatter".

Raindrops pounded on the ground, leaving thumb-sized watermarks on the yellow mud.

Su Qiao has arrived home.

They were just about to close the gate.

One hand stopped between the two doors.

Su Qiao stopped.

They saw Chu Qiuyu gripping the door with one hand, bent over and panting heavily.

The little leather shoes on his feet were covered in yellow mud spots.

"Wait... phew... wait. I have something to say." Chu Qiuyu felt like her throat was on fire before she caught up with Su Qiao.

I never expected this pretty lady to walk so fast.

What exactly do you want?

"I want to thank you."

"We all know what happened that day; you did it on purpose. What exactly was your purpose?"

Chu Qiuyu's eyes grew brighter and brighter as she listened.

"You're so smart!" Chu Qiuyu exclaimed sincerely.

Su Qiao: ...

Why is she suddenly praising him? She has never met someone so overly familiar in this day and age.

Su Qiao is about to close the door again.

Chu Qiuyu decided to stop keeping her in suspense.

She recounted everything that had happened to her over the past few days.

"A few days ago, someone found me..."

This person was a friend of Chu's father, so he knew Chu Qiuyu's personality; he liked good-looking people.

One day, this person found Chu Qiuyu.

Tell her there's someone who's very good-looking, and he'd be perfect as her boyfriend.

He would inform her when he had news; that day was one he had specially arranged.

When Chu Qiuyu first saw Lu Xiangze, she did indeed think he was very handsome.

But he has a bad personality.

Moreover, he was only kind to Su Qiao.

Chu Qiuyu is a bit of a fangirl, but not stupid.

Moreover, after discovering that Su Qiao was even more beautiful and charming, he decisively decided to find out about their plans and tell Su Qiao.

These people are clearly not good people.

And they even planned to make a move against Su Qiao.

Su Qiao, a girl who is both beautiful and strong, is the kind of girl she wants to become.

She must protect her beautiful older sister and prevent those bad guys from succeeding...

Chu Qiuyu's words implied that those people were all after Lu Xiangze.

Su Qiao listened selectively to a portion of it.
