Lu Youxi thought about it and made up his mind to go in the direction of Grandma Xu's house.

Just as I walked to the door of Grandma Xu's house, I heard Xiaofen's voice in the yard, "Brother Xu Mai, even if you don't like me, you don't have to be so rude to me! Have I ever offended you?"

"I haven't offended you. You spread rumors about my relationship with Lu Youxi everywhere." Zhou Shuyan said coldly.

"No...I didn't say that!" Xiaofen denied it flatly, "I don't know how such a thing could be spread."

"But, the last time Lu Youxi came to see you, it was in broad daylight, so I must have been more than just the one who saw it! Who knows who in the neighborhood might have seen it? How can you say that I was the one who spread it?" Xiaofen argued.

"Get out!" Zhou Shuyan said bluntly.

"Xu Mai! I came to see you with good intentions! We had a quarrel last time and it was indeed my fault. I wanted to come and apologize to you and make peace with you. Why do you keep having this attitude?" Xiao Fen said unconvinced, even her voice became sharp.

"We've never gotten along well, so why should we get along?" Zhou Shuyan sneered, "Or do you also want gossip about you and me to spread in the village?"

Xiaofen paused for a moment, her eyes rolling involuntarily, and she really considered this possibility seriously.

If the village started to spread gossip about her and Xu Mai, her family would definitely force Xu Mai to marry her.

Her family is not like the Lu family that favors boys over girls.

She is such a sweetheart at home.

On the other hand, Xu Mai's origins are unknown and he has no home.

If her family forced Xu Mai to marry her, Xu Mai would have no choice but to agree.

Apart from Hexing Village, Xu Mai had nowhere else to go.

Zhou Shuyan saw Xiaofen's reaction. What else did he not understand? A strong mockery suddenly appeared on his face.

"Xu Mai." A familiar voice suddenly came from outside the door.

Zhou Shuyan looked over in surprise, and saw that Lu Youxi was smiling abnormally gently, with sweet smiles in her eyes. Her crescent-shaped eyes were looking at him wholeheartedly, as if he was the only one in her eyes.

Zhou Shuyan was so shocked by Lu Youxi's abnormal attitude that he couldn't react and stood there like an idiot.

There was even an illusion that Lu Youxi liked him wholeheartedly.

Even the heart began to beat faster and faster uncontrollably.

Zhou Shuyan frowned and subconsciously raised his hand to cover his heart.

What the hell is going on with this disappointing heartbeat?

At this time, Lu Youxi had also walked to Zhou Shuyan's side, turned around and looked at Xiaofen with a smile, "Why are you here again? Didn't I just chase you away last time?"

"If you can come, why can't I?" Xiaofen said angrily. When she saw Lu Youxi, her eyes turned red with anger.

"Xu Mai chased you away but didn't chase me away, so of course I have the nerve to come here. But it's you who made such harsh remarks last time, but you came here again this time. Are you so shameless?" Lu Youxi sneered.

Xiao Fen's eyes turned red with anger. She pointed at Lu Youxi and Zhou Shuyan, shaking back and forth, "The rumors in the village are really true. You two are having an affair!"

"Don't talk nonsense. I came to visit you openly in broad daylight. How can it be considered as having an affair?" Lu Youxi rolled his eyes to the sky. "You don't want me to use this excuse to fight back and say that you and Xu Mai are having an affair, so that you can ask your family to force a marriage?"

Xiaofen: “…”

How could Lu Youxi say that? Zhou Shuyan: "..."

What kind of brain circuit is this?

"You don't believe it?" Lu Youxi saw Zhou Shuyan's expression that said "this idea is totally sick", so he pouted towards Xiaofen and said, "Look at her expression, did I say it right?"

Zhou Shuyan: “…”

It really is...

Unexpectedly, he was still careless.

Because he was surrounded by smart people like Lu Youxi and Grandma Xu, he was misled.

Zhou Shuyan suddenly became serious and began to reflect on his thoughts.

The stability he lived in Hexing Village after his birth made him careless.

Zhou Shuyan suddenly felt that if he said any more words to Xiaofen, he would appear stupid, and for a moment he was speechless because of Xiaofen.

But he still had to say, "I can't even remember your name, so it's useless even if you spread rumors about us. If your family really forces me to get married, won't I run away? You also know that I came from an unknown place, my home is not here, I'm alone, and I have no worries. Isn't it easy for me to leave?"

Xiaofen: “…”

She...she really hadn't thought of this...

Zhou Shuyan: “…”

Seeing Xiaofen's reaction, he realized that he had overestimated Xiaofen's IQ.

"No thanks." Zhou Shuyan said coldly to Xiaofen.

Xiaofen pointed at Lu Youxi unwillingly, "Then why is she still here!"

"Aren't people in the village gossiping about the two of us?" Lu Youxi raised his eyebrows. "It just so happens that you saw it today. You can go out and continue to spread it. What a great opportunity."

"I'm not afraid of gossip, so don't worry about me." Lu Youxi said to Xiaofen.

Then, Zhou Shuyan said something that hit Xiaofen the hardest, "I know her, but I don't know you."

Xiaofen: “!!!”

"Ha!" Xiaofen was furious, her face flushed with anger, and she pointed at Lu Youxi with jealousy, "Okay, okay! I wonder what will happen to the two of you! Xu Mai himself said that he is alone and can leave whenever he wants. Don't let him cheat you out of your money and body, leaving you with nothing!"

After Xiaofen finished speaking, she strode out of Grandma Xu's yard.

"Come to get the admission letter?" Xu Mai turned around and asked Lu Youxi, not seeming to be affected by Xiaofen at all.

"No, I have something to discuss with you." Lu Youxi said, "Let's go inside and talk."

Lu Youxi was unusually serious, just like when he was waiting for him outside Grandma Xu's house in the middle of the night.

Zhou Shuyan looked at her quietly for a few seconds before nodding and going into the house with Lu Youxi.

The two of them sat in the living room, Lu Youxi sat on the sofa, and when the time came, he finally felt a little uneasy.

She clasped her hands together tightly, entwining her fingers.

Zhou Shuyan lowered his eyes and saw that her fingertips were so tangled that they turned white.

"Is there anything you want to tell me?" Zhou Shuyan sat down opposite Lu Youxi.

Unlike Lu Youxi's nervousness and awkwardness, Zhou Shuyan seemed much more at ease, his whole body exuding a sense of casualness, ease and control.

Lu Youxi has always known that escape is not a solution. In her previous life, she saved Lin because she never escaped and rushed to the end with all her strength.

Today is the last round of pk. The difficulty of pk is getting higher and higher. I am begging for your collection and recommendation votes, five-star praise, and comments. Hehe, please!
