Chapter 106 Trying to have your cake and eat it too, aren't you afraid of drowning?



Jiang Min was initially attracted to the man's good looks, but after being politely rejected, she felt resentful and had a strong desire to conquer him, so she used her invincible trump card—a sugar-coated bullet.

Whether it was offering to buy her clothes at the restaurant at the beginning, or later offering to buy her lots of delicious food under the guise of thanking her for her guidance, she refused both offers.

Helpless, he could only take a roundabout approach, buying a large quantity to distribute to everyone, hoping to make her feel indebted, which cost him a lot more money and tickets.

To his surprise, Xie Yuyao ignored him and looked at him with a half-smile.

He was furious, which only strengthened his obsession.

Originally, after graduation, everyone was supposed to return to their respective production brigades. He was worried that there would be fewer opportunities in the future, but Dr. Zhuang came up with a brilliant idea.

If the two of them become his students, and feelings develop over time, he will surely win their hearts and avenge his previous humiliation.

Who knew she was so short-sighted and ungrateful, giving up such a rare opportunity to return to the city.

"Xie Zhiqing, do you know what a great opportunity you've missed?" He leaned closer to Xie Yuyao, lowering his voice as if he were disappointed in her.

"What you call a good opportunity isn't my cup of tea."

Jiang Min scoffed, "What's your type? Marrying a country bumpkin, toiling in the fields?"

"When did it become your business to interfere in my affairs?" Xie Yuyao retorted sarcastically. She had clearly refused completely, so who gave him the nerve to do that?

Unexpectedly, Jiang Min gritted her teeth and growled, "Xie Yuyao, you know perfectly well how I feel!"

"Jiang Minzheng, you know perfectly well that I have a boyfriend! Your behavior is enough to be considered hooliganism!" Xie Yuyao sneered and continued, "Moreover, don't think I don't know what you're up to."

"You..." Jiang Min, who had always been the one to reject girls, was now furious and embarrassed. "Don't forget your situation. As a sent-down youth, you finally have the chance to return to the city, but you want to ruin your life for a man!"

"Jiang Minzheng, has no one told you that this kind of condescending attitude is unsightly?"

Xie Yuyao had seen many people like this in her past life. "You've toyed with the feelings of many girls, haven't you? How dare you set your sights on me? I don't know what's wrong with you."

Before he could even offer a defense, Xie Yuyao issued an ultimatum: "If you dare to cause any more trouble, I'll go and ask Doctor Zhuang to settle this matter. Let's see if he still wants to take you in after your thuggish behavior!"

Jiang Min, whose weakness had been exposed, looked indignant: "Ungrateful!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he flicked his sleeves and strode away.

Xie Yuyao chuckled and turned to the side, only to see Dr. Zhuang standing in an inconspicuous corner, looking at her with a half-smile.

"......" Why does it feel like being caught talking badly about someone behind their back?

Dr. Zhuang smiled meaningfully and left without saying a word.

Unbeknownst to Xie Yuyao, as he walked, the scene of Jiang Min talking to Xie Yuyao just moments before flashed through his mind, and his brows furrowed involuntarily.

Could it be that Jiang Minzheng's humble and studious demeanor was all an act?

It seems he needs to investigate further before making a decision.

But this investigation revealed something extraordinary: Jiang Minzheng had actually caused many girls in Lijia Gou Brigade to become jealous and engage in open and covert struggles over him.

With an attitude of "not taking initiative, not refusing, and not taking responsibility," he has been juggling multiple relationships and is not afraid of falling into the water and drowning.

Before Dr. Zhuang could retract his order, trouble broke out in Lijia Gou.

It turned out that Jiang Minzheng and Xie Yuyao were called away by Dr. Zhuang, a scene witnessed by many people.

When he returned to the team in Lijia Gou, his teammates saw that he looked angry and asked him curiously what Dr. Zhuang wanted to see them about.

Jiang Min proudly announced, "Dr. Zhuang has accepted me as his disciple. In a few days, I will be going back to the city with him to study at the military hospital."

His teammates congratulated him outwardly, but inwardly they were filled with jealousy. Why did all the good things happen to him?!

Back in Lijia Gou Brigade, news spread like wildfire that Jiang Minzheng and Xie Zhiqing from the neighboring Qingshan Village had been taken in as disciples by Dr. Zhuang.

Upon hearing this, Li Hongmei, the daughter of the captain who left midway, ran out to confront Jiang Minzheng.

As soon as he stepped out the door, he was stopped by a girl next door who had a crush on Jiang Minzheng. She said sarcastically, "Someone is afraid of hardship and fatigue, and he didn't keep a close eye on her for a while. Jiang Minzheng is about to elope with the female educated youth next door. In the end, his love was misplaced."

The girl genuinely believed Xie Yuyao was traveling with her, since no one could have imagined that Xie Yuyao would foolishly reject this opportunity.

Li Hongmei got so angry that she started fighting with the man, ending up in a disheveled and filthy mess.

At the educated youth settlement, Jiang Minzheng held a lavish banquet for the entire educated youth team.

The humiliation and defeat he suffered from Xie Yuyao were washed away by this group of men and women who fawned over him.

Sitting in his superior position, he looked down at the group of educated youth and community members who were attracted by his money, and regained a sense of superiority.

Look, these are the normal people. Xie Yuyao will regret it sooner or later!

Suddenly, he saw an unexpected figure—Li Hongmei.

She was carrying a bottle of high-end liquor as she gracefully approached.

It turned out that after Li Hongmei was taken home, she was given a fresh new look.

Looking at her haggard reflection in the mirror, her gaze gradually hardened and hardened.

She changed into her favorite clothes and dressed up, then opened a bottle of expensive liquor at home, poured in a packet of unknown powder, shook the bottle, and headed to the educated youth compound.

When the people in the educated youth compound saw her arrive, they all stopped talking, and their eyes fell on her with either mockery or ridicule.

Ignoring the onlookers, Li Hongmei walked up to Jiang Minzheng and said with a coquettish smile, "Brother Minzheng, is it really appropriate for you to host a dinner without inviting me?"

Jiang Min awkwardly tried to cover it up: "I sent someone to invite you, didn't he pass on the message?"

"No, who did you call? I want to ask him properly if he even respects me." Li Hongmei persisted.

Jiang Min laughed it off: "Well... there were too many people at the time, I forgot. You've come at the perfect time, come and try this braised pork, it's absolutely delicious."

Seeing that he was changing the subject, Li Hongmei smiled coldly, splashed the wine in Jiang Minzheng's glass behind her, and filled her glass with the liquor she had brought.

"Can someone get me a wine glass?"

A male educated youth fawned over her and handed her an empty cup. She was the brigade leader's daughter, and making friends with her would bring many benefits.

Li Hongmei didn't even glance at the man. She poured the liquor into a glass, picked up a glass in each hand, and handed it to Jiang Minzheng. "Brother Minzheng, let's drink this cup together as a farewell toast."

Jiang Min didn't want to answer; he felt that Li Hongmei had been behaving well today, perhaps because he had overstimulated her.

"What? The person hasn't even left yet, and you're already embarrassing me like this?" Li Hongmei threatened fiercely.

Jiang Minzheng then realized that if her father blocked the way, he would be in endless trouble.
