In fact, Xue Yanchen, who was on another team, had already seen Luo Jingyan.
And as he walked along, he kept observing Luo Jingyan and her companions. He wanted to know where her boyfriend was and what he looked like, because they might have gone hunting in the mountains together.
His curiosity was uncontrollable, but in order not to affect her relationship with her boyfriend, he decided not to greet her, so as to avoid any misunderstandings caused by her boyfriend seeing her.
When Luo Jingyan saw him, she instinctively wanted to greet him. Since Qin Zhenzhen wasn't there, she wasn't worried that Qin Zhenzhen would overthink things if she saw him.
However, when she looked at Xue Yanchen and opened her mouth, Xue Yanchen suddenly turned his head to the other side, as if he deliberately didn't want to pay attention to her.
The address she was about to use had to be swallowed back down.
It turns out that after he found a girlfriend, he didn't want to pay any attention to her at all; his heart and mind were probably filled with Qin Zhenzhen.
Before she transmigrated, she had read CEO novels. Almost all the domineering CEOs in the novels were like this. They wouldn't even give a glance to women they didn't like or even hated, because they felt that looking at other women would be a disservice to the heroine they loved.
Generally speaking, this behavior is somewhat impolite, but in a way, it shows that this kind of man is the most devoted and is a manifestation of his unwavering loyalty to his lover.
Since he didn't want to talk to her, she decided to pretend she didn't know him and try to keep her distance.
On the way up the mountain, the two teams continued to travel separately. Zhuang Feifei kept looking for opportunities to talk to Lu Chengye, but Lu Chengye was a cold person and didn't like to talk. Zhuang Feifei patiently tried to chat with him again and again, and finally they found some common topics.
Luo Jingyan followed the group forward, her attention focused on observing the road conditions, unaware that a pair of eyes were occasionally glancing in her direction from a short distance away.
Once they reached the mountain, the two teams merged into one, with Luo Jingyan in the middle and Xue Yanchen in front, and they searched for prey together.
The temperature is lower on the mountain than on the plain, and the snow has not yet melted. Animal footprints are left in the snow, and hunters can find their prey more easily by following the patterns of the footprints.
Luo Jingyan wasn't interested in wild boars, rabbits, or pheasants; she wanted to find out where there were snakes.
However, the snakes had already hibernated by this time. To find an opportunity to separate herself from the crowd, she asked Black Tiger to help her look for them.
After they had walked for a while, Zhuang Feifei suddenly screamed in the group and threw herself into Lu Chengye's arms. She pointed to the ground in terror and cried out, "Snake! There's a snake! Ah!"
The moment she threw herself into Lu Chengye's arms was witnessed by everyone present. Lu Chengye was at a loss for words, but as she held him tightly and saw how frightened she looked, he couldn't bear to push her away.
Several men in the village shook their heads, wondering if the little brat had been chosen by a pretty educated youth.
The brigade leader did not participate in this operation due to rheumatism in his legs. The Party Secretary usually did not participate in these kinds of things, and with his son being disabled and mentally unstable, he was overwhelmed and had no time to deal with these matters.
The brigade leader sent over three squad leaders. The squad leader of the third squad came over and saw a snake lying motionless on the ground. He touched it, but it didn't move. He knew the snake was dead and said, "Zhuang Zhiqing, you're even afraid of a dead snake. How dare you sign up for hunting?"
Zhuang Feifei: Can she say that she only came to seduce Lu Chengye?
If there weren't so many people around, she could have easily captured any prey if she released the fat tiger from her spatial storage.
She explained, "I'm not afraid of other animals, I'm only afraid of snakes."
Lu Chengye comforted her, "The snake is dead, don't be afraid."
He gently pushed Zhuang Feifei away, but Zhuang Feifei still looked very scared and deliberately stayed very close to him.
The squad leader picked up the dead snake from the ground and put it into the snakeskin bag he carried with him. The team continued to move forward in search of prey, their main target being wild boar.
An hour later, someone shot and killed two pheasants with a hunting rifle, and Xue Yanchen shot and killed a wild rabbit, but they still hadn't found the wild boar.
Luo Jingyan couldn't help but think of the wild boars she kept in her space. If she hadn't hunted so many wild boars here, they probably wouldn't have had such a hard time finding them today.
During the break, Zhao Jun went to find Xue Yanchen, found a stone next to him, brushed off the snow, and sat down.
"Brother Chen, I've noticed something's off about you today."
Xue Yanchen gave him a playful look: "Tell me, what's wrong with me?"
"You saw Luo Zhiqing today, but you didn't talk to her." Zhao Jun asked him in a low voice, "What happened between you and Luo Zhiqing? She didn't talk to you either. Did you two have a fight? How did you fight? Did you try to coax her after the fight... Hey, I don't need to ask anymore. I know you definitely didn't. I knew you were a cold-faced devil who wouldn't know how to coax a girl. It's true."
Xue Yanchen said, "We didn't argue, but we broke up."
"Broken up?" Zhao Jun was incredibly surprised, still somewhat incredulous. "You two moved so fast! You got together so quickly, broke up so quickly, I thought marriage would be even faster, and then having kids... sigh, I never expected you to break up halfway through. Brother Chen, to be honest, my impression of you has always been that you either don't approach girls, or once you've set your sights on someone, it's definitely with marriage in mind, you would never break up halfway. In the army, so many girls wanted to get close to you, but you didn't give them a chance, one look from you could scare them to tears. I thought you treated Luo Zhiqing differently, I never expected it to end like this. Hey, you two were doing so well, why did you break up? Did she want to break up, or did you want to?"
Zhao Jun's eyes gleamed with an incredibly gossipy light.
Xue Yanchen said, "We found that we weren't compatible after we started dating, and we both agreed to break up peacefully."
"It's that simple?"
"How much more complicated do you want it to be? Do you think dating is like going to war, where you have to analyze the enemy situation, terrain, and weather, and play all sorts of tricks and deceptions?"
"I don't know. I've never been in a relationship with anyone, how would I know so much?"
Suddenly, Zhao Jun thought of something and quietly approached Xue Yanchen.
"Brother Chen, there's something I need to tell you. I don't know if you've heard, but recently there's been a lot of gossip going around our educated youth settlement and the village. They're saying you're all good-looking, but unfortunately, you're impotent. They're saying that if a woman marries you, she'll be a widow for life, and it's better to marry a good-for-nothing. Tell me honestly, is it because Luo, the educated youth, heard those rumors and is afraid of being mistreated if she marries you that she wants to break up with you?"
He was immediately stabbed in the eye by Xue Yanchen.
"That's not the reason."
"No? Then she just doesn't know your true abilities. I think if she did, she definitely wouldn't be willing to break up with you."
Xue Yanchen gave him another sharp look: "You know quite a lot." As if he had witnessed his strength.
