Mo Yucheng saw a girl appear in the field from afar. She was wearing a hat that covered most of her face, so he couldn't tell what she looked like.
Judging from her figure, the girl is probably around 163 cm tall. She looks quite capable and walks very briskly, which suggests she exercises regularly.
As Song Yining walked, she also sized up the man who was looking for her. She couldn't see him very clearly from a distance, but now she realized that the man's appearance was exactly what she expected.
With sharp, angular facial features, prominent brow bones that exude strength, and a distinct jawline, the man possesses short, jet-black hair, clear eyes, a straight nose, and a delicate face with thin, tightly closed lips.
He was tall and well-proportioned, and looked elegant and eye-catching no matter what he wore.
The two sized each other up, and then Song Yining walked up to the man, breaking the silence.
"Hello, I'm Song Yining. Are you looking for me?"
"Hello, I'm Mo Yucheng, Shen Junjie's friend. I'm here to help you."
"Okay, that's how it is. I'll go ask for leave first. Please wait a bit, and we'll talk again later."
"Okay, go ahead! It's alright, take care of it, I'll be waiting for you."
She turned around and quickly ran to the team leader to explain that her family had come to visit her and that she was taking leave from work.
While waiting for the scorekeeper to record her work hours for the day, Song Yining told Zhang Datao, "Auntie, my uncle's friend is coming to see me, so I'll head back now."
The place where Shen Shiyu and her group were assigned was very close to the path. She saw a tall and handsome man, which immediately attracted her attention.
Seeing that the man was looking for Song Yining, she unconsciously clenched the bunch of weeds, looking at him with the thought that she had to snatch him away.
Shen Shiyu sat there watching Mo Yucheng, and after watching the two talk for a while, she left again.
Shen Shiyu thought she had mistaken someone for someone else, so she quickly stood up, dusted off her clothes, and straightened them.
She walked towards the man, fiddling with her body, and after a long while, she finally reached him.
"Hello, comrade, are you looking for Song Yining?"
Seeing that the man didn't answer her and instead moved away from her, Shen Shiyu felt very uncomfortable. Just then, she saw the man talking to Song Yining.
He wouldn't give her any advice, but she was like an unkillable cockroach, so stubborn that he wouldn't give up.
"Hello comrade, Song Yining is a classmate of mine who went to school together since childhood. It's nice to meet you. Can we be friends?"
Seeing that the man ignored her, Shen Shiyu, who had just been a peacock, now looked like a defeated chicken and slunk away.
Liu Qiang was furious when he saw Shen Shiyu talking to the man standing on the road, who had just accepted his help.
He was off flirting with someone else again. He put down the grass he was pulling, walked to the roadside without turning his head, and lay down under the shade of a tree with a blade of grass in his mouth.
They saw Shen Shiyu leave happily, then return in a fit of rage.
Seeing everyone looking at her made her even angrier. "What are you looking at? I got rejected. Are you smug and happy?"
Everyone looked at Shen Shiyu, wanting to laugh but not daring to, and squatted down together, whispering among themselves.
Shen Shiyu had just lost face so badly that she felt like she had fallen into a deep abyss. Only now did she realize that she had acted impulsively, and she was furious when she looked at Hao Yujie.
She glared angrily at Hao Yujie. "Why didn't you pull me back just now? Did you feel better seeing me make a fool of myself?"
With an innocent look on her face, Hao Yujie had moved to the front early in order to help Shen Shiyu with the work, completely unaware of what had just happened.
Looking at Shen Shiyu with a blank expression, he said, "How would I know? I just wanted to finish the extractions as soon as possible today so I could help you."
You complained that I didn't pull you back, but who knows what kind of trouble you'll cause this time? Right under my nose, you can still cause trouble. You're really good at making a scene.
Use your brain for work every day, instead of thinking about things that don't go around. You're an adult, think before you act, stop making a fuss all the time.
"Oh! You still say I'm here? You used to always want to stick to me, I couldn't shake you off, now you've grown up."
"Do you think I wanted this? It's because your parents thought you couldn't do the work well that they made me go to the countryside with you. Who do you think you are? You think you're some kind of treasure that everyone has to fawn over."
"But you used to follow me around all the time."
"If I hadn't followed you and been bullied by you, you'd be lucky to have been born. Don't think I don't know about your family's messy affairs; I just don't want to talk about them."
"You!" Shen Shiyu pointed at Hao Yujie in exasperation, unable to utter a word.
"What? You're too scared to talk about it? You'd better watch yourself from now on. I'll explain things to your family. I'm not going to look at you anymore. You've wasted your life growing up. You're good for nothing, except eating."
You're always so picky about this and that. How about you cook a meal yourself? Can you even do that? Have you even learned how?"
"you"
What's wrong with me?
It was your family who asked me to take care of you, so I'm doing you a favor.
"You'll only cause trouble for one day. From now on, you'll do one-third of your own work, and I'll help you with two-thirds. That's me being too lenient with you. After this month, you'll have to figure things out yourself. I'm quitting."
"you"
"What do you mean, 'I'? You really think you're a princess? Too bad you're not destined for that. Get back to work!"
Shen Shiyu and Hao Yujie were arguing, but Song Yining ignored them.
Song Yining took Mo Yucheng back to the brigade leader's house. There were people along the way. They walked along the country road, looking at the fields of wheat.
The girl walked ahead, feeling inexplicably at ease and enjoying the feeling. Mo Yucheng simply attributed it to his own exhaustion over the years.
The two maintained a proper distance. Mo Yucheng was curious why the girl wasn't afraid that he was a bad person and just left with him like that.
The two walked onto the road. "Did you come alone, or..."
"There's no one here right now, so tell me what you know first."
“I was a sent-down youth. When I arrived, the youth settlement was full, but the brigade leader and my family were on good terms, so I stayed at their house first.”
I was thinking that it wouldn't be good to stay in someone else's house for too long, so I thought I'd check out the uninhabited houses in the village where everyone was dressed in dark clothes.
I came twice in one day. The house I was looking at was pretty good, so I thought about moving out. After all, the yard wall is high, so it's safe for me to live here.
I went there twice in one day, but I didn't dare to get close. I just looked at it from a distance twice. When night fell, I felt like someone was watching me the whole time.
This isn't just a misperception; recently, people have been coming almost every day for a short while.
My senses are very sharp and never wrong. I didn't believe it, so I secretly went to check the place I sensed, and to my surprise, there really was someone there.
I'm convinced there's something wrong with that yard. How could those symptoms suddenly appear out of nowhere? It's unbelievable, and those people are very alert.
"My own abilities are limited, so I can only seek help?"
"Don't follow unfamiliar men around next time; it's dangerous."
