Gu Huanian frowned. "Just because you can't do it yourself doesn't mean you can look down on others. Do you think everyone is as stupid as you?"
"Commander Gu, I know you're trying to protect Su Li, but sometimes you have to face reality. With Su Li's grades, I think she's better off in elementary school. Sending her to take the college entrance exam is a waste of a student's spot."
Lin Zhaodi wanted to join in, but she didn't dare. She couldn't take Su Li's punches, so she just silently cheered for Qin Zhen in her heart.
Say more, and I'd better infuriate Su Li to death. She's disliked her for a long time, but she can't beat her.
"What will you say if I pass the exam?" Su Li asked calmly.
Qin Zhen subconsciously said, "Impossible, I'll eat shit if you get in."
Qin Zhen was about to say something more when she was pulled back by a fellow educated youth. Only then did she notice that everyone was looking at her with strange eyes.
Everyone sighed, saying they hadn't seen anyone bet on this.
She coughed lightly, "Anyway, she won't pass the exam."
Zhang Xia covered her mouth and chuckled, "If Su Li really gets in, are you really going to go eat there?"
Qin Zhen felt somewhat embarrassed upon hearing this, and her gaze towards Su Li became even more venomous.
"She has no chance of passing the exam," Qin Zhen said confidently.
"If you don't eat after I pass the exam, don't blame me for throwing you into the cesspool." Su Li wasn't going to tolerate it. Since she liked to eat so much, she would just throw her in and let her eat her fill.
The male and female educated youth looked at Su Li with some speechless expressions.
They didn't expect Su Li to actually take it seriously. But Qin Zhen, knowing that Su Li was not someone to be trifled with, still rushed to pounce on her.
If that person actually gets accepted, she'll be in a real bind.
The oxcart soon arrived at the village entrance, and everyone got off.
After Su Li went downstairs, she turned back to Qin Zhen and said, "When I pass the exam, don't forget your promise!"
Qin Zhen was so angry that her face was contorted, and she wished she could go up and scratch Su Li's pretty face.
Gu Huanian escorted Su Li to the courtyard gate, quickly hugged her, and then let go. "I have to go." He wanted to spend some more time with her, but it was almost time for them to leave.
Su Li grasped his large hand, somewhat reluctantly asking, "Is the mining on the mountain finished? Are you leaving today?"
Gu Huanian squeezed the woman's delicate, white hand and nodded.
"Ah Li, I'll be waiting for you in Beijing."
"Okay, lower your head a little."
Gu Huanian obediently lowered his head, and Su Li tiptoed and kissed his lips directly...
Xie Feng happened to pass by and saw the two kissing passionately, and his eyes instantly turned sinister.
Gu Huanian felt a cold gaze directed at them. Although he was reluctant to part with the woman's soft, delicate lips, he quickly released Su Li.
The look he had just received made him very uncomfortable; he could clearly sense a malice in it.
When he turned around, his eyes met Xie Feng's.
Xie Feng gave him a provocative smile.
Gu Huanian's brow twitched. Just as he was about to walk towards him, the man quickly walked away.
Su Li followed Gu Huanian's gaze and saw Xie Feng.
Who was that person just now?
"He is Xie Feng, an educated youth from the educated youth settlement."
“I don’t think he’s a good person. Stay away from him in the future. Also, don’t go out alone. Try to go with Chen Shengnan and the other women in the village.”
Su Li didn't want him to worry, so she nodded and said, "Don't worry, I'll take good care of myself."
Gu Huanian was still somewhat uneasy. Xie Feng's provocative manner and the determined look in his eyes when he looked at Su Li made him very uncomfortable.
"You must avoid that Xie Feng," Gu Huanian said, still worried. He gave the instruction again.
"I know he's not a good person, but don't worry, I'll stay far away from him." Su Li didn't want Gu Huanian to be worried about this when he went on a mission, so she quickly assured him.
Hearing her say that, Gu Huanian finally felt relieved.
Su Li isn't stupid. As long as she's wary of that person, he probably can't do anything to her.
Gu Huanian left, taking all his teammates with him and departing from the mountains of Lijiatun.
After the exam, the team leader resumed his normal work, and Su Li went back to cutting pig feed.
After Su Li finished cutting pig feed and completed her task, she passed by the cowshed and saw Gou Sheng and Tang Yue sitting on a haystack outside the cowshed.
She found it strange that Gousheng was here at this hour instead of going to school.
Su Li looked towards the cowshed and saw a man in military uniform talking to Tang Xin.
Upon seeing the people in military uniforms, Su Li roughly guessed that Tang Xin and Tang Yue were about to be taken back.
"Tang Xin, your father was a professor at our research institute, and you are no less impressive, having entered the institute at a young age. Now is a time when the country needs talent, and I am here to bring you back to Beijing."
Hearing this, Gou Sheng felt a little disappointed. He looked at Tang Yue and said, "So you're going back soon? Will we never see each other again?"
He had finally made a close friend, and secretly he didn't want Tang Yue to leave. But he also knew that only by going back could they escape their current predicament.
Her future will only get better and better.
"I don't know either"
Tang Yue was also a little reluctant to part with him. During this time, Gou Sheng had been bringing her food every few days, and the two of them had come to regard each other as good friends.
"This is for you," Gou Sheng said, handing a hair clip to Tang Yue.
Tang Yue took it, looked at the bright red hair clip, and smiled happily; "It's so pretty, help me put it on."
Gou Sheng laughed and said, "Okay."
After helping Tang Yue put on the hair clip, Gou Sheng jokingly asked, "In the future, if I ever go to Beijing, can I come find you?"
Without hesitation, Tang Yue replied, "Of course! I just don't know if we'll still be allowed to stay in our old house once we actually go back."
Gou Sheng thought for a moment and said, "When you go back, could you write me a letter? I'll try my best to get into a university in Beijing and then come find you, okay?"
Tang Yue nodded; "Okay, then I'll wait for you in Beijing."
Su Li ignored the gossip; she glanced at it a few times, then turned and left.
She went straight home, took out the chestnuts she had picked last year from her storage space, and planned to make chestnut chicken for dinner.
By the time Gousheng returned, it was nearly dark, and Su Li had already finished eating.
She guessed that Gousheng must have skipped class today to say goodbye to Tang Yue in advance, otherwise someone who values his studies so much would not skip class so casually.
Su Li said to Gou Sheng, who had just entered the yard, "The chestnut chicken in the pot is still simmering. Go get some for yourself."
Gou Sheng nodded, ladled out a bowl of rice and a plate of vegetables, and asked Su Li as he ate, "Sister, which university are you planning to apply to?"
"Beijing City"
Upon hearing this, Gou Sheng's eyes lit up; "Sister, I also want to go to Beijing University in the future."
"Of course you can! With your grades, as long as you maintain this level, you'll definitely get in. Keep it up!"
