Chapter 24: Winning

After working for eight hours overnight, everyone feels exhausted and just wants to get off work quickly and go home to sleep.

Dai Qing simply washed her face in the workshop and followed the crowd out. As soon as she walked through the corridor, someone approached her.

"Comrade Xiao Dai, we are going to the park during our break. You should come with us. It will be more lively with more people." Liu Ming appeared beside her with a smile on his face, his tone so gentle that water could drip out of it.

Dai Qing stared at him like an idiot, and once again lamented that she was blind in her previous life. How could she fall in love with such a thing?

Before she could open her mouth, her arm was grabbed.

"Hiss~, what are you doing?"

Seeing Li Xing looking at her with hostility, Dai Qing was speechless.

"I've told you so many times that what happened between you has nothing to do with me. Don't you two understand what I'm saying?"

"You liar, didn't you say you didn't like him? Why did he invite you to the park?"

Li Xing said this, her eyes reddened, looking at Liu Ming with resentment.

"And you, what did you promise me? Didn't you say you only like me? What are you doing now?"

Seeing Li Xing suddenly appear, Liu Ming's face turned ugly and he scolded her in a low voice, "Don't embarrass yourself here."

"What about you? Isn't it embarrassing to flirt with other women in front of my real friends?" Li Xing was so angry. One by one, they were flirting with each other right under her nose. Did they think she was blind?

Dai Qing raised her hand and pinched her brows, cursing in her heart, her eyes cold, "You two are both sick, go see a doctor if you are sick, why do you always involve me?"

Fuck it, I can’t help it.

If this continues, she won't be able to wait for the right opportunity and will take action.

Liu Ming looked at Dai Qing's dark face, and pulled Li Xing to the side. He didn't know what the two said to each other, but he saw Li Xing covering her face and running away crying.

Other people’s feelings had nothing to do with her, so she was naturally in no mood to care about them. She walked all the way to the vegetable market, bought two fried dough sticks and a bowl of steamed tofu pudding, took them home, ate them, fell asleep immediately, and made up for the lost sleep.

I slept until three in the afternoon and was woken up by my stomach protesting.

I got up, washed, cooked, and just as I finished eating and was digesting my food in the yard, Aunt Wang came over and said, "Xiaoqing, you're up. Is it hard to work?"

"It's OK. I'm adapting well."

"That's good. This kind of shift system at least gives me two days off. I'll get used to it." After a few words of idle chat, Aunt Wang explained her purpose. "Meet at Ruida Restaurant at 2:30 tomorrow afternoon. This is the address. It's very convenient to get there by bus."

"Okay, I'll be there on time." In fact, she was also looking forward to it. This was her first serious job.

After seeing off Aunt Wang, Dai Qing turned around and saw Liu Ming strolling across the street. She frowned. Was he staring at her?

What is this guy who doesn't do anything without profit planning to do?

When Liu Ming saw her, he ran over with joy on his face. Dai Qing didn't even look at him, turned around and went home, slamming the door.

Looking at the closed iron gate, Liu Ming stopped, stared at the small courtyard in front of him with burning eyes, and pursed his lips.

He asked around and found out that the girl's grandfather had just died and she was now all alone. It was such a waste for her to live in two rooms with a yard.

Their family of five was squeezed into two rooms. My sister was squeezed together with my parents, with only a curtain between them. They had to queue up to use the toilet every day.

If he could get Dai Qing, these two rooms would be his. They were so spacious that he could lie down in them for as long as he wanted.

He is determined to get both the person and the house.
