Chapter 115 Cute Village Girl VS Innocent Educated Youth (Part 1)
Xiaoshi Village.
As dusk fell, in the woods not far from the educated youth settlement, a young couple was arguing under a large banyan tree. It was almost dark; normally, this would be a suitable time to do something else in the woods…
"Let's break up," Cheng Jiahe said coldly.
"Cheng Jiahe, what's wrong with you now? We were fine this afternoon, weren't we?" Jiang Zhiyi wasn't one to mince words, so she naturally had to retort.
"What do you think? What did you and Chen Yunyang do this afternoon?" Cheng Jiahe felt like he was being cuckolded, and he couldn't calm down.
Back then, Jiang Zhiyi insisted on being with him no matter what.
Once, he accidentally fell and kissed her by mistake. She kept pestering him for an explanation. Eventually, he had no choice but to reluctantly agree to Jiang Zhiyi's request to be her boyfriend.
But if she becomes fickle and unfaithful, then there's no need for them to stay together.
"What did I do? There's nothing between us!" Jiang Zhiyi felt a little guilty, but she still insisted that she knew nothing about it.
Cheng Jiahe laughed in exasperation. He said, "You've forgotten so quickly? Do you need me to help you remember?"
...
Let's go back to the afternoon.
Because it's the Mid-Autumn Festival today, Cheng Jiahe's family asked someone to bring him mooncakes. Cheng Jiahe comes from a well-off family. In response to the call to go to the countryside as an educated youth, he requested to go to the most difficult place that needed talent the most.
Xiaoshi Village is located in a remote area with extremely inconvenient transportation. Going to the county town is a real hassle, and the supply and marketing cooperative here sells almost nothing. Forget mooncakes, even candy is extremely hard to come by.
Cheng Jiahe thought that since he was now Jiang Zhiyi's boyfriend, he should treat her better. So he immediately went to deliver mooncakes to Jiang Zhiyi.
"Wow! Cheng Jiahe, you're so kind to me, I'm so touched. I've never seen such a good mooncake before, it must taste amazing!" Jiang Zhiyi was overjoyed and carefully held the mooncake.
Seeing her happy expression, Cheng Jiahe felt pleased and said loudly, "Eat up."
"Shall we eat together?" Jiang Zhiyi gestured symbolically, thinking he probably still had some left.
"No, no, you eat, I have more."
Jiang Zhiyi nodded and put the mooncake away. "Thank you. I'll take it home and eat it later."
She tiptoed and kissed Cheng Jiahe's cheek.
"I...I'll go first." Cheng Jiahe's face was flushed, clearly a little embarrassed.
Halfway there, Cheng Jiahe remembered that he had a few milk candies in his pocket, which he had originally intended to give to her, but he hadn't thought of them earlier.
He knew that Jiang Zhiyi's family was relatively poor; her parents were ordinary farmers in Xiaoshi Village who had not received much education, so she probably rarely had the opportunity to eat these kinds of things.
Jiang Zhiyi shouldn't have gone far yet, so Cheng Jiahe quickly ran back.
At the place where they parted, Cheng Jiahe saw Chen Yunyang standing in front of Jiang Zhiyi. Chen Yunyang was also an educated youth sent to the countryside, and his family was also quite well-off.
Chen Yunyang took out a mooncake and handed it to Jiang Zhiyi, who took it without hesitation.
"Wow! Chen Zhiqing, you're too kind. I'm so touched, thank you. I've never seen such good mooncakes before, they must taste amazing!"
"I'm glad you like it. Happy Mid-Autumn Festival."
"Chen Zhiqing, you too, Happy Mid-Autumn Festival." Jiang Zhiyi smiled sweetly.
Cheng Jiahe watched from a short distance away, his fists clenched so tightly they cracked. She hadn't even wished him a happy Mid-Autumn Festival.
Who is she really dating now? Is she trying to have her cake and eat it too?
And that Chen Yunyang, he's up to no good.
...
Jiang Zhiyi took a deep breath. It was truly a terrible thing; how could he have seen what happened that afternoon?
Although Cheng Jiahe has a good personality and is usually hardworking, he still has some arrogance in him, after all, he is a "young master" from the city.
If she doesn't coax him properly now, they might really break up, and then her task will be in trouble.
"I didn't mean to. You know I have parents and a younger brother at home. I wanted to take the mooncakes you gave me back to them, but I didn't have any left for myself..."
“I also want to eat mooncakes. I’ve never eaten anything like this before. If you’re unhappy, I’ll give it back to him right now…” Jiang Zhiyi’s eyes were red, and tears were falling. She was extremely aggrieved.
Cheng Jiahe paused, not expecting this. He was flustered; he hadn't known she would cry.
"Do you still want to break up?" Jiang Zhiyi said, choking back tears. "I won't eat mooncakes anymore. Please don't break up with me."
Cheng Jiahe reached out to wipe away her tears, but the more he wiped, the more tears she shed. He was getting anxious. "Don't cry. We won't break up. If you want mooncakes, just tell me. I have some left. I'll get them all for you later."
Jiang Zhiyi nodded, thinking: Great, there are so many mooncakes to eat.
"I wrote you a love letter. Take it home and read it." Jiang Zhiyi had prepared it beforehand, just in case, and now it came in handy.
Cheng Jiahe, holding the love letter, had completely calmed down. He realized he had been in the wrong and said sincerely, "I'm sorry, I was too impulsive. Please forgive me."
Jiang Zhiyi didn't say anything, but stepped forward and hugged Cheng Jiahe.
Two figures nestled together.
...
months ago.
This time, the alternate world is an unforgettable story of educated youth sent to the countryside. The male protagonist, Cheng Jiahe, went to the countryside to build a remote rural area, while the female protagonist, Su Jingying, was also an ambitious young woman.
During their time in the countryside, the two helped each other and developed feelings for each other. However, Cheng Jiahe was entangled with a female supporting character at the time, so the two did not express their feelings.
After returning to the city, Cheng Jiahe broke up with the female supporting character. Not long after, he officially started dating Su Jingying.
As policies improved, the male and female protagonists' careers flourished, and they supported each other, making their story a beautiful tale.
[Master, our task this time is to play the female supporting character who pesters the male lead while he's away in the countryside, and complete her exclusive storyline.]
[Didn't you complain about the harsh conditions here? Perfect, you can find a way to get the male lead to do the work for you, spend his money, eat his food, and use his things—that fits our character perfectly.]
"Tuantuan, you really understand me." Jiang Zhiyi praised.
【Master, hehehe...】Tuantuan chuckled to herself.
...
After returning home, Cheng Jiahe immediately took out the love letter that Jiang Zhiyi had given him.
Suddenly, his expression changed.
The first sentence on the note was—
"Written for my dearest Cheng Jiahe..."
They've been together for months, and she can't even spell his name correctly?
