After hearing this, Xu Manman was still touched. "I can't reply to you now. You... I don't recommend you wait. You have many choices in your life. You really don't have to..."
"I'm willing to do that. Anyway, you don't have anyone you like right now, and you don't hate me, which means I still have a chance. Unless you completely hate me, I won't give up."
Don't be so confident, young man.
Xu Manman had no choice. She didn't have any good experience to deal with this situation, otherwise she wouldn't have been single until her death in her previous life.
"Um, I'm going to dig bamboo shoots, you can do whatever you want." After saying that, he fled with the bamboo basket on his back.
Xue Mingxin hurried to catch up with her, digging bamboo shoots and wild vegetables not far from her. On the way back, he wanted to help Xu Manman carry the backpack, but she firmly refused.
He was not unhappy about being rejected. He followed Xu Manman and reached out to help her hold the bottom of the backpack to reduce her burden.
He still had a sense of propriety and separated from them in advance when they were almost at the educated youth point, which made Xu Manman feel relieved.
In the days that followed, whenever Xu Manman finished work or was not at the educated youth site, she would always follow Xue Mingxin closely, helping her carry firewood and carry things for her. Xue Mingxin would always be within three steps of Xu Manman.
Xu Manman tried to avoid him several times, and changed several hilltops like last year, but within a day, Xue Mingxin would find her at the foot of the mountain.
Now it really became that he was chasing her and she couldn't escape. She had been watching Xue Mingxin's good show before, but now it was her turn. It really was a matter of time.
Xu Manman wanted to ask him to stay away from her several times, but when she met Xue Mingxin's pitiful eyes, Xu Manman couldn't say anything.
He actually used the beauty trap on her, how unethical!
It's really a sweet and heavy burden.
Later she just gave in and let him be. With such a beauty following her all day long, helping her carry bags and things, why should she be unhappy? Anyway, they have no official status now, so she doesn't have to be responsible for anything.
Later, she got used to this way of getting along, and after getting familiar with each other, they would chat about everything.
Xue Mingxin is worthy of being the hero of the novel in Xu Manman's mind. He has a positive outlook and clear logic. Because of his family background, he has a broad vision.
No matter whether it is study difficulties or trivial matters in life, he can always continue the conversation with Xu Manman. It must be said that this way of getting along is very comfortable for Xu Manman.
The two people approached each other. The other people at the educated youth point didn't know, but Li Min and Chen Meizhi, who still had fantasies about Xue Mingxin, couldn't hide it.
Both of them had experience of following Xue Mingxin up the mountain. When the four of them met on a narrow road in the mountain, it really felt like a Shura field.
Li Min looked at Xue Mingxin, who was helping Xu Manman carry her things, in disbelief. "Xue Zhiqing."
He gritted his teeth and looked at Xu Manman, "Xu...Zhi...Qing."
Chen Meizhi behind her was also staring at Xu Manman.
Xue Mingxin stepped forward and blocked Xu Manman behind him. "I've said everything I need to say very clearly. I hope Li Zhiqing won't bother me anymore." He then looked at Chen Meizhi. "And Chen Zhiqing, don't use any excuses to come to me. I have nothing to say to you either."
Xu Manman's eyes lit up. This man is so brave.
Li Min turned to look at Chen Meizhi. What made her more angry at the moment was the betrayal by the people around her rather than the lover she couldn't get.
"You! Chen Meizhi, what are you looking for Xue Zhiqing for?!"
Chen Meizhi was flustered for a moment when her story was exposed, but she quickly calmed down and thought of a solution. "I... I just want to apologize to Xue Zhiqing on your behalf, so that he won't misunderstand you."
Li Min slapped him, "Do you take me for a fool?"
Li Min was so angry that she couldn't hear what she said at all. Xu Manman was blocked by Xue Mingxin behind her and she couldn't reach her. Chen Meizhi in front of her became her best vent.
Chen Meizhi covered her face and asked, "You hit me?" The look in her eyes as she looked at Li Min was as if filled with poison.
"What's wrong with me hitting you? You are so shameless. You eat and use my things all day long, and you dare to do such shameless things behind my back."
Li Min scolded her arrogantly. She was used to Chen Meizhi's scolding without fighting back, so she naturally regarded her as a subordinate. If a follower was disobedient, it would be normal to beat and scold her to teach her a lesson.
Unexpectedly, Chen Meizhi slapped Li Min twice with her backhand, one on the left and one on the right. The slap marks on both sides of her face were very even, and the force was so strong that the corners of Li Min's mouth were bleeding.
