Yu Jiu hated her incontinence with tears. Whenever she felt wronged, tears would stream down her face, and she couldn't even utter a word. She bit her lip and finally shouted it out loud.
My back hurts.
Xu Zi quickly lifted her clothes to take a look. There were two bluish-purple handprints on her fair and slender waist. It was clear that he had pinched her when he lost control while kissing her. He had used some force, but it shouldn't have been this exaggerated! He must have used eighteen percent of his strength to leave such obvious marks!
Xu Zijiang finally realized where he went wrong. His rough and handsome face was full of regret, and he kept apologizing.
"I'm sorry, I was wrong. I shouldn't have pinched your waist so hard. It's my fault, I'll go get some medicine for you right now."
He hurriedly ran into the room and grabbed a bottle of ointment. The cool ointment relieved the pain, and Yu Jiu's tears, which had been flowing like a flood, finally stopped. She snatched the towel from Xu Zi's hand and haphazardly wiped her face.
At this moment, she felt both embarrassed and ashamed, and she didn't know what to say. She wanted to just smash her head against the wall and die, so she wouldn't have to talk to Xu Zijiang anymore!
Xu Zijiang noticed her embarrassment and indignation, so he cleared his throat and changed the subject.
"Are you thirsty? I'll pour you a bowl of water."
Yu Jiu nodded silently, not saying a word, her head hanging low, her red and swollen eyes fixed on the ground, not daring to look at him.
Xu Zijiang wanted to laugh, but he was afraid of upsetting someone who was easily embarrassed and would start crying again. In that case, even jumping into the river wouldn't be enough to comfort him. He wiped his mouth, concealed his smile, and quickly brought over a bowl of water.
"I put some sugar in it for you. See if it's sweet enough. If it's not sweet enough, I'll put some more in."
He didn't dare add too much, afraid it would be too cloying.
"Um."
Yu Jiu managed to squeeze out a sentence, picked up the bowl, and silently drank the sugar water in one gulp. To be honest, after crying for so long, she was incredibly thirsty and wanted another bowl. She tapped her toes on the ground, remaining silent and awkwardly standing there.
Xu Zijiang was both amused and exasperated; there was no need for such an awkward situation.
"Give me the bowl, and I'll go make you some sugar water."
Yu Jiu silently stretched out the bowl, like a combination of an ostrich and a tortoise, playing dead and moving slowly.
Xu Zijiang went and made another bowl of sweet soup. After Yu Jiu finished drinking it, he didn't intend to embarrass her any further. He moved a stool next to Yu Jiu, and Yu Jiu's shoulders trembled, whether from fear or embarrassment, it was hard to tell.
Xu Zi sat down with an air of authority, forcefully reaching out to lift her chin, raising her face, and asked seriously.
"Yu Zhiqing, what is our relationship now? Can you be my wife?"
Yu Jiu closed her eyes and pretended to be dead, refusing to speak. She thought to herself, "Who wants to be your wife? He's so fierce!" Rainbow Sister was right; their sizes were mismatched. Look how strong he is! Just one kiss and he's done this to her! And, his thing is so big…
Yu Jiu felt like she was going to die! She regretted it; she shouldn't have impulsively kissed him today and given him a chance.
She shook her head vigorously.
"What do you mean? You don't want it? So you've finished flirting with me today and don't want to take responsibility?"
Xu Zijiang raised an eyebrow and asked in a roguish tone.
"Who's messing with whom here?! You've even ruined my back like this!"
Yu Jiu suddenly opened her eyes, complaining with dissatisfaction. She pouted, feeling utterly wronged. She had been bullied to this extent, yet she was still being blamed.
"This was indeed my mistake. It was my first time touching a young girl, and I got a little too excited. I didn't expect your skin to be so delicate; it turned blue and purple after just one pinch. I promise I won't use that much force again, okay? I won't hurt you."
"Yu Zhiqing, you can't kiss me and then abandon me. I'm no longer pure; you have to take responsibility."
As they talked, Xu Zijiang started acting like a rogue, resting his head on Yu Jiu's shoulder and rubbing against him, just like a large wolfhound acting spoiled and clingy with its owner.
But Yu Jiulang's heart is as hard as iron; once he said no, he meant no. Humph.
"I'm going back!"
She forcefully pushed Xu Zijiang away, showing her determination to return the goods. Yes, she was determined to be a scumbag!
"Sigh, Yu Zhiqing is so heartless. Let me take you back first. It's getting dark, and I'm worried about you walking alone."
Xu Zi sighed in a roguish manner, deciding not to push the person too far and to send them home first. After all this commotion, it was completely dark, and he couldn't guarantee the young educated youth's safety if he stayed any longer.
The two walked in silence, and Yu Jiu walked very fast, taking almost half the usual time to walk from Xu Zijiang's house to the educated youth settlement.
Just as she was about to go in, Xu Zijiang opened his mouth, about to say something, but Yu Jiu had already dashed into the educated youth settlement like a gust of wind, leaving behind only two cold words.
"goodbye!"
Xu Zi shook his head helplessly, a slight smirk playing on his lips. This little educated youth is such a rascal, he didn't even glance back at him. Fine.
He went home too, and turned to walk into the darkness.
Only after he had truly left did Yu Jiu cautiously peek out from the female educated youth's room. Thankfully, he was really gone. Yu Jiu confirmed it, breathed a sigh of relief, and finally felt at ease. Turning her head, she came face-to-face with a large, magnified face.
"ah!"
Yu Jiu was startled and screamed, clutching her chest, which drew dissatisfaction from the others.
"What are you doing? It's so noisy. I'm getting ready for bed."
It was already past seven or eight o'clock, and the female educated youths had all gone to bed to sleep. Yu Jiu's loud shout almost woke them up. Knowing she was in the wrong, Yu Jiu stuck out her tongue.
I'm sorry.
"Rainbow Sister, what are you doing? You scared me to death!"
After apologizing, Yu Jiu pulled Yu Caihong out of the yard, muttering complaints under her breath. Heaven knows what she felt when she turned around and met a face with only hair!
"Oops, I forgot I've already let my hair down."
Yu Caihong was also getting ready to sleep. Her hair had come down and was lying on her chest, looking rather dark and scary.
"Wait, don't change the subject! What are you doing sneaking around like that? Why are you so late coming back from the captain's house today? What are you acting guilty about? What did you two do?"
Yu Caihong questioned her daughter about coming home late just like an elderly mother would, her questions rapid and serious.
"No, I didn't do anything. Why would I feel guilty? I'm not guilty. I'm going to take a shower."
Yu Jiu touched the tip of his nose and stubbornly insisted.
"Hey, Captain, why are you back again?"
Yu Caihong suddenly waved behind Yu Jiu, and Yu Jiu immediately stomped her foot angrily and said unhappily.
"Xu Zijiang!"
"Hey, you're calling the captain by his full name now. Are you angry with him? What did he do to you? Did he bully you? Tell me about it. I won't tell anyone. We're like family."
Yu Caihong put her arm around Yu Jiu's shoulder like a best friend. As she got closer, she noticed that Yu Jiu's lips seemed a little swollen. Had she eaten too much chili? No, why would she eat chili in the middle of summer? Wait a minute!
