"What are you thinking about? Your face is so red."
Ye Zhiyu touched it and found it was quite hot.
As for what to think?
Can Ye Zhiyu tell him?
Absolutely not.
If I told her, would she still have the face to say anything?
He fanned himself with his right hand and said, "I wasn't thinking about anything, it's just a little hot."
She didn't want to talk about it, so Lu Chen didn't ask anymore and just handed her the eggs.
Ye Zhiyu subconsciously took it, but hesitated to put it in her mouth, after all, she had just been fantasizing.
So he stuffed it directly into Lu Chen's mouth.
Seeing his puzzled expression, Ye Zhiyu made up an excuse.
"I've already eaten, I'm not hungry, and I can't eat anymore."
Under a tree not far from the warehouse, Xu Fen concealed herself under the tree, staring at them with a gloomy gaze.
Fingers gripped tightly the dry, still-peeling bark.
She had already reached the field when she realized that her towel for wiping sweat was missing, so she went back to look for it; it was her only towel.
Unexpectedly, she witnessed this scene.
Why should Ye Zhiyu live in the sunlight while she's just a stinking bug in the gutter?
Why does she have family members who don't mind that she's a girl, and give her clothes, shoes, bags, and money at will?
But she had to shoulder the heavy responsibility of raising her younger brother.
Why is it that when she beckons with her finger, men flock to her?
But why do they avoid her like the plague?
She hated the injustice of fate, why she wasn't given a good family.
I hate her parents. Why did they call her a money-loser just because she's a girl?
She hates her brother. Why was he born? If he hadn't been born, her parents wouldn't have been so cruel to her, and everything in the house would have been hers.
She hated Ye Zhiyu even more, hating that Ye Zhiyu had everything that she didn't.
Xu Fen left, her face filled with hostility.
Ye Zhiyu glanced at the big tree unintentionally.
It would be strange if she didn't sense the immense malice.
At noon, Lu Chen went home to get his lunch.
Since he returned to work in the fields, he has been going home to get his lunch.
Anyway, he had almost finished his work, so this trip was just a rest stop, and it saved Tian Hongfang from having to make the trip.
He kept walking, but in his heart he was thinking that it had been a long time since he had barbecued meat for Ye Zhiyu.
It seems the cattle and sheep in the neighboring brigade have given birth. I wonder if Ye Zhiyu likes to drink goat milk or cow milk.
What is Zhiyu doing? Thinking of her.
As I was thinking this, someone suddenly blocked my way.
Upon closer inspection, it seems to be educated youth from a youth settlement?
I didn't recognize it, so I tried to walk around it.
Xu Fen gripped her clothes tightly to stop Lu Chen, but she couldn't open her mouth.
Seeing Lu Chen frown, his legs went weak; it was terrifying.
But then she thought of how Lu Chen ignored her so much, yet treated Ye Zhiyu with utmost gentleness.
In a moment of excitement, she spoke quickly just as Lu Chen was about to walk past her.
"I know you're with Ye Zhiyu."
Upon hearing Ye Zhiyu's name, Lu Chen stopped to listen to what she wanted to say.
Lu Chen remained calm, showing none of the panic and disarray that Xu Fen had imagined from being discovered.
"Aren't you afraid I'll tell others?"
Lu Chen was not afraid at all; he wanted to spend the rest of his life with Ye Zhiyu.
They didn't publicize their relationship; they just felt that dating was a matter between two people, and they would feel much more at ease without the attention of others.
After all, relationships between men and women are difficult to talk about these days. Once two people are dating, they will be constantly observed whenever others find out or they appear in the same place, which is really annoying.
But that doesn't mean they're ashamed. If people talk about it, they'll talk about it. They're dating seriously, not having an affair.
"What exactly are you trying to say?" Lu Chen asked impatiently.
Xu Fen thought about it and realized that Lu Chen was definitely the one who wanted everyone to know, so that Ye Zhiyu would be tied to him.
"Ye Zhiyu is promiscuous and has an affair with Fu Tingshen. Don't you care?"
Lu Chen's eyes instantly darkened. "Say that again?"
Xu Fen believed that Lu Chen was angry at Ye Zhiyu's true colors.
With a seemingly kind expression: "I'm telling you this only out of pity. You've been deceived. She's a vixen, not just Fu Tingshen, but also Li Yuzhe. She'll seduce any man in this village... Ah~~~"
Xu Fen fell to the ground. It was Lu Chen who swung the hoe at her.
She collapsed quickly, the hoe slamming into the ground and instantly creating a large crater, showing how much force Lu Chen had used.
“If I hear you say another bad word about her, this hoe won’t be so easy to dodge.”
He stared at Xu Fen like a wild beast.
His treasure cannot be slandered by anyone.
Xu Fen's lower body was inexplicably wet.
It felt like something was stuck in my throat, making it hard to breathe, and my whole body was trembling uncontrollably.
"Lu, Lu Chen, you've gone completely mad! What kind of spell has Ye Zhiyu cast on you...?"
Lu Chen grabbed her neck and slowly lifted her up. Xu Fen was terrified and kept hitting Lu Chen's hand.
"I know what kind of person she is, and it's not your place to slander her."
"If any bad rumors spread in the village, I'll blame it all on you. Even a corpse can be hidden in these mountains."
Xu Fen's pupils constricted, and she opened her mouth to breathe, but couldn't. Seeing that her lungs were about to run out of oxygen, Lu Chenmu let go of her hand and walked away.
Xu Fen, standing still, couldn't stop gagging, clutching her neck and gasping for breath, tears and snot streaming down her face.
She couldn't help but feel a lingering fear; it really was true, Lu Chen really wanted to kill her.
But this did not frighten Xu Fen; instead, it fueled her hatred.
Why is Ye Zhiyu so popular that someone is even willing to kill for her?
It's unfair, it's really unfair.
But she never imagined that although her family background was tragic, her household registration was no longer under her parents' control.
Thousands of kilometers away from her hometown, which she both knew and hated.
It's fair to say that if she doesn't go back on her own initiative, no one will come looking for her. Her parents will pretend they don't have a daughter, or they'll think she died in the countryside, and that she's just a money-losing burden.
She could have started a new life; nobody here knows her, nobody knows her past.
But she trapped herself in the past, trapped in that patriarchal family.
She hoped that her humility would earn her parents' attention.
The moment she saw Ye Zhiyu, it wasn't that she wanted to live like her, but rather that she wanted to achieve her so-called balance and fairness by destroying this person.
What is fairness? This world has never been fair.
All roads lead to Rome, but some people are born in Rome.
Nothing in this world is inherently meaningful; it is humans who give them meaning, which makes the world colorful and rich.
What is meaning? Meaning is living a happy life.
Some people use their childhood to heal their entire lives, while others use their entire lives to heal their childhood.
Everyone's experiences are different; what's past is past, so don't dwell on the pain.
The important thing is, once you have the ability to be independent, what kind of life do you choose to live?
