Lu Xianjin couldn't fake his pale face, so he must be really sick, but it's not certain whether he was sick enough to be pulled back on a cart.
The main thing is that I don’t know if it’s because of my prejudice, but Yi Qingqing feels like something is not right no matter how she looks at it.
He was dressed neatly, his hair was not messy, and his cough was just a dry cough.
To put it simply, the illness is a little too delicate and a little deliberate.
According to the previous timeline, Lu Xianjin should have gone to Gao Xiaoxiang in the rain to explain, but Gao Xiaoxiang did not see him. He was caught in the rain for quite a while, and then fell ill when he came back, so sick that he did not have the strength to get out of bed.
That's why he didn't show up for work this morning, and the team leader and others had to go to the educated youth site to look for him. He couldn't even get up and open the door because the door panel had been removed.
When the captain and his men went in, Lu Xianjin should have been lying on the bed, so how could his clothes be so neatly worn?
Recalling that when Yun Guyuan came to open the door yesterday, he was only wearing a thin vest. He usually buttoned his shirts meticulously to the top button.
Yi Qingqing just didn't believe it. When the team leader and the village chief came in and found Lu Xianjin lying on the bed in a daze, they hurriedly sent him to see a doctor. They even had the mood to put clothes on him and said, "Comrade, just wrap him in a quilt."
So the reason why he was dressed so neatly was probably because he had tidied up his personal appearance before the captain and the others went there. If he was really a sick and sloppy man, he would not have aroused the sympathy of the girls.
If you have the energy to think about all these twists and turns, how come you don’t have the energy to open the door?
Now it seems that his performance was quite successful, and Gao Xiaoxiang looks quite anxious at the moment.
"You stupid girl, come here!" The village chief's wife Xu Dongmei was so angry when she saw her daughter running to the swindler like a wild horse.
All the reputation and dignity that she had worked so hard to maintain were ruined by her doing this.
Xu Dongmei walked over angrily, twisted her daughter's ear with her hand, and lifted her up.
"Ouch!" Gao Xiaoxiang screamed in pain and shrank in front of Xu Dongmei.
No matter how much I feel sorry for her, I dare not show it.
"Xiaoxiang—cough cough," Lu Xianjin didn't even finish his worried words before he was killed by the jolt.
It turned out that Gao Beizhu cleverly took over the cart pulled by the team leader, and relying on his brute strength, he pulled the cart and charged forward.
The road is not smooth now, with many potholes. You can tell how it feels by looking at the real coughing sound of Lu Xianjin.
I guess he was choked by the bumpy ride.
Seeing the cart running away in a short while, and the sound of someone coughing up his lungs, Li Mengxue sighed and whispered to Yi Qingqing, "We don't have to worry about it now. Gao Xiaoxiang has several brothers!"
Yi Qingqing nodded.
It seems that although Gao Xiaoxiang is a little soft-hearted, she has a group of clear-eyed family members looking after her, so it is probably impossible for Lu Xianjin to make things right.
Gao Xiaoxiang is not just soft-hearted towards Lu Xianjin. She probably doesn't have the courage to go against her family for Lu Xianjin.
I'm afraid Lu Xianjin's idea of using illness as a raft is of no use.
After that day, Yi Qingqing no longer cared about Lu Xianjin's affairs. She just waited to see if he would be harassed at work after he recovered from his illness.
As a result, his sick leave was unexpectedly long and he didn't go to work for three consecutive days.
Lu Xianjin's family situation shouldn't be that good, otherwise he wouldn't have gone to so much trouble to find a girl with good conditions to add bargaining chips to himself. He can't afford to miss three consecutive days of work.
Later, Qian Lailai heard some gossip from somewhere that Lu Xianjin's condition had relapsed and he had gone to the clinic several times. Someone asked the doctor and he said that because the first time he got sick and had a fever he had delayed treatment for too long, his body was seriously damaged and had a root of the disease, so he was very weak.
This is something that did not happen in the original book.
No wonder I haven’t seen him looking for Gao Xiaoxiang and Wang Lingling in the past few days. I’m afraid his physical condition is a little beyond his expectations.
If this is true, we can only say that he reaped the fruits of his own actions. If he had not delayed seeing a doctor for so long when he first fell ill, this result would not have occurred.
This fever, even if it is a low-grade fever, cannot be delayed.
After hearing about this, Yi Qingqing specifically went to warn Yun Guyuan, "Don't endure it alone if you get sick in the future. See a doctor and take medicine in time, and take care of your health!"
"Okay, if I get sick next time, I will tell you immediately," Yun Guyuan said seriously.
He has to endure it all by himself because no one can help him. This is how he has always been.
But he is a greedy person. After experiencing warmth, he can't adapt to loneliness. It feels really good to be taken care of by her.
Yi Qingqing was about to nod and praise him, but suddenly she realized something was wrong: "I'm not a doctor, why are you telling me?"
"I think you are more useful than a doctor," Yun Guyuan said seriously.
Yi Qingqing: "..."
This is a love story, right?
With her red cheeks, she put her hands on her waist and said to him seriously: "Comrade Yun, please restrain yourself. I haven't agreed yet..."
"Qingqing, didn't we agree to call me Ayuan?" Yun Guyuan interrupted Yi Qingqing for the first time.
Yi Qingqing: "..."
Suddenly I regretted my impulsiveness that day.
It was all because someone’s hands were unbuttoning my clothes too quickly and I was so close to him that I was overwhelmed by his scent.
But she is not someone who doesn't keep her word.
"Okay, Ayuan... Comrade, please restrain yourself. Although I like you, I haven't agreed to be with you yet! What I said before still counts!"
This was half a joke, half serious.
"I know, Qingqing, don't worry, I will try my best not to interfere with your life, but please don't reject my love, okay?" Yun Guyuan looked straight into her eyes and said seriously with a hint of pleading in his tone.
This time, Yi Qingqing was stunned, and her aura was mostly gone. "How do you know I don't want you to interfere with my life?"
Yun Guyuan's words were so accurate. Although he didn't completely guess her thoughts, it was at least one of the reasons. However, she was not afraid that he would interfere with her, but she was afraid that she would not be able to resist.
She knew too well how much Yun Guyuan attracted her. After that rainy day, she was increasingly inclined towards falling in love.
Her love for Yun Guyuan might be more than what she said.
But she still had her sanity and knew that continuing like this would go against her plan.
She likes it, but her previous thoughts still count.
She was only 17, and Yun Guyuan was only 18. This was just a place where they would stay for a short time in their lives. Neither she nor Yun Guyuan would probably stay here in the future.
Just like the premature love among high school students in the previous life, few can go from school uniforms to wedding dresses. Even if there are, the two people must have made a lot of compromises for each other and had many difficult times.
There are too many variables in the future. If Yi Qingqing is someone like Li Mengxue who enjoys the process of love and doesn't care about the results, she will definitely not care about these things.
Section 71
But she didn't want to waste her emotions and energy on a love that had no results, so she had to be rational.
Moreover, with the existence of the sign-in system, skill learning requires a lot of energy. The current situation is too closed, and the source of her skills is difficult to explain. The best thing to do is to keep some distance from others and not let people know too much about her, especially in terms of her abilities.
Besides, if her mother knew that she found a partner in the first year after going to the countryside, she would probably be furious.
So after the impulse, Yi Qingqing came back to her senses in the past few days and reason prevailed.
Was her expression so obvious? Did Yun Guyuan notice it?
Yun Guyuan looked at her and said, "The girl I like is very capable. Not only does she love life and live her life to the fullest, she also has great ideals. She has never stopped studying and has never put down her books. She must have her own plans and clear goals. I am like a cold wind that suddenly broke into her world. I am greedy for her beauty and warmth, but I don't want to affect her. I hope she can move forward without any scruples and always be herself. I just want me to be the first person she sees when she looks back."
His words were very warm, but Yi Qingqing found that he always seemed to put himself in a humble position, which made people feel distressed.
Feelings should be equal. Although his love would make her feel more relaxed because he was always tolerant, she couldn't bear to see him like this.
Love yourself first and then love others. This is how she feels and she hopes Yun Guyuan will be like this too. He is a good person and shouldn't be so humble in his emotions.
So Yi Qingqing moved a small stool and sat in front of him, looking at him seriously and said: "Ayuan, you are the first breeze of early spring. You appear cold but are actually warm. I am not afraid of being cold to you. I am afraid that you are too warm and will make me lose my determination to move forward. You must remember that I like you because you are good and you are worth it."
Yun Guyuan was stunned by her words. Is it the breeze? Is it warmth? Is this him?
Worth it? She said I was worth it!
Yun Guyuan felt that he was illuminated by her from the inside out, from body to soul.
How can she be so nice, like a warm little sun.
Now that things had come to this, Yi Qingqing decided to have a good talk with him about her inner thoughts and just get it all out.
"Ayuan, I am very serious about relationships. Once we start, I will do my best to achieve a result. I will build a career first and then start a family. Only when we are mature enough, have certain abilities, and have a stable life, will we be able to take risks and be responsible for the relationship and the commitments we have made.
So I hope our relationship can start when we are both more mature, because I want there to be a result.
We are still young and incapable, and we still have a lot to learn. This is not the time to indulge in love. I will work hard, and you should work hard too, not for each other, but just for a better future for yourself. Before loving others, you must love yourself well. This is not our end point. "
After Yi Qingqing finished speaking, she looked at Yun Guyuan's reaction, and saw his pair of bright eyes staring at him without blinking.
"Hey! Are you listening?"
Yun Guyuan nodded, "Qingqing, I know, I just didn't expect you to think so far ahead. I always felt that my luck would not be so good to have a result with you, so I never expected to be with you, but I was always unwilling to give up."
Yi Qingqing understood what he meant, but she didn't want to indulge him and let him continue to belittle her like this, so she said unhappily, "What's the matter? If you don't want a result, then what are you talking about? Don't you want to be responsible?"
"Responsible, of course I'm responsible!" Yun Guyuan said hurriedly, as if afraid that she would go back on her word.
Yi Qingqing snorted, "I won't talk to you anymore, I have to go study!"
After saying this, he got up, carried his small stool and went back to his room.
He said he felt that his luck would not be so good, and so did Yi Qingqing. Her luck in her previous life was terrible, and it was her luck to meet him.
It was actually her, not Yun Guyuan, who was pessimistic and cold-hearted.
But because he likes her and loves her, he only sees the good side of her. Why does she deserve that?
After the conversation that day, Yi Qingqing felt much more at ease and calm. Although she was not with Yun Guyuan, she had a sense of certainty in her heart. This was all the confidence and sense of security that Yun Guyuan brought her.
This feeling actually brought her a sense of inner peace and made her more motivated to study.
On the last night before the holiday this month, she exited the skill teaching mode, and the sign-in system popped up three unread message prompts.
[Learning through the skill teaching mode, the cooking skill is upgraded to level 3, and 10 sign-in points are awarded. ]

She opened the system panel to check the latest situation.
