Zheng Wenjing's eyes dimmed, but she still managed a smile. "Okay, okay, this is indeed a problem. Brother Qin, I understand your thoughts. It's okay. At least I spoke my mind and I won't have any regrets."
To this, Qin Zheng replied, "Go back, it's very cold here."
He acted very distant, leaving her no room for fantasy.
Zheng Wenjing's heart was broken.
She knew that Qin Zheng was right to be so cold to her. If you reject someone, you should have a rejecting attitude. The worst thing to do in a relationship is to play hard to get.
But knowing it in your heart is one thing, but when it happens to you, you can't help but feel sad and upset.
Zheng Wenjing nodded with tears welling up in her eyes, and forced a smile on her lips. She was clearly smiling, but it looked uglier than crying.
"Okay... okay, Brother Qin, it's really a bit cold here. I'm shivering a little bit."

Qin Zheng and Zheng Wenjing came back one after another.
Qin Zheng behaved as usual, but Zheng Wenjing's nose and eyes were red, and it was obvious that she had just cried.
Feng Juan looked at the two of them suspiciously for a few seconds, then pulled Qin Zheng aside and asked him in a low voice, "What's wrong? Did you bully them?"
"No."
"You didn't bully me, why is I crying for no reason?"
"Don't ask anymore." Qin Zheng changed the subject. "Have you packed your luggage? If you have, it's time for us to leave."
Seeing that Qin Zheng didn't want to talk, Feng Juan didn't ask any more questions and continued the conversation, saying, "It's almost time. Just wrap up the quilt and you can go."
"Okay, then hurry up." Qin Zheng said, "I'll drive the car over here."
"good."
Feng Juan took a look at Zheng Wenjing's dejected look and shook her head helplessly. She turned back into the house and packed her luggage with Aunt Feng.
Zheng Wenjing stood aside silently, feeling disappointed.
At this moment, Yun Qiao came over, gently held Zheng Wenjing's hand, and asked, "Wenjing, are you okay?"
Zheng Wenjing shook her head. "I'm fine. I'd already foreseen the outcome, and hearing it with my own ears has put an end to my hopes."
"That's good." Yun Qiao patted Zheng Wenjing's shoulder and comforted her, "Don't be too sad. Think positively. You will definitely meet a more suitable person in the future."
Zheng Wenjing nodded slightly and said, "Thank you for your good wishes."
As soon as Zheng Wenjing finished speaking, she saw Qin Zheng drive the jeep to the door. After he and He Tingjun got out of the car, they helped Feng Juan and Yun Qiao move their luggage into the car.
After all the luggage was loaded into the trunk, Qin Zheng closed the trunk door and turned to remind Yun Qiao: "Yun Qiao, get in the car, we should leave."
"Okay." Yun Qiao responded and turned to Zheng Wenjing and said, "Wenjing, we're leaving. See you later."
"Well, let's go. See you later." In front of Qin Zheng, Zheng Wenjing tried to keep her voice calm. She first waved to Yun Qiao, then smiled at Qin Zheng: "Brother Qin, goodbye."
Qin Zheng glanced at her and said softly, "Goodbye." Then he turned around and got into the car.
The car started slowly and left the rented courtyard.
Zheng Wenjing looked at the jeep going away and couldn't help but shed tears.
When I returned to the educated youth compound, the yard was quiet.
Because the end of the year was approaching, most of the educated youth had taken their home leave to return to the city to reunite with their families. The only people left in the educated youth compound were the new educated youth who had just arrived and a few old educated youth who had not returned home for the end of the year.
Zheng Wenjing had wanted to leave, but before leaving she received a telegram from home saying that her father had gone south to Guangzhou for research and was taking his brother with him to see the world, and would not be able to return to Beijing until later.
Zheng Wenjing's home leave was only one month long. If she went home now, she wouldn't see anyone, so she simply didn't go. She thought she would wait until around tomorrow to ask for leave to return to Beijing. By then, the weather would be warmer and the journey would be more comfortable.
Walking through the deserted courtyard, Zheng Wenjing pushed the door and walked into the dormitory.
The dormitory was cozy and the kang was well heated. In the inner room, the female educated youth seemed to be playing dominoes. Even through the wall, Zheng Wenjing could hear their lively laughter.
Zheng Wenjing was rejected after confessing her love, and she was in a bad mood. She didn't want to join in the fun, and was also afraid that her mood would affect other people's cheerful atmosphere. She was about to go into the house to get her thermos and sit quietly in the outer room for a while.
Unexpectedly, she had just lifted the curtain to the inner room and had not yet entered the house when she felt a pair of unfriendly eyes falling on her.
The laughter suddenly stopped and the atmosphere suddenly became tense.
