Chapter 18 Chapter 18
Jia Yourui suddenly felt a sharp pain in her calf and fell to the ground powerlessly.
Her trousers were lifted by the straw, and her jade-white calf was cut by the sharp straw leaves, which was shocking to watch.
A bright red color against the dazzling white skin touched the heartstrings of the viewer.
Jia Guoye quickly came to her.
Her eyes were red, and she acted coquettishly like before: "It hurts."
He half-knelt on the ground, lowered his head and pinched her calf to carefully check the wound.
He raised his head and asked worriedly: "Does it hurt a lot?"
Jia Yourui was not exaggerating. She was very afraid of pain and could already feel tears starting to appear in her eyes.
But seeing Jia Guoye's frown, she felt a little distressed, and pulled up the corners of her mouth to smile, wanting him to not be so nervous.
With tears in her eyes, she said firmly: "It seems to be okay, not very deep."
Jia Guoye raised his knees and squatted.
He said: "Your wound needs to be treated."
He looked at her with deep eyes.
With some hesitation, he asked: "I will carry you home, okay?"
Jia Yourui looked at him and nodded.
Her face was red, "Yes."
Jia Guoye rubbed his palms and rubbed them on his pants twice quickly.
He stretched out his hands and picked her up steadily.
...
Jia Yourui was in his arms, with her head down, hiding the joy and excitement in her heart, revealing only a beautiful profile.
Jia Guoye walked steadily and quickly, and soon he was far away.
...
Like everyone else, Jia Quanhui kept looking at the direction the two people left until their backs disappeared.
Envious voices rang out all around:
"Wow, those slender legs are so white."
"Jia Guoye must have finally gotten what he wanted after
suffering so much." "If I were to keep a beauty like this at home, I would be willing to work hard to support her."
"San'er, stop dreaming. Her father didn't even..." The person who spoke responded, "Ahem, he didn't even like her, so how could it be your turn?"
"Tell me, Jia Guoye's face is ruined and his legs are lame. How could he win the favor of Xiao Huabao's father? He was willing to force such a precious daughter to marry him?"
"Don't ask. This is the blessing earned in the previous life. It's useless to force it. It can't be obtained by envy."
...
Jia Quanhui lowered his eyelids and clenched the sickle in his hand. He felt
extremely bitter.
The image of Jia Yourui leaning obediently in Jia Guoye's arms lingered in his mind.
He found it extremely disgusting.
Everything that happened this afternoon made Jia Quanhui's heart feel like it was soaked in an icy old well.
Until today, he was sure that Jia Yourui had no feelings for her nominal husband. After
all, who would have feelings for a person like that, who was forced to marry him by her parents?
...
Jia Quanhui liked Jia Yourui and he wanted to marry her.
In fact, Jia Quanhui also knew that Jia Yourui might not have feelings for him, but was just willing to pay attention to him for a few words.
He also knew that Jia Yourui had a bad reputation in Xijia Village and was not honest after getting married, but he didn't care.
He even didn't quite believe the rumor that everyone knew.
Because Jia Yourui didn't seem like an emotional person. He couldn't imagine that the beautiful and distant Jia Yourui would seduce others to sleep with her. He always saw other men circling around her.
Sometimes she would respond to him, and sometimes she would ignore him.
And Jia Quanhui had a very clear premonition - Jia Yourui didn't seem to be moved.
No matter how close you are to her, even if what you say makes her happy, you can feel that there is a gap between her and you.
She was still smiling in the last second, and the corners of her mouth sank in the next second.
Jia Quanhui thought it was good. Even if Jia Yourui didn't like him, at least she wouldn't like others.
...
But after witnessing Jia Yourui going to the fields for that man and being softly held by that man, Jia Quanhui panicked.
The atmosphere between the two people is not deceptive.
Jia Yourui has changed.
...
Why?
Jia Quanhui's psychology is distorted and unbalanced. When Jia Kai asked the matchmaker to find a son-in-law, he ignored his family's strong opposition and went to the matchmaker to recommend himself.
Since he was a child, he secretly ran to the next village to see Jia Yourui.
The beautiful girl was so attractive and so unattainable that he felt embarrassed when he saw her.
Originally, he didn't dare to dream of having an intersection with such a stunning girl.
Even though he had excellent grades and was admitted to a technical secondary school, he was an outstanding young man praised by everyone, but he knew that there were so many people who liked the girl, and he was nothing.
Moreover, her father seemed to be interested in marrying her, and his parents would never allow it.
But who would have thought that one day he heard a horrifying rumor that was widely spread in the surrounding area.
He couldn't believe his ears:
a little girl from Xijia Village was dissolute and coquettish, and she had seduced a man to sleep at a young age! She was caught in bed by half of the village, and the man had a fiancée.
This news was like a bolt from the blue, and he was speechless.
