"Wen Zhiqing, just give in to me!"
"As long as you serve me well, I guarantee I'll get you a spot to return to the city from my uncle."
Lu Yuan lay in the tall reeds, his legs crossed and swinging back and forth, his hands behind his head, a blade of grass dangling from his mouth, contemplating his situation, when he heard a sleazy voice.
He was instantly stunned.
"Don't come any closer, or I'll call for help."
The crisp female voice revealed a hint of anxiety beneath the forced composure.
"Heh, go ahead and shout. Everyone's at work, nobody's going to listen to you here."
"That's indecent behavior, you'll get shot."
"No, we're dating, and it's just that we can't help ourselves. At most, we'll get a few criticisms."
"I'm not dating you, and I won't admit it."
"Whether you admit it or not doesn't matter. The brigade leader is my uncle. He and many other people can testify that we are dating."
"You are shameless."
“Wen Zhiqing, I like you so much. Don’t you want to go back to the city? As long as you come with me, I’ll get you a spot to go back to the city.”
"I don't want to go back to the city."
"That's perfect, you can marry me and I promise to treat you well for the rest of my life."
As the two were talking, Lu Yuan slowly approached and quietly parted the reeds.
A man with pointed ears and monkey-like cheeks was seen approaching a girl wearing a floral shirt and military green pants step by step.
Based on my memory, I know that the man was the brigade leader's nephew, named Sun Ziqiang.
The girl was a sent-down youth at the designated settlement; her name was Wen Moxue.
Wen Moxue looked warily at the man who was about to do something to her, then glanced at the deserted surroundings, a ruthless glint flashing in her eyes.
But then she thought of something and immediately rejected the idea, suppressing the thought that had just popped up.
No, things haven't gotten to that point yet.
It's not worth wasting your whole life on such a disgusting thing.
Thinking of this, he glanced at the river behind him and decided to change his strategy.
"Don't come any closer, or I'll jump off here."
Sun Ziqiang seemed to have figured out that she was just bluffing, and remained unmoved, continuing to approach her step by step.
He also let out a sly laugh, "Hehehe, Wen Zhiqing, why are you jumping around? Wouldn't it be better to have some fun with me?"
As he spoke, he lunged forward.
Holy shit!
That big scoundrel!
Lu Yuan rushed out immediately.
But it was too late; Wen Moxue had already jumped into the river the moment Sun Ziqiang lunged at her.
Lu Yuan kicked Sun Ziqiang in the buttocks in annoyance.
The man was already lunging forward, and with that kick, he lost his balance and fell into the river with a splash.
"Help--"
Sun Ziqiang can actually swim, but he was suddenly kicked into the river and was so frightened that he instinctively called for help.
On the contrary, Wen Moxue did not struggle after jumping into the river, but just quietly waited to sink, as if she wanted to live or die on her own.
Lu Yuan realized that she didn't seem to be able to swim, so he dove in.
Wen Moxue couldn't swim, and jumping into the river was a last resort, but she was also prepared to escape.
But someone else would save her.
At first, they thought it was Sun Ziqiang and struggled fiercely.
"Don't move if you don't want to die."
Upon closer inspection, it turned out not to be that scoundrel.
It immediately stopped struggling.
She didn't want to die. Given the chance to live, why would she want to die?
He hugged the person who saved him tightly.
"Hey, let go, if you tighten it any more we'll both be done for."
Wen Moxue realized this and immediately let go of her hand.
Lu Yuan supported her with one hand and used the other hand to float on the water, swimming towards the shore.
Seeing Sun Ziqiang struggling ahead, I swam a couple of strokes quickly and caught up.
Grab one of his feet and pull him down hard.
"Plop..."
Sun Ziqiang was caught off guard and pulled into the water, swallowing two mouthfuls of water.
As soon as his head popped out, Lu Yuan pressed it back down.
"Gulp gurgle..."
Wen Moxue felt very relieved after watching it.
When the head popped up again, she pressed it down without Lu Yuan even needing to do it.
Anyway, she doesn't need to float or hold onto anyone, so her hands are free.
Seeing her like this, Lu Yuan curled his lips and continued swimming towards the shore.
However, while wandering around, my foot intentionally or unintentionally kicked at the head that was about to pop up again.
He wasn't the only one with this idea; the feet of the person he was holding back weren't staying still either.
"Help, gurgling sound—"
They both noticed each other's subtle movements, exchanged a glance, and then silently looked away.
I had barely gotten ashore and hadn't even had time to let go when I saw a huge group of people running towards us.
Leading the group were the brigade leader, the educated youth leader, and a female educated youth.
Seeing the two of them, soaking wet and embracing each other, climbing out of the river, the female educated youth started shouting from afar.
"Mo Xue, what's going on between you and Sun Ziqiang?"
This is trying to force two people together before even seeing them clearly or understanding the situation.
Lu Yuan looked at the person in his arms with pity; clearly, someone was deliberately messing with her.
Summer clothes are already thin, and when soaked in water, the floral shirt not only clings to the body but also becomes quite transparent.
Wen Moxue's impressive assets and exquisite figure were on full display.
Lu Yuan awkwardly looked away.
As the group of people approached, Wen Moxue was at a loss and could only move closer to Lu Yuan, trying to use his large body to shield herself.
Seeing her embarrassment, Lu Yuan quickly took off his dusty coat and threw it to her.
"Just make do with this."
He was wearing two vests underneath, and he's a grown man, so it's not a big deal if he's shirtless.
