Shifting her focus from the unapproachable He Chaoyang to Gao Hongyuan, whom she could see every day and had a better chance of winning over, Yang Wanqiu's first priority was to win over Gu Xinyi.
After all, Gao Hongyuan's heart and eyes were still completely occupied by Gu Xinyi at this moment.
Although it's hard to understand why Gao Hongyuan didn't fall for Chen Shuning in this life, but instead had a crush on Gu Xinyi, considering that Gao Hongyuan ended up marrying Chen Shuning in the previous life.
Yang Wanqiu didn't know exactly how the two got together, or whether Gu Xinyi had ever been involved in the relationship.
However, none of this affected Yang Wanqiu's determination to become Mrs. Gao.
Yang Wanqiu, however, was full of confidence in Gao Hongyuan. After all, Gao Hongyuan was not as unapproachable as He Chaoyang, and Gao Hongyuan was, in the end, just an eighteen or nineteen-year-old boy.
In her previous life, she had been with many men after leaving the Gao family, so she was quite confident in winning over Gao Hongyuan and Yang Wanqiu.
If she could win him over, although she wouldn't be able to return to the city and live a good life immediately like she did with He Chaoyang, she would still be a wealthy and powerful wife in the future.
Most importantly, according to her observation, Gu Xinyi is arrogant, reckless, and lacks common sense. She could easily deceive her with just a little trickery.
It's like she had been intentionally or unintentionally distancing herself from me for some reason a while ago, but all she did was shed a few tears and act pitiful in front of Gu Xinyi, and this stupid woman treated me like a close friend again, bringing me food and drinks.
For example, right now, I just said a few provocative words, and this stupid woman is already acting like she's about to break up with Gao Hongyuan.
You have to understand that even if a man likes you a lot, if you keep breaking up with him and don't cherish or care about your relationship, no man can stand it if it happens repeatedly over time.
Even if Gao Hongyuan likes Gu Xinyi now, given the way she's acting, it's only a matter of time before he leaves her.
And that's exactly what Yang Wanqiu wanted to see.
Yang Wanqiu also knew that Gao Hongyuan only had Gu Xinyi in his heart, so she wouldn't be as foolish as Tian Mi to directly ruin their relationship.
Doing that will only earn you Gao Hongyuan's resentment. Whenever he sees you, he will be reminded of that relationship he once cherished, the relationship he lost because of you. In that case, how could he possibly choose to be with you?
All she needs to do is subtly push things together from behind, and then take action after the two separate. By appearing when the man is most vulnerable after his breakup, comforting him, and helping him heal from the hurt of his previous relationship, he will remember her and gradually fall in love with her.
Anyway, there are still several years before the large-scale return of educated youth to the city, so she's not in a hurry.
Moreover, Yang Wanqiu still couldn't let go of He Chaoyang to some extent. If she had the chance to win over He Chaoyang, that would be the best outcome. If she couldn't win over He Chaoyang, then settling for Gao Hongyuan would also be a good alternative.
It has to be said that Yang Wanqiu is a very pragmatic woman; her feelings are entirely measured by self-interest.
Chen Shuning didn't care about Yang Wanqiu's thoughts at all. No matter who Yang Wanqiu schemed against or harmed, it was none of her business. As long as she didn't provoke her, that was fine.
Because her hut was right next to Zhong Lingling's, Chen Shuning ran straight back without even opening an umbrella, and went inside as quickly as possible.
Seeing that the firewood in the stove had almost burned out, he hurriedly stuffed the firewood that he had brought into the house earlier into the stove pit.
He Chaoyang prepared mostly large pieces of firewood for Chen Shuning, which were not easy to burn, so filling the stove pit before going to bed would basically ensure that the bed would be warm all night.
So much so that after the temperature dropped these past few days, Chen Shuning would unconsciously think of He Chaoyang whenever she heated the kang (a traditional heated bed), wondering if she had finished eating the food she brought for him.
Thinking that after the autumn harvest, when I go to town again, I will write him a letter to say hello. After all, if there were no one there, I would probably have to hide in my space to sleep every day.
This province of Heilongjiang is really too cold. It's only mid-October and the temperature at night has already dropped below zero. I really don't know how cold it will be in winter.
While adding firewood to the stove pit, lost in thought, Chen Shuning unknowingly filled the pit completely. By the time she realized it, it was too late to pull it out.
However, thinking that it would save me from having to light a fire again when I got up to cook tomorrow morning, I didn't pull the firewood out anymore.
After washing his hands with a basin of warm water, he filled the pot with water to prevent it from drying out, then took off his clothes and buried himself in the still-warm quilt to fall asleep.
She was so tired that she slept until late morning the next day.
The alarm clock did ring once during the day, but I didn't hear the gong signaling the start of work after the alarm rang.
Thinking that she wouldn't have to work today, Chen Shuning went back to sleep without worry.
Who knew she would sleep until past ten o'clock? Because she had accidentally added too much firewood last night, the bed was still warm and cozy, making Chen Shuning, who already had some difficulty getting out of bed, even more reluctant to get up.
Hearing that there was no one talking outside as usual, Chen Shuning thought that maybe everyone hadn't slept well last night and had gotten up late like her. She didn't rush to get dressed, wrapped the quilt around herself, moved to the edge of the bed, and lifted a corner of the curtain to look outside.
Chen Shuning thought the rain had stopped because she couldn't hear it, but when she opened the curtains, all she saw was a vast expanse of white. She didn't know when the heavy rain outside had turned into snow.
