After washing up, Ke Meiyu has become a completely different person ever since she started equating peace value with RMB, the system with the mall, and the villain with her benefactors. She keeps spending money and can't control herself at all!
At this moment, she glared at the face cream with a bitter expression, gritted her teeth, and still impulsively bought a set of high-quality aloe vera skincare products. She applied them layer by layer, and her whole body felt moisturized.
She braided two pigtails and pulled them out into little lantern shapes, looking playful, cute, and beautiful!
After eating the fragrant and soft fried dough, the two hurried towards the village entrance.
Having maxed out her peace points for the day, Ke Meiyu coldly declared that she would no longer serve or fawn over the mobile money-grabbing machine.
She gripped the back seat with both hands, not even touching Qin Yuanjiu with the hem of her clothes, and hummed a little tune to herself.
As soon as they reached the main road of the village, they came face to face with Ke Yunyue and Huang Fangbin, who were also riding bicycles.
The two were also dressed in new clothes. Huang Fangbin wore a dark gray Zhongshan suit, black round-framed glasses, and his hair was shiny and greasy, sticking to his scalp. When the wind blew it out, it looked like he hadn't washed his hair for a month.
Ke Yunyue was wearing a yellow plaid coat over a blue sweater, and a bright red scarf around her neck.
She was at best pretty, with yellowish skin and cheeks flushed red from the autumn wind—truly a country bumpkin!
"Comrade Qin, are you going to town?"
Although Qin Yuanjiu's fall into the water was largely due to Huang Fangbin and Li Shuisheng, Qin Yuanjiu was in poor condition at the time and did not pursue the matter. The two sides did not publicly break off relations, and now they can be considered brothers-in-law.
Huang Fangbin felt a sense of triumph, having submitted his application to the Provincial Workers' and Peasants' University. He felt a sense of accomplishment, as if he had completely outshone Qin Yuanjiu, the young master from Beijing. It was truly exhilarating.
Huang Fangbin greeted her with a smile, his greedy eyes sweeping over the beautiful face swaying behind Qin Yuanjiu, his mind churning with new ideas.
Qin Yuanjiu's expression was cold and aloof. With a slight exertion of his long legs, the car sped off into the distance.
There were cars ahead, but he showed no intention of stopping.
"Hey, hey, hey, we've bumped into each other!" Huang Fangbin's smile froze, and he quickly shouted in a shrill voice.
He stared wide-eyed as Qin Yuanjiu's car crashed straight into him.
When faced with this situation, Ke Ren's mind goes blank, and he doesn't know how to avoid danger. Moreover, he is not tall, and when riding a bicycle with a crossbar, he has to sway slightly from side to side.
At that moment, he instinctively and frantically put both feet on the ground, causing a certain part of his body to get heavily stuck on the beam.
Huang Fangbin was in so much pain that his face turned pale, and he bent over, grabbing the car and falling to the ground.
Ke Yunyue, whose view was blocked in the back seat, also fell flat on her face!
Ke Meiyu tightly hugged Qin Yuanjiu's waist with one hand and rubbed her sore nose with the other. She peeked out and saw the two of them in a miserable state, and laughed out loud in a very unkind way, "Brother Jiu, really, what was wrong with your head when you were riding a bike?"
"But Comrade Huang, you're a human being, not a dog. Why don't you know to hide? The main roads in the village aren't narrow!"
"Ke Meiyu, Qin Yuanjiu, did you do this on purpose?!"
Ke Yunyue's face was covered in yellow mud, and her body was also covered in dirt.
She stepped forward, pointing her finger in exasperation.
However, Qin Yuanjiu pushed off with his long legs, swerved the car, brushed past her, and sped away again.
Ke Meiyu made all sorts of funny faces at her, gloating.
"Ugh, I'm so angry!" Ke Yunyue stomped her feet, urging Huang Fangbin to get up and catch up quickly.
It took Huang Fangbin a while to recover from the pain. He gritted his teeth and forced a smile, thinking that the documents had only been submitted and had not yet been officially approved, so he still had to coax this young lady.
He shakily mounted the bike, pedaling his short legs with all his might amidst the exhilarating friction.
"Ah Yue, I think Qin Yuanjiu and Ke Meiyu are both jealous of us," Huang Fangbin said, panting. He changed the subject to quell the young lady's anger.
Ke Yunyue was taken aback, then raised her chin and smiled: "That's right. No matter how good Ke Meiyu is, she can't wear clothes or eat food. She'll get wrinkles and become ugly when she gets old."
"No matter how powerful her grandfather is, he's old now. How many people are willing to listen to what he says? But my uncle is a company commander now, and he's in charge of a lot of people!"
"Fang Bin, you must study hard when you get to school. After graduation, you'll get a great job that will make them all envious!"
Huang Fangbin nodded. "Of course. I heard the job is good, and the company even provides subsidized housing for outstanding graduates. I'll let you live in an apartment building in the future."
Ke Yunyue smiled with satisfaction. Although Huang Fangbin was not as good as Qin Yuanjiu in many aspects, he had no blemishes on his record, which alone was enough to leave Qin Yuanjiu far behind.
"Okay, I'm waiting. Before we go to the provincial capital to visit your parents, let's buy some more gifts. I brought a lot of money and some rare milk powder coupons that my uncle mailed over!"
Seeing that Ke Yunyue and Huang Fangbin had suffered a loss, Ke Meiyu felt much better. She still had one hand around Qin Yuanjiu's waist, which was more comfortable than holding onto the back seat.
"Haha, I didn't expect Comrade Qin to be so wicked, but I like it!"
Hearing her bold and straightforward words, Qin Yuanjiu couldn't help but shake the handlebars slightly. He lowered his brows slightly and said calmly, "I did have a moment of lapse in concentration."
Ke Meiyu looked completely bewildered.
"I'm wondering if mermaids really exist in this world..."
Before he could finish speaking, someone grabbed his waist and twisted it hard.
Qin Yuanjiu hissed in pain, "It hurts!"
"So you feel pain now? I thought you were so thick-skinned you could build a wall!"
"Okay, was it you last night?"
Ke Meiyu had been holding back her anger all morning, and now it was all concentrated at her fingertips.
Qin Yuanjiu grabbed her hand tightly, not struggling, but gasping for breath, "Wife, it hurts, it really hurts! Be good, let go..."
"Who's your wife!" Ke Meiyu roared angrily, her face flushed.
"What...what did you see last night?"
When this was mentioned, Qin Yuanjiu fell silent. He had basically seen everything he could see, thanks to his excellent eyesight.
But he couldn't say that. "What could I see? It was pitch black at night, and I only saw your head pop up by the moonlight."
"Saying it's a mermaid is just a flattering term. I thought it was some kind of mountain spirit or water ghost, and I was quite frightened."
Ke Meiyu continued, still unconvinced, "Then how did you know it was me?"
"Huh?" Qin Yuanjiu was bewildered. "Isn't it you? I wouldn't have known who it was if you hadn't mentioned it."
Ke Meiyu gritted her teeth, snorted, put her hand down and continued to grip the back seat, ignoring him again.
Qin Yuanjiu's lips curled up as he looked at the slightly desolate fields, smelled the scent of grass and soil, and felt a faint, sweet warmth emanating from behind him. He felt a peace and tranquility he had never experienced before.
This time, he has a lifetime to hunt!
Upon arriving in town, Qin Yuanjiu parked the car at the police station, intending to take a car with Ke Meiyu to the provincial capital.
"Comrade Qin, you've come at the perfect time!"
