Chu Jingqiu was silent for a few seconds, and when he spoke again, his voice was slightly raised, and he said angrily, "Diao Zhiqing, you don't have to say anything, I understand what you mean.
Let me be frank! I already have a fiancé, and I love him very much.
There is no room for anyone else in my heart. I don't want you to use such rude behavior to force me to talk to you. That will make me hate you even more.
If you give way, we can still be friends when we meet in the future; if you don’t, then we won’t even be friends anymore.”
Qiao Rucheng clenched his fists tightly and said angrily, "Chu Zhiqing, I'm not trying to force you to agree to anything, I just simply like you.
You are only engaged now and not married yet, and I think you have feelings for me too.
I always feel that you are secretly looking at me intentionally or unintentionally, and the fish meat sent at noon must have been sent by you, Zhou Weidong!
This shows that you also have a good impression of me. I hope you can give me a chance and you can get to know me slowly.
Maybe after a while, you will find that Xiao Yihan is not suitable for you at all. I won’t force you. I can wait for you, no matter how long it takes. "
Chu Jingqiu said firmly, "Qiao Zhiqing, I think you misunderstood. I don't have any intentions towards you in that way. I gave you the fish as a thank you for helping us fetch water at noon.
There is no other meaning. As for what you said about waiting for me, I can answer you now. There is no need.
Xiao Yihan and I have similar values and love each other, so the situation you described will never happen. We are going to grow old together, and I also wish you to find your soulmate soon."
After saying that, he took Jiang Jiang to the educated youth site without looking back.
Diao Lijun dropped his hand that was trying to stop him, and Qiao Rucheng stood there in a daze, unable to come back to his senses for a long time.
Back in the room, Lin Zishan and Shi Aihong were studying when they saw Chu Jingqiu coming.
Shi Aihong hurriedly said, "Jingqiu, Diao Lijun and Qiao Rucheng came looking for you again just now. We told them you were not here, but they didn't believe us!
Diao Lijun kept asking you where you had been, saying that he had something important to discuss with you.
We didn’t tell them where you were going, we just said you were out walking the dog, but we didn’t know where you were going.”
Chu Jingqiu recounted what had just happened to the two of them.
Shi Aihong was shocked. "Is Qiao Rucheng sick? He is so self-indulgent. Can't he see that others are rejecting him?"
I sent him a bowl of fish because I didn't want to owe him anything, but he took it to this extent. I'm speechless. I'll stay away from him from now on! This guy is really a bit perverted. "
Lin Zishan sighed, "Jingqiu, why do I feel like Qiao Rucheng is a psychopath? He's been like a madman all day.
You've clearly rejected him this time, so I hope he'll give up and stop pestering you, as it's annoying."
Chu Jingqiu shook her head helplessly, "Love is mutual. If the other person doesn't love you, there's no point in struggling with them. Instead, it makes them feel like a burden."
Now that everything is clear, I should stay away from Qiao Rucheng from now on."
When she went to bed at night, Chu Jingqiu entered the space again. She found a piece of plastic sheet from the space mall and waited for an opportunity to cover the chicken coop with it to keep the chickens warm.
Jiang Jiang went back to the medicinal field and worked for a while. The field was now taking shape. If it continued at this pace, by the time the reform and opening up came, Chu Jingqiu would be able to make a fortune just by selling these precious medicinal herbs.
When Jiang Jiang returned to the room, Chu Jingqiu had already washed up. Jiang Jiang said worriedly, "Qiuqiu, Qiao Rucheng and Diao Lijun stopped you from leaving. Why didn't you let me go up and knock them down?"
Chu Jingqiu smiled and said, "Jiang Jiang, they just wanted to stop me and say a few words, they didn't mean to hurt me.
I haven't broken off relations with them. If you go up and bite them, things will get out of hand and it will have a bad impact on us.
I'm not sure about Diao Lijun's strength yet, and I'm really worried he might hurt you."
Jiang Jiang puffed out her chest and said proudly, "Qiuqiu, you underestimate me. I am a space elf and he can't hurt me.
I can become real or virtual, large or small, but I don't dare to show my strength easily, for fear of arousing suspicion from others."
Chu Jingqiu smiled and patted her little head. "Jiang Jiang, I didn't expect you to be so capable. Now I don't have to worry about my personal safety anymore."

In the military single dormitory in Beijing, Xiao Yihan was doing push-ups as usual, while Qi Yue was eating dried sweet potatoes and reading the newspaper beside him.
He had already eaten several pieces in a row and his teeth were tired from chewing, but he still didn't want to stop.
Xiao Yihan glanced at him and said, "Qi Yue, you've been eating snacks all night and are about to go to bed. Aren't you afraid of indigestion?"
Qi Yue said nonchalantly: "It's okay, I have a good appetite and I can digest it no matter how much I eat.
I’m just worried that these dried persimmons and sweet potatoes aren’t enough for me. I’ll ask my sister-in-law for some dried sweet potatoes next time. They’re really delicious.”
Xiao Yihan stood up and wiped the sweat from his face. "Qi Yue, you are such a foodie. We are not going to Hongqi Town recently. It is not that easy to get dried sweet potatoes."
Qi Yue sighed, "Brother, since someone pretended to be you last time, we haven't found any trace of the spy. Captain Guo has been guarding there for so many days.
But there has been no news so far. What on earth is the spy thinking? Is he not tempted by the treasure?"
Xiao Yihan said in a gentle tone: "After Li Qingpu was exposed, the treasure in Daqing Mountain is no longer a secret.
In this situation, the spies are more cautious than before. If it's not a trap and the treasure map is real, they think we got it before us and it won't be easy for us to find the treasure, so they're not in a hurry to act.
If it's a trap, they'll risk being wiped out, so they have to be more cautious than before, which is why they're thinking of impersonating me to get reliable information."
Qi Yue put away the snacks on the table and took out a document from his bag. "I almost forgot, brother, I have already found out the personal information of Diao Lijun and Qiao Rucheng. Do you want to take a look?"
Xiao Yihan was washing his face when he said casually, "Put the materials there! Tell me the general situation first."
Qi Yue nodded, "Qiao Rucheng was born in 1950. His father, Qiao Zhihua, was a cadre in the Finance Department of the Post and Telecommunications Department. Qiao Rucheng has had a special liking for traditional Chinese medicine since he was a child. After graduating from high school, he went to work in the medical room of a machinery factory.
Two months ago, I went to Qingshan Brigade to work in the countryside on behalf of my younger sister Qiao Ruyun.
Diao Lijun, born in 1949, was born into a working-class family in Beijing. His father was a boiler worker in a woolen mill.
Because he had run a tailor shop to make a living before liberation, his family was classified as a businessman.
Because of their poor background and the fact that they had to raise eight children, their life was rather difficult.
