1970s: Transmigrated into a cannon fodder female supporting character in a lucky koi novel!

Wen Li took out two more White Rabbit milk candies and handed them to Gou Dan, while Ran Ming whispered instructions to him on how to do it.

"Is it that simple?" Gou Dan shook his head dismissively, a hint of regret on his face.

Wen Li patted his small shoulder and waved her finger in front of Gou Dan's eyes. "This is no simple matter. It concerns my future happiness. Can you—do it well?"

Gou Dan was completely taken aback by the flattery. This concerned Wen Zhiqing's lifelong happiness, and he suddenly felt an immense weight on his shoulders. "Wen Zhiqing, don't worry, leave this to me. I guarantee I'll handle it well!"

Go!

Wen Li waved her hand, and Gou Dan left with a proud and arrogant air, but his small figure looked inexplicably weathered!

Wen Li laughed for a long time until her stomach hurt from laughing before she left.

Seeing Jiang Yue'er come down the mountain, Gou Dan's eyes darted around, and then he immediately ran home.

Dog Egg's mother was still busy at home when Dog Egg hurriedly dragged her out.

What are you doing, kid?

"Shh, Mother, keep your voice down!"

Dog Egg's mother slapped him on the head. "Stop pretending! Say what you want to say!"

Dog Egg let out a wail, clutching his head in pain, "Mom~ you've gone mad from all the beating!"

"You're already stupid, and I still have to cook. Have you gotten yourself into trouble again, you little rascal?"

Dog Egg immediately took out the White Rabbit milk candy in his hand, and Dog Egg's mother's eyes almost popped out of their sockets.

"You brat! Where did you come from?"

Dog Egg looked anxious, put his index finger to his lips, and said, "Shh, it was given to me by Guo, the educated youth!"

Jiang Yue'er, who was just passing by, stopped unconsciously when she heard the words "Guo Zhiqing" and then instinctively hid behind the wall.

"Why did Guo, the educated youth, give you milk candy?"

"Mom, where are there any locust trees on the hill behind us? Preferably the kind that's several decades old, with words carved on them?"

Dog Egg's mother was completely confused. "What locust tree? Why would Guo, the educated youth, want to find that unlucky thing?"

"I don't know either. Guo, the educated youth, said that if I helped Jiang find the locust tree, she would give me White Rabbit milk candy!"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Yue'er's mind went blank for a moment, and she almost lost her balance.

Only she and Jiang Chen knew about this, so why would Guo Caixia know?

What does Jiang Chen mean?

Was he just using me?

"Are you stupid? I think that Guo educated youth has bad intentions. I've lived here for decades and I've never seen a locust tree that's decades old. She's definitely trying to trick you into going to the deep mountains. Let me tell you, don't be so greedy, or you'll lose your life!"

Dog Egg caught a glimpse of the figure in the corner of the wall. Mission accomplished, he dropped the pretense. "I understand, Mom. I'm off to finish!"

Dog Egg's mother waved her hand dismissively, "Get lost!"

After the mother and son left, Jiang Yue'er, her face pale, came out from behind.

Her mind was filled with Gou Dan's words. Jiang Chen hadn't told her at first that the search for the locust tree was related to the treasure. It was only later, when she wanted to break up with Jiang Chen, that he had no choice but to tell her the truth. He had also vowed that no third person would know about this.

But now even Guo Caixia knows!

Was Jiang Chen deceiving himself all along?

Thinking of Guo Caixia, Jiang Yue'er was filled with countless thoughts. Jiang Chen had said that he would make her disappear without anyone noticing, but so much time had passed and Jiang Chen hadn't made a single move, showing no intention of dealing with her at all.

So... does Jiang Chen have feelings for Guo Caixia?

He knew he was always lucky, which is why he took advantage of her; otherwise, how could he have gotten Guo Caixia pregnant?

Jiang Yue'er began to doubt Jiang Chen's feelings for her, and her mind was in turmoil.

"Moon, what's wrong? You look so pale!"

He Qiang had finally recovered and was just about to go out for a stroll when he saw Jiang Yue'er return looking distracted.

When Jiang Yue'er saw her older brother, who had protected her since childhood, her eyes instantly reddened. "Brother Qiang, I'm alright!"

Seeing her on the verge of tears, He Qiang felt extremely distressed. He wanted to hug her, but he knew he was not good enough for her, and Yue'er only saw him as her brother. He dared not let her know his dirty thoughts!

"Did that bitch Wen Li bully you again?"

Jiang Yue'er just kept shaking her head in grievance, refusing to say anything. Let He Qiang misunderstand, it's fine. Wen Li has been living so comfortably lately, she's wanted to teach her a lesson for a long time.

He Qiang saw this and felt that Wen Li must have bullied Yue'er again. Thinking of what happened that night, he wished he could tear Wen Li to pieces. He would not let this bitch get away with it!

Wen Li: ...blame me?

Wen Li and others waited on the back mountain. When they saw Gou Dan hopping over, they took out a handful of fruit candies to prepare.

"Wen, I've done everything you asked me to do!"

Gou Dan vividly recounted what had just happened, and Wen Li repeatedly praised him for doing a good job, then gave him a handful of fruit candies.

Gou Dan's face was practically splitting with a grin. "Wen Zhiqing, next time something like this happens, remember to come to me! I'll make sure it's taken care of perfectly!"

Seeing his mature-for-his-years demeanor, Wen Li smiled and pinched his cheek. "Okay, I'll ask you again next time!"

Back at the educated youth compound, Wen Li found that Guo Caixia had not yet returned, but Jiang Chen had. To be honest, he had matured a lot recently, and the arrogant air about him was gone. He didn't seem so annoying anymore.

However, upon seeing Wen Li, the intense killing intent in his eyes remained.

Wen Li simply ignored him, treating him as if he were invisible.

Jiang Chen felt even more upset. This bitch had hurt him so badly, why did she ignore him?

He had a gut feeling that Wen Li shouldn't be like this, at least not in front of him!

Wen Li didn't care what he was thinking. She went back to the house and started making dinner. Chen Yan and Qi Jun had a lot of firewood piled up at the door. After collecting firewood for a few more days, they shouldn't have to go to the back mountain anymore.

As darkness approached, the two returned carrying a large bundle of firewood. The faint melancholy between Chen Yan's brows dissipated, and she looked much brighter.

Seeing the ambiguous atmosphere between the two, Wen Li knew that they had already talked, and it seemed that her inner conflict had been resolved.

"Little Pear, what did you do tonight?"

"I cooked a bowl of noodles. What are you guys planning to eat tonight?"

"Hehe, we're in luck today! Qi Jun caught a bamboo rat. We'll stir-fry it for dinner tonight. Why don't you skip the noodles and come eat with us!"

Seeing the two of them so affectionate, Wen Li didn't want to be a third wheel. "Never mind, my noodles are already cooked. Maybe next time!"

"Okay, I'll go back to my room now!"

Chen Yan went back inside, and Qi Juncai walked over with a smile, "Wen, thank you!"

Wen Li knew what he was talking about, and waved her hand with a smile, "No need, Chen Yan is my friend, and I also hope she can be happy!"

"I still want to thank you, otherwise I don't know when Yanyan would have been able to resolve that knot in her heart!"

"That's all thanks to you. I only said a few words. We all see your efforts. Chen Yan is a good girl; cherish her!"

"Yes! I understand!"
