All three were happy for Su Hao, but Qi Jun remained silent, his eyes filled with complex and indescribable emotions.

Chen Yan immediately noticed something was wrong with Qi Jun's expression. "What's with that expression? Is there another new educated youth giving you a headache?"

Qi Jun disliked gossiping about others, especially when it involved the girl Su Hao had secretly loved for many years.

"No, the new educated youth don't seem difficult to get along with. You'll see when we have lunch together!"

When she finished work at noon, Wen Li finally understood what Qi Jun's complicated expression meant.

After finishing work, Wen Li and Chen Yan returned to the educated youth compound together.

Since everyone was going to have lunch together, the two of them went directly to the front kitchen.

Several new educated youths were still packing their belongings and hadn't come out of their rooms, while the kitchen was full of older educated youths.

"Why don't I see Su Hao?"

Wen Li looked at Niu Zhaodi, who was the first to return.

"Su, the educated youth, went to the village to help the new educated youth get their things; she's not at the educated youth compound!"

The group chatted casually while cooking.

"Xiang Nan, I have some steamed egg cakes here. Have some to tide you over!"

A gentle voice rang out in the courtyard. The girl's voice was as melodious as a clear spring, making people feel comfortable.

The male educated youth who was called Xiang Nan coldly refused, saying, "No need!"

"It's alright, I have plenty more here, don't be shy! If you don't like sponge cake, I also have canned fruit!"

The man's impatient voice came again, "No need!"

Hearing the noise, the people in the kitchen all turned to look outside.

Wen Li looked over and saw a person wearing a white dress and with their hair styled in two fishtail braids... fishtail braids? ???

Wen Li's eyes almost popped out of their sockets. She looked at the girl's hair again and made sure that she had braided it into a fishtail braid!

Good heavens!

She exclaimed, "Wow!"

The prevailing attitude in that era was to work hard and struggle. Even the most beautiful girls would at most braid two neat little braids and tie two hair ornaments.

The girl in the courtyard not only had a fluffy fishtail braid, but also two light green hair ties at the ends, and a few stray bangs on her forehead.

A gust of wind blew, lifting the fine strands of hair on her forehead, making her delicate face appear as gentle and beautiful as a rare orchid in a secluded valley.

Wen Li looked at Niu Zhaodi, "What's that girl's name?"

Niu Zhaodi wore a lewd expression. "Her name is Bai Wei, isn't she pretty! Su Zhiqing was really eager to help her today!"

Wen Li felt as if the world was a giant tomato novel.

The character Bai Wei doesn't appear in the original book, since Su Hao is just cannon fodder and it's never mentioned whether he has anyone he likes.

Looking at Bai Wei now, Wen Li felt that she was surrounded by a faint halo, as if her whole being was glowing.

If Bai Wei weren't a time traveler or a reincarnated person, she would wash herself upside down... Never mind, she won't eat today!

She felt like she had entered a series of strange and wonderful worlds. Bai Wei's setup was definitely that of a female lead!

"It's okay. Oh, and I also brought some Chinese sausage. You love Chinese sausage fried rice, I'll go make it for you now, okay?"

Even though Gu Xiangnan was indifferent, Bai Wei still tried her best to please him.

Gu Xiangnan struggled with his thoughts, his gaze towards Bai Wei filled with deep love, yet also intertwined with a hint of hatred.

"Bai Wei, what do you take me for? A dog you can summon and dismiss at will?"

Bai Wei lowered her head, tears streaming down her face. "No, I even signed up to go to the countryside for you, don't you understand my feelings? Why won't you believe me?"

Bai Wei's tone was very soft, like a feather brushing against everyone's heart, making people feel sorry for this poor girl.

Gu Xiangnan closed his bloodshot eyes and coldly uttered, "Shameless!"

Bai Wei seemed to be hit hard, her body swayed, and she was filled with sadness and regret. The people watching the scene felt even more sorry for her.

"Click~ Click~"

When Wen Li heard the sound of people cracking sunflower seeds, she realized that she seemed to have entered into some strange emotion.

She patted her chest in relief.

This is a story of a woman chasing after her husband in a desperate attempt to win him back!

Based on my past experience reading novels, Bai Wei should be reborn. In her previous life, she married the wrong person and hurt the second male lead who loved her deeply.

After being reborn, she dumped the scumbag and planned to be with the devoted second male lead, but the devoted second male lead had already given up on her, so she was determined to win him back!

And so this wonderful show came about.

So... what role does Su Hao play in it?

Lick the dog?

It's so dramatic, isn't it?

Wen Li was still lamenting that Su Hao was doomed when she saw Niu Zhaodi and Wang Yan secretly wiping away tears while watching the two people in the courtyard.

Wen Li glanced at the two of them with a complicated expression. Their conversation just now would be considered indecent and promiscuous by today's standards. Didn't they realize that something was wrong?

Why are you crying?

Niu Zhaodi sniffed and uttered a classic NPC line.

"This is so touching, sob sob~ Gu Zhiqing is so cruel! How could she treat Bai Zhiqing like this?"

Wenli:......

Doesn't Wen Li understand Niu Zhaodi's personality?

That is, to complain about everything and hate everyone who is richer than her.

Bai Wei had only been in the countryside for less than a day when Niu Zhaodi started speaking up for her. Isn't that the protagonist's halo?

Chen Yan gently nudged Wen Li's arm. "Su Hao is probably going to be heartbroken!"

Wen Li looked at the lovesick couple in the courtyard with mixed feelings, "Isn't that right!"

After Gu Xiangnan left, Bai Wei stood dejectedly in the courtyard. Niu Zhaodi and Wang Yan quickly went out to comfort her, and Bai Wei finally managed a forced smile.

Wen Li and Chen Yan didn't get involved. They were both Su Hao's friends, and Bai Wei was the girl Su Hao liked. Logically, they should have taken care of her.

But judging from what just happened, Wen Li and Chen Yan immediately gave up their idea.

Whether Bai Wei is a good person or not, nobody knows. The fact that she asked Su Hao to take care of Yu Shuang proves that she must have known that Su Hao liked her.

Knowing full well that Su Hao likes her, she still comfortably enjoys the benefits he brings. She's either pretending to be stupid or she's playing the field.

However, those were Su Hao's private matters, and they couldn't interfere.

By the time everyone finished work and returned, the new educated youth had also finished packing their things and come out.

Qi Jun called everyone to the main room. Everyone had arrived, except for Qi Yang and Su Hao, who were recuperating from their injuries.

"Where is Su, the educated youth?"

Before anyone could speak, Bai Wei softly began:

"Sorry, Su Zhiqing went to help me buy some things, she might be back late!"

Worried that people might misunderstand, Bai Wei quickly explained, "Su Zhiqing and I used to be classmates!"

After she finished speaking, Gu Xiangnan's already unpleasant expression darkened even further.

Wen Li kept a close eye on the changes in the expressions of the two men out of the corner of her eye. Was Su Hao just a pawn that Bai Wei used to provoke Gu Xiangnan?
