Looking at Wen Li and Chen Yan's expressions, Deng Wei turned his head and met a pair of resentful eyes.

He felt goosebumps all over his body. "Bai, Bai Zhiqing, what's wrong with you...?"

Su Hao froze as he ate the chicken feet. He turned around and saw Bai Wei crying with tears streaming down her face. His heart tightened, and he immediately put down his chopsticks and went to the door.

"Weiwei, why are you crying?"

Su Hao's words were like a switch being flipped; Bai Wei immediately threw herself into Su Hao's arms, crying uncontrollably.

"Waaaaah, Su Hao, I feel so awful!"

Everyone: Isn't his name Su?

And... is it really okay for us to hug like this?

Su Hao also realized this, and feeling the soft body in his arms, he didn't know where to put his hands.

"Don't cry, tell me what happened. Did someone bully you?"

Bai Wei continued to cry, and Su Hao patiently comforted her.

Several people at the dinner table were eating while watching a play.

"Bai Zhiqing cried so beautifully!" Li Xiangxiang whispered to Wen Li.

Wen Li nodded in agreement. When she cried, tears and snot streamed down her face. She didn't know how Bai Wei could cry so beautifully.

"boom--"

"Crunch~~"

A loud crash rang out, and everyone nearly dropped their chopsticks.

Zhou Yu choked and coughed, so Deng Wei quickly poured him a glass of water, which he drank in large gulps before he felt better.

Qi Jun quickly got up and went outside the door, where he saw Gu Xiangnan looking at Su Hao and Bai Wei with a gloomy face.

His expression was exactly like that of a husband catching his wife cheating; his eyes were bloodshot, and the veins on his arms were bulging, as if he wanted to bite Su Hao to death at any moment.

Broken jars lay scattered on the ground, glass shards flying everywhere.

The door to Su Hao's room next door was still creaking and rattling, showing how much force he was using.

Although Bai Wei appeared frightened, she was secretly overjoyed. Using Su Hao to provoke Gu Xiangnan was truly effective!

"Xiang Nan, I..."

Gu Xiangnan's gloomy eyes swept back and forth between Su Hao and Bai Wei, then he turned and left without looking back.

Bai Wei forcefully pushed Su Hao, the "tool," away and quickly chased after him.

"Xiang Nan, wait for me! Let me explain..."

Everyone could still hear the joy in Bai Wei's voice.

Wen Li shouted irritably at Gu Xiangnan's retreating figure, "Hey! Don't you have any manners? Clean up the broken glass on the ground before you leave!"

Everyone:……

What's going on here?

Everyone here is smart; they saw through Bai Wei's little trick at a glance.

Su Hao: ...

He was just a tool, wasn't he? He wasted his youth on dogs!

Deng Wei stepped forward jokingly, "Are you still going to give her the house?"

Su Hao almost burst into tears again. He was such a fool!

Now that I've seen Bai Wei run off with Gu Xiangnan, I've finally given up hope.

"I thought she came to the countryside specifically to see me!"

Everyone had already laughed at him in the afternoon, and now seeing his dejected appearance, they couldn't bear to laugh at him anymore.

Indeed, he had liked Bai Wei for many years. Even when he went to the countryside, the two often exchanged letters. Su Hao also frequently sent her things back home, which she accepted without hesitation.

Besides, Bai Wei never said she had someone she liked.

It's not hard to understand why Su Hao was agitated and misunderstood when she suddenly went to the countryside without saying a word.

Zhou Yu felt a pang of pity for Su Hao. "Alright, cry if you want to. We won't laugh at you!"

Su Hao burst into tears with a loud "Wah!"

Qi Jun looked at Su Hao with sympathy, then at Deng Wei.

"Deng, Zhou, you two take Su out for a walk. I'll have Gu clean up here!"

Deng Wei and Zhou Yu immediately pulled Su Hao away.

The yard was littered with broken glass. Now everyone wears straw sandals, and you can easily cut your feet if you're not careful.

Qi Jun went to the front yard and saw Bai Wei coaxing Gu Xiangnan in a low voice. Although Gu Xiangnan had a stern face, there was a smile in his eyes.

The atmosphere between the two was so cloying and uncomfortable to watch.

"Ahem~ Excuse me, gentlemen!"

Gu Xiangnan enjoyed Bai Wei's submissive manner, while he looked at Qi Jun with annoyance.

"Something's wrong!"

The tone made it seem as if Qi Jun owed him millions, and the smile on Qi Jun's face vanished.

"Gu Zhiqing, there's broken glass everywhere in the backyard. Could you please clean it up?"

Gu Xiangnan had never been criticized like this before. He frowned and looked at Bai Wei. Bai Wei was most afraid of Gu Xiangnan getting angry, so she quickly spoke up:

"I'll handle it. Xiang Nan, you've had a long day, go home and rest!"

Seeing that Bai Wei was so sensible, Gu Xiangnan snorted and turned to go back to his dormitory, showing no intention of cleaning up the broken glass.

Seeing that Gu Xiangnan was finally willing to talk to her, Bai Wei happily went to the backyard.

"Qi, is Su here?"

Qi Jun's lips twitched. "So you've used me and then changed how you address me?"

"Su, the educated youth, has gone out on some errands!"

Bai Wei frowned. "Let's deal with these glass shards when Su Zhiqing comes back. I'm afraid I'll prick my hand!"

Even Qi Jun, with his good temper, was about to lose control.

"Since Bai Zhiqing is unwilling to handle it, then I'll go and ask Gu Zhiqing to handle it himself!"

Qi Jun was about to head to the front yard when Bai Wei quickly stopped him.

"No, it's not like I'm not going to deal with it. Can't I even wait a little while?"

"There's broken glass everywhere on the ground, making it inconvenient for people to get around. If someone gets injured, can you take responsibility?"

"I……"

"I'll give you twenty minutes. If you haven't sorted it out by then, I'm going to call Gu Zhiqing. If she gets angry, don't blame me for speaking up!"

Qi Jun spoke without any politeness, which made Bai Wei so angry that she almost lost her gentle image.

But when she heard Gu Xiangnan get angry, she immediately regained her composure.

"I'll pack it right away!"

Qi Jun nodded and ignored Bai Wei, that troublesome woman.

After cleaning up the dishes, Wen Li and Chen Yan went for a walk around the village.

The news of Bai Wei getting lost yesterday has spread like wildfire in the village today, with everyone criticizing her for being brainless.

Wen Li sighed inwardly, thinking that Bai Wei's ability to cause trouble was probably extraordinary!

The three of them chatted with the aunties for a while, and when the sun went down, they headed towards the educated youth compound.

"Su, did you ask the owner of that house? Did he agree to give it up?"

A hint of hurt flashed in Su Hao's eyes. "No, I don't get along with Jiang Zhiqing. You should ask her yourself!"

"You..." Bai Wei looked at Su Hao with a hurt expression, "Su Hao, are you unwilling to help me?"

Su Hao turned his face away from Bai Wei, afraid that he would soften his heart.

"No, I'm telling the truth!"

"If you don't rent that room, I won't move into yours. You figure it out yourself!"

Bai Wei confidently uttered these words and turned to leave, leaving Su Hao with only a resolute silhouette.

She walked slowly, seemingly waiting for Su Hao to catch up and apologize.

Su Hao had come to a decision. Even if Bai Wei didn't like him, he was still willing to give her the house, since Bai Wei had helped him before.

He was far from willing to help Gu Xiangnan resolve the house issue!
