Shocking! My Rugged Husband is the Hidden Tycoon in the 70s Novel-Chapter 148: All Seen Clearly

"He even set fire to the straw stack, this is clearly damaging public property," Kong Lijuan tentatively said.

Obviously, she intended for someone to report Jiang Xingye; her intentions were plain as day.

Qu Qiongfang lay on the bed, saying nothing.

Duan Qingmei gently nudged her, she turned over, "Just sleep!"

Xu Manman suddenly sat up, "Sister Qiongfang, you’re the deputy leader of the educated youth team, what do you think? We can’t just watch as Lijuan is bullied like this. We’re a group, today it’s her, tomorrow it might be one of us!"

The sympathy for the dead rabbit is the most capable of swaying hearts.

Even Duan Qingmei, who was previously worried about being affected by Kong Lijuan’s reputation, now stood on this side.

In the dark, Qu Qiongfang’s tone was very calm, "Just sleep, anything that needs to be said can wait until tomorrow!"

Since the time for emergency harvesting has been decided, it won’t be delayed for anything. If it rains during the harvest, half a year’s hard work will be wasted, not to mention the whole production team will go hungry.

No one with any sense would drag their feet at a time like this.

Qu Qiongfang, who has been in the countryside for six or seven years, cannot be muddle-headed about what is of greater importance.

Although impulsive, Duan Qingmei always knew Qu Qiongfang was smart. Seeing her unwilling to take the lead, she gave up the thought, Xu Manman couldn’t believe she wouldn’t be moved by what she said, thinking Qu Qiongfang was yielding to the Jiang Family’s influence in Shangjiang Team.

"Sister Qiongfang, maybe I’m naive, but I just feel we came to the countryside to develop the vast rural areas, not to get bullied, and certainly not to become wives for these country bumpkins," Xu Manman’s tone was tinged with obvious disappointment and dissatisfaction.

Since Duan Qingmei decided to follow Qu Qiongfang, she wouldn’t tolerate Xu Manman’s sarcasm, "Little Xu Zhiqing, aren’t you Xu Qinghuan’s sister? Jiang Xingye is your brother-in-law. If something happens to him, will your sister be okay? You really can’t stand seeing your sister well?"

It was a while before Xu Manman said, "Zhiqing Duan, how can you say such a thing? I can’t stand my sister being well? Don’t you know my aunt doesn’t approve of this marriage?

How can such a rogue be worthy of my sister? Besides, Lijuan is one of us, I can’t bear to watch her be forced and have her life ruined,"

Kong Lijuan was genuinely hurt and sad. Even marrying Jiang Xingye was better than marrying Sun Laizi. She started crying, sobbing like a ghost in the dark night.

Duan Qingmei’s mood worsened instantly, angrily shouted, "Stop crying, what’s the use of crying now? If you don’t want to marry, go to the commune tomorrow and complain to the educated youth office, don’t disturb everyone’s rest, we don’t owe you."

Chen Dewen got out of bed to use the toilet, passed under the back wall of the female educated youth dormitory, heard the conversation, and was shocked to hear about reporting to the commune?

He quickly went back, exited through their side’s designated door, originally intending to find Jiang Xingye, thought about it and went to knock on Xu Qinghuan’s door instead.

Qing Xiao was sleeping on the floor of Xu Qinghuan’s room, heard the commotion outside, whimpered, which woke Xu Qinghuan without disturbing Yu Xiaomin, then went alone to open the door.

Qing Xiao followed behind her, she walked to the door and asked, "Who is it?"

It didn’t feel like Jiang Xingye’s presence.

They’ve been intimate, and she was very familiar with Jiang Xingye’s presence.

Chen Dewen’s voice came from outside, "It’s me, Qinghuan, Kong Lijuan wants to report to the educated youth office about Comrade Jiang, claiming he’s forcing her to marry Sun Laizi."

Xu Qinghuan was silent for a moment, then said, "Okay, I understand."

Chen Dewen replied, "Alright, I’ll leave now. Make sure Comrade Jiang is careful."

"Thank you!"

She took out her watch from the space to check, it was now half past one in the night, returned to the room, changed into black clothes, put on a black mask, a baseball cap, and left the room with Qing Xiao.

Meanwhile, Chen Dewen came over to knock, waking Jiang Xingye, who stood on the well platform, saw Chen Dewen exchange a couple of words with Xu Qinghuan before leaving, and didn’t pay too much attention.

Returning to the room to sleep for a while, he heard Xu Qinghuan leaving, Qing Xiao trailing behind, feeling uneasy and about to follow, saw Xu Qinghuan going to the educated youth point.

The space held many beneficial elixirs for the body, and quite a few harmful things.

Xu Qinghuan blew some colorless, odorless smoke into the room where the female educated youth lived, stood by the window for a while, then left.

Qing Xiao stayed close behind her.

Whether sensing anything or not, Jiang Xingye caught her looking this way.

In the dark night, Jiang Xingye’s eyesight was particularly good, able to see even objects ten meters away clearly, with keen perception, which kept him at a certain distance from Xu Qinghuan.

Thinking it over, Jiang Xingye found it unsurprising that Xu Qinghuan could perceive him, after all, she was the one who took out the elixirs.

Sun Laizi’s home could be described as bare walls, the courtyard wall no more than half a meter high, easy to step over, and two wobbly gates, a slight push with a finger could send them to their demise.

Xu Qinghuan blew some smoke into both wing rooms, then effortlessly opened Sun Laizi’s room door, quickly stepped inside and came out, casually closing the gate of the Sun Family.

After leaving the Sun Family, instead of returning to the Xu Family, she went to Jiang Xingye’s home, the gate was slightly open, she pushed it open, stood in the courtyard for a while, then said, "Not coming in?" 𝚏𝕣𝕖𝚎𝚠𝚎𝚋𝚗𝐨𝐯𝕖𝕝.𝕔𝐨𝕞

Jiang Xingye reluctantly entered from outside the courtyard wall, under the moonlight, Xu Qinghuan had removed the mask, only wearing a baseball cap, dressed in clothes he’d never seen, her face hidden under the brim, making it hard to see her expression, only feeling she was like a sprite stepping out of the night.

"Huanhuan!" Jiang Xingye called nervously, unsure if Xu Qinghuan was angry, since no one likes being followed.

Xu Qinghuan approached, tugged his ear lightly, not painfully, he just felt a warmth surge through him, his hands gaining a will of their own as he pulled her into his arms.

"Don’t you have anything to explain?" Xu Qinghuan quipped, not truly angry, likely due to her excessive trust in Jiang Xingye.

In a past life, aside from herself, she trusted no one.

According to her life’s creed, she shouldn’t trust anyone, even if she trusts someone, it shouldn’t be without limits, but with Jiang Xingye, she didn’t want to guard herself too much.

In the vast sea of people, walking alone, no matter how beautiful the scenery along the way, there are moments of loneliness and solitude.

Life is like a battlefield, fighting alone is immensely tough, if you can entrust your back to another, relying on each other eases much burden.

If betrayal inevitably occurs in the future, she’ll deal with it then.

She never engaged in worrying about baseless fears.

"I heard noise over at your place, so I got up to check, saw Comrade Chen come to talk with you. After he left, I went back to sleep, and after a bit, heard you leave, in the middle of the night. I was worried, initially wanted to go with you, when you went to the educated youth point, I avoided for a while."

Unexpectedly, by avoiding, it became impossible to catch up.
