He was first shocked and then outraged.
Wu Xiaoyu was a high school graduate, and so was he.
Why did all the beautiful women like him?
First, it was Li Yuqi, and now this inexplicable woman.
A few months ago, he was just a bumpkin trailing behind him, knowing nothing.
In the blink of an eye, he had become wealthy and influential.
Niu Qiang looked at his angry and jealous expression, shook his head helplessly, and walked out of the chicken farm, heading down the mountain.
As for Liu Sheng’s provocation, it would be better to find a day to explain it clearly to Xiaoyu!
The villagers all turned their heads, glancing at Wu Xiaoyu and Bai Yun with knowing smiles and teasing glances.
Liu Sheng, left standing idly, looked like an idiot.
Bai Yun briefly greeted the villagers and then led a staff member to catch chickens with Wu Xiaoyu.
As they passed by Liu Sheng, Bai Yun puffed out her chest deliberately.
Wu Xiaoyu glanced at her and asked, “What are you doing?
What if you get splashed with blood?”
Bai Yun was stunned for a moment before realizing, pinched him secretly, and said, “So you know my charm, huh?
Tell me honestly, have you been attracted to me…”
Wu Xiaoyu lowered his head, staring at her neck, and mocked, “It’s quite big, but I don’t know if it’s useful.”
Hearing this, Bai Yun gently kicked him.
Liu Sheng, seeing the two flirting, felt furious inside: “Hmph!
Wu Xiaoyu, just wait to be betrayed!”
Wu Xiaoyu led Bai Yun to the chicken shed.
Although most of the chickens had gone out to forage, quite a few well-fed chickens were still lazing around.
These chickens are all the same.
There’s no need to be picky.
Let your people start catching them!” Wu Xiaoyu said.
Although the chickens were in the shed, they weren’t very docile, flapping their wings and clucking loudly.
Bai Yun seemed a bit scared and kept retreating.
She said to the person behind her, “Little Wang, you go!
Just catch a hundred!”
Then, the person behind her, Little Wang, took out a spool of thin rope from his backpack, put on gloves, and dashed toward the chicken shed.
Wu Xiaoyu pulled her aside and teased, “You’ve prepared well, huh?
You even brought rope and gloves!”
“My subordinates are very professional,” Bai Yun responded proudly.
Wu Xiaoyu nodded in compromise and then asked seriously, “Okay, stop joking!
I’m asking you something serious.
You bought a hundred chickens at once.
Can you use them all?
Are you planning to resell them?”
Bai Yun raised an eyebrow and said, “Who do you look down on?
Seeing Wu Xiaoyu still a bit doubtful, Bai Yun sighed and explained, “You know this Daxin Village, is it easy to come in and out?”
“The mountainous roads are bad enough, and they’re also rugged.
Do you expect me to send people every day?
It’s laborious and fuel-consuming!”
Hearing this, Wu Xiaoyu felt relieved but then worried again.
Transportation was indeed a big problem.
Even going to the town to deliver goods was troublesome for him.
If farming and breeding were to scale up in the future, transportation would become an even bigger problem.
It seemed the road must be repaired!
While Wu Xiaoyu was trying to plan ahead, Li Yujia, working in the field with her mother, heard about Bai Yun from the villagers.
Li Yujia’s mother heard from people at the field’s edge that Wu Xiaoyu had a girlfriend from the city.
She felt relieved and even smiled rarely.
“Jiajia, did you know about Xiaoyu’s girlfriend in the city?
Now I can finally put my mind at ease.
Your sister breaking up with him wasn’t unfair to him!” Her mother said, self-questioning and self-answering.
But Li Yujia felt uneasy and confused, as she never realized or admitted she liked Zhang Dadan.
Ever since that night, Zhang Dadan had been on her mind, lingering.
She kept denying her feelings, treating them as a moment of impulse.
Suddenly hearing that Wu Xiaoyu had a girlfriend made her feel unexpectedly down and vaguely heartbroken, with a tinge of…
But what could she do?
She hadn’t even gone to high school, her family was impoverished, and more importantly, her sister had been with him.
What would she amount to?
Holding back her bitterness, Li Yujia said to her mother, “Mom, I’m not feeling well.
Without waiting for a response, she got up and headed back to the village.
Her mother, still happy that her daughter hadn’t hurt anyone, didn’t notice her abnormal behavior.
The more Li Yujia walked, the worse she felt.
Her heart felt like it had been pricked with a needle, and her eyes couldn’t hold back the rain-like tears.
She reached the village entrance, wiped her tears quickly, afraid of being seen, but then she encountered Wu Xiaoyu.
He was walking with a young, beautiful, and stylishly dressed woman.
They were talking and smiling, looking very well-matched.
Afraid of being noticed by Wu Xiaoyu, Li Yujia hurriedly walked behind a big tree, but Wu Xiaoyu had already seen her shadow.
Wu Xiaoyu stopped the conversation and said to Bai Yun, “I’ll stop here.
Little Wang is still waiting for you up ahead.
You should go quickly!”
After parting from Bai Yun, Wu Xiaoyu hesitated for a long time, then walked nervously towards Li Yueyu.
He went to the big tree where she hid, looked around seeing no one, and said with inner conflict:
did something to hurt you.
Hearing this, Li Yujia walked out from behind the tree, determinedly said, “You don’t need to say it.
I won’t ask anything from you!”
Wu Xiaoyu realized she misunderstood his intentions and quickly explained, “That’s not what I mean!
I’ll take responsibility for you!”
Li Yujia’s eyes flashed with joy, but then they dimmed again.
She coldly said, “You don’t need to do this!
I had some responsibility too!
You should find a way to reassure your girlfriend!”
After saying that, she was about to leave, but Wu Xiaoyu grabbed her and said, “You mean…
She’s not my girlfriend!
She’s here to buy local chickens!”
“Really…” Li Yujia couldn’t help but cheer but quickly held back her excitement, saying sadly, “You don’t need to pity me…”
Watching Li Yujia determinedly leave, Wu Xiaoyu felt extremely regretful.
Did he really like her?
To say he never had feelings for Li Yujia would be a lie, but to say he liked her seemed hard to admit.
What was he avoiding?
