ited the Xiaocun Squad several times to inspect their work and assign tasks from the commune. Whenever he saw her, they had a lot to talk about.Her eyes were shy yet joyful as she looked at him. They..."Ouch!" Tang Zhenzhen was now in genuine pain, tears welling up in her eyes. She shoved Ning Yuan away rudely with her hand.

Ning Yuan had already been hit on the back of the head with a club, feeling weak and dizzy. Being pushed like that, she almost fell off the wooden board bed.

Rong Zhaonan was quick-witted and agile. With a stride, he rushed forward, steadying Ning Yuan, and also helping her hold onto the tattered bedding that almost slipped from her grasp.

Tang Zhenzhen looked at her own injured, bleeding wound, then at Ning Yuan leaning against Rong Zhaonan. She felt both pain and anger.

This wretched woman, Ning Yuan, dared to bite her!

She immediately looked at the young man who had just kicked open the door: "Wang Zhiqing, what are you daydreaming about!"

Wang Jianhua watched Ning Yuan lean weakly against Rong Zhaonan's arms.

Although he personally knocked Ning Yuan unconscious and sent her into Rong Zhaonan's room to secure the return-to-city indicator.

Though he watched the scene unfold, a venomous jealousy still sparked within him.

Wang Jianhua brandished his hoe at Rong Zhaonan, angrily yelling: "You heartless beast! You dare to defile our fellow woman! I'll kill you!"

Besides the angry young educated youth from the countryside, many villagers also came with him.

They had prejudice against Rong Zhaonan, this kind of "bad element" who was sent to a cowshed for reform.

Public opinion favors re-education—we must properly discipline these "bad elements," making them engage in productive labor and reforming their thinking.

This villain who was reformed this way, actually dares to mistreat female educated youth!

They deserve to be killed!

Like a hornet's nest had been disturbed, every villager was filled with righteous indignation, brandishing their hoes and shovels, charging towards Rong Zhaonan!

Rong Zhaonan's cold eyes flashed a chilling hint of killing intent, his fists clenched tight, knuckles white with effort.

Seeing the group of young intellectuals and villagers charging towards him, he suddenly loosened his clenched fist.

The man shut his eyes patiently, sneering to himself — Hmph.

After being demoted and reassigned, this kind of situation, he should get used to it, right It's not the first time.

Suddenly, he felt himself being pulled back with all his might.

The girl, who had been leaning against him, stepped forward and shouted at the oncoming crowd.

"Stop, he didn't abuse me, we were talking about a relationship!"

This shout, like a bolt of thunder, struck the heads of the indignant people in the room.

Everyone was stunned, their raised hoes and shovels frozen in mid-air.

Tang Zhenzhen's eyes flashed with astonishment, then her thoughts raced, and she looked incredulous.

"Ning Yuan, what are you saying You're dating this bad guy... your clothes... they belong to him!"

Ha, Ning Yuan this fool, she actually softened her heart and protected Rong Zhao Nan.

That's the best outcome! The indicator for hiring people returning to the city will never reach her!

Ning Yuan looked at her coldly: "Yes, I'm dating Rong Zhaonan."

"Are you crazy!" Wang Jianhua stared at Ning Yuan, his eyes wide with disbelief.

He pursued Ning Yuan for so long, but Ning Yuan didn't look down on him and even flirted with the youngest deputy secretary in the team.

This recruitment back to the city indicator is so rare, only two indicators, Ning Yuan just has one, just because she hooked up with that deputy secretary

He, in a fit of rage, collaborated with Tang Zhenzhen to knock Ning Yuan unconscious, strip her naked, and send her to Rong Zhaonan's room. This scumbag was like a dumping ground for unwanted people. Then he put on this whole show.

Ning Yuan couldn't pass this round of recruitment assessment for returning to the city if she lost her reputation.

But after ten or eight years, everyone forgets about it, and Ning Yuan might not have a chance to return to the city.

Result, now this stupid woman, actually sympathizes with Rong Zhaonan, saying she's dating this villain. Is she crazy!

Once she settled in the countryside for marriage, she was never able to return to the city.

Ke Wang Jianhua opened his mouth, but in the end, he said nothing.

"Instead, a sharp-nosed and thin middle-aged woman came forward and sneered first—"

"Oh, so you can't stand being alone, you turned to cheating! How shameless, flirting and going to bed with bad guys!"

She is Tang Zhenzhen's second aunt and naturally knows what Tang Zhenzhen wants to do. She immediately adds insult to injury.

The villagers' eyes toward Ning Yuan instantly filled with contempt and disgust.

If this were her own daughter sleeping with a man before marriage, she would be thrown into the pigsty! It would be such a shame!

Ning Yuan gritted her teeth and stared at the middle-aged woman: "First, Rong Zhaonan and I are talking about getting together. He's unmarried, and so am I. That's not called 'being a third party'! Your daughter Xia Hua is also dating someone from the neighboring village, isn't she She's also being a third party, and it's just as pathetic!"

That middle-aged woman immediately exploded, jumping up and shouting, "What nonsense are you talking about!"

Ning Yuan ignored her and turned to look at the village head who was frowning at the doorway: "Old Village Head, I don't know what Tang Zhenzhen saw. I was grazing pigs by the creek when I accidentally fell into the river. He saved me and brought me back to change my clothes."

Next to the barn was a small stream, everyone knew that.

"He and I have already decided to apply for marriage, so tomorrow I'll go to the unit to write an introduction letter!" Ning Yuan once again stated crisply.

Her blunt and straightforward words left both the villagers and the educated youths stunned.

It's obvious to everyone that she is supporting Rong Zhaonan.

"Ning Yuan, your awareness is too low! You actually associate with bad elements like those who clean cow sheds!" Wang Jianhua was so angry his face turned blue.

Ning Yuan had always rejected the advances of this team's newly elected "Five Good Youth," yet she defended a man she had only met twice, a man everyone avoided

The old scribe finally held his pipe and knocked on the door, frowning as he spoke—

"Since it's a misunderstanding, Ning Zhiqing said she wanted to get married with Dr. Rong. No one said that people under re-education couldn't get married. All of you just disperse!"

He certainly didn't want the rural youth and reform through labor personnel to cause any trouble.

When they went to the Youth Office and commune, their advanced team, Red Flag, disappeared, and they even had to deduct collective work points.

Seeing that the village head had spoken, the others became embarrassed and didn't know how to stay any longer.

Everyone looked down at Ning Yuan on the bed with disdain and then turned to leave.

Tang Zhenzhen felt extremely happy and pulled Wang Jianhua, who was filled with resentment, away along with her second aunt.

She couldn't let Wang Jianhua become jealous and cause trouble, disrupting the "relationship" between Ning Yuan and Rong Zhao Nan, those two bad guys.

Rong Zhaonan closed the leaky door and turned to Ning Yuan. He saw her with sweat on her forehead, huddled in her blanket sitting on the wooden board bed.

Behind his thick black-rimmed glasses, his narrowed eyes flashed with an unfathomable light: "You, why would you help me"

One who offers unsolicited favors is either a thief or a traitor.

Ning Yuan heard the coldness and wariness in his words, and fell silent for a while: "Because helping you is also helping myself."

Rong Zhao nan pressed his spectacles, his gaze as cold and sharp as that of an interrogator: "So Tell me."

Ning Yuan didn't know when he had stood before her. The man was extremely close.

She was so close she could smell the cold air around him.

Ning Yuan panicked and wanted to hide back: "Stay away from me."

Rong Zhaonan saw her 'guilty' look, unconsciously raised his hand and pressed her shoulder, coldly saying: "What are you hiding"

Ning Yuan shrank her body, the collarbone and shoulder beneath her neckline being grasped by a man's large hand.

The strange touch made her blush, and she struggled: “What... what are you doing!”

Struggling, the blanket suddenly fell to the ground.

......That...that wasn't because you stole Zhenzhen's money and belongings, we would have misunderstood you!"Ning Yuan suddenly snatched the big water pail beside her and splashed a bucket of stinking water...
