Li Hongi turned her face away. She had nothing in common with the other educated youths and couldn’t be bothered to talk to them.
One of the educated youths nearby, unaware of what Li Hongi was thinking, couldn’t help but praise Gu Jiaojiao.
"Gu Zhiqing is so beautiful. That red suits her complexion perfectly. I wish I were that pretty."
"Then I wouldn’t have to worry about finding a husband."
The educated youth sighed wistfully.
After speaking, she looked over at Li Hongi.
"Hong i, don’t you agree?"
Li Hongi sneered. "I don’t have to worry about finding a husband."
"Besides, I’m beautiful too—not a bit worse than Gu Jiaojiao."
The other educated youth’s eyes imdiately widened.
She looked at Li Hongi’s wide, flat face, and her dark complexion that had only lightened a tiny bit.
"Li Hongi, you’re uglier than I am! How dare you compare yourself to Gu Jiaojiao?"
Li Hongi: ...
’What is this person spouting nonsense about?’
’I’m good-looking, and my skin has gotten much fairer. How could I possibly be uglier than her?’
’I get it now.’
’She’s just jealous of , so she’s saying that on purpose.’
The way Li Hongi looked at the other girl changed instantly.
Seeing Li Hongi’s strange expression, the other educated youth couldn’t help but inch closer to Chen Ruoyu.
Even though they were roommates, no one liked to spend ti with Li Hongi.
The reason was simple: Li Hongi was ugly but thought herself beautiful, and she spent all day daydreaming.
The villagers’ portions of pork had been distributed, and now it was the educated youths’ turn.
The first to go up was Li Fenggu.
He was near the front of the line and got a piece with a good amount of fat.
As far as pork went, this was considered a first-rate cut.
The next few people also did well.
However, as the pile of pork shrank, the remaining cuts were mostly lean.
Finally, only Yun Hao, Hu Ziqiang, and Li Hongi remained.
On the butcher’s block, aside from what had been set aside, only one piece remained to be distributed.
Just then, Yun Hao stepped forward, and when he saw the remaining cut, his expression froze.
"Can I get a different piece?"
Leng Yuan didn’t even look up as his cleaver rose and fell.
"No more at."
With that, a piece of pig’s butt was weighed and tossed onto the block in front of Yun Hao.
Yun Hao: ...
He pressed his lips together.
"Leng Yuan, I believe a man should have so magnanimity, not be petty about things that are long past. How could Gu Jiaojiao possibly like soone like you?"
’Giving the pig’s butt... he was definitely doing this on purpose.’
’It’s all because Gu Jiaojiao used to pursue . That’s why this man has been targeting .’
’For a man to be so petty... I must convince Gu Jiaojiao to leave Leng Yuan as soon as possible.’
Hearing this, Leng Yuan finally raised his head to look Yun Hao straight in the eye.
"Say that again!"
Unlike Yun Hao’s gentle deanor, Leng Yuan’s gaze was forceful, domineering, and brimming with aggression.
Just eting that overwhelmingly oppressive gaze was almost more than Yun Hao could stand.
Those eyes were too ferocious, too full of killing intent.
It made him involuntarily recall the sight of Leng Yuan, arm tensed as he brandished a sickle and sliced clean through half a wild boar’s head. The warm blood had sprayed all over his face.
The re thought of that scene made Yun Hao’s breath catch in his throat. It felt as if he couldn’t even draw in oxygen. He looked away, looking quite pathetic as he gasped for air.
Leng Yuan’s expression remained unchanged as he watched the pathetic-looking Yun Hao with indifference.
Yun Hao didn’t dare to et Leng Yuan’s gaze any longer.
His expression darkened.
’He’d been one of heaven’s chosen his entire life and had never known defeat.’
’Leng Yuan was just a villager from a tiny hamlet in the Qingshan Team. He had no right to even be compared to .’
"Leng Yuan, I’m an educated man! If you have any real skill, then let’s compete with our studies. What kind of talent is being fierce?!"
The team leader: ...
Everyone else: ...
