The sudden praise made the Educated Youth quite embarrassed.
They hadn’t really done anything; it was all thanks to Gu Jiaojiao.
When the Educated Youth realized the praise was because of Gu Jiaojiao, they couldn’t help but look over at her.
Gu Jiaojiao, however, was standing beside Leng Yuan, handing him peanut vines. The two worked in perfect sync, and a large pile of peanuts was already piling up on the bamboo mat in front of them.
She looked as if she had just done sothing trivial, not worth ntioning.
They rembered how thrilled they’d been after being praised for showing off a couple lines of poetry. Seeing Gu Jiaojiao’s composure, completely unfazed by the attention, made them feel ashad of themselves.
So, they quickly got back to work.
Only Li Hongi had complicated feelings.
Back at the Educated Youth post, all Gu Jiaojiao ever did was desperately chase after Yun Hao. She acted like a spoiled young miss with her nose in the air, so everyone kept their distance.
But now Gu Jiaojiao had changed. She radiated confidence, a dazzling presence so beautiful it was hard to look away.
Li Hongi, on the other hand, had not only gotten much darker from a few days of farm work, but Chen Ruoyu and the other two female Educated Youth had also stopped hanging out with her.
’This is all Gu Jiaojiao’s fault.’
’If she were still so stupid, how could I be the one getting ostracized? It was all because of her subtle remarks that Chen Ruoyu started to suspect .’
At this thought, the look in Li Hongi’s eyes as she watched Gu Jiaojiao turned vicious.
Hu Ziqiang was also astonished to see how much Gu Jiaojiao had changed.
It had only been a few days since he last saw her, but Gu Jiaojiao seed like a completely different person.
She was completely captivating. She clearly looked the sa, but the old Gu Jiaojiao was always arrogant, with eyes only for Yun Hao.
But now, she was always smiling and was much kinder, and there was a new spark in her beautiful eyes.
Thinking of Gu Jiaojiao’s feelings for Yun Hao, Hu Ziqiang couldn’t help but glance at Yun Hao beside him.
He saw that Yun Hao’s eyes were also fixed on Gu Jiaojiao, and he seed sowhat lost in thought.
A glint appeared in his eye, and he leaned closer to Yun Hao, whispering, "Don’t you think the Gu Jiaojiao of today is especially captivating?"
Yun Hao pulled his gaze back, glanced at Hu Ziqiang, and explained, "You know how I feel. I won’t fall for any girl other than Wen Wan."
Yun Hao, Hu Ziqiang, and the story’s female lead, Xu Wenwan, were all children from the sa housing compound who grew up together.
Hu Ziqiang and Yun Hao had been inseparable since childhood, so of course, he knew where Yun Hao’s heart lay.
And this was also the reason Yun Hao had always rejected Gu Jiaojiao.
In fact, when Yun Hao had co to the countryside and Gu Jiaojiao confessed her feelings, he had never told her that he already liked soone else.
The old Gu Jiaojiao was arrogant and domineering, but she had her pride.
If Yun Hao had been clear from the start, she might not have pursued him so relentlessly.
These were Gu Jiaojiao’s own thoughts. After all, this was the plot her younger cousin had arranged, all for the sake of giving her a tragic end.
She figured that even if Yun Hao had told her, her cousin would have just arranged for her to throw herself at him anyway. That would have been even more shaless, so it was better that he hadn’t said anything.
At least they were both single, which made her reputation sound a little better.
Hu Ziqiang sighed helplessly. "I know, I know. I was just joking."
He, of course, knew Wen Wan was special to Yun Hao; otherwise, he would have been the first to object.
After all, a girl as kind and pure as Wen Wan deserved the best in the world.
Hu Ziqiang suppressed the bitterness in his heart. His gaze fell on Gu Jiaojiao, and he still felt that sothing was strange.
’She was desperately chasing Yun Hao just a while ago, and then in the blink of an eye, she married Leng Yuan. Now, looking at her, it seems like she’s completely lost interest in Yun Hao?’
’Can a person really change that fast?’
It wasn’t just him; many people felt that Gu Jiaojiao had changed.
