Chapter 276: Chapter 276 Look at the good things you’ve done (Monthly ticket 450+ more)

Wang Mengmeng faced major embarrassment.

She and Du Zhong slandered Suizi, saying that Suizi looked down on those who trade, only to see Suizi enthusiastically selling books.

Wang Mengmeng didn’t even dare to say goodbye, sneaking away in shame.

Glancing back from a distance, she saw Suizi beckoning Du Zhong into her stall, letting him sit on the tractor as they chatted.

Wang Mengmeng snorted, a bitter taste creeping up her throat.

"I don’t understand why these men are all bewitched by her." She muttered to herself.

A rogue like Yu Jingting is smitten with Suizi.

So is Du Zhong, a man who appears wealthy.

"She’s as pudgy as a pig; the only redeeming quality is her face..." Wang Mengmeng stopped mid-sentence, sensing hostility.

Looking up, she found Yu Jingting standing opposite her with his arms folded, staring at her icily.

Wang Mengmeng had no idea if he heard her, feeling cold sweat trickle down her back.

"But you’re quite skinny." Yu Jingting’s eyes swept over Wang Mengmeng, sharp as knives.

Wang Mengmeng was scared into silence, wishing she could turn around and run.

But you’re ugly. What good is skinny? Do you know how you differ from a bowl of feces?"

At this, Wang Mengmeng could only shake her head, her mind gone blank with fear.

As Suizi was chatting with Du Zhong, she looked over and was left speechless.

Yu Jingting must have said something to Wang Mengmeng. She covered her face, weeping loudly as she ran away, apparently deeply distressed.

Upon witnessing this, even Du Zhong’s lips twitched into a smirk.

Yu Jingting casually sauntered back, whistling cheerfully.

He hadn’t taken someone down a peg in a while, and now that he had, he felt utterly refreshed.

"What wind blew Director Du here?"

"I have a business proposition for you – what on earth did you say to make that girl cry?"

While exchanging pleasantries with Yu Jingting, Du Zhong took the opportunity to sneak glances at Suizi’s reactions.

Jingting was definitely a man of character. Six out of the ten times they met, he was always belittling someone or getting into a fight.

It was hard to understand how mild-mannered Suizi could put up with such a hot-headed man.

"What did you say to her?" Suizi asked curiously.

"Not much, I just told her that the only thing separating her from a bowl of shit, is the bowl," he replied casually.

Yu Jingting’s malicious words left Du Zhong speechless. He would never utter such crude words to any woman.

Even if he didn’t like Wang Mengmeng, he wouldn’t express it openly.

Stealthily, Du Zhong eyed Suizi, who was looking down.

Poor girl, she must have been frightened by Yu Jingting’s blatant remarks, right?

As Yu Jingting raised his eyebrows a notch, he caught sight of Suizi’s hesitating response.

This little maid had clearly improved her argument skills. As long as she didn’t come across anyone too formidable, she could certainly hold her own.

Typical dialogues with the Yu family women were full of wit. Suizi could blindside anyone with just a few learned phrases.

"With a command of three hundred Tang poems, one doesn’t have to compose poems but can recite." Suizi filed away today’s golden quotes from Yu Jingting in her delight.

When she noticed Yu Jingting watching her mischievously, Suizi returned a shy smile.

"We’re improving together." She taught him to read and study, while he taught her to argue. Thus, the couple progressed together.

Du Zhong couldn’t make sense of it all.

As a couple, one seemed supremely refined whereas the other was so crassly bold it was as though they were from two different worlds. Yet, when they stood together, they seemed surprisingly harmonious, leaving Du Zhong feeling perplexed.

On this occasion, Du Zhong mainly came to procure medicinal herbs, offering a hefty sum.

Yu Jingting, having accepted the job, should be happy. But there was something else weighing on his mind.

After seeing off Du Zhong, Suizi couldn’t resist pulling out her mini abacus. Barely the size of half her hand, her plump fingers swiftly moved about on it.

"As long as there’s enough medicinal herbs on the mountain, we should at least earn this much. After we finish this job, it’s wheat planting season, and then medicinal herb gathering in the autumn. We should afford another tractor by the end of the year."

Whenever Suizi talked about money now, her spirit was high. Starting a new life required funds everywhere. Finding Yu Jingting staring at her intensely, Suizi felt puzzled.

"Why are you staring at me?"

"You are a fool." Yu Jingting reached out and pinched her face, leaving Suizi even more puzzled.

Even Wang Mengmeng realised Du Zhong had feelings for Suizi. Du Zhong must also have been drilling Wang Mengmeng for information during their journey.

"What?" Caught up in predicting this year’s sales, Suizi was beaming. She was startled by his comment.

"The guy likes you." His voice was devoid of emotion, as if he was discussing the weather.

Her abacus paused and she slowly looked up. Yu Jingting was looking down, lighting a cigarette. She couldn’t see his face.

"But, the only one I like is you." Her response was just as casual, candid, without any pretenses.

Yu Jingting’s cigarette fell to the ground as he locked eyes with her clear ones. He curled his lips into a grin and teasingly beckoned her over with his fingers.

"Sweetheart, come here, I have something to show you."

"What?" Suizi approached him, just to be enveloped in darkness.

He grabbed her collar and lifted it over their heads. His opened coat created a small, private, pitch-dark universe for them.

Then suddenly, his lips lightly brushed against hers, catching her off guard completely.

Her heart pounded in surprise. She had never expected him to do something like this in broad daylight and in full public view!

In the hazy darkness, she felt her hand being grabbed and pressed to his chest.

"Little pig spirit, see what you’ve done! Here, look at what you’ve turned this into."

When their coat sanctuary lifted, Suizi’s face was flushed, and she couldn’t bring herself to look up.

It felt as though the whole world knew what she just did under that coat.

If it was just two years earlier, his behavior would have surely landed both of them in trouble.

Feeling guilty, Suizi attempted to bury her head like an ostrich, crouching on the ground, pretending to organize books. No matter how much Yu Jingting teased, she refused to look up

She had spent two lifetimes playing the good girl. But now, after being with him, it seemed like she was only doing crazy things.

"Pack up! There’s an inspection coming!" Yu Jingting yelled.

Instantly, Suizi shot up, no longer shy. She picked up the box and tossed it onto the cart. Her swift actions showed no sign of her being pregnant.

Looking around, she didn’t see any inspectors, which annoyed her enough to give Yu Jingting a shove.

"Big liar!"

"Hey~"

Infuriated and embarrassed, Suizi slapped Yu Jingting in rapid succession.

"The inspectors are here, run!"

"Still fooling me?"

Suizi looked up only to see uniform-clad men approaching.

Turns out, the inspectors were truly coming this time.

Instantly, the entire street broke into chaos, with small vendors running amok, carrying their boxes.

Yu Jingting tossed all the boxes onto the cart, easily helped Suizi up, and drove off on the tractor.

"Yu Jingting, stop right there!" From a distance, Liao Yong recognized the pair and waved at them to stop.

"Buddy, you hold them off. I’ll use my vehicle to catch up with them, I’ll be faster!"

Yu Jingting drove the tractor with one hand, throwing a fake kiss back at Liao Yong. The tractor sped away, out of reach.

Liao Yong was left speechless and irritated by the blatant lie.

Chasing after them was pointless. This was the largest stand on the whole street, wasn’t it?
