Chapter 330: Chapter 329: The Aggrieved Xu Jing

At that moment, outside a barbershop in Wanshan County town, stood two women.

Both were of similar age, but their demeanor and dress were starkly different.

One of them was Xu Jing, who had been stood up by Zhang Xiaoshan.

Xu Jing wore jeans, a short-sleeve top, and sported a ponytail, her face makeup-free, exuding a gentle temperament.

The other woman, standing with her, had big, curly, dyed blonde hair and wore a black bodycon skirt that was revealing almost half of her buttocks. Her makeup was heavy, and both her nose and chin had been surgically altered, giving off a rather sassy vibe.

Yet even so, Xu Jing’s beauty eclipsed hers.

Hu Caixia, Xu Jing’s high school classmate. Their relationship was passable, but after high school, Hu Caixia attended a vocational college while Xu Jing went to a 211 normal university, and they gradually lost touch. Hu Caixia had also changed a lot.

"Little Jing, how much longer until your boyfriend arrives? It’s been so long, he didn’t stand you up, did he?"

Hu Caixia said with an impatient look.

Xu Jing was also somewhat embarrassed and displeased.

Her mood was somewhat downcast.

"That jerk Zhang Xiaoshan promised me that night, and now he stands me up?"

She thought to herself.

But she was also somewhat unwilling to think.

"Zhang Xiaoshan doesn’t seem like someone who would break his promise; even if he wasn’t coming, he would have at least answered my calls. Perhaps something urgent came up?"

"He will definitely come, right?"

Thinking this, she said hopefully to Hu Caixia.

"Caixia, he will surely come."

Hu Caixia, as if someone had stepped on her tail, exaggeratedly yelled.

"I, don’t call me Caixia, it’s such a countrified name. Haven’t I told you, I’m now an internet celebrity, and I’ve changed my name? Call me Lisa."

"Okay, okay, Lisa."

As they were speaking, Xu Jing’s phone rang.

Xu Jing hurriedly looked at it.

On seeing the caller ID was Zhang Xiaoshan, she was so thrilled she almost cried.

Hurriedly, she answered the call.

Before Xu Jing could complain, Zhang Xiaoshan cut in first.

"I’m sorry, I ran into some urgent matters in the village. So, where are you?"

"Can I still make it if I come now?"

Zhang Xiaoshan sounded reasonably sincere, which diffused most of Xu Jing’s anger immediately.

"I’m in the county. Where are you?"

"I’m still in the village."

"What, you’re still in the village? Walking down the mountain and then taking a bus here will take three to four hours at least, and it’ll be dark by then?"

"Hmph, you promised to accompany me to the reunion, and you stand me up."

Xu Jing’s words came out increasingly plaintive.

Primarily because, at today’s reunion, there would be people she really disliked, and without Zhang Xiaoshan’s company, she was feeling greatly upset.

"No, don’t cry."

On hearing Xu Jing’s tears, Zhang Xiaoshan immediately softened.

"When does your reunion start?"

"It should start soon, in about an hour or so." Xu Jing checked the time, feeling very wronged.

Zhang Xiaoshan quickly calculated the time and said.

"Don’t worry, I have a car. If I hurry, I might be able to make it in two hours. Otherwise, you start and I’ll find you midway."

On hearing Zhang Xiaoshan’s words, Xu Jing’s demeanor relaxed somewhat.

"Then hurry up, I’ll wait for you. If you can’t make it, then I won’t go either. I haven’t seen these classmates for a long time; you see what you can do."

"I’ll send you the location on WeChat."

After saying this, Xu Jing hung up without further ado.

"Dammit, who’s asking whom for a favor? Is this the attitude to ask for help?"

Zhang Xiaoshan vented angrily in his mind.

He then hurried back to the infirmary.

"What, your boyfriend’s still up in the mountains? Isn’t he just a bumpkin?"

Hu Caixia asked Xu Jing with a curious face, having eavesdropped on the phone call.

Xu Jing, not good at lying, honestly replied.

"Yes, he’s in the mountains, but he’s no bumpkin. He has a formal job, he’s the village doctor, and he’s a top student from Medical University, he’s also very handsome."

"What, really from the mountains?"

Upon hearing Xu Jing’s words, Hu Caixia became excited.

"Little Jing, what are you doing? It’s fine that you went to the mountains to teach, but to pick a wandering herbalist from the mountains? If you two have a child, won’t it end up a little bumpkin too?"

"You’re so beautiful, why settle for such a poor match?"

"Handsome? Handsomeness can’t be eaten as food, that’s just you being lovesick."

"No, Little Shan isn’t what you think, he might be a village doctor now, but I believe he will be a dark horse with boundless potential in the future," Xu Jing argued loudly, clenching her fists.

It was her heartfelt belief; ever since she first saw Zhang Xiaoshan at Medical University, she had high hopes for him.

However, Hu Caixia dismissively said,

"Come off it, he’s just a village doctor; what great future can he have? Forget waiting; let’s go. My boyfriend will drive us there."

"No, let’s wait a bit longer. I’ll treat you to a hairstyle, and if he doesn’t show up after we’re done, we’ll leave." Xu Jing was still stalling for time.

Driven by the belief that not taking advantage of an opportunity was foolish, Hu Caixia followed Xu Jing into the nearby barbershop.

...

When Zhang Xiaoshan returned to the infirmary, Yu Xiuxiu had already changed the clothes of the aristocratic woman and was waiting in the infirmary.

"Where have you been sneaking off to?"

Yu Xiuxiu asked Zhang Xiaoshan somewhat displeasedly.

On the way back, Zhang Xiaoshan had already prepared his explanation, which he delivered earnestly.

"The county health bureau sent an urgent call, asking me to attend a training session."

"Training?" Yu Xiuxiu was skeptical.

"Is there such a rush for training?"

Yu Xiuxiu stared intently at Zhang Xiaoshan, and he became very nervous.
