Jiang Kechu was a bit puzzled by Wan Chuer’s sudden change of expression, thinking to himself that girls indeed have complicated minds. He bowed his head and picked up some noodles with his chopsticks. The noodles were chewy and the sauce flavorful, and he nodded in satisfaction.

Bai Zhixi saw that Jiang Kechu was satisfied, and she relaxed, smiling as she said, "I made this pickled cucumber myself, it’s pretty good. Mr. Jiang, give it a taste."

"No need to be so polite," Jiang Kechu said softly but obediently picked up a piece of the pickle and put it in his mouth. The sourness combined with the rich soy flavor made it a good side dish.

He didn’t hesitate to praise, "This pickled vegetable is indeed quite good."

Seeing Jiang Kechu eating her pickles, Wan Chuer should have been angry, but surprisingly she felt a tinge of happiness. She didn’t quite understand her complicated feelings, so she sped up eating and finished her meal quickly. She then put down her chopsticks and said to Bai Zhixi:

"Mom, I’m going to school now."

After saying this, she ignored Jiang Kechu, went back to her room to grab her backpack, and when passing the living room, she said as if driven by a ghostly impulse, "Goodbye, Uncle Jiang," and then walked out.

Upon hearing Wan Chuer call him "Uncle Jiang," Jiang Kechu couldn’t help but twitch his lips, and could only bow his head and take a big gulp of noodles.

Behind him came Bai Zhixi’s apologetic voice, "This child is a bit willful today, perhaps in a bad mood. Mr. Jiang, don’t mind, Chuer is not against you."

Wan Chuer sneered quickly, quickened her pace, and soon went downstairs.

After leaving the Glass Factory Family Quarters, her pace involuntarily slowed down again.

She felt off today. Over the years, other than Bai Zhixi, no one or nothing has made her emotions fluctuate so much. Yet upon seeing Jiang Kechu today, she ended up doing many silly things.

Did Jiang Kechu have such a big influence on her?

Wan Chuer immediately denied this thought, it wasn’t a good thing at all.

In this life, she was determined not to get entangled with Jiang Kechu again; this time she would live her own life well and let Jiang Kechu walk his own path.

Wan Chuer bitterly smiled. Actually, in her last life, it was she who had taken the initiative to cling to Jiang Kechu.

After Bai Zhixi passed away, Wan Chuer became very sharp and would see Jiang Kechu and scold him for being hypocritical. The person had already passed, so what’s the point of coming again, why not come when Bai Zhixi was still alive or when she was struggling, everyone was just adding fuel after the fire was extinguished.

Jiang Kechu, despite her scolding, didn’t get angry, he calmly asked if she needed any help.

At that time, Wan Chuer, not sure if she was out of her mind, actually said, "If you have guts, marry me, give me a fallback!"

It was meant to be angry words, but Jiang Kechu, after thinking for a long time, actually agreed.

Wan Chuer thought Jiang Kechu was cheating her and immediately asked him to go and get the marriage certificate with her.

Jiang Kechu explained that as a soldier, marriage required the approval and review of the military unit, Wan Chuer immediately cursed him as a liar. Helplessly, Jiang Kechu wrote a marriage report in front of her and sent it directly to the military unit. It wasn’t until the unit’s approval letter came, and they got their marriage certificate, that Jiang Kechu returned to the unit.

Speaking of which, their marriage was also somewhat due to Wan Chuer’s threats, which is something Wan Chuer later felt sorry for the Jiang family about.

Thinking of this, Wan Chuer felt a bit downcast, thinking to herself: Jiang Kechu, in this life, I will not entangle with you, I hope you can rise to greater heights sooner.

After a few steps, someone blocked Wan Chuer’s path again.

It was Zhuo Yao whom she hadn’t seen for many days.

Last time Wan Chuer embarrassed Zhuo Yao in public, making her furious, yet not daring to act rashly again.

During this time, she secretly inquired and learned that Wan Chuer was now studying very hard, and the teachers’ attitude towards her had also improved a lot.

This made Zhuo Yao a little panicked. She knew how smart Wan Chuer was, and if this went on, her grades would definitely be very good. freёnovelkiss.com

If one day she saw Wan Chuer doing better academically than her, going to a better university, Zhuo Yao felt she couldn’t accept it.

After thinking it over for several days, Zhuo Yao decided to approach Wan Chuer once more.

"Chuchu, are you going home for lunch now?" Zhuo Yao asked gently, carefully observing Wan Chuer’s expression, thinking she found a safe topic to start with.

Wan Chuer, still upset over Jiang Kechu’s sudden appearance, had no goodwill seeing Zhuo Yao’s always innocent face, she simply frowned and said:

"Get lost, I don’t have time to deal with you."

Jiang Kechu stopped in his tracks, standing around the corner, hearing this.

Zhuo Yao’s face remained unchanged, still portraying an image of purity and kindness, she asked aggrievedly, "Chuchu, what happened to you? Weren’t we good friends before? Have you forgotten the times we played together? We even shared a bed, skipped classes together, watched movies, went swimming..."

Wan Chuer had no patience to listen to Zhuo Yao reminiscing about the past and interrupted her directly, coldly saying, "I was blind to not see through your malicious heart before, stop pretending to be a fake innocent in front of me, it’s disgusting!"

Fake innocent? Jiang Kechu, standing around the corner, raised an eyebrow; this was a new term.

"Chuchu, what do you want me to do?" Zhuo Yao was unwilling to give up, her facade fragile yet hatred burned within.

Wan Chuer sneered, her eyes darting around, she said, "You know how Liu Li and her group bullied me before, go report it to the principal. You do it a second before, I’ll reconcile with you a second after. How about that?"

What? Report directly to the principal?

Zhuo Yao bit her lip, her eyes flickering. If she really did that, Liu Li and her group would surely make trouble for her if they found out.

Seeing Zhuo Yao’s hesitation, there was nothing more to say. Wan Chuer yelled, "Get lost, get far away from me!" And she waved her fist.

Frightened, Zhuo Yao stepped back, afraid of being slapped like last time. She hesitated for a few seconds, but seeing Wan Chuer getting more and more irritable, she quickly turned and ran away.

Watching Zhuo Yao’s retreating figure, Wan Chuer shouted angrily, "Each of you thinks I’m easy to bully, it’s never-ending. If there’s a next time, I’ll destroy you!"

Jiang Kechu, around the corner, swayed upon hearing Wan Chuer’s harsh words. Are girls today so fierce?

Calling herself a big boss and threatening to destroy people, does Bai Zhixi know she acts like this?

Jiang Kechu’s mind flashed an image of Wan Shiguo topping Wan Chuer’s photo, he thought for a moment, then stepped out, calling to the departing Wan Chuer.

"Wan Chuer, wait a moment."

Wan Chuer sighed, turned around, frowning at Jiang Kechu, saying, "Uncle Jiang, what do you want?"
