A soft, fat educated young woman is pampered by a rough man.

021 Timidity prevails

He Jingchen bent down, put the towel on his arm into the basin, soaked it, wrung it out, and then placed it on Zhao Qingtang's swollen ankle.

The water in the tub was warm, and belatedly, Zhao Qingtang felt the warmth from the towel, and He Jingchen suddenly flashed in her mind telling her not to leave.

It turned out to be the case.

"Before you do something good next time, consider your own situation, you know?"

Seeing Zhao Qingtang staring at him, He Jingchen felt somewhat unnatural.

"I know." Zhao Qingtang pursed his lips and replied, "Brother Chen."

Brother Chen.Brother Chen.Brother Chen.

Who wouldn't be crazy if a girl he likes always calls him that?

He Jingchen stood up in a panic and accidentally bumped into the wooden basin. Water stains spilled onto the ground. He said in a panic: "I'll deal with it."

Zhao Qingtang nodded like a chicken pecking at rice.

When He Jingchen caught sight of this scene with his peripheral vision, his handsome face turned faintly red.

So cute.

His hand holding the tub couldn't help but tremble.

The moonlight outside the window is just right.

Sun Hui, who has been imprisoned for more than ten days, is holding on to the iron fence. If you look carefully, it is not difficult to see that there are slight red and swollen marks on her forehead.

These days, it seems like a big dream.

Ever since Sun Hui hit the wall, a lot of news came to her mind.

At first, Sun Hui thought she was suffering from schizophrenia due to despair, but later she discovered that this was not the case.

It turns out that in her previous life, Sun Hui's reputation was ruined because of Zhao Qingtang, and she had no choice but to end her young life by jumping into a river.

Although she didn't know what the situation was now, a voice called the system told her that the plot chain had been unlocked in advance. As long as she obeyed the plot arrangements, she could change her bleak fate.

Sun Hui readily accepted the system's opinion, but now she was trapped in a prison. Even if she was released in a few days, what else could she do with her stain?

[Host, don’t be discouraged. 】

The voice of the system rang in his mind, instructing Sun Hui.

[Since you have been judged as a vicious female supporting character and want to change your destiny, the first step to be kind is to change your attributes. 】

Sun Hui didn't understand the system's remarks, so she responded with the word "oh" nonchalantly.

【Host.Can't you be more positive?If you insist on daring to compete with the hero and heroine in the book for luck as before, wouldn't you wait to do it in advance? 】

Sun Hui didn't take the system's words seriously at all, and she was still unconvinced why someone like Zhao Qingtang could be the heroine in a book, but why should she lose to her if she was pretty?
[Even if the setting is like this.What's the use of being unconvinced? 】

Sun Hui didn't even speak, and the system read its thoughts.

[Don’t be surprised, this system is so good.If you listen to me, surviving a few more chapters won't be a problem. 】

Sun Hui learned from the system that if she persisted in going her own way, she would most likely be sent home directly.

She was more afraid of going back than being made difficult by Zhao Qingtang.

"So what do I do to get out of this?"

Sun Hui thought she must be crazy to believe what this invisible system said. [For now, just don’t always fight against the heroine. 】

Sun Hui herself had a deep resentment towards Zhao Qingtang, and now she couldn't even retaliate. She clenched her fists and let the iron bars of the iron fence turn red in her hands.

[I know you are dissatisfied, but if you are not afraid of death, you will not listen to me. It would be bad luck to be bound to you anyway. 】

Everything the system said made fun of Sun Hui.

Just like the books she had read in the past, the supporting characters in the book were all born directly for service.

According to the instructions of the system, Sun Hui only needs to wait for the day when she can go out, be willing to apologize to Zhao Qingtang with so-called sincerity, and be a transparent and invisible person in front of her, so that they can live in peace in the future.

Sun Hui did not respond to the system, and even because the system could read her thoughts, she did not worry too much in her mind.

The moonlight outside the window was bright, but where it couldn't be seen, half of Sun Hui's face was shrouded in shadow.

A sneeze.

Zhao Qingtang's nose was itchy. As soon as she rubbed it with her hands, she was wrapped in a coat.

The word "wrapped" is not very appropriate. After all, the original owner's current body cannot be wrapped even by adult clothes.

Zhao Qingtang could only awkwardly hold on to the clothes He Jingchen handed over, and she didn't know whether to return it directly to He Jingchen with her hands nowhere to rest.

He Jingchen probably noticed Zhao Qingtang's embarrassment. He cleared his throat: "Even if it can't completely protect you from the cold, at least it can block some of it."

Zhao Qingtang looked at He Jingchen's sincere eyes and smiled happily.

Outside the ward, because this era was about reputation, the two sat on opposite sides of the bench, with a long gap between them.

Zhao Qingtang was the first to break the silence: "Brother Liu, are you okay?"

"Although Lao Liu hurt his head, it didn't hit the vital point. Plus you sent him here in time, so it's nothing serious. The doctor said that after he wakes up, he will see if there is no concussion, and he can be discharged from the hospital in two or three days. .”

"That's good."

Zhao Qingtang will not use the space unless it is absolutely necessary.

Of course, He Jingchen didn't know that Zhao Qingtang had room. His heart was tied to Zhao Qingtang, and there were even several times when he wanted to blurt out that he and she were from the same world.

But fear took over and prevented him from telling Zhao Qingtang.

The dark night is indeed suitable for hiding many secrets. He Jingchen cleared his throat and changed the topic: "The accident that happened this time is not the fault of the educated youth. On the contrary, if it weren't for you, maybe Dezi would go to the village after stealing things from the educated youth. Lieutenant, now it’s up to you to solve the problem fundamentally, which is always a good thing.”

"It's just a pity that I couldn't buy what the commune needs."

After Zhao Qingtang got acquainted with He Jingchen, she gradually opened up the conversation. In addition to expressing concern about Lao Liu, she was more afraid that their brigade would not complete the tasks assigned by their superiors, which would lead to He Jingchen being blamed.

"This is not what we wanted to do on purpose. After a few days, when Lao Liu is well, we can go to the county town to buy more."

In fact, this time the brigade is going to the city to buy supplies, there is another important thing, that is, it is the first time for the educated youth to celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival in the countryside. As such a festival, those educated youth who have left their hometowns feel homesick.

So when He Jingchen said that everyone in Happy Village would gather together to celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival this year, no one had any objection.

"Zhao Zhiqing. It's late at night, you should go back and get some rest early!"

Even though He Jingchen wanted to send Zhao Qingtang back at this moment, due to his current status, he had to stop as a courtesy.

"Oh, by the way." He Jingchen watched Zhao Qingtang move slowly, and he said again: "In view of your ankle injury, you should not go to work in the past few days."
