Chapter 39 One day, he will make sure she dies!

"Dad, don't worry, I swear on my life and faith that I will treat Ningning well."

"When I have time later, I will definitely bring Ningning back to see you all," Sheng Zexi solemnly promised.

"well."

Looking at her family members whose eyes were red, Gu Jianing's own eyes welled up with tears. "Father, Mother, Brother, Sister-in-law, I will be alright, I definitely will."

She will definitely try her best to live a good life in this lifetime.

She will absolutely not let down the chance that God gave her to be reborn.

Surrounded by onlookers, Gu Jianing was led into the jeep by Sheng Zexi.

There was a small hiccup in the middle.

When the firecrackers were set off, Gu Jianing was startled and instinctively hid behind Sheng Zexi.

Sheng Zexi quickly shielded her, asking, "What's wrong? Are you afraid of firecrackers?"

Gu Jianing hummed in agreement. Actually, she wasn't afraid of firecrackers, but rather of the light of fire.

Gu Jianing only felt better after getting into the car.

Sheng Zexi withdrew his gaze from her and got into the driver's seat, but his eyes were filled with doubt. He had seen Ningning's subconscious avoidance when the firecrackers were set off, as well as the fear and apprehension in her eyes.

Was Ningning injured by firecrackers before?
But he remembered that when he lived in the Sheng family's house before, Ningning was not afraid of firecrackers.

Sheng Zexi temporarily suppressed his doubts and started the car.

The process is as follows: the jeep drives around Huaihua Village, then returns to the Gu family home, where the oath is taken and a banquet is held.

Gu Jianing's room had long been decorated as a wedding room, and Sheng Zexi and Gu Jianing were staying there tonight.

Sang's maternal grandparents are also staying at the Gu family's house tonight.

Tomorrow, the two elderly people will return to Beijing, while Sheng Zexi will take Gu Jianing with him to the Northwest.

The jeep slowly started moving, and many people, especially children, chased after it, creating a lively scene.

The jeep drove past the former educated youth compound.

Those educated youth who had not been invited all came out to watch.

"Gu Jianing is really lucky to have married a military officer from Beijing."

"I heard that Officer Sheng's parents didn't come this time. I wonder what's going on. Maybe they don't agree at all," Zhao Weihong said sourly.

Others also thought it made sense; who would want their son, a military officer from a big city, to marry a country girl?

So what if this country girl is beautiful?

No matter how beautiful she is, it can't change her household registration.

"Who says marrying into a big city is all it takes? Besides, being a military wife isn't easy either. What if something happens to you...?"

The rest was left unsaid, but everyone understood.

Anyway, they were already jealous of Gu Jianing, so how could they possibly say anything good about Gu Jianing and Sheng Zexi? But they didn't dare say anything else, for fear that if it got out, the Gu family would hold a grudge.

If Gu Jianing heard their sour remarks at this moment, she would definitely say, "These people are just sour grapes."

If they had that opportunity, they would probably all want to take advantage of it.

I don't know if it's true that speaking ill of someone always brings retribution, but sure enough, the jeep suddenly made a sharp turn, kicking up a cloud of dust.

Those educated youth who spoke sourly had dust poured directly into their mouths.

"Damn, how can someone drive like that?"

"Cough cough, my mouth is full of sand."

Not only were their mouths full of sand, but their hair was also covered in dust, making them all look disheveled.

After they finished dusting off the jeep and were about to say something, only the rear of the vehicle remained.

The children following behind the jeep hadn't left yet. Some of them had overheard their sarcastic remarks and were now making faces at them, saying, "Talking badly, eating sand, bad people, bad people."

"You little bastards!"

"Run!"

After the children finished speaking, they scattered and continued chasing the jeep.

"You did that on purpose, didn't you?" Gu Jianing asked Sheng Zexi in the car. Sheng Zexi, with his hands on the steering wheel, nodded directly in admission, "Of course it was on purpose."

"They thought I couldn't hear them, ha."

"With that mouth full of filth, giving them sand to eat is too lenient."

Gu Jianing was both amused and exasperated, but still gave a thumbs up, "Well done."

Men who stand up for you deserve praise.

This will motivate the man to continue his efforts and perform even better.

Moreover, she also heard what those people said.

Gu Jianing was also somewhat angry. She was also petty and didn't think "being petty" was a derogatory term.

If someone belittles or insults you, you should retaliate.

They're still so petty.

Otherwise, these people will only push their luck!

Based on this alone, Gu Jianing felt that she and Sheng Zexi were quite a good match.

Soon, the jeep also passed by the Bao family's house.

Wen Zhuqing, who happened to be fetching water and washing clothes in the courtyard, saw it. Next to him was Bao Shanyan, who was sitting and eating melon seeds.

Bao Shanyan watched the jeep flash by, a hint of envy crossing her eyes.

She also wanted to ride in a jeep like that.

Bao Shanyan knew that Gu Jianing and her officer husband must be in that car.

Gu Jianing is really lucky. She's from the same countryside as Gu Jianing, yet she managed to find a military officer from Beijing.

Those men, they all judge by appearance too.

Compared to her own robust physique and rough face, Bao Shanyan envied Gu Jianing's slender figure and delicate, beautiful face.

His jealousy sometimes bordered on violent, and he wanted nothing more than to ruin Gu Jianing's beautiful face.

But Bao Shanyan managed to restrain herself.

She knew that Gu Jianing had the Gu family behind her, a force she couldn't afford to offend. Especially now that Gu Jianing had married a military officer, and after orchestrating the incident with Wen Zhuqing, leaving Wen Zhuqing with no evidence and suffering a silent loss, Bao Shanyan knew that Gu Jianing was someone who seemed simple but was actually very cunning.

It's best to avoid dealing with people like that.

As she was thinking, Bao Shanyan suddenly realized that there was no movement beside her.

Turning her head, she noticed that Wen Zhuqing, who had been washing clothes, had stopped what she was doing and was staring intently in the direction the jeep had gone.

From Bao Shanyan's perspective, she couldn't see the expression on Wen Zhuqing's face or the emotions in her eyes.

But when Bao Shanyan thought about the previous connection between Wen Zhuqing and Gu Jianing, her face darkened.

He stood up abruptly and kicked Wen Zhuqing.

Caught off guard, Wen Zhuqing was kicked and fell directly into the basin of water.

The basin full of water was overturned, and the icy water soaked his pants, making him feel a chill to the bone.

"What are you looking at? What's so interesting?"

"What, are you still thinking about Gu Jianing?"

Wen Zhuqing gritted his teeth and clenched his fists, wishing he could kill Bao Shanyan, but the pain from the occasional blows Bao Shanyan had given him over the past few days still lingered, making Wen Zhuqing afraid to resist.

She could only suppress her anger, raise her head, and say gently, "Yanzi, nothing of the sort happened. I just heard a car and instinctively looked up. I have nothing to do with Comrade Gu Jianing."

"Hmph, good to know. She married a military officer from Beijing, she wouldn't be interested in you. You'd better just live a normal life with me and don't have any ulterior motives, or else..." Bao Shanyan narrowed her eyes, threatened Wen Zhuqing, and then turned and went into the house.

Wen Zhuqing watched Bao Shanyan's retreating figure as she entered the house. If Bao Shanyan were to turn around at this moment, she would see that Wen Zhuqing's expression had already changed, and the gentleness from before was gone, replaced by gloom and ruthlessness.

In the past few days, he has come to realize that Bao Shanyan is a person with a very bad temper and likes to fight. Wen Zhuqing feels that if things continue like this, he might even be beaten to death by Bao Shanyan.

No, he had to find a way to get rid of and escape.

And then there's Bao Shanyan! One day, he'll make sure she's dead!
