1970s: Hot wife accompanies the army, cold-faced rough man is not easy to tease

Chapter 246 Seeing Gu Shuchen Again

Lu Youyou didn't encounter Du Yuelan on the second day, nor on the following two days. Naturally, she wouldn't pay much attention to a random person, but the other person might.

"What did you say? She got married? And she majored in something like oceanography again?"

“Marine engineering,” Sun Jinhai said irritably. “There were rumors a while ago that she committed academic fraud, then they said it was false. Who knows…”

He clearly lost focus towards the end.

Sun Jinhai was not told about the behind-the-scenes operations of the Du and Sun families. To this day, he only knows that Lu Youyou is married and her background is unknown.

But she was still a woman he found hard to let go of.

This wasn't the first time Sun Jinhai had fallen in love; he'd dated several women before, but none of them had stirred his heartstrings like Lu Youyou.

Even after she repeatedly refused him and ruthlessly had him locked up for two days, he still couldn't forget her.

Du Yuelan, like a cat smelling fish, demanded, "What forgery? Explain in detail!! And did the person behind her smooth things over? And that's how it all ended?"

Sun Jinhai was pulled so hard that he slammed against the sofa armrest. He clicked his tongue and broke free from her grasp, unable to understand how such a frail woman could be so strong.

"How would I know? Anyway, the school and Xiaowen Education Center have both issued announcements saying that someone made a false accusation, and the person who made the false accusation hasn't been to the school for a long time now."

Upon hearing the familiar workplace, Du Yuelan paused for a moment, preparing to ask Du Guanghan in detail when he returned. She was more concerned about the latter question.

"And what else? How was it resolved?"

"That's how it is. Xiaowenyu sent an investigation team, but they didn't find anything. However, I heard that her research does have some merit."

Du Yuelan scoffed. Lu Youyou was about the same age as her, what remarkable achievements could she possibly have!
Du Yuelan, who solved life-or-death problems quietly and produced so-called scientific research results in her sophomore year, and who took back-door deals for granted, thought that Lu Youyou was the same kind of person.

She became increasingly convinced that this woman was 100% suspicious.

What husband? Maybe it's just a smokescreen. The big boss is arranging a public relationship for his girlfriend, which is convenient for him in a way, isn't it?
Du Yuelan excitedly shared her guess. Sun Jinhai was taken aback at first, then looked at her as if she were crazy: "I've met her husband; he's a soldier."

To everyone's surprise, Du Yuelan scoffed, "Isn't that even better? It's more convenient to follow orders."

Even though Sun Jinhai didn't consider himself a saint, he was still speechless at Du Yuelan's remarks.

Du Yuelan glared at him with disgust: "Shut up, you'll be able to see your stomach when you get any bigger!"

For some reason, Sun Jinhai did not want to admit her deduction.

It's true that he's a poor student, but he still spent half a year at Tsinghua University for four years. If Lu Youyou didn't have real talent, Tsinghua University wouldn't be so supportive of her.

This cannot be explained simply by having a powerful background.

People with connections, like him, can graduate even if they skip classes and exams, but no one will entrust them with important projects. At most, they'll be relegated to a minor role like Du Yuelan.

That seawater desalination project is said to have been upgraded to a national-level project, and the approval is about to be issued. Even the daughter of some bigwig wouldn't handle things this way, let alone the wife of some powerful figure.

The key is that there aren't many people in Lu Youyou's group yet. If they mess things up, it won't just be about becoming famous; it will definitely be about making a fool of themselves.

Looking at Du Yuelan, who seemed to be plotting something, he still offered a word of advice out of consideration for their kinship: "What are you planning to do? I advise you not to act impulsively."

Du Yuelan glared at him and said, "What? A new person joined the project team, and I can't even ask them a question?"

"Fine, fine, you're the young lady, you can do whatever you want!" After saying that, Sun Jinhai lay back down on the sofa, looking exactly the same as before, half-dead.

Du Yuelan was too lazy to pay attention anymore. She picked up her bag, swayed her hips, and left, her leather shoes clattering on the floor. Annoyed, Sun Jinhai pulled a cushion over his head.

This cousin is young, but she's got a wild heart.

In fact, Du Yuelan could have gotten the gist of what she wanted to know from Lu Yanping, but in her mind, Lu Yanping was just a housewife. Du Guanghan never talked about work, so she naturally assumed that her own mother knew nothing.

She didn't know that Du Guanghan was on a business trip at this time purely to avoid Gu Bohuai. After waiting for two days without seeing him, she could only continue to go to the Agricultural University to report for duty.

A few days later, when they met again, Du Yuelan looked at Lu Youyou with an even stranger gaze, tinged with inexplicable contempt.

According to her "analysis", Lu Youyou is also a person who acts recklessly and uses connections. At least she is related to her father, her uncle and two uncles by blood. What is Lu Youyou?
Du Yuelan felt that her judgment was correct, and when she met Lu Youyou again, she couldn't suppress the feeling of superiority she had.

Unfortunately, it's all in vain; Lu Youyou was busy getting familiar with the project and had no time to pay attention to her.

That evening, Lu Youyou left late, and the sunset was already hanging in the sky when she left.

The campus of the agricultural university is not large. Lu Youyou soon reached the main gate, but a casual glance made her pause.

Even though the streetlights across the street were dim, she could still see a pair of intimate figures under the tree.

Although we weren't hugging or kissing in the street, we were shoulder to shoulder, sleeves touching sleeves, I'd pat you, and you'd pinch my cheek...

She recognized the woman; it was Du Yuelan, but the one beside her…

When Lu Youyou saw Gu Shuchen again after three years, she was momentarily stunned and didn't react.

The memories of Qiaoshan Village had long been buried in the dust, and that face had long since disappeared from her life. To meet her again here and now was indeed somewhat unexpected.

Gu Shuchen in the book did indeed pass the university entrance exam, and unexpectedly, it was in the capital city.

Is he also an agricultural student?
Is the rich and beautiful woman he hooked up with in the book Du Yuelan?

Long-forgotten memories unconsciously resurfaced, and Lu Youyou found it hard not to recall the "she" who had been abandoned by Gu Shuchen and died in despair.

She wouldn't project herself onto the character, but the fact that "Lu Youyou's" parents looked like Lu Zhiyu and Lin Nanxing made her clench her fists.

Lu Youyou paused for a moment before turning and leaving. She still needed to tell Gu Qingye about Gu Shuchen's arrival in the capital.

*
Under the dim light, Du Yuelan and Gu Shuchen were still deeply in love.

"Shall we go out for roast duck tonight?" Du Yuelan looked at his handsome appearance and felt her appetite whetted.

Gu Shuchen's heart tightened.

He had to be careful with the money he had, but Du Yuelan was a pampered girl who didn't know anything about money. He couldn't let go of the prey he had finally set his sights on just because he didn't have the money.

"It's so late, it's not good for girls to eat such greasy food. Why don't you have a bowl of wontons over there? They're refreshing and easy to digest."

Du Yuelan pouted and hummed a few times before agreeing. After all, she had fallen for his looks.

Wontons it is, it's okay to eat them once in a while.
