She reclaimed her family property and broke off her engagement to go to the countryside.

Chapter 54 Powerful External Aid
"Hey~"

Ji Shuyin ignored Jiang Shi'an and went directly to the east wing of the Zhao family's house.

She had just seen a figure; it was Zhao Yuexiang.

If I'm not mistaken, this person's room is here; at the very least, we can catch her here.

The other party was also surprised that she would come and knock on the door.

I felt a little guilty. I had clearly gone out, but when I saw it was her, I came back.

There was no other meaning to it; I just didn't want to talk to Ji Shuyin.

And deep down, he harbored some hostility towards her.

"dong dong dong~"

The knocking continued, which annoyed her.

Then, thinking that this was her own home and there was nothing to be afraid of, she angrily went over and opened the door.

"What are you doing? Why are you banging on me?"

She wasn't angry at this person's temper; instead, she smiled warmly.

"Comrade Zhao Yuexiang, is there some misunderstanding between us?"

"There's no misunderstanding, I just simply don't like you."

If there's nothing else, then hurry up and leave. You're not welcome in my house.

As he spoke, he went to close the door.

It wasn't that easy. Ji Shuyin was prepared and had already subdued him from the outside.

"No, I came here today because I have something good to tell you."

Zhao Yuexiang looked at her with disdain, scrutinizing her from head to toe.

"What good things could you possibly have to offer? Don't try to fool me."

Seeing that there was hope, her smile brightened even more.

"You'll understand once you hear what I'm saying."

"It's about Gu Yuncheng, let me go in first."

Sure enough, Zhao Yuexiang's expression immediately changed.

"Gu Zhiqing, what's wrong with him?"

So concerned?

To say there's nothing fishy going on would be unbelievable, even to a ghost.

Are you sure you want me to say this at the door?

A reminder made her realize what was happening, and she reluctantly turned aside to let her in.

Then, he closed the door again.

This is indeed Zhao Yuexiang's room, furnished with a bed, wardrobe, and table.

There were also two pretty vases on the bedside table.

It's clean and cozy, and you can tell it's been pampered.

"Sit down. Now you can tell me, right?"

Ji Shuyin withdrew her gaze and sat down opposite her.

There's no need for pretense in this kind of thing; just get straight to the point.

"I know you like Gu Yuncheng."

When this topic was brought up again, Zhao Yuexiang's expression changed, and she slammed the water glass down on the table.

"So you've come here to declare sovereignty?"
I know Gu Zhiqing likes you, but you don't need to come to my door to warn me, do you?

You city folks are so cunning! They say they don't care, but it's all a lie.

"Hmph, liar!"

The man's eyes were somewhat red, and he looked aggrieved.

Ji Shuyin felt a little embarrassed; this was too much excitement.

"Look at you, I only asked one question, and look how many times you've retorted."

Now, you're feeling wronged?

The other person was also very proud and automatically interpreted her words as sarcasm.

"Okay, don't be angry."

I didn't come here to warn you; on the contrary, I'd like to help you two get together!

These words were so shocking that Zhao Yuexiang could hardly believe it.

"Really? You're willing to do that?"

This young girl, although she has a bit of a temper, is simple-minded and probably not the kind of person who is cunning.

“What’s there to be reluctant about? You know I came to the countryside to escape him.”

Who knew that this shameless person would chase after us again. "Although I was the one who signed them up, keeping them under my nose was my own request."

But right now, she absolutely cannot say that.

"Hmph, in the end, it's all just showing off!"

The other party was somewhat disdainful, feeling that she had brought it up on purpose to highlight Gu Yuncheng's special treatment of her.

Ji Shuyin could also see that this person had recently developed feelings for Gu the scumbag, so it was natural for her to favor him.

"You've really misunderstood. Although we were engaged, we had no feelings for each other."

At the time, it was a last resort.

Later, I saw things clearly and no longer wanted to get involved in his messy affair with Tang Weiyu.

I never expected that he would become interested in me again after coming to the countryside, which annoyed me greatly.

As she spoke, she observed the other person's expression.

Then, we got straight to the point.

“I don’t want to talk to her either, but you know, we all live in the educated youth dormitory.”

Even if you try to avoid each other, you'll still bump into each other while cooking.

So, I came here today hoping that the brigade leader could let me rent a house in the brigade and live alone.

This way, less contact can avoid a lot of trouble.

Yes, she was guiding him step by step.

Zhao Yuexiang clearly took it to heart. The educated youth dormitories all shared a kitchen for cooking, so it was perfectly normal for them to bump into each other while eating.

If Ji Shuyin really moves out, things might be much better!

"Do you really want to?"

Her tone was full of doubt.

"Otherwise, if it were just for show, would I have missed work time to come and talk to the team leader about this?"

Alas~"

The tone of her voice was so different before and after that that Zhao Yuexiang sensed something was wrong and was afraid she might change her mind.

"Then why are you sighing?"

Ji Shuyin rested her chin on her hand, looking helpless.

"I'm willing to pay the rent every month, I just don't want to face Gu Yuncheng all day long."

But the captain said there was no precedent for this.

"If I can't move out, he'll continue to harass me."

So that's how it is; the other party understands now.

"In that case, I can help you."

However, you must promise not to bother Gu Zhiqing anymore.

Good heavens, who's clinging to whom here?

However, now is not the time to take things too seriously.

Ji Shuyin stretched out three fingers, pointing them towards the heavens.

"I swear, as long as Gu Yuncheng doesn't provoke me, I will absolutely ignore him."

Moreover, I will absolutely not go back to an old flame.

Now you'll believe me, won't you?

Zhao Yuexiang's complexion improved significantly, and her attitude became much more polite.

At least it wasn't as tense as before.

"I barely passed. Let me ask you something else."

If she could help persuade the brigade leader to let her live alone, it would solve a lot of problems.

Asking about something is a piece of cake.

"What? Just tell me, I'll tell you everything I know."

This attitude satisfied Zhao Yuexiang.

However, he still hesitated a bit.

"Well, besides being engaged to you, Gu Zhiqing seems to treat Tang Weiyu quite differently as well."

Did those two date before?

Well, it seems this little girl really cares about Gu Yuncheng, she's inquired about him so thoroughly.

"To be honest, the relationship between these two is far from as innocent as it appears on the surface."

However, if you want to pursue him, I can give you some advice.
