Quick Transmigration: Underdog Turns out to be Untouchable-Chapter 1099 - 1009: Those Years 19

After a night of education from Lin Cheng’an, Lin Qianqian seemed a bit dispirited when she came to work today, and she didn’t continue to cause trouble for Qu Chengdong over the matter she was abandoned yesterday.

But Lin Qianqian also didn’t admit her mistake to Qu Chengdong voluntarily as her father Lin Cheng’an advised, nor did she say a single soft word.

If when she was first reborn, Lin Qianqian had a bit of cautious idea for interacting with Qu Chengdong, during the time they were dating, Lin Qianqian was spoiled by Qu Chengdong. She completely did not feel there was anything that required her to admit her mistake to Qu Chengdong this time.

In Lin Qianqian’s heart, not causing trouble for Qu Chengdong was already an initial concession; the rest should be Qu Chengdong taking the initiative to brush aside past issues and come to coax her and reconcile with her.

Unfortunately, Lin Qianqian was mistaken. Qu Chengdong is someone who rarely loses his temper, but when he’s angry, he’s not easily pacified.

So this time, Lin Qianqian truly made Qu Chengdong angry. He completely ignored Lin Qianqian’s intentions, let alone took the initiative to coax her as Lin Qianqian expected.

Even during work, Qu Chengdong was alone at a distance from Lin Qianqian, focusing diligently on his task without any intention of going near her.

Next to Qu Chengdong was Zhou Meijuan, beside Zhou Meijuan was Sheng Zongze, then Wen Shuangshuang. Wen Shuangshuang was sure that Sheng Zongze dragged her to work at this spot today just to watch the drama and hear the gossip.

Work for the morning finished, and at noon, everyone found a shady spot by the field to have lunch directly. Wen Shuangshuang’s lunch was made by her own hands, pork minced and mixed with wild vegetables and cornmeal, fried into golden cornbread.

With the taste of meat as a balance, Wen Shuangshuang added many seasonings inside. Although the cornbread looked ordinary, once you tasted it, it was exceptionally delicious.

Afraid of not having enough to eat, Wen Shuangshuang specially brought a few more pieces of cornbread. Since starting work, Wen Shuangshuang discovered her appetite was getting larger, comparable to a big eater.

Sheng Zongze, sitting together with her, casually took one of Wen Shuangshuang’s cornbread and then shared one of his eggs with her.

Sheng Zongze’s intention in taking Wen Shuangshuang’s cornbread was to give her an egg in return. He took the cornbread first because he feared that if he gave Wen Shuangshuang an egg directly, she wouldn’t accept it.

But after one bite of the cornbread, a fragrance quietly exploded in his mouth, and the taste was so delicious that Sheng Zongze couldn’t help but be mesmerized for a moment. This was too tasty, now it seemed he had taken advantage, as Wen Shuangshuang’s cornbread was far better than the plain egg.

Seeing Sheng Zongze eat the cornbread quickly and then look unsatisfied, Wen Shuangshuang directly shared four or five pieces with him.

Sheng Zongze felt a bit embarrassed. He, as a man, how could he just take a woman’s rations, especially since the cornbread had meat, which was not common? How could he just take Wen Shuangshuang’s meat because of a craving?

"You eat it yourself, I have my own food." Sheng Zongze said, attempting to return the cornbread to Wen Shuangshuang.

Wen Shuangshuang stopped him, opened the basket to show him the abundance of cornbread inside, "Eat up, no worries; I brought plenty, won’t go hungry."

Seeing Wen Shuangshuang indeed brought a lot, Sheng Zongze relaxed and happily continued eating. Wen Shuangshuang added quite a bit of meat into the cornbread, and coupled with her excellent cooking, the taste was more fragrant with every bite.

Not far from them, Qu Chengdong sat cross-legged on the ground, eating his own stuffed pastry. Qu Chengdong wasn’t lacking money or various tickets, never compromising on food.

Even at home, he often helped his parents cook. A man with good culinary skills, making savory stuffed pastries.

Lin Qianqian watched Qu Chengdong angrily from a distance, seeing him refuse to even look at her, raising a surge of anger within her. She turned her head abruptly, ignoring Lin Cheng’an’s signals, and directly ran away.

Lin Cheng’an rubbed his forehead in frustration, trying to prevent his daughter from continuing to act foolishly. He could only chase after her, planning to give her another lesson on thinking, and not actually lose a good son-in-law like Qu Chengdong.

After the father and daughter left one after the other, Zhou Meijuan, who had been working honestly beside Qu Chengdong, couldn’t help glancing in the direction they left.

Seeing the team leader and Lin Qianqian gone, not many people around, and since everyone was busy eating or chatting with familiar faces, no one was paying attention here.

Working constantly next to Qu Chengdong, Zhou Meijuan tidied her hair with her hand, then took out a small medicine bottle from her pocket and slowly approached Qu Chengdong.

Handing the medicine bottle to Qu Chengdong, Zhou Meijuan’s face was decorated with rosiness, looking particularly charming, "Brother Qu, this is medicine for external injuries, my mom gave it to me when I came here, so it’s handy to use if injured. It works really well, try it, Brother Qu."

Qu Chengdong frowned slightly. His thoughts were meticulous, and Zhou Meijuan’s intentions were clear. He immediately noticed Zhou Meijuan had feelings for him.

Qu Chengdong had no interest in the lazy and melodramatic Zhou Meijuan. Moreover, Zhou Meijuan’s actions were like those of a third party taking advantage when his relationship with Lin Qianqian hit a snag, deliberately trying to ingratiate herself.

Other men might enjoy the feeling of being pursued by women, but not Qu Chengdong, who wasn’t a shallow or vain man. He said coldly to Zhou Meijuan, "My injury doesn’t need your medicine. I’m sorry, thank you for your kindness. Also, Comrade Zhou, you are too close. I have a girlfriend, please remember to keep your distance."

Being rejected so bluntly without saving face, Zhou Meijuan’s face turned pale, then flushed with shame and anger. Unable to hold back, she turned, covered her face with her hands, and ran away crying.

Watching Zhou Meijuan run away in tears after being angered by Qu Chengdong’s insensitivity, Sheng Zongze leaned over to gossip with Wen Shuangshuang.

"Zhou Meijuan was reluctant to work, unwilling to suffer, and didn’t want her meals to be coarse. I thought her family must’ve really sent her a lot of money.

Actually, it wasn’t like that. Her family also didn’t have money. The little money she brought here was spent quickly, and she was unwilling to suffer. Every time a knowledgeable youth had something good to eat, she’d brazenly come along.

People were embarrassed to do anything about her, so they just try not to eat anything particularly special in front of her, forcing Zhou Meijuan to eat communal meals with everyone.

It seems Zhou Meijuan has her eyes on Qu Chengdong’s wealth. Qu Chengdong has been spending extravagantly these days, and Zhou Meijuan has been craving it, secretly speaking poorly of Lin Qianqian many times."
