The Delicate Darling with Her Rough Man

”Are you stupid? Don’t you know that Xu Wenwan woman is a jinx? Don’t go near her again.”

After Leng Qingtian finished speaking, he ignored Sun Yeshu’s protests and dragged her away.

It wasn’t that Leng Qingtian was a coward; he just firmly believed the talk about Xu Wenwan being a jinx.

He had personally seen Xu Wenwan interact with Feng Ergou, and then Feng Ergou’s luck went south.

Later, he saw Eldest Chen trying to climb her wall, and what happened to him was even worse than Feng Ergou. The man ended up bedridden in his own home.

After personally witnessing two men suffer misfortunes, and with several other villagers showing the same symptoms as Eldest Chen, Leng Qingtian was certain they had all tried to climb Xu Wenwan’s wall.

So, he concluded there was a pattern: men who got close to Xu Wenwan had terrible luck, while women had it a bit better.

Still, it was best to avoid her altogether. That’s why he was so determined to pull Sun Yeshu away.

Sun Yeshu was speechless. She struggled a few times, but with her meager strength, she was no match for Leng Qingtian. In the end, she could only let herself be dragged away, resentful.

Seeing them avoid her like the plague, Xu Wenwan felt there was no need to give these people a chance. ’Sooner or later,’ she thought, ’they’ll realize what a huge opportunity they’ve missed.’

She took a deep breath and exhaled, but the stifling frustration in her heart wouldn’t dissipate. After standing in the doorway for a while to let the cold wind blow on her, she finally turned to pack her things.

Xu Wenwan didn’t have many belongings, so it only took a moment to finish packing. But she couldn’t leave yet.

She had to wait for Gu Jiaojiao to come back.

Gu Jiaojiao, however, had no idea she was being targeted.

The new teacher had taken another day off, and the principal’s frown deepened. Now, everyone in the office was gossiping about this new teacher who had gotten the job through connections.

No one knew what their background was to be so powerful. School had started ten days ago, and they hadn’t even shown their face once. If they didn’t have some serious backing, they would have been fired long ago.

Gu Jiaojiao wasn’t interested in the new teacher. She focused on her own work, and when her shift ended, she headed home with her husband.

Today, she was heading home as usual when, unexpectedly, she was intercepted by Xu Wenwan on the way.

Well, not exactly intercepted. Rather, Xu Wenwan had somehow fallen right in front of her.

Gu Jiaojiao glanced around, wondering where on earth Xu Wenwan had popped out from.

On the ground, Xu Wenwan waited a few seconds. Seeing that neither Gu Jiaojiao nor Leng Yuan moved, she couldn’t help but speak up. ”Eldest Brother Leng, Jiaojiao, I just accidentally twisted my ankle. It hurts so much I can’t get up. Could you help me?”

Gu Jiaojiao was more level-headed. ”You fell on your foot? Does it hurt really badly? You can’t move at all?”

Xu Wenwan nodded hurriedly.

Gu Jiaojiao’s expression immediately turned worried. ”Then could your leg be broken? If it’s broken, you shouldn’t move, or the bone might get displaced. How about this, honey, you go back and get a wooden cart, and we’ll push her home.”

Xu Wenwan wasn’t injured at all. She was just using the fall as an excuse to get Leng Yuan to help her up.

That way, she could absorb Leng Yuan’s good fortune.

Then, she could marry into a wealthy family, complete her mission, and never have to return to this tiny, run-down village again.

But Gu Jiaojiao didn’t play by the rules.

And Leng Yuan was actually going to get the cart.

Xu Wenwan quickly spoke up, ”Jiaojiao, I just sprained my ankle, it’s not that serious. Just have Eldest Brother Leng help me up.”

A smirk played on Gu Jiaojiao’s lips. ”Oh, so just helping you up is enough! I’ll help you, then.”

As for Leng Yuan, he hadn’t even slowed his pace.

Xu Wenwan could only watch as the man walked further and further away.

’Wait, hey! Didn’t I just say all he needed to do was help me up? Why is he still walking so fast?’
