Reborn into the 70: Turning Adversity into Her Dazzling Path

Chapter 133: Chapter 133: We’re Not Familiar

In the following days, they waited for the notifications. Zhang Lanzhi originally wanted to use her position as the village women’s director to inquire about the situation, but was stopped by Gu Lingling.

She never intended to go.

The dance troupe was not for her, she wasn’t suited for it at all.

Besides, she knew the future developments and had her own plans for her future steps.

Once this movement ended, she would take the college entrance exam, and ever since her rebirth, she had been preparing for it.

Leaving the brigade office, she thought it had been days since she last saw that little girl Zhao Si’en and wondered how she was doing. She wondered if Wei Yan Yan was still bullying her.

The village chief had promised to find a way after the last incident, but it got delayed amidst other affairs.

Who would have known she hadn’t even reached the educated youth station when she ran into Tao Zhiran? Seeing Gu Lingling approaching, Tao Zhiran’s eyes lit up, and he asked with a smile, ”Lingling, are you also attending today’s dance troupe recruitment?”

”Yes.” Gu Lingling didn’t want any significant interactions with this educated youth, so she simply nodded indifferently.

Her distant attitude had been apparent since the first time she met Tao Zhiran.

”Lingling is so excellent, you’ll surely succeed.” Tao Zhiran said with a smile.

Only he knew how insincere these words were.

If Gu Lingling left, all his plans would fall through.

”Si’en, Si’en, are you there?” Gu Lingling ignored Tao Zhiran’s compliment and called into the educated youth station.

”Are you looking for Zhao Si’en? I just saw her heading to the village entrance, saying someone was waiting for her, probably a message from her family.” Gu Lingling’s attitude didn’t bother Tao Zhiran.

Instead, he felt a hint of excitement.

From childhood, he’d never encountered a girl like Gu Lingling who was so indifferent to him.

This gave Tao Zhiran a sense of challenge; the more unattainable she was, the more a maddening possessiveness developed within him.

”Did she go by herself?” Upon hearing this, Gu Lingling became anxious.

She couldn’t help but recall a dream she had before.

”What’s wrong?” Tao Zhiran took two steps forward, trying to grab Gu Lingling’s hand, but she cleverly avoided him.

”Nothing.” Gu Lingling looked at Tao Zhiran with cold eyes.

For a moment, Tao Zhiran felt as if his little schemes were completely seen through by this village girl he hardly regarded.

Then he shook his head, how could that be possible? What could a countryside girl understand?

Gu Lingling didn’t bother with him further and quickly left the station.

Who knew she would run into Zhang Lanzhi returning home just as she stepped out? Without a word, Gu Lingling pulled Zhang Lanzhi towards the village entrance.

Tao Zhiran chased after them, ”Lingling, what’s wrong?”

”Educated youth Tao, I’ll say it again, we’re not familiar, please address me by my full name.” Gu Lingling, anxious, didn’t have time to deal with him, and said directly with annoyance when he followed, ”And please stop following me.”

Zhang Lanzhi’s face turned sour instantly.

What’s this? Does this educated youth have designs on their Lingling?

She protectively shielded Gu Lingling behind her.

”If you’re fine, then I’m relieved.” Tao Zhiran said with an awkward smile and turned back.

Zhang Lanzhi wanted to scold him but was stopped by Gu Lingling.

Now, she just hoped that Zhao Si’en was okay.

However, when the two of them reached the village entrance, there was no trace of Zhao Si’en.

One could say there wasn’t a single person in sight at the village entrance.
