Chapter 164: Chapter 164 Mysterious Hostility Chapter 164: Chapter 164 Mysterious Hostility Lu Yichen and Luo Qiao had been getting along for so ti, and he naturally knew what kind of temperant she had. It seed that Ding Xiangdong not only failed to help but also angered her. He hoped that Luo Qiao wouldn’t harbor any ill feelings towards him because of Ding Xiangdong.
Seeing that Luo Qiao didn’t want to talk, he didn’t feel it was right to question her further. However, he crossed Ding Xiangdong off his list ntally.
When they got back to the village, Luo Qiao made a trip to the team leader’s ho first, to let them know that the goods had been delivered to the factory, and that Big Brother Gao was doing well. He would co back to the village after three months when he had a holiday.
Not far from the team leader’s ho, she ran into Secretary’s daughter, Zhang Qiaoyan. Luo Qiao rembered this girl, as they had t once before on the road.
Seeing her with Zhang Degang’s youngest son, Zhang Donglin, Luo Qiao greeted them. Zhang Donglin was really quite likable.
What Luo Qiao didn’t know was that ever since Zhang Qiaoyan had heard about Luo Qiao’s top score in the city for this year’s middle school exams, she felt an inexplicable hostility towards her.
Before, she had been the only girl from Qingshan Village to attend high school, even Gao Baozhen from the team leader’s family had only finished middle school, so she had always felt like she was the brightest star in the village.
But now that Luo Qiao had co to the village, she was taller than her, prettier than her, and even outperford her academically. This made her very uncomfortable.
If Luo Qiao knew, she would definitely say, “That’s just crazy.”
Luo Qiao didn’t care what Zhang Qiaoyan thought; she had things to do at ho.
She was in a good mood today and thought that, as soone who now had a house, she wanted to eat sothing nice to celebrate.
Passing by Lu Yichen’s gate, she saw Stone standing in the yard and said, “Stone, co help your sister pick so vegetables from the backyard.”
Upon hearing this, Stone imdiately trailed after her to Luo Qiao’s yard, and Lu Yichen ca out of the house to see Stone being lured away.
After she got the rice steaming, Luo Qiao said hello to Stone and set off to Daqing Mountain with her basket on her back. There, under a tree, she spotted a few small mushrooms. However, they weren’t enough for a full dish, so she squatted down and tried to quicken their growth with her special ability.
Recently, her special ability had strengthened a bit, probably related to her use of it to promote the growth of vegetables in her backyard. It seed that she needed to practice and use her special ability more to improve it.
Looking into the depths of Daqing Mountain, she thought that she really needed to venture deeper into the mountain when she had the ti. If her special ability leveled up a few more tis, she might be able to heal Lu Yichen’s leg.
Seeing that it was getting late, she decided not to venture too far from ho. She quickly picked the mushrooms, put them in her basket, and then scooped up the remaining little mushrooms with the soil to store them in her space, at the foot of the mountain.
From her space, she found a fat rabbit, knocked it out, and took it ho. As she entered, she saw that Stone had already washed the vegetables, and Lu Yichen was getting ready to chop them.
Luo Qiao entered the yard and handed the rabbit to Lu Yichen. Stone’s eyes lit up when he saw the rabbit and said, “Sister, where did you catch the rabbit?”
Lu Yichen saw that the rabbit wasn’t dead, just unconscious, and looked at Luo Qiao.
Luo Qiao said, “I encountered it while picking mushrooms on the mountain, knocked it out, and brought it back.”
Lu Yichen thought to himself that her luck was too good; even when he set traps on the mountain, he wasn’t guaranteed to catch anything every ti. He’d occasionally get a rabbit or a wild chicken from the traps he dug.
Seeing him standing there, still dazed, Luo Qiao said, “Big Brother Lu, what are you dawdling for? Get to it, or we’ll be having supper under the stars.”
Lu Yichen said, “You start cutting the vegetables, and the rabbit will be ready in no ti.”
