Liang Qingyu's sudden decision stunned everyone around her. She didn't give them time to think and walked straight out.

She didn't want to be in the same space with Xie Licheng at all now.

However, she had just taken two steps when the man grabbed her arm.

Xie Licheng frowned, "What do you mean?"

Liang Qingyu stared at him with her almond-shaped eyes, "I don't want to play with you."

Xie Licheng's eyes darkened, but he didn't expect to be pushed away by Zhan Tingxia who had reacted, and he bumped into the door panel without any preparation.

Liang Qingyu was startled. Zhan Tingxia had already snatched the box from her with a serious expression.

"Ms. Liang, how can you give up so easily? I understand that you are serious about this job, and I also sincerely want to cooperate with you. As for what this scumbag said, don't take it to heart."

Zhan Tingxia held her hand and said, "I sincerely hope that you can stay in the village for a few more days. There will be all kinds of celebrations in the village in the future. I hope to invite you to participate. It can also help you further understand the customs of the village, which will also be beneficial to the progress of subsequent work."

Faced with her enthusiasm, it was hard for Liang Qingyu not to be moved.

Especially these words of persuasion hit Liang Qingyu's soft spot.

At the same time, Yi Chen, who had been waiting in the restaurant, finally realized something was wrong and walked over here, just in time to hear what Zhan Tingxia said.

He was a little surprised that the latter suddenly changed his decision, but when he saw the look in Xie Licheng's eyes when he looked at Liang Qingyu, he felt a little displeased.

He walked up to Liang Qingyu and asked worriedly , " Qingyu, are you okay?"

Seeing Yi Chen, Liang Qingyu's expression eased a lot and shook her head , " Senior, I'm fine."

After a brief consideration, she said to Zhan Tingxia , " Thank you, Miss Zhan, I will listen to you."

After calming down a little, she realized that she had indeed acted on impulse. The project was linked to the company's performance. Liang needed such an opportunity now. She couldn't give it up just because she cared about Xie Licheng.

At worst, I can just pretend he doesn't exist.

"That's great." Zhan Tingxia smiled, "Also, don't keep calling me Miss Zhan. It's strange. Just call me Tingxia. I'll call you Qingyu from now on, okay?"

"kindness."

The house was finally changed, and some people were happy while others were sad.

The next day, under the arrangement of Zhan Tingxia, everyone went to the river for a picnic.

The scenery of Xinghua Village is very beautiful. The water in the stream is crystal clear, and there are many fish playing in it. The surrounding grass is also very fresh and beautiful. Liang Qingyu likes it just by looking at it.

“It’s so beautiful here, and the air is so fresh, it makes people feel very comfortable.”

Hearing her sigh, Yi Chen smiled and said , " Then you can come here often in the future."

Liang Qingyu smiled and nodded. Just as she was about to agree, she heard a cold snort.

She turned her head and saw Xie Licheng a few steps away, with his arms folded and looking at them coldly. When he saw her looking over, the emotion in his eyes deepened a little.

Liang Qingyu didn't say anything and withdrew her gaze. She said she wanted to treat someone as air.

Xie Licheng's face darkened. Didn't he even want to talk to him?

Zhan Tingxia had already ordered people to put things down and then asked the villagers to leave.

She walked up to Liang Qingyu and said , " Let's divide the work. For things like setting up the grill, you boys will do it. We girls will wash the vegetables by the river. What do you think?"

Liang Qingyu and Yi Chen had no objection.

Shen Ruqiu was a little reluctant. She glanced at Xie Licheng and saw that the latter didn't speak. She couldn't help but said , " These dishes don't take three people. How about I stay here with brother Li Cheng."

"Need not."

The two brief words didn't give her any face. Xie Licheng had already walked to the grill and started to deal with it.

Shen Ruqiu's face looked a little ugly.

Zhan Tingxia suppressed a smile and immediately took Liang Qingyu's hand, "We'll go to the river first, you can do whatever you want."

She didn't think about letting Shen Ruqiu go with them at first. Some previous conversations made her have a bad impression of the latter.

Liang Qingyu wouldn't take it to heart.

But when the two brought the dishes to the river, Shen Ruqiu followed them.

The two of them looked at her together, and the latter said impatiently , " Look what I'm doing, isn't it the girl you said came to wash the vegetables?"

Liang Qingyu and Zhan Tingxia looked at each other and could see the speechlessness in their eyes.

Zhan Tingxia curled his lips and said, "It's whatever you say. Let's wash the vegetables quickly. We'll bake them early and eat them early."

Liang Qingyu nodded.

The two immediately squatted down and started washing vegetables in the clear stream water.

Shen Ruqiu looked at the two of them, feeling increasingly uncomfortable.

She stood there for a while, and suddenly seemed to think of something. She stared straight at Liang Qingyu who had her back to her. After a while, she looked towards the stream beside her.

The stream in the village is not very shallow. The water is quite deep, and most importantly, there is mud and sand deposited at the bottom.

Thinking of this, the woman's lips curled up slightly, and then she moved closer to Liang Qingyu unnoticeably.

Liang Qingyu was chatting with Zhan Tingxia while washing vegetables when she suddenly caught a glimpse of her shadow approaching in the water and her eyes narrowed slightly.

She didn't say anything, but just moved slightly to the side when the shadow was about to attack her.

"ah! - "

"thump!"

Screams and the sound of someone falling into the water were heard one after another. Liang Qingyu watched the scene coldly and pushed the washed vegetables behind her without leaving any trace.

The movement here also attracted the attention of two men, and they hurried over.

"What's wrong?"

Both of their eyes fell on Liang Qingyu first, and they were slightly relieved to see that she was fine.

At the same time, Shen Ruqiu, who was splashing in the stream, heard Xie Licheng's voice and cried , " Brother Li Cheng, help me, my legs hurt so much, I can't move, wuwuwu ... "

The woman's cry fell on Xie Licheng's ears, making him inexplicably irritable.

He couldn't help but glance at Liang Qingyu and saw that she had no reaction and was just focusing on protecting the washed vegetables.

The people in the water were still shouting, so he strode in and took out the people inside.

Shen Ruqiu held his neck tightly, her voice aggrieved.

"Brother Li Cheng, my legs hurt so much."

He took a look at her exposed calf and found that there was a cut. It must have been accidentally scratched by a sharp stone while struggling in the water.

"Don't move, let me check the wound."

Hearing that she was really hurt, Shen Ruqiu shuddered and looked down.

The bloody redness in her calf made her feel painful and angry. She immediately stared at Liang Qingyu who was not far away. It must be her.

Thinking of this, she kept sobbing and said with a choked voice , " Sister Qingyu, why did you push me just now?"

This sudden blame-shifting caught Liang Qingyu off guard, and she immediately frowned.

"What did you say?"

Shen Ruqiu was still crying, "I know you don't like me, but I just want to ask you something. Why are you pushing me?"
