Chapter 137: The Misunderstood Mu Jingzhe

Mu Jingzhe ate with full concentration and relish. The only imperfection was that Li Hua was sitting beside her, constantly trying to strike up a conversation and adding meat to her plate.

Although he was scooping out good meat, Mu Jingzhe still wanted to eat it herself. She felt extremely awkward around Li Hua.

She had never encountered someone who kept chasing after her like this before. It should be said that it was rare to see someone like this in the modern era. Everyone basically fell in and out of love quickly.

When she was in school, she had heard of some guys who had wooed a girl for three to four years, or even five to six years. Later on, she’d no longer heard such stories. Those men only existed in television dramas. If one wooed a girl relentlessly, the girl would even get annoyed.

However, the pace was too fast for Mu Jingzhe to keep up. Occasionally, someone would express interest in her. She wanted to observe and see if the person was suitable, but in the end, the other party quickly gave up because she didn’t show much of a reaction. They weren’t like Li Hua.

It was only because Mu Jingzhe had trained herself to be thick-skinned that she could continue eating under Li Hua’s intent gaze from time to time.

Delicacies couldn’t be ignored. In the end, Mu Jingzhe relied on her strong mental fortitude to finish eating her fill.

After dinner, everyone cleared up together. Soon, they were done.

Mu Jingzhe looked at the time and saw that Li Hua seemed to be coming over to look for her again, so she quickly bade the teachers farewell.

As the kids had excellent results, the teachers mostly spoke to her about the matter of them skipping grades. Nothing else.

Mu Jingzhe exited the school and returned home, only to see that the kids had not returned. She thought for a while and carried the bag of corn given to her by Li Zhaodi to the mill by the river.

This mill was actually a wet-milling one. Great Eastern Village was beside a river, and two mills had been built along the terrain.

The flour made via wet milling could be preserved for a long time and tasted good. Everyone in the village ate it. Both wheat flour and corn flour were made in this mill. The mantous[1], buns, and cornbread that were made using such flour were all very delicious.

Out of the two mills, one was an old mill, and the other had been built not long ago. The new one was made of cement, had electricity, and was more automated.

The electricity was generated by the hydropower in front of the mill. There wasn’t much electricity, so it wasn’t enough for the entire village to use. At present, it was only used in the school’s village council and the mill. It was said that after a period of time, those who wanted to get electricity at home would be able to get electricity too.

However, electric cables and utility poles required money. Those who wanted electricity at home needed to fork out a sum of money themselves.

Many people gave up when they heard the price, but Mu Jingzhe wanted to get electricity at home no matter what. She had really had enough days without electricity. She had made preparations for a long time and was just waiting for it to go through.

After it went through, she could work overtime when she had to meet a deadline. Also, there were many things they could do with electricity.

After Mu Jingzhe arrived at the mill, she first went to prepare water and turn on the electricity to try it out. Seeing that the lights that almost no one in the future liked had lit up, Mu Jingzhe imagined that there was electricity at home and felt quite happy.

Mu Jingzhe first followed Li Zhaodi’s instructions and ground the corn. While she was busy doing this, she started feeling very hot. She felt inexplicably itchy and hot, and she became very sensitive. As Mu Jingzhe ground the corn, she felt a little unbearable and, for some reason, felt like taking her clothes off.

Mu Jingzhe rubbed her neck, wondering why she had become like this. Suddenly, she heard a commotion and turned around to see Li Hua.

Li Hua bent down and entered the mill. His eyes looked at Mu Jingzhe as if he was confirming something. “Jingzhe, how do you feel?” Mu Jingzhe, who originally had no clue about her own condition, suddenly had a flash of inspiration when she saw Li Hua’s appearance and heard his words. She knew what was going on—she had been drugged!

In every novel, there was no shortage of such scenes. Mu Jingzhe remembered that there were such scenes in the original novel too. However, she remembered a supporting female character trying to drug Tang Moling, the male lead. that supporting female character had ended up getting slapped in the face. Now, she was the one who was being drugged instead.

She hadn’t expected Li Hua to use such a despicable method after his proposal failed. Did he think that he could have his way just like that?

Dream on! Even if she was drugged, she could still deal with him!

Realizing what was going on, seeing Li Hua approaching her, and seeing the flickering light in his eyes, she stepped forward without hesitation and kicked him.

Li Hua had been following Mu Jingzhe because he had been inspired by Mu Xue’s words after overhearing their conversation. He found some sesame and placed it on the mutton on their table.

He had wanted to see when Mu Jingzhe’s allergies would act up. He wanted to be her savior and do something to facilitate the marriage. Unexpectedly, before he could even open his mouth, he was attacked.

With a grunt, Li Hua was just about to say something when Mu Jingzhe stepped forward and struck Li Hua with her palm, knocking him down.

“You think you can scheme against me? Dream on!” Mu Jingzhe felt herself getting hotter and hotter. Unable to tolerate it, she dragged Li Hua and threw him into the nearest toilet.

This kind of trashy person should just eat sh*t in the toilet!

Mu Jingzhe was quite lucky she had not seen anyone along the way. She was about to turn around and go home, but after taking a few steps, she suddenly stopped.

At first glance, it sounded like going home was a safe option, but her condition wasn’t right at the moment. If Shao Qiyang came back, what if the drug took effect and she immediately forced herself upon Shao Qiyang on the spot?

Shao Qiyang wasn’t as strong as her, so he wouldn’t be able to defend himself against her advances. If that should happen, he would be finished. A fine young man would be… hurt by her. Mu Jingzhe subconsciously thought of the scene of Shao Qiyang shouting “No!” while she laughed sinisterly and said, “It’s useless even if you scream your throat out.” She abruptly shivered.

“No, definitely not!”

In the beginning, when Mu Jingzhe had transmigrated here, the original Mu Jingzhe had harbored ulterior motives regarding her younger brother-in-law. Now that she had finally changed her image, she couldn’t ruin it again.

She couldn’t become an animal who forced herself on her younger brother-in-law. To prevent herself from doing that, she might as well go to the mill to calm down, for no one would go over there usually. Besides, it was near the river. If all else failed, she could always jump into the river to calm down.

Mu Jingzhe returned to the mill. As soon as she got back there, she felt very uncomfortable. Her skirt was fine, but her shirt felt very uncomfortable. Due to an urge to take off her clothes, she wondered if she should just use a rope to tie her hands. At that moment, she heard the door open.

“Mu Jingzhe?”

Tang Moling’s voice suddenly came from behind. “What are you doing?”

It had been a long time since Tang Moling had seen Mu Jingzhe. He had refrained from going to look for her and he hadn’t expected to bump into her today.

He couldn’t help but look at her from the corner of his eye to see where she had a scar. He also saw Li Hua, who was fawning over her.

He was very pleased to see Mu Jingzhe eating so happily, but when he saw Li Hua fawning over her, he couldn’t stand it. Later on, he even saw them leave one after another.

He followed Mu Xue home absent-mindedly and happened to see Mu Jingzhe and Li Hua heading to the mill one after another.

The mill was a rather special place. Tang Moling couldn’t help but think of rendezvous and so on. When he returned to the Mu Residence, his mind was filled with thoughts of what the two of them were going to do and whether they would engage in certain activities at the mill.

Tang Moling was worried and angry. He had been feeling very tormented because of Mu Jingzhe, and as a result, he had even gotten into arguments with Mu Xue. But today, upon seeing Mu Jingzhe acting as if nothing had happened, the more he thought about it, the more he felt that it was wrong. The more he thought about it, the more indignant he became.

If Mu Jingzhe wanted to get married, fine. But couldn’t she marry someone better? How could she fall for someone like Li Hua?
