Reborn as a Weak Beauty Pampered by All

Chapter 13: Chapter 13 The So-Called Selfishness Leads to Universal Condemnation

Based on this, she naturally harbored resentment against the other, yes, resentment, not just the envy she felt towards Li Bao...so, when Zhou Weimin found her yesterday evening and asked her to bring Li Bao to the creek behind the village first thing this morning, she didnʼt even think about it and nodded in agreement right away.

She knew Zhou Weimin wanted to persuade Li Bao not to marry the second-marriage man her family had found for her. Since his heart still inclined towards Li Bao, she saw no reason not to seize this opportunity to bring them together, leaving Educated Youth Su with empty efforts, which would facilitate her planning for her own matters in the future.

But she hadnʼt expected an accident to occur.

Indeed, she could have never imagined that Li Bao would fall down by the creek, hit the back of her head, and faint...To tell the truth, she was frustrated and anxious, especially upon hearing that Li Bao hadnʼt come around for a long time, guilt inevitably arose in her heart.

Li Bao, no matter what, was her friend; she was jealous of her, tried to steal her man, but she had never wished for her to come to harm.

”Chunxia, Li Bao wonʼt have anything wrong with her, right?”

Ever since Kang Li had fallen and lost consciousness by the creek, Zhou Weimin had been extremely anxious. He was supposed to go to work early in the morning, but he couldnʼt rest easy about his former fiancée, Kang Li, so he decided to stay home and wait for news from the Kang Family.

Knowing he was worried about Kang Li, Educated Youth Su, also known as Su Qing, was naturally not pleased, but she did not show the slightest hint of it on her face, and instead, suggested they visit Kang Li together at the Kang Family.

However, Zhou Weimin feared Su Qingʼs presence would upset Kang Li and refused to agree, which led to a quarrel between them on the roadside.

Frankly, Su Qing was worried that Zhou Weimin and Kang Liʼs old feelings might rekindle. After all, she had not yet married into the Zhou Family, she was not yet Zhou Weiminʼs wife in the legal, official sense. If a mishap occurred between them at this time, what would be the right thing for her to do?

But before she could persuade Zhou Weimin to take her with him, they were caught by Xu Chunxia arguing on the roadside.

It was indeed an argument, even if there was no visible anger on their faces, their conversation was truly discordant.

”This is definite now!”

Xu Chunxia nodded vigorously, then said, ”Li Bao is kind and wonderful, even if I am in trouble, she wouldnʼt be.”

”Donʼt say that.”

Looking at Xu Chunxia, Zhou Weimin showed a look of regret, ”Youʼre a good girl too, donʼt curse yourself. Come to think of it, if I hadnʼt asked you to set up the meeting with Li Bao, she wouldnʼt have had that accident.”

Upon hearing this, Xu Chunxia suddenly felt a rush of sweetness, but her expression was visibly guilty, ”If... if I had been there at the time, maybe Li Bao wouldnʼt have...”

She didnʼt finish her sentence but appeared even more guilty.

Zhou Weimin: ”Itʼs all my fault, actually.”

”Weimin, donʼt blame yourself, you wouldnʼt have wanted Comrade Kang Li to get into trouble, and I believe Comrade Kang Li has her own good fortune; she might have already woken up by now.”

Su Qing interjected, looking at Zhou Weimin with eyes full of concern, soothingly comforting the man she had calculated to ensnare.

In fact... she didnʼt truly like the person by her side; she just wanted to make her days in the countryside easier. In other words, she was finding a temporary support for herself so that she wouldnʼt be worn out by laboring under the sun and the wind each day, risking her health or even her life in this remote backwater before she could return to the city.

And the fact that she could even think of scheming against Zhou Weimin, knowing full well that Zhou Weimin had an engaged partner, was something she learned from her own younger sister.

Ashamed?

When she first entertained the idea, indeed, there was some, but then she reflected... when she reflected on what her younger sister had done to her, her sense of shame disappeared.

Because every man for himself, and the Devil takes the hindmost!
