After briefly updating him on the people taken from the mountain, he left with Yunyi.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>By the time they reached the small plaza, it was already filled with educated youths. Not far away, on a platform, someone was delivering an impassioned speech at a mobilization meeting.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once the meeting adjourned, everyone rushed to the registration area.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Huo Jingrui silently rejoiced. Fortunately, the young lady possessed medical skills; otherwise, she might have become one of these fervent youths.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As they walked on, someone called out, \"Uncle Huo, is that really you?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Huo Jingrui turned and saw it was Zheng Xuewen. \"What are you doing here?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zheng Xuewen pointed to a few machines nearby. \"Now that the Agricultural Reclamation Group has electricity, we’re planning to set up a mill. This will save a lot of manpower for hulling rice and grinding flour.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I learned about electrical circuits with my uncle in Beijing for a while, so the Group asked me to come lend a hand and wire the mill.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this, Zheng Xuewen sensed something. \"You two?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Huo Jingrui wished everyone knew about his relationship with Yunyi, so he didn’t hide it. \"I’m here to see my sweetheart.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He looked at Yunyi with doting affection. \"In the future, please help me take good care of her, all of you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zheng Xuewen is much more dependable than that boy Qiao Wenyu, Huo Jingrui thought. Even if this young lady is capable, I can’t always be by her side to protect her, so naturally, I’m still very uneasy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although Zheng Xuewen wasn’t as shocked as Qiao Wenyu, he truly hadn’t expected it. \"You two are actually seeing each other?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once he processed it, he said, \"No problem.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Remembering something, he added a reminder, \"A while ago, I received a letter from home. I heard that Sister Huixin from the Pan Family has been transferred to the Military District Hospital.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As soon as these words were spoken, Huo Jingrui’s first reaction was to look at Yunyi beside him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yunyi, being who she was, understood instantly. Although she knew it was just a classic case of a woman pursuing a man, she still felt a bit uncomfortable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Huo Jingrui, afraid Yunyi might misunderstand, yet knowing Zheng Xuewen meant well, said, \"Alright, go on with your work. Please keep our matter a secret for now.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, taking Yunyi’s hand, he walked onward. \"Yunyi, that daughter of the Pan Family has nothing to do with me. I have absolutely no interest in her. And about what I just told Xuewen—to keep our relationship secret for now—it’s not that I don’t want the people in the compound to know about us. It’s that I’m afraid some of them might try to cause trouble behind our backs.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing his anxious expression, Yunyi couldn’t help but laugh. \"I’m not angry. I just didn’t expect you to be so popular.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing the smile on her lips, Huo Jingrui finally breathed a sigh of relief. \"Believe me, everything I said is true.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yunyi’s demeanor suddenly changed. \"What I want, no one has ever been able to snatch from my grasp. And anything that can be snatched away, I wouldn’t want anyway.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just as Huo Jingrui was about to speak, Yunyi added, \"If anyone dares to stretch out their claws, I won’t spare anyone’s feelings or reputation. I have to make this clear to you beforehand.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Far from being angry, Huo Jingrui’s lips curved into a smile. \"That’s exactly what I wanted to tell you. If anyone dares to make a move, deal with them as you see fit. I’ll back you up completely.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He then told Yunyi about Pan Huixin. After hearing his explanation, Yunyi finally felt a bit more at ease.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although they shared a bond from this life and the last, if he couldn’t be devoted to her, body and soul, she wouldn’t compromise herself. After all, life is for living.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They took a tour around the Agricultural Reclamation Group, familiarizing themselves with the various areas, before preparing to head back and make lunch.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just as they neared the canteen, they heard a familiar voice. Looking up, they were surprised to see Zhong Liyuan, the new educated youth from Songling Village who had taken over Yunyi’s house, standing not far away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Clearly, Zhong Liyuan had seen them too. After a moment’s surprise, she ran over to Yunyi. \"It’s you!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yunyi was equally surprised. \"What are you doing here?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhong Liyuan looked a bit sheepish. \"I came to look for someone.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing her bashful demeanor, Yunyi understood. \"Did you find them?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhong Liyuan shook her head. \"Not yet. I just arrived myself. I asked a few people up ahead, but they all said they didn’t know the person.\"\u003C\u002Fp>",820,"2026-06-03T10:43:39.760Z",1,"novelbin.me","ed29f3077fff749cebbd54109ee7965fb42f246d283afc4f3101a35c90f28085","rebirth-the-courtyard-bride-is-cool-and-radiant-chapter-272","rebirth-the-courtyard-bride-is-cool-and-radiant-chapter-51",913,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Frebirth-the-courtyard-bride-is-cool-and-radiant-cover.jpg"]
