Although He Tiantian said "I’m not in a hurry," and thoughtfully advised Zhuoya not to stay up late.

But Zhuoya still pressed for time and copied all the tutoring materials.

It took a whole week, staying up several nights in a row, and Zhuoya finally finished copying the materials with dark circles under her eyes.

She didn’t delay, quickly tidied up the original, and then sent it to He Tiantian.

"Zhuoya, you don’t look too well, you didn’t really stay up all night, did you? It’s bad for your health—"

He Tiantian looked at Zhuoya’s bluish eyes with heartache and couldn’t help but nag.

"Yuntian, thanks for your concern, but I’m fine!"

Zhuoya wore a graceful light smile on her face, and her voice remained as gentle as ever.

But, the enthusiasm in her eyes was gone.

In her view, "Heh Yuntian" has lost his past advantages and is no different from those other men pursuing her.

At most, he is taller, has more delicate features, and fairer skin... but can these be eaten?

Zhuoya wouldn’t directly fall out with "Heh Yuntian," but she wouldn’t invest any emotion anymore.

At most, she’d keep Heh Yuntian as a backup, just like she did with other pursuers.

"I heard you’re writing an article? Is it going smoothly?"

Zhuoya looked inside through the crack of the door.

She vaguely saw several sheets of draft paper spread out on the desk.

He Tiantian’s eye flickered for a moment, Heh Yuntian was unlike others like Han Dongmei, who could have a private room.

Heh Yuntian’s room had another male Educated Youth named Chen Jianjun, who was twenty years old this year. He started school late and only graduated from high school last year, and was assigned to the Qingliu Team to join the labor force.

Ahem, and this Mr. is also one of Zhuoya’s admirers.

But his conditions are much better than Heh Yuntian’s. Both parents are employees, and he only has one sister in the family.

Originally, it was his sister who was supposed to go to the countryside.

But his sister found a good husband’s family and even promised to arrange a job for Chen Jianjun.

However, someone reported it. To avoid implicating the family, Chen Jianjun had to "voluntarily" sign up to go to the countryside.

He was the only son in the family and thus became an Educated Youth. Not only his parents, but even his sister and future brother-in-law felt sorry for him.

So, the Chen Family brought out their savings, preparing sufficient money, tickets, and supplies for Chen Jianjun.

It can be said that in the Educated Youth Corps, Chen Jianjun is only slightly worse off than Han Dongmei.

After all, no matter how favored Chen Jianjun is, his parents are merely ordinary employees.

On the other hand, Han Dongmei’s parents are both leaders, and all her relatives are notable figures.

In the past, Heh Yuntian enjoyed a better life than Chen Jianjun thanks to the loyal patronage of Han Dongmei, his devoted fangirl.

That’s why Zhuoya chose Heh Yuntian as her future partner between the two.

But now—

Alas, Chen Jianjun’s looks and talents are far inferior to Heh Yuntian’s, but his family is supportive.

Besides sending him large packages every month, recently Chen’s parents also revealed a piece of information—

Chen Family’s sister’s husband’s family managed to secure a factory job for him.

Although it’s only temporary work, it allows Chen Jianjun to return to the city first.

Once the job there is settled, Chen Jianjun can go back.

If Zhuoya marries Chen Jianjun, she naturally will be able to follow him back.

Although it’s not the Provincial City, it’s still a city within the province, which is certainly better than this poor, remote mountain village.

Zhuoya began to accept Chen Jianjun’s flatteries, transferring the enthusiasm she once had for Heh Yuntian to Chen Jianjun.

Just a shy glance, without many words, was enough to make Chen Jianjun lose his head.

Not only did he disclose everything about himself to Zhuoya, but he actively shared the whereabouts of his roommate "Heh Yuntian."

Of course, when Chen Jianjun told Zhuoya "Heh Yuntian is writing articles, seemingly trying to use the manuscript fees to pay off debts," it wasn’t just to show his "honesty" to the goddess.

More importantly, he wanted to tell Zhuoya: Darling, Heh Yuntian is truly at a dead end, is he really trying to make money by writing articles?

Does he really think he’s a literary giant?

Believing he can get rich just by wielding a pen?

Although Chen Jianjun is dazzled by Zhuoya, he is not really foolish.

Especially as Heh Yuntian’s roommate, he knows very well some of Heh Yuntian’s "secrets."

Such as secretly sending things to Zhuoya, and quietly going with Zhuoya to the back mountain to "watch stars, gaze at the moon, and talk about life..."

The relationship between Heh Yuntian and Zhuoya has surpassed that of ordinary friends, subtly moving towards companionship for life.
