While Zhang Xiaoxiao was selecting books in the bookstore, she overheard some discussions behind her.
"Do you think she looks like someone who has read books?"
"Probably not. Just look at her; she doesn't seem like a studious person."
"Oh, this girl is quite pretty, what a pity."
Zhang Xiaoxiao took a deep breath, slowly turned around, and looked at the group of young people behind her.
"You think I don't look like a bookish person because you don't know me, but I'm not as superficial as you imagine," Zhang Xiaoxiao said in a deep voice.
"How do you know what we are thinking?" the leader of the young men asked, his face reddening.
"Because your expressions have already betrayed you," Zhang Xiaoxiao replied calmly.
"I... we won't think like that anymore," the young man quickly apologized.
"Everyone has the right to read; you shouldn't judge someone based on their appearance or profession. Do you understand?" Zhang Xiaoxiao educated them.
"We understand," the young men said, looking down.
"I hope you truly understand," Zhang Xiaoxiao said seriously.
"We really do," the young men replied earnestly.
Zhang Xiaoxiao nodded in satisfaction and turned back to continue selecting books.
Zhao Guangcai and Shih Sheng stood by, quietly watching Zhang Xiaoxiao.
"This girl is impressive," Shih Sheng remarked.
"Yeah," Zhao Guangcai said proudly.
"Her knowledge is profound," Shih Sheng admired.
"Indeed," Zhao Guangcai said with pride.
"Her demeanor is also very refined," Shih Sheng praised.
"Yes," Zhao Guangcai said boastfully.
"Why are you so happy?" Shih Sheng asked curiously.
"My wife is so outstanding; of course, I'm happy," Zhao Guangcai replied matter-of-factly.
"But she hasn't married you yet," Shih Sheng pointed out skeptically.
"She will marry me sooner or later," Zhao Guangcai said confidently.
"Are you really that confident?" Shih Sheng questioned.
"I trust my instincts," Zhao Guangcai asserted.
"Guangcai, sometimes instincts can be misleading," Shih Sheng said, patting Zhao Guangcai on the shoulder.
"My instincts are never wrong," Zhao Guangcai insisted.
"Let's hope so," Shih Sheng sighed.
Zhang Xiaoxiao approached with several books, all suitable for Xiao Liang's studies.
"Have you made your selection?" Zhao Guangcai asked gently.
"Yes," Zhang Xiaoxiao replied with a smile.
"These books are all good choices," Shih Sheng praised.
"Thank you," Zhang Xiaoxiao said politely.
"Zhang Xiaoxiao, have you read many books?" Shih Sheng asked curiously.
"I studied in Coastal Province and just graduated from university last year," Zhang Xiaoxiao replied honestly.
"What!" Shih Sheng exclaimed in shock.
"Wow!" one of the young men nearby gasped.
Zhang Xiaoxiao and Zhao Guangcai turned their heads simultaneously to look at the group of young men.
"Why are you still here?" Shih Sheng asked in surprise.
"We..." the young men stammered.
"Do you have something to say?" Zhao Guangcai said coldly.
"We just wanted to ask if she is really a university student," one young man mustered the courage to ask.
"Yes," Zhao Guangcai said proudly.
"Oh my gosh!" the young men exclaimed in astonishment.
"Can we leave now?" Zhao Guangcai asked, displeased.
"Yes, yes," the young men hurriedly replied.
Zhao Guangcai took Zhang Xiaoxiao's hand and walked straight out of the bookstore, with the young men quietly following behind.
"These young guys today really have high spirits," Shih Sheng shook his head and remarked.
"Aren't you the same?" Zhao Guangcai suddenly stopped and turned to address the young men.
"I... we..." the young men explained in a flustered manner.
"No need to explain, we all understand," Zhao Guangcai said indifferently.
"We..." the young man wanted to say something more.
"You should think about how to improve yourselves," Zhao Guangcai interrupted the young man and then pulled Zhang Xiaoxiao away.
A few young people stood in place, looking regretful and disappointed.
"They seem really sad," Zhang Xiaoxiao said, glancing back.
"Don't worry about them," Zhao Guangcai replied calmly.
"Okay," Zhang Xiaoxiao said obediently.
"Don't help others out of trouble so easily in the future," Zhao Guangcai advised.
"Why?" Zhang Xiaoxiao asked, blinking her eyes.
"Because I get jealous," Zhao Guangcai said seriously.
"Hehe," Zhang Xiaoxiao laughed.
"What are you laughing at?" Zhao Guangcai asked, confused.
"You are so cute," Zhang Xiaoxiao teased.
"I..." Zhao Guangcai's face turned red instantly.
"Why are you so easily embarrassed?" Zhang Xiaoxiao said helplessly.
"I... I just..." Zhao Guangcai stammered.
"Just what?" Zhang Xiaoxiao pressed on.
"I just like you," Zhao Guangcai gathered his courage to say.
"Mm," Zhang Xiaoxiao replied softly.
"What... what's wrong with you?" Zhao Guangcai asked anxiously.
"I'm a bit touched," Zhang Xiaoxiao confessed.
"Really?" Zhao Guangcai said in surprise.
"Mm," Zhang Xiaoxiao nodded vigorously.
"That's good," Zhao Guangcai sighed in relief.
"Why are you so nice to me?" Zhang Xiaoxiao asked curiously.
"Because I love you," Zhao Guangcai said earnestly.
"I love you too," Zhang Xiaoxiao said, feeling moved.
Two people gazed at each other, and the air was filled with a sweet scent.
"Ahem." The young man nearby pretended to cough a few times.
"Oh, we should go." Zhang Xiaoxiao hurriedly pushed Zhao Guangcai away.
"I'll walk you," Zhao Guangcai said reluctantly.
"No need, we agreed to meet at the village entrance," Zhang Xiaoxiao shook her head.
"Alright then," Zhao Guangcai replied, disappointed.
"I'll go first; be careful on your way," Zhang Xiaoxiao reminded him.
"I will, and you should take care of yourself too," Zhao Guangcai said with concern.
"Mm." Zhang Xiaoxiao replied gently.
Zhao Guangcai looked deeply at Zhang Xiaoxiao one last time before turning to leave.
Zhang Xiaoxiao watched Zhao Guangcai's retreating figure, her heart filled with warmth.
She believed that one day, she would completely capture this man's heart.
"Zhang Xiaoxiao," the young man beside her called out.
"What is it?" Zhang Xiaoxiao asked in confusion.
"Um... we..." the young man hesitated.
"Do you have something to ask?" Zhang Xiaoxiao said patiently.
"Can we ask you some questions?" the young man asked hopefully.
"Of course," Zhang Xiaoxiao replied cheerfully.
"That's great!" the young man exclaimed excitedly.
"If you have any questions, feel free to come to me," Zhang Xiaoxiao offered generously.
"Thank you," the young man said gratefully.
"You're welcome," Zhang Xiaoxiao smiled.
A few young people left excitedly, and Zhang Xiaoxiao also turned to walk towards the village entrance.
