When She Stops Being Dramatic novel Chapter 326

Chapter 326: Chapter 123: The Green Tea Female Side Character in a Period Novel (10)

Chi Yun’er was so angry she almost laughed.

’Heh, just because he’s putting on a human face, does he think the world revolves around him? Does he expect everyone else to be an idiot, completely lacking any sense of decency?’

’They weren’t even related by blood. No woman would be willing to let her husband continue taking care of the childhood sweetheart he’d always treated like a little sister!’

And yet, Chi Yun’er put on a deeply wronged expression, playing to his massive ego and placating him for the time being.

"Zishu, you have to stop being so good to me. Otherwise... otherwise, I’m afraid I’ll do something terrible, that I’ll wish I could break you and Comrade Bian up."

"Zishu, just leave me to my fate. I’m just a poor, unwanted soul anyway. Who would care what happens to me?"

Jiang Zishi stared at her for a moment. He had been looking at that face for over a decade. No matter how beautiful she was, she didn’t have that same breathtaking impact on him that she did on others seeing her for the first time.

The moment he sensed her wanting to pull him into her arms again, the unease in his heart dissipated.

Jiang Zishi felt that habit was a terrifying thing. At times, it could make him lose his reason and allow his feelings to be controlled.

"Alright. If my keeping some distance will make you feel better, then I will. But if you run into trouble in the future, you can’t be thinking all this nonsense."

"Even if only out of the bond we share from our hometown, I could never just stand by and do nothing when you’re in trouble."

"Besides, Yumei is more magnanimous than we think. She won’t mind things like this."

Chi Yun’er nodded hesitantly and silently continued to hang the clothes to dry.

Jiang Zishi stood watching her, his hands stuffed in his pockets. After a long moment, as if having made up his mind, he finally spoke. "I told Uncle Minglei about finding you a job. He went to the commune to check on it this morning after he finished his work."

"Jobs are hard to find. Every position is spoken for, and people will fight tooth and nail for a temporary job that only pays around ten yuan a month."

"But you’re qualified, Chi Yun’er. As it happens, the commune’s brick factory is preparing its quarterly report and is in desperate need of accounting staff. Why don’t you go give it a shot?"

Chi Yun’er pursed her lips, giving him a plaintive look before lowering her head. "But... but the brick factory is far from here. With my small frame, how could I possibly make the trip back and forth?"

"I can’t expect someone to take me there and back every day, can I?"
