Su Wanyi thinks the new young man might not make it through the winter.
He can neither carry nor lift anything. He cuts himself while harvesting wheat and falls into a muddy ditch while fetching water. Whenever he sees anyone, his eyes turn red, making him look just like a bullied little rabbit.
As the toughest woman in Hongqi Brigade, she can’t help looking after him a little
“Educated Youth Lu, let me carry this basket of pigweed for you.”
“Educated Youth Lu, I’ve got corn cakes at home. Want me to bring you a couple?”
“Educated Youth Lu, if anyone dares bully you, I’ll protect you!”
Then one night, she catches this supposedly “frail” educated youth coming down from the back hills with a wild boar in one hand, his gaze cold as ice.
Lu Shiyan notices her and instantly switches back to his delicate, helpless act. With red-rimmed eyes, he offers her the boar. “Wanyi, I, I got lucky and found it. It’ll help you build up your strength...”
Su Wanyi: “???”
Later, she discovers that this educated youth’s “luck” is absurdly good
He can “find” gold bars, “guess” the exam questions, and “predict” which industries are about to take off.
Other people build their careers through hard work. He does it by acting cute. “Wanyi, this business is so hard to manage. What would I do without you?”
Other people woo their wives with gifts. He does it by playing the victim. “Wanyi, they all say I’m not good enough for you. It makes me so sad...”
Looking at the numbers in her bank account steadily climbing, then at the clingy business tycoon by her side, Su Wanyi finally realizes
She seems to have fallen for the green-tea tycoon’s tricks!
