The Educated Youth's Quest to Return to the City

Mechanical Genius Top x Traditional Chinese Medicine Prodigy Bottom Liang Yueze was a newly admitted graduate student, set to continue his studies at his university. In one moment, he transmigrated to the 1970s and became an educated youth sent down to the countryside. He had wanted to continue his mechanical research and contribute to the country, but now he was just an educated youth with no access to research projects. Every day, he had to work in the fields to earn work points. Xu Xiuzhu came from a family of traditional Chinese medicine practitioners, but had been branded a stinking intellectual. His gloomy temperament and that label made him unpopular with the other educated youths sent down with him. Liang Yueze and Xu Xiuzhu happened to be assigned to the same village. One was the son of a capitalist, and the other the grandson of a stinking intellectual, so everyone was afraid to get involved with them. On their very first day in the village, the educated youth dormitory kicked them out. The village chief had no choice but to let them stay temporarily in an abandoned cowshed! The cowshed was drafty on all sides, with only a thatched roof. Liang Yueze had thought sharing a room with several people in the city was already the worst it could get. Who knew things could be even worse! Unable to cook, Liang Yueze could only watch Xu Xiuzhu build a stove, start a fire, and make food. Desperate to get a meal, he made a series of unfair deals with him. Hoeing, weeding, fertilizing, harvesting: what would a 21st-century college student know about any of that! But to survive, he had to learn, whether he liked it or not. After a hard day's work, half of the few work points he earned had to go to Xu Xiuzhu, all because he couldn't cook. Necessity is the mother of invention. After thinking it over, Liang Yueze realized that hard work alone wouldn't fill his stomach. So he seized the right opportunity to help repair the village's broken tractor. The village chief and secretary both approved of him and recommended him for a recruitment exam at a machinery factory in the city. He passed, and finally got to eat state-supplied grain. Xu Xiuzhu was stunned. They were both educated youths sent to the countryside, but Liang Yueze had actually managed to return to the city through factory recruitment. His free labor was about to disappear! Standing in the fields, Xu Xiuzhu looked at the weeds he had just pulled, then at Liang Yueze lounging beneath a tree. He couldn't understand how things had ended up like this. To live more comfortably, Xu Xiuzhu decided to curry favor with Liang Yueze. But Liang Yueze wouldn't fall for it. After thinking it over, Xu Xiuzhu realized the only thing he had left to use was his good looks! That night, Liang Yueze reached into the covers and pulled out a beautiful young man with his clothes half undone... A quick mention of my upcoming novel, which I expect to start next: My Boyfriend Is a Wealthy Family's Butler The Huo family was one of the wealthiest families in City A, and all its younger generation were outstanding. The eldest Huo son was a promising young man. In his early twenties, he graduated with a master's and doctorate from a prestigious overseas university. After taking charge of the company, he led it to new heights, making him the ideal husband in the eyes of City A's rich young women. The second Huo daughter was a top-tier star in the entertainment industry. She had never had a single embarrassing moment on the red carpet, and even her haters couldn't find anything to criticize.

The team led by the youngest Huo son won the country's top science and technology prize. He was the campus heartthrob, admired by everyone. But lately, something seemed off with the Huo family. The eldest son, who was never late, had started showing up late all the time. The naturally beautiful second daughter had several pimples when she appeared on the red carpet, and even heavy makeup couldn't hide them. The third daughter and her husband were always arguing and threatening to leave. And the youngest son showed up at school looking disheveled every day... It was all because the Huo family's all-capable butler, Qi, had been hospitalized. The Huo siblings had been eagerly waiting for Butler Qi to recover and come home, only to be told that he had fallen in love! Ming Zhen accepted an invitation from the youngest Huo son to attend a birthday banquet at the Huo family's old mansion. He fell in love with the Huo family's butler, Qi, at first sight, pursued him passionately, and eventually they fell for each other. Now that Butler Qi was in love, he planned to resign from his position. The youngest Huo son, who had brought Ming Zhen to the old mansion and introduced the two, trembled in fear under the stares of his older siblings...
