The Unfortunate Jian Mingyue
Jian Mingyue felt a sudden roar in her ears. Before she could react, an overwhelming stench assaulted her.
She was splattered with filth from head to toe—her hair, face, and clothes were all covered.
Screaming in terror, she nearly lost her footing and fell into the cesspit in her panic.
Her piercing shriek shattered the night’s tranquility, and the male and female educated youths quickly put on their clothes and came out to see what was happening.
“Who was that screaming just now?”
“What happened?”
Jiang Taohua also appeared, looking drowsy and freshly awakened.
The more panicked she was, the more mistakes she made. After taking just two steps, Jian Mingyue slipped on the filth underfoot.
Her hands flailed wildly in the air. “Help!”
“Splash!”
She slipped again, this time unfortunately falling into the latrine pit.
The educated youths in the courtyard could now be sure the scream had come from the women’s latrine.
Chen Hong said, “It seems Jian the educated youth is missing.”
Zhao Cuicui covered her mouth. “Ah, could it be that Jian Mingyue was the one screaming just now?”
Ye Qiu said, “We’ll know if we go check the women’s latrine.”
With that, several female educated youths headed toward the latrine. The male educated youths, too embarrassed to follow, could only stand there dumbly and wait.
“Ah, it really is Jian the educated youth!”
“Ugh!!”
“Ugh!!”
“Oh my god, that’s disgusting!!”
The sight they witnessed today would be unforgettable for the female educated youths—something they would remember for the rest of their lives.
Jian the educated youth was in the latrine pit, her entire body, including her hair and face, covered in yellow filth.
Jian Mingyue looked over with hopeful eyes. “Zhao Cuicui, save me!”
Zhao Cuicui covered her nose, took two steps back in disgust, and pretended to be deaf at that moment.
Was this even a matter of saving someone or not? If she went to help Jian Mingyue, she would get dirty too—just the thought was nauseating.
The female educated youths kept as far away as possible, none willing to lend a hand.
Zhao Cuicui glared at the male educated youths in dissatisfaction. “What are you all standing around for at a time like this? Hurry up and come over!”
The male educated youths reluctantly walked over and witnessed Jian Mingyue’s miserable state firsthand.
Their faces immediately darkened. Save her? No way!
Zhao Cuicui said, “Li Guangrong, you’re the person in charge of the educated youth point. You should be the one to save her.”
Li Guangrong, whose name was called, looked extremely displeased, as if he had just swallowed something foul.
He didn’t want to save her, but he had recently received news that the quota for the Worker-Peasant-Soldier University was about to be announced. If he saved her now, it would surely leave a good impression on everyone.
Gritting his teeth, he decided to go all out today.
Despite mentally preparing himself, he still hesitated when it came time to actually save her—he simply couldn’t bring himself to do it.
Moreover, he already knew that Jian Mingyue was a malicious woman, and any lingering affection he had for her had long since vanished.
“Save… save me quickly!!” Jian Mingyue stretched out a hand, looking at Li Guangrong with hopeful eyes.
He had no choice!
Closing his eyes, Li Guangrong used all his strength to pull Jian Mingyue out of the latrine pit.
As soon as she was out, Jian Mingyue collapsed into Li Guangrong’s arms. Now, he was dirty too.
“Ugh.” He quickly dashed away, running straight to the riverbank to clean himself.
Only Jian Mingyue was left behind, being gawked at like a monkey.
Her gaze was filled with resentment—these people had waited so long without helping her, clearly wanting to see her make a fool of herself.
“What are you all staring at?!”
Jian Mingyue’s willow-like eyebrows shot up as she dashed away. Everyone she passed quickly scattered, afraid to be associated with her.
Wen Shunu suddenly remarked, “Oh no, we’re in the same dorm as her. Won’t we be suffocated by the smell tonight?”
Jiang Taohua thought: What a miscalculation. I was only thinking of my own satisfaction and forgot I share a room with Jian Mingyue.
The educated youth point had a large courtyard, big enough for her to build a new house. It seemed the plan to build a house needed to be moved up the schedule—she would go find the production team leader tomorrow.
“Wah, wah, wah!!”
Jian Mingyue ran while crying, just as Chen Zhushi, who had stepped out for a nighttime bathroom break, happened to witness the scene.
The woman’s large floral-patterned jacket, along with her chest and waist—it was unmistakably Jian Mingyue from the educated youth point.
Chen Zhushi no longer felt like sleeping. He hurriedly pulled up his pants and stealthily followed her.
Jian Mingyue crossed paths with Li Guangrong, who had just finished washing up. Li Guangrong now felt nothing but disgust toward her. Seeing her, he kept his distance, taking a detour to return to his quarters.
Chen Zhushi, trailing behind, was overjoyed. He secretly pondered which pose would be best to embrace Jian Mingyue with.
This woman had accepted his eggs during the day—she must be interested in him.
As soon as Jian Mingyue stopped by the riverbank, Chen Zhushi lunged at her from behind.
“Darling, my sweetheart! I’ve missed you so much! Hehe.”
Chen Zhushi wrapped his arms around Jian Mingyue but immediately sensed something was wrong.
An overwhelming stench assaulted his nostrils, nearly suffocating him.
Curious, he reached out and groped around her body, his fingers brushing against something soft.
Chen Zhushi brought his hand to his nose and sniffed.
So foul!!
By the moonlight, he could see what was in his hand—why was it a lump of feces?
“Blech!!”
Chen Zhushi retched, vomiting up the previous night’s dinner.
