Chapter 262

262 Stalking

On her day off.

Yu Bing insisted that Jiang Chun change into new clothes before they went out. She felt a sense of accomplishment when she saw how beautiful Jiang Chun looked in the clothes she had chosen.

The two of them took the opportunity to send the gifts along the way, so they only watched the movie at around noon.

At this moment, Yu Yan saw an acquaintance from He Mountain Village. Actually, she had only seen him once before.

Yu Yan was prepared to take an ox cart to town to get the package from home, but she didn’t expect to encounter Cui Jin.

!!

After she saw Cui Jin from afar, she looked around nervously. Because it was their day off, everyone had entered the city to buy things. There were not many people walking around outside the village. There were just children chasing each other and playing around.

Yu Yan walked towards Cui Jin quickly. When she was a few steps away from Cui Jin, she stopped and glared at him as she said angrily, “Follow me!”

Cui Jin didn’t expect Yu Xi’s sister to be an intellectual in He Mountain Village. Before he could say anything, Yu Yan turned around.

He wanted to leave directly, but thinking of his relationship with Yu Xi, he endured his anger and followed her.

After the two of them walked to a corner concealed by a tree, Yu Yan crossed her arms in front of her chest and asked with a frown, “Cui Jin, is there a point in following me like this?”

Although Cui Jin had a poker face, when he heard Yu Yan’s words, he couldn’t help but reveal an exasperated expression. He knew Yu Yan because he had gone to Linshui City with Yu Xi to participate in the military school’s advanced studies last year.

In the army, Yu Xi and Cui Jin had a very good relationship. Therefore, when he arrived at Yu Xi’s hometown, Yu Xi insisted on bringing Cui Jin home for dinner and matchmake Yu Yan and Cui Jin.

Previously, Yu Hai and Li Xin had read Yu Xi’s letter, which mentioned Cui Jin’s family situation. Although he was from the countryside, his family structure was very simple. He also had siblings and his parents were both cultured people with decent jobs. Cui Jin’s grandmother lived with Cui Jin’s uncle, who was in retirement from the army. Cui Jin had become a battalion commander at a young age and had a bright future!

Although Cui Jin’s siblings were a little young, his family wouldn’t cause any financial burden for the young couple.

There wouldn’t be any financial problems if Yu Yan chose such a family. Cui Jin’s family was cultured, so there wouldn’t be communication issues. However, the other party was from the countryside. With Yu Yan’s family’s financial situation, if Yu Yan married over, she would be marrying down.

Li Xin knew Yu Yan’s temper too well. She wasn’t someone who could withstand suffering, so if she found someone with slightly worse financial conditions, the other party’s parents would be more tolerant of her.

Moreover, after they found a job in the city for Yu Yan, the other party’s parents definitely wouldn’t stop her. This way, when their son-in-law returned to the army, Yu Yan could return to her maiden home and they could take care of her.

Therefore, the Yu family was very satisfied with Cui Jin. When they ate together that day, they saw that Yu Yan’s attitude towards Cui Jin wasn’t bad. She even looked bashful when she looked at Cui Jin, so the couple thought that this matter would go smoothly.

Therefore, after Yu Xi and Cui Jin returned to school, Li Xin couldn’t wait to tell Yu Yan about Cui Jin’s family situation. Unexpectedly, after she told Yu Yan that Cui Jin’s family was from the countryside and that he had a six-year-old sister, Yu Yan became enraged and blamed them for trying to ruin her life. Li Xin was so angry that she almost had a heart attack.

A few days later, since Yu Hai and Li Xin didn’t want to miss out on this good son-in-law, they mentioned Cui Jin to Yu Yan again. This time, as soon as they mentioned his name, Yu Yan immediately covered her ears and said that she never wanted to hear this name again. Otherwise, she would go on a hunger strike.

Marriage was a joyous occasion, but since Yu Yan was so resistant and Li Xin didn’t want her daughter to be unhappy, she could only give up on this idea.

Cui Jin was also very embarrassed during the meal that day. At that time, his parents and superiors had been urging him to get married. He didn’t have a sweetheart, so he went to the Yu family’s house with the intention of taking a look.

Yu Yan was quite good-looking, but Cui Jin really didn’t feel anything for her. After returning to school, he was even thinking about how to reject the matter if Yu Xi mentioned this again. However, this matter was left unsettled. Cui Jin knew that Yu Yan probably didn’t fancy him, so he heaved a sigh of relief.

When Cui Jin saw that Yu Yan had mistaken him for a stalker, he thought about it and felt that he should explain himself so as not to scare the young lady.

When Yu Yan saw that Cui Jin was about to say something, she immediately made a stop sign and continued loudly with an impatient expression, “I don’t want to hear your confession. I won’t change my decision. For my brother’s sake, I won’t fuss over your harassment this time. If there’s a next time, I’ll report you to the army! I’ll even…”
