Chapter 193 - Yun Gang’s Scheme

As soon as Yun Xi entered the classroom, the atmosphere in the class was a little strange. Everyone looked at her with fear and dread in their eyes, as if they were afraid of something.

Yun Xi was used to such a strange atmosphere, so she did not find it strange. She just felt that it was a little out of ordinary.

She did not pay attention to everyone and directly sat down on her seat.

In fact, some of the students saw her and Zhao Dan walking shoulder to shoulder together. They thought that the best female student in the school was together with the school’s number one female bully.

Everyone had already felt a sense of distance from her from the start. Now, with the addition of this small incident, everyone was even more unwilling to get close to Yun Xi.

Yun Xi did not intend to make any friends in this high school. Now, the most important thing was to pursue her own career and stay away from scumbags.

It did not matter if the news in the school spread. The news that Yun Xi had helped the county head find a thousand-year-old ginseng had also spread back to the village.

When Yun Gang heard the news, his eyes narrowed. He wanted to find a new way out for himself through this matter.

After all, Yun Xi was a member of the Yun family. Outsiders would not know about the turmoil within their family. As long as Yun Gang claimed himself to be Yun Xi’s uncle, the county head would do him a favor and help him find a small official position again.

Thinking of this, Yun Gang prepared a gift and went to the county head to see the county head.

Yun Gang was confident in this matter. Even if the county head could not be bothered about him, he could still bring out Yun Xi and use her name to beg the county head for a position. The county head would probably be considerate of him on account of this thousand-year-old ginseng.

Thinking of this, Yun Gang hurriedly prepared to go to the county town.

Yun Gang did not know where the county head’s home was, so he directly went to the county government and knocked on the county head’s office door.

“Please come in.” The county head’s voice was soft.

Yun Gang pushed the door open and walked in.

At this time, he found the county head sitting at the table drinking tea with a roll of newspaper in his hand.

Seeing Yun Gang come in, the county head put down the teacup.

“Hello, may I ask what’s the matter?”

The county head of Qin County was a good official who loved the people. He did have a sense of authority or arrogance. There were no security guards in front of the county government’s own office, so the people who needed his help could knock on the door of his office. As long as the request was reasonable, the county office would do everything in its power to help them.

Before Yun Xi gave the thousand-year-old ginseng to the county head, she heard about the county head’s character from Jing Yu. That was why she was willing to give him the thousand-year-old ginseng free of charge to save his wife.

“Hello, county head. I’m Yun Gang. I’m Yun Xi’s uncle. I heard that your wife is currently suffering from a serious illness, so I specially prepared some supplements to send over.”

Yun Gang had also worked in the official office for many years. He knew about this news.

“Oh, so you’re Yun Xi’s eldest uncle. Please have some tea.”

Seeing that it was Yun Xi’s eldest uncle, the county head’s expression became particularly amiable. He even picked up a teacup and poured a cup of tea for Yun Gang.

Yun Gang hurriedly waved his hand and said with a smile, “County Head, you’re too polite. You’re a busy person. How could I let you make tea for me? There’s no need to be so polite.”

“I think Mr. Yun must have other matters to attend to this time, but feel free to tell me.” The county head was also a sharp-witted person. From Yun Gang’s every move, he could see that he must have a request.

Thinking that he was a relative of Yun Xi, the county head asked him to tell him his request. If the matter was not difficult, he also wanted to lend a helping hand to repay Yun Xi’s favor of giving him a thousand-year-old ginseng.

“Since the county head said so, then I’ll be straightforward.” Yun Gang placed the gift in his hand next to the sofa and told him about his tragic experience.

“Before this, I was also a small official in our village. There was a corrupt official above me, and due to that, I made a small mistake. Now, I’ve learned from my mistakes and decided to change my past. I only hope that the county head can give me another chance to serve the people.”

Yun Gang deliberately avoided the important points.
