The Heroine is a Real Boss

Jiang Yurou heard that Huo Jin and Qin Xiang got close recently.

At first she didn't care because she had met Qin Xiang and knew that Qin Xiang liked Song Yuan.

Moreover, she also knew that when Qin Xiang was helping Song Yuan with work, Huo Jin would help him quietly if he couldn't see it, and he took care of Qin Xiang.

She always thought that Huo Jin was just a gentleman to Qin Xiang.

She also always thought that it would be rumored that Qin Xiang and Huo Jin were getting closer, and it was still the same as before.

Until... Song Yuan told her that Qin Xiang didn't like him, but was just grateful to him.

He also said that Qin Xiang delivered meals to Huo Jin every day recently, and Huo Jin also accepted it.

After learning all this, Jiang Yurou couldn't sit still anymore.

During the days when Huo Jin went to the countryside, no matter whether it was female educated youths or those unmarried girls in the village, he never accepted any food given to him by any girls.

Why is Qin Xiang alone the exception?

When Jiang Yurou found Huo Jin, he was sitting under a big tree by the field, holding a lunch box in his arms, looking eagerly at the path leading to the town...

"Huo Jin?" Jiang Yurou called out tentatively.

Huo Jin's eyes moved, but he never turned his head to look at her, and still maintained that posture, that look in that look...

Jiang Yurou frowned, "Huo Jin? Why are you sitting here instead of eating in the cafeteria?"

Hearing this, Huo Jin finally reacted. He seemed to be poked at the center, and looked downcastly at the empty lunch box in his arms.

"I forgot..." Huo Jin said quietly.

"Forgot what?" Jiang Yurou asked puzzled.

"I forgot to tell the cafeteria about going back to eat. The cafeteria didn't prepare my meal." Huo Jin said quietly.

Jiang Yurou frowned, thought for a while and said, "Why don't you eat mine, I just haven't gone to the cafeteria to pick up the meal yet."

"Well, you wait for me here for a while, and I'll get the food and bring it to you." With that said, Jiang Yurou got up and was about to leave.

"No need." Huo Jin shook his head and refused.

Jiang Yurou paused as she left, and looked at Huo Jin suspiciously with a frown.

"Qin Xiang prepared lunch for me..." Huo Jin said suddenly again.

Jiang Yurou: "???"

Looking at the lunch box Huo Jin was holding in his arms, Jiang Yurou's eyes flashed with jealousy.

He actually accepted the food from Qin Xiang.

"then you……"

"But I ate it." Huo Jin said again.

"???" Jiang Yurou frowned, "I can't understand what you're talking about."

Huo Jin let out a long sigh. After having such a long conversation with Jiang Yurou, he finally turned his head and looked at the girl next to him who was obviously not in the same world as him.

"I said, because Qin Xiang was going to the town, she prepared my breakfast and lunch together before delivering them to me."

"But I didn't notice. I ate my lunch for breakfast."

"Qin Xiang won't be back until afternoon, so I'm going to be hungry at noon..." Huo Jin said quietly.

Jiang Yurou: "..."

If he could say clearly in a few words, he insisted on going around in circles.

Moreover, his reaction to Qin Xiang...

Jiang Yurou's heart sank, the result she least wanted to face and dared not to think about had finally happened.

Huo Jin is really different to Qin Xiang.

Jiang Yurou's mind was spinning a thousand times. She knew that if she didn't make a move, if she didn't seize the time and opportunity, she and Huo Jin would really have no hope.

Thinking of this, Jiang Yurou changed from her usual meekness and boldly took Huo Jin's hand.

"We still have to cut rice in the afternoon. It's not a solution for you to be so hungry. I'll take you to the cafeteria for dinner."

Jiang Yurou's face froze...

Her hands are empty...
