Chapter 194: Chapter 194: Carrying Water (Monthly Tickets 1220+)_1

Having finished speaking, he actually pushed his bicycle towards He Tiantian.

He Tiantian quickly took several steps back and ran off with Qi Xiaoyan, completely ignoring Qi Jianguo.

He Tiantian didn’t want to speak with Qi Jianguo and didn’t want to have anything to do with him.

If it had been dark and there were no other people around, only Qi Jianguo, she would have definitely gone up to him and given him a good beating until his head was bleeding, letting him learn why the flowers are so red!

But now it was broad daylight, and Qi Xiaoyan was with her, so He Tiantian couldn’t let her actions be seen by others; she would have to find another opportunity.

He Tiantian had already given Qi Jianguo plenty of chances. Since Qi Jianguo didn’t know how to appreciate them, she didn’t need to pity this cunning, disgusting pervert.

"Qi Jianguo is really too much, keep a greater distance from him in the future," panted Qi Xiaoyan. "Right in front of me, in broad daylight, he tried to act indecently."

He Tiantian said with contempt, "He’s a beast in human clothing, all smiles on the surface but revolting inside. People like him, when you see them, you just want to avoid them."

"My parents also said that Qi Jianguo is not a good person. Several incidents in the village last year were his doing, and Qi Shuli was his accomplice. Their branch has always been against ours but could never turn the tables. Now that they dare to do such things, there must be someone backing them up," Qi Xiaoyan said. Not just He Tiantian who should be wary of Qi Jianguo, their family should be, too.

He Tiantian nodded in agreement with Qi Xiaoyan.

Qi Xiaoyan arrived home first, and He Tiantian followed the alleyway back to her house.

Third Grandma Qi was cooking, and He Tiantian went up to help. Seeing that there was no water in the tank, she went to fetch water.

Not far from the house, she didn’t encounter Qi Jianguo this time but ran into Qi Fangfang instead.

Qi Fangfang’s eyes lit up when she saw He Tiantian. She bounced over and asked, "Sister Tiantian, when did you come back? You didn’t even tell me so I could come over to play! Sister Tiantian, did you bring any gifts for me?"

Here we go again!

He Tiantian was annoyed inside. Just opening her mouth to ask for gifts, without even seeing if the other person was willing or not!

"I came back in a hurry, didn’t have time," He Tiantian said. "No time to joke around, I’m going to fetch water."

Qi Fangfang, seeing He Tiantian say this, showed a displeased face and said, "Sister Tiantian, you’re too stingy. Nan City is such a big place, and there’s not one good spot. Also, there are so many Yuhua Stones in Nan City, bring me a string next time, will you?"

He Tiantian felt like cursing. She looked up at Qi Fangfang and said, "Those things are really expensive, I don’t have the money to buy that stuff."

Qi Fangfang became even more unhappy and felt even more wronged. "Sister Tiantian, why would your family not have money? You even brought Third Grandma Qi and Grandpa Qi E home for the New Year, and the round-trip fare is so expensive. I heard that you even traveled in a sleeper, how could you afford a sleeper if you had no money!"

He Tiantian didn’t stop walking, and Qi Fangfang kept following her.

"That was grandma and grandpa’s own money, not mine spent on tickets," He Tiantian said. "Don’t talk nonsense! Alright, I’m going to fetch water and can’t chat with you any longer."

Qi Fangfang acted as if she couldn’t tell that He Tiantian was angry and continued to follow behind her.

He Tiantian was puzzled. She had made herself very clear, so why was Qi Fangfang still following her?

Even if Qi Fangfang was thick-skinned, she couldn’t be this shameless, could she?

Upon reaching the Spring Pool at the village entrance, He Tiantian scrubbed the bucket, bent over to fill it with water, placed it on the road, then went to fill another bucket.

Qi Fangfang didn’t come down this time but stood by the side of the road. While He Tiantian was filling the other bucket, Qi Fangfang took out a small paper packet from her clothes and poured the white powder inside into the bucket of water.

He Tiantian was facing away from Qi Fangfang, and the noise of the water being fetched was too loud, so she heard nothing.

But He Tiantian was not alone, she had a snake!

The Snake King, who rarely finishes his cultivation, was lazily watching He Tiantian work when he saw a dark, chubby girl pouring powder into He Tiantian’s bucket.

Sneaky and surreptitious, it certainly wasn’t anything good!

"That dark girl poured powder into your bucket, be careful not to mix it up," the Snake King warned; if he hadn’t woken up today, the woman probably would have drunk the water without knowing any better.

He Tiantian paused in her movements, startled, and quickly asked, "Is Qi Fangfang trying to poison me to death?"

The Snake King laughed and said, "Scaredy-cat, it’s not poison, it’s a kind of powder that can make people fall into a deep sleep."

Damn, isn’t that just sleeping pills?

This time He Tiantian understood why Qi Fangfang was so shameless in following her—she was harboring ill intentions!

"Sister Tiantian, what’s wrong? Can’t carry it?" Qi Fangfang saw He Tiantian bending over without moving and hurriedly asked, trying to stay calm.

When He Tiantian heard Qi Fangfang’s voice, she reminded herself not to panic and let Qi Fangfang see through her.

"It’s nothing, there was a leaf in the bucket, I’m getting fresh water," He Tiantian emptied the bucket and refilled it with water.

Qi Fangfang became even more nervous inside, but hearing what He Tiantian said, she felt relieved.

From three meters away, you really can’t see her drugging the water.

Today, enduring humiliation and bearing a heavy load, listening to He Tiantian’s mockery, Qi Fangfang was already fuming. As long as He Tiantian drank the water with the powder and succeeded in getting together with her brother, then He Tiantian would be at her mercy, to manipulate as she wished!

Moreover, all those nice clothes and good things of He Tiantian’s, she would take them if she wanted.

Thinking this, Qi Fangfang’s heart burned even hotter.

He Tiantian filled another bucket with water and lifted it up.

Carrying one bucket in front and one behind, He Tiantian headed home.

"Sister Tiantian, let me help you with the water," Qi Fangfang said with a smile, stepping forward to assist.

He Tiantian declined, "No need, I can manage."

The medicine was already in the water, so why wasn’t Qi Fangfang leaving?

Seeing this, Qi Fangfang didn’t insist on competing with He Tiantian to carry the water, to avoid arousing suspicion.

Seeing Qi Fangfang’s nervous face, He Tiantian pretended to stumble, causing both buckets to sway and some water to splash out.

Qi Fangfang was alarmed and quickly went forward to grab the rope of the bucket in front, saying, "Sister Tiantian, how could you be so careless! Get up, let me help you with the water."

"No need, I was just careless and didn’t watch where I was stepping," He Tiantian avoided Qi Fangfang, "Don’t trouble yourself, let go."

Qi Fangfang dared not let He Tiantian continue to carry water. She had used all the powder, and if the water were to spill, it would all be for nothing.

"Sister Tiantian, you must not have recovered from last time, now you have no strength. Get up, let me help you with the water," Qi Fangfang said righteously, snatching He Tiantian’s bucket without further ado.
