Era: The naive beauty charmed the villain!

“A normal manual labor job would cost seven or eight hundred, and that doesn’t even include the favors we’ve done. Li Meihong promised to find them office jobs, charging only two hundred per family.”

Lin An'an was unaware of the details, and she was genuinely surprised to hear Gu Qingsong recount them.

He asked incredulously, "Only two hundred? They didn't suspect a thing, they believed it all?"

Such a huge difference is practically like winning the lottery.

Gu Qingsong nodded and said, "Li Meihong cheated six families in total, receiving two hundred from each family. She held a grand wedding and bought a lot of expensive dowry, which she used up just in time."

"With such a large price difference, and promises of six good office jobs all at once, it's impossible. It's all because of greed."

Hearing this, Lin An'an nodded in deep agreement.

A normal job costs seven or eight hundred yuan, not even including the expenses of networking and giving gifts at each stage. Even disregarding these, the favors and obligations involved are priceless.

Even the children in the village knew about these things, but those six families still believed Li Meihong's lies.

He only paid two hundred, but he wanted to get a respectable office job.

Gu Qingsong is right. Those people are too greedy, and some even have a gambler's mentality. They are greedy for cheap things and suffer big losses.

Since Gu Qingsong returned earlier than expected, and it wasn't too late yet, Lin Jincheng insisted on going back after helping clean up the kitchen.

Although there was a room prepared for Lin Jincheng at home, and Lin An'an treated her as family, Lin Jincheng was still very careful in this regard, for fear of being gossiped about.

She didn't care about these things, but it was never good to cause trouble for Lin An'an and Gu Qingsong, so she should try to avoid it if possible.

Lin An'an knew that she was very insistent on certain things, so she didn't stop her, but simply brought her a flashlight from home.

Fortunately, Lin Jincheng's place was on the same side of the village as the Gu family's, so they weren't far apart.

Although it was getting dark, there was no need to worry too much. After all, if Lin Jincheng encountered any trouble on the road, he could simply call out to the Gu family and they would hear him.

Gu Qingsong stood at the door and watched as Lin Jincheng arrived home and the lights came on. Only then did he go to the kitchen to wash the dishes he had just finished eating, and then brought hot water back to his room.

"Honey, hurry up and wash up. Let's go to bed early tonight. Those people will probably come to the Li family's house and cause trouble first thing tomorrow morning."

Lin An'an thought about it and agreed. It was early in the morning, and if they made too much noise, it would really keep everyone awake.

After washing up, the two went to bed early.

Lin An'an turned off the lights and went to bed much earlier than usual today, and she wasn't sleepy yet.

It gets a bit boring lying in bed unable to sleep.

Lin An'an tossed and turned, occasionally teasing Gu Qingsong out of her own whim.

After several attempts, when Lin An'an tried to poke Gu Qingsong again, someone grabbed her mischievous finger in the darkness.

"Can't sleep?"

Lin An'an was startled by Gu Qingsong's sudden action. Before she could answer, she was pulled into his arms.

……

In the end, washing up early was all for naught.

Although they went to bed earlier, it took them much longer to fall asleep than usual. They even washed up again before going to sleep.
