The CEO’s Villainess Childhood Friend

Chapter 56



After getting off the plane, they rode for two more hours and climbed up the mountain road before finally arriving at Yu Jia Village.
This mission started that afternoon and continued until 12 noon tomorrow. During these 24 hours, everyone would be able to use the charity raised from the previous episode and their own efforts to win over the villagers.
They were also divided into three groups. However, since the guests had changed, in order to be fair to the new guests, Ye Peicheng and the Lubeige Society were free to participate in the activities in each group.
The most awkward part of the event was Xing Wanshuang’s group. After all, they hadn’t been able to raise any money last time, so if they wanted to win over the villagers, they would need to show some real ability.

Qiao Moyu also understood that in order to win the hearts of others, one must not use money, but rather sincerity.

The accommodation here was even more difficult. There were no hotels in the village, and there were practically no extra rooms in any of the houses here. Fortunately, it’s still warm in the south,
Therefore, the Village Chief changed the only two classrooms in the village into two big shared bunks, one for each man and one for each woman.
Qiao Mo and Yu Qiao didn’t think much of it, but Xing Wanshuang’s expression changed again and again when she saw this. She still held back her thoughts about the camera.
Since it was only for one night, no one brought any luggage with them. As for taking a bath, there was a well in the village. The villagers could only draw water during the day, but at night, they could barely wash themselves. They didn’t even have a shower.

Everyone ate a little at noon and then started their activities in groups.
From 1 p.m. to 3 p.m., it was Huang Chu who helped Qiao Mo and Yu. Based on the fact that the other party was an elder, Qiao Mo Yu asked respectfully, “Mr. Huang, do you have any ideas?”
Huang Chu sniffed the pure and fresh air coming from Qiao Mo Yu’s body. Feeling refreshed, he said, “Yes.”

Qiao Mo Yu’s body trembled as she listened attentively.
However, Huang Chu pretended to be deep in thought and stepped forward, gesturing for her and Qin Qianqian to follow him.
The two of them followed Huang Chu to the Village Head’s house. Huang Chu knocked on the door. The one who opened it was the Village Head’s grandson.
Little Sun, Zhu Zhu was 6 years old and hadn’t gone to school yet. Seeing so many people, he was so scared that he wanted to hide.
Ever since Qiao Mo Yu had a camel, she habitually carried some candy with her. She passed the candy forward and said to the pillar, “Little brother, this is for you to eat!”

She was good-looking and her voice was sweet. The pillar hesitated for a moment before quickly accepting the candy.

Thus, Qiao Mo Yu’s next question was much easier. “Little brother, where is your grandfather?”
“Grandpa works in the fields!” The pillar pointed to the back of the mountain.
Yellow Chu followed the gaze of the pillar. Other people were looking at the crops on the mountain, while he was looking at Feng Shui.

Qiao Mo Yu didn’t understand Huang Chu’s intention in seeking out the Village Chief. However, the more than 10,000 yuan she had raised previously was indeed meant to be donated to the village. Thus, it would be good if she could find the Village Chief first.
Everyone walked towards the direction indicated by the pillar and arrived at a corn forest. When the village chief saw that everyone had arrived, he wiped the sweat off his face and smiled, “There’s nothing here to entertain everyone. Since the corn is done sowing in the spring, we can make some corn steamed buns tonight!”
“Village Head, we’ll help you!” Qiao Mo Yu said. As she spoke, she walked in and broke the corn with another villager.
Seeing her participate, Qin Qianqian also left quickly.
At this point, Huang Chu walked up to the Village Chief and asked, “Village Chief, can I have a word with you?”
The Village Head saw that he was dressed in Tang suit and looked like an ancestor that was worshiped in the ancestral hall. He hurriedly nodded and followed Huang Chu out of the corn field.

The cameraman was following Qiao Mo Yu to film, so no one knew about the conversation going on here.
Huang Chu said: “I just came to your village, and I felt refreshed inside the mountain, it should be a place with hidden dragons and crouching tigers.”
The village chief sighed, “That’s right, our ancestors once made a top scholar in the village! However, from generation to generation, the results were getting worse and worse! “We’ve tried raising bees and planting tea, but we could only barely keep our stomachs warm. As the village head, I feel sorry for everyone …”
“Then, Village Chief, do you know the source?” Huang Chu asked.
“What?” The Village Chief saw the unfathomable expression on the other party’s face and could not help but ask, “Sir, can you give me some pointers?”

“Your village’s plan was originally a real dragon trap, with the mountain as the body and the qi as the function …” Huang Chu gazed at the mountain range in front of him with his eyes. “Look, the dragon’s head is facing the sky. The dragon’s body is coiled around and can absorb the essence of the earth! Unfortunately, the dragon tail is being stared at! ”
As he spoke, he pointed to a dilapidated pavilion at the bottom of the lake. “That pavilion has destroyed the entire Feng Shui!”
The Village Chief was stunned, but soon after, his eyes shone with excitement, “Back then, that pavilion was built when the top scholar returned to the countryside! “I heard from my ancestors that the top scholar was originally a prominent man, but after he returned to his hometown, his position became smaller and smaller. After that, there were indeed no top scholar in our village, not even a High Scholar!”
“A pavilion has destroyed the entire Feng Shui!” Huang Chu sighed, “What a pity, your village shouldn’t have been in such a state!”
When Qiao Mo and Yu Yu walked closer, they heard a conversation like this —

The Village Chief asked, “Then should we dismantle the pavilion and restore the original True Dragon Tower?”
Huang Chu said: “Yes, we must tear down the pavilion, plant the trees again, and when everything is restored to how it was before, when the good luck comes, your village will gradually improve.”
“Thank you, Mr. Huang!” If it wasn’t for you, we … ” The village chief was so excited that tears were flowing out of his eyes. “It’s a pity that our village is so poor. I don’t know how to repay you …”
“No need. The reason we came this time was to help your village.” As he spoke, his gaze shifted to Qiao Mo Yu before saying somewhat embarrassedly, “I do not need any repayment. You only need to remember that we are from the third group.”
“Un, I’ll remember it!” The village nodded.

In this competition, every villager was qualified to vote for only one group at a time. As for the Village Head, one person had ten points, while the other one had ten!
After hearing the conversation, Qiao Mo Yu was filled with admiration for Huang Chu’s dedication. He felt that his sect should accept a little talent like this!
However, it was said that they were recording a program. Was it really okay for him to publicly proclaim feudal superstition like that?

After breaking off the corn, everyone carried the village chief down the mountain. When the village chief saw Qiao Mo Yu carry a big basket on her back, he couldn’t help but exclaim, “This city looks like a lively little girl. I didn’t expect her to be as capable as us men!”
When Qiao Mo Yu returned to the main hall, she saw Xing Wanshuang teaching a few children how to sing. Since she was young, she had learned how to sing music, so singing wasn’t a problem for her.
Qiao Mo Yu ignored him. When she passed by the doors of the various villages, she noticed whose water tank was empty. Thus, she went to fill it up.
She had already thought about it. What kind of entertainment was there? In fact, it was basically useless in this poor place. It would be more practical to just go over and help her.
Under her lead, Qin Qianqian did a lot of work. She didn’t know how to do rough work, but she took everything from her job to washing vegetables and peeling beans.

Dinner was shared by everyone. There were no cows in the village, and the village chief’s son and Qiao Moyu grinded the corn paste together.

In the evening, the village chief gathered everyone together and welcomed the program team. He then built a fire for them to gather around the fire and eat the steamed bun together.
When Qin Qianqian came, she brought her camera and paper, seeing that everyone is gathered, she took the initiative to come out and said, “Let me take a picture for everyone! Just one photo for each of us, we’ll be able to get the photos very soon! ”
There were cameras in the village, given to them by friends in the city, and they had to look like things, and they couldn’t come out right away. It was rare to see a photo of Qin Qianqian’s camera in such a short time.

Therefore, Qin Qianqian told everyone to come to the fire one by one. She took their pictures and sent them to everyone.
At first, everyone was taking pictures in a very proper manner. Later on, when it was the turn of the pillar, he pointed at Qiao Mo Yu and said somewhat embarrassedly, “Can I take a photo with elder sister?”
“Of course you can!” Qiao Mo Yu smiled and walked over. He picked up the pillar and took a picture.
Thus, the villagers were all looking for Qiao Mo Yu to take a picture of. There was a seven or eight-year-old girl who embarrassedly said that she wanted to take a picture with Ye Pei Cheng.

Everyone played until nine in the evening before they left. The villagers were used to the sunset, but Qiao Mo Yu had never slept so early before. He was not sleepy at all. Furthermore, they were sharing a large shared bed today, so it would be hard for her to sleep. Thus, she decided to take a walk outside.
As she walked up the hill, she noticed that there was a small stream about twenty minutes from the school. Although the mountain was cool, it was good not to wash her face and feet.

She put on her socks and went out. However, just as she turned into the woods behind the school, she heard the sound of someone stepping on a dead branch behind her.
She turned her head to look. Under the moonlight, Ye Pecheng was wearing a grey security uniform. Below him was a pair of black slacks. The legs were long and well-proportioned, and very attractive.

He walked over to her. “Can’t sleep?”
Qiao Mo Yu nodded. “I wasn’t tired to begin with. If it’s a shared bed, I’d be even less inclined to sleep.”
Ye Pecheng laughed, “Me too.”
As he spoke, he took her hand and led her forward. “Where do you want to go?”
“Go to the stream and wash your feet.” As Qiao Mo Yu spoke, she retracted her hand but did not do so. She could not help but say, “Don’t be like this. The other guests are probably awake too. It’s not good to be seen them doing so.”
“Better to see.” Ye Pecheng’s tone rose slightly, “I was afraid they would say that.”

Qiao Mo Yu fell silent. She wasn’t afraid of him anyway.
The two of them held hands as they walked towards the stream. It was a little cold on the road, so Ye pei Cheng was afraid that Qiao Mo Yu would coldly pull her into his embrace.
She didn’t say anything. When she looked up, she could see the fine line of his jaw.

Because they were in the mountains, she was wearing flat-soled shoes. Only then did she realize that Ye Pei Cheng was much taller than her. She was completely trapped in his embrace. This feeling was somewhat strange, as if she could completely depend on him.
The two of them walked slowly, about twenty-five minutes before they reached the stream.
Qiao Mo Yu found two stones and sat down with Ye Pei Cheng. She first tested the temperature of the water. It was indeed very cold. She scooped up the water, washed her face, and turned to find Ye Peicheng staring at her.
She asked, “Do you want to wash it?”
He nodded and did the same. Seeing Qiao Mo Yu take off her shoes, Ye Pei Cheng said, “Don’t wash your feet. It’s too cold and you’ll get cold easily.”

However, before he could finish his words, Qiao Mo Yu had already removed her socks and placed her feet into the stream.

Her feet were white and tender. They looked small and delicate, so exquisite that they looked like they were made out of white jade. Only, the toes were painted red, just like a red plum in the snow, looking very pretty.
It was indeed cold. Qiao Mo Yu simply washed her feet and immediately lifted them up. She then used a handkerchief that she had prepared beforehand to wipe them clean.
However, just as she finished wiping her feet, Ye Pecheng grabbed her foot.
His hand wrapped around her feet, and the warmth crept up her feet and up her body.
“Why are you so disobedient?” Ye Peicheng frowned and placed Qiao Mo Yu’s foot into his bosom, continuing to warm it.
“Huh?” Qiao Mo Yu bit her lips and said guiltily, “It’s fine.”

He said nothing more until her feet were completely warm, then released her and asked, “Do you have socks?”
Qiao Mo Yu nodded. She quickly took a clean sock and changed into it.
White socks covered her legs. It wasn’t until he saw Qiao Mo Yu put on her shoes that he retracted his gaze.
He looked around and said, “Let’s go walk over there.”

Qiao Mo Yu nodded and glanced at the man beside her. She then handed her little hand to him. Ye Pecheng immediately grabbed it and smirked.
The two of them casually walked around. They didn’t expect that there would be a thatched cottage not far away. It was probably used for resting and working. The thatched cottage was partially open, and there were some farm tools piled up inside.
Ye Pei Cheng brought Qiao Mo Yu in, closed the door, and sat down on the mat.
The roof was very simple and crude, and one could see the stars from the room. However, there was no wind tonight, so he did not feel the cold at all.

Qiao Mo Yu looked at the stars in the sky and was delighted. “Brother Ye, it’s been a long time since I’ve seen such a starry sky!”
“Do you want to know what these constellations are?”
Qiao Mo Yu turned her head and said in surprise, “You know how to?”

Ye Peicheng nodded. He held her from behind, his face close to hers, his right hand holding hers, his index finger pointing to the sky. “See that string of stars? From this point onwards, I will continue to walk further down the path …. … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … ….

He began to stroke the shape, “These are the Heavenly Zither Seat, the ones over there …”

His voice was pleasant to hear, low and mellow. “The ones we see now aren’t the ones we see now, but the lights they emitted in the universe billions of years ago.”
Qiao Mo Yu thought about it for a moment. Indeed, these were all galaxies that were tens of thousands of light years away. Naturally, they were not what they were now. For some reason, she felt a little sad. “Then, have they already disappeared?”

“It’s possible.” Ye Pecheng stared into her eyes, and his gaze seemed to sink back into the starry night. “What we are witnessing is the universe from billions of years ago.”
In this world, those who were given a long time would feel an inexplicable sense of romance.
Qiao Mo Yu looked at Ye Pei Cheng beside him and suddenly felt his heart beating faster.
“Little Mo Yu.” He called to her.

“Hmm?” Qiao Mo Yu asked.
“Let’s rest here tonight. I don’t want to sleep in the shared house anymore.” Ye Pei City Road.
He lowered his head and kissed her lips.
