Chapter 219 The Jade Pendant is Lost (2/3)

Jin Yuhong, however, rushed out of the brigade headquarters office with a dark expression.

The cold wind stung her face, but the fire in her heart burned even brighter than the wind and snow.

She just received a call from her family in Beijing.

It was her grandfather calling, and he kept asking about her progress with Gu Jinzhou.

progress?

What a load of rubbish!

That Gu Jinzhou is like a rock in a latrine, smelly and hard!

She humbled herself, offered warmth and care, and what was the result? The man looked at her with more disdain than he would at dog poop on the street!

Just thinking about Gu Jinzhou's cold, handsome face and Shen Yishan, that idiot, who was always following him around in his way, made Jin Yuhong so angry that her liver hurt.

She complained to her grandfather on the phone, but was instead given a few mild scoldings, which told her to calm down.

patience?

She wasn't reborn to waste her patience with people!

Jin Yuhong slammed down the phone, her footsteps crunching on the thick snow, her anger practically bursting from the top of her head.

On what grounds?

In her previous life, she tried everything she could, but only managed to become Gu Jinzhou's clandestine mistress, watching helplessly as that fool Shen Yishan secured her position as Mrs. Gu.

In this life, she clearly had the upper hand, so why couldn't she move that stubborn rock?

Was she destined to be overshadowed by Shen Yishan?

No! She was not willing to accept it!

Jin Yuhong, seething with anger, kicked open the door to the female educated youth dormitory.

Inside the room, Jin Zhihong was quietly wiping the old cabinet they shared with a rag.

Hearing the noise, Jin Zhihong looked up and asked softly, "Is there a phone call from home? Are you alright?"

This perfectly normal expression of concern has become the fuse that ignites a powder keg.

"Why should I care whether it's my business or not?!"

Jin Yuhong roared like a mad dog.

She roughly ripped off the scarf and threw it on the kang (a heated brick bed), then yanked open the cabinet door and shoved it inside roughly.

"All you do all day is wipe, wipe, wipe. Who are you trying to impress with your fake enthusiasm? Do you want to be nominated for model worker?" she said sarcastically as she smashed things.

Jin Zhihong was taken aback by her shout, silently lowered her head, and clenched the rag in her hand.

Clang—

Jin Yuhong's action of stuffing the scarf was so forceful that it brought out the clutter in the closet, and several books and a handkerchief bag fell onto the kang (a heated brick bed) with a clatter.

"So annoying!"

Seeing the mess on the kang (heated brick bed), Jin Yuhong's anger flared even more, so she simply emptied everything out of the cabinet.

She vented all her anger on Jin Zhihong.

"It's all your fault! If you weren't in my way, would I be this annoyed? You're a jinx!"
