Reborn with a Space: Building a Fortune Amidst Famine

Chapter 660: 660 shocked

Yuanyuan patted the leopard’s head again, ”I’m going back now. You go get busy. Thank you, anyway.”

The leopard sat on the ground, and she let Zhan Yunzhao walk ahead of her, though she didn’t look back, her Divine Sense remained focused on the leopard.

It just sat there watching them, without making any moves. Just watching them like that.

”Young friend, aren’t you amazing? Wild animals, to put it bluntly, are beasts, but this one could give you a gift. I truly admire you.”

”Daoist, I don’t know what’s going on.” Yuanyuan was still puzzled, having never encountered such a fantastical occurrence since coming to this world.

Once they were out of the leopard’s sight, they sped up even faster. They both worried that if they ran, the animals might think it a provocation.

Upon returning to the Daoist Temple, they finally relaxed. At this moment, only Wan Zhongming was there.

”You guys had quite a harvest.”

Both were at a loss for words; Zhan Yunzhao simply didn’t want to talk about others, whether to speak or not was Yuanyuan’s own affair.

And Yuanyuan purely didn’t know how to put it.

Just as the two finished drinking water and wanted to clean the herbs, Zeng Hongling and the others returned. This time they brought many daily supplies.

”Yuanyuan, you and Daoist Zhan had quite a haul.”

”It’s not our harvest; it was given to us.”

”Did someone else climb the mountain?” Zeng Hongling looked around.

”No, we went up the mountain and met a leopard, which gifted me a wild goat.”

”What? A leopard gifted you? Is there such a good thing?”

”Yes.”

Zeng Hongling squatted in front of the goat, inspecting its bitten neck, utterly shocked.

”Yuanyuan, so you’re saying you encountered a leopard and not only weren’t attacked, but it gifted you game?”

Yuanyuan nodded. That’s really how it happened.

”My God, Yuanyuan, what kind of ability is that?”

Wei Guangxiang had already taken up the task from Yuanyuan’s hands.

”I don’t know what happened. I was really terrified at the time and had my gun ready.”

”Wow, what kind of luck is that? Does it mean the leopard likes you?”

”I don’t know.”

”It must be; otherwise, why would it gift you prey? I’ve grown up and this is the first time I’ve heard of such a thing.”

”Well, it’s good that it’s given to us to eat. How should we cook this wild goat?”

Everyone had no opinions and left it entirely to Wan Zhongming.

The next day, Zeng Hongling insisted on accompanying Yuanyuan up the mountain.

”Yuanyuan, do you think we’ll see that leopard again?”

”How would I know? You’re not just coming to see that leopard, are you?” This girl really is gutsy.

”Yes, I just want to see it.”

”Don’t you think that’s very dangerous?” Truly there’s no way.

”Aren’t you here?” Zeng Hongling smiled and retorted to Yuanyuan.

”If the leopard suddenly changes its mind and attacks, your curiosity wouldn’t be so big.”

”Why would that happen? You don’t know, Yuanyuan, I’ve been different from others since I was a child.

Since I gained awareness, I could sense the goodness or badness in people, and could feel if events were dangerous. It wasn’t always accurate, but at least it was right eight times out of ten.

The first time I saw you, I had a feeling in my heart that I must follow you, only by following you would benefit me.”

”You’re quite impressive. But what good does following me do?”

”I know now that it is good. At the very least, my grandfather has given up now. I feel that as long as I stay by your side, the misdeeds weighing on me will disappear, and I’ll be able to live a normal life in the future.”

”I’m not aware I have such a capacity.”

”Yuanyuan, you do, I know it. That’s why we weren’t surprised that the beast was close to you.”

”Is it possible to connect like this? I really admire your imagination.”

Zhan Yunzhao followed behind the two, listening to the two girls talk, and once again felt he should retreat from the world.

This time, they were still chopping wood and searching for herbs, perhaps the Body Building Pills’ ingredients were only available here.

Zeng Hongling, aside from her studies, had truly been pampered since childhood, and watching her work, Yuanyuan felt agony.

”Perhaps you should just help on the side, seeing you suffer makes me uncomfortable.”

”No need, I want to learn too. Don’t worry, don’t worry, I can definitely do it.”

Yuanyuan realized this was the difference in upbringing; though she believed she also suffered as a child, her suffering wasn’t derived from life.

”Yuanyuan, do you think the leopard will come again?”

”I really don’t know.” This one was certainly eager to see the leopard, quite bold, not afraid of the leopard suddenly attacking them? After all, animals are animals.

It truly disappointed Zeng Hongling this time. The leopard did not appear. At noon, the three each had a bun, and by around four in the afternoon, they prepared to head down.

Zeng Hongling was indeed exhausted, her hands full of blisters.

”Yuanyuan, I’m a living disaster! If it weren’t for my family, I wouldn’t have had such a happy first half of life.”

”Haha, speaking from the heart?”

”Isn’t it? I lost my mom when I was little, they all do this business, and usually face misfortune and lack; at that time, I heard my dad crying when he was drunk, saying why wasn’t the retribution on him, why did my mom have to bear it?

So I’ve reached this age, yet don’t have the thought of settling down. I fear any misfortune that hasn’t landed on me would fall on my family.”

Yuanyuan didn’t know what to say. They have done things harmful to Tianhe, so it’s normal to face retribution.

Not wanting to marry is a normal thought, even for herself. If she didn’t have family and children now, she wouldn’t marry either. Life free and easy.

”Yuanyuan, my grandfather and dad don’t understand my actions at all; I’ve never discussed it with them. I fear they’d feel guilty and distressed.” Zeng Hongling was extremely dejected.

”Actually, I also have such thoughts. Now I don’t recall anything from before. If I were in my current state, I wouldn’t want to settle down either.”

”Yuanyuan, do you remember your husband and kids?”

Yuanyuan shook her head; she really didn’t remember the time spent with that man, nor the moments shared with her children.

”Yuanyuan, I think it’s a good thing you don’t regain your memories.”

Yuanyuan shook her head, ”Men aren’t important, but I love children. I want to find the bits and pieces of being with my children, I want to live together with them. I believe only those I give birth to would be close to me.”
