Reborn with a Space: Building a Fortune Amidst Famine

Chapter 702: Decision 702

However, Zhou Changchun really didn’t like Su Yuanyuan.

Judging by her attitude towards him, he really didn’t like her and felt that she had no respect for him. Marrying such a woman home would only lead to anger in the future.

Su Yuanyuan returned to her room, and after taking a shower, she didn’t rush downstairs.

The only people downstairs who were alright were Shao Hongming and his son; the rest were hiding something. Just looking at them felt exhausting.

There are still more than three months left; perhaps it’s best to go find a house tomorrow. Being with them is too tiring.

It’s Taolin Port. Find a way to get a house there, that way you don’t have to worry about being watched when you’re doing things, otherwise it’s too exhausting.

When the time came, she still called Zeng Hongling to go downstairs for dinner.

Shao Hongming was still waiting for them downstairs.

”Isn’t your work busy?”

Shao Hongming shook his head, ”Busy, very busy. I just came to see you, but I still have to go back to work. I’ll come over again before July fifteenth.”

”You don’t have to worry about my affairs.”

”I’m not worried about your affairs, just about your safety. Don’t worry, I won’t bother you, same as last year, I’ll come find you after it’s all over. And if you really get swept away by a tornado, I can save you.”

Su Yuanyuan shook her head, ”There’s no need. You’re making me uncomfortable.”

Su Yuanyuan was telling the truth; she didn’t care, but in other people’s ears, it was a different story.

Even though Shao Hongming knew Su Yuanyuan had no interest in him, hearing these words still hurt him deeply.

”It’s my own choice.”

Su Yuanyuan said nothing more.

Zeng Hongling listened on the side, feeling quite embarrassed. After all, Shao Hongming was far more advantageous than her brother and Wei Guangxiang, yet even he was like this. It’s clear her brother and Wei Guangxiang stood even less of a chance.

She remembered the promises made by her brother, grandfather, and father, feeling sorry for her brother.

The three of them went to the cafeteria, and Zeng Hongling had already become familiar with the servers there, who greeted them enthusiastically when they entered.

After a nice lunch, just as Su Yuanyuan wanted to take a nap, she heard a knock on the door.

Seeing Shao Hongming outside, she helplessly opened the door.

”Let’s talk.” Seeing Su Yuanyuan’s reluctant expression, he immediately said, ”Let’s talk about work.”

Su Yuanyuan was even more reluctant; she didn’t even have a job, at most she was just an alternate.

”Come in, then.”

”Let’s talk about Cao Minzhu.”

Su Yuanyuan shook her head, ”There’s nothing to say, I’ve already taken my revenge.”

”Yuanyuan, if you need anything, I’ll definitely help you.”

”I don’t need any help. I’ll take care of my own revenge.”

”Alright, just remember. No matter what you need me for, I’ll do my best and won’t refuse.”

”Okay, I’ll look for you if I need help.”

Su Yuanyuan really didn’t have any intentions. Although she was hurt, she could understand. She just needed to be careful with future interactions.

”As for Wu Guobin, I’ve already dealt with it.”

”Wu Guobin? Is he the one I wanted to run into?”

”Yes. Just a simple-minded person.”

Su Yuanyuan shook her head, ”There’s no need. You know what kind of person I am. If I have a grudge, I settle it right away. He’s not a terrible villain, I’ve already vented. Let him go.”

”But he wants to sue you.”

”Whatever. Let him. What can he sue me for? Actually, he’s a typical representative. There are many people who want me in trouble or even want me dead.

Someone willing to risk it is fine; I’m quite bored right now anyway.” Wasn’t Su Yuanyuan aware?

”But that way, you won’t be happy.”

”Don’t worry, someone will handle it for me. No need to dirty my hands.”

”Alright, I’ll make a call to notify them.

Yuanyuan, why are those three following you?”

”Starting anew, turning over a new leaf, living a new life.”

”Will it be dangerous for them?”

”Probably not. We just have something we want to do together right now.”

Shao Hongming was helpless and had to leave. From start to finish, Su Yuanyuan hadn’t asked about his situation. Although he was mentally prepared, it was still very painful.

At around two in the afternoon, Su Yuanyuan and Zeng Hongling drove off together.

Zhou Changchun saw them from upstairs. ”What right does she have to use a car?”

”Old commander, we investigated, this car was a trophy from Tan Shaoting, and the authorities didn’t want it. Su Yuanyuan has always been using it.”

”Hmph, that’s also consuming national resources.”

The two guards next to him didn’t say anything. No matter what, it was no use.

Zhou Changchun calculated in his mind but didn’t continue speaking. Mainly because it wasn’t the right time to deal with Su Yuanyuan now, as she was riding high. It would be of no benefit to him.

”Are we really going to live outside?” Zeng Hongling was excited; she’d long wanted to move out. It was Yuanyuan who liked it here. Living outside was so much more free.

”Yes, people in the sanatorium will increase, and there’s no need to interact with them.”

The car drove straight to Taolin Port, stopping directly at the village head’s door.

”Xiao Su, how come you have time to come over today?”

”Old village head, I have time every day.

But today, I want to stay in the village for the next three months. I’ll need the old village head’s help with this.”

”Isn’t the sanatorium good?”

”It’s good; I just prefer a quiet life.”

”Alright then, I’ll ask Zhao Hai’s family for you. Their new house is finished, but their son won’t be getting married for another year, so they probably won’t move in.”

”That would be great. I’ll pay ten dollars a month, and I promise to keep the place clean.”

”Okay, I’ll ask them. You guys stay inside; it’s too hot outside.”

”We can even stay in a new house? That’s wonderful.”

”The villagers of Taolin Port are all very kind. If we’re capable in the future, we must help them out.”

”Definitely, Yuanyuan, if you have any ideas, let me know, I’ll work with you.”

”Sure, I won’t forget you.”

Su Yuanyuan indeed had some ideas but had to wait until she returned from ginseng picking, as there were too many restrictions at the moment.

The old village head returned, ”Alright, Zhao Hai’s house can be rented to you. I’ll take you to see it. It’s just that there’s nothing inside.”

”We don’t need much, just what’s necessary we’ll prepare ourselves, and we’ll leave everything for them in the future.”

”Not even a pot,” the old village head sighed after speaking. Life was hard.

It was still an adobe house, but it had windows and doors, and everything was quite clean.

Zhao Hai came along; he was a simple and honest middle-aged man.

”Uncle Zhao, don’t worry. We’ll keep the place clean. We’ll prepare any daily necessities we need, and we’ll leave them to you when we’re done,” Zeng Hongling said with a smile.
