Reborn with a Space: Building a Fortune Amidst Famine

Chapter 1206: Chapter 1206: Taking Care

After the meeting ended, Su Yuanyuan had another meeting, but she decided to postpone it to later.

”How’s it going?”

”Minister Su, I’m still able to keep up.”

”Don’t be nervous, it’s nothing much. Find your own way. You can use codes according to your habits, that way you’ll be faster.”

”Yes, I will remember that.”

Su Yuanyuan nodded at He Yuanhao and watched them leave.

Li Liyun also followed him back to the office.

After the meeting, Tan Shaoting drove off directly to the Li Family.

When Li Hongxiang saw Tan Shaoting coming over, he felt relieved.

”Xiao Tan, I was just about to ask Xiao Su about it.”

”Yuanyuan knew you wanted to discuss this, she had numerous meetings this morning, so I came instead.”

Li Hongxiang understood that meticulous Linglong has thought things through thoroughly.

”Xiao Tan, what do you think about this matter with Xiao Yun?”

”Mr. Li, actually it’s all about how you perceive it. Firstly, He Yuanhao is an unmarried, promising young man.

Moreover, from what I observed, his conduct and character are good enough.

If things develop well between them, and they’re both unmarried, it shouldn’t be an issue.”

Li Hongxiang sighed. ”Xiao Tan, I know all this, but what I’m worried about is Xiao Yun. If she truly falls for him, and he doesn’t feel the same way, it’ll be a problem.

Even if he does like her, the disparity in status could be troublesome. Living together in the future might be difficult.”

After speaking, he let out another long sigh. As elders, they worry about many things, especially for the younger ones.

Tan Shaoting looked at the elder’s concerned expression, wondering if he would also worry about Qi Wen like this in the future. As he thought of this possibility, a violent aura emanated from him.

Li Hongxiang looked at Tan Shaoting in bewilderment, wondering what was going on.

Tan Shaoting avoided the topic, ”Mr. Li, you’re overthinking it.

Even if it’s not He Yuanhao, you’d be just as worried about someone else.

Let things take their course. As for your worry about Li Liyun, you can’t control it, and she may not be able to control her feelings either.”

Li Hongxiang understood the reasoning, but that didn’t lessen his concerns.

”Mr. Li. If He Yuanhao gets married and still wants to develop further, he won’t divorce easily. So your worries are unnecessary, just watch over as an elder.”

Tan Shaoting was advising Li Hongxiang, as well as himself.

”That’s all we can do. Girls growing up are really worrisome.”

Tan Shaoting shared the same thought. Fortunately, he only has Qi Wen to worry about, otherwise, just thinking about it was headache-inducing.

After leaving the Li Family, Tan Shaoting made a trip to the hospital, something he could have done over a phone call. But since there was time today, he decided to do it in person.

Meanwhile, Li Liyun was busy working. As a university student who knew foreign languages, Secretary Zhang had her review the submitted translation documents.

Having accompanied Su Yuanyuan on a trip, Li Liyun was better at foreign languages than her peers, thanks to linguistic context.

At lunch, He Yuanhao brought Li Liyun along.

Chengzi saw the two of them and smiled.

Li Liyun was genuinely thrilled to see so many prominent figures today. Saying that her leader could rank second at least, and her brother-in-law would surely be first, she felt no one could compare to her family.

Xu Guozhi saw Li Liyun, a pretty and well-behaved young lady, but found nothing remarkably special about her that would attract He Yuanhao’s interest.

Past introductions had better family backgrounds, looks, and personal capabilities than this girl.

Could there be a sparkle he hadn’t noticed?

Even Lu Chengmin and others weren’t fools, they all observed Li Liyun. She seemed just like an ordinary young woman, so why did He Yuanhao seem interested?

Su Yuanyuan stopped eating after a few bites. This made Tan Shaoting a bit anxious, ”What’s wrong? Not appetizing? What do you want to eat?”

The people in the room heard Tan Shaoting’s concerned tone, thinking he was making too much fuss. But they could also see the deep affection between the couple.

”I don’t feel like eating; my stomach feels uncomfortable. You all eat, today’s vegetarian dishes are good.”

”Xiao Su, don’t you ever crave meat?” asked Zheng Wenqiang.

Su Yuanyuan shook her head, ”I don’t feel like eating it.”

”Didn’t you like eating meat before?” asked Lu Chengmin.

”How could that be? I used to love meat, but I guess my taste has changed because of the pregnancy.”

”Your child might not like meat in the future,” Xu Guozhi said with a smile.

Su Yuanyuan laughed, ”Who knows? As long as they’re healthy, they can eat whatever they want.”

”Xiao Su, did you have the doctor take your pulse? Do you know if it’s a boy or a girl? Your aunt says it looks like a boy,” asked Zeng Zhenqing.

”No, but I’ll soon be giving birth, and it doesn’t matter if it’s a boy or a girl.”

In the past, she might have said she wanted a girl. But now she already knew it was two boys, and both had Divine Sense, so it was better not to mention it, to avoid any disturbance.

”Qi Yan had triplets. How many is it this time?” Xu Guozhi asked enviously.

Nowadays, regardless of socioeconomic status, people believed in having many children as a blessing, and there was a preference for boys due to the times.

”Two.”

”That’s wonderful. Xiao Su having one is like having two for others.” Xu Guozhi sincerely envied her.

Tan Shaoting also set his chopsticks down. Seeing his wife unable to eat, he thought of making porridge for her tonight; spirit rice porridge would likely be easier to consume.

After eating, they chatted, and the couple went back home.

When there were only the five of them left in the office, ”Xiao Su is really fortunate.”

Zeng Zhenqing laughed, ”It should be Xiao Tan who is lucky. When I first saw them, they were just teenagers, and even then, Xiao Tan was circling around Xiao Su.”

Everyone laughed, ”Indeed, Xiao Tan is lucky. Anyone would treat Xiao Su the same way.”

”Alright, I’m going to take a nap. I’m getting older,” said Lu Chengmin as he got up with a smile.

The other two followed him in getting up.

He Yuanhao was the last to leave. Li Liyun followed behind him. ”Go have lunch. Secretary Zhang has already prepared it for you.”

”Yes.”

He Yuanhao felt a bit unaccustomed. When Secretary Zhang was around, he could have a few words. But now with a young lady, it’s hard to say much.

Before they finished work in the evening, something suddenly happened. Despite this, the three of them, including Lu Chengmin, hadn’t left yet. Meanwhile, Su Yuanyuan alternated between standing and sitting.

Sitting for too long during the day was quite uncomfortable.

Seeing this situation, Li Liyun felt a bit worried.

But Su Yuanyuan gave her a reassuring look, indicating she was fine, and now felt quite comfortable standing.

They had dinner together, but Su Yuanyuan only ate a few bites, really not feeling like eating.
