Reborn with a Space: Building a Fortune Amidst Famine

Chapter 1214: Chapter 1214: Visiting

Qi Yan went to open the door. Seeing the people outside, he politely greeted them and invited them in.

”Qi Yan, you’ll be the big brother to your four siblings from now on,” Lu Chengmin joked with him.

”Yes, I’ll do my best to make sure my siblings aren’t bullied.”

Zeng Zhenqing patted Qi Yan’s shoulder; the young man was now almost as tall as them.

Qi Hong and Qi Wen also came out to greet them.

”How is your mom doing?” Zheng Wenqiang asked.

Qi Wen smiled and nodded. ”She’s fine, please come in.”

Li Liyun watched Qi Wen with a smile; since she saw Qi Yan earlier, she knew Sister Yuanyuan would certainly be okay.

The ones visiting were all men, so naturally, Tan Shaoting came out to entertain them.

”Xiao Tan will be responsible for logistics in the future,” Lu Chengmin said with a smile, looking at Tan Shaoting in an apron.

”Please come in.”

There wasn’t any taboo here, although men generally shouldn’t enter the postpartum room.

The two little ones were sleeping soundly; the temperature was perfect at the end of May.

Seeing the two children lying side by side, everyone softened their voices.

”Xiao Su, you look quite well.”

”Yes, no problems at all. Thank you, Minister Lu, for coming to see the children.”

”I’ve been curious all day, thinking about how these two children would look.

I’ve seen quite a few newborns, but I’ve never seen any as pretty as these.”

Everyone was looking at them; He Yuanhao was filled with envy, ever since he knew Su Yuanyuan was pregnant, he wanted children himself. Now the others’ children were born, yet he was still single.

Just then, he heard Li Liyun exclaim quietly at the side.

He Yuanhao was certain, she was the one, he didn’t want to wait any longer.

”Sister Yuanyuan, just like Qi Yan and the others when they were young, I remember seeing Qi Yan just like this.”

Su Yuanyuan nodded with a smile, ”Yes, just the same.”

Zheng Wenqiang was also amazed, ”These two children are indeed beautiful. With Xiao Su and Xiao Tan being so good-looking, how could the children not turn out great? It’s only natural for them to look like this.”

Zeng Zhenqing nodded in agreement. He had seen Qi Yan and the others when they were already over a year old.

But he knew the children looked alike.

Since they were all gentlemen, it wasn’t appropriate to stay long; each left a red envelope and departed.

Su Yuanyuan did not refuse this, and when Chengzi and Daqing gave their envelopes in the morning, she accepted them too; these were for the children.

Li Liyun was the last to stay. ”Sister Yuanyuan, my grandpa still doesn’t know; I had even arranged with Minister He already to take time off from work to go to the hospital for your childbirth.

Now that the leave wasn’t used, I can help take care of you instead.”

Su Yuanyuan shook her head with a smile, ”No need, Tan Shaoting is here, he also took a month’s leave, so just focus on your work.”

Knowing the leaders had already left, Li Liyun said, ”Sister Yuanyuan, I’ll come visit you in a few days. I’ll head out now.”

Su Yuanyuan nodded with a smile.

Tan Shaoting and his four sons saw them out of the courtyard, while Li Liyun ran out to stand next to He Yuanhao.

”You all go ahead; I have a few words to say to Xiao Tan.”

Lu Chengmin nodded with a smile, and the other two didn’t linger either.

Zeng Zhenqing stood outside and spoke about Xu Guozhi.

”Boss, don’t get involved in this matter; we won’t intervene either.”

”Xiao Tan.”

”Boss, we’ve known each other for over ten years, and we’ve been here for nearly ten years as well. It’s actually time for us to leave.”

”Xiao Tan.” Zeng Zhenqing became a bit anxious.

”Boss, there’s no banquet that doesn’t eventually disperse. Our family’s hearts are not here, and we have no other thoughts.

Leaving an ordinary life is simply our family’s intention.”

”But you all have contributed so much. Are you really willing to let it go?”

”Boss, there’s nothing to be unwilling about. Yuanyuan got involved out of love for her country, not because we thought we were so great. We’ve already done all we could.”

”Xiao Tan, Qi Yan and the others are still young. They’ll need opportunities in the future.” This was Zeng Zhenqing’s final excuse.

Tan Shaoting smiled and shook his head, ”Boss, Qi Yan, and the other three’s hearts aren’t in this either.”

Zeng Zhenqing didn’t know how else to persuade them, having already informed Xu Guozhi, with a plan.

Knowing this was what their family thought, now they were just watching how this matter would be handled.

To say the unpleasant truth, maybe this was also their excuse to leave.

”Alright, I haven’t come to terms with things at my age as well as you have.”

Tan Shaoting just smiled, ”Different pursuits.”

”Indeed, different pursuits. Alright, I’m leaving now.”

Tan Shaoting knew Zeng Zhenqing genuinely cared for them; though there were interest factors, his sincerity was greater.

They returned home, carrying porridge, and again entered the space.

Tan Shaoting spoke to Su Yuanyuan about this matter.

”This is quite good; it serves as our reason for leaving. We’ve been worrying about finding an excuse.”

Qi Wen became excited, ”Mom, where are we going after leaving here? To the Cultivation World?”

Su Yuanyuan looked at her delighted daughter; does she prefer the life there?

Then she turned to her two sons, who had no particular reaction.

”Qi Yan, Qi Hong, how about you two? Do you want to live here or go to the Cultivation World?”

”Mom, it doesn’t matter to us; wherever is the same, as long as we’re together as a family.”

Qi Hong also nodded,”Mom, I think the same.”

Su Yuanyuan smiled, ”I need to think about it. Qi Wen, if I don’t want to leave, how would you feel?”

”Mom, it doesn’t matter to me either. If you ask me, I prefer the life there.”

”But I can live happily here too.”

”Alright.” Su Yuanyuan knew that even if she wanted to leave, it wouldn’t be immediate.

But it was time to consider how life would be after leaving.

They didn’t go out that night; the two little ones were quite trouble-free, waking up only three times for milk. However, Tan Shaoting fed them Spiritual Spring Water three times.

He Yuanhao didn’t work overtime today and went straight home.

He had dinner there; he didn’t want to go out.

After dinner, He Yuanhao sat in the living room, looking at Li Liyun who was sitting to the side.

”Secretary Li, how old are you this year?”

Li Liyun quickly put down her newspaper, ”Minister He, I’m twenty years old; I’ve passed my 20th birthday.”

”Do you have a boy you like?”

Li Liyun was stunned. Why ask this?

She shook her head honestly.

”Secretary Li, what do you think of me? I mean us becoming a family, what do you think?”

Li Liyun was filled with disbelief. She looked at He Yuanhao in shock; did she just hear that?
