Reborn in the Eighties as a Housewife with a Space

Chapter 2788: Chapter 2786: Speak of the Devil

”Such a young lady already opening her own store and becoming a boss, your future is surely limitless. How could someone like you possibly have no suitors? You just don’t want one yourself,” Nangong Shulan responded, not having heard what they said earlier.

”Yes, I haven’t met anyone who moves my heart yet, so I’m focusing on my career. Anyway, you can’t force fate; when the time comes, it will naturally happen.” In her past life, Su Han met Qin Xue a week later. At that time, she was also out, and they bumped into each other. She wasn’t pregnant then.

So, this life has seen many changes, but she doesn’t know what went wrong.

However, aside from these, everything else hasn’t changed.

Her business faced a crisis. Because they knew each other, she helped manage that crisis, and they became good friends.

Later, she often visited Qin Xue and met her husband. The moment she saw him, she was awestruck, never expecting such a handsome man to exist.

Gradually, she became attracted. This made her visit Qin Xue’s home more frequently.

But she never expected that the relationship between the couple was merely respectful without a foundation of love. Nevertheless, Chu Molin was good to his wife, always fulfilling his responsibilities, never shirking.

So she slowly fell for him, but due to her friendship with Qin Xue, she didn’t dare to express her feelings. She didn’t want to lose Qin Xue as a friend. Until after Qin Xue’s death, Su Han thought her chance had come, but unexpectedly, he remained single and did not remarry.

This was her heartache. She asked him why he wouldn’t love her and yet refused to marry again. He only looked into the distance, not answering her.

Yet, he ascended step by step to high positions. When he stood on the high platform, she felt both happy and sad. If she couldn’t have him, she would accompany him.

She really thought he was indifferent to her, until she died in his arms and saw his reluctance, which was why she came back.

She knew all their personalities, so she wouldn’t act rashly. She was waiting for an opportunity.

”Well said, if everyone thought like you, this world would be much more peaceful.” Qin Xue didn’t expect they were back, and Su Han still hadn’t left.

So much to talk about; it’s been half a day and she’s still in her store.

”You’re back. Earlier Auntie asked if I had seen you. She praised you for being beautiful and nice, and here you are—really fits the saying, ’Speak of the devil.’” Su Han laughed towards the sound.

”Haha, the landlady flatters me. If only I were Cao Cao, but alas, I’m just a small woman. I don’t have such grand ambitions or designs,” Qin Xue only wished for a simple life, not one filled with schemes.

That kind of life is really not good anywhere. She lived uneasily, so she didn’t want such a life.

”It’s just a metaphor, not asking you to be Cao Cao. Today’s society isn’t like that anymore.” Su Han chuckled.

The new era has arrived; there’s no more dynasty. Even if she wanted to be, it’s impossible.

However, she did not expect Qin Xue to be so cheeky; this made her seem much more genuine, unlike her previous attitude, which was too fake and overly guarded.

She had also reflected on herself, wondering if she had done something wrong. Later, she thought she was too impatient. No matter who it was, being so warm and talkative to strangers was unsettling, let alone to the couple.
