Reborn with a Space: Building a Fortune Amidst Famine

Chapter 419: 419 Targeted

Cao Jinling, who was eating, heard the noise from next door, put down her unfinished meal, and ran out.

When she got outside, she saw the backs of the father and his three children, and hurried to catch up.

This was an opportunity, just him alone with the kids.

Kang Jing finished work today, feeling exhausted, although there wasn’t much happening at work, they were organizing them for training.

Every day, she had to learn from experienced doctors, which was extremely tiring, especially mentally.

Seeing the man walking over, looking like a god, made Kang Jing’s fatigue instantly disappear.

”Hello, comrade, are you new here?”

She had heard just yesterday that a family had moved in next door.

Tan Shaoting didn’t lift his head, nor did he respond, holding his daughter’s hand, brushing past Kang Jing.

Kang Jing was stunned. Was it because she spoke too softly?

She also saw Cao Jinling behind, they were two years apart, and since moving here, they’ve been secretly competing.

She worked hard to get into the hospital, which she felt was her edge over Cao Jinling.

The two women locked eyes. Kang Jing understood that Cao Jinling had her sights set on that man just now.

Ha, is Cao Jinling so lacking in restraint? Chasing a man?

It seems she also got no response, just like herself.

With this thought, Kang Jing’s mind felt at ease.

”Xiao Ling, why are you in such a rush?”

”Sister Xiao Jing, you just got back? I have something to do, we’ll talk next time,” Cao Jinling didn’t have time to chat, their relationship wasn’t good anyway, just cordial on the surface, no need to pretend.

Kang Jing wasn’t going to let her get away with it, she grabbed her arm.

”Xiao Ling, we haven’t seen each other for a while, you’re not going out, let’s chat?”

”Next time, I’m really in a hurry now,” Cao Jinling shook off Kang Jing’s hand and chased after Tan Shaoting.

Kang Jing watched Cao Jinling and sneered.

Always acting so high and mighty before, and now chasing after a man?

And that man has a wife and kids, does Cao Jinling not mind?

Kang Jing smiled and turned to leave. She’d better hurry home. She had her eye on that man too.

And even if she didn’t, because Cao Jinling was interested, she’d get involved. No way she’d let her have her way.

Tan Shaoting knew the bothersome person wasn’t following anymore, and felt relieved.

”You three, where do you want to go? How about the training ground?”

All three nodded. They were happy as long as they got to play, the destination didn’t matter.

Cao Jinling finally caught up with the man she was interested in.

”Comrade, wait a minute.” She had to half-jog to catch up.

Tan Shaoting didn’t slow down at all, but the three kids curiously turned to look back, which slowed them down.

Cao Jinling saw they ignored her, feeling a bit wronged. She ran a few more steps to stand in front of Tan Shaoting, face-to-face.

”Comrade, didn’t you hear me talking to you?”

Tan Shaoting looked down at the three kids instead of looking at her.

”Let’s go.”

Cao Jinling finally saw Tan Shaoting’s face, and she found herself really liking it.

As she dazed off, Tan Shaoting, holding the three kids’ hands, walked past her.

Cao Jinling was stunned. Why didn’t he acknowledge her?

So she turned again, reaching out to tap Tan Shaoting’s shoulder.

He had already let go of the kids, so he stepped aside.

Unwilling, Cao Jinling saw him stop, and reached out again.

Tan Shaoting turned and kicked directly at her.

Their moves were similar, but Tan Shaoting was much stronger than Su Yuanyuan, so his kick sent Cao Jinling flying five or six meters, landing her on the ground.

Tan Shaoting turned and continued walking with the kids.

Cao Jinling was dumbfounded, she’d never encountered such a thing. A man hitting a woman?

She wanted to get up and argue with Tan Shaoting but struggled twice before standing.

It really hurt, her butt hurt, her stomach too. Seeing they were heading to the training ground, she really couldn’t chase them with so many people there.

If no one saw, it wouldn’t matter if she felt wronged, but with people around, it was no good.

How would she live here afterwards? That absolutely wouldn’t do.

So Cao Jinling held her stomach and went home.

Filled with resentment, why was she treated like this? Even got kicked?

Tan Shaoting, knowing the annoying person wasn’t following, felt good.

”Dad. Wasn’t that hitting someone?” Qi Hong still smiling asked.

”You three must remember. For those you dislike, you can ignore and be indifferent, but if they cross your line, don’t mind if they’re male or female.”

The kids were still young. Even if smart, they had limits, so they didn’t understand fully what he said.

The four arrived at the training ground. Tan Shaoting took the kids to play. They just had dinner, no training yet, so they could play for a while.

Cao Jinling went home, holding her stomach. Cao Mingjun saw her pale face entering.

”What’s wrong?”

”It’s nothing, just a bit of a stomachache, Dad, I’m going to my room.”

She lay on the bed, her mind filled with Tan Shaoting’s face. She felt she was really falling.

Thinking about Tan Shaoting’s face, she felt she must find a way to get him.

No one else in the world could compare to Tan Shaoting,

and why was he so excellent. Why was such a person married with children?

But no matter, she didn’t mind that.

The Kang family was having dinner.

”Mom, I just saw the man who moved in next door go out with the kids.”

Zheng Yuhua nodded, ”Yes, I saw them move in yesterday, the whole family’s good-looking.”

”They are, but too cold, I greeted him, and he ignored me.”

Kang Mingjian chimed in, ”Tan Shaoting is indeed too cold, doesn’t like to talk. They went to meet the big boss today, I bet he’ll get promoted.”

”Promoted? How old is he?”

”Big contributions matter, age doesn’t.”

”You’ve been here so many years, done so much, and a newcomer gets promoted, that’s not fair,” Zheng Yuhua murmured, very dissatisfied, why?
