Reborn with a Space: Building a Fortune Amidst Famine

Chapter 623: 623 come over

Yuanyuan’s face showed no expression as she ate, but she already knew Shao Huade’s thoughts.

That young man has thoughts about her? She couldn’t know what he was thinking, but she knew she had no romantic feelings for him whatsoever.

In her last life, she lived alone. In this life, although she hasn’t experienced it yet, this body already had a man and child.

Even though they are not by her side now. If she really found them, she probably wouldn’t want a man, having a child is enough.

As for other men, none have appeared that she likes anyway.

She can’t control how others feel about her, but she has no way to respond to them.

She finished eating. ”I’m full, you all take your time.”

After she left, Old Han laughed, ”Old Shao, this girl is truly indifferent. She gives off the feeling of no desires or wants.”

”I think she looks down on us. What kind of attitude is that?” Zhou Changchun never liked Yuanyuan from the start, always assuming the worst about her.

Shao Huade said nothing. It didn’t matter how others saw her. As long as he liked Xiao Su, that was enough. It would be best if his son could succeed.

Seeing her attitude towards other men today, he felt Hong Ming still had a chance.

No matter what, the two could still talk. Moreover, the girl didn’t reject his son, which was a positive sign.

Zhou Yongheng continued to smile as he ate, but inwardly he disagreed with his grandfather. He clearly knew his own thoughts, yet still acted this way. It wasn’t right.

Yuanyuan is truly an excellent person. She would definitely be of great help to him. He wondered what she was thinking.

Back in his room, Shao Huade called his son.

”Hong Ming, Zhou Yongheng is here. I think his target is Yuanyuan.”

Shao Hongming tilted his head as he listened to his father’s words over the phone.

”Dad, I’ll be heading over the day after tomorrow.”

”Arrange it yourself.”

Shao Hongming had already arranged his work here. He would get promoted when he returned. The transition was happening now. He had already taken leave, would start in two months, and wanted to talk to Yuanyuan.

Now, hearing that Zhou Yongheng was over there, knowing what kind of person he was, even though they weren’t from the same generation, he was only two years his senior. They had interacted before, and he knew he was a deep thinker.

Shao Hongming knew that thinking about anything now was futile. He needed to get over there quickly.

Yuanyuan returned to her room, took a shower, and lay in bed reading a book.

The next day, she got up early to exercise and saw Zhou Yongheng in the hallway.

”Mr. Su, shall we go together?”

Seeing Zhou Yongheng, who didn’t understand rejection, Yuanyuan knew that no matter what she said, it would be the same. So she just walked past him and left directly.

Zhou Yongheng was very unhappy inside. This woman’s behavior made him feel slighted.

But he still followed her from behind, running.

Yuanyuan would run a few laps around the track every day. Knowing Zhou Yongheng was behind her, she ignored him.

The usual five laps, and then she left without looking back.

Zhou Yongheng didn’t stop but continued running.

Right now, he was thinking about Yuanyuan. He considered himself a rational person. Maybe yesterday, he could have said this woman was playing hard to get, trying to attract his attention, but today he genuinely felt her rejection towards him.

This was a very frustrating thing. He was used to being praised since he was a child; he didn’t expect such rejection from a woman?

Zhou Changchun watched from upstairs as his grandson and that woman interacted. He was quite satisfied with Yuanyuan’s performance. She was someone who knew the times. Hmph, if she had any designs on his grandson, he wouldn’t stand idly by.

Breakfast was noodles. Yuanyuan ate with satisfaction.

”Xiao Su, I’m going to the city this morning. Do you want to come with me?”

Yuanyuan shook her head. ”Mr. Shao, I’m not going. There’s nothing in particular.”

Shao Huade smiled and nodded. He didn’t need to watch over this girl. The Zhou Family definitely wouldn’t succeed. That boy from the Zhou Family was just a schemer.

Shao Hongming had already sorted everything out this morning.

He didn’t go home but drove straight over.

”Leader, there was a call from above, saying they hope you can report as soon as possible,” Zheng Xiaodong reported as he drove.

”Mmm, I know. How’s it going over there; has it been confirmed?”

”Yes, it’s been confirmed. Also, there’s a letter for Mr. Su.”

Although Zeng Yixin didn’t have Yuanyuan’s address, he found Shao Hongming. The letter for Yuanyuan was also sent to him.

Now it was already the seventh month of the lunar calendar, and Shao Hongming was quite anxious. It would take at least ten days to get there.

He was genuinely worried about Yuanyuan. Such a dangerous thing, she really was going to do it.

He had no right to stop her, but at least he could wait on the sidelines. If anything happened, he could be the first to rescue her.

Zheng Xiaodong also knew the leader was quite anxious, so he drove very quickly.

Ten days later, Shao Hongming arrived at the sanatorium. It was July 11 today, not late, just in time.

During the day, Yuanyuan was not at the sanatorium; the weather was too hot. So during the day, she went out to have a look.

In the evening, she came back and saw Shao Hongming smiling at her at the door.

”Yuanyuan, you’re rushing back for dinner?”

”Yes. Did you arrive today?”

”Yes, by the way, there’s a letter for you. It’s from the Zeng Family. They couldn’t find you, so they found me.”

”Thanks.”

”Go wash up. Dinner will start soon. After dinner, I’ll give you the letter.”

Zhou Yongheng watched from the side as they interacted, becoming even gloomier inside. Before Shao Hongming came, he thought Yuanyuan was naturally cold, but today he saw that she was really different with Shao Hongming.

This made him very unhappy. He felt deeply angry, as if Yuanyuan had betrayed him.

But he was someone who never showed his emotions, so he approached Shao Hongming with a smile.

”Hong Ming, are you here to accompany Old Shao?”

Shao Hongming nodded. ”Yes. You’ve been here for a while, haven’t you?”

”Yes. I wanted to take a vacation. How long can you stay?”

”I haven’t decided yet.”

”Hong Ming, do you have a good relationship with Yuanyuan?”

”It’s alright. I’ve known her for many years.”

”Known her for that long? What was the old Yuanyuan like?”

Zhou Yongheng acted harmlessly. He didn’t know the two had known each other that long.

”Just a little girl.” Shao Hongming didn’t want to talk about it, but he couldn’t leave; Yuanyuan hadn’t come down yet.

”Hong Ming, I’ve taken a liking to Yuanyuan. Do you think I have a chance?” Zhou Yongheng acted as if sharing a secret with an old friend.
