Reborn with a Space: Building a Fortune Amidst Famine

Chapter 804: Chapter 804: Opportunity

Yuanyuan really doesn’t want to stay here; being with them is too exhausting.

Originally, she wanted to refuse this matter, but she thought it wasn’t the right time yet. She should wait until Tan Shaoting returns with the three children, then she can leave with them, and no one will be able to force her anymore.

”Can’t you just spend a bit more time with me?”

”Boss, you’re too busy, and I’m not good at chatting.”

After Yuanyuan came out of the big leader’s office, she went straight to Zeng Zhenqing’s office.

Qin Zhiyuan followed right behind her. Secretary Li immediately opened the door to let them in.

”Xiao Su, sit down quickly.”

Yuanyuan nodded, ”Boss, I’ve agreed to go abroad.”

Zeng Zhenqing nodded. They all knew she would definitely agree.

”Xiao Su, actually there’s nothing much there. Didn’t you want to see the grassland? There’s an opportunity now.”

Yuanyuan just nodded; she didn’t like this feeling of being coerced.

Zeng Zhenqing also noticed that Yuanyuan didn’t seem very happy.

”Yuanyuan, it definitely won’t delay your matters.”

”Hmm, I understand. Then I’ll go back, just notify me when I can start learning.”

Zeng Zhenqing was helpless, knowing that she really has no ambition and doesn’t want to get involved in these things, and not knowing what the higher-ups were thinking, putting on such a show.

When Yuanyuan returned home, Zeng Hongling was probably out grocery shopping, and the door was locked.

After arriving home, she started sorting out the already packed luggage.

Actually, she didn’t really want to go to the seaside; she just wanted to live alone for a while.

She knew nothing good would come from frequent interactions with them, and now here it was.

”Yuanyuan, you’re back?”

”Yeah, I’m not going to the seaside anymore; I’m going abroad.”

”Abroad? Leaving now?” Zeng Hongling was really startled.

Yuanyuan sighed, ”No, it’s after July 15th, though I’ll need to learn the language there first.”

Zeng Hongling laughed, ”So you’re not leaving, that’s great.”

”Yeah, I can’t leave now.” The two of them had lunch together, then went to the post office in the afternoon to send letters.

Originally, they thought of going to the seaside to send them some dry goods, but since that wasn’t happening, they could only write letters.

In the evening, Zhan Yunzhao and the others learned that Yuanyuan was not going to the seaside but would be going abroad in the latter half of the year.

”Yuanyuan, should I go with you?” Wei Guangxiang asked.

”No need, it’s all arranged by the leadership.”

None of them said anything after that; this was a task they couldn’t be involved in.

Before bedtime, Qin Zhiyuan came over.

”Xiao Su, the organization has arranged for everyone to learn together the day after tomorrow.”

Yuanyuan nodded, ”I’ll definitely participate.”

”Hmm, this time I’m not the primary person in charge; the leadership wants me to protect you.”

Yuanyuan shook her head, ”Don’t worry about me, focus on your work, strive for what you need to.”

Yuanyuan never thought she needed protection. It’s not arrogance but understanding she’s not an important figure, not at that level of needing protection.

Qin Zhiyuan is a meticulous person. With this kind of opportunity, there’s a significant space for growth, and he wouldn’t let it interfere with someone else.

Even though he’s not the primary person in charge, he plays an important role.

Qin Zhiyuan just smiled, reflecting internally, knowing it would definitely be like this.

After seeing off Qin Zhiyuan, thinking about the place he mentioned, it seemed like they really valued the people going abroad this time.

The next day, the two of them went to check on the progress of the house, ”Yuanyuan, you know, I suddenly feel like I’m not adrift here anymore.”

”Because of the house?”

Zeng Hongling nodded, ”Yeah, because of the house, it feels like having a home.”

”Indeed, isn’t the main representation of a home the house?”

”Yuanyuan, really, you don’t have to feel so unwilling.”

Yuanyuan was taken aback; how did the conversation suddenly turn to this topic?

”What do you mean?”

”Yuanyuan, since you’ve accepted it, be more positive. I think your mindset is at fault.

We’ve been living together for quite some time, I’ve come to know you a bit, don’t you think you’re too lonely?”

Yuanyuan said nothing. This is a habit cultivated over decades in a past life, unaccustomed to getting too close to anyone.

Subconsciously, she feels it’s her bad fate, fearing it would affect anyone close to her. That’s why she has no friends.

”Yuanyuan, you’re a radiant person, you see, just because I took the initiative, was persistent, and I’m a girl, you became willing to get close to me.

It’s apparent how you keep a distance, not getting close to them.”

Yuanyuan nodded her head. She knows, and doesn’t want to get too close to male colleagues because she doesn’t want to start rumors. Besides, although she never had a boyfriend or got married in her past life, she knows there’s no pure friendship between men and women and doesn’t want to embroil herself in a difficult situation.

Moreover, there’s no romantic affection between her and them, so there’s no need to get too close, causing misunderstandings.

”You’re actually fine as you are, I know many people like you, in everyone’s eyes, you’re single, alone. No matter what you think of yourself.

So all the men who like you want to pursue you.

You never treat any man differently, never giving them false hope.”

”I don’t have those thoughts.”

”But Yuanyuan, don’t you feel lonely?”

Yuanyuan shook her head, she really doesn’t feel lonely, instead, she enjoys this lifestyle, habits can be frighteningly powerful.

”Yuanyuan, cheer up, let go of all the burdens, try to accept the friends around you. Of course, I hope even more that you can be happy.”

Yuanyuan smiled, ”I’m actually just a cold person.”

”But I’m worried about you, you’re too lonely, I hope you have someone by your side, so you don’t have to be so strong.”

Both girls are now home, sitting down to drink water.

”Actually, I’m not strong. I don’t feel lonely, I enjoy living alone even more.”

Zeng Hongling didn’t know what to say, sensing Yuanyuan’s good mood when preparing to leave. But since returning yesterday, she’s been different, a bit gloomy, with little interest, which is why she wanted to talk to Yuanyuan today.

But her words probably didn’t have any effect; she genuinely likes this way of life, and there’s nothing anyone can do.

Shao Hongming also received notification yesterday. He’s really pressed for time now, initially wanting to refuse, but upon hearing Yuanyuan would also be going, he had no objections. Being able to go with her, he’s more than willing, even if it means enduring hardship.
