Reborn with a Space: Building a Fortune Amidst Famine

Chapter 299: 299 come back

In the evening, I didn’t have dinner, no appetite, just didn’t feel hungry. After taking a bath in the space, I finally lay in bed.

Tan Shaoting arrived at the doorstep around one o’clock after midnight. He just stood outside watching, his face full of smiles. He was back. He was finally back.

He didn’t call out but jumped in directly.

Hearing the sheep’s bleat, he thought it was indeed worth feeding them Spiritual Spring Water.

Su Yuanyuan woke up as soon as Tan Shaoting jumped in, and seeing the person outside, she suddenly felt a little wronged.

As she sat up, Tan Shaoting also entered the room.

The two of them looked at each other in the pitch-black night, one standing by the edge of the kang, the other sitting in bed.

Suddenly, Tan Shaoting threw off his coat and hat, jumped onto the bed, and hugged Su Yuanyuan tightly.

He whispered softly in her ear, ”I’m back. I’m back.”

Su Yuanyuan tried a few times to push him away but ended up hugging the person holding her.

”You’re back.”

”Yes, I’m back, back to see you, I missed you.”

The two of them just held each other quietly. Silence spoke louder than words now.

Being embraced by Tan Shaoting like this, Su Yuanyuan suddenly felt settled.

”Are you tired?”

”Not tired, not hungry, as long as I’m by your side, I only feel happiness.”

”Let go of me, go wash up, and I’ll prepare food for you, your favorite dumplings.”

Tan Shaoting laughed, his deep manly laughter echoed in Su Yuanyuan’s ears.

Su Yuanyuan suddenly felt her heartbeat speed up, and her ears and face felt hot.

Of course, Tan Shaoting noticed Su Yuanyuan’s change. He got a bit excited. He suddenly drew back a bit, just looking at her.

”Yuanyuan, have you also fallen for me? Have you? Can you respond to me now?”

Su Yuanyuan suddenly laughed, so this is what it’s like to be moved.

”Yes, I’ve fallen for you.”

Upon hearing these words, Tan Shaoting eagerly kissed the treasure in his arms.

In the past, he had also felt such an urge but only gently touched her because he knew this girl hadn’t accepted it yet.

So he waited, he had the time to wait. The gods do not fail the earnest, and he indeed waited long enough.

Both were very inexperienced, but couldn’t resist the desire to please each other.

Su Yuanyuan finally understood why, in her past life, she couldn’t understand why couples in love always stuck together, thinking they had some thirst syndrome; it turns out this is what it feels like.

Tan Shaoting felt as if he couldn’t get enough. So he started taking off his clothes but still didn’t let go of his long-desired treasure.

Su Yuanyuan felt his movement and laughed.

”Don’t laugh at me.” By now he was only in his underwear, holding Su Yuanyuan and lying down, he covered them with the quilt.

”Yuanyuan, thank you. Thank you for accepting me. I was already planning on using force if you didn’t come around in ten years.”

”You’ve waited long enough.”

The two lay holding each other in bed, whispering and laughing softly.

”Why have you come back?”

”This time the mission wasn’t far from here, so I took a leave and came back, I can stay home with you for twenty days.”

”Do you have to go back to the border?”

”Yes. I still have to go back. I don’t want to, though.”

Su Yuanyuan thought his childlike words were quite amusing. It wasn’t up to him anyway.

”Alright, let go of me. There’s plenty of hot water, go wash up while I cook for you, there are dumplings with beef and green onions, you’ll be able to eat soon.”

”I don’t want to do anything, just want to hold you like this.”

”Alright, let go of me. You came back and now I want to eat too.”

”You haven’t eaten?”

”Yeah, it’s just me, I haven’t been active, so of course I didn’t feel hungry. Alright, let go.”

Tan Shaoting kissed her for a while before finally letting her go.

Su Yuanyuan got up to prepare bathwater for him.

Tan Shaoting, looking at the woman busily preparing things for him, just lay smiling in bed. This kind of life was addictive.

”Yuanyuan.”

”What is it?”

”Nothing. Just wanted to call you.”

”Alright, go shower, I’ll go cook dumplings.”

Tan Shaoting got out of bed, moving very quickly.

When Su Yuanyuan brought the table in, he had already tidied up the room.

The table was simply placed on the kang, and two candles lit the room, making it exceptionally bright.

Su Yuanyuan had even prepared vinegar and chili oil for Tan Shaoting, with minced garlic. It was the flavor he loved.

”Still, your cooking is my favorite.” Tan Shaoting sighed as he ate. For people wandering outside, what they cherish and long for most is home.

They were having this meal after midnight, and Su Yuanyuan barely had a few before stopping. She really couldn’t eat much at this hour. Then she took out the sausages and bacon she made recently from the space.

Goodness, it was all meat. But Tan Shaoting liked it.

Even he couldn’t believe how much he had grown to love meat.

Su Yuanyuan also took out a lot of beef jerky.

”This is a snack I made for you, very convenient for eating anytime.”

Tan Shaoting’s eyes were full of smiles. Although this girl hadn’t accepted him before, her subconscious care for him was undeniable.

”This is delicious, but the flavor is too strong to eat alone.”

”It’s the seasoning; you can share it.”

After saying this, Su Yuanyuan laughed, a phrase she often told the kids at the orphanage.

Tan Shaoting didn’t know why she laughed, but seeing her laugh, he laughed too.

They were full, sipping the dumpling soup.

”Yuanyuan, I’ll go back and file a report; let’s get married.”

”Married? It’s too soon.” Su Yuanyuan felt she wasn’t ready to start a family with a man yet.

”Two of my comrades are getting married after returning this time.” He was really envious.

”Let’s wait a few more years.” They had just confirmed their relationship; was marriage next?

Tan Shaoting just smiled. ”I’ll file the report first and wait for you.”

After eating, Su Yuanyuan found bedding for Tan Shaoting; he’d have to sleep here tonight. That room was too cold, having never been heated, it was uninhabitable.

Tan Shaoting’s smile never faded.

”Hurry up, go to sleep. Aren’t you tired?”

”Not tired. Oh, right, don’t lie down yet, I brought back something good for you.” Saying this, two boxes appeared on the ground.

Su Yuanyuan saw the two boxes full of Jinyu and couldn’t stop smiling. This year, because of Zheng Lanying, she had held back a lot and hadn’t exchanged for many Jinyu; she didn’t expect Tan Shaoting to bring back so many.

”How did you get them?”

”Traded pork, beef, and fish for them.”

”Must have struck a deal with someone big to get so many.”

”The person said they were from underground.”
