Reborn with a Space: Building a Fortune Amidst Famine

Chapter 810: 810 Comprehension

The upcoming studies are going to be more profound. They provide access to some hidden information from over there, which suits their status to know. Every day is a monotonous routine.

Now it’s finally too hot. They’ve arranged a dormitory here, but Su Yuanyuan hasn’t used it even for a day—it’s just too hot.

Going home is uncomfortable on the way there and back, but it becomes comfortable once I’m home.

”Xiao Su, wouldn’t you feel more comfortable if you drive?”

Su Yuanyuan shook her head, ”There’s no need.” Don’t invite unnecessary trouble.

That day, she was in class when she heard someone calling her. It was her phone ringing.

This was quite surprising; how could anyone know to call this place to reach her?

Only after answering did she find out it was Shao Huade. ”Old Chief, what’s the matter?”

Shao Huade glanced at Zhou Changchun, who listened anxiously beside him, and sighed inwardly.

”Xiao Su, are you coming this year?”

”I’m going, but I won’t go to the sanatorium anymore.”

Shao Huade was taken aback, ”Xiao Su, if you’re not coming over, I’ll tell you directly over the phone.”

”Old Chief, what’s the matter?”

”Xiao Su, it’s about the Zhou Family.”

”Old Chief, I’ve never paid attention to this issue. Someone in their family approached me, but I didn’t ask. How should I put it? Want me to forgive them? But is it because of my issue? If it was just because of me, this wouldn’t drag on for so long, would it?

If it’s due to something else, I wonder, do I have that ability? Also, why should I?”

Shao Huade didn’t know what to say then. He knew the outcome of the call would be fruitless.

”Xiao Su, then I won’t talk anymore.” The Zhou Family really brought this upon themselves. If they were truly clean, reporting would be fine. Now they’re involved in so many things; who knows what they were thinking at the beginning.

”Old Chief, I am still studying; sorry.” After Su Yuanyuan hung up the phone, she didn’t even hold this matter in her heart.

She believes Zhou Yongheng was surely investigated due to reporting her. But if he had no issues, he wouldn’t be arrested for several months now.

Even she doesn’t truly have that kind of power. Actually, they all misunderstood; even if she forgave him now, he wouldn’t be released, and the Zhou Family wouldn’t be absolved.

She wonders why they haven’t realized this.

Shao Huade put down the phone and looked at Zhou Changchun, ”You saw and heard it too. Things are not as simple as you think. Your grandson has said too much inside. Now it’s not about forgiveness.”

Zhou Changchun’s eyes had turned red. His heart loathes his grandson’s incompetence, but even more, he is utterly resentful towards Su Yuanyuan.

”The Zhou Family is over.”

Shao Huade knows his sorrow, but there is no way now.

”Why did you file a complaint against Xiao Su in the beginning? Don’t tell me Eternal wanted to do this.”

”I just disliked her manner. No respect for hierarchy, looking down on everyone.”

”Just because of that?”

”Yes, just because of that. I really got angry just seeing her.”

”Well, rather than venting your anger, you’ve implicated what you care about the most.”

”How would I know that the higher-ups would favor her like this? Just because she saved them? Couldn’t what I have now be purchased with blood and sweat? Would they choose to abandon me just for someone like that?”

Zhou Changchun feels dissatisfaction; why? When he risked life and limb, she wasn’t even there.

”You are always like this. Just because of this, your family members will not be heavily relied upon. You think too highly of yourself, unable to recognize your position.”

Shao Huade felt he had done all he could today. Said everything that should or shouldn’t be said. As for how Zhou Changchun perceives it, he can’t control.

”Now, everything is ruined. My lifetime’s effort, what I exchanged my life for, is all gone.” Zhou Changchun was dealt a blow.

Shao Huade didn’t know how to console him; this person still hadn’t come to terms with it. Actually, as far as he knew, the Zhou Family wouldn’t have too severe a problem, meaning the people wouldn’t have issues, but wanting to stand firm above, that’s impossible.

Nonetheless, it’s no big deal. The next two generations of the Zhou Family are inadequate. Outsiders think the only capable child in the Zhou Family is someone whose vision is too narrow.

It would be better to retreat and wholeheartedly nurture the younger generation. Is it not possible to rise again?

But still, with such greedy hearts, committing untimely actions, they won’t fare well.

Now, these few of them should simply behave honestly. If they can’t accept it, it’s their own issue.

”I’m unwilling, unwilling.”

”Why are you unwilling? If you weren’t harmful from the start, would there be now?”

Zhou Changchun’s age has caught up; his body, due to numerous injuries in youth, is not good now.

Now due to intense emotions, his face has lost all color.

”Old Zhou, can I speak frankly, will you listen?”

Zhou Changchun was still immersed in his anger. Shao Huade, seeing him this way, shook his head, ”Old Zhou, does your Zhou Family have someone from two generations worthy of the stage? I reckon you won’t have a problem, but shouldn’t you hide your light and wholeheartedly educate the next generation?

Your glory, the shelter you’ve given to the kids, is already enough; henceforth, it’ll depend entirely on their own efforts.”

”I’m unwilling.”

”Then what difference does it make? How many years do you have left? What can you do? If you perish, who is qualified below; what can you do?

Old Zhou, open up your thoughts, it’s better for you, and for the future.”

Upon finishing, Shao Huade sighed, he himself had come from times of injustice. Now he had figured it out. Only then did he realize his previous thinking was flawed.

”Could it just end this way?”

”What can you do? Even if now, you made Zhou Family completely issue-free, could they hold on after you died? Will you not listen no matter how it’s said?”

Zhou Changchun seemed like a deflated balloon; dreadful to behold.

The two elderly sat in the living room just like that. Both minds wandered over the past and the future.

After over an hour, Zhou Changchun finally got up. ”Old Shao, thank you, I’ve figured it out. I was too persistent.”

”It’s good if you can understand.”

At this moment, Zhou Changchun’s guard approached, supporting him out.

Shao Huade picked up the phone and called Shao Hongming.

He was anxious, worrying Xiao Su might bear a grudge against them because of this matter.

”I really had no choice, feeling uneasy, so I called Su Yuanyuan.”

Shao Hongming just made a light ’hmm’ sound; right or wrong couldn’t be discerned in this situation, anyway, the call had been made, no use in discussing further.

However, Zhou Yongheng truly is petty, for someone like him, at any hint of a problem caught, due to his mindset, there may be greater mistakes in the future,
