Reborn with a Space: Building a Fortune Amidst Famine

Chapter 488: 488 Conscience



In a foreign land, Su Yuanyuan felt quite at ease. Every day, she took the kids around.

The three little ones really liked the amusement park here. So they went there every day.

Tan Shaoting hadn't shown up since they arrived here.

The kids asked about him every day, and they were quite disappointed when he didn't return.

Actually, Tan Shaoting wasn't really with the leader now. There was a task here.

He still had one last task, and it wasn't too difficult.

Having collected the information he needed, he hurried back.

He went out every night. Seeing him return, those who knew felt relieved.

"Xiao Tan, very well done."

Tan Shaoting just nodded. He missed his wife and kids, but he knew he couldn't leave to see them.

"Go see your wife and children."

Tan Shaoting turned and left. To be honest, now that the task was completed, there was nothing much for him to do. He would just be in charge of security from now on.

He gently knocked on the door, and the sleeping Su Yuanyuan suddenly opened her eyes. Knowing it was Tan Shaoting outside, she finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Tan Shaoting stepped into the room and immediately hugged Su Yuanyuan, kissing her fervently.

The couple hadn't seen each other for nearly twenty days.

Su Yuanyuan missed him too, so she responded passionately.

Afterwards, Tan Shaoting stopped Su Yuanyuan from getting dressed, holding her like that.

"I'm alright now, from now on I only need to be responsible for security."

How could he not know his wife was worried about him? Although he couldn't say much, he could still give her some reassurance.

"That's good, but you still won't have time to be with the kids, right?"

"Yes, still no time. I need to be with the leader at all times."

"Then be careful."

"How have you been?"

"Not bad. The kids have already experienced the local characteristics here and collected some books."

"Be careful."

"No problem. When will you leave?"

"Probably in a few days. The leader has some friends here and needs to meet some local Chinese."

Tan Shaoting never stopped holding Su Yuanyuan, embracing her once again.

After another moment, he held Su Yuanyuan, and they took a shower together, then lay quietly side by side.

"Yuanyuan, I have to go."

"Be careful."

"Don't worry, I know what I'm doing."

Tan Shaoting got up, kissed the three kids, and then turned to leave.

Su Yuanyuan was unable to fall asleep now. Tan Shaoting's mood was off. She thought about it and understood. It might be that this task made him unwilling, unable to get over it in his heart.

The next day, when the kids woke up, the four of them went out to eat. The kids had fallen in love with a fried chicken place and insisted on going there for breakfast again.

"Mom, aside from fried chicken, I don't like their food."

"Dietary habits."

"Mom, do you think they eat like this every day without getting tired of it?"

"Hmm, I think they might. But just like you eat rice all the time, you might not want it at some point."

The four of them ate fried chicken and burgers.

Su Yuanyuan hadn't liked cola much before, but after drinking it here for a few days, she found it okay.

The four of them had bought a lot of things. They knew they were about to leave soon. So their eyes turned to the library once more.

Truth be told, Shen Zhigang had been waiting for the four of them at the library.

It wasn't that he didn't know where the people from home were staying, but he really couldn't go there.

Their lives here weren't as outsiders imagined. They were restricted in many ways, especially people like him.

He spent every day at the library, just hoping to see them again.

But it was really difficult here. They couldn't wait for them.

Ever since their last meeting, that woman's words had echoed in his mind. Yes, in the eyes of the countrymen, he was a traitor now.

Indeed, he had taken the wrong path. Though he didn't know how his classmates fared after returning, he knew it wouldn't be easy. But they must stand tall, unlike him, right?

He thought for a whole night and decided to violate his moral bottom line. Even if in the eyes of the countrymen he was a traitor, he had to contribute a little to his country.

He had heard about the people who came this time; they were all people of status. Even if they were women and children, they were not ordinary people.

He had thought about contacting those in charge, but they were all being monitored. And he felt he was even more under surveillance, since they were Chinese.

So he still thought this mother and her children were the most likely to fulfill his wish.

Su Yuanyuan arrived at the library, and she recognized that day's person.

She didn't like people like him, but it was their choice. She couldn't judge them, nor did she have the right to.

The kids had been here for almost ten days, experiencing a lot. This time at the library, they were purposefully looking for books.

Su Yuanyuan didn't join them. She let them handle it themselves while she focused on overseeing them and picking some books herself.

This time, the focus was on magazines and such, which would serve as a cover for when they returned, as taking such books should be fine.

From the moment they entered, Shen Zhigang slowly moved towards that woman's direction.

Luckily, that woman wasn't chasing after the children, otherwise, it would have been difficult to "accidentally" meet.

Su Yuanyuan felt the person intentionally approaching her.

Although she didn't like him, being abroad, after all, he was still of her ethnicity.

So she endured and waited.

Suddenly, she saw a foreigner striking up a conversation with Qi Wen over there.

Su Yuanyuan put down her open book and hurried over.

It turned out a young man was chatting with Qi Wen.

"Mom."

Su Yuanyuan quickly walked to her daughter's side.

"Qi Wen."

"Mom, I've selected what I need here."

"Alright, accompany mom to choose a few books."

George looked disappointed at the departing delicate angel. He was reading a book when he suddenly noticed an unbelievably beautiful angel. He had never seen such a beauty, so he approached.

But before he could speak, she had already left.

However, this sister was incredibly beautiful, very much alike.

Could they be Orientals? Unconsciously, he followed them, but when he saw the sister watching him warily, he gave a wry smile and stopped.

Su Yuanyuan took her daughter back to the bookshelf where she was choosing books earlier.

At this point, Shen Zhigang also came over. He brushed past Su Yuanyuan, avoiding the staff, and slipped the notebook in his hand into hers, and then walked away without looking back.

Su Yuanyuan had actually realized he wanted to give her something, that's why she brushed past him.
