Reborn with a Space: Building a Fortune Amidst Famine

Chapter 525: 525 caught



At this moment, Zhang Chunsheng came over with his men and saw the woman standing stiffly in front of him.

Once a beautiful, elegant woman, she now looked like a withered flower.

But she still stood so upright. Definitely giving off an air of non-conformity.

"Xiao Su."

"That person is mine."

Zhang Chunsheng had already seen Hou Wanzhong on the ground.

"Xiao Su, you know that's impossible."

"Nothing is impossible.

Hu Zi, take him home. Leave the rest to me."

"Big sister-in-law. I'll stay with you. Daqing and the others can manage."

"Big sister-in-law, don't worry, no one can take him from the four of us, I guarantee."

"Alright."

Zhang Chunsheng was indeed in a dilemma. He had over twenty people with him, but none of them moved; they just watched as Daqing and his group lifted the person as if lifting a dead dog.

"Xiao Su."

"I won't make things difficult for you; I'll go back with you."

"Xiao Su, you know this won't work."

"There's nothing that won't work; if you don't believe it, just wait and see if I can do it.

Let's go. If it weren't for us, they would have fled long ago.

With these six people, I have more questions to ask."

Zhang Chunsheng watched as Daqing and the others drove off, helplessly sighing.

He was deeply troubled. Tan Shaoting was someone he had brought up. She considered herself a friend of his, always thinking of those three adorable children.

Zhang Chunsheng sighed again. "Alright. Xiao Su, you must take care of yourself."

"Until I find Tan Shaoting, nothing will happen to me."

Hu Zi drove, and Yuanyuan sat in the backseat. He followed the car in front. As for the aftermath here, it was none of their concern.

Zhang Chunsheng also sat in the back seat of another car, pinching his brow.

What to do? How to explain? Seeing Yuanyuan's stance, even with Hou Wanzhong in her hands, it was not enough.

This is going to stir up a bloody storm. He envied Tan Shaoting; after his incident, such a woman was willing to disregard everything for him.

This is something every man dreams of, but only someone as fortunate as Tan Shaoting could have such luck.

The car drove straight into the courtyard, although it was not where the top leaders worked.

Hu Zi got out of the car, followed by Yuanyuan.

"Hu Zi, hand over everything that can be considered a weapon."

"Okay, big sister-in-law."

Zhang Chunsheng said nothing. He knew Yuanyuan did not want to make things difficult for him. Because of this, he would help her, even though he did not have the qualifications to see the top leaders now.

But he could assist her in other ways. This woman was too pitiful.

He could still remember the time when she laughed so freely.

"I need to call Leader Zeng."

"Okay."

Zeng Zhenqing was not surprised to receive Yuanyuan's call, after all, he knew she took people to find Hou Wanzhong. Although they hadn't met, he knew that Xiao Su would not let Hou Wanzhong go.

"Leader, this person must be in my hands."

"Xiao Su, I can't make that decision; wait for my news."

"Mm, he is already in my custody, and I've taken him away."

Zeng Zhenqing understood. "Xiao Su, I will apply immediately."

Yuanyuan hung up the phone, seeing Zhang Chunsheng looking at her worriedly.

"Xiao Su, go bathe and change clothes. If you need to see the top leaders?"

"That's fine too."

She didn't want others to pity her. There was no need, it was just a waiting period. So there was time.

Hu Zi felt relieved seeing his big sister-in-law like this.

Yuanyuan retrieved her belongings from the car, which had a change of clothes.

She moved quickly, and after changing clothes, she just sat waiting for news.

Meanwhile, Zeng Zhenqing, after hanging up, went directly to the leaders' office.

The leader listened to Zeng Zhenqing for a long time without speaking.

"No, but she can see him anytime. Grant her a special permit."

"Leader, is there no other way?"

This was the first time Zeng Zhenqing went against the leader's wishes.

"After all, he has done meritorious service."

"But he's already been taken by Xiao Su."

The office fell silent. This meant that without Xiao Su, the person would have fled.

Zeng Zhenqing was also troubled, having no choice. The woman directly took the person but fortunately stayed behind.

After a long time, the leader sighed, "We can't let him die."

"Leader, I will inform Xiao Su."

"She is a capable person too."

"I've always thought she's better than Xiao Tan."

The leader sighed again, caught in a dilemma. He didn't feel threatened, just a sense of shared mortality.

"Go make the arrangements."

"Yes, I understand, Leader, some things cannot be taken lightly."

The leader waved his hand dismissively. He said nothing further.

Zeng Zhenqing understood it as 'fine'.

He returned to his office and called Zhang Chunsheng.

"Xiao Su, the higher-ups have agreed, but they said he must not be allowed to die."

"I haven't thought about doing that yet."

Zeng Zhenqing sighed, "Xiao Su, you?"

"Leader, thank you for mediating this issue."

Zeng Zhenqing felt a bit of warmth in his heart, "I watched Xiao Tan grow up."

Yuanyuan said no more. Sometimes she wondered, what if she and Tan Shaoting were still farming? What would life be like?

Life certainly wouldn't be worse than now. They would still have half the time to rest as a family.

After hanging up the phone, Yuanyuan asked Hu Zi to leave.

"Xiao Su, if you need anything, you can come to me."

Yuanyuan didn't turn her head, just nodded.

She hadn't yet decided what to do next. The final end for Hou Wanzhong was definitely death, but she felt lost.

Sitting in the car, Hu Zi hesitated to speak, and Yuanyuan ignored him.

She figured it out. Her goal should be to find Tan Shaoting, but what other way was there? She planned to try again on August 15. If not, wait until next July 15. Anyway, she wouldn't give up now.

Moreover, so much time had passed, and Yuanyuan hadn't felt any more palpitations, guessing that Tan Shaoting probably wasn't in mortal danger.

It's just that she wasn't sure of her feelings now. She knew she shouldn't always expect the best, but if not, she felt she couldn't hold on. Hu Zi drove to the garrison.

"Sister-in-law."

"Just take me home."

"Alright."

Yuanyuan walked into her house, looking at everything familiar, yet without the familiar people.

Her three children. And the man who loved her. They were all gone, and now she was left alone here.

This was the greatest malice against her. A malice she could not bear.
