Chapter 658: 658 requirements
Everyone else in the Daoist temple also came out. Hu Zi looked around but didn’t discover any unusual behavior.
"Hu Zi, here’s some quick hemostatic ointment that the Daoist priest here gave us. Arrange for someone to study it. Take it back with you and have it improved."
Hu Zi nodded with a smile; the sister-in-law is always thinking about them, no matter the situation.
Yuanyuan wanted to tidy up the room, but Hu Zi refused.
"Xiao Su, I’m heading back tomorrow. Don’t bother. I will just squeeze in with two comrades."
Honestly, according to their usual behavior, they would just take one look at Su Yuanyuan and leave.
But this time, he stayed because they hadn’t heard any news from the sister-in-law for a long time. Mainly because there were two men, and frankly, the six of them felt very conflicted.
Currently, the leader’s fate is unknown, but they don’t want to admit he is dead. But a tornado happened at sea, and it’s been over a year, with virtually no chance of survival.
They all know the sister-in-law is excellent, so it’s normal for someone to like her. Emotionally, they’re torn—on one hand, they don’t want the sister-in-law to find another man, on the other hand, they want her to move on from her grief. To have someone care for her in her later years.
Hu Zi and Su Yuanyuan returned to the room. "Sister-in-law, here’s your letter; I brought it for you.
I threw away the envelope, couldn’t have an address, but I didn’t read the contents.
These two letters were both from the same person."
Su Yuanyuan took the letters and laid them on the table, "I know."
Hu Zi took out paper and a pen from his bag and wrote down the address. "Xiao Su, here’s the address for sending the letter."
They couldn’t leave any evidence, and no one could guarantee the success of such missions. If something unexpected happens, it could bring danger to the address on the other side. It would also expose a lot, so during missions, they wouldn’t carry anything with writing. Hu Zi broke the rules this time.
"How’s everyone doing?"
"Everyone’s doing fine. This year’s missions are even more numerous; I won’t be returning directly, there are two more tasks to complete on the way."
"Be careful."
"We all know. Xiao Su, is there anything you need me to do?"
Su Yuanyuan shook her head. They’re so busy; she wouldn’t trouble them further.
Hu Zi was very satisfied with dinner. This place is really nice. Sister-in-law really knows how to choose.
At night, he chatted with Zeng Yixin and Wei Guangxiang and learned about their general situation.
In his heart, Hu Zi thought, those two are not a match for the sister-in-law. Someone like her wouldn’t take a liking to them.
Now he felt assured. Indeed, how many people in this world could compare with the leader?
At night, Su Yuanyuan looked at the letters. She realized that they were from her past friends. From the words, their relationship seemed close.
But she didn’t recognize them! Forget it, she’d write a letter and let Hu Zi send it back.
Zhao Yanli was also anxious at home, waiting and waiting but never receiving a reply from Yuanyuan.
"Alright, stop thinking like this. Su Yuanyuan probably hasn’t received the letter yet. Why are you so anxious? Think of the child in your belly." Zhou Yongbing hurriedly comforted his wife.
"It’s impossible she hasn’t received it, it’s long arrived. Could something have happened to Yuanyuan?"
"How could that be? Who is Su Yuanyuan? How could anything happen to her? Just be patient. Maybe she’s gone out somewhere and isn’t home."
Zhao Yanli was still worried in her heart, constantly comforting herself. The last time Yuanyuan moved, she also didn’t receive her letter. Her husband was right, who is Yuanyuan? How could anything happen?
Zhou Yongbing finally sighed in relief seeing his wife calm down. She was five months pregnant, and being so anxious every day wasn’t good.
The next day, Su Yuanyuan handed a piece of paper to Hu Zi, "Take this letter back to the Capital and send it out. I can’t leave the address here; who knows, I might leave here soon."
"Alright, I’ll send it back when I return. Xiao Su, if you go somewhere else, make sure to call and let us know."
Su Yuanyuan nodded. She knew they really cared about her, although it was because of that man. But she truly felt their genuine concern.
After seeing Hu Zi off, Su Yuanyuan went back to the study again.
She wanted to find some paranormal introductions, but really couldn’t.
She found that she had an excellent memory. She could almost remember everything in a book after one read. Thinking if she had such a mind in a past life, she would have certainly become a Champion Scholar.
Today’s lunch was made by Wei Guangxiang. "Your cooking skills are really good." Zeng Hongling complimented him while eating.
"As long as you guys find it tasty, that’s fine."
Su Yuanyuan also thought the taste was quite good. A big man cooks even better than they do. It seems men here aren’t just doing nothing.
After lunch, she didn’t rest but went to the study.
She was currently reading the Sect’s introduction, thinking it might be exaggerated.
At this moment, Zhan Yunzhao came in.
Su Yuanyuan just glanced at him and continued reading, treating it as a fantasy novel.
"Friend, do you have some time to chat?"
Su Yuanyuan put down the book and looked up at Zhan Yunzhao. "Daoist Zhan, what’s the matter?"
"Friend, if I may ask, when are you planning to leave here?"
Su Yuanyuan shook her head, "I don’t know yet, I haven’t decided. Probably won’t be here to celebrate the New Year."
"Friend, could I accompany you on your journey?
Isn’t it said that reading ten thousand books is not as good as traveling ten thousand miles? Since I came up the mountain, I rarely go down, and I’m not familiar with the outside. Traveling with you, I’d probably see many things I’ve never seen before."
"Daoist Zhan, it’s not that I refuse. I just don’t have a specific location. I haven’t decided where to go."
"Wherever you go, I’ll follow. I want to see the outside world too."
Su Yuanyuan didn’t know how to ask or how to refuse. In the end, she agreed. With so many people following her, one more wouldn’t matter. Fine then.
Zhan Yunzhao was delighted when Su Yuanyuan agreed. His smile, if seen by Zeng Hongling, would surely make her swoon. It didn’t suit someone over forty.
The person finally left. Su Yuanyuan continued reading.
After descending the mountain, Hu Zi went to the government. He called Zhang Chunsheng to report.
"How is Su Yuanyuan?"
"I think she’s much better than before. Her mood seems pretty good, and this place is really quite nice. Plus, sister-in-law got us the quick hemostatic ointment and formula. I’m bringing it back this time."
"Alright, be careful on the way. The other two tasks aren’t difficult."
