Rebirth in Famine: She Thrives by Lucky Space

Chapter 1027: Unwilling to Give Up

After the two finished lunch, they went back to rest. Song Yanling kept pondering Secretary Wu’s words, and Wei Kaiyun’s figure appeared in her mind.She is very conflicted right now. She likes capable men, and Wei Kaiyun really meets her requirements for a man; good looks, good physique, capable, and talented.

Although he is older and has a family, she believes that if they were to start a family, they would definitely harmonize like a loving couple with shared interests.

But even if she wants to lower herself and be with him, this man simply doesn’t want to have any contact with her. It’s really frustrating.

Song Yanling doesn’t know what to do. To let go is something she is really unwilling to consider.

Ever since she returned last time, she hasn’t been able to forget him and even considered finding an opportunity to visit him. Unexpectedly, he achieved something honorable again this time, with direct meetings from leaders and coverage in the national People’s Daily.

This is supreme glory. She finally has another chance to meet him again, but just like before, he remains cold and aloof towards her, which is really disheartening.

Letting go is impossible for her. This time, she’ll go along and try to seize the opportunity because otherwise, she’d regret it for the rest of her life.

Wei Kaiyun doesn’t care what others think. He is now packing all his luggage. Having bought too many things, one briefcase isn’t enough to fit everything, luckily his wife brought him a snakeskin bag.

Having packed everything, it’s not too much, carrying the bag and the briefcase poses no problem for him.

He’s been checking the time, hoping Li Yunqiao returns quickly, but he doesn’t want to miss the train. Should Li Yunqiao not come back by the time, he’d head home first.

Wei Kaiyun is really eager to go home now. He just wants to get home as soon as possible.

He’s concerned about his wife; this Mai Qiu season is the most exhausting, and with her character, she surely wouldn’t slack off.

Wei Kaiyun kept an eye on the external commotion. Only hearing Li Yunqiao’s voice did he feel assured.

Not long after, his room door was knocked on.

"Vice Mayor Li, you finally returned. I was afraid you’d delay the train today.

I was even thinking, if you couldn’t make it, I’d head back alone."

"You’re in such a hurry?"

"How could I not be rushed? Mai Qiu is so exhausting; I’m sure my wife is determined to finish it all. I’m afraid her health won’t hold up."

Song Yanling entered just in time to hear this sentence, feeling so jealous she was nearly going mad.

"Of course, I’ll head back today. However, once back, I’ll immediately send over a truckload of pesticides and a truckload of sprayers.

The corn shaking machine needs to be sent over right after."

"Understood, I’ll rush back to supervise production."

Wei Kaiyun felt relieved at this. Finally, he could go home.

"Comrade Song, what brings you here?"

"Vice Mayor Li, I’ve requested to go back with you all; I feel experiencing Mr. Wei’s life will lead to more vivid and inspiring reports."

Li Yunqiao understands what’s going on. He relates to Wei Kaiyun, having once greatly disliked such situations in his youth.

But since she’s working under the pretense of her job, he can only welcome her. Can he actually refuse?

"Then we’re happy to have Comrade Song visit us again. Secretary Wu, have you got the tickets?"

"Leader, I’ve bought three sleeper tickets and another separate sleeper ticket."

"Haha, that’s not a problem; we two are older, we can stay with Comrade Song, and let Xiao Wei ride in another compartment."

"Vice Mayor Li, your idea isn’t quite right, as I actually want to take this opportunity to interact more and chat with Mr. Wei."

Now Li Yunqiao has no alternative. He wanted to help Wei Kaiyun dodge this, but her reasons are validly pursuing.

Li Yunqiao chuckled. "Secretary Wu, what time’s the train?"

"Quarter past four in the afternoon."

"Alright, over an hour left, we’ll depart soon."

Li Yunqiao and Secretary Wu left together. Song Yanling originally planned to stay back and chat with Wei Kaiyun.

"Comrade Song, there’s over an hour before departure, sorry, I need some time for toiletries."

Song Yanling had no choice but to leave. He’s already subtly asked her to go, the colder Wei Kaiyun acts, the firmer Song Yanling’s resolve becomes to win him over.

Once everyone finished their showers, the four checked out and left.

Secretary Wu looked at Wei Kaiyun and smiled; this handsome man, even carrying a snakeskin bag, was still handsome.

"Secretary Wu, you go buy some snacks in the building since Comrade Song is a woman, let her have something to eat along the way."

"Thank you, Vice Mayor Li. I don’t like sweets."

As she refused, Li Yunqiao smiled. The remark was merely polite as he hadn’t bought any snacks for his wife and kids either. Only bought fabric and shoes for his wife; nothing else, not even for Comrade Song, who wouldn’t be informed of such.

Taking twenty minutes, they reached the station.

"Vice Mayor Li, I’ll go purchase platform tickets for easier boarding."

"Xiao Wei, I can do that." Secretary Wu replied smiling.

The four entered the platform and Wei Kaiyun asked the station staff, learned the location, and directly went to wait there.

Li Yunqiao watched Wei Kaiyun’s actions, chuckling, "Xiao Wei is really in a hurry."

"Isn’t he just? Farmers are naturally anxious about harvest time." Secretary Wu now greatly admired Wei Kaiyun.

Wei Kaiyun drank a sip of water, "This year’s certainly a bumper harvest, Village Chief Li’s influence is limited, I bet Village Chief Wang will come over to borrow harvesters. Our village will be even more tired then."

"Xiao Wei, I’ve gone through your records, previously they were all your achievements at the textile mill, now it’s your research and inventions.

I think you could be a scientist in the future."

Wei Kaiyun chuckled at Li Yunqiao’s remark, which further amazed Song Yanling watching from the side.

"Scientist? With my limited knowledge? I simply don’t want my family to wear out, hence the idea of creating tools for easing work."

"That’s a genuine sentiment." Li Yunqiao also chuckled.

"Xiao Wei, you’ve brought quite a few things for home?"

"Comic books for the children, floral fabric for my daughter, materials for the boys, toiletries; with my large family, it looks like a lot."

"Haha, you always take gifts back for the kids."

"Indeed, I owe them a lot since childhood, not fulfilling my duties as a father."

"The compensation mindset." Li Yunqiao understood.
