Chapter 17: Chapter 17 Male Supporting Character Shen Haoze Chapter 17: Chapter 17 Male Supporting Character Shen Haoze Qiao Zhiyuan felt a pang of distress that Qiao Qingyu had spent so much money, because it must have been given by He Xiuyu. To spend it seed to lack backbone, yet not spending it, after having bought and eaten, what could be done?
Thankfully, the old Qiao Family had prepared a dowry fund for Qiao Qingyu long ago.
Qiao Zhiyuan gave Qiao Qingyu a red paper-wrapped packet, containing 200 yuan, and said with so sadness, “This is a token of affection from us, the elders. Life at ho isn’t easy, so if you ever run into difficulties, just call your uncle…”
Qiao Qingyu hesitated for a mont but still accepted it. Reluctantly, she saw her uncle and the rest off onto the truck. Watching as their truck disappeared from sight, she then boarded the base’s vehicle and headed for the experintal base.
The journey was silent, and in just over two hours, she arrived at the base.
The logistics head of the base had been waiting here for more than an hour, having already received a call from Director Zhao ahead of ti.
Although he was surprised, it wasn’t entirely unexpected.
It was quite normal for Qiao Qingyu’s uncle to co to Xichuan on business and bring her so vegetable seeds, considering they lived in one of the country’s most important grain-producing areas and a major national granary.
What was unexpected was Qiao Qingyu’s awareness of the situation. So, upon seeing her alight from the vehicle, he promptly expressed his gratitude. Matter of factly, Qiao Qingyu had done them a great favor.
After fifty glass jars filled with cabbage seeds were taken out of the truck, the logistics head felt even more confident.
“Director Xie, cabbage cultivation is very simple. But mixing so wood ash into the soil will make the cabbages grow faster.”
“Are there any other requirents?” Director Xie asked humbly.
“It’s just like planting ordinary cabbages. This type of cabbage grows quickly; in half a month, it can reach thirty centiters with about eight or nine leaves, and at that point, it’s ready to eat.”
Director Xie nodded repeatedly, emotively saying, “These seeds can cover forty-five mu. This will solve the base’s vegetable problems instantly. Comrade Qiao Qingyu, I truly can’t thank you enough!”
“Director Xie, I’m also a mber of the base, so there’s no need for formalities. By the way, it’s important to save so seeds from the cabbage as well.”
“Yes, of course, we’ll save so. We have experienced comrades at the base who will surely select the best for seed preservation. Also, once planted, I’ll have the bottles sent back to you,” Director Xie said cheerfully.
Qiao Qingyu smiled, “Director Xie, if there’s nothing else, I should be going back.”
Director Xie seed to rember sothing, hesitated for a mont, but still spoke up, “Comrade Qiao Qingyu, Shen Haoze is waiting for you at the residential quarters. He wants to talk to you about Liu Qiao Wen.”
“Understood,” she replied.
Qiao Qingyu didn’t ask any superfluous questions, easing Director Xie’s mind. Everyone said that He Xiuyu’s wife was a shrew, who loved nothing more than crying, causing scenes, and threatening suicide. Now, seeing her, it was clear that soone must have been jealous and slandered her.
What a fine young lady she was, noble in deed and courteous in speech.
He well knew that the many young won at the base admired the young, handso, and promising He Xiuyu.
Ah, being Mr. He’s wife was surely not easy.
Director Xie still instructed Driver Xiao Chen from the base to take Qiao Qingyu back.
The newly built road was close to the residential quarters; it took just over twenty minutes to arrive. Electric lights had been installed, and at this ti of night, the quarters were still brightly lit.
Shen Haoze and the others were at the brigade headquarters.
At the mont, quite a few people were sitting in the brigade headquarters.
Xiao Hu, with a small wooden rifle hanging on his chest, was glaring at Shen Haoze. Suddenly, seeing Qiao Qingyu push the door and enter, his eyes flickered with delight. He hurried to tattle, “Aunt Qiao, Aunt Qiao, it’s this guy here, trying your door when you weren’t ho, pushing really hard. If Jianguo and I hadn’t been watching, he might have jumped in!”
Sister-in-law Li quickly pulled Xiao Hu over, a bit embarrassed, “Mr. Shen, Xiao Hu is just a child, please don’t take it to heart.”
Shen Haoze smiled slightly, “No harm done, Xiao Hu is very alert, a good kid.”
Qiao Qingyu reached out and patted Xiao Hu on the head, praising him, “Xiao Hu is so brave, Aunt Qiao has bought you so treats. I’ll give them to you when you go ho, okay?”
At the ntion of treats, Xiao Hu’s eyes brightened, and he stood a little straighter, clutching his little wooden rifle.
Qiao Qingyu’s serene gaze then swept over the young man in front of her with a refined and genteel appearance.
He was the male supporting character Shen Haoze from the book.
Although he had only t her briefly, Qiao Qingyu’s mory was good, especially since the original owner of her body had a fondness for He Xiuyu, she naturally rembered Shen Haoze, who was He Xiuyu’s best friend.
His love for Su Yunyao was deep.
Put simply, it was the kind where he loved her, and she loved him.
But what was eerie was that such a relationship didn’t affect the friendship between Shen Haoze and He Xiuyu at all. Later, when an explosion occurred in the laboratory, Shen Haoze sacrificed his young life to save He Xiuyu.
Shen Haoze was tall and slender, refined and handso, with fair skin. His whole presence radiated a strong scholarly aura, and it was said that going back three generations, the Shen family boasted of producing a top scholar.
A true family of scholars and literati.
Qiao Qingyu gave him a friendly smile.
Shen Haoze glanced at Qiao Qingyu indifferently through his glasses and barely nodded.
Basic politeness had to be maintained, but he really detested this woman.
He despised how she had unscrupulously destroyed He Xiuyu’s life, loathed her ability to cause trouble and create drama.
He detested even more how she had called security to report without discussing it with He Xiuyu.
She was a woman both ignorant and foolish, and yet overestimated herself.
Nothing about her was redeemable!
Sigh, no matter how one looked at her, she was dislikeable!
Qiao Qingyu slowly retracted her smile, but the cheerfulness no longer reached her eyes.
She wasn’t a fool, of course, she sensed Shen Haoze’s intense suppressed revulsion right away.
She kept silent, waiting for the person who could speak first to open their mouth.
The room fell silent.
Liu Qiao Wen, standing in a corner, kept her head down, alongside her was Su Yunyao, whose eyes were full of scorn.
Shen Haoze took a deep breath. Even though he exhaled, his chest still felt stuffy.
He was very busy, with so many things waiting for him to deal with, yet here he was wasting his ti.
Just as he was about to speak, Director Shen, who was beside him, said, “Little Shen, you guys discuss your business here, we’ll go to the next room.”
Shen Haoze nodded, his voice gentle, “Thank you, Sister Shen.”
Shen Fen’s brows twitched, she looked at Qiao Qingyu, and instructed softly, “Comrade Qiao Qingyu, you’ve done well, don’t feel burdened or pressured, Sister-in-law Li and I will wait for you outside.”
The call from Qiao Qingyu had been made at her place. At the ti, she was shocked and unbelieving.
But today, the facts were laid out before her, leaving no room for doubt.
Therefore, she harbored deep hatred for Liu Qiao Wen, who had tried to curry favor with ng Siqi by finding a job for her own brother.
Moreover, it was clear that Liu Qiao Wen had intentionally guided Qiao Qingyu towards making mistakes.
The idea to threaten He Xiuyu with a hanging was sothing she had taught Qiao Qingyu.
Ambition as clear as day.
This, even more hateful!
