Chapter 445: Chapter 445: Prophecy? Chapter 445: Chapter 445: Prophecy? Shen Haoze took a few steps forward, but then hurriedly stopped.
It was hard to explain what he felt at that mont; all he knew was that he needed to rush back to his dormitory.
The next day, he had intended to discuss things with Su Yunyao. Although they had both sobered up the day before, there was a chance that Su Yunyao had only acted on impulse the previous night, and if he were to submit a marriage report today, it would be incredibly awkward.
However, to his surprise, Su Yunyao took matters into her own hands and submitted the marriage report without asking him.
Confronted with He Xiuyu’s surprised gaze, Shen Haoze could only blush, grit his teeth, and admit it.
In reality, it had only been two days, but to him, it felt as long as several lifetis.
There was no order to the questions that should or shouldn’t be asked. Indeed, as Su Yunyao said, the world now was completely different from the one in her mory, and the direction of future developnt was bound to be different. These changes truly weren’t brought about by Su Yuyao, so who was responsible? He didn’t want to say, and it seed Su Yunyao didn’t care to ntion it either.
But none of that was important. What mattered was how he was going to explain all this to He Xiuyu.
Like right now, he felt no embarrassnt in telling He Xiuyu about his marriage to Su Yunyao. After all, over the years, it turned out that his relationship with Yunyao had grown stronger among the three of them, while He Xiuyu and Su Yunyao always kept a certain distance, which deepened over ti.
He said to He Xiuyu, “We’re planning to gather our colleagues, buy so sunflower seeds and candy to celebrate, and then ask for a week’s leave for the Spring Festival.”
“Have you talked to your uncle and aunt?” asked He Xiuyu.
“The report hasn’t been approved yet, so I haven’t ntioned it.”
“What about Su Yunyao?”
“… She hasn’t said anything either.”
The wind had stopped, but the weather was sowhat overcast, and the land was covered in a vast whiteness; it finally looked like winter in the Northwest.
Otherwise, it was just barren grass and leafless trees, looking desolate no matter where you looked.
He Xiuyu looked at Shen Haoze and said, “Marriage is no child’s play.”
“I know,” Shen Haoze responded.
He Xiuyu thought that Shen Haoze had always cared for Su Yunyao, and this past year, she beca much more low-profile and stopped speaking her strange thoughts, showing less enthusiasm towards him than before.
He Xiuyu coughed lightly and said, “Lead a good life.”
This was the best blessing he could offer his good friend. Anything else might seem inappropriate.
Then Shen Haoze rembered what had happened on New Year’s Eve and asked He Xiuyu, “What are your plans for the Spring Festival this year?”
“We’re not planning to go ho for the festival this year.”
Shen Haoze thought for a mont; there were still more than three weeks left until that day. He slightly furrowed his brows, realizing he shouldn’t go back.
“Let’s postpone our holiday then. We can go back ho after the 15th day of the first lunar month.”
“That will depend on the arrangents of both families. With the Spring Festival break, they could help out with the wedding.”
“The wedding should be as simple as possible without too much hassle. Just gathering both families together will do.”
He Xiuyu didn’t say much more; he couldn’t really contribute to this topic since he and Qiao Qingyu had only registered their marriage and hadn’t even distributed wedding candy to their colleagues. Their parents hadn’t even t yet, let alone discussed hosting a wedding banquet.
The hand holding the broom swiveled slightly, and He Xiuyu beca a bit distracted.
Shen Haoze had no idea what He Xiuyu was thinking, and after piling up the deep snow against the wall, he stomped his feet and said, “Aren’t the materials we’ve been rushing to produce going to be transported around the Spring Festival? Maybe I should follow the truck when it leaves.”
His position at the base was not as high as He Xiuyu’s, but he was involved in so projects and naturally had the right to know. He was aware of these materials, which were now nearing completion.
He Xiuyu did not agree, saying instead, “Recently, things have been sowhat unrestful here in Xichuan.”
“I’ve heard about that too. The South is in chaos right now, teeming with all sorts of people. Many who have committed cris and stolen money have run here to hide. With the mountains so high and the Emperor far away, catching them is not that easy,” contemplated Shen Haoze.
“That is a problem, I will tell Old Lin to step up security afterward.”
Having just these asures wasn’t enough. An idea had already ford in Shen Haoze’s mind, although Su Yunyao didn’t know what Shen Haoze was planning to do. However, the day before her wedding, Su Yunyao ca to find Qiao Qingyu.
Without beating around the bush, Su Yunyao said, “Qiao Qingyu, I don’t want to waste words with you, but you might understand what I am about to say, or you might not. Either way, it’s out of my hands now.”
Qiao Qingyu, “…”
What’s the matter, starting to play word gas now, or is it so kind of prophecy?
Su Yunyao gave Qiao Qingyu a glance, “It is said that this sumr a major flood disaster will occur along the river in North City, which will affect your hotown.”
Without waiting for Qiao Qingyu to react, Su Yunyao turned and walked towards the door.
But Qiao Qingyu quickly called out to stop her, “Where did you hear this news from, and what does it have to do with your marriage?”
Su Yunyao halted in her tracks, her gaze fixed deeply on Qiao Qingyu, and she noticed that Qiao Qingyu was openly eting her gaze.
Su Yunyao beca a bit uncertain. Could it be that Qiao Qingyu didn’t understand, or was she feigning ignorance?
Indeed, there was doubt in Qiao Qingyu’s eyes, her questioning not entirely feigned.
Could this have been sothing that happened in Su Yunyao’s past life?
But why would she tell this to herself?
Was she actually so kind-hearted?
Su Yunyao slightly curled the corners of her mouth, then pushed the door open and briskly left He Xiuyu’s ho. After all, she had said what she had to say.
In so sense, she wasn’t a good person; she felt that doing this much was already quite benevolent. How North City would fare had nothing to do with her, and whether the course of history would change or not, what was bound to co would co. In this world, whether it’s good or bad, in the end, all must be faced.
It’s impossible in life to preemptively avoid all obstacles. By the ti you’ve avoided all of them, new barriers might erge.
Especially in this world, which had already changed beyond recognition, which was filled with all sorts of uncertainties.
As for what Qiao Qingyu would do after hearing the news, that was no longer within the scope of Su Yunyao’s concern.
That evening, when He Xiuyu ca back, the couple whispered softly in their bed.
“…As for the situation in North City, Su Yunyao wouldn’t make baseless assertions. How should we warn my uncle and the others?”
“Let’s start by having the county collect teorological data from recent years,” suggested He Xiuyu.
“Hejia Village and the Qiao Family Team are separated by a big river. If a flood disaster does occur, neither Hejia Village nor the Qiao Family Team will be able to avoid it, especially considering the large expanse of farmland nearby.”
“Normal floods wouldn’t really be a problem, after all, the terrain of Hejia Village and particularly the Qiao Family Team’s land is relatively high.”
