The Supporting Female Character in a Chronicle Doesn't Do It Anymore

Ye Shuning, a Doctor of Chemistry, was struck by a meteorite and transmigrated into a chronicle novel she had read, becoming the male lead's cannon fodder ex-wife.

She just wants to stay ...

Chapter 167 More Confident

Li Shaozhong admired and was grateful to Ye Shuning. He smiled and said, "Your decision has solved a big problem for us. You are truly my lucky star."

Ye Shuning didn't want Li Shaozhong to feel burdened. "You can help me solve the problem, right? It's mutually beneficial. I'm still waiting for your technicians to help me improve the equipment."

After Ye Shuning acquired the factory, it did not stop production because there were still raw materials and they could not be wasted, so it is still in production, and the previous staff are still in charge of production.

There had been no major changes to the factory's personnel at the moment, and Ye Shuning planned to wait and see. Those who were suitable would be retained, while those who took advantage of the situation and acted cunningly would be fired. Her factory was hers to call the shots.

Now that Li Shaozhong and the others had arrived, Ye Shuning felt even more confident. Especially the people Li Shaoyang brought with him, none of them were ordinary people, their skills were no worse than Sun Tiancheng's, they were all skilled.

After choosing a room, Ye Shuning asked the company's purchasing staff to buy beds, wardrobes, tables, etc., and to set up the dormitory as soon as possible. At the same time, she arranged for Sun Tiancheng to drive the factory truck to pick them up.

After making the arrangements, the three of them went to Ye Shuning's office. Ye Shuning's office was also the former boss's office, and it was the largest room. However, after Ye Shuning acquired the factory, she rearranged the office.

The large mahogany desk in the office remained the same, but the sofa was. Some small decorations were also changed. The office also had a back room, which the previous boss used for rest. It even had a bathroom, which Ye Shuning was very satisfied with.

However, she also replaced the bed, wardrobe and other things in the lounge. Now that she had the conditions, she didn't want to use a resting place that had been used by someone else, especially a man. She felt uncomfortable.

The office is elegantly decorated, while the lounge is more feminine and cozy. The purple-blue curtains, white wardrobe, small sofa, and table are all beautiful. There's even a small bear stuffed animal on the bed.

Li Shaozhong and Li Shaoyang visited Ye Shuning's office.

Li Shaoyang sat down on the brand new sofa, stretched his limbs, and said, "Xiao Ning, your office is quite nice. It's classy and grand."

Li Shaozhong looked at the lounge and said, "The lounge is well decorated. When you're tired from work, you can go in and take a rest."

Ye Shuning made a cup of tea for everyone, sat on the sofa and said, "I'll arrange a few more offices for you. You live on the third floor, so the offices can be arranged in the empty rooms on the second floor.

I just decorated this office, and I haven't used it much yet. My office is big enough, so I'll add another desk, and Brother Li San can work here."

Li Shaozhong naturally wanted to share an office with Ye Shuning, so they could spend more time together. But it wasn't suitable at the moment.

Li Shaozhong also sat on the sofa and said, "It's not convenient for me to share an office with you at first, so I'll just share an office with my second brother. Anyway, there's nothing important right now."

Li Shaoyang said, "Once my men arrive, I'll arrange for them to patrol in shifts, morning and evening, to ensure no one dares to do anything bad. If any thieves come, I'll make sure they never come back."

Ye Shuning smiled and said, "Brother Li, I feel much more at ease with you guys around. I feel more confident."

Li Shaoyang smiled and said, "Of course, we are all family, so of course I feel at ease. Family members will definitely not plot against you. The nine people who came with me are all guaranteed. After I leave, they will directly follow Shaozhong's command."

Upon hearing this, Ye Shuning asked, "Second Brother Li, do you still want to go back?"

Li Shaoyang shrugged and said, "Of course, I have to go back. There are still many things waiting for me to do. I followed Shaozhong and the others this time because I was worried about Shaozhong, and also because I wanted to see you. That's why I took this mission. I have to go back after Shaozhong and the others are settled."

Ye Shuning was a little disappointed after hearing this. "Ah, that means you can't stay in Nangang for long."

Li Shaoyang smiled and said, "We feel relieved with Shaozhong by your side, so I can go back and report to your father. It was he who suggested I come here this time. Nangang isn't very safe, and he was worried, so he asked me to come and keep an eye on things."

I've also learned over the past two days that gangs are rampant here, with violence and gunfights occurring frequently. Some gang members even kidnap wealthy people for ransom. The nine people I brought with me are all veterans of the battlefield and are highly skilled.

Some of them come from less fortunate families, and some are injured, forcing them to leave the army. But they're all good people, so I've brought them together and asked them to follow Shaozhong. I can protect your safety and also find a way out for them."

Ye Shuning immediately understood what Li Shaoyang meant. "Brother Li, don't worry. They followed you to Nangang because they trust us. I won't treat them unfairly. We will definitely return in the future, and we will return in glory."

Sun Tiancheng quickly brought everyone over in a truck. Ye Shuning and the others heard the noise and went down to greet them. Li Shaozhong also gave everyone a brief introduction.

At this time, the factory's purchasing agent had just bought the beds, wardrobes, tables and chairs.

Li Shaozhong said, "Everyone is here now. Please help move the furniture to the third floor. We will all live there."

Li Shaozhong waved his hand and everyone bustled into action. Soon, the furniture was moved to the third floor, and the living quarters were ready. Li Shaozhong had ordered bunk beds, so the lower bunk could accommodate one person and the upper bunk could hold some things. This would ensure that others would have room to stay in the future.

There were fifteen of them in total. Li Shaozhong and his second brother shared a room, two technicians shared a room, and the nine people brought by Li Shaoyang chose to have three people in a room and the remaining two people in a room.

They had bought bedding before, and they felt better after spreading the bedding and putting their own things on it.

One of the technicians, Liu Bokun, who was in his forties, sat on his bed and said to his roommate who was packing his things nearby, "The conditions here are much better, even better than what we had back home."

Across from him, Zhang Jianshu placed his teacup on the table and sat down on the bed. He looked around the new dormitory and said, "Of course the conditions here are much better. At least we don't have to worry about getting our families into trouble."

Both men came from poor backgrounds, and their previous circumstances certainly weren't good either. When their bosses invited them to Nangang for business, they came without hesitation. They figured the situation couldn't get any worse than before, but they didn't expect the conditions to be so good.

The two men's previous anxieties had largely dissipated. It seemed their team leader was quite capable, having already helped them solve so many problems since arriving in Nangang. With continued hard work, things would surely get even better. The two men felt a sense of purpose in their lives.
