Chapter 14 Rumors



Shen Yanming felt a surge of anger that he couldn't swallow or spit out. How could a woman he had only met once have caused him such a huge loss?

Looking at the woman inside the car who seemed to be losing control of her emotions, Shen Yanming, sitting in the car, spat out a harsh sentence, "I hope you have the self-awareness to stay away from me from now on, otherwise I will make you pay back with interest!"

After saying that, he started the car and went home.

Shen Yanming understood very well that although the man surnamed Wei and Cai Chun had conspired to frame him in his previous life, he also had his own reasons for not being able to be with Qiao An.

Having been reborn, one cannot always limit one's vision to the past life; the most important thing is to live well in the present and in the future.

And so, Shen Yanming carried dozens of shopping bags home. Once home, he removed the tags from each bag, put the machine-washable ones in the washing machine to rinse, and hand-washed the ones that couldn't be machine-washed.

An hour later, Shen Yanming looked at the clothes rack on the living room balcony full of new clothes, then turned into the master bedroom. The master bedroom balcony was full of all kinds of underwear. Shen Yanming felt extremely happy.

Shen Yanming didn't go out for lunch. He tried cooking according to a recipe he found online. He had some talent for it and managed to cook all the dishes, but they didn't taste very good.

Those who have experienced hunger are unwilling to waste a single grain of rice, and even though the food was unpalatable, Shen Yanming ate it all.

"It was better when Qiao An was around; at least there were good meals!" Shen Yanming thought to himself.

At noon, Shen Yanming got up after sleeping for half an hour, turned on his computer, searched for a map of Haishi, and studied it, wondering where it would be safest to store supplies.

It's definitely safe to put things in now, but I'm afraid they'll get flooded or buried in the mud. Otherwise, when people are starving and food-hunting people find them, they won't even have a hair left for themselves.

Moreover, storing things too early might cause them to spoil, while acting too late might attract unwanted attention.

Shen Yanming shook his head. This guy is not simple!

Shen Yanming thought to himself, "If only there were a completely safe space, even if it's small, at least I could leave myself and Qiao An some things to save our lives."

Shen Yanming thought of the space in the novel, then laughed at himself for thinking too much. How could such a thing exist? But if only a space really existed!

Shen Yanming printed out the map, circled a few points with a red pen, and planned to conduct an on-site inspection tomorrow.

After finishing my work, I checked the time and it was 4:30. I drove to the coffee shop at the intersection, talked to the manager, and then copied the video of Cai Chun and Ms. Wei talking.

We changed direction and went to Qinghai University to pick up Bi Qiaoan.

Bi Qiaoan really didn't expect Shen Yanming to come. The two had only been separated for less than 12 hours. Wouldn't Shen Yanming get tired of it?

Shen Yanming really doesn't get tired of it; he wishes he could come to school with Bi Qiaoan.

"Go home when you don't have classes!"

"No, it's too much trouble to run back and forth!"

"No trouble at all, I'll pick you up and drop you off."

"Aren't you working anymore? By the way, when are you going back to Europe?"

"I'm not going back, and I don't plan to go back to work. It's only for the next year or two anyway, so there's no need to go back. It won't change anything, and it will only make me sad."

"That's true... but I can only stay at school for three months. Those two years in my previous life were particularly difficult. I really want to go back to my university days. I feel like I was carefree and happy back then."

Shen Yanming fell silent after hearing this. These past two days, he had been browsing Weibo and forums, and he had seen countless people complaining about their lives. When the apocalypse came, what they would miss the most was precisely the past that they had complained about.

"Please come home and stay with me while I'm here. I might have to go out in a couple of days."

Upon hearing this, Bi Qiaoan quickly asked, "Where are you going?"

Shen Yanming sensed the tension in Bi Qiaoan's tone and quickly reassured her, "Go out and see if there's a suitable warehouse. We've been reborn, so we need to store some supplies for ourselves."

After hearing this, Bi Qiaoan sighed, "If only there were the spaces in novels."

Shen Yanming smiled and shook his head. He wanted the space too!

It was only 6:30 when she got home. Looking at the densely packed clothes on the balcony, Bi Qiaoan praised Shen Yanming's taste, "Brother Yanming is changing his style and getting to the forefront of fashion!"

"I'm eight years older than you, so I wanted to dress younger," Shen Yanming chuckled. "There are some spring and summer clothes I bought for you on the master bedroom balcony. Go see if you like them."

Bi Qiaoan glanced at Shen Yanming, muttering, "What did you buy?"

Soon, Bi Qiaoan came out blushing and looked at Shen Yanming, saying, "Why did you buy underwear? How embarrassing!"

After saying that, she covered her face and said, "Hehe, those dresses are all very pretty, but, how should I put it, they are basically unwearable in the apocalypse."

“I know, so let’s enjoy it while we can still wear it, so that when the time comes, we won’t have any regrets.”

"Okay, thank you!" Bi Qiaoan nodded, very happy.

Afterwards, the two went into the kitchen. One washed the vegetables and the other chopped them. One cooked the dishes and the other kept him company. After the meal was ready, they sat facing each other.

Bi Qiaoan looked at the handsome Shen Yanming across from her, her cheeks flushed with embarrassment. Shen Yanming looked at the vibrant Bi Qiaoan in front of him, smiled, and reached out to touch Bi Qiaoan's face.

"Honey, dinner's ready!"

"Hmm, a feast for the eyes!"

After the meal, the two of them washed the dishes and wiped the table, working together like an old married couple.

"Qiao An, watch TV for a while. I have something to do, but I'll come out and keep you company in a bit!"

"good!"

In the study, Shen Yanming opened the video he had copied that afternoon and listened to it with his headphones.

"Cai Chun, what are you saying? You're not kidding, are you?!"

“I’m telling the truth. I didn’t expect it either, but I heard the doctor say with my own ears that Mr. Shen has a heart condition.”

"How could this be? How could this be? Wouldn't he be in great danger?"

"The doctor prescribed a lot of medicine and told Mr. Shen to rest well and not to overwork himself."

"I've waited for him for so many years, how could he get a heart attack?"

"Miss Wei, why don't you consider someone else? After all these years..."

"Let me think about it..."

Shen Yanming watched Miss Wei's hysteria, watched Cai Chun gently comfort her, and watched a man in the corner eavesdrop on the whole thing before a smile appeared on his lips.

Shen Yanming turned off the computer, went to the living room, and directly pulled Bi Qiaoan into his arms, sitting down together.

"Don't do this, I'm not used to it."

"Then practice more and get used to it sooner."

Bi Qiaoan rolled her eyes and ignored Shen Yanming. Shen Yanming, however, was in a good mood. He hadn't expected Cai Chun to be so helpful. It was a twist of fate, but as long as the result was the same, that was fine.

The next day, a rumor spread in the business district of Haishi that Shen Yanming of the Shen Group was suffering from heart disease. People were in an uproar, and the rumor gradually spread to the point that Shen Yanming was seriously ill and would not live much longer.
