Chapter 314 What Kind of Person Will She Become?
Downstairs, the two were embracing. On the third floor, the old man tapped his cane and looked away.
"Alright, stop looking."
What follows is not for the father and son to see.
Xu Cang also withdrew his gaze and was about to follow, but the old man stopped him.
"Have someone tidy up the main hall. Don't let the little girl make a fool of herself when she enters the house."
What are you going there for?
The old man walked a little hurriedly: "Change your clothes. It's our first meeting, I need to be more formal."
...
Tu Yao tried to squeeze out of his arms, but after a couple of attempts, she gave up.
She thought that she had taken the initiative to see Xiaochi three times, and she and Xiaochi had hugged each other three times.
Once at the Bai family shipyard, once before she left this world, and this time, now that she has returned to this world.
"Tu Xiaomao, when are we going to start planting herbs?"
After hugging for an unknown amount of time, Xu Chi finally began to ask questions.
Tu Yao said quietly, "We can do it now."
The person above paused for a moment, then continued, "...Are you in a hurry? Is there a time limit?"
This time, the question was whispered in her ear, sounding unusually casual.
But Tu Yao was exceptionally perceptive. "Xiao Chi, are you trying to trick me into revealing anything?"
Xu Chi felt the body in his arms tense up instantly and couldn't help but laugh.
Once he came to his senses, the questions he wanted to ask returned to his mind, but he didn't know whether he should ask them or not.
"...Reciprocity is key, Tu Xiaomao."
Tu Yao was taken aback, her ears turning red. He was referring to how she had tricked him into revealing information a few days ago under the guise of the Wolf Fang organization.
She immediately looked up, speaking with conviction: "But I'm right here. You can ask me directly, and I'll tell you anything I can."
Xu Chi lowered his eyes to look at her, raising an eyebrow. "So you mean you won't tell me things you can't say?"
"Tu Xiaomao, this is so unfair."
His tone carried a slight hint of reproach.
Tu Yao immediately stopped talking.
After a few seconds of silence, she let go of his arms, picked up the document again, and muttered to herself, "...Then I'll add one more thing: you can't contradict what the boss says."
She plopped down on the floor, pulled out a pen, and manually wrote on the back of the document.
Xu Chi chuckled, squatted down in front of her, and pointed out: "Tu Xiaomao, this is a very domineering clause."
Tu Yao glared at her fiercely in an instant: "Don't you know? I've always been a very domineering person!"
Even from a distance of less than five centimeters, you can almost see every inch of the other person's skin tone.
Seemingly realizing she was getting too close, Tu Yao blinked and then casually stepped back.
He said in a serious tone, "...I haven't told you the specifics yet, have I? I want to set up a herbal medicine cultivation base."
"This herb cultivation base is very important, and I plan to..."
Xu Chi watched her talkative manner, unable to suppress the smile on his face.
Throughout his career, he had never encountered a case where a contract was signed first, and then the project process was announced to the shareholders.
But Tu Yao was not intimidated at all, and explained in detail the plan that she had told Madam Jiang in Yanjing.
She brought five varieties of cultivated seeds and used the money given to her by Madam Jiang to purchase a batch of cultivated seeds from her classmates.
"These are all products that we improved in the lab when we were in school. If they can be successfully planted and grown, it means that they can be mass-produced successfully."
"Therefore, our most important goal is to successfully bring this batch of breeding stock to fruition."
...
She said, "Xu Chi, listen."
As he listened, Xu Chi's initial smile gradually dimmed, and his eyes dimmed slightly.
He roughly understood what Tu Yao was doing.
The girl before me gave up the preferential treatment that Heaven had given her and chose to become a person of value.
Ultimately, the key to merging the two worlds lies with Tu Xiaomao.
In the end, Tu Yao once again stepped forward.
"...Do you find it tiring?"
Xu Chi suddenly spoke.
Tu Yao looked up and said, "Farming is never easy."
Seeing the young man's slightly serious gaze, Tu Yao was stunned again.
She roughly understood what Xu Chi meant.
He wondered if taking on the responsibility again would be too much of a burden.
After a moment of silence, Tu Yao looked up again and said earnestly, "But Xiao Chi, I also want to know what kind of person I will become in the future."
Xu Chi was stunned by her gaze.
It's not just about wanting her luck to promote the fusion of the two worlds.
Putting that reason aside, Tu Yao continued, "I also want to know how far I can go."
As the years went by, Tu Chaoxi's goal in becoming a dazzling superstar was no longer to find her younger siblings, but to write her own songs with like-minded friends.
When Nan Ke retaliated against the plagiarism scandal in Crane Village, his purpose was no longer to vent his anger through the range of the piano, but to adapt notes that were truly magnificent or peaceful from the heart.
Lin Yue overcame the initial difficulties by taking over the company from Lin Qiuping, and now he has become a testament to his ability to stand on his own.
Initially, planting button mushrooms carried the heavy responsibility of lifting Xianhe Village out of poverty, and later became the starting point for Xu Bai's growth.
Sang Sang's dream of becoming a screenwriter was accidentally sparked, and Teacher Ma went from being a professional critic to a semi-professional writer.
...
Over the past four years, everyone has taken detours, but they have also realized their dreams along the way.
And what about her?
Her initial purpose in planting herbs was to quickly generate her own fortune.
But what kind of person will she become in the world she desires, carrying these herbs with her?
Xu Chi was speechless.
Just as he once thought saving the world meant saving her family to five-year-old Tu Yao, Tu Yao is now doing the same, drawing what she wants from one challenge after another.
She always manages to perfectly balance subjectivity and wholeness.
On the contrary, he always meticulously calculated all the sacrifices she made.
But this time is different; he will accompany her to build the world she wants.
Tu Yao came to find him. She had found a third path among two choices, so no matter how difficult it was, he would walk with her.
A smile returned to Xu Chi's lips as he reached out his hand to her.
"...Should we go take a look at that piece of land?"
Tu Yao blinked, hesitated for a moment, and pointed upwards.
"I think I just saw your dad and brother. Shouldn't you say hello to them?"
Xu Chi's smile faded slightly as he took her hand.
"Ignore them."
"Walk."
...
On the third floor, the old man changed into a brand new Tang suit, wiped his cane clean again, and checked the main hall twice.
But even after drinking five full cups of tea, no one came.
He finally realized something was wrong.
I quickly went to the window and looked down, but there was no one there.
