Chapter 2063: Arriving in Shen City

“This is the room that was supposed to be allocated to Mr. Zhong back then. I rented it from the landlord and he has promised me that he will continue to rent it to you until you pass on,” Qiao Mei said.

“Really? I hope you’re not lying to me!” Auntie Cui said as she looked at Qiao Mei in shock.

“Of course it’s for real. I have the official document from the school from back then. Mr. Zhong specially chose this room for you. At that time, you were working in a convenience store. The window in this room faces the direction where you come back from work every day. Mr. Zhong must really love you very much,” Qiao Mei lamented as she pointed at the small path outside the window.

Auntie Cui stood by the window and wept silently. Zhong Tian had already been gone for a long time and the neighbors had long forgotten about his existence.

Back then, Zhong Tian had cut ties with his family in order to marry Auntie

Cui. Even Zhong Tian’s own brothers probably did not remember him by now.

She was very scared of recalling her past with Zhong Tian. Whenever she thought of him, she could not help but cry. As time passed, her eyesight started to fail, to the extent that she could not even see clearly those books which he had used as textbooks when he was teaching her.

Auntie Cui did not expect this little girl, who was a total stranger to her, to go to this extent for the two of them. She was very grateful to Qiao Mei.

“Thank you, young lady, but the rent for this room must be very expensive. I can’t afford it,” Auntie Cui said.

“The rent here is the same as what you pay for the room in the Gao family’s ancestral home. Auntie Cui, you don’t have to worry. Furthermore, this room is also fitted out in the same way as your current room,” Qiao Mei said.

“Thank you. Thank you so much. Both Zhong Tian and I are very grateful to you,” Auntie Cui said with a smile.

That night, Qiao Mei arranged for someone to help Auntie Cui move to the new place and also gave her an additional 200 dollars. Although the deadline to receive the rewards had already passed, it was worth commemorating the love between Auntie Cui and Zhong Tian.

All the previous tenants had been cleared out and the house solely belonged to the Gao family now. Qiao Mei immediately arranged for the builders to weld the main door shut so that no one could try to get in again.

“Granduncle, I’ll leave this house in your hands now.” Qiao Mei stuffed the key into Gao Lin’s hand.

As Gao Lin looked at the key, his eyes reddened. He raised his head to look at the house and said, “This house contains all those memories of me and my elder sister. Qiao Mei, I’m really grateful to you. If not for your help, I probably won’t be able to come back and live in the Gao family’s ancestral home in this life. I won’t know how to face the Gao family’s ancestors when I die!”

“Fortunately, it’s back in our hands now. I still have work to do. Granduncle, you will have to stay in Hu City to keep an eye on the renovations,” Qiao Mei said.

“Don’t worry and go! Leave this to me! Contact me immediately if anything happens in Shen City. Don’t shoulder any issue alone,” Gao Lin said.

“I’ll remember that,” Qiao Mei said happily.

Lu Huai had joined the delivery team on the trip this time round since Qiao Mei had stressed to him about the importance of these machines. In addition, they were sending the items to Xiang Chen this time round, so he felt that it was more secure for him to do it personally.

Xiang Chen and Wu Duo had already made a name for themselves in Shen City. By now, they had bought more than 10 properties. There were about seven to eight villas, three old bungalows and even three small plots of land. Everyone in Shen City addressed Xiang Chen as “Boss Xiang”.

“Cousin-in-law, you’re finally here! We don’t even know what to do with these machines! You have to tell us what to do next!” The moment Qiao Mei got out of the car, Xiang Chen started telling her everything that had happened during this period of time.

Those machines were really too huge. The small plots of land which he and Wu Duo bought were not too big enough to accommodate the machines and he could not set up the production line at all. The most important thing now was to build a factory or to get a bigger piece of land that was suitable for the setting up of a production line.

Qiao Mei waved her hands and said indifferently, “It’s still too early for all this!

Don’t be so anxious.”

“How can I not be anxious! Second Cousin-in-law is still here!” Xiang Chen said agitatedly.

“Second Cousin-in-law? Who’s Second Cousin-in-law?” Qiao Mei was confused for a moment.

“It’s Lu Huai! He came personally! Don’t you know about this?” Xiang Chen asked, looking puzzled.

This was really beyond Qiao Mei’s expectations. At that time, Qiao Mei had said she wanted Chi Ze to come with the convoy, so she did not expect Lu Huai to come instead..
