Chapter 401: Chapter 0401: Yaoyao Returns Home (Second Update)

Not only does it need to be insulated, but it also needs to be able to have circulating water installed. Just this complex setup alone is enough to give one a headache. Moreover, there’s the issue of how to transport such a large box down the mountain without damage.

Chu Ge was quite curious as he looked at Shen Congwen, knowing he could help if it involved fighting, but for matters like this, he truly had no idea how to be of assistance.

"If Mr. Shen needs my help, please don’t hesitate to ask," Chu Ge didn’t know how he could assist, but if Shen Congwen needed him, he would definitely lend a hand.

Shen Congwen shook his head and smiled, "The problems Mr. Huo mentioned are not issues at all. I like to leave myself a way out when I do things. Those problems you just talked about, I actually took preventive measures against them a long time ago. I just didn’t consider the matter of the water source back then; I had not anticipated that to make the first-level Earth Ganoderma reach its perfect state, it would require such a large amount of water."

Long before he built this villa, he had foreseen that one day this first-level Earth Ganoderma would cause a lot of trouble, so he had already taken preventive measures at that time.

"Then what are you still worried about?" Huo Tianqian didn’t understand. Since such a thorny issue as transportation had been resolved, what else could there be to worry about?

Shen Congwen smiled sheepishly and scratched his head, saying, "There are so many people outside, I just want to wait a bit longer before going out."

"..."

...

Meanwhile, Shen Yaoyao had locked herself in her room for a long time before she slowly got up and tidied herself to go out.

The Tang Family’s home was not far from the Shen Family’s, just a left turn at the road ahead.

Therefore, after leaving the Tang Family’s place, Shen Yaoyao walked towards the Shen Family’s home, admiring the scenery along the way.

They say that as one draws near to their hometown, they begin to feel more timid; that was exactly how Shen Yaoyao felt now.

This so-called Shen Family is not the Shen Family that Shen Congwen belongs to.

In Su City, there’s a distinction between the greater Shen Family and the Xiao Shen Family. The former refers to the Shen Family that rivals the Tang Family, while the latter has gradually risen in recent years due to ties with the Mu Family of Shanghai. Although not as vast as the greater Shen Family, it has also squeezed into the ranks of the smaller clans.

Walking on the road, Shen Yaoyao saw great changes on the streets. Since she didn’t bring thicker clothes with her from Shanghai, she was dressed rather lightly, which always drew people’s gazes as she walked along the main road.

Shen Yaoyao tugged at her clothes, her steps heavy as she made her way towards the Xiao Shen Family.

For the first time, Shen Yaoyao felt this road was unbearably long. She dawdled along and it took her nearly half an hour just to reach the end of the street.

Standing at the street corner, she could see from afar the entrance to the residential community where the Xiao Shen Family was located. It had been many years since she’d been back; this community had only been purchased by the Shen Family in recent years.

She had first learned of this place through the words of others.

At that time, she felt heartbroken for a while because she didn’t even know that her family had moved, thinking that her family had completely abandoned her.

The more she thought about it, the more discomfort she felt in her heart, and her steps became heavier and heavier.

Just as she hesitated whether or not to cross the street, an extremely annoying voice suddenly came from behind her.

"Yo! Who is this? Let me take a good look at who this is." A shrill voice suddenly pierced through the air, as if afraid that others wouldn’t notice, it was spoken especially loudly.

Shen Yaoyao didn’t need to turn around to know that this unpleasant voice belonged to her cousin Shen Mimi.

Shen Mimi was the same age as her, the daughter of her second uncle, and has been at odds with her since they were children. They’ve been competing with each other since they were kids, and it wasn’t until after they went to college, with Shen Yaoyao heading to another place, that they finally had no more opportunities to meet.

But before she had fallen out with her family, every time she came back, Shen Mimi would loom behind her like a haunting shadow, and then butt heads with her.

Today was truly unlucky, to have just returned and immediately run into someone so annoying.

Shen Yaoyao didn’t turn around, and coincidentally, the light in front had turned red again, so she could only stand there and wait.

Shen Mimi sashayed forward, dressed from inside out in brand names, as if terrified that others wouldn’t know she was wealthy.

Shen Yaoyao, seeing Shen Mimi dressed in an attention-grabbing outfit, immediately thought of a term: Phoenix Chicken.

"Shen Yaoyao, you even have the face to come back, do you know that grandfather is seriously ill? Grandpa has always favored you since you were young, and what did you do in return? To spite the family, you ran off to a faraway place in a fit of anger, vanishing without a trace. If it wasn’t for grandpa pulling some strings to contact the Mu Family and finding out your whereabouts, you would never want to contact them again in your life."

Next to Shen Mimi stood a man dressed in a black casual jacket, his style of dress not much different from Shen Mimi’s, giving people the impression at first glance of a nouveau riche.

At this moment, he was eyeing Shen Yaoyao up and down with a look of surprise, and said, "Mimi, so this is that cousin of yours that you’ve been talking about? Not bad at all, she has a really good figure."

Shen Yaoyao had the kind of appearance that instantly gave off a youthful and clean vibe. She wore simple clothes and didn’t wear any makeup, but she looked very pleasant at first glance.

But Shen Mimi couldn’t compete because over the years she would never step out without makeup. Now, her skin was in poor condition, and even today, a thick layer of foundation couldn’t hide the pimples on her face.

Using the popular internet slang of the day, one would say this child has gone downhill.

When Shen Mimi heard the man she fancied praise Shen Yaoyao right in front of her, a surge of anger burst within her.

She said with displeasure, "Lin, what do you mean by that? Are you saying that I’m not as good as her?"

The man named Lin, hearing Shen Mimi’s anger, hurriedly stepped forward to wrap his arms around her, consoling her: "My dear, of course not. I just said it offhand. In my heart, you are obviously the most beautiful."

Though the Xiao Shen Family wasn’t as wealthy as the Shen Family, they were still a minor clan in Su City. If he could get connected with the daughter of the minor clan, even marry her, then he would have nothing to worry about for the rest of his life.

Lin thought he had it all figured out. Shen Mimi was foolish and naive; it was easy to appease her with just a few words, so in his mind, he had already relegated Shen Mimi to his last resort.

Until he met someone better, until he hadn’t won her over, he would definitely not give up on Shen Mimi as a potential pawn.

Shen Yaoyao watched the two shamelessly showing off their love in front of her, gave Shen Mimi a cold glare, then turned around. Just as the light turned green, Shen Yaoyao, without even a goodbye, stepped off and left.

Shen Mimi snapped back to reality, saw the hurried figure of her leaving, and quickly followed her, saying, "Shen Yaoyao, are you going home like this?"
