Chapter 1051: Chapter 1051: Reunion
Wei Guangxiang looked up at Su Yuanyuan, "Xiao Su. I’m thinking of going home. Since my few junior brothers left, there’s been no news from them."
Su Yuanyuan was taken aback. She knew Wei Guangxiang and Zeng Yixin had feelings for her, but she couldn’t respond at all. So she usually kept things cold and distant, not allowing them to think too much. She hadn’t expected Wei Guangxiang to suddenly bring this up.
"Just make sure your work is arranged properly. But how are you going to find them?"
Wei Guangxiang shook his head, "I don’t know either." When he first came here, it was actually just to become someone Su Yuanyuan was used to having around.
But after all these years of effort, it was still the same.
Leaving now felt like there was nothing to miss. He took another deep look at Su Yuanyuan, etching it into his heart. From now on, they’d be just ordinary friends, business partners.
Every time he faced her indifference, he thought this way, but this time felt completely different. This time he was truly giving up. He couldn’t not give up; she only saw him as an ordinary friend, plus the man had returned safely.
"If you need help, give me a call, okay?" This was as far as he could help.
"Thank you."
Wei Guangxiang found a tinge of bitterness in his smile.
Zhan Yunzhao was now chatting with Tan Shaoting. The two seemed to get along quite well. Tan Shaoting found this Daoist to be a person of clarity.
Zeng Hongling and the others were just cooking simple dishes now, as the main dishes were already prepared. In less than half an hour, everyone gathered around the table. These were two tables joined together, letting everyone get closer, eating and chatting, which was the best way to strengthen bonds.
Qi Yan and the other two really didn’t like the culinary specialties from their side, but fortunately, Zeng Hongling made a few northern dishes, so the three of them could get full.
"Haha, Qi Yan, you and your mom are alike, not fond of our regional specialties."
"Auntie, we’re just not used to it." The taste was too different.
Tan Shaoting didn’t mind. He could eat anything, but smoked meat really didn’t appeal to him. He and his sons would likely never want to eat roast or smoked meat.
Chengzi didn’t mind either. He could eat anything, having gotten used to it from missions where he ate just about everything.
Zeng Hongling was smiling as she discussed the southern factory with Su Yuanyuan.
Su Yuanyuan thought the Zeng Family would definitely recover with this. The Zeng Family were actually all smart people.
"By the way, Xiao Su, your 20% shares are here." Yang Liulang said.
"Alright, I know. I’ll find someone to arrange the cashing out of that money."
Su Yuanyuan had already decided: she would use it to build a school. Indeed, nothing is more important than knowledge. Cultivating people is a long-term effort and can’t be done overnight.
"Yuanyuan, do you have any ideas?" Zeng Hongling asked with a smile.
"I’ll specifically find someone to use this 20% to build a school."
"Building a school? That’s truly a good idea; our family would do the same."
Su Yuanyuan nodded, "That’s the best. To me, money is just numbers when you have enough, better to do something meaningful.
Hongling, you could actually develop this idea. Sometimes fame is more important than money."
"Yes, Yuanyuan, I’ll consider this in the future; maybe it will even lead to self-discovery."
Su Yuanyuan was in agreement; this was indeed the best approach. The Zeng Family might not have cash now, but their foundation was undoubtedly solid; money wasn’t their main concern.
The Zeng Family used to be a prominent family, so if they want to be acknowledged by the world again, they must do significant things; doing good deeds might be most effective.
Zeng Yaozu realized this too. He was smiling broadly, even a bit excited at the thought of the Zeng Family being recognized as a prominent family again.
Things are different now compared to before; it’s really hard to recreate past glories.
Now Xiao Su had provided a path, and after careful analysis, it truly seemed suited to the Zeng Family.
Yang Liulang was contemplating this matter too; Hongling was his wife and part of the Zeng Family, so it could allow both the Zeng Family and Yang Family to rise gradually. He planned to discuss it with his dad.
Although the nine brothers had split their families, the next Yang Family Head hadn’t been chosen yet; their father was still in charge.
This matter would definitely benefit the Yang Family without any downsides.
Daoist Zhan grinned from the side, "I’ll also have Hongling assist me. I may not have much to invest, but I’ll definitely join in.
Although I’m an old Taoist, I still live in this world, and Xiao Su is right; building schools is most important.
If we want to grow strong, we must have culture."
Wei Guangxiang had the same thought. "Xiao Su, once I return safely, you can entrust such matters to me. I’ll help you manage your private affairs."
He finally said it. Unlike them, he had no attachments, no family or relatives.
He’s alone in the world, with no particular desire for a specific life. So keeping too much money was useless.
He had thought in the past that if Daoist Zhan ever wanted to build a Daoist Temple, he would provide all his money to help him.
Having just heard Xiao Su’s words, he understood how he would proceed in the future.
Su Yuanyuan wasn’t suited for such things, so he could handle her personal matters, making it meaningful.
Su Yuanyuan was stunned. She didn’t expect Wei Guangxiang to say this, to have such thoughts.
"Wei Guangxiang, you’re really excellent, more than capable of having your own career. I don’t want to hold you back."
Wei Guangxiang shook his head, "I feel I’m nothing on my own. I want to help you do some good deeds; this is my path for the second half of my life."
Su Yuanyuan looked at Wei Guangxiang, seeing his very straightforward gaze towards her.
"Alright, as long as you’re willing. Actually, I will have many private matters in the future."
Wei Guangxiang smiled, "That sounds good. I feel that if I really build a school or do whatever you suggest, I’ll be quite happy."
"If you’re happy, that’s great. I trust in your ability." She knew of his truly outstanding and capable performance over the years.
"Thank you for trusting me. I definitely won’t let you down."
With that, the matter seemed settled. Wei Guangxiang suddenly felt all his inner pressure dissipate; a sense of clarity dawned on him.
Zeng Yixin was envious of Wei Guangxiang, but he couldn’t do the same. Too many ties and responsibilities held him back; this was his obligation as a member of the Zeng Family.
