423 Aren’t Meant To Be Close

Coincidentally, this scene was seen by Shu Ya again. Shu Ya wanted to plant potted flowers in her room recently, so she went to the villagers to ask for a few flower seeds today. Then, she went to town to buy a flower pot and shoveled the soil behind the osmanthus tree in the courtyard.

Unexpectedly, just as she dug up more than half a basin and was about to get up and return to the dormitory, she heard the three of them talking. Being urged to return money wasn’t an honorable thing. Moreover, she hadn’t lent Yu Yan money. In order to avoid an awkward situation, she could only squat back down. It was only after Yu Yan left that she walked out from behind the tree with the basin.

In the afternoon, Shu Ya went to the factory area to report the contents of the September night school to Yu Bing.

When Yu Bing saw that Shu Ya was looking for her, she smiled. “You came at the right time. I was about to look for you!”

When Shu Ya heard this, she smiled and went forward to ask, “Is it the packaging design for the double holidays?”

Yu Bing pursed her lips and smiled. “That’s right. Last month, flour started to get rationed, so we didn’t dare to go to the agency to get orders. Now that it’s been canceled, we have to snatch customers quickly.”

In Yu Bing’s memory, there was no war this year. However, because there was no food factory in the village at this time in her previous life, a month of temporary rationing didn’t affect the lives of the residents and Yu Bing didn’t know about the rationing.

Out of caution, she was in no hurry to snatch the agency’s gift order.

This matter also gave Yu Bing inspiration. She had to produce more raw materials that were not easy to regulate. Otherwise, if she encountered such a situation again, not many products in their food factory could compete with those of other large food factories.

Shu Ya had been trying to get creative inspiration since last month. Now that Yu Bing suddenly mentioned it, she was prepared. “I already have some inspiration, but I keep feeling that there’s something missing. However, I can design it for you in the next two days.”

After the two of them chatted about the design direction and theme innovations this time, Shu Ya felt enlightened. This was also why she liked to chat with Yu Bing.

Yu Bing looked young, but Shu Ya knew that she was forward-looking and open-minded. Shu Ya admired this girl who was a few years younger than her.

Thinking of Yu Yan’s vicious curses when she mentioned Yu Bing in the afternoon, Shu Ya looked at Yu Bing with a hint of worry. She was a little hesitant about telling her what she had seen previously.

Yu Bing senses Shu Ya’s strange gaze and thought that it was about work, so she smiled and said, “We’re already so familiar with each other. If you have any thoughts, just mention them. There’s nothing to be embarrassed about.”

Previously, the two of them were not very familiar with each other, so there were some things that Shu Ya didn’t say. However, this time, she saw Yu Yan’s malicious intent towards Yu Bing with her own eyes, so she decided to tell her everything she knew.

Yu Bing was a little surprised. Yu Yan had reunited with her family much earlier than in her previous life.

In Shu Ya’s opinion, Yu Bing’s surprise was due to her sister’s sudden appearance and her sister’s inexplicable malice towards her.

Shu Ya patted Yu Bing’s shoulder. “Don’t be so sad. Some siblings just aren’t meant to be close. You have to be more careful.”

Yu Bing came back to her senses and nodded with a smile as she said, “I’m fine. Don’t worry.”

Yu Bing’s response was truthful. She didn’t care what that family did.

However, in Shu Ya’s eyes, this seemed like a forced smile. After all, in her opinion, Yu Bing’s family hid such a shocking secret, so how could Yu Bing accept it so quickly? Shu Ya wanted to give Yu Bing more personal space to calm down, so she stood up and left.

Yu Yan and the Yu family thought that they had hidden the matter perfectly, but they didn’t expect Yu Bing to already know about everything.

In the next few days, a few more people came to ask Yu Yan about the repayment, but they were all temporarily appeased by Yu Yan in the same way.

On the other side, Madam Sun finally couldn’t hold back her urge to cause trouble.

Madam Sun lay on the bed and held her waist as she wailed, “My waist will be crippled if this continues!”

As Sun Guo squatted on the ground, he took out a bottle of medicinal wine from the corner and helped Madam Sun massage her waist.
