Seventies Sweetheart: From Breakup to Billionaire-Chapter 215: Who Is Yuanyi?

Chapter 215: Chapter 215: Who Is Yuanyi?
The summer vacation has started, and normally the teachers would be on break too.
But since it’s close to the time when grades are released, the senior high school teachers have been working overtime at the school.
After entering the school gate, Lin Xiang made her way to Yu Xiumei’s office with ease.
"Are you saying you’re leaving for Beijing in the next couple of days?"
Lin Xiang nodded, "It’s sudden, but my family has run into some trouble, and I have to go. Teacher Yu, I’ve listed the school as the address to receive my admission letter, so you must sign for it on my behalf when it arrives."
When it comes to the admission letter, the person Lin Xiang trusts the most is Yu Xiumei.
Yu Xiumei assured Lin Xiang, "You can rest assured, the admission letter will be delivered to you in full."
"You know my home phone number; once you settle down in Beijing, you must call me as soon as possible, okay?"
"Understood, Teacher Yu, thank you for your trouble."
"Why are you being so polite with me, child?"
To Yu Xiumei, Lin Xiang is not just Tiantian’s lifesaver, the benefactor to their entire family, but also her star student.
Moreover, if Lin Xiang performs normally in the exam and answers seriously in the politics section, she might just clinch the top spot in Luochuan County.
This would be a great honor for Town First Middle School!
After bidding farewell to those she needed to, Lin Xiang went back to the Li Hua Team.
Both she and Mrs. Lin are traveling far, so they must prepare an introduction letter; without it, they can’t take the train, and even if they reach Beijing by luck, they won’t be able to stay in a guest house.
The team leader had already learned about Lin Yun’s incident from Accountant Xu, so as soon as he saw Lin Xiang, he handed her the prepared introduction letter.
"I didn’t write the expiration date, you can fill it in yourself based on your situation in Beijing."
"Being outside is different from being at home, you need to be extra cautious about everything. Keep your guard up, and be careful not to be deceived..."
The team leader, like an old father sending his child off on a long journey, continued to nag Lin Xiang with advice.
Lin Xiang wasn’t impatient at all and responded to each piece of advice.
"Uncle, since I haven’t been back for a while, I don’t know how our bun business is doing now?"
The team leader’s face lit up with a smile, "Great, it’s doing extremely well!"
"The back kitchen of the cotton spinning factory has increased their orders, now needing four hundred buns a day. The food factory and the paper factory have also ordered buns from our workshop, and although it’s just two hundred a day, altogether it’s eight hundred!"
Initially, there were only about ten people, but now the bun workshop has expanded into a small team of thirty.
However, thirty people are still a bit short; the team leader plans to recruit more people after the busy farming season.
Now the bun business is booming, and team leaders from several teams have come to seek his advice, making him feel very proud.
All of this is thanks to Lin Xiang.
"I just provided the connections; the reason the three factories agreed to sign contracts with us is because our buns are genuinely delicious." Lin Xiang humbly said, "Team leader, I’ll call the team once I settle down in Beijing."
"Alright, alright." The team leader had tears in his eyes, "When you go out there, be extra careful about everything!"
When she returned to the town from the Li Hua Team, it was already five in the afternoon, and she went straight to the Welfare District, where Fifth Uncle had already helped set up the barbecue stall.
Even though she was leaving for Beijing tomorrow, she still wanted to do her duty for the last shift today.
However, since she was leaving early the next day, Lin Xiang closed the stall at eight o’clock.
Fifth Uncle, Fifth Aunt, and Aunt Ge accompanied her.
In the Ge family’s yard, Lin Xiang grilled all the unsold vegetables from today, filling up an entire table.
Fifth Aunt also cooked a large pot of maocai, inviting Aunt Ge to sit and eat together.
Lin Xiang couldn’t help but glance at the main house, "I’ll take some barbecue inside for Yuanyi. Yuanyi has never tasted my grilled food since I started selling it."
Chunya asked curiously, "Who is Yuanyi?"
"She’s Aunt Ge’s daughter."
Chunya was surprised, "Is she at home?"
"She’s been at home all along."
"But why have we never seen her since we arrived?"
Ever since Fifth Uncle’s family arrived at the Ge family, Ge Yuanyi never stepped out as long as they were around.
Lin Xiang had asked Ge Yuanyi when no one was paying attention, but Ge Yuanyi did not want to meet strangers.
Even though she knew they were Lin Xiang’s family, she didn’t want to force herself.
After all, the previous setbacks had left her with a significant psychological shadow.
Lin Xiang could understand her caution, so she never forced her.
However, since Lin Xiang was leaving the next day, she still wanted to bid Ge Yuanyi a proper farewell before leaving.
"Yuanyi is rather introverted and doesn’t enjoy interacting with strangers."
"Well..." Chunya asked cautiously, "Would our presence bother Yuanyi?"
Not only was Ge Yuanyi disturbed, but so was Ge Yuanxin.
But Aunt Ge didn’t think so, "Even if you didn’t come, they wouldn’t be willing to go out. My Yuanyi is familiar with Niuniu enough to say a few words, so you don’t need to take it to heart."
Chunya agreed, "Niuniu is truly likable."
Lin Xiang took a grilled fish, some spicy prawns, and a few skewers, and knocked on Ge Yuanyi’s door.
The house had only average sound isolation, so Ge Yuanyi could hear the conversations outside clearly.
"You’re leaving tomorrow?" Opening the door, Ge Yuanyi immediately asked Lin Xiang.
Lin Xiang replied truthfully, "Yes, my brother had an accident, and he needs family with him the most at a time like this, so my mom and I have to go to Beijing. If his condition is good, we’ll be back in a few days. If not, we might have to stay in Beijing."
There are only twenty days left until the end of August; if they returned, just the journey would take several days, which is quite a hassle.
However, she would have to come back personally to collect her admission letter, so no matter what, Lin Xiang planned to return once before the end of August, just a matter of sooner or later.
Lin Xiang pushed the tray of skewers forward, "Eat it while it’s hot, or it’ll taste bad cold. I specially grilled a turbot fish, which has fewer bones, so Brother Yuanxin can eat some too."
Ge Yuanyi, like a thoughtless robot, held the tray and looked at Lin Xiang with eyes filled with all sorts of complex emotions, yet she couldn’t verbalize any of them.
She didn’t want Lin Xiang to leave, always feeling that once Lin Xiang was gone, she’d have no pillar of strength.
How could Lin Xiang not understand Ge Yuanyi’s dilemma?
