After being reborn, the aloof female CEO became a paranoid.

Zhou Yu's heart tightened. Although Shen Shuqing had mentioned before that he and Miaomiao wouldn't stay in one place for long, he didn't expect it to be so urgent this time.

It seems that those looking for them are already closing in.

Shen Shuqing looked at Zhou Yu with a complicated expression: "What...are you planning to do?"

Zhou Yu hesitated for a moment, then suddenly raised his head: "I want to go with you, is that alright?"

Upon hearing this, Miaomiao immediately peeked out from behind Shen Shuqing, wrapped her arms around Zhou Yu's neck, and said in a coquettish tone:

"Dad, let's take my older brother with us. He has no home, he's so pitiful. And... I don't want to be separated from him!"

Shen Shuqing frowned, but seeing Miaomiao's expectant eyes, his heart softened.

"It's not that it's impossible, but... this time I plan to take Miaomiao north, which will be further and further away from Yuncheng. Are you really sure about this?"

Zhou Yu nodded without hesitation: "I've thought it through."

He just wanted to get as far away from Yuncheng as possible, and going north suited his wishes perfectly.

“Alright…” Shen Shuqing sighed, “Then in these three days, we’ll pack our things and set up our stall at the market one last time to save up some money for the journey. We’ll need money to settle down in the north.”

“Okay, I’ll take on more jobs online,” Zhou Yu replied. “You and Miaomiao go to the market tomorrow, I’ll get everything ready at home first.”

Actually, Zhou Yu didn't expect to earn much money from the online jobs at first, but to his surprise, the client was very satisfied with the first modeling work he completed, and even recommended several clients to him.

Gradually, he took on more and more of these small jobs, and his income became quite considerable.

“However… I’ve always been curious,” Shen Shuqing suddenly changed the subject, “the models you build on the computer always have a small mark on them. Does that have any special meaning?”

Upon hearing this, Zhou Yu's heart skipped a beat, and his expression froze instantly.

That was a little habit he developed in his previous life because of Xu Xinran; he would leave that mark on every model he built based on her.

Unexpectedly, they added it again as usual this time.

He took a deep breath, trying to make his tone sound natural: "Ah... well, it doesn't mean anything special, it's just... just a personal habit."

"Oh, I see." Shen Shuqing seemed oblivious to Zhou Yu's unusual behavior and nodded. "It's good that there won't be any trouble."

Zhou Yu quickly shook his head: "Don't worry, it should be fine. Anyway, we're leaving in three days."

Xu Xinran wouldn't have seen it by chance; he only works with small clients and has no dealings with the Xu family.

Although he said that, Zhou Yu was still a little uneasy inside...

……

The next morning, Shen Shuqing and Miaomiao got up early to go to the market.

The market was not close to where they lived, more than an hour's drive away, so they had to leave early to get a good spot.

Zhou Yu rubbed his bloodshot eyes and forced himself to see them off.

Seeing this, Shen Shuqing frowned slightly, her concern tinged with a hint of reproach: "Did you work through the night again last night? How can your body handle this?"

Zhou Yu gave a wry smile and waved his hand: "It's alright, I know what I'm doing. We only have one day left, so every little bit helps with the travel expenses."

Miaomiao listened intently from the side, her little face filled with worry.

She tugged at Zhou Yu's sleeve and said in a childish voice, "Big brother, come with us to the market! It's so much fun there, with lots of delicious food and fun things to do!"

Before Zhou Yu could respond, Shen Shuqing interrupted, "Miaomiao, stop fooling around. Your brother was so tired last night, he needs to rest."

Miaomiao pouted, seemingly a little unwilling: "But, big brother has been here for so long, and we haven't gone out to play yet."

Zhou Yu squatted down and gently patted Miaomiao's head: "Miaomiao, be good. You go to the market with Daddy. I'll stay home and pack everything up and cook your favorite dishes. We'll wait for you to come back."

Miaomiao nodded as if she understood, a hint of disappointment flashing in her eyes.

"Okay then, I'll bring you back some fun things."

At the market, Shen Shuqing's stall was doing brisk business, and he sold more than half of his handicrafts in no time. Miaomiao ran around the stall, extremely excited.

Suddenly, Miaomiao stopped in front of a dough figurine vendor's stall, staring intently at the lifelike dough figurines.

"Dad, look at this dough figurine, doesn't it look like my big brother?" Miaomiao said, pointing to a dough figurine.

Shen Shuqing took a look and indeed found it somewhat similar: "If you like it, buy it."

Miaomiao happily took the dough figurine and carefully held it in her hands: "I'm going to give this to my big brother, he'll definitely like it!"

However, in a corner not far away, several burly men were looking around, seemingly searching for something...
