Chapter 100 In my heart, you are more important than your brother.
Ren Dayong had connections at the Public Security Bureau, so Shen Yuzhu and Zhao Yue quickly resolved the matter. By the time they came out, it was completely dark. Zhao Yue walked to the side of the street first, trying to find a car, but Ren Dayong stopped her.
“I have a car here, come on, I’ll take you to the guesthouse.”
Shen Yuzhu and Zhao Yue followed his gaze and saw a pedal tricycle parked on the side of the road, covered with what appeared to be a layer of coal ash.
Shen Yuzhu: "......"
Zhao Yue: "......."
"Get in! Where are we going to find a ride at this hour? If you want to get back, it'll probably take you half an hour to walk!"
The police station was indeed quite far from the guesthouse, but when he said that, Shen Yuzhu felt a little dazed, as if he wasn't riding a coal-hauling tricycle, but a grand car.
Zhao Yue turned her head and gave Shen Yuzhu a pitiful look. Although she disliked this person very much, she didn't want to take another step now.
"Go up, go up. Go to bed early tonight, and hurry back to the army tomorrow. Hey, don't pout, don't whine, and don't tell your brother anything when you get back, understand?"
"Okay~!"
When the girl from Beijing gets coquettish, she's quite sweet and charming, making Ren Dayong chuckle along.
Shen Yuzhu was certain. Zhao Yue angrily took leave and went to the provincial library to find her, so as to keep watch over her brother.
But the result was obvious: the person wielding the shovel seemed to have no interest in digging into the corner; he wanted to dig into the obvious guardian.
Upon arriving at the guesthouse, Zhao Yue pulled Shen Yuzhu upstairs, giving Ren Dayong no chance to speak.
Ren Dayong, seeing her petty nature, laughed all the way as he rode his tricycle.
Once inside the room, Shen Yuzhu urged Zhao Yue to take a shower. After she went into the bathroom, Shen Yuzhu immediately went into her spatial dimension, packed several dishes in a lunchbox, took out four or five steamed buns, and placed them on the table.
After Zhao Yue finished washing up, she pushed open the door and was overjoyed to see the steaming food on the table.
"Oh, sister-in-law, did you go to buy food? That was so fast! It smells so good, sister-in-law."
"Are you hungry? Eat up, then rinse your mouth and go to sleep!"
"Mmm!"
Braised beef with greens, pork rib soup, hot and sour shredded potatoes, pickled cabbage with vermicelli and pork belly—Zhao Yue ate with gusto, her mouth never leaving her lips. Sure enough, following her sister-in-law meant getting meat to eat. No wonder Zhou Congsheng would run to the Chaoyang production team as soon as he had a holiday; it turned out he was looking for his sister-in-law to treat him to a good meal.
That scheming jerk never takes her along, and she doesn't eat much anyway!
"Sister-in-law, I can tell you really have something important to do. I'll listen to you and leave tomorrow."
"Okay, don't go back and tell your brother anything, okay? I'm doing fine here. Hmm... Ren Baobei is also my colleague. She's very capable. She helped expedite the publication of that report about Wang Liping last time. I think you two get along well. Maybe you can become good friends in the future!"
"I don't want to be friends with her. She just wants to steal you from me."
Shen Yuzhu: "......"
She's not part of a united front, what's there to fight over?!
However, seeing the little girl's nervous expression, she couldn't help but laugh out loud and pointed to the necklace around her neck.
"Look, this is all the good stuff your sister-in-law is giving to you and your brother... and Comrade Bai. Nobody else has it. You are our good sister. In my heart, even your brother can't compare to you. Look, during the New Year, your brother hadn't even thought of me yet, and you brought me all the good food and drinks. What a wonderful sister you are! I wouldn't trade you for mountains of gold and silver!"
Zhao Yue was coaxed into pouting and acting all coy.
The next morning, they left quickly. When Shen Yuzhu came out of the guesthouse, she immediately saw Ren Dayong standing by the tricycle.
Shen Yuzhu: "......."
Looking for Zhao Yue?
Ren Dayong's dark red face still looked a little unnatural, but he burst out laughing a moment later.
"Comrade Chen, look, I've figured it out, hehehe... Where's Zhao Yue? Still not up?"
"Zhao Yue has returned to her unit."
"..." Ren Dayong's face stiffened. How come this is different from what was agreed upon? Didn't we say we would go back together?
He thought that yesterday's talk about going back to the army was just a joke to coax him!
"How can you be like this? She's a young girl who came all this way to see you, and you didn't even let her have breakfast before kicking her out."
"She ate and left. I have other things to do, so I'll be going now. Comrade Ren, please feel free to do as you please!"
"oh!"
Ren Dayong didn't want to get involved with her any further. What if this woman misunderstood something and then told Zhao Yue something she shouldn't? He would be in a very difficult situation and his impression of her would be even worse.
Shen Yuzhu took a few steps forward, then thought for a moment and turned back to call out to Ren Dayong.
"Comrade Ren, please wait a moment."
"Comrade Shen has something to do. Well, my sister was just joking. What she said doesn't count. I don't really have any feelings for you. Please don't overthink it. That little brat just talks nonsense. Don't believe anything she says, okay?"
Shen Yuzhu: "...Don't worry, I didn't think too much about it. I just wanted to tell you that Zhao Yue is still young, like a child who hasn't grown up. So if she doesn't want to be in a relationship, please don't cause her any trouble. I don't want her to be unhappy."
"Don't worry, I definitely won't. People around here love their wives very much."
Shen Yuzhu took a deep breath, turned around and left. As expected of the family with Ren Baobei, there was no point in saying anything.
Library Director Shao was already waiting in his office. This translation task was very important, and almost all the excellent translators in the province had come. Everyone had barely had time to drink water all morning, as they were all focused on the materials.
During the lunch break, Ren Bao kept rubbing her temples, and her expression wasn't very pleasant.
Seeing that she was not feeling well, Shen Yuzhu secretly added a drop of spiritual spring water to the water she was drinking.
"Wow~, the water you poured is so delicious, Yuzhu. After drinking it, I feel refreshed, my back doesn't hurt anymore, my head isn't dizzy anymore, and I feel great."
"...I'm glad you're alright. What's wrong? I've noticed you've been frowning all morning."
"He's my boyfriend... um, my future boyfriend. I told him I was going to be busy today and we were supposed to have breakfast together, but I waited for ages and he never showed up. I'm so mad!"
"Maybe they have something to do. Don't think about it. We all need to work hard during this period. Eat well, rest well, and get enough rest so we can finish the mission as soon as possible."
"That's true. I heard from the curator that there's a huge bonus coming out after this translation project, hehehe..."
Are you short of money?
Why is it that from the moment I first met her until now, I always hear her talking about money?
"No, it wasn't me, it was my future boyfriend. He's had his eye on a watch for a long time, and I promised to buy it for him. I just bought him some clothes and stuff, but I don't have enough money right now. Once I get my bonus, I won't have to worry about it."
Ren Baobei's hands were clasped together so tightly they were almost twisted into a pretzel, and she didn't even notice Shen Yuzhu's face, which was contorted into a grimace.
Shen Yuzhu clicked her tongue, wondering whether she should tell her... spending money on a man would bring her bad luck for life!
