Xu Chunmai ignored Gao Ning and walked with Luo Jingtong toward the bus stop.
A car suddenly stopped in front of Xu Chunmai, blocking her way.
Yu Wenyuan got out of the car, looking quite surprised.
"Xu Chunmai?"
Gao Ning immediately walked over and said, "Wen Yuan, why are you so late? My feet are aching from waiting."
Yu Wenyuan quickly went to help Gao Ning, but his eyes never left Xu Chunmai.
Luo Jingtong glanced at Yu Wenyuan and asked, "Who are you?"
Yu Wenyuan then noticed Luo Jingtong. He pondered for a moment, "You are Luo Jingtong?"
Luo Jingtong said, "Sorry, I don't know you."
Yu Wenyuan smiled and extended his right hand. "My father knows your second uncle. I've seen you in his office before."
Luo Jingtong rolled his eyes. "How could my second uncle possibly know you?"
After saying that, he looked at Xu Chunmai and said, "Sister-in-law, let's go."
Yu Wenyuan glanced at the two figures as they left, then suddenly smiled and said to Gao Ning, "This Xu Chunmai, she doesn't seem to really like her man, does she? Otherwise, why is she so close to Luo Jingtong?"
Gao Ning didn't explain much; she simply asked softly, "Is Luo Jingtong's second uncle a very powerful person?"
Yu Wenyuan narrowed his eyes. "The head of the Dongcheng branch of the Public Security Bureau."
As Gao Ning sat in the car, she began to feel uneasy.
Luo Jingtong's second uncle is actually the director of the Dongcheng branch of the Public Security Bureau. So why does he take orders from Fu Linchuan?
What exactly is their relationship?
What exactly is Fu Linchuan's background?
After Fu Linchuan and the others arrived at the hospital, Chen Fa stood at the door, seemingly unwilling to go in.
But the police officers were all there, the report had been filed, and everything that needed to be done had been done. How could they prevent Chen Fa from going in?
Chen Fa clutched his stomach. "Officer, my stomach hurts. I need to go to the restroom."
Fu Linchuan stopped the person, "Whose food did you eat to cause this stomachache?"
Chen glared angrily at Fu Linchuan, "Is it any of your business?"
“Chen Fa, let me tell you, whether you go to this hospital or not won’t affect the truth of the matter. Before you’ve investigated with the doctor, you might as well confess first. Remember, confession is lenient, resistance is severe. Tell me, who instructed you to do this!”
The police officer stared at Chen Fa and said, "Comrade Fu Linchuan is right. If you confess now, you can still be treated leniently."
Chen Fa immediately sat down on the ground, tears streaming down his face. "I...I admit it, I was bewitched and wanted to spend that little bit of money. I didn't go to his shop to eat noodles, I didn't eat anything."
Fu Linchuan squatted down. "No one instructed you to do this?"
Chen made a tough decision: if he took the money and then exposed the person, everything would be over.
"No one instructed me; I just wanted to scam more money."
Fu Linchuan realized that he definitely wouldn't get any information from him here.
The police officer said to Fu Linchuan, "We will take Chen Fa back for questioning. If there are any issues afterward, please cooperate, Comrade Fu."
"Okay, I will definitely cooperate."
After Chen Fa was taken away, Fu Linchuan checked the time and went back to the noodle shop first, just to put Fu Linping at ease.
Fu Linping finally breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Fu Linchuan return.
"With Chen Fa's meddling, we didn't do any business today."
Fu Linchuan went to the kitchen and saw the freshly braised food that had been prepared that day. In this weather, it wouldn't keep well.
"Pack the things and send them to the orphanage."
Fu Linping didn't even ask why; he quickly told the waiter to start packing and loading it into the car.
Fu Linchuan thought for a moment, "Brother, go contact the people at the newspaper and go to the orphanage."
This time, Fu Linping didn't understand. "Why are we going to the orphanage, and why is the newspaper also going to the orphanage?"
Fu Linchuan said, “Things have escalated like this today. Although the Industry and Commerce Bureau came to inspect and found that our food and hygiene were fine, you have to understand that good news doesn’t travel far, but bad news travels fast. So many people buy newspapers. If we go to the orphanage to do charity work and give those children meat for free, the newspapers will definitely report it extensively, which will benefit our noodle shop.”
"Furthermore, if we can't sell our goods today, we either have to sell them cheaply, give them away for free, or just throw them away. Ingredients are precious, and if you sell them cheaply or give them away for free, people may not necessarily praise you. Some people might even take the opportunity to kick you when you're down and say there's something wrong with your goods. Or, if you sell them cheaply or give them away today, but don't give them away tomorrow, they might turn around and accuse you of something else."
Fu Linping understood immediately. "Da Chuan, you're really quick-witted. I'll go right now."
And so, Fu Linchuan and his group drove to the nearest orphanage with all the braised meat and side dishes they had prepared that day.
When Fu Linchuan arrived at the door, he went straight to the old man guarding the gate and said, "Uncle, I want to see your director. I run a noodle shop, and I made a batch of meat that I'd like to give to the children at the orphanage for free."
Upon hearing this, the old man quickly said, "Please wait a moment, please wait a moment, I'll go find the dean right away."
Upon learning that someone was bringing meat to the children at the orphanage, the director arrived quite quickly.
"Hello, I am the director of the orphanage, my surname is Liu."
Fu Linchuan extended his right hand. "Hello, Dean Liu."
"These are braised meats and side dishes from my shop. I came here today specifically to help the children here get some extra nutrition."
The dean looked at the things Fu Linchuan brought and the documents Fu Linchuan took out, and was deeply moved.
“Mr. Fu, you are such a kind person. On behalf of all the children in the orphanage, thank you.”
Fu Linchuan asked the waiter to move the things inside.
Fu Linchuan didn't linger. "Dean Liu, my shop is easy to find. I'm still studying at Tsinghua and Peking Universities. If you have any questions, you can come to the school and find me directly. I'll try my best to send some meat to the children every month."
Dean Liu grasped Fu Linchuan's hand and thanked him repeatedly, "Thank you, Boss Fu, thank you so much."
You know, the children in the orphanage are very pitiful. Meat is so precious, where would we get so much money to keep cooking meat for them?
During holidays and festivals, it's considered good if you can have a decent meal.
The meat smells delicious, let alone tastes good. In her eyes, Fu Linchuan is practically a great philanthropist.
Not long after Fu Linchuan left, people from the newspaper arrived.
"Dean Liu, may I ask if it's true that a Chunmai Noodle Shop is giving away free meat here?"
When Dean Liu saw that the newspaper staff had arrived, he quickly recounted what Fu Linchuan had done.
"Come in and see how much the children are enjoying their food!"
The aroma of braised meat filled the air, and the children ate it with gusto, their mouths dripping with oil.
"Boss Fu said he'll try to send meat to the children once a month from now on. What a kind person he is!" Dean Liu was so moved that his eyes reddened.
The newspaper staff took photos and interviewed some children. They stayed for quite a while before leaving.
As they left the orphanage, the leader said, "We need to write a good report tonight. This is a news story about a good deed, and it needs to be published tomorrow. We can't let good people be discouraged; they are role models to learn from!"
