Chapter 568 Want to Understand Her, Mingyu Dyes His Hair (Part 1 and 2)
The bell rang for the end of get out of class. Wan Xiutong said, "Jiang Jiang, let's go to the cafeteria together?"
"No, I'm going out to eat."
"Is that so... Then what do you want to drink? I'll go to the canteen later and bring it to you."
"A bottle of yogurt."
"Great."
Wan Xiutong walked with Liu Bowen and Lin Qiao.
…
Principal's office.
"...These are Jiang's previous monthly exam papers. Aside from a two-point deduction for his composition, all the others were full marks."
Mingyu was flipping through the test paper while listening to the principal with a smile on his face.
Seeing his interest, Hu Yongwei became more engaged in conversation. "Besides the regular school exams, Jiang also performs well in academic competitions. In international competitions like IPhO and IOI, she's won gold medals with full marks. Domestic media have dubbed her a 'genius girl,' and No. 1 Middle School has become quite famous. The admissions office predicts that our school will become a popular choice for applications next year, and it's all thanks to Jiang..."
Having said that, the principal couldn't stop smiling.
"Oh, by the way, Professor Xie noticed Jiang's talent in physics and asked him to participate in his experimental project. He just finished his project and returned to school the day before yesterday. I don't know what the results are yet."
Ming Yu paused and slowly raised his eyes: "Professor Xie? Xie Dingyuan?"
"Yes, you know him too?"
"Um."
The old principal chuckled, "As expected, the academic world is a circle. Everyone you go around in circles is familiar."
"Can you tell me more about Jiang Fuyue?"
"Of course!" Hu Yongwei was very happy.
Mingyu's eyes were filled with smiles.
Zhong Hao standing by was already numb.
Professor Ming laughed more times today than in all previous years combined. This is no longer something that can be described as "fantasy", it is not an exaggeration to say that it is "supernatural"!
When Jiang Fuyue knocked on the door and came in, the principal was talking about the "grudges and entanglements" between her and the grade director Zhao Tiejun, and the origin of the nickname "Hammer Sister".
Mingyu's laughter was low and deep, revealing great joy.
"What are you talking about so happily?"
The old principal said: "Speak of the devil, and he will appear."
Jiang Fuyue raised her eyebrows. Are you talking about her?
"Let's go, let's eat."
Ming Yu nodded slightly and said, "Principal Hu, we'll be leaving first. I'm really sorry for bothering you today."
"What are you talking about? That's too serious..."
After some polite exchanges, Hu Yongwei escorted the three of them to the door.
…
From the back door of No. 1 Middle School, go 50 meters forward and you will find Jiangji Pancake Shop.
Today it is Han Yunru's turn to guard this side, Cao Dazhuang and Cao Qingxiang take turns to come over to help.
At this time, there was a long line outside the store, and Mrs. Liu was busy coming in and out.
Seeing that Jiang Fuyue brought two guests, one of whom was in a wheelchair, he directly asked them to go through the back door to avoid trouble.
When we entered the store, the seats were already full.
Fortunately, there was a small compartment with a curtain between the front hall and the kitchen, with a table and a few chairs, which was usually used as a dining area for employees.
It's just right for three people at this moment.
"Mom." Jiang Fuyue went over to say hello.
"Yueyue? Why are you here?" Han Yunru was busy. She was startled when she heard her daughter's voice suddenly, but then her brows lit up with joy.
"Bring two friends over for dinner. Ask Uncle Dazhuang and the others to make something for them. I'll take them to the private restaurant after school tonight."
"Looks like an important friend?"
"Yeah." Jiang Fuyue nodded.
"Don't bother your uncle Dazhuang, I'll do it."
Jiang Fuyue smiled and took her arm, saying affectionately, "Thank you, Mom!"
"By the way, call your dad before you go and ask him to reserve the private room, otherwise there won't be any room left."
"I've already done that."
"Okay, go stay with your friend first. I'll be back soon. By the way, is there anything you should avoid eating?"
Jiang Fuyue thought for a moment and said, "No peppercorns, no onions."
"good."
While the mother and daughter were talking, Zhong Hao took out three napkins, stacked them together and wiped the table frantically.
"Is this a restaurant? It's so small and cramped, and the environment is terrible... The table is covered in grease, and I wiped it twice but it still didn't come clean... Is the food from this small shop really edible? Professor Ming, how about I go to the hotel and pack it for you?"
Ming Yu said expressionlessly, "If you're not used to it, you can eat at the hotel and pick me up in an hour."
"I... didn't mean that... I was just worried that you would get an upset stomach, and it would be hard to explain to Mr. Hong..." Zhong Hao hurriedly explained.
"My body doesn't need to be accountable to anyone. If you want to eat, be quiet. If you don't want to eat, you can leave now."
Zhong Hao pecked at the rice like a chicken: "I'll eat it!"
Then, Qiao Mimi stopped talking and started to struggle with the table and chairs, wiping them violently.
Ming Yu: "That's about right."
"……oh."
When Jiang Fuyue came back, Zhong Hao had already sat down quietly, continuing to act as an invisible person.
Ming Yu looked around and said, "Here..."
"My family's shop."
Hearing the word "my home", the man was dazed for a moment, but soon smiled with relief. She had a brand new life, a brand new identity, and was a brand new person from beginning to end.
That's good.
“It looks like business is good.”
"It's OK. There are people queuing up every day."
Ming Yu looked out through the curtain into the hall. A slender woman was busy running back and forth. "Who is that?"
"My mother."
Ming Yu was startled: "...Looks very young."
What he meant was: younger than me.
Jiang Fuyue didn't think much about it. After hearing this, she hummed softly, "Early forties."
It would have been fine if it hadn't been mentioned. But now that it was mentioned, Ming Yu, who already minded the age difference between him and Jiang Fuyue, felt hurt again. Now that his wound had been touched upon, he felt both sad and bitter.
Zhong Hao was also puzzled. What happened to Professor Ming?
Ever since he saw Jiang Fuyue's information at the research institute, he seemed like a different person. Not only did he agree to accept Mr. Hong as a student, he also came to Linhuai in person. Now he treats this young girl with special favor and even smiles more often.
You know, Professor Ming is a well-known "living devil" in the institute. Young researchers who have just come in may be scared by his cold face and have psychological trauma, so they will avoid him from then on.
But now...
Zhong Hao glanced at the professor with gentle eyes. If it weren't for the huge age gap between him and Jiang Fuyue, he would have suspected that Professor Ming fell in love with this girl at first sight.
"The food is here—" Mrs. Liu came forward, "It's freshly cooked and hot."
As he spoke, he put the food on the table with swift movements.
Place a bowl of rice in front of the last person.
"Yueyue, have you seen enough? If not, you can still do it."
Four meat dishes, two vegetable dishes and one soup are more than enough for three people.
"That's enough. Thank you, Sister Liu."
"Then I'll go help out front. Call me if you need anything."
"good."
Jiang Fuyue handed the chopsticks to Mingyu: "Want to try it?"
"Um."
Zhong Hao looked at the home-cooked dishes in front of him. The dishes looked decent, but he couldn't find any obvious faults. However, they weren't particularly amazing either.
Just...it's okay.
But the next second, when he picked up a piece of tofu and put it into his mouth, he was stunned.
I immediately picked it up again.
sky!
So tender! So smooth! And most importantly, very tasty!
One bite and you’ll get a rich and colorful burst of flavor.
It is sour and sweet with a hint of sea salt, which is particularly refreshing.
"Hey, hey, hey...what's the name of this dish? I've never eaten it before. Can tofu be cooked like this?"
Mingyu also looked curious.
Jiang Fuyue: "Sea salt scrambled eggs stuffed with tofu."
Zhong Hao: "This is so delicious!"
The meal took less than half an hour.
During this time, Jiang Fuyue and Ming Yu ate and chatted politely.
Zhong Hao just...
Just become a foodie.
I added rice three times and each bowl was full.
He ate almost all of the two plates of meat and the dish of tofu.
When he realized what was happening after eating, he was embarrassed himself——
"S-Sorry, these dishes are so delicious, I..." He scratched his head awkwardly, "I couldn't control myself."
After the meal, Mrs. Liu also brought dessert.
As the weather gets colder and winter is approaching, the popular sweet soups in summer are no longer suitable for sale, so Han Yunru launched desserts at the right time.
Just like the private dishes, they are all limited in quantity.
It’s made in the bakery over there and then transported here by car. The transportation cost increases, and it’s impossible to send it for free, so it’s put directly on the shelves for sale.
I didn't expect it to be so popular.
Today, desserts have become one of Jiang Ji’s specialties.
Han Yunru made an indelible contribution.
Zhong Hao: "This is delicious too! I never eat sweets, but I didn't expect that... hehe... I can't stop eating it."
Ming Yu also nodded repeatedly to show his agreement.
Jiang Fuyue had to go to class in the afternoon and couldn't stay with him for long. Mingyu happened to be going to the Municipal Physics Research Center to do some work, so the two of them made an appointment to meet at the school gate after school.
Ming Yu watched her leave and was unable to come back to his senses for a long time.
I don't know how long it took, "Zhong Hao, help me find a barber shop."
"Do you want a haircut? I'll contact them right away."
“Not a haircut.”
"ah?"
Ming Yu: "I want to dye my hair."
Two updates together, 3,000 words.
There will be more at twelve o'clock - beep beep! Shura Field Alert!
By the way, I'm asking for a monthly ticket, love~
