Chapter 889 Long Time No See
"Let them be, I'm not going to be friends with them anyway." Bai Qingxia replied seriously, sitting in her chair with a smile on her face, showing that she really didn't care.
Wei Zhiyu chuckled twice and handed her the carrot he had bitten. Bai Qingxia frowned and turned her head away: "I don't want it, give it to Azhen."
Ah Zhen looked disgusted: "I won't eat it either. Let's save it for Liang Jingfeng."
"What are you saying, you stinky Zhen! I'll stab you to death!" Wei Zhiyu exploded, grabbing a carrot and chasing after her.
At this moment, Chi Caocao seemed to have thought of something, and quickly took out two packs of green-packaged instant noodles from her suitcase and walked to Bai Qingxia.
Bai Qingxia: "You bought some too?"
Chi Caocao replied with a smile, "My grandma's shop has also stocked it. People in the village especially love to eat it. When I told them I knew someone who makes instant noodles, they didn't believe me."
Bai Qingxia held her hand: "Show them our group photo next time."
"Then they are even less likely to believe it, because there can't be such a good-looking person in the world making instant noodles."
"You naughty grass grass is joking with me."
"I don't!"
Bai Qingxia bent down and tickled her, and the dormitory immediately became chaotic, filled with the sounds of girls playing and laughing.
After careful consideration, Lu Yuanqiu and his companion decided to close Xia Yiwan Noodles shop at the school.
Many students have posted protests about this matter, but Lu Yuanqiu has not responded to them.
It's better to turn it off than to keep it on.
Firstly, Bai Qingxia no longer needs to make money from the shop. Secondly, once instant noodles become popular, many people will flock to the shop, and it will no longer be just about eating noodles. This will also cause other canteens in the school to go out of business.
It's a bit of a shame, but this is the road we came from, and there's nothing we can do about it.
Lu Yuanqiu and his friends' gathering place thus became the Big Ben Milk Tea Shop. Zhong Jincheng rented the second-floor apartment but only opened it to his friends. This was his most generous episode yet.
The milk tea shop also hired employees to replace Luo Wei's previous position. They thought it would be better to hire more than one, since students who liked to go to Xia Yiwanmian were using the milk tea shop as a meal replacement, and the number of customers was increasing. They couldn't afford to be short-staffed.
With more employees, Zhong Jincheng, the boss, became completely idle.
In the blink of an eye.
April 1st marks more than a month since the start of the new school term.
On the second floor of the milk tea shop, watching the male employee's retreating figure as he unwrapped a straw, Liang Jingfeng couldn't help but ask Zhong Jincheng, "Are all your employees men? Did you request that, or did Luo Wei request that?"
Zhong Jincheng looked at him and asked in return, "What do you think?"
The whole table burst into laughter.
Long Liandong glanced at Lu Yuanqiu's shoes and was in a good mood because Lu Yuanqiu was wearing the birthday present she had given him.
"Shall we go back together for Qingming Festival?" Lu Yuanqiu looked at Ruan Yueru beside him.
Ruan Yueru nodded: "Okay."
Three months may not be enough to heal the wounds in a person's heart, but at least Ruan Yueru is no longer as gloomy as she was a few days ago. She laughs when she talks and comes to parties, but there are also subtle changes in her. Lu Yuanqiu noticed that she seems to have stopped swearing.
"By the way, when are you four getting engaged? I'm getting impatient." Liu Wangchun slammed his hand on the table, immediately turning the topic to Lu Bai, Zheng Su, and the other two.
Long Liandong lowered her head to drink her milk tea, then looked up to look ahead.
Lu Yuanqiu: "We are waiting for them to make a decision."
Su Miaomiao: "What a coincidence, we've been waiting for you to make a decision."
Lu Yuanqiu: "Didn't we say we'd have to wait until Uncle Zheng was in China to do it?"
Zheng Yifeng explained, "My dad has already made it confirmed. He said that the matter in the United States will be settled after Children's Day, and he will stay in China after that."
"So? Summer vacation?" Lu Yuanqiu looked them over.
Liu Wangchun: "Since it's already been dragged out until summer vacation, why not just wait until Xiaxia's birthday in September?"
Bai Qingxia quickly waved her hand: "Don't worry about my birthday. It's not fair to Teacher Su and the others, and it's inconvenient after school starts."
She actually doesn't like discussing these things in front of others, but since it's already been brought up...
"Then let's do it during summer vacation."
Liu Wangchun: "Okay, during summer vacation, if anyone changes their mind again, I will..."
She sized up the four men, raised her fist, and after seeing Su Miaomiao staring directly at her, added, "...Besides Teacher Su and Xia Xia, you two gentlemen can think about the consequences."
Lu Yuanqiu glanced at them. Those two upright fists looked like they would only be licked on the battlefield, but that was just an appearance... He knew that Liu Wangchun and Bai Qingxia's fists were different in terms of hardness.
At that moment, both his and Bai Qingxia's phones suddenly vibrated.
The two of them picked it up and examined it in unison.
It was a message sent to them by Bai Songzhe, just one sentence.
Zhang Zhisheng voluntarily surrendered to the police about the incident that framed him years ago.
"We'll head out first, you two chat." Lu Yuanqiu quickly stood up, pushed his chair onto the table, and pulled Bai Qingxia's hand as they walked outside.
Zhong Jincheng: "Hey! Milk tea!"
Lu Yuanqiu ran back to get his and Bai Qingxia's milk tea.
At a time when Baek Song-cheol is at the center of a storm on the internet, this news is a timely boon.
Once outside, Lu Yuanqiu dialed Bai Songzhe's number. Bai Qingxia followed closely behind, carrying two cups of milk tea. Bai Songzhe answered the phone and said he was on his way to visit Zhang Zhisheng in prison.
With no time for casual conversation, Lu Yuanqiu had no choice but to hang up the phone.
"That's great." He turned to look at Bai Qingxia and said with a smile, "Your father can finally get rid of the infamy that has plagued him for so many years."
While Bai Qingxia was happy, she was also somewhat puzzled: "Why would you suddenly turn yourself in?"
“Back on the rooftop, I could tell he was thinking of turning himself in, but he was interrupted… Do you think there’s any chance he’ll reconcile with your father once Zhang Zhisheng is released from prison?”
Bai Qingxia's hair fluttered at her temples as she gently shook her head: "No, the grudge between him and our two families is too deep... I think my father went to see him this time to say goodbye to the past."
Lu Yuanqiu nodded.
Zhang Zhisheng committed manslaughter, and with this surrender, his sentence will not exceed 10 years. If he behaves well, he may even be released early.
But is he truly a purely evil person to the Bai family? After experiencing various emotional journeys, Lu Yuanqiu now has a different perspective.
...
In the meeting room, Bai Songzhe sat in front of the glass window and was stunned when he saw the person behind the glass.
Zhang Zhisheng's hair was shaved very clean, but you could vaguely see the white hair roots on it. He looked like he had aged ten years in an instant, with wrinkles around his eyes and a very weathered appearance.
After a moment of eye contact, Zhang Zhisheng forced a smile onto his face.
He picked up the phone inside, and Bai Songzhe, feeling somewhat conflicted, also reached out and picked up the phone.
Zhang Zhisheng's voice came through the phone.
"Brother Qing, it's been a long time."
"haven't seen you for a long time."
"Xiao Chong."
During the day, I thought about the plans for the side stories and suddenly had a strong withdrawal reaction. I guess I realized that the ending is not far away, and I may not be able to write the word count I expected for the last volume.
