Chapter 11: Delivering Meals "This is our world for two, please do not disturb us."...
The Yu family left in disgrace.
He Lan Si watched this funny scene and before he could start to make fun of it, he heard Yu Jingmo say, "This is just a world for two. Please don't disturb us."
“…”
Tian Ruan's face turned red, and he pretended to be calm: "Mr. He, you should go home for dinner."
He Lan Si shrugged, "Boss Yu and I have something serious to discuss, kid, leave it alone."
Tian Ruan: "...I'm not a child."
He Lan Si: "Then go and blow some pillow talk for me."
Yu Jingmo said: "This is a matter between us husband and wife, no one else should worry about it."
"Okay. Let's talk about it..."
Yu Jingmo interrupted: "Go back and tell your father that if we don't raise funds within half a year, the capital chain will be broken, and then it will be too late for me to take over. It's better to choose a tree to live in than to be surrounded by wolves. You should understand this principle."
Helans nodded, "So I just want to talk..."
“The original proposal remains unchanged.”
“…”
He Lans laughed angrily: "Yu Jingmo, you are the biggest wolf."
Yu Jingmo remained calm and said, "Thank you for the compliment."
He Lans waved goodbye and threw a wink to Tian Ruan before leaving: "Goodbye~"
Tian Ruan shuddered, turned his face away and ignored him.
It's lunch time.
Aunt Liu said: "I thought there would be a lot of people staying for dinner, so I made a little more..."
Tian Ruan looked at the untouched dishes at the end of the table and suddenly had an idea: "Why not send it to Yu Shang? He should be finished in half an hour."
Aunt Liu was shocked: "How can you let the young master eat leftovers?"
“I haven’t eaten these dishes.”
Aunt Liu was embarrassed to say that the delicious dishes that were not finished usually fell into the mouths of the servants.
Tian Ruan asked Yu Jingmo for his opinion, "Is it okay?"
Yu Jingmo wiped his lips elegantly with a napkin and asked calmly, "You're not going to persuade me anymore?"
Tian Ruan: “…”
Aunt Liu looked at the young couple and couldn't help laughing: "Madam, please play it again tonight."
Seeing Tian Ruan's ears turn red, Yu Jingmo finally let him go and said, "I'll take you there."
So Tian Ruan prepared a few dishes, rice and pumpkin soup, and filled two large lunch boxes.
Yu Jingmo looked at the lunch box that was as big as a washbasin, "...Yu Shang probably can't eat so much."
Tian Ruan: "He can share it with his classmates." He almost said the name of the protagonist.
The driver drove to the city’s only aristocratic school, Deyin High School.
In Tian Ruan's imagination, no matter how rich an aristocratic school is, it will not be much different from a high school. But when he arrived at the school gate, he was dumbfounded. All he saw were luxury cars.
Rolls-Royce, Maserati, Ferrari, Lamborghini, Porsche, Bugatti, Pagani...none of them costs less than one million.
There were many descriptions of aristocratic schools in the original book, but Tian Ruan had never been able to imagine what they were like. Now that he had seen it with his own eyes, the magnificent facade alone was enough to dazzle him, and the smell of wealth was overwhelming.
Tian Ruan's eyes were deeply hurt. This was not a school at all, but a castle for princes and princesses.
The guard was also dressed like a knight in a fairy tale, with the metal badge of the aristocratic college on his shoulder. He strode over and said humbly, "Mr. Yu, Mrs. Yu, please go to the principal's reception room."
Obviously, Yu Jingmo's secretary had already given notice in advance.
Tian Ruan thought that he just needed to call Yu Shang out and bring him a meal, but he didn't expect that he would have to socialize with him... Fortunately, he is not socially anxious, and he has seen people like the principal in real life.
As one of the top three students in his grade in high school, Tian Ruan often received praise from the principal.
The aristocratic school is so big that it could probably be merged with four or five ordinary high schools. There are three fountains on the huge open-air lawn. The central fountain is the largest, with a water column as high as ten meters, spreading out like a canopy. A statue of Emperor Wenchang is enshrined on it.
Wenchang Emperor is the folk god in charge of fame, wealth and power. He is enshrined on campus, and countless students go to worship him every day. This statue can be said to be the most famous scenery of Deyin High School.
Even Tian Ruan wanted to worship when he saw her...
Just like in the novel, the principal of Deyin High School is a thin, middle-aged woman wearing rimless glasses. Her surname is Li, and everyone calls her Principal Li. There is also a vice president and financial director who has a goatee and his name is Director Hu.
The two principals were waiting in the reception room. When Yu Jingmo walked in, the two of them greeted him with a smile and looked at Tian Ruan.
"This must be your wife, right?" Principal Li said with a smile.
Yu Jingmo: "Yes, my wife brought food to my son."
"She is truly virtuous and of good character."
Tian Ruan: “…” Is it because you’ve become more literary after going to school?
Yu Jingmo is indeed good at speaking to different people in different ways, and speaking differently in different environments. This is also the basic skill of a businessman. "Principal Li has been teaching and educating people for many years, so he naturally has a unique vision."
This was a disguised way of praising Tian Ruan, but unfortunately Tian Ruan was not smart enough to hear it.
Principal Li boasted to Yu Jingmo: "Yu Shang is a very talented kid. He is always ranked first in his grade and is also the president of the student union. He will definitely get into Tsinghua or Peking University."
Yu Jingmo: "I plan to send him to an Ivy League business school for further studies for a few years, and he can take over the family business when he comes back."
"That's natural."
Then the two chatted for a while about some policies recently implemented by the school. Tian Ruan was bored and occasionally interjected a word or two while drinking a sip of black tea.
In the huge reception room, there is an entire wall of bookshelves filled with many English books. Tian Ruan took a quick look and found that most of the content was the same as in the Yu family's book.
Director Hu finally found a place to use his skills. He said, "These books were donated by Mr. Yu. If you are interested, you are welcome to read them anytime."
Tian Ruan thought, "Come anytime?"
"Mr. Yu's shares in Deyin High School are naturally open to Madam at any time."
"Oh, thank you." Tian Ruan felt a little disappointed for some reason.
There was a knock on the door.
"Come in." said Principal Li.
When the door opened, the first thing that came into view was the white school uniform with all the silver buttons buttoned neatly, leaving only a hint of misty blue visible at the collar. The boys at Deyin High School wear white pants of the same color, while the girls wear indigo short skirts. As long as the heights are similar, they all look like they have long legs at first glance.
Yu Shang was a leader among the long-legged army. He reached the sofa area in just two or three steps. "Dad, principal, what's going on?"
Yu Jingmo pointed at the lunch box on the coffee table and said, "Your dad was afraid that you would starve to death, so he brought you a meal."
Yu Shang: “…”
Tian Ruan was a little embarrassed: "Auntie Liu cooked too much food and couldn't finish it, so I brought some for you."
Yu Shang lowered his eyes, "Is this one point?"
"It's okay, you can share it with those who need it."
Yu Shang's expression changed slightly, "Who do you need?"
Tian Ruan was afraid of being suspected if he revealed too much, so he said, "A stray cat is fine."
Yu Shang picked up two heavy lunch boxes and said, "Okay, I'll go to the restaurant then."
Listen, the canteens in aristocratic schools are not called canteens, they are called restaurants.
Tian Ruan remembered that in the original book, it was written that the most famous dish in Deyin High School's Chinese restaurant was squirrel fish, which was expensive. The protagonist liked to eat fish, but he could only save money and go to eat it once a month.
"...Let's go to the restaurant and take a look." Tian Ruan suggested. He wanted to meet the protagonist.
Yu Jingmo did not refuse.
Principal Li personally took them to the restaurant and invited them to have a simple meal together.
Yu Jingmo declined: "We have already eaten, we are just inspecting."
Director Hu smiled and said, "Mr. Yu, you are a little nervous when you say that."
"The scale of Deyin's restaurant is based on the food of a four-star hotel. Why should we be so nervous?"
"Of course." Director Hu wiped the sweat from his forehead. "Mr. Yu is a precious person. Don't laugh if you see fried rice or something like that. These are all requests from students and arranged after approval by the Student Union."
Yu Jingmo glanced at Yu Shang who was one step behind and laughed: "Food is the first necessity of the people. Since they like it, there is nothing to be amused about it."
Director Hu: “That’s right, haha.”
Yu Shang had no expression on his face. He looked like a monk begging for food as he held the lunch box.
Tian Ruan thought, it’s because the protagonist likes to eat fried rice... but can’t afford fish, so of course the protagonist has to find a way to arrange fried rice and give warmth to the protagonist without making a sound.
Tian Ruan glanced at Yu Shang thoughtfully. It is true that one cannot judge a person by his appearance.
A vein jumped on Yu Shang's forehead and he looked away. He knew without asking that this young father had something strange in his mind.
Boom! ! ——Glass was blasted everywhere not far away, and students were screaming in agony.
Everyone was shocked by the noise and stopped in their tracks. Principal Li looked at the huge restaurant building in disbelief, "What, what's going on?"
Immediately afterwards, a large group of people ran out of the restaurant on the first floor, shouting in panic: "The gas exploded!!"
“…”
Before anyone could react, Yu Shang stuffed the lunch box into Tian Ruan's hand and rushed towards the restaurant.
"Yu Shang!" Yu Jingmo didn't have time to catch him and could only hurriedly walk towards the restaurant after the explosion.
Tian Ruan: “!!!”
In the original book, there was indeed a gas explosion at Deyin High School.
The explosion did not cause any casualties, but the scene was scary enough when a group of young men and women saw flames floating in the air, burning their skirts and hair, and glass flying everywhere.
As for why such an event was written, it was of course to promote the emotional development of the protagonists.
At that extremely critical moment, everyone else was fleeing from the restaurant, but Yu Shang did not retreat but instead rushed into the restaurant alone, helped the injured protagonist who was trapped in the glass on the floor, and rescued him despite the risk of a secondary explosion.
Tian Ruan was not particularly excited when reading the article, because he knew the law that the protagonist is immortal. It was only when he faced the explosion scene that he began to panic.
More importantly, Yu Jingmo was not involved at all in the original text.
Now it was Tian Ruan who suggested going to the restaurant, so Yu Jingmo appeared here. They are not the protagonists, and there is no law that the protagonists will not die. If Yu Jingmo goes in now, what if he encounters a second explosion——
"Yu Jingmo!" Tian Ruan shouted.
Yu Jingmo paused, turned around and said, "Don't follow me."
Tian Ruan ran over with the lunch box and grabbed him, "Don't go."
"Yu Shang is inside."
"He's fine."
"How do you know?"
"I just know it." Tian Ruan couldn't hide his anxiety because Yu Jingmo was pushing his hand away. "He will be out soon."
"He's my son. I can't just ignore him." Yu Jingmo frowned, his eyes cold.
Tian Ruan gritted his teeth and suddenly hugged Yu Jingmo from behind, "Don't go!"
Yu Jingmo: "...let go."
Tian Ruan's mind was in a mess, and he said whatever came to his mind: "If you die, I will be a widow. I don't want to be a widow!"
“…”
