Chapter 91 The Bookworm Gets into Trouble



I heard from Sister Yuanyuan that this person tried to sow discord between Manager Zhu and her?

Han Yu entered the state-run restaurant just in time. Seeing the figure sitting behind the counter, she paused for a moment, then greeted him casually, "Bu Ling, you're back? How is your brother?"

It would be best if she died, then no one would back up Bling, and they'd see how arrogant she could be then.

"Thank you, everything's fine," Bling said casually.

A fleeting glint of regret crossed Han Yu's eyes: "That's good, that's good!" He feigned genuine happiness for Bu Ling.

Bu Ling couldn't be bothered to look at his hypocritical act. She had to admit, Han Yu was truly skilled at manipulating Tan Xiao to this extent.

At least Buling has been watching him for so long, but she hasn't been able to find anything wrong with him, so she can only let this scumbag keep hanging around in front of her.

Seeing Bu Ling like this, Han Yu felt a strange sense of familiarity. Sensing her own thoughts, Han Yu's face darkened, she shook her head, and strode towards the kitchen.

Bling pouted, wondering when she could finally get rid of this eyesore.

How about we frame them?

Forget it, don't get your hands dirty with someone like that.

Grandpa Tan was still half an hour late. Upon seeing Bu Ling, he greeted her warmly, and Manager Zhu also...

Even the guests who came to eat today were greeted.

At noon, they hung up the "sold out" sign early, went to the kitchen, and ate their staff meals.

I haven't eaten this for a month, and I really miss it.

Today's staff meal consisted of cornbread buns and a bowl of cabbage and egg soup for each person.

After finishing the staff meal, it was time for a leisurely afternoon tea, but this time there were no sunflower seeds.

After all, Han Yu wasn't stupid. Once she realized it wasn't working, she naturally wouldn't be a sucker anymore.

That evening, after finishing the accounts, Bu Ling went home with Wu Yuanyuan, who was waiting for her.

When she got home, Buling first looked at Sangshen's door, which was still tightly closed. She wondered, "Hasn't she come back yet?"

Did something happen?

I want to go look for him, but I don't know where to look.

Only then did he realize that, apart from what mulberries were called, he knew absolutely nothing about him, and he suddenly felt a little unhappy.

I told Wu Yuanyuan, then pushed my bicycle back into the house.

In the evening, after dinner, Buling sat at the table and read for a while. It wasn't anything fancy, just a children's comic book, bought at a secondhand shop in Kyoto.

A whole stack for only one yuan, it's incredibly cheap! Buling bought it all. It's perfect for killing time like this.

In addition, she bought a whole set of high school textbooks from a secondhand store. The textbooks were in very good condition, clearly cherished possessions of their owner. It's unclear what had happened to cause them to consign their textbooks to the secondhand store.

A complete set of high school textbooks only cost two yuan, and Buling bought them anyway, just to pass the time. And if she ever had a sudden urge to take the college entrance exam, she'd have some study materials, right?

Even if she doesn't go to university, she can still make a profit by photocopying and selling the copies.

As for the novels she wanted to buy, those are all banned books nowadays and not allowed to exist.

After reading for a while, Buling gradually became engrossed. And you know what? This comic book was quite good; no wonder so many children liked it.

Mulberry still hasn't come back tonight.

What has Mulberry been doing these past two days?

The story begins on the day they returned.

Sangshen rode his bicycle home feeling dejected. Halfway there, he turned and went to the government building. He hadn't seen his brother for over a month, so he decided to stop by and pay his respects first.

When he arrived at the government building, his brother wasn't there. That shouldn't be the case; where could his brother be at this hour?

He walked around the building for a while, and finally knocked on the office door of the deputy director of the supply bureau, who was also Mo's sister-in-law's father.

"Enter!"

"Uncle Mo, it's me. I wanted to ask where my brother went. Why isn't he in the office?"

Mo Yinghuai looked up, saw it was Sangshen, and smiled: "It's Xiaoshen, come in quickly, would you like some tea?"

Sangshen closed the door and quickly stopped him, saying, "Uncle Mo, no need, no need. I'm here to see my brother. Do you know where he went?"

"Isn't Director Sang in his office? Did he go out? I didn't know that."

Sangshen frowned, thanked Deputy Director Mo, and returned to his brother's office.

After waiting for a while, his brother still hadn't returned. Unable to sit still any longer, he left the government building and rode his bike straight to the secondhand shop. Strangely, the bookworm wasn't there either, and the shop was locked.

He went to the black market again, hoping to try his luck and see if Xie Dong was there.

Fortunately, Xie Dong was there. He found Xie Dong in a house at the end of the black market, where he was making a deal. Sang Shen went in, and Xie Dong gave him a wink.

Mulberry immediately moved to a corner to minimize her presence.

Seeing the fresh vegetables being traded in the yard, he was somewhat surprised. Were there still vegetables this fresh? The roots were still covered in mud; they were clearly just picked from the ground.

About half an hour later, the transaction was completed. Everyone else, sensing the situation, left the courtyard, leaving only Sang Shen Xie Dong and the middle-aged man Bu Ling had met before.

"Uncle Mu, you go out too. I need to talk to Sang Shen about something."

The middle-aged man, Uncle Mu, nodded and left the courtyard without saying a word.

"Come with me!" Xie Dong said to Sang Shen again.

Sangshen followed him into the house and asked impatiently, "Dongzi, do you know where my brother and the bookworm went? Neither of them are here!"

Xie Dong poured him a glass of water and placed it in front of him before speaking with a serious expression: "The bookworm is in trouble!"

"What! What happened to the bookworm?" Sangshen, in no mood for water, pressed, "Why did something happen out of the blue?"
