Bai Ruozhen and Gu Changqing in the room quickly separated upon hearing Gu Changlan's voice. Bai Ruozhen was so embarrassed that she turned her head away and refused to look at Gu Changqing. Gu Changqing was thick-skinned and pulled Bai Ruozhen's arm and said, "Then I'm leaving."
"Yeah." Bai Ruozhen responded without turning around.
Gu Changqing laughed and went out to close the door. After a long while, Gu Changlan came in. Gu Changlan clicked her tongue twice, "You two are really..."
Bai Ruozhen was very embarrassed, his face flushed, "I'm sorry, Fourth Sister."
Gu Changlan burst out laughing. "What's there to be sorry about? Look at what delicious food I bought."
"Pork ribs?" Bai Ruozhen asked in surprise, "Let's make braised pork ribs."
Gu Changlan was amused. "I've been waiting for you to say that."
However, Gu Changlan felt embarrassed to do nothing, so she diligently washed the ribs and then asked Bai Ruozhen to do it.
We use a gas stove here, so there is no need to worry about the fire. While Bai Ruozhen was preparing the ribs and waiting for them to be stewed, some women in the corridor also started cooking.
After a while, the aroma came out of the pot. The women sniffed and thought it was delicious. Gu Changlan looked at her own pot proudly and then at Bai Ruozhen who was carefully observing the dish. The more she thought about it, the prouder she became.
The ribs were ready, and Gu Changlan brought the pot back to the house amid everyone's envy. The two of them ate the ribs clean with big white steamed buns.
When they went to bed, they talked for half the night with their heads close together. The next morning, they were woken up by a knock on the door.
Gu Changlan yelled at the top of her lungs, "Wait."
"It must be Gu Changqing! How annoying! He's up so early." Gu Changlan muttered as she put on her clothes and pulled the drowsy Bai Ruozhen up. "Your boyfriend is here! Hurry up and get up."
Bai Ruozhen was dragged away by Gu Changqing after getting up without having a meal. When they got outside, Gu Changqing took out a big bun and soy milk from his bag and handed them to Bai Ruozhen, "Eat it, and then you can leave."
Bai Ruozhen was speechless and said, "Why didn't you give it to Fourth Sister just now?"
Gu Changqing snorted, "Why give it to her? It's a waste."
Bai Ruozhen looked at him speechlessly, sighed for a while, and started eating. While eating, he saw Gu Changqing looking at him, so he asked, "Why are you looking at me? Aren't you going to eat?"
Gu Changqing smirked, "How about you let me have a bite of yours?"
Eat her?
Bai Ruozhen raised an eyebrow and looked at him, thinking that she had been too indulgent towards Gu Changqing recently and that she hated him more and more. Bai Ruozhen glanced at the half-eaten bun left in her hand, and then ate it under Gu Changqing's enthusiastic gaze.
"Stingy." Gu Changqing took one out of his bag and ate it himself, then got on his bike. "Come on, I'll take you to school."
Bai Ruozhen sat in the back seat and drove in the cool morning breeze to Yancheng Experimental Middle School.
Bai Ruozhen saw a familiar figure from a distance, and when he looked over, it was indeed Gu Xiaoli.
Gu Xiaoli has been living on campus and rarely goes out. Today she came out specially to welcome her master. When she thought that they would be able to meet often in the future, Gu Xiaoli was happy and excited. She didn't sleep well last night and came here early in the morning without eating.
Bai Ruozhen was very happy when he saw that it was Gu Xiaoli, "Brother Changqing, it's Xiaoli."
When Gu Changqing saw his beloved sister clearly, his face immediately turned dark. She was so annoying. This sister was really tactless. Didn't she see that he was acting well, but she suddenly ran over? What's worse is that his girlfriend actually likes his sister.
I have to say, everything about his partner is good except his choice in friends. Look, he actually found someone like Gu Xiaoli. Tsk tsk, if Gu Xiaoli wasn't his sister, he wouldn't bother with her.
No matter how unwilling Gu Changqing was, the bicycle arrived. Gu Xiaoli very attentively helped Bai Ruozhen get off the bicycle, and then the two of them held hands and started chattering.
Gu Changqing looked at the two people's clasped hands and felt it was extremely annoying. Why was it so disgusting?
"Fifth brother, what are you thinking about? Come on, I'll take you to find Uncle Xu."
When Gu Changqing looked up, he saw Gu Xiaoli pulling his girlfriend's hand with a provocative look on her face. What was infuriating was that he couldn't even snatch his girlfriend's hand back in public. It was so infuriating.
Bai Ruozhen smiled secretly at his depressed look, "Brother Changqing, why don't you go to work? Xiaoli can take me there."
But her understanding made Gu Changqing very angry. "No, I promised to take you there." He took a few quick steps forward.
Gu Xiaoli raised her eyebrows at Bai Ruozhen, and they smiled at each other.
Gu Changqing didn't know what the two were laughing at, so he pushed his bicycle and walked in front.
After arriving at Xu Fugui's office and completing the paperwork for Bai Ruozhen, Gu Changqing was about to go to work. Seeing Bai Ruozhen and Gu Xiaoli's excited faces, Gu Changqing sighed and walked away shaking his head.
Xu Fugui said, "Come on, I'll take you to the cafeteria."
The school had a dedicated cafeteria. Xu Fugui led the two of them through many winding paths to a large hall where many students were eating. Pointing to the window, Xu Fugui said, "Since you've just arrived, I'm sure you'll be asked to get food, wash vegetables, or cook. But the people I bring with me generally don't dare bully you. If someone does, don't hold it in and tell me."
"Well, thank you, uncle." Bai Ruozhen nodded with a smile. It's good to have a backer. She is not someone who can suffer a loss. Besides, her cooking skills are so good, she also wants to be a chef.
Xu Fugui was very satisfied and led them through a door. Inside was the cafeteria kitchen. Except for a few chefs, the others were idle. When they saw Xu Fugui come in, they stood up and greeted him, "Hey, Director Xu."
Xu Fugui nodded and smiled, "Old Li, this is my niece Bai Ruozhen. She came from the provincial capital to work in the countryside. She has good cooking skills, so I arranged her to work in the cafeteria. Please take good care of her in the future."
