Chapter 141
Jiang Yunu carefully gave directions to the guests who were visiting the dilapidated street for the first time in their lives.
Except for teachers like Reis Daniel who have carefully read Jiang Yunu's information and know her specific home address in the student registration information, people like Zhou Jinxue and Xie Shi only know that Jiang Yunu's home is in Xiate City, but they don't know which area of Xiate it is specifically.
Of course, they never expected that it would be such an area.
The name "Ruoluo Street" reveals poverty and sounds like a "no man's land".
Young Master Xie stood at the entrance of the dilapidated street in a daze for a moment. He was wearing a very delicate little dress and carrying an exquisite gift box, which looked out of place with the overall style of the dilapidated street.
He said to Jiang Yunu, "To be honest, if you hadn't invited me here, I would have thought I was going to be kidnapped and trafficked."
Qiao Yisen and Jiang Yunu were waiting at the street corner to greet the guests. Upon hearing this, they immediately retorted, "You wish!"
As Qiao Yisen spoke, his eyes swept past Zhou Jinxue, trying to quickly find a target "more worthy of kidnapping." He knew that Senior Zhou and Jiang Yunu had a good relationship, but it was inappropriate for a boy like him to play such a joke on a girl, so he continued to look to the side and quickly locked onto a new target: "If we really want to kidnap and sell someone, then the first choice should be Teacher Lei!"
Reiss Daniel, who had just gotten off the hovercraft at the intersection, asked: "?"
It is summer now, and Mr. Lei's usual long windbreaker and long coat are inappropriate, but he still wears a neat shirt and trousers, which is in line with the weather while showing order and grace as much as possible.
The elegant male teacher asked in disbelief, "Who wants to kidnap and sell me?"
Jiang Yunu quickly replied, "Me."
The white-haired girl gave her teacher an "evil" smile and said, "Teacher, you have boarded a pirate ship and arrived in a very dangerous place. You may be kidnapped soon!"
Although Joyson had set his sights on Reiss Daniel, he was far from being "unbridled" in front of him. Reiss Daniel had taught Joyson for an extra semester, and the red-haired boy had attended more classes with this male teacher than Jiang Yunu, so he held him in even greater awe.
Jiang Yunu knew that Qiao Yisen didn't dare to respond after he "called out" someone, so she continued to make sinister remarks with a smile.
Reiss Daniel was also carrying a bag, probably a gift for the visit. He walked towards Jiang Yunu and Qiao Yisen and asked, "Excuse me, Jiang Luobo, where are you going to sell me to?"
Resdaniel good-naturedly followed his student's lead and joked, "For the sake of our teacher-student relationship, could you screen the buyer for me, or even let me see the buyer's information in advance?"
Jiang Yunu said, "That won't work. A young talent like Mr. Lei, who is so handsome, must be auctioned off, and the buyer cannot be selected in advance."
Reiss Daniel didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Then it seems that my worth is quite high. Should I thank you for the compliment?"
"You can," the white-haired girl said confidently. "When the highest bidder appears, you can pretend to be bought. Once the money arrives, I'll steal you back. The final profit will be 60% and 40%."
“…”
The handsome male teacher stopped and had to carefully observe his students again.
With the background of the dilapidated street with its truly "simple folk customs", Jiang Yunu stood at the street entrance with her hands on her hips. Her white hair seemed to be coated with a filter by the street scene behind her, which set off the smiling expression on her face. Combined with her overly skilled words, she looked very...potential to do bad things in the future.
"..." Reiss Daniel thought for a moment, then said cautiously and objectively, "Jiang Luobo, if you were standing here ten years later... no, five years later and talking to me like this, the teacher might suspect you've already done this."
Master Xie, who had been listening for a while, said coldly, "They're still professionals in setting up honey traps."
Jiang Yunu's smile didn't fade for a second. She turned her head and looked at Xie Shi: "Oh, so the young master knows about 'scam'?"
It seemed like Xie Shi was about to say, "It's just that my family is rich, I'm not stupid," but he swallowed it back out of some guest etiquette.
"So lively?" a cheerful voice called out from the other side of the street. Mudisa, carrying a substantial box, approached from the other side. "Are you all planning to block the street first, chatting about old times, and then head inside?"
Mutisha seemed to find the crowd stuck at the intersection quite amusing.
The usual process of entertaining guests continued - Qiao Yisen was responsible for leading the visitors who had arrived to the depths of the dilapidated street and to the Qiao family's small building, while Jiang Yunu continued to stay at the street entrance, waiting for other guests on the list.
The narrow entrance to the main, dilapidated street was a bit difficult to find, and only to permanent residents like them did it appear to be so distinctive.
Zhou Jinxue's family's special car brought her to the nearby area. The senior wanted to get off the car a little earlier and then walk to the address given by Jiang Yunu. However, her driver was not familiar with the area, so the hovercraft circled around and flew directly over the dilapidated street.
"Senior." Jiang Yunu noticed a car speeding by. She felt that the car type was very similar to what Zhou Jinxue had described to her, so she immediately called her senior, "Did you just pass over my head?"
Zhou Jinxue was sitting upright in the middle of the back seat. Upon hearing the sound, he moved to the window and looked down. Sure enough, he saw a conspicuous "little white hair" on the ground.
Jiang Yunu stood at the intersection of the dilapidated street and served as a living signpost, more effective than any signboard.
After finding the little white-haired boy, Zhou Jinxue's car got off the empty track, but couldn't find a suitable parking spot at the narrow intersection of the dilapidated street, so the low-key extended hover car stopped across the street.
"Luckily you're here to pick me up," Zhou Jinxue said after getting out of the car. "I saw the location is right here, but I haven't been able to find the exact street entrance."
"It means you are in need of a guide like me." Jiang Yunu said seriously.
Joyson was also leading Reiss Daniel and his three companions to the door of Building 78. Shesh took a look at the building and felt that it was not even as big as his living room. He did not make any unnecessary comments. Mutisha was very curious about the house opposite the building.
"Isn't there anyone living in the building opposite?" said Mutisha.
Qiao Yisen spoke quickly and said without hesitation: "That was Xiao Jiang's former territory."
Reiss Daniel pondered the word "territory" in his mind, and felt something was wrong. He said, "Jiang Luobo's territory? Then can you show us around here too?"
Joyson suddenly realized that he had said too much. "Well, we have to wait until the owner of the territory comes back. My words don't count."
Privately, Joyson felt that the other side was not a place that outsiders could easily set foot in. However, the specific judgment of "outsiders" had to be left to Jiang Yunu himself to make the final decision, and his words did not count.
Xie Shi also took a look at the building across the street. He felt that its appearance was not as good as his own warehouse. He was a little confused as to what Jiang Yunu used this place for? Was it a secret base for feral children?
But of course, Master Xie didn't say a word.
He was quite self-aware. He was here for the celebration, so he wanted to avoid making too many mistakes. A certain young white-haired man was heading to the Second District as soon as summer vacation was over. It wasn't certain when they would meet again, so Xie Shi wanted to leave a good impression.
The sharp-tongued one restrained himself, the thoughtful one did not continue to ask the little boy who lacked decision-making power, and the "Earth Mother" type teacher who first brought up this topic was also a sensitive and tolerant person. Seeing this situation, she did not ask any further questions.
Night falls and dusk gathers.
The Qiao family's small building, located deep in the dilapidated street, was rarely crowded with people, making the building reach its "most bustling" peak in history.
The doors and windows of the cabin had to be opened to let the summer night breeze blow in and promote air circulation in the house.
This was probably the simplest celebration many of those present had ever attended. The Qiao family's dining table seemed a bit too narrow for so many people, unable to accommodate so many guests dining simultaneously. Jiang Yunu took the initiative to demonstrate a unique "moving dining" style: people carried their bowls and walked around the table, with no fixed seating. Anyone who wanted to eat from the table could simply grab a portion.
It's like a buffet, but also like a family-style meal.
This way of eating can be said to be too unrefined.
Since the host family had taken the lead and was so casual about it, when Zhou Jinxue and Xie Shi also tried to pick up their bowls and eat around the table, Senior Zhou, who was known for her good etiquette, couldn't help but say, "This is really... convenient."
"I can't imagine eating like this anywhere else except here," said Master Xie.
Joyson appeared behind Xie Shi and asked, "Master, are you satisfied with your meal?"
There were still some drops of water on the red-haired boy's hands, and he smelled of the smoke from the kitchen.
Jiang Yunu also stuck her head out from the kitchen door, but her body was still inside the kitchen - she went to help cut some fresh vegetables to be put into the soup pot.
And before that, all the guests had seen how the brother and sister helped in the kitchen and how they skillfully prepared the food.
The fact that Jiang Yunu and Qiao Yisen could enter the kitchen surprised all the teachers. Teacher Lu Xixi, who arrived a little late, ran into the brother and sister cutting vegetables. She watched their knife skills for a long time in the kitchen and was amazed.
Xie Shi thought he was being very low-key, but in fact, he glanced at Jiang Yunu very conspicuously and said, "...I'm quite satisfied. I mean, very satisfied. It's very good to eat like this."
Jiang Yunu felt that she had heard an appropriate answer. She nodded with satisfaction and then retracted her head from the kitchen door.
Shesh's tense shoulders relaxed a little unconsciously.
The teachers exchanged glances tacitly, Lucy touched Resdaniel's shoulder, and Mutisha raised her eyebrows slightly.
Reisdaniel pretended not to see anything.
——Student Jiang Luobo needs to continue moving forward and reach a broader world.
Some young people’s thoughts are like dandelions that cannot catch up with the wind. They are blown into bloom by the wind, and when they can no longer move forward, they will disappear in the wind.
