Chapter 126 The Family Reunion
After Ruan Xingyue ordered the dishes, she glanced at her sister who was playing with her phone.
Catching her stealing glances at him, he couldn't help but tease her: "In broad daylight, on the curb, someone kissed you until you cried and you held onto your neck, surrounded by a bunch of middle school and high school students, who filmed it on their phone. Now you're embarrassed?"
Ruan Xingmian reached out and poked her sister's side, "Sister, please."
Stop talking.
She never dared to come to the gate of No. 1 Middle School to eat again.
Ruan Xingyue grabbed her hand that was poking her when she was shy, "Don't move, I'm ticklish."
Li Xue pushed the door open and came in.
Gu Xing stood up first: "Auntie."
Li Xue was on the phone, nodded, and raised her hand to signal him to sit down.
Out of the corner of my eye, I saw my two daughters playing like little kids, you poking me and I poking you. A smile appeared on my face, with a hint of helplessness and unconcealable tenderness in the smile.
"Okay, Mom, I'll tell Mianmian. Teacher Qu is kind and will understand."
She walked in, and Lu Fuchuan, who followed her, first looked at where Ruan Xingyue was sitting and closed the door casually.
While Li Xue was talking, he moved step by step and stood next to Ruan Xingyue.
Only after Li Xue sat down did he dare to sit down.
Li Xue took off her coat and hung it on a chair: "Mianmian, grandpa and grandma can't come this Sunday."
Li Xue was both helpless and amused when she mentioned this: "How much did you two sisters give to grandpa and grandma in red envelopes last time?"
Ruan Xingmian looked at her sister first, she didn’t expect that her sister was also stuffed.
"Three thousand per person." Ruan Xingyue looked at Li Xue, "What's wrong? They were scammed."
There have been too many cases of elderly fraud recently, and Ruan Xingyue thought of this first.
She looked at her sister, "How much did you stuff in?"
Ruan Xingmian: "Not as much as you, two thousand each."
The waiter began to serve the dishes. Li Xue accepted the tea poured by Gu Xing and nodded in thanks. Then she looked at her two daughters and said, "It's a total of 10,000 yuan. They probably saved half of it and bought a water buffalo with the other half. They've been busy herding cattle and feeding pigs lately and can't leave."
Xu Yanzi's mother was happy to help. Who could bear to make her so tired?
When talking about Xu Yanzi's mother, Li Xue couldn't help but look at her little daughter proudly.
I thought she was just joking about starting a business at such a young age, but I didn't expect that the factory was about to be built.
Yan Zi now has a stable income and commissions, and is planning to save money for her mother's surgery.
Xu Yanzi's mother was filled with gratitude and would call her every now and then to talk about the two elderly people's lives at home. She asked for their address in the city and sent her radish and pepper powder, both of which were grown at home.
What’s even more exaggerated is that her daughter’s company contracted all the unwanted bamboo in Lenan Bamboo Village, and posted recruitment advertisements on bulletin boards in major villages.
Xu Yanzi's mother took a photo and sent it over. There were six big words "Xingmian Culture Company" on it, which made Li Xue burst into tears.
She began to hesitate about the idea of bringing her child home.
The long commute must have tired her little daughter out.
When all the dishes were served, Li Xue was in a very good mood. "Everyone, pick up your chopsticks. After you've eaten your fill, it's time to go to work or class in the afternoon."
She has always been worried about her two children's future jobs.
Hey, I was thinking about this at the dinner table today: a startup boss, his business is booming. A secretary in the CEO's office of a large company, has a bright future.
She doesn't need to worry about it at all.
Li Xue suddenly had the urge to ask Gu Xing about his studies. Her gaze shifted to Lu Fuchuan, and seeing his well-behaved face, she couldn't help but chuckle, "Our Fuchuan has made progress too. At least he's not writing novels in class anymore."
Ruan Xingmian dropped a chopstick in shock. "High school courses are so intense? You actually still have time to write a novel?"
As a veteran novel lover, Ruan Xingmian poked his head in and asked, "What's the subject matter? Which platform is it published on? Give me the title so I can take a look."
Lu Fuchuan insisted on covering his vest: "Sorry, it's the industry rule that we don't reveal the book title or the vest."
Ruan Xingmian took the new chopsticks from Gu Xing, leaned forward and said, "I'll give you a reward."
Seeing this, Ruan Xingyue leaned back and raised her eyebrows: "How about I change your seats?"
Lu Fuchuan leaned over and said, "You are not allowed to change."
He is now very afraid of seeing Ruan Xingmian.
Ruan Xingyue glanced at his ears and saw that they were red, which was rare.
After eating, Li Xue hurried back to school.
There were four people left. Gu Xing got up to pay the bill. Ruan Xingyue looked at her sister first: "Are you sleepy? Do you want to go back and take a nap?"
Ruan Xingmian was excited: "This is the first time I've met a real-life author. I'm not sleepy at all."
Her work in the afternoon was just to accompany the interview, sit next to Zhao Qian as a mascot, and give opinions after the interview.
There is no technical content.
Ruan Xingyue asked Lu Fuchuan again: "What about you?"
Lu Fuchuan looked conflicted.
He wanted to stay with Ruan Xingyue.
But it seems that Ruan Xingmian will be there too.
Annoying.
"I'm not sleepy. I haven't taken a nap." He always slept secretly during evening self-study classes.
"Okay then, let's go visit Ukikawa's school and check out his dorm."
Lu Fuchuan's pupils were shocked: What's so good about a shabby dormitory?
The two sisters stood up in unison, with Lu Fuchuan lagging behind. Thinking of his dormitory, which didn't even have hot water, he asked, "Secretary Ruan, can I use the Lu Charity Foundation's project and pay for it personally to install hot water and air conditioning in our dormitory?"
Ruan Xingyue nodded and thought about this problem seriously. The conditions in the affiliated high school were very good and there were no such problems.
No. 1 Middle School is an old school, and every aspect of it is outdated, so any small change can affect the entire structure.
After leaving the restaurant, Ruan Xingyue replied, "Don't worry. The foundation has just set up a team to recover the misappropriated funds. Let's see how much we can recover."
She looked at Gu Xing: "How much budget do you need?"
Turing had already given the answer, and Gu Xing directly read out the data: "To be conservative, 2 million to 5 million."
Ruan Xingyue nodded confidently: "This amount of money can be recovered."
Chi Lin looked stupid, but she did not completely trust Liang Xin. She kept a small fund in private. Both her and Liang Chi's accounts were frozen, and they were just waiting for the case to be over so that they could recover the money.
The old garden of No. 1 Middle School is large and beautiful. The flowers, plants and trees are all old and well maintained.
There were not many people around during lunch break, so they found a pavilion to sit down.
Gu Xing and Ruan Xingyue had something to talk about.
Ruan Xingmian drank water and pestered Lu Fuchuan for a pen name.
"What did the monitor record?"
Gu Xing replied: "Chi Lu forced Liang Chi to give him money to fill the hole, otherwise he would tell Liang Xin that Lu Tian's drug addiction was Liang Chi's fault."
Ruan Xingyue had anticipated this: "Liang Xin probably guessed it, but he wasn't sure if it was Liang Chi or Chi Lu who did it."
Gu Xing nodded. "Liang Chi has a stronger motive. He's jealous that Lu Tian is Liang Xin's legitimate son. Liang Xin's resources have always favored Lu Tian, and he's a medical student."
Ruan Xingyue thought of the disinfectant on the rooftop and murmured, "Yes, he was a medical student. It was his first time killing someone, so the first thing he thought about was how to destroy the body. So, he cleaned the rooftop thoroughly."
Lu Fuchuan stopped chatting with Ruan Xingmian and said seriously, "Without the surveillance footage from back then, how can we be sure it was him?"
I knew it was him, but I couldn't produce any evidence, which made me feel very frustrated.
Ruan Xingyue said quietly, "That building is the evidence."
She looked at Lu Fuchuan and said, "Buy that building as soon as possible. I want to revisit the scene of the Liang Chi crime."
