Chapter 181: Stay Away From Him
Jiang Yu walked out of the classroom.
When Ke Yanbin spotted her, he quickly coughed.
Feng Linbai immediately sensed something. He stood up and said, “I’m going out for a while.”
Jiang Zeyu was also very sensitive.
Old Bull wanted to go out. There must be a conspiracy going on.
Could he be going to look for his Little Sister?
He stood up. “I want to go out too.”
Jiang Chenglang stood up and said, “It’s not convenient for you. I’ll send him out.”
An Yimin: … Then, is this parent-teacher conference still going to be held?
Meanwhile, Jiang Yu stood at the back door. When she saw the few people in the last row, she was stunned.
Why were all of them here?
Back then, Jiang Zeyu said that he would be attending the parent-teacher conference on her behalf. She had thought that it was just a joke and did not think too much about it. She had not expected him to really come.
Also, Jiang Chenglang. What was he doing here?
Jiang Yu’s gaze fell on the middle-aged man among the group. She was stunned.
Had she seen this face somewhere before?
Why did it look a little familiar?
When the man looked at her, his eyes were filled with surprise. However, that inexplicable thought appeared in Jiang Yu’s mind again.
Don’t.
Don’t get close.
Stay away from him.
She frowned. She really didn’t know why she suddenly had this thought. It was so sudden and strange. It was like a vine that grew from the depths of her heart. As soon as this strange middle-aged man appeared, it suddenly rushed out.
She held her breath, trying to find out the cause of her thought, but to no avail.
Meanwhile, the man had already walked over happily. “Yu Yu, you did very well this time. You did very well indeed! I’m relieved to see that you’re doing well. If your mother knew, she would be very happy too.”
An Yimin didn’t have the time to change his words. He was so used to saying things like this and had blurted it out without much thought.
It wasn’t until he heard footsteps behind him that he knew that Jiang Chenglang had walked over to his side.
He couldn’t help but want to slap himself again.
Aiyo, what do you mean by “mother”? I should say “aunt” now.
Since Jiang Yu appeared, the four of them naturally couldn’t sit still. An Yimin wanted to care about Zhao Jiande who was still on stage, but he was too excited to see Jiang Yu. He couldn’t control himself and walked straight to the back door.
Since An Yimin had already walked over, the other three naturally wouldn’t sit idle either.
The four of them had been sitting in the last row, close to the back door. No one would notice if they all walked out.
However, Zhao Jiande, who was standing at the podium, could see everything going on in the classroom, so he also noticed Jiang Yu’s arrival. He couldn’t help but gape and stare outside the classroom in a daze.
Zhao Jiande suddenly stopped speaking. The other parents followed his line of sight and looked out in surprise. They saw the girl that had appeared on the screen not more than ten minutes ago now appeared in front of them.
This was the little girl who was ranked first in the grade. She was really good-looking. She was even more beautiful up close!
Wait a minute…
Why were all four of them leaving?
Did they all know each other, or… were they all her guardians?
If they were all her guardians, that would be a little… over the top…
Forget it, forget it. She was ranked first in the grade, so what if she was a little over top? After all, she was a genius child, so it was understandable.
Jiang Yu, who was surrounded by a few people, pursed her lips.
She knew who this was.
This was her adoptive father.
She didn’t have the memories of the original owner of this body, so she didn’t know what it was like to live with An Yimin’s family.
That was why, after she passed through, she had just followed the plot of the book and didn’t think of contacting her adoptive parents.
Chapter 182: She Had No Parents
In her original world, Jiang Yu had no parents. She had been discovered by the organization and was raised by them.
Later on, when she grew up and had the power, she took over the organization and established her own family. However, she took on an idle role and didn’t really interfere in the affairs of the organization.
However, because she was the one who had led this group of people out of their misery, those people were completely loyal to her and would never betray her. Jiang Yu was also happy to be free and unfettered, acting as the boss.
Therefore, she really did not have much affection for her parents.
In addition, An Yimin and Xun Shaorong were worried that she would not be able to adapt to the Jiang family’s environment if they contacted her. They were also afraid that she would run back just because they missed her. Wouldn’t that be harming her?
They did not want to be a burden to her, so they would always key in a few numbers and then delete them. They even forced themselves to not come to the school.
This feeling was indeed very complicated. They wanted to see her but were afraid of seeing her.
Seeing that Jiang Yu was doing well, An Yimin heaved a sigh of relief.
Jiang Yu buried her curiosity and politely said, “Thank you.”
She then asked, “Is the parent-teacher conference over?”
Jiang Chenglang said, “It should be over soon.”
He turned to look at Zhao Jiande, who was at the head of the classroom. When Zhao Jiande met his gaze, he couldn’t help but quiver.
He felt that today had been a difficult day.
If he hadn’t sent the wrong message, he wouldn’t be in such a miserable state right now.
The parents below the stage weren’t listening to him anymore. They were all paying attention to Jiang Yu, who was ranked first in the grade. Why did they all look like they wanted to win her over?
Pay attention, those people standing around her don’t look easy to deal with!
However, it was one thing to feel that those people weren’t easy to deal with, but it was another thing to really want to exchange experiences with Jiang Yu.
Zhao Jiande gave a bitter sigh, admitting his fate. He told the parents below the stage to wait for a moment, then walked out of the classroom. He decided to tell Jiang Chenglang and the others that there was no need to stay for the parent-teacher conference, they could leave now.
He could see that with Jiang Yu around, no one would pay attention to him!
It was better to send them off. He should let them leave quickly and let them play mahjong… No, let them exchange their feelings somewhere else.
Of course, Jiang Chenglang would not reject Zhao Jiande’s suggestion.
He came today because he wanted to learn more about Jiang Yu from Zhao Jiande but now it seemed that he had to first guard against Feng Linbai. Secondly, since An Yimin has appeared, why did he need the teacher?
He definitely knew more about Jiang Yu.
If Zhao Jiande knew what Jiang Chenglang was thinking, he would definitely lament that it was too difficult.
As the group of people prepared to leave, Jiang Chenglang asked, “Xiao Yu, why don’t you bring Uncle An back to the Jiang family and we can have a meal there?”
Jiang Zeyu’s face was filled with rejection. “Why do we have to go back to the Jiang Family? Isn’t Jiang Wan there?”
Jiang Zeyu didn’t know that Jiang Wan had already moved out.
Jiang Yu looked at An Yimin before looking at Feng Linbai.
It didn’t seem suitable to go back to the Jiang family. An Yimin would probably be overwhelmed.
Jiang Yu rejected, “There’s no need. Let’s go somewhere else.”
…
At the Cixi Restaurant.
When Ji Churan heard that Jiang Yu had come, she wanted to throw away the spatula in her hand and run out to greet her.
The tall, long-legged man leaned against the wall and threatened casually, “If you don’t practice hard and fail the entrance exam… you’ll be chased out.”
Chapter 183: Already Beneath Your Feet
She felt as if a basin of cold water had been poured down her neck.
Ji Churan forced herself to calm down.
She could endure it, she could endure it.
Anyway, there were plenty of other opportunities to see Xiao Yu’er.
However, she was curious about who Xiao Yu’er was here with?
Ji Churan pursed her lips and obediently returned to her job.
To be honest, when Xiao Yu’er first told her that she wanted to introduce her to a job, she did not think much about it.
She thought that it was just a normal job, she would be asked to run some errands. Who would have thought that Xiao Yu’er would actually recommend her to Cixi Restaurant!
This was the most famous restaurant in Beijing and the place that she had always dreamed of working at!
Alas!
Happiness came too suddenly and it caught her off guard!
At that time, she had asked Jiang Yu this question, “Xiao Yu’er, can I really work at Cixi Restaurant?”
Jiang Yu replied, “You’ll have to report on the weekends, there will be a test, and also a period of training. Only after you’ve passed will you be able to stay permanently.”
Although Jiang Yu was the boss behind the scenes, she was also a strict boss who does not use under-table methods.
She was used to putting the right person in the right position. Ji Churan’s culinary skills were not bad, so of course, she had to work in the culinary industry. So, working at the Cixi Restaurant was the best choice.
However, if she did not pass the test, it would not be of much help even if she forced herself to stay. She would also feel bad and it would be meaningless.
Ji Churan said nervously, “Then will I embarrass you?”
She thought that Jiang Yu must have recommended her through the Jiang family’s connections. It must have been quite troublesome. If she recommended a rookie like her, would others criticize her behind her back?
Jiang Yu: “I believe in you.”
Just as Ji Churan was about to hug Jiang Yu and shout, “Xiao Yu’er, you’re the best!”, she heard Jiang Yu continue, “Because if you fail, it won’t be me who will lose face. It’ll be you.”
Ji Churan: “…”
Jiang Yu patted her shoulder. “Work hard and don’t think too much. The road is already beneath your feet.”
“Okay!”
Ji Churan nodded and clenched her fists. “I’ll work hard! I’ll definitely pass the exam!”
The memories ended.
Ji Churan’s fighting spirit was ignited.
She had to stay in Cixi Restaurant and show that stingy supervisor. She would one day become the head chef of Cixi Restaurant and get him to bow at her feet!
…
In the VIP private room.
Inside the room was a round table. It was another secret competition on the seating arrangement.
The few of them stood around. Jiang Chenglang scanned the room and said, “Uncle An, you sit beside Xiao Yu.”
Jiang Zeyu nodded. He had no objections to Jiang Yu and An Yimin sitting together.
But the other seat next to his little sister…
Just as Jiang Zeyu was about to speak, Feng Linbai said, “Uncle An, let me sit next to you.”
Jiang Zeyu: Old Bull is being so nice? He actually didn’t want to fight?
The two brothers of the Jiang family were both here. Feng Linbai wasn’t that stupid. If he rushed to sit next to Jiang Yu, that would give him away.
He might as well sit next to An Yimin and try to get close to him instead.
Jiang Chenglang: “I’m the eldest brother. I’m sitting next to Xiao Yu.”
Jiang Zeyu was about to refute when he heard Jiang Chenglang continue, “Uncle An, what do you think?”
An Yimin nodded his head in confusion. “I think… that’s not a problem, right?”
He looked at Jiang Yu, mainly to get her opinion but Jiang Yu did not feel anything about it.
Jiang Yu said indifferently, “It’s fine.”
Jiang Chenglang quickly concluded. “Then it’s settled.”
Jiang Zeyu: Sly fox!
