At the start, I tricked the school beauty, and ended up with twins? Chapter 234 - 234 - 232: The Origin of Mr. Ramen

Chapter 234 – 232: The Origin of Mr. Ran

He asked the question that had been bothering him since the beginning.

Lin Xinyue imdiately agreed, nodding eagerly, “Yeah! Mr. Ran, Mrs. Ran, those nas sound so strange!”

Upon hearing the couple’s questions, Mrs. Bai was initially startled and then quickly turned to look at her husband.

She reached out and tugged at her husband, who was kneading dough.

“Huh? What’s up?”

Mr. Liu, who was daydreaming, turned around with his hands covered in flour that hadn’t yet been kneaded.

“Yu and Yue are asking why you’re called Mr. Ran!”

Mrs. Bai rolled her eyes at him; the man would forget himself whenever he got busy and beco oblivious to anything happening around him.

Upon hearing this, Mr. Liu quickly nodded, “Oh oh oh! Well, there’s not much to say; it’s just a nickna others have given !”

He had intended to brush off their question with a simple answer.

But how could Lin Xinyue let him off the hook so easily?

She grabbed Mr. Liu’s arm to prevent him from continuing to knead the dough and then looked at him with big, pleading eyes, cooing, “Mr. Liu, Mr. Liu! Please tell us!”

Seeing that Mr. Liu had little reaction, she turned and threw her arms around Mrs. Bai, starting to act coquettishly.

The elderly couple could not withstand her charm; she had been spoiled since she was young, always given candy the mont she cried.

Mrs. Bai sighed helplessly, “Your Uncle Liu is too shy to tell, so I’ll explain!”

Mr. Liu’s face flushed red, and he turned away, pretending to knead the dough.

Gu Yu brought over a stool for Mrs. Bai to sit on.

The three of them sat in a circle, much like a seminar was about to begin.

“Tell us, tell us!” Lin Xinyue also brought over a plate of peanuts and lon seeds to the kitchen counter, instantly becoming an eager listener.

Gu Yu was equally curious.

He wondered what incident had led to Mr. Liu being called Mr. Ran, to the point that Mr. Liu was embarrassed to talk about it.

“Well! It’s really not a big deal. A few days ago, didn’t your Uncle Liu and I go to Lujiazui for fun?”

“When we were taking the ferry across the river, a child leaning on the railings accidentally slipped through and fell into the river.”

“Your Uncle Liu knows how to swim, and he didn’t think twice before jumping into the river to save the child.”

“Then, the incident was reported by the Modu Evening News, and lots of people ca to see us. Knowing we own a noodle shop, they started calling us Mr. Ran and Mrs. Ran.”

“Today, you also saw those with smartphones and dyed hair, and those weird people dressed like Tang Seng singing and dancing. They all ca to see us.”

Mrs. Bai explained the whole story in one breath.

Gu Yu finally understood what had happened.

It turned out that Mr. Liu had heroically saved soone and the dia had covered it, leading many kind-hearted online users to visit the noodle shop to support Mr. Liu.

That’s why he got this nickna, Mr. Ran.

And those live strears, they were purely there to cash in on Mr. Liu’s popularity.

After all, the internet is now aggressively promoting such positive deeds, and these strears, who tout positivity, couldn’t possibly overlook the chance to ride on this popularity.

Although these people seed to be riding on the coattails of the hype, it couldn’t be denied that they also brought a lot of business to Mr. Liu.

This was evident when looking at Mr. Liu not stopping for a second to knead the next batch of dough after finishing one.

“Uncle Liu is truly amazing! He steps up when needed!”

Gu Yu looked at Mr. Liu with great admiration.

Lin Xinyue was also in awe, with her mouth agape, “Wow! Really, I never thought the hero who saved soone would be right beside , and he’s my dear uncle!”

Her face was full of admiration.

Both of their reactions actually made Mr. Liu feel uncomfortable, as he felt his cheeks growing increasingly hot.

He was an honest man, unaccustod to praise.

“Why wouldn’t you boast about doing such a good deed! If I were that child’s parent, I’d definitely have a huge banner of gratitude made to hang in Uncle Liu’s shop!”

Gu Yu could see right away that Mr. Liu was a profoundly honest and decent man.

Honest people are like that; they believe doing good is their duty, and when their deeds are exposed, they feel embarrassed.

However, in Gu Yu’s view, such an incident should be openly talked about!

It wasn’t sothing to be ashad of!

If it had been him, he would have at least placed ten baskets of flowers outside the noodle shop and offered free als for three days!

This kind of thing is completely sothing to be proud of, and there’s no sha in talking about it!

“A banner of honor!? Yes, we have one!”

Mrs. Bai grinned widely, stretching out her hand to point at a compartnt below the cupboard.

Gu Yu looked down and indeed, there was a rolled-up banner of honor there.

He reached out and pulled out the banner.

Then he asked Lin Xinyue to hold one end of the banner while he stood up and stepped back to unfurl it.

The triangular red banner had a few glittering gold characters sewn onto it—Hero Noodle House!

The characters were flamboyant, and even when Gu Yu touched them with his hand, they seed to be stitched with golden thread.

It looked like that child’s parents were truly sincere.

He often saw on Dou Ying how, after a child was rescued, the parents would leave without a word of thanks.

That’s what really chills the hearts of rescuers, and even those who originally intended to help.

If everyone acted like that, ignoring heroes and not giving them the honor they deserve, then who would step forward for these things in the future?

“Hero Noodle House! That’s great! I really think this na is good!”

Looking at the inscription on the banner, Gu Yu suddenly had an idea.

Rescuing soone is definitely not sothing to be ashad of.

If it’s not shaful, then it must be sothing to be proud of.

So what if I show off a little?

“Aha! That’s too much praise, at that ti I was the only one who could swim so I jumped in. If there was soone else who could swim, they would surely have helped too!”

Mr. Liu waved his hand, although his face was full of smiles, he still felt the need to be modest.

However, Lin Xinyue didn’t think so, her thoughts coinciding with Gu Yu’s.

“Mr. Liu, Mrs. Bai, why don’t Yu and I make a new signboard for the noodle shop? The plastic signboard you’re using has already broken.”

Getting a cue from Gu Yu’s gaze, Xinyue took the initiative to suggest.

“Ah? A new signboard?”

Mrs. Bai was sowhat puzzled, not understanding why the need for a new signboard suddenly arose.

“Of course to make a Hero Noodle House signboard!”

Lin Xinyue said with a smile, sporting an expression that said it was only natural, and she looked at Gu Yu, who gave her a thumbs-up.

That’s what you call being in sync!

The two of them had the sa idea!

“Ah? That just won’t do, it’s too showy!”

“I think the current signboard is pretty good!”

Both Mrs. Bai and Mr. Liu hurriedly waved their hands when they heard it, as both of them didn’t like being high-profile.

“Isn’t it generous and dignified to hang up a signboard for Hero Noodle House? And everyone would probably be more willing to co eat here too!”

Gu Yu, as a young person, had different thoughts than the elders.

But no matter how much he reasoned, the elders just wouldn’t agree.

Feeling helpless, he sighed, signaling Xinyue to take a turn.

But even when Lin Xinyue tried everything from acting coquettish to using charm, nothing worked.

The two looked at each other helplessly and spread their hands. Since that was the case, there was nothing they could do.

“You must be hungry, right? Co on, let’s go out to eat!”

Mr. Liu didn’t want to continue on this topic, so he changed the subject.

Lin Xinyue nodded unhappily, “I’m hungry, but I don’t feel like eating!”

Mrs. Bai patted her head, “Ah, you child, just stop worrying about us old folks. Just take good care of yourself and Gu Yu.”

“Alright~” Lin Xinyue could only agree.

Just then, soone suddenly pushed the door and walked in.

Gu Yu turned his head to look and to his surprise, it was Liu Ermao.

Liu Ermao looked surprised:

“Eh! Yu, you’re here too! Perfect, I need to ask for your help with sothing.”
