Chapter 327: Chapter 327 Zhao Jianing’s Self-Rescue Chapter 327: Chapter 327 Zhao Jianing’s Self-Rescue Luo Qiao thought about this matter all the way ho and was distracted while cooking. Lu Yichen ca back and thought sothing had happened seeing her like this.
He asked, “What happened?”
Luo Qiao scooped the cooked dish into a plate and said, “I have a quota for a permanent position at a pharmaceutical factory. Do you think I should give it to the team leader’s eldest son, Gao Baozhu, or to Yao Family’s Yao Pengfei?”
Lu Yichen put down the thing in his hand and asked, “Who is Yao Pengfei?”
It was then that Luo Qiao rembered Lu Yichen didn’t know anyone from the Yao Family, “I forgot you don’t know Yao Pengfei. Their family helped a lot at the farm before.”
Lu Yichen washed his hands in the basin and while wiping them with a towel, he said, “Are they the relatives from Ji City that the villagers were talking about before?”
When Luo Qiao thought about the events that had transpired with the Yao Family, her smile faded, and she said indifferently, “You could say that.”
Lu Yichen noticed Luo Qiao’s mood, which had been fine just before, suddenly seed to drop and wondered why she had beco unhappy when he hadn’t said anything to cause it.
He tried asking, “Why are you unhappy?”
Luo Qiao smiled, “It’s nothing, I’m not unhappy, just rembered so things.”
Then Luo Qiao made up her mind. Gao Baozhu had not been working for long, and giving him the quota might cause trouble for Jiang Dongli. Better wait for another opportunity in the future.
Yao Pengfei not only had started working earlier than Gao Baozhu, but he also had a city household registration. Giving the permanent position quota to the Yao Family would also pay back the favor they owed them.
Having made up her mind, Luo Qiao said to Lu Yichen, “Go call Stone back for dinner, he’s playing with the Song Family’s kids at the street corner.”
It wasn’t long before Stone rushed back. Luo Qiao told him, “Go fetch so water to wash your hands and get ready for dinner.”
They had noodles with gravy for lunch. Stone swallowed a mouthful and said, “Sister, Auntie Song is so funny. She always tries to pry information out of , asking about our family. I’m not a little kid. I won’t fall for that.”
Luo Qiao looked at Stone’s smug face, “What did she ask you?”
Stone slurped a bite of noodles before saying, “What could it be? It’s the sa old questions repeated over and over; ‘What delicious food has your family eaten again?’, ‘Where does your family get so much at?’, ‘What is the relation between that police officer and your sister?'”
Lu Yichen looked up at Luo Qiao and turned to ask Stone, “What did you say?”
Stone stopped his movents, “Of course, I said I’m too young to know these things, and if she wants to know, she should co and ask my brother and sister.”
Laughing heartily to himself, he then said, “Auntie Song is really funny. She knows she can’t get anything out of , but every ti she sees , she still bothers to ask. I’m really fed up with her.”
Lu Yichen turned to Luo Qiao, about to say sothing but heard her say, “Stone, if anyone asks you again what the relationship is between and your brother, just tell them our two families have been friends for generations.”
Stone ‘oh’-ed and asked, “What does friends for generations an?”
Luo Qiao explained, “It ans my elders and his elders are friends.”
Lu Yichen thought to himself, since when did our families beco friends for generations, but well, whatever you say goes.
Stone nodded, “Got it, Auntie Song is so annoying.”
Auntie Song at the entrance of the alley had a niece who had fancied a teacher and dated him for a while before he broke up. She was devastated, to the point of seeking death, prompting the family to look for a suitable young man to introduce her to.
Auntie Song had encountered Lu Yichen a few tis and thought that this young man was not bad. His leg issue was not noticeable unless he was walking, and it didn’t affect normal life.
Lu Yichen had a respectable job at the police station, and she wanted to introduce him to her niece, so she tried to fish for information from Stone. However, Stone was too cunning to give away any useful information.
Of course, Luo Qiao and Lu Yichen knew nothing about this.
After they finished eating, Lu Yichen was cleaning up when he said, “Oh right, I ran into an acquaintance today. He said that Zhao Jianing sohow went to the military base and ntioned she was betrothed to soone there.”
