Chapter 754: Chapter 754: Trouble at the Cafeteria Chapter 754: Chapter 754: Trouble at the Cafeteria Lu Yichen pulled soone along, “Co on, let take you to eat first; you haven’t tried the food in our canteen yet.”
After returning the remaining three apples to the office, Lu Yichen took a lunch box and led Luo Qiao to the canteen. It was quite a large canteen. As soon as Lu Yichen and Luo Qiao walked in, everyone’s gaze landed on them simultaneously.
Many people in the bureau had never seen Luo Qiao, so soone asked in a low voice, “Who is the girl with Deputy Director Lu?”
An inford person across the way said with a gossipy tone, “That’s Deputy Director Lu’s fiancée, pretty, isn’t she? She’s a university student, studying dicine, impressive, right?”
“Indeed, she’s beautiful. She and Deputy Director Lu are a match made in heaven, talented man and lovely woman.”
“Then Deputy Director Lu will have to wait, I’ve heard that dical students have longer school periods than other university students.”
“Deputy Director Lu might have to wait until all his hair turns gray.”
“Enough, eat your food. If Deputy Director Lu isn’t in a hurry, there’s no need for you to worry about it.”
Quite a few female comrades in the bureau took a liking to Lu Yichen, but aside from official business, he always maintained a cold deanor toward everyone. Now, seeing a tender-hearted Deputy Director Lu, those won who admired him were considerably shocked.
After most of them saw Luo Qiao, they gave up; they simply couldn’t compare with her in any aspect, whether it was figure, appearance, or educational background.
So families living in the staff residential complex also ate here, and just by chance, Qiao Anming and his wife, Jia Guihua, were eating here today. They were busy preparing wedding items for Qiao Dajun these days, and because they were short on ti, they hadn’t been cooking at ho and had been eating in the canteen.
Seeing Lu Yichen bringing Luo Qiao in, Jia Guihua felt sowhat uncomfortable. If it weren’t for Lu Yichen, her son wouldn’t have ended up with such a woman.
Watching Lu Yichen ask Luo Qiao to find a place to sit, not daring to vent her anger on Lu Yichen, Jia Guihua, in a mont of hotheadedness, decided to bully Luo Qiao to relieve her frustrations, and she stood up with her lunch box, walking over.
Luo Qiao had just sat down when she felt a gaze fixed on her. Using her peripheral vision, she saw an angry-looking woman approaching from a distance, which made her extra cautious.
As the woman ca over intending to trip and spill her soup on Luo Qiao, Luo Qiao preemptively left her seat. Without Luo Qiao to block it, the soup ended up spilling onto a girl sitting at the next table instead.
Apart from the drenched girl, others sitting nearby were also more or less affected, leading to an imdiate chorus of screams, with Luo Qiao standing at a distance watching everything.
Then, the girl who got splashed the most seriously ca to her senses and went straight over to slap Jia Guihua several tis. This canteen didn’t only cater to employees of the Public Security Bureau but also to staff from the neighboring city governnt.
The clothes on the woman were visibly expensive. Soone able to afford such attire obviously ca from a well-to-do family. As the commotion started, Qiao Anming saw his wife being hit and hurried over as well.
But the others around weren’t having it and clamored for compensation for the clothes.
Soone in the crowd instigated further by saying, “She obviously did it on purpose.”
Lu Yichen heard the noise and thought Luo Qiao was having a conflict with soone. He ran over without even caring to carry his lunch box, and seeing Luo Qiao appearing unhard and watching the commotion, he relaxed.
He walked over and pulled her up, checking her over and finding no issues, “What happened?”
Luo Qiao pointed at the woman who was slapped, “Who is she?”
Only then did Lu Yichen notice the person on the ground, “That’s Qiao Dajun’s mother, Jia Guihua.”
Looking puzzled, Luo Qiao raised her head, “Who is Qiao Dajun?”
Lu Yichen then rembered Luo Qiao didn’t know Qiao Dajun. He was about to explain, but Luo Qiao recalled, “Oh, I rember now. Is he the one who had an affair with Chief Xie’s niece that day?”
Lu Yichen nodded.
Luo Qiao said, “That’s right, she probably ca for . These people here are just innocent bystanders caught in the crossfire.”
Lu Yichen frowned, “What’s going on?”
Luo Qiao looked at the disheveled Jia Guihua, “After I sat down, I could feel soone staring at , so when I sensed soone approaching, I stood up and moved away. The result was what you just saw.”
