Chapter 1008 Uncle Shen guards the university gate
"Brother Yanchi, you're amazing!"
"It's not easy to book a table at Youranju, and it's even more difficult to make a last-minute reservation."
Zhang Ruoruo hugged Lin Yanchi's arm and praised him.
But in her heart she thought, Lin Yanchi was right.
If his family didn't own a clothing factory, he definitely wouldn't have such great abilities.
Only those with money can find ways to smooth things over.
Actually, a table became available because a customer called to cancel their reservation today and couldn't come.
Lin Yanchi called at just the right time, so that table was given to him.
Seeing Zhang Ruoruo's admiring gaze, Lin Yanchi didn't reveal the truth.
"It's nothing, I was just lucky."
Lin Yanchi and Zhang Ruoruo entered Youranju.
Shen Lu was in the courtyard.
She had already persuaded Lu Xingye to return to the capital.
She's been free these past couple of days and hasn't gone out much.
However, since Zhang Ziming and Xue Tian were coming today, Shen Lu arranged for a driver to pick them up and didn't plan to go herself.
Because she might get into another car accident, and it wouldn't be good if it affected both of them.
Back in Yucheng, after experiencing a car accident, Shen Lu originally wanted to tell the two not to come.
She didn't specify, only saying that she'd been having some bad luck lately, with one car accident after another, and she was worried about implicating the two of them.
Both women said they didn't mind, as they didn't believe in bad luck at all.
Not only that, Zhang Zimo also said that she went to Yonghe Temple to ask for a peace charm for Shen Lu.
Shen Lu asked in surprise, "Do you believe in Buddhism?"
How come she never noticed that Zhang Zimo was a Buddhist?
"I don't believe you, but I can believe you for your sake. You're my best friend!"
Zhang Zimo had good friends before, but none of them were like Shen Lu, who not only protected her but also helped her grow.
"Thank you, Miss."
Shen Lu never expected that Zhang Zimo would go to the Yonghe Temple to ask for a peace charm for her.
Although it's uncertain whether this amulet will work, Zhang Ziming must accept her kind gesture.
There was also Xue Tian, who said she brought her some local specialties.
Xue Tian is originally from southern Yunnan, so she has no shortage of places to pick mushrooms.
The reason I came to Yucheng is because I heard that Zhang Zimo was coming to visit, so I wanted to come too!
Shen Lu waited for the two at Youranju and ate a special meal in the kitchen.
When Brother Da Wu cooks, if there's a dish that Shen Lu hasn't tried before, he'll save some for her to try.
Pang Lüzhi would always save an extra portion of the main dishes for Shen Lu.
Shen Lu suspected that if she stayed any longer, she would grow into a fat pig for the New Year.
Seeing that it was almost time, she came out of the kitchen to greet her two friends.
Before I even saw anyone, I saw Zhang Ruoruo.
Zhang Ruoruo also happened to see Shen Lu.
She came here to try her luck, but she didn't expect to actually meet Shen Lu on her first try.
"Deer."
Zhang Ruoruo practically ran towards her.
Shen Lu instinctively dodged, afraid that she would bump into her.
"Zhang Ruoruo, are you here for dinner?"
Zhang Ruoruo almost lost her balance and fell.
But when faced with Shen Lu's question, she suppressed her anger.
“Yes, my boyfriend and I came to eat.” Zhang Ruoruo gripped Lin Yanchi’s arm tightly.
Lin Yanchi glanced at Shen Lu and smiled, "Hello, I'm Ruoruo's boyfriend, my name is Lin Yanchi."
"Oh." Shen Lu responded indifferently, without even bothering to introduce herself.
What is the relationship between Zhang Ruoruo's boyfriend and her?
She and Zhang Ruoruo will probably not have any further contact in the future.
Shen Lu's attitude made Zhang Ruoruo grit her teeth again.
"This is Shen Lu, we grew up together." Zhang Ruoruo could only try to save face.
"Don't let Lulu's aloofness fool you, that's just her personality."
"Brother Yanchi, don't take it to heart."
Lin Yanchi said with an understanding look, "It's okay."
Shen Lu was prettier than Zhang Ruoruo, but Lin Yanchi didn't even glance at her.
Zhang Ruoruo was then convinced that Lin Yanchi had indeed fallen in love with her at first sight.
Otherwise, how could he remain unmoved when he sees a more beautiful woman?
Zhang Ruoruo felt more confident.
"Brother Yanchi made a reservation today, Lulu, would you like to join us for some food?"
"Let's go, let's have dinner together. I still want to apologize to you."
"What happened last time was because I spoke without thinking, which upset you."
“I don’t work at SUNNY anymore, so you should be less angry now, right?”
Zhang Ruoruo still remembers that she lost her job because of Shen Lu.
Shen Lu glanced at her: "No need to apologize, I don't mind." Zhang Ruoruo was practically rolling her eyes to the heavens.
If you didn't care, why did you get me fired?
Shen Lu probably doesn't know that she already knows that she is the behind-the-scenes boss of SUNNY.
Since Shen Lu is so wealthy and the Shen family has gone bankrupt, she should logically help her out.
With this in mind, Zhang Ruoruo had an idea.
"I know you're a good person, Lulu. Have you gone to see Uncle Shen and Brother Shen?"
Shen Lu had no idea why Zhang Ruoruo suddenly brought up the two of them.
"Well, I'm quite busy, and they must be busy too." Shen Lu had long since repaid the Shen family's kindness.
She went back to see Shen Du and Shen Mingguang, and perhaps she would give them unrealistic fantasies.
It's better not to watch it than to let people overthink it.
Besides, Shen Mingguang didn't really love his daughter that much back then.
Otherwise, she wouldn't have failed to notice that Lin Rou had tormented her.
As for Shen Du, ever since he confessed his feelings for her, Shen Lu has been unable to treat him like a normal older brother.
The previous discord between the two might have been deliberately fabricated by Shen Du.
Now, Shen Lu is very glad that she doesn't have a good relationship with him.
Otherwise, if something happened to Shen Du, she would feel bad and would definitely help him.
If she really helped Shen Du, she was afraid that Shen Mingguang and Lin Rou would get entangled with her.
Even though Lin Rou is in jail now, she will come out sooner or later. She can't possibly die in prison.
Whether she will reconcile with Shen Mingguang after she comes out is another matter, but she will definitely cling to Shen Du.
Shen Du is her own son. How can it be justified for him not to support his parents?
"What kind of help is it? Your brother isn't disabled. Your dad, um, I mean your adoptive father Uncle Shen, works as a gatekeeper at the university."
Shen Lu was surprised. How come she hadn't heard about this?
"Which university?" Shen Lu asked curiously.
"What, do you want to go see him?"
Zhang Ruoruo's probing gaze made Shen Lu feel somewhat uncomfortable.
"I don't need to look into it, but I can still keep an eye on it."
"You don't know which school he works as a security guard at, do you?"
"Of course I know!" Zhang Ruoruo had done her homework.
"It's right here at the medical university."
Shen Lu immediately realized that Ms. Qin must have found the job for Shen Mingguang.
She certainly didn't want her son to be a doorman for the rest of his life.
I just hope he doesn't become idle and continue to be depressed.
As long as Shen Mingguang is willing to pull himself together, even if he can't make a comeback, supporting himself and his son won't be a problem.
