Rebirth in the 90s: Her Counterattack and Redemption

Chapter 1615 - 930: Pursuit (Part 2)

"If you’re not sleeping, get up." Tang Luo yawned, "Freshen up and let’s go downstairs. Yesterday Brother Qi helped us a lot; let’s not keep him waiting."

"You both didn’t sleep well, did you?" Tang Luo gave an awkward smile, "Maybe after breakfast, you can come back and catch up on sleep?"

Xing Nongbai glanced at her, then went to the bathroom.

Tang Luo looked at Yaoguang: "Yao Yao..."

"Hey..." Yaoguang forced a fake smile, slipped on her slippers, and went to the other bathroom. They were staying in a deluxe VIP double room with two bathrooms, a design that made it easier for roommates to manage when they got drunk.

"Hey..." Tang Luo pulled a fake smile at the mirror, "Can the mistakes we make when we’re drunk really be taken seriously? I just don’t believe it, not when you’re sober."

Xing Nong’s head peered out from the bathroom: "Don’t worry, even when we’re drunk, it’s not because we’ve been secretly drinking."

"Sorry..." Tang Luo climbed onto the bed and stood between the two bathrooms, "In the future, I won’t secretly drink more. Actually, you’ve always been my most trusted friends. I just didn’t want you to worry and was afraid you’d laugh at me for being useless, so I didn’t dare show it in front of you..."

...

"Brother Qi, I’m sorry, I..." Tang Luo’s face flushed red as she looked at Qi Bin sitting across from her, unsure how to explain.

"It’s all right." Qi Bin smiled warmly at her, "Let’s eat quickly. Drink some porridge. If you drink too much on an empty stomach, it’ll feel worse."

Xing Nong pouted, "I’ve realized, anyone who marries Brother Qi in the future will definitely be very happy..."

"Marry me, and you’ll be equally happy." Lu Lu said as he placed a small steamed bun on Xing Nong’s plate, "Drink some porridge before eating, so you don’t choke."

Xing Nong was speechless: "Are you taking care of people or treating me like an idiot? Don’t I know to drink porridge before eating, so I don’t choke myself to death?"

Lu Lu quickly said, "My fault, because I tend to make that mistake, that’s why I’m reminding you."

"Oh, so you’re the idiot..." Xing Nong couldn’t help but ask Qu Yue, who was looking around, "Young Master, what are you searching for?"

"Just checking if Teacher Wang and his group have come down. I told them yesterday to come down at 8:30 for breakfast and leave at 9:30, but I haven’t seen them yet."

"There’s Manager Li, they won’t starve. By the way..." Xing Nong looked puzzled at him, "Why let them leave so late?"

"Isn’t he still concerned about the school’s payment issue? The bank only opens after 8:30. He can check the account after eating..." Qu Yue shook his head helplessly, "I’ve never seen a school like this. They can’t be stingy about such things."

"It wouldn’t matter anyway, he could just check when he gets back, right?" Yaoguang was puzzled too, even though they hadn’t met Li Xiaoyan’s group, they knew the situation.

"It’s different in meaning." Qu Yue sighed lightly, "Teacher Wang is worried. If he goes back without checking the account, that financial director will give him a hard time."

"What logic is that? Clearly, they ran short on funds, which is why these people can’t return. How is it that he has a reason for withholding the funds?"

Qu Yue chuckled bitterly, "Qiu’er, this is a small place, logic doesn’t get you far. Just think about it, if that financial director could understand this logic, would he be withholding the funds?"

"To him, Teacher Wang and his group didn’t come here for a competition, but for a trip, so he’s giving the money very reluctantly!"

"That financial director must be out of his mind, right? How can someone like that remain in such an important position when students have won honors for the school, and he still envies them..." Xing Nong said, suddenly slapping her forehead and turning to look at Qi Bin, "Brother Qi, isn’t Shangguan Town under your jurisdiction?"

"Yes, I mostly understand. I’ll have a thorough investigation carried out when I return, and also..." Qi Bin sighed, "It’s not just this one school. We’ll have to investigate all the schools in the city. This isn’t about educating, it’s about leading astray!"

"I’ll call and check if it’s because Teacher Wang is too embarrassed to come down to eat..." Qu Yue said as he dialed Li Xiaoyan’s phone, exchanged a few words, then hung up with a wry smile, "I guessed right, Teacher Wang went out early to buy fried dough sticks and pancakes for the students."

Xing Nong grinned at him, "Didn’t buy for you?"

"He did, so now I need to go upstairs to check. Take your time eating." Qu Yue smiled apologetically at everyone and went upstairs.

"Don’t you feel that Young Master has changed a lot?" Xing Nong leaned forward and whispered.
