Rebirth in the 90s: Her Counterattack and Redemption

Chapter 967: Chapter 572: Whereabouts

Zhu Jianglin looked angrily at Luo Ye: "That’s why I feel it’s not worth it for my cousin. You don’t have even the slightest place for him in your heart, yet he sacrificed his future for you."

Seeing that Zhu Jianglin didn’t seem to be lying, Luo Ye hesitated for a moment, then waved to Xing Nongyao who was observing from afar: "Come over!"

"Did you know Zhu Jiangyu dropped out?" As they came closer, Luo Ye asked first.

"Zhu Jiangyu... dropped out?" Xing shook his head quickly, "Didn’t know, when did this happen? Haven’t heard about it."

"Really haven’t heard." Yaoguang quickly echoed.

"It’s ridiculous. My cousin treats all of you as friends." Zhu Jianglin looked hatefully at them, his eyes reddening, "Do you know why I applied to GF University? Because since childhood, my cousin and I have always had the best relationship, the two of us almost talk about everything.

After he got into GF University, I studied tirelessly, hoping to be by his side to support each other, but unexpectedly, shortly after I got in, he left. He treated you as friends, but what do you treat him as?"

As Zhu Jianglin’s words fell, Xing Nong and Yaoguang both hung their heads, Luo Ye sighed lightly, looking at Zhu Jianglin: "Things have come to this, finding a way to remedy it is what’s most important now. I want to know, did he suspend his studies or drop out? And where is he now?"

"He got a certificate from the hospital and suspended his studies." Zhu Jianglin suddenly raised his voice, "You should understand what suspension means at this school."

"Does Uncle Zhu know? How long has it been?"

"Uncle doesn’t know, my cousin submitted his application last month, and he threatened me, saying if I let out even a word, he would disappear." Zhu Jianglin twisted his head, "I have always wanted to find you, unfortunately, you’ve been too busy, if it weren’t for this selection, I’d probably still not have found you. I seriously doubt if the military school’s discipline only applies to civilian children."

"Did the school notify his family?" Luo Ye ignored Zhu Jianglin’s complaints.

Zhu Jianglin shrugged: "Who knows how my cousin talked to them, anyway, Uncle doesn’t know."

...

Old Sichuan Restaurant.

At 6:30 in the evening, it’s the peak time for seating, the lobby and private rooms of the restaurant are filled with guests, well-trained waiters, wearing black pants and white shirts, shuttle between tables, busy but not chaotic.

The head waiter handed a slip to Zhu Jiangyu returning from delivering food: "Little Zhu, 205 is yours as well, can you manage?"

Zhu Jiangyu took the slip cheerfully: "No problem."

"Go ahead."

"Okay." Zhu Jiangyu responded and went to the kitchen.

Ingredient worker Xiao Yu took the slip from him and glanced at it: "Little Zhu, you’re doing great, you’ll make a good amount this month, how about treating everyone to a happy meal at Jiale after payday?"

Zhu Jiangyu nodded with a smile: "Sure, no problem."

"Stop messing around!" Old Jiang in the big kitchen slapped Xiao Yu and turned to Zhu Jiangyu: "Little Zhu, earning a lot is your hard work, don’t listen to Xiao Yu. Save the money and respect your parents, that’s the right path. Besides, at your age, it’s not long before you should get married, how can you manage without saving up a bit?"

Xiao Yu looked at Old Jiang defiantly: "Master, you always advise us to save money save money, but I think, if we don’t enjoy while we’re young, after we settle down and get restrained by a wife, and dragged down by kids, we’ll have no fun even if we want to, isn’t that a big loss?"

"You brat, if your parents thought the same way, would you have grown up?" Old Jiang glared at him and said, "Already twenty-two, still don’t know how to focus, with your attitude, it’ll be hard to find a wife if you keep this up."

Xiao Yu laughed proudly: "Master, you’re just looking at me through a crack. Let me tell you, I already have a girlfriend, your worries are unnecessary."

"Xiao Yu, Master says this now, if you don’t seriously save some money, your girlfriend will leave sooner or later."

"Master, how can you curse me like that?" Xiao Yu glared at the ingredient worker Xiao Yue, who was giggling, "I say, you’re so happy seeing me cursed by Master?"

"Xiao Yue is my apprentice, dare to vent on her again and see how I teach you a lesson." Xiao Yue’s master, Master Nian the head chef, stepped in.

"Master Nian, I was wrong, I was wrong." Xiao Yu quickly begged for mercy, having forgotten how protective Master Nian was.

Master Nian looked at Zhu Jiangyu, "Little Zhu, you’re different from Xiao Yu, even though you don’t speak much, I can see you’re knowledgeable. Listen to Uncle’s advice, for a good future, find a more respectable job."
