Rebirth: Splendid Marriage in the 80s

Chapter 2141: Chapter 2077: I’m Not Stupid

Liu Guoying immediately said, ”Then keep your distance from her in the future.”

”I understand, teacher, that’s exactly what I meant too.”

”I don’t know how she got in,” Liu Guoying said. ”I’ll find out later.”

”Teacher, don’t let her know you’re looking into her, it’s best if you keep your distance too.”

”Do you think I’m stupid? Since you said so, would I still go near her?” Liu Guoying said with some displeasure, ”I will be careful when I’m investigating.”

As if he would let her embarrass him.

”Thank you, teacher.”

”Alright, alright, you should hurry to the shop. By the way, how is your father doing?”

”He’s recovering well, so I came to register. Teacher, I’ll head to the shop now.”

Liu Guoying waved his hand.

Upon leaving the school, Chiang Xiao hurried towards Youqingwei.

She felt at ease leaving the investigation to Liu Guoying, as the principal appreciated him and would likely inform him of any inquiries. This was far easier than trying to find out herself.

If the person who helped Ji Yuzhi into the art academy was really Luo Sihu, then that person needed to be extremely cautious.

Who knows when Tyrant Meng would return.

Chiang Xiao had heard from Liu Guoying about how well Youqingwei’s business was doing, but seeing it with her own eyes was truly astonishing.

There was actually a queue outside Youqingwei!

People were queuing up for a seat!

Although there seemed to be only seven or eight people at the door, it was definitely a scene of people waiting for a spot.

Chiang Xiao never thought that a shop could have such queues today.

She went inside and saw the place previously set up for music performances, with a table and a chair, a plum vase, and an incense burner on the table. A young girl in a beige cotton dress, with two braided pigtails, sat behind it, playing the pipa.

The melodies of the pipa were winding and lingering, bringing an instant peace to one’s mind.

The girl had a smooth forehead, fair skin, healthy rosy cheeks, clear red lips, and played the pipa with great focus.

She hadn’t seen this girl before, but her pipa playing was truly excellent.

Inside, all the seats were taken.

The customers mostly had a pot of tea and two kinds of snacks before them. Some sat alone, lost in thought with the pipa’s notes, some whispered in pairs, while some groups of four or five sat together, smiling but speaking in hushed tones.

There was a very peaceful and leisurely feeling.

Moreover, the customers included young boys and girls, elderly people with white hair, and mature women with charm.

This was exactly what Chiang Xiao hoped for.

This was the kind of shop she wanted.

Chiang Xiao suddenly felt a bit moved.

She had not thought that this shop could truly open in the way she had envisioned.

For this, she truly needed to thank Cheng Qiulian.

It was clear that she was dedicated and invested in this work.

”Hello, classmate, are you alone? You might have to wait a bit, as there are no available seats for now, please understand,” a female staff member approached with a gentle smile, addressing Chiang Xiao.

Chiang Xiao shook her head, ”I’m here to see Aunt Cheng.”

Here, all the staff referred to Cheng Qiulian as Aunt Cheng.

The title of manager does not exist yet.

”Aunt Cheng is upstairs. Shall I go get her for you?”

”No need, I’ll go up myself. You’re busy, I know her personally.”

Chiang Xiao said with a slight smile.

Her staff didn’t recognize her.

Going upstairs, Chiang Xiao saw Cheng Qiulian sitting at a table with another woman, seemingly engaged in a low conversation.
