Chapter 25 Claypot Rice

The "lunch" that Bai Hanshan mentioned was taking place on the third floor of the school cafeteria.

Gu Qinghuan was able to keep a straight face when she stepped on the red carpet in the entrance reception hall. However, after she arrived at the small private room on the third floor and the waiter handed out the menu, she could no longer hold on.

"I didn't expect to come here to eat so soon." Gu Qinghuan picked up the menu.

Bai Hanshan didn't look at the menu. He let Gu Qinghuan choose first, picked up the teapot and poured tea into their cups. Then he said, "This place is not as exaggerated as you think."

Gu Qinghuan raised his eyes and looked at Bai Hanshan: "Senior Bai, you have this perception because you are used to it."

Bai Hanshan did not deny her statement: "The main thing is that the current president has an exclusive box here. He can come here to eat at any time in his name, and it is also charged to his account."

Gu Qinghuan was really curious about this president, but for now he decided to order food first.

Today, the menu of the cafeteria on the third floor is all Cantonese cuisine. Gu Qinghuan looked through it and asked hesitantly, "If I say I want to eat clay pot rice, will it seem very unclassy?"

Bai Hanshan almost couldn't help laughing out loud. He relaxed the muscles on his face and said, "Since the chef put this on the menu, it's for people to order. You can eat it if you want."

In fact, if Gu Qinghuan had come to eat with Jiang Chuchu, he would definitely not ask this question and would have ordered directly. However, the person sitting opposite him was Bai Hanshan, so Gu Qinghuan couldn't help but hold the dish.

Hearing him say that, Gu Qinghuan felt a little embarrassed and ordered the clay pot rice happily.

Bai Hanshan also ordered a cup of mango sago for her, and ordered shrimp balls and rice rolls for himself.

While waiting for the food to be served, Bai Hanshan explained to Gu Qinghuan the current internal structure of the Student Union.

Mingde's student union is somewhat different from that of other schools, mainly because the person who took over as the top leader last year was too casual. Because he didn't like being called the student union chairman, he changed it to president.

In addition to the president, there is only one vice president in the office, and the organization department will no longer be set up. The relevant work will be arranged by the vice president, and other cadres will cooperate in handling it. Important matters will be decided by holding cadres meetings or meetings of all members.

As for the Study Department, Propaganda Department, Art Department, Sports Department, Life Department, and Discipline Department, they are not much different from general student unions.

Each department has a minister and a deputy minister, and the number of staff members in a department shall not exceed five.

Gu Qinghuan calculated: "That means the student union will have at most 44 people?"

"Including you, there are now a maximum of 45 people." Bai Hanshan corrected.

Gu Qinghuan was ashamed: "Don't I belong to any department?"

"No, you belong to the office now, and your position is the president's secretary." Bai Hanshan said.

Rather than a secretary, it's more like a toy that was created on a whim, right? Gu Qinghuan complained in his heart.

She perked up: "Besides looking after Senior Xia He, what else do I do?"

She was given an exclusive office, and she felt embarrassed if she didn't do any work.

Bai Hanshan thought that as long as he could control Xia He, Gu Qinghuan wouldn't have to do anything else.

Of course, Xia He didn't want to reveal his identity yet, so he wouldn't say much.

"The specific work content depends on how the president arranges it. I will send you the president's WeChat later. Please add him." Bai Hanshan said.

The WeChat account that Xia He used to add Gu Qinghuan was a small account that he had specially applied for, and the main account was used in his capacity as the president.

Finally, the president was going to be added. Gu Qinghuan was still a little nervous, but after she sent out the application, the other party did not respond, so she slowly put her mind at ease and started to enjoy the clay pot rice that was served.

I can only say that it is worthy of being on the third floor of the cafeteria. A seemingly ordinary clay pot rice tastes completely different.

The rice grains are oily, fresh and fragrant, with distinct particles. The rice crust is crispy and fragrant but not burnt or blackened. The sausage is just the right amount of fat and lean, and tastes salty and sweet in the mouth, not too greasy or too dry. The green vegetables look juicy green without any filters, and have no earthy or bitter taste at all. The ribs in the middle are so crispy and tender that the bones fall off with a lick of the tongue, and the ribs with fascia attached are chewed, giving a spontaneous sense of satisfaction.

Gu Qinghuan finished a whole bowl of clay pot rice. The happiness of eating delicious food made her eyes narrowed: "It's delicious."

Bai Hanshan wanted to order another bowl of clay pot rice. Seeing Gu Qinghuan eating so happily, his appetite improved a lot.

He asked, "Anything else to add?"

Gu Qinghuan quickly shook her head: "No, I'm already very full."

Bai Hanshan felt a little regretful and didn’t want to add any more points. Forget it, let’s talk about it next time.

After lunch, Gu Qinghuan said goodbye to Bai Hanshan and took a bus home.

At the Jiang family's side, which had also finished lunch, Jiang Chuchu felt her stomach bloating.

It's not that I'm too full, but that I'm bloated with gas.

Her father Jiang Youwei had previously promised her that he would investigate the Yu family's situation, but he only handed her the sorted information today.

The people Jiang Youwei found investigated even more thoroughly than the Yu family. They also sorted out Yu Xin's past life experiences in chronological order, and attached some photos and information obtained from asking teachers, classmates, and neighbors.

A girl's life over the past decade was condensed into a few thin pieces of paper, with black words on them, but every word was shocking.

The adoptive parents were unable to give birth to a son, so they paid a fortune teller to tell them the truth. The fortune teller said that they had to first adopt a child who was "destined to have a younger brother" before they could have the son they longed for.

It happened that they met the person who abandoned Yu Xin on the road. Instead of calling the police, they thought that this child was a gift from God, so they took Yu Xin home and lied to their neighbors that they adopted her from an orphanage.

Within half a year, the adoptive mother actually became pregnant.

In the first few years, the adoptive parents were concerned about the fortune teller’s words, thinking that if they drove Yu Xin away, their son brought by Yu Xin might also be "taken away". So they would just give Yu Xin food to eat, and would take him to a small clinic in the countryside to get some medicine when he was sick.

But as time goes by, they become more and more reckless.

Harsh treatment? No, it was pure abuse.

Sometimes it was not because Yu Xin did anything, but because they were in a bad mood, so they would beat or scold Yu Xin, or blame Yu Xin for their own mistakes.

Yu Xin was able to grow up until now thanks to the neighbors and a few kind-hearted people in school who were willing to help, but they could only help secretly.

If her adoptive parents found out, they would think that Yu Xin brought shame upon them, and she would be beaten and scolded even more severely.

Jiang Chuchu held her breath, and the more she looked, the more she felt her heart aching and swollen.

Although the Yu family found Yu Xin before the high school entrance examination, in order to prevent her existence from affecting the high school entrance examination of the fake daughter Yu Yuan, they booked a hotel for her and asked her to live in the hotel before the exam.

But they didn't consider preparing anything else for Yu Xin. Her clothes were still so old, and they didn't announce Yu Xin's true identity to the public.

As a result, rumors spread in her junior high school that "Yu Xin went to high-end hotels every night and did not come out until the morning", and people suspected that she was being kept by someone.

The head teacher's efforts to clarify the matter were of little use. In the end, she let Yu Xin live in her own teacher's dormitory, and the rumors gradually died down.

Yu Xin didn't even get to enjoy the luxurious and comfortable hotel suite for half a month. Instead, it seriously affected her mentality before the exam and her grades fluctuated greatly.

Fortunately, she worked hard to adjust her mindset and returned to the level of a key high school during the high school entrance examination.

After the high school entrance exam, before the results came out, the Yu family showed up again. They didn't check Yu Xin's high school entrance exam results, but only saw that her grades dropped in the last half of the semester.

The Yu family was very disappointed and directly arranged her into Mingde.

Jiang Chuchu looked at Yu Xin's high school entrance examination scores. Although the regions were different, just looking at the scores in each subject, one could tell how excellent she was.

She wanted to scold the Yu family, but Jiang Youwei was sitting opposite her. It was not nice to scold someone older than her in front of her father, so Jiang Chuchu could only hold it in.

She continued to look forward—Yu Xin’s life after returning to the Yu family was worse than she had imagined.
