Siheyuan, Kaiju replaced He Yuzhu as the chef

Yan Bugui's words were like adding fuel to the fire, completely igniting Ran Qiuye's anger.

She slammed the table fiercely, and said angrily: "How can there be such shameless men and women?"

He Yuzhu was panicked when he saw the situation was not good. He hurriedly explained: "Teacher Ran, don't listen to their nonsense. Sister Qin and I are just ordinary friends. We have no other relationship at all. She helped me wash clothes, and it was just a casual thing. It's innocent!"

Ran Qiuye interrupted coldly: "I don't care what your relationship is, don't be disgusting in front of me! People like you, if you don't repent, will be criticized sooner or later!"

Seeing that the situation was completely out of control, He Yuzhu could only bow his head and agree: "Teacher Ran, you are right. I will definitely change in the future and never dare to do it again."

But his words obviously could not save the situation.

After saying this, he glared at Lu Qing fiercely, his heart full of resentment.

Lu Qing didn't care at all. He crossed his arms and asked calmly, "Then should I return my apprenticeship fee?"

He Yuzhu didn't expect Lu Qing to not let him go, and he gritted his teeth in anger: "You..."

Lu Qing said calmly, "Why, you don't want to pay it back? Is this what you call correction?"

He Yuzhu glanced at Yan Bugui, then looked at Ran Qiuye, who was full of disgust, knowing that if he didn't agree today, the consequences would be even worse. He gritted his teeth and finally compromised: "I will give it back!"

"Then give me the money." Lu Qing stretched out his hand.

He Yuzhu said reluctantly: "I don't have that much money on me now, I'll give it to you later."

But he sneered in his heart and planned to find a way to delay it after returning.

However, Bang Geng spoke at an inopportune moment: "Uncle Sha, didn't you put some money on you? Did you forget?"

He Yuzhu's face changed, and he almost jumped up in anger: "You stinky boy, what nonsense are you talking about!"

Bang Geng pouted aggrievedly: "I didn't lie, everything I said is true."

He Yuzhu was annoyed. He originally asked Banggeng to help, but this guy ended up ruining his own plans.

Ran Qiuye watched all this with obvious disgust in her eyes. He Yuzhu clearly had money on him, but he was unwilling to pay it back on the spot. His so-called "repentance" was obviously just lip service.

Lu Qing chuckled and asked, "Why, you don't want to pay it back?"

He Yuzhu gritted his teeth and took out money from his bag indignantly. After counting, he handed Lu Qing eighty yuan: "These are all I have now. I'll give you the rest later."

However, Lu Qing did not take it, but smiled faintly: "Will you really give it to me later?"

He Yuzhu was unhappy: "I said I would give it to you, and I will give it to you!"

Lu Qing shook his head: "I don't believe in your credit. We are still in the compound, just a few steps away, you can go back and get it for me."

He Yuzhu's face suddenly darkened, and his voice was frighteningly cold: "Lu Qing, don't push your luck!"

Lu Qing sneered: "Who on earth took my money and refused to return it? You are biting back."

Ran Qiuye also said mercilessly: "Since it is his money, you should return it to him. How can you occupy it and not return it?"

He Yuzhu tried to argue: "Teacher Ran, you don't understand the ins and outs of the matter, don't be fooled by him."

Ran Qiuye interrupted impatiently: "I only saw that you didn't keep your word. As for other things, I'm not the village committee, so I can't control so much."

He Yuzhu was speechless and completely embarrassed. He didn't know how to respond for a moment.

Lu Qing still folded his arms, and said calmly: "Stop talking nonsense, go back and get the money, I'll wait here."

He Yuzhu was filled with rage, but in front of Ran Qiuye, he knew that continuing to resist would only make his image worse.

In desperation, he gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, you wait for me!" There was reluctance in his tone.

Lu Qing smiled calmly and didn't take He Yuzhu's threat seriously at all.

He had planned all this long ago, using Ran Qiuye as a middleman to force He Yuzhu to pay back the money.

He Yuzhu likes Ran Qiuye and dares not offend her, let alone go against her wishes, for fear of leaving a worse impression on her.

As expected, He Yuzhu finally gave in.

He Yuzhu left angrily. Yan Bugui shook his head helplessly and said to Ran Qiuye, "Teacher Ran, I didn't expect him to do such a thing. It really opened my eyes."

Ran Qiuye sighed and looked at Lu Qing: "I never thought that so many people in this compound would be bullied by him."

Lu Qing smiled bitterly: "When I was young, I was also deceived by him. I thought he would really teach me skills. I wasted three years, but fortunately I recognized his true face."

"But I'd like to trouble Teacher Ran to stay for a while today. He won't dare to act recklessly while you're here."

Ran Qiuye nodded. Although she felt a little strange in her heart, she had promised Yan Bugui, so it would not be appropriate for her to leave directly.

Now that the problem has occurred, there's no harm in helping out. It's just a piece of cake anyway.

At the same time, He Yuzhu returned to the Central Court angrily.

Qin Huairu was anxiously waiting for news. Seeing his angry look, she secretly rejoiced in her heart and pretended to be concerned and asked, "What's wrong? Didn't it work?"

He Yuzhu said angrily: "I just talked to Teacher Ran for a few words, and Lu Qing actually butted in!"

"What? What's going on?" Qin Huairu asked in confusion.

"Nothing, I'll tell you later." He Yuzhu was in a bad mood. He walked straight into the house, took out his box and started looking for money.

When Qin Huairu saw him taking the money, her face changed and she wondered: What was he going to do? Did Ran Qiuye agree to it so quickly? Was this money a betrothal gift?

"What are you going to do with the money?" Qin Huairu couldn't help but ask.

"Lu Qing gave me 200 yuan as a discipleship fee, and now I want to return it to him." He Yuzhu said gritting his teeth.

"What? You're going to give him the money back?" Qin Huairu couldn't believe it. How could He Yuzhu pay the money back? This was not like his style at all.

He Yuzhu snorted coldly: "Return this little money to him first, he will suffer in the future!"

Qin Huairu looked at He Yuzhu's departing back, her heart full of doubts.

He Yuzhu actually returned the money to Lu Qing for no reason. What happened behind this?

Soon, He Yuzhu returned to Yan Bugui's home with the stack of money in his hand.

He was reluctant, but still said, "It just so happens that Uncle San and Teacher Ran are here today, and they can bear witness for me. I have already returned the money to Lu Qing, and from now on, he and I will not owe each other anything, and we will have nothing to do with each other!"

After saying this, he reluctantly handed the money to Lu Qing.

Lu Qing took the money, counted it carefully, confirmed that it was two hundred yuan, and then put the money carefully into his bag.

He glanced at Ran Qiuye and said politely, "Teacher Ran, thank you very much today."

After saying that, he turned and left.

Yan Bugui looked at Lu Qing's back, stunned for a moment, and then suddenly realized: In everything that happened today, he was used by Lu Qing!
