Chapter 144 Even Eating Hot Pot Leads to a Chance Encounter

Lu Qianqian had never seen such a scene before. Since they were out to eat, they should eat openly and generously. Why be so stingy?

She shook her head and said, "Since she's a student, forget about the hot pot base, I'll pay for it."

The young woman looked up at Lu Qianqian, clearly surprised by what she said.

Meanwhile, the out-of-town girl sneered, "Oh, you've met a big shot today, treating everyone to a hot pot base. Come on, order quickly, I'm hungry."

Lu Qianqian turned her head to look at Rong Changqing, pouted, and whispered, "I kind of regret sharing a table with him."

"Shall we go?" Rong Changqing suggested.

Lu Qianqian shook her head: "Never mind, it's almost ready to eat anyway."

Once the hot pot was boiling, both sides picked up their chopsticks and started cooking the food they had ordered. Lu Qianqian felt a chill run down her spine and immediately dumped her own food into the pot, saying, "Let's all eat together, it's on me!"

This is the most satisfying way to eat!

The big pot of food cooked quickly, and the tripe was ready to eat in no time. Lu Qianqian was busy scooping out the tripe to eat, and Rong Changqing even helped her.

The out-of-town couple next to them also felt it was inconvenient for them to eat like this, and they were too embarrassed to take Lu Qianqian's food, so they simply put their own food into the pot as well, and said to Lu Qianqian, "Here, my food, you can eat it too."

Lu Qianqian nodded: "Okay, thank you."

Seeing this, the out-of-town couple readily started scooping food from the pot to eat, while the local student couple obediently cooked their own food. Her boyfriend helped her cook duck intestines, looking apologetic, and whispered, "Why don't you eat with them? I brought enough money with me today, so you don't need to save money for me."

The young woman shook her head: "I don't like beef or tripe, so I can't share the money with them. I was just craving it, and some potatoes will satisfy my craving. You should save the money; you'll need to pay your tuition next year."

The little boy lowered his head, his face slightly flushed, perhaps from the heat: "I will work hard in the future and give you a good life."

The young woman nodded and continued biting into her lotus root slice: "Okay, I'll wait."

Rong Changqing happened to be sitting next to the young boy and overheard their conversation. He smiled and asked, "Which school are you from? What's your major?"

The young boy looked up at Rong Changqing and immediately sensed that the man before him was no ordinary person. His every move exuded maturity, not only from his age and experience but also from the influence of his cultural knowledge.

His instinctive answer was: "Rongcheng University, Accounting major."

"What year are you in?" Rong Changqing asked while blanching duck intestines for Lu Qianqian.

The young boy continued, "I'm a junior this year."

Rong Changqing continued to ask, "You were already taking on jobs in your junior year?"

The young man was surprised that the man in front of him had overheard what he had just said. He lowered his head and said, "Yeah, some side jobs at small companies, just to earn some living expenses."

"You've worked hard, young man." Rong Changqing handed the blanched duck intestines to Lu Qianqian, then took out his phone, opened an email, downloaded the report, and handed it to the young man, saying, "Can you take a look and see if this bill is correct?"

Upon hearing this, the young boy did not refuse. With the intention of helping others, he took Rong Changqing's phone with both hands and looked at it carefully.

During this time, the young girl also glanced at him with a puzzled look, and Lu Qianqian tilted her head, not understanding what Rong Changqing was doing.

Less than two minutes later, the boy's face changed, his hand trembled, and his phone fell to the ground. His girlfriend immediately screamed.

"What did you do? This phone isn't cheap!" After saying that, she quickly picked up the phone and handed it to Rong Changqing. "I'm sorry, my boyfriend didn't do it on purpose, and your phone isn't broken."

Rong Changqing waved his hand, not caring, and handed the phone to the boy: "Enter your phone number."

The young boy looked at Rong Changqing with a complicated expression.

However, Rong Changqing simply smiled and said, "You know how big the problem is with the bill I just showed you. Some people simply can't solve the loopholes here, so they want to find a scapegoat. They want to bribe you at a cheap price to make you stupidly help them cover up the bill. But what happened? Their real intentions were not what they seemed!"

When Rong Changqing said this, he deliberately lowered his voice so that only the little boy on his left and right and Lu Qianqian could hear him.

The boy was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat and quickly entered his phone number.

Lu Qianqian was a little confused, not understanding what Rong Changqing was suddenly doing, how a hot pot meal had turned into a bill.

"Alright, let's eat. This meal is on me." After saying that, Rong Changqing continued to cook tripe for Lu Qianqian, as if nothing had happened.

The young couple left shortly after starting their meal, having already paid for the dishes they ordered.

Then the out-of-town couple fought alongside Lu Qianqian until the very end, paid their bill, and left with their pregnant bellies sticking out.

Rong Changqing led Lu Qianqian for a walk to digest their food, and Lu Qianqian then asked about the young boy.

Rong Changqing explained to her, "There are financial problems in Rongcheng. I came here to deal with this. I have already investigated privately. It turns out that the chief financial officer embezzled public funds. This financial officer is a member of the Rong family. He doesn't have much ability. His professional skills are just something he got by. Over the years, he has relied on his subordinates to do the work. However, he doesn't dare to let his subordinates help him cover up the bills. So he specially finds some timid and inexperienced students to handle it."

"So, the boy from earlier was the one who helped this CFO cover up the books?" Lu Qianqian exclaimed in shock. "That's a crime punishable by imprisonment!"

"The kid was probably fooled too. He didn't understand the actual relationships in the bill and did it for a little profit," Rong Changqing said. "Actually, I didn't intend to get involved in this matter, but I just happened to run into it today."

"Huh? So you even found out what this person looks like?" Lu Qianqian asked in surprise.

Rong Changqing nodded: "Yes, there is no secret that Yaoji cannot find out. She has already sent me this person's background and appearance."

"I see." Lu Qianqian nodded. "So you've decided to get involved in this matter now?"

“Rong Ziqing will probably be able to find out the truth in a day or two. He’s a very ruthless man. If this kid falls into his hands, he’ll only end up in jail.” Rong Changqing smiled. “However, this kid has clear eyes, is hardworking, and his girlfriend is very loyal to him. He’s obviously a good person. He can even cover up such a huge debt. He’s obviously a talented person. So I plan to do something good and give him a chance.”

"Wow?" Lu Qianqian was very surprised. "Second Young Master, why do I feel like you're so great at this moment?"

Rong Changqing laughed and said, "The truth?"
