Chapter 187: Chapter 187: Bao’er!
"Dugu Bao’er? Yes, she exists, she’s in the fifth grade,"
Observing the curiosity in Old Liu’s eyes, Chu You knew he was wondering how he knew about the girl.
"There’s been some information about this girl’s background recently, it’s not simple. I came to see her and wanted to learn more about the situation," Chu You vaguely explained.
Indeed, after hearing this, Liu Lao nodded and put his doubts to rest.
"Let’s go, she’s on the third floor!"
"As for Dugu Bao’er, she is technically 10 years old, but she’ll turn 11 in a few months. She’s a lovely and sensible girl."
"She came to the compound when she was three. I vividly remember that it was your parents who brought her here personally. And this Bao’er is exceptionally talented and clever with outstanding performance, she was promoted a grade higher early on."
"As for her personality, she’s not someone to mess with. The kids in her grade are scared of her. She’s rather aloof, which aligns with her noble surname, standing proud and aloof among her classmates as the class representative."
Hearing the president characterizing the child, Chu You nodded, feeling strangely sweet inside.
"Old Liu knows a lot about this child."
"Hey, she’s a priority in our care and how can I not be clear. Based on the compound policy, she is destined to enter your Tianchu Group."
Chu You vaguely knew about this opaque system in the compound, emphasizing on nurturing outstanding students as future elites, imbuing them with a strong sense of loyalty to Tianchu Group from an early age. If they maintain their excellence, they will join high-ranking departments of Tianchu Group directly.
Soon, the two arrived at Bao’er’s classroom.
Chu You and Liu Lao stood together, and Liu Lao pointed to the window and said: "Look, the girl in the fourth seat on the third row, that’s Dugu Bao’er."
Following Liu Lao’s line of sight, when Chu You saw the girl’s childishly innocent face, he felt a jolt in his heart. Finally, he was certain. The adorable girl with bright and charming features was his girlfriend from his past life who never left him, helping him to escape from the abyss of self-destructive despair.
Now, that diligent Bao’er with cute braids, bangs combed neatly over her forehead, her large, expressive eyes focused with intensity, dressed in a summer princess dress which looked rather worn out.
There was no air conditioner in the classroom, only ceiling fans constantly blowing, supposedly to ’build up their physique.’
Bao’er seemed to sense something unusual. Her eyes suddenly, without any provocation, turned towards Chu You outside the window. At this moment, Chu You and she were locked into a stare, Bao’er had no impurities in her dark and pure eyes.
The image of that face in his mind slowly overlapped with the little girl in front of him, and the moment Chu You immersed himself in that thought, the next instant...
Bao’er, out of the blue, stood up, pointed at the perplexed Chu You, and said to the teacher: "Teacher, this guy keeps looking at me!"
Damn...this Bao’er!
’Whoosh’, the eyes of all forty students in the class and the teacher’s were drawn towards the window. The teacher was surprised to see the two outside. Upon recognizing one of them was the president, she quickly told Bao’er to sit down and then stepped outside.
"Let me introduce you, this is the CEO of Tianchu Group, Chu You. He came to inspect the compound today," said Liu Lao.
"Hello, I apologize for disturbing your class," Chu You said casually, extending his hand.
"It’s okay, it’s okay," the female teacher quickly waved her hands, exchanged a handshake with Chu You and returned to the classroom.
Chu You turned to Liu Lao and said, "I’d like to have lunch with Dugu Bao’er alone. I want to ask her some things."
"Of course, that’s absolutely no problem." After that, they did not linger, briefly visited the junior high and high school sections before leaving.
Just as they left, the bell rang signaling the end of the last class. It was lunchtime for students and staff alike, and a horde of children promptly crowded the classroom doors.
Dugu Bao’er also stood up and took her lunch box, ready to go to the canteen, when the female teacher stopped her.
The female teacher looked at Bao’er with a stern expression, an expression Bao’er had never seen before. She felt a pang of unease.
"Bao’er, do you know who that young man was just now? He is the boss you will report to in the future when you join the Tianchu Group, the highest-ranking official! Everything you have, your food, clothes, and education, are all provided by him."
"Oh, I see. Do I need to apologize to him?" The conspicuous nervousness in Bao’er’s eyes, she asked in a timid voice, looking even more lovable.
Maybe realizing that her tone was too severe, the female teacher softened a bit, "No need, he probably didn’t even notice you. But you must have lunch with him, he personally requested it. It’s a great honor! When he asks about the situation in the compound, you should paint a positive picture, got it?" she continued, giving Bao’er some advice as they walked.
When she heard that he didn’t take her actions to heart, Bao’er felt much relieved. But she was also a bit nervously excited. To have a meal with the highest official of Tianchu Group? And to be questioned by him, Bao’er felt a bit pressured.
In the canteen, Chu You, along with Old Xiang and others inspected the working staff who all held recently washed trays in their hands. They were serving food in an area full of food along with the students.
Without any special treatment, Chu You gathered a few dishes on his tray and walked to a secluded spot, while someone else took care of Bao’er.
After a couple of bites, the flavors were decent. Anyway, definitely no match for the chef at home.
Before long, an elegant young girl carrying a lunch box filled with food came up to Chu You.
"Good day, Mr. President!" she said in her young, pleasant voice.
Closer observation revealed Bao’er’s finely-featured face, but it was clear that she was nervous.
Chu You gave a warm smile, "Come sit here."
Bao’er sat next to Chu You and placed the lunch box on the table. Looking at the lunch she had served herself, she suddenly realized, she had no appetite...
"How old are you?" Chu You asked cheerfully. In his previous life, she dared to lie about her age, claiming she was only 19.
"I’m 10, I’ll be 11 soon," Bao’er didn’t touch her meal.
"Hmm, your name is Dugu Bao’er, isn’t it?"
"Are you doing okay here?"
"Has anyone been bullying you?"
"Bao’er, eat."
Seeing Bao’er not touching her food, Chu You spoke, "Don’t you like the canteen’s food?"
Bao’er shook her head, "Today’s meals are delicious". After saying this she picked up her chopsticks and started eating. Watching Bao’er eat, Chu You felt touched. This situation was truly miraculous!
