Chapter 195: Too Similar

"Haha, Rongrong, you finally came out. Why haven't you been answering my calls? I thought you stayed at school again this year." Seeing the girl, Zhang Yu's face was instantly piled with smiles.

"Zhang Yu, what are you doing? Does my family setting up a small stall here affect you? Are you in charge of street management?" the girl asked angrily.

"I'm not, but protecting the environment is everyone's responsibility, right?" Zhang Yu wore a shameless expression.

"Exactly, Brother Yu is helping us out of a sense of duty. Guo Wanrong, go have a meal with Brother Yu, and we'll call this matter even. Otherwise, we'll confiscate your business license and make it so you can't operate," a manager behind Zhang Yu wearing a crooked hat laughed.

"That's right, go have a meal with Brother Yu. He's been chasing you since he was in diapers, and you still haven't paid him any mind. That's going too far."

"Is Brother Yu's family situation not good enough? Once you marry Brother Yu, who in town would dare to mess with you?" A group of managers burst into laughter; these people were all temporary workers, practically like thugs.

"In your dreams, get out of here right now," Guo Wanrong said, brandishing a spatula as a threat.

"Do you know you're even more charming when you're fierce?" Zhang Yu laughed loudly, not afraid in the slightest. "Guo Wanrong, I'm serious about pursuing you. Is it really that hard to give me some face and agree to have a meal with me?"

"After we eat, we can go to bed and do some exercise; isn't that great? Why do you have to keep people at such a distance?"

"Scoundrel." Guo Wanrong was furious. The shop was busy at the moment, and this guy was here causing trouble. She picked up a bowl of seasoning and splashed it right at Zhang Yu.

Splash! The bowl was full of chili oil. The spicy chili oil instantly made his eyes, mouth, and nose burn with heat.

"Ah, ah..." Zhang Yu began to scream. Tears streamed from his eyes, and the people beside him hurriedly handed him water.

Several bottles of water were poured down, but he was still in so much pain that he couldn't even open his eyes.

"Confiscate her business license. This woman really doesn't know what's good for her." The group of managers was enraged. They stepped forward, overturned the cold noodle stall, and walked into the shop to start driving people out: "Stop eating, get out, unlicensed operation."

One of the managers grabbed the business license off the wall, slammed it onto the ground, stomped on it a few times, and tore the license to shreds.

The tables inside were overturned, and the customers left one after another. Zhang Yu clamored, "Smash her shop, smash it right now."

"Do you people have any regard for the law? I'm calling the police right now," Guo Wanrong said angrily.

"Guo Wanrong, you bitch with a mother but no father, I've chased you for so long, and you still treat me with indifference. Fine, today I'm going to teach you a real lesson," Zhang Yu shouted, his eyes swollen and red.

Chen Yu, who had been calmly eating on the side, felt a stir in his heart upon hearing this and looked up at Guo Wanrong.

He saw that although the girl was dressed like a cook, the temperament she possessed could not be hidden no matter what. No matter how he looked at her, she did not seem like a farm girl.

Chen Yu flipped through the photo of Guo Zhen and looked at the girl; he was slightly shocked in his heart. Could it really be such a coincidence?

Although the photo of Guo Zhen was from a long time ago and somewhat blurry, she looked sixty or seventy percent similar to the girl in front of him. Could she be the person he was looking for?

"Chen Yu..." At this moment, Yan Roujin also noticed something and looked at Chen Yu with pleasant surprise.

"Are you two not going to get lost yet? What are you eating? You won't starve if you miss one meal," a man cursed at Chen Yu and kicked over the table in front of them.

"Are you street managers or thugs?" Chen Yu asked angrily.

"What's it to you? If you don't want to die, get lost quickly and don't meddle in other people's business," one of them pointed at Chen Yu and said fiercely.

"Try pointing at me again," Chen Yu glanced at the man.

"Kid, you're looking for a beating, aren't you? You even dare to meddle in Brother Yu's business? You're courting death." The man was furious, picked up an object, and smashed it toward Chen Yu.

Chen Yu flicked his foot, and the bowl that had just fallen to the ground flew up with a 'whoosh'. With a 'bang', the bowl smashed heavily into the guy's face. The guy didn't even have time to groan before he fell straight to the ground.

Without waiting for the group to react, Chen Yu stood up with a 'whoosh' and slapped one person away. The poor guy didn't even understand the situation before his head made intimate contact with the floor, and then he fell to the ground with a thud, motionless.

Chen Yu kicked another person away, then followed with a side kick, and another guy was put down on the ground. After a clean and efficient set of movements, everyone had been knocked down.

Now, except for the idiot-like Zhang Yu, no one at the scene could stand.

"Your surname is Guo? What is your mother's name?" After knocking these people down, Chen Yu asked urgently.

"I... I took my mother's surname. Thank you." Guo Wanrong was a bit dazed. One had to know that Zhang Yu was a local bully. This town was far from the capital, and he was practically a local emperor here; almost no one dared to provoke him. Yet, someone actually dared to lay a hand on him?

"You bastard, who are you? You dare to meddle in my business? Go out and ask around who I, Zhang Yu, am." Zhang Yu's temper flared up instantly.

"Shut up." With a slap, 'snap', the guy was knocked against the wall by Chen Yu. He didn't even groan, covered his mouth, and ran away as if fleeing for his life.

"You, who are you?" Guo Wanrong looked at Chen Yu in surprise.

"Hello, we would like to ask you about something," Yan Roujin stood up. "May I ask if your mother's name is Guo Zhen? And did you take your mother's surname?"

"My mother's name isn't Guo Zhen, her name is Guo Li," Guo Wanrong shook her head.

"Ah?" Yan Roujin was stunned, feeling slightly disappointed.

"But I did indeed take my mother's surname." Guo Wanrong's words made the two of them happy again.

"Then... what about your father?" Chen Yu asked tentatively.

"What are you two doing?" Guo Wanrong looked at them with vigilance.

"Don't be afraid, we have no ill intentions. Take a look, do you recognize this photo?" Yan Roujin took out the photo of Guo Zhen.

"This is a photo of my mother when she was young. How did you know about it?" Guo Wanrong was shocked.

"It really is you." Chen Yu and Yan Roujin were overjoyed.

"Who on earth are you?" Guo Wanrong was even more confused, but then she said urgently, "You should leave quickly. That guy Zhang Yu is a local bully. You hit him, so he will definitely come back for revenge. Thank you for what happened just now."

"It's fine. Where is your mother now? I am a friend of your father's; he entrusted me to come and find you and your mother," Yan Roujin said happily.

"You must be mistaken. My mother told me that my father passed away when I was just born. She raised me all by herself. She worked hard to put me through university, and I'm currently preparing for the postgraduate entrance exam. I'm over twenty years old and have never seen my father," Guo Wanrong said, shocked.

"Please believe us. Will you take us to see your mother? Your father misses you both very much now. There was some misunderstanding between them back then, and this mistake has lasted for over twenty years. Will you take me to see her?" Yan Roujin said urgently.
