Transmigrated into a female-oriented novel, and put an end to the domineering CEOs all over the city
Chapter 37 Handling the Aftermath
Back in the apartment, the fingerprint lock beeped softly, and the door opened.
Hearing the noise, the study door was carefully opened a crack.
Lin Yutang peeked out and, seeing Lu Jingxiu and Xu Na, breathed a sigh of relief and gave a faint smile: "You're back?"
The voice is soft.
She was still wearing the same dress she wore that morning, revealing her fair calves.
As Xu Na stood in the entryway changing her shoes, she glanced at Lin Yutang and was immediately overwhelmed by a deep sense of powerlessness.
There's a little white flower at home, and another little white flower at school.
What's wrong with this older brother?
Does it have some special constitution that makes it specifically attract these seemingly harmless, pitiful little white flowers?
When they were broken open, each one inside was blacker than the last.
Dealing with Li Qingqing was already a headache for her, but in this life, Lu Jingxiu has given her another opponent.
Is it because they think she has experience and advantages as a reborn person, so they deliberately increased the difficulty and challenge for her in this life?
She took a deep breath and suppressed her agitation.
Forget it, there's no use thinking about it now. No matter what, the biggest enemy right now is still Li Qingqing.
Xu Na weakly raised her hand towards Lin Yutang as a greeting.
Then she went straight into her room, opened her suitcase, took out a stack of clean clothes, and as she walked to the bathroom door, she glanced back at Lu Jingxiu, her tone casual:
"Brother, I need to take a shower and change. You can come in anytime if you want to go to Germany."
After she finished speaking, the bathroom door slammed shut behind her.
Lu Jingxiu: "..."
His lips twitched. This cheap little sister of his really knew how to apply what she learned.
Lin Yutang stood at the door of the study, staring blankly at the scene, her expression one of utter astonishment.
There was so much information in Xu Na's words that she didn't know which part to understand first.
Seeing her expression, Lu Jingxiu rubbed his temples and explained without changing his expression, "Oh, she means I shouldn't go in, otherwise she'll break my legs and send me to Germany to see an orthopedic doctor."
Lin Yutang was stunned for a moment, then couldn't help but smile, her eyes also showing a hint of amusement.
She nodded and whispered an "Oh".
"And you?" Lu Jingxiu walked to the sofa in the living room and sat down, asking casually, "What were you doing in the study just now?"
"I'm looking up information online," Lin Yutang said softly as she walked over and sat down on the single sofa next to him.
Looking up information? Lu Jingxiu then remembered that Lin Yutang's job situation was still unresolved. He had been so busy dealing with his own affairs that he had forgotten about it.
He asked, "What's your educational background?"
Lin Yutang paused for a moment, as if someone had touched on some past event she didn't want to talk about.
She lowered her eyes, pursed her lips, and after a long while spoke: "I didn't graduate from university... I was sold to Germany. My uncle helped me get a leave of absence from school."
The living room was quiet for a few seconds.
Lu Jingxiu nodded thoughtfully.
If you don't graduate from university, you only have a high school diploma. With a high school diploma, you can't even meet the minimum requirements to apply for a civil service exam, let alone take the exam.
"Which university granted the leave of absence?" he asked again.
"Badu University"
Lu Jingxiu raised an eyebrow.
So she's also from Badu University? No wonder she was able to find me so easily on campus last time.
He thought for a moment and quickly came up with an idea: "With your current educational background, you can't take the civil service exam. How about this, you go back to school and finish your studies, get your university degree, and then consider taking the civil service exam."
Lin Yutang opened her mouth, as if she wanted to say something, but Lu Jingxiu had already stood up: "I'll make a phone call and ask."
He went back to his room, closed the door, and dialed his mother's number.
She briefly recounted the events, emphasizing that Lin Yutang was a "victim of human trafficking," "in need of help," and "wanted to complete her studies."
Lu's mother readily agreed on the phone: "Returning to school is no problem, just follow the regulations. As long as the leave of absence hasn't exceeded two years, it can be processed. Send me that girl's information, and I'll help her with the procedures."
After hanging up the phone, Lu Jingxiu felt that the matter was basically settled. He walked out of the room and told Lin Yutang the good news.
However, Lin Yutang did not feel the joy he had expected after hearing this.
"I...I don't want to go back to school," she said, her head down, her voice soft, each word carefully chosen before being uttered. "I...I don't feel safe. I've been locked up for too long. I'm too scared to go to class with so many people, and I don't really know how to talk to others."
"In crowded places, I always feel like Trish's people are watching me..."
"...I'm sorry, I...I can't adapt..."
She glanced at Lu Jingxiu, then quickly lowered her head again, as if awaiting judgment.
She knew this request was unreasonable; people were kindly trying to help her get back to school, but she said she didn't want to.
Looking at her like this, Lu Jingxiu understood.
That experience left her with deep psychological trauma.
She is currently extremely insecure and has an instinctive fear and aversion to unfamiliar environments and people.
Forcing her back to the collective environment of university might not be a help to her, but rather another form of torture.
He didn't offer any inspirational quotes. This girl had just crawled out of hell not long ago, so it was perfectly normal for her to be afraid of crowds and unfamiliar environments.
He was silent for a few seconds, then nodded: "Okay, I understand. Let's put school on hold for now."
Lin Yutang looked up in surprise, not expecting him to agree so easily.
"Let's try a different approach," Lu Jingxiu said, sitting down on the sofa next to her. "You can also take the civil service exam with an adult university degree. If you take this route, you don't have to go to school, and you have more freedom in your schedule."
"Take two or three years to get your diploma. In the meantime, I'll find you a less demanding job, like working as a clerical auxiliary police officer at a police station. The work environment is relatively simple, and it will allow you to gradually get acquainted with society and gain some experience."
After he finished speaking, he looked at Lin Yutang and asked, "How about you retake the civil service exam after you get your diploma?"
Lin Yutang's eyes suddenly welled up with tears.
She bit her lip tightly, desperately telling herself not to cry.
However, this person kindly helped her contact the school to resume her studies, but she refused to go back to school. Not only did the person not blame her, but they also understood her difficulties and came up with another gentler solution that was more suitable for her current situation.
She is actually a very strong person. Even when she was imprisoned abroad, she did not give up and tried to escape many times.
But this person in front of her was just too good to her, and she... she couldn't control herself.
She sniffed hard, forcibly suppressing the sour feeling, then bit her lip tightly, focusing her attention on the pain.
Then, she nodded heavily, her voice choked but clear: "Yes! Thank you, Lu Jingxiu, I... I will try my best."
Lu Jingxiu looked at her expression, which clearly showed she was about to cry but was desperately trying to hold it back, and sighed inwardly.
He didn't say anything more, just nodded, took out his phone, and stood up.
"Okay, I'll go back to my room and make a call. I have a task for you: find out which restaurants nearby have high ratings. I want to try them tonight."
"……Um."
