The two returned home and cleaned up the mess in the main hall. Looking at the drafty window, Bai Jiaojiao sighed.
I can't go back to the dorm to sleep now, otherwise I'll definitely wake up others.
"Let's make do for one night. I'll go find someone to cut the glass tomorrow."
Shen Heng closed the window frame that Gao Peifu had smashed open, and then drew the curtains.
In a sense, this can be considered a barrier.
It's a bit like burying one's head in the sand.
Bai Jiaojiao smiled and said, "Okay, I don't have class tomorrow either, so we can talk all night."
"Not going to sleep? If you're not going to sleep, do something else. What's the point of talking?"
"Stop!" Bai Jiaojiao looked at the broken window behind the curtains. "Let someone outside hear us!"
"Just kidding. Go to sleep, I'll keep watch for you. Tomorrow we'll go to the supply and marketing cooperative and buy some more plates and bowls."
With Xiang Anqi's words, Gao Peifu was arrested, and even if his brother-in-law was bold, he wouldn't dare to release Gao Peifu on his own.
The court hearing has been repeatedly postponed, and it's unclear where the procedure went wrong.
Bai Jiaojiao's life will continue as normal, but she no longer has to worry about Gao Peifu harassing her.
The manuscript she helped translate received high praise from Xiang Anqi, and she even received a service fee of five yuan.
"Has anyone notified you when the court hearing will be held?" Two weeks have passed, and Xiang Anqi asks Bai Jiaojiao about this every time they meet.
"Not yet, they probably need to process it themselves, it could take a month or two."
Bai Jiaojiao's familiarity with the law stemmed from being forced into it by Ding Shifang's harassment in her past life.
You absolutely have to let me know.
"I will definitely call for help; I'm counting on you to back me up."
The other teachers in Xiang Anqi's office had already heard him talk about this before. Hearing their conversation, they laughed and said, "Our Professor Xiang really treats you like a precious gem. He's never been this attentive to his own graduate students. You should thank him properly."
"I remember it all!"
Bai Jiaojiao was all smiles, which made everyone feel good.
Bai Jiaojiao had another class in the evening, and it was already past nine o'clock when she finished.
Chen Meizhen stopped everyone, saying she wanted to start a class meeting.
At the end of the class meeting, Chen Meizhen said, "Before you leave, each of you should give me 50 cents of class money."
"Five cents? Why pay so much? Where will the class funds go?" Shu Manling muttered under her breath.
She lived entirely on the school's subsidies, leading a very frugal life. She couldn't even afford a five-cent steamed bun, and she would even break a cornbread in half to eat twice a day, morning and evening.
With this 50 cents, she wouldn't need to eat or drink for several days.
Upon hearing this, Chen Meizhen said impatiently, "The midterm exams are coming up soon, and the class representative is planning to ask the teacher for some review materials and key points to photocopy."
Five cents per person, a whole class only gets ten yuan and fifty cents, that's not even enough to buy her a pen.
“I don’t need to print out the review materials; I can copy them by hand.” Shu Manling’s face flushed red, but what did face matter when it came to money?
"This money isn't just for this one time; it will be deducted from any future group expenses! Are you not going to participate in group activities anymore?"
Chen Meizhen's questioning left Shu Manling feeling utterly ashamed.
"Then I don't need the documents, can I submit less?"
Everyone could see how frugal Shu Manling was in her daily life.
Bai Jiaojiao said, "Class monitor, I think it's okay to collect class fees, but things that are optional should not be paid out of class fees. Anyone who wants review materials can sign up with the academic representative and pay the academic representative."
