Chapter 130 Not Telling Teacher Tu
"Tu Xiaomao?"
Tu Yao: ...
"Yes, there is..."
There are plenty.
Tu Yao scratched her head: "...I'm trying to figure out which job will get me scolded less!"
The problem is, I'll get scolded no matter who I ask!
After all, going to jail is still a very niche thing.
Tu Yao countered, "Since we can only find the same number of people, who do you think we should contact?"
Lin Yue: ...
The two stared at each other, wide-eyed.
Tu Yao was silent for a moment: "...Or else, whoever's phone rings first should confess?"
The next second, Tu Yao's phone vibrated twice.
Tu Yao: ...
Pick it up and take a look...
Lin Yue leaned closer and said in a deep voice, "...Xiao Chi."
Lin Yue's expression was blank, yet tinged with schadenfreude: "He delivered himself to my door, so you should confess."
Tu Yao: ...
A few seconds later, Tu Yao answered the phone shakily.
"……Hello."
His voice clearly betrayed a hint of guilt.
On the other end of the phone, Xu Chi stared at the screen, frowning.
He asked softly, "Have you finished your questions? Where are they?"
Tu Yao: ...
I don't know why, but Koike always manages to get right to the heart of the matter.
She whispered, "...Not yet."
The second problem was conveniently ignored.
Xu Chi's eyes turned slightly cold. He picked up the car keys beside him and walked straight out of the study.
"Where is it?"
...
Ten minutes later, Tu Yao and Lin Yue followed silently side by side behind the young man.
Tu Yao silently took the handrail, and a deliberately indifferent voice came from the front: "Come sit in the front."
Tu Yao quickly said "Oh" and scrambled onto the passenger seat.
The car didn't start moving for a long time, and Tu Yao didn't dare to move either.
Xu Chi sighed and leaned over to help her pull down the seatbelt.
Tu Yao also sighed: "Xiao Chi, don't be angry. I didn't mean it today. It's just that Lin Qiuping is too infuriating. I just couldn't hold back."
From behind, Lin Yue added, "I was a bit impulsive today; Tu Xiaomao was trying to help me."
Xu Chi rubbed his temples. "You two..."
"Teacher Tu..."
Tu Yao: "We can't let my brother know!"
Lin Yue: "We can't let my older brother know."
Before they could finish speaking, the two of them spoke in perfect unison.
Tu Yao added, "We can't let Second Brother know either."
Xu Chi: ...
Xu Chi looked at Lin Yue and said calmly, "It's because I'm afraid Teacher Tu will find out that you two got into a fight and ended up in jail."
"I'm still afraid that he'll find out you're in trouble but you're hesitant to tell him, and that it's gotten to the point where you have to mortgage the house."
"Or perhaps, both."
As soon as he finished speaking, the atmosphere in the car visibly fell silent.
Lin Yue opened his mouth, then lowered his eyes and remained silent.
On the way back to the hospital, Tu Yao looked in the rearview mirror several times.
The closer they got to the hospital, the more somber Lin Yue's expression became.
As soon as the car stopped, the familiar sound of a motorcycle suddenly came from not far away.
Tu Yao looked over upon hearing the sound and saw Lin Jing.
He took off his helmet, revealing a face covered in grime and messy, dusty hair.
A clear glint flashed in Lin Yue's eyes: "How did it go? Was it successful?"
After saying that, Lin Jing's expression changed slightly, and he turned his head away with some guilt.
"The goods have been delivered, but the protection during transit was inadequate, resulting in some damage."
"The amount received is not much."
He then asked, "How about your side? How's the house? Has it been mortgaged?"
As soon as he finished speaking, someone called out Lin Yue's name at the hospital entrance!
Tu Yao looked up and saw the man from before; he hadn't left yet.
Upon seeing Lin Yue, he hurriedly ran over!
"Oh! I've finally waited for you! Hurry up, here's the property certificate back, and you give me my money back."
He shoved the file bag into Lin Yue's hands.
"Don't blame me, we in this line of work are afraid of trouble too. If the source of the goods is unclear and there are hidden dangers, I dare not accept them."
Lin Yue said in a hoarse voice, "I'm sorry, I didn't make it clear beforehand."
The man sighed, waved his hand, and left.
Lin Jing frowned: "What's going on?"
Turning around, I saw: "Sister? You're here too?"
"What exactly happened?"
Lin Yue clutched the file folder, remained silent for a moment, then looked at Tu Yao and suddenly whispered:
"...Tu Xiaomao should also apologize to you."
"sorry."
In an instant, the boy's thin body seemed to collapse under the weight, sinking heavily to the ground.
Tu Yao's nose suddenly stung with tears.
In the original book, Lin Yue is described the same as Nan Ke.
In a short sentence, he overcame numerous hardships to become a rising star in the business world.
Although the phrase "endured all kinds of hardships" is enough to express how much suffering he endured in the early stages.
But it was only then that Tu Yao truly grasped the weight of those four words.
It could break a teenager's spirit.
Even if the original book didn't mention the butterfly effect caused by her transmigration, the difficulties Lin Yue and Lin Jing faced might have been even greater and more profound than they are now.
...Was he in a thousand times more pain back then than he is now?
Tu Yao watched Lin Yue and Lin Jing slowly walk forward.
After a long pause, she lowered her head, remained silent for a while, and then whispered:
"...Xiao Chi, don't be angry."
Xu Chi lowered his eyes. The girl in front of him exuded a sense of dejection, even down to the strands of her hair.
He sighed almost inaudibly: "Why do you think I'd be angry?"
Tu Yao: "I know you don't like idiots."
"...Neither my brother nor I were very smart today."
Tu Yao took a deep breath and looked up: "And next, although the young man isn't very smart, I might have to keep up with his slacking off for a while."
Xu Chi chuckled softly.
He shook his head.
"But I think it's not that you're not smart when you're with him, it's that he'll become smarter when he's with you."
Tu Yao was taken aback.
Xu Chi reached out and gently touched her head: "So do whatever you want to do."
"I'm on your side."
"Don't tell Teacher Tu."
