Reborn as a Superpower Girl in the 80s
Chapter 526: He certainly didn’t want to make that girl feel uncomfortable.

Chapter 526: Chapter 526: He certainly didn’t want to make that girl feel uncomfortable.

Luo Ziming said, "The information we previously gathered didn’t mention him returning to work at the Public Security Bureau. The Gu family had arranged a deputy factory director position for him at the steel plant, but now Lu Yi has returned to the Public Security Bureau to report for duty without any of us knowing in advance."

"Dad, what should we do next?"

"Find an opportunity for Cui Yueyue to take you home when nobody’s there. Do you still have that medicine?"

Luo Fangyuan replied, "I do. Okay, I’ll try to settle this before the end of the year."

While they were talking, Luo Jinwen had already packed up and snuck out of the house, stopping only when she reached a secluded spot outside the compound.

Lu Xinyi originally wanted his son to stay home for dinner, but Lu Yichen said he had already made an appointment with his grandparents and couldn’t break it.

No matter the reason, his son had completely distanced himself from him. But back then, had he not sent him away, he feared things would have gotten out of control, rendering all his previous arrangements futile.

Fortunately, there was now some light at the end of the tunnel. Now that his second son’s leg had healed, he suspected that the person behind the scenes wouldn’t be able to sit still. Hence, this time he had explained everything clearly to his second son, hoping he could understand.

By the time Lu Yichen left the compound, it was already late. He planned to head to the bus stop ahead to return to his grandfather’s place, not expecting Luo Jinwen to suddenly appear before him.

Seeing Lu Yichen, now even more tall and handsome, Luo Jinwen’s eyes reddened instantly, "Yichen, you’re back?"

Upon seeing her, Lu Yichen’s expression darkened, "Is there something you need?"

With an infatuated look, Luo Jinwen said to Lu Yichen, "Yichen, I have so much I want to say to you."

Remembering what Luo Qiao had told him earlier, Lu Yichen certainly did not want to get involved in any rumors with this woman, so he stepped back to create distance between them: "Just say what you have to, I need to catch the bus."

Luo Jinwen, seeing the impatience on Lu Yichen’s face, said, "Yichen, I had my reasons for what happened before, please forgive me."

Without a second thought, Lu Yichen replied, "If it’s about the past, then there’s no need to talk about it. We never really had anything between us, so there’s no question of forgiveness. I have to go now."

Luo Jinwen panicked and tried to grab Lu Yichen’s sleeve, but missed. Perhaps using too much force, she stumbled and fell to the ground.

But Lu Yichen didn’t even glance at her and continued walking towards the bus stop.

Luo Jinwen, not expecting Lu Yichen to be so heartless, slowly got up from the ground and started crying, hugging her knees.

Lu Yichen certainly did not want to provoke Luo Jinwen and stir up gossip, especially something that could later reach Luo Qiao’s ears, as he didn’t want to make her feel uneasy."

Soon it was the end-of-term exam period. Luo Qiao arrived at school early, and Xiao Ya excitedly pulled her aside and whispered, "Luo Qiao, thank you. With the materials you’ve organized for me this term, I feel like I’ve improved a lot. I hope I can get good grades this time."

Luo Qiao smiled, "What’s there to thank, aren’t we friends? Don’t worry, next term I’ll help you organize some more. As long as you work hard enough, achieving your dreams shouldn’t be a problem."

Hearing their conversation, the transfer student sneered and said, "You talk as if you’re better than the teachers, as if just messing with some materials could lead to good grades. Why don’t you aim for the sky, bragger!"

Luo Qiao found the girl quite interesting. They had no interaction, yet she would chime in with a comment now and then—it seemed her brain really did have an issue. But Luo Qiao was just there to take the exams and didn’t want to cause trouble that could put Teacher Ge in a difficult position.

Xiao Ya looked up at the student and said, "You really are a troublemaker. My conversation with Luo Qiao is none of your business. Do you live beside the Yellow River and feel the need to oversee everything so broadly?"

Laughter erupted from nearby students at this, causing the transfer student’s face to turn bright red. Knowing she was in the wrong and fearing to escalate the situation any further—since the school and teachers would likely side with Luo Qiao—she pretended nothing had happened and kept her head down, staying silent.

Luo Qiao gave Xiao Ya a thumbs-up, to which Xiao Ya replied, "Some people just need to be put in their place; they’re out looking for trouble when there’s none to be found."
