Rebirth 1983: Building My Business Empire
Chapter 408 - Chapter 408 397

Chapter 408: 397 Chapter 408: 397 Lu Jiaxin saw Second Sister-in-law Lu still cursing and smiled as she said, “Second sister-in-law, it’s okay, I won’t have anything to do with that family anymore. As for those two job positions, temporary workers certainly won’t last long, and the construction company’s permanent position, that’s heavy labor entirely dependent on whether he can bear the hardship.”

Now that jobs are so scarce, the positions that the Ding Family secured must have pushed others out. The people who got pushed out won’t take it lying down, they will surely make trouble.

Second Sister-in-law Lu felt somewhat better and stopped cursing, “Jiaxin, Gou Sheng has recovered from his illness, let Shanzi follow you to Hong Kong!”

Lu Jiaxin nodded and said, “I’ve already arranged for Shanzi’s papers to go to Hong Kong, he can just come with me when the time comes.”

Hearing this, Second Sister-in-law Lu was reassured.

Lu Jiaxin thought of Xiao Qiu’s matter and asked, “How’s Xiao Qiu’s situation with that male teacher, they haven’t been in contact again, have they?”

Second Sister-in-law Lu said, “I did as you suggested and told that guy, if he really likes Xiao Qiu he should have her parents invite a matchmaker to propose. But that bastard kept making excuses, and when Xiao Qiu found out, she went to the school to confront him, only then did she learn that he was already taken.”

Already taken but still leading Xiao Qiu on, his character and morals are questionable.

Second Sister-in-law Lu sighed and said, “After Xiao Qiu came back, she cried the entire night, yet the next day she went back to work at the store as usual. I’m afraid to even bring up the matter because I don’t want her to be heartbroken.”

Lu Jiaxin found it hard to believe and said, “Second sister-in-law, you’re just going to let go of that scumbag so easily? That doesn’t sound like you!”

Second Sister-in-law Lu was out of options. Xiao Qiu was still a young lady, and making a fuss about it could impact her reputation, leaving them no choice but to swallow this bitter pill in silence.

“Then you could have written an anonymous letter to report them, right?”

Second Sister-in-law Lu gave a bitter smile and said, “We did, we wrote three letters! But they all ended up going nowhere. We can’t go there directly, otherwise, people will blame Xiao Qiu for being indecent. The incident has already hit her hard, gossip would be too much for her to handle.”

Poor are the hearts of parents worldwide, even someone as fierce as the second sister-in-law has to retract her spikes for the sake of her children.

Lu Jiaxin said, “Second sister-in-law, you should have told me about this sooner.

Not knowing is one thing, but now that I do, there’s no way I can let this man go. Moreover, such a scumbag is a high school teacher, who knows what he might do in the future. Living in an information explosion era, I understand some people have no limits in their actions.”

Second Sister-in-law Lu shook her head and said, “I didn’t intentionally keep it from you; I was worried you would go and persuade Xiao Qiu. She hasn’t come out of it yet, and being reminded of it would only make her more upset.”

Lu Jiaxin had wanted to talk to Xiao Qiu but immediately gave up on hearing this. Such matters require one to come to terms with them themselves, no amount of talking from someone else will help.

After Second Sister-in-law Lu left, Lu Jiaxin discussed the issue with Gu Wenfeng, “Go check out that man. I don’t believe he’s only deceived Xiao Qiu.”

Xiao Qiu’s interactions with that man were brief, and the two hadn’t even confirmed their relationship. Not to mention outsiders, even family members had no clue about it. However, Second Sister-in-law Lu didn’t want the matter to spread and affect Xiao Qiu’s reputation, she had to find another way.

Gu Wenfeng was both shocked and angry, “Boss, the other party is a high school teacher?”

Seeing his angry expression, Lu Jiaxin said gloomily, “Such things are quite common, it’s just that you don’t hear about them much.”

A teacher without morals is very dangerous. Gu Wenfeng said, “Don’t worry, boss, such scum absolutely cannot remain in the teaching profession.”

If Xiao Qiu hadn’t started working early, at her age she would be in high school right now. Therefore, it was very dangerous for such a person to continue to be in school.

Gu Wenfeng moved quickly, by the next afternoon, he informed Lu Jiaxin that the scumbag had been expelled from school.

Lu Jiaxin was surprised at his speed, “Why so fast?”

Gu Wenfeng’s face showed loathing, “Apart from Xiao Qiu, he harassed two other girls at the night school. One rejected him, but the other was deceived into dating him. Last night, my men caught him red-handed while he was on a date with that girl.”

He sighed, “When they were caught, the girl claimed they were in a relationship. She didn’t believe it even after learning that the scoundrel had a partner and was planning to marry.”

Lu Jiaxin asked tactfully, “The girl wasn’t harmed, right?”

Gu Wenfeng understood her implication, “No. They haven’t been dating long, just holding hands, nothing more.”

The main point was their relationship was short-lived. But if it hadn’t been for Lu Jiaxin’s intervention, that man would have eventually taken advantage of the girl’s naivety.

“That’s a relief, otherwise the girl’s life would’ve been ruined,” said Lu Jiaxin. Nowadays, with conservative mores prevailing, if a girl was compromised, there was a high chance she would be rejected by her future spouse. If men despise you, you can hardly expect to lead a good life.

Lu Jiaxin felt that the scoundrel shouldn’t get off easily, “His crimes must be made public so that other girls don’t fall victim to his deceit.”

Gu Wenfeng nodded.

In the evening, Lu Jiaxin phoned the Second Sister-in-law Lu and shared the news, “Simply being dismissed from his job isn’t enough, I want him to be utterly disgraced.”

Upon hearing this, Second Sister-in-law Lu choked up, “Jiaxin, thank you.”

Her daughter had become withdrawn and quiet since being deceived, which pained her deeply, and she loathed that bastard even more. But for her daughter’s reputation, she couldn’t bring herself to confront him, which was incredibly frustrating. Now, Jiaxin had avenged them beautifully.

Lu Jiaxin said, “Second Sister-in-law, we’re family. When Xiao Qiu is bullied, as her aunt I will naturally stand up for her. Don’t shy away from discussing it with her, hoping to avoid upsetting her. Tell her about this, so she learns from it and avoids getting deceived in the future.”

“Let me think about it.”

After hesitating for a while, she eventually went to Xiao Qiu’s room and relayed what Lu Jiaxin had said, “Xiao Qiu, that man is a beast, not worth your tears.”

Half an hour later, Lu Jiaxin saw the haggard Xiao Qiu, “Have you come to terms with it?”

She had been worried before, as Xiao Qiu was in the flower of youth and surely many men liked her. If she met someone good, her marital worries would be over; but if she met someone with ulterior motives, she would be in danger. It was bad luck this girl met a scoundrel, though luckily, she was only deceived emotionally and not cheated out of money or defrauded physically.

With puffy eyes, Xiao Qiu said, “Auntie, thank you. If it weren’t for you, I would still think I was just a step too late and wouldn’t have known he was such a brute.”

She had thought it was a case of being fated but not destined, yet he was a scoundrel who had deceived one after another.

Lu Jiaxin’s mouth twitched, God’s late step, these scumbags all following the same script. She consoled, “This is just a small bump in your life’s journey, you’ll get over it. But if you despair, you only make your parents worry.”

Xiao Qiu apologized to Second Sister-in-law Lu with great remorse.

Lu Jiaxin said, “In the future, when you date someone you like, you must bring him home to meet your parents. They meet a lot of people through their business and can discern the good from the bad.”

“Okay.”
