Qiao Mu had thought that she could deal with the matter easily. If she put on more pity-plays with her pleas she could have wiggled her way out yet..
But the department head was making things difficult. She said that the upper management of the university already knew about this. If she would not call her parents over, the university would.
Qiao Mu was truly scared. She was at the end of her rope, so she had no choice but to seek Li Yan for help.
Qiao Mu snuck into the Li family's mansion, but Li Yan was not at home.
The butler noticed that she was somewhat anxious, so he said, "Second Young Mistress Qiao, how about I give the young master a call. If we know when he returns, you don't have to wait in vain?"
"It's alright, Uncle Chen. I'm free anyway, so I can wait for a while longer. Don't worry about me, you can get on with your work."
