Lu Xiaoyou watched with wide eyes as Zhu Chengshou and Yuan Lan dropped Zhu Ti off at Jinghua University for registration.
After waiting for three months, she asked Yuan Lan about her school.
Yuan Lan said it was too late, that all the schools were full. They had already spent tens of thousands to try to find her a backdoor admission.
Yuan Lan had Lu Xiaoyou go out to work, suggesting she retake her final school year and take the college entrance exam again the next year.
At the age of 19, Lu Xiaoyou sat for the college entrance exam a second time. Zhu Ti had slipped her a sleeping pill, and she slept through to the afternoon, missing an entire day of tests.
Later on, when Zhu Chengshou's company went into debt, she was sold to the Secret Garden.
Long Xiliang didn't speak a word. He was waiting for Lu Xiaoyou to ask for his help, confident that if she wanted to expose the score switch from two years ago, he could help her turn the education department upside down.
