I Got Rich in Period Fiction

Qiao Qingyu reined in her chaotic thoughts and said to Li Bo, "Li Bo, you’re in a good state right now. Don’t be too anxious, graduation is still two years away. I can’t promise that you’ll be able to join the Tenghai Research Base after you graduate. Maybe by that time, you’ll have even better opportunities."

But Li Bo was very eager, and that was exactly what she had been talking about. "Qiao Qingyu, I’m not asking you to give me a definite answer, even a vague one would do. I will have to explain this to my father and that woman."

"What does it have to do with them?"

"My father said if I don’t obey, he’ll pull some strings to send me off to some remote village to work as an agricultural technician."

Qiao Qingyu fell silent. She hadn’t expected Li Bo’s father to be so ruthless, either to prevent his daughter from seeking revenge on Shao Hui or to keep her from having a brighter future.

"I’m speechless about your father. If you are doing well, he should be happy."

Li Bo let out a cold laugh. For her, she had indeed understood much overnight. Sometimes she wished she were still as naive as before, living in a beautiful world woven with lies. Wouldn’t that be nice?

To remain blissfully unaware for a lifetime would at least spare her the psychological torment.

But there was no helping it, she thought. Even if she hadn’t overheard her father’s conversation with that woman that day, they both would have found her an eyesore. Fortunately, she had already been admitted to university. If she were still in middle school, she might not even have been able to finish her studies.

Li Bo was filled with regret. She regretted not listening to Liu Hong’s advice and disregarded Qiao Qingyu’s words.
