70: Chapter 70 A Brilliant Plan
Lin Wanwan was introverted, even a little timid, but very kind.
A month ago, she stumbled upon a girl being bullied at school.
She gathered her courage to step forward and stop it, but was threatened and warned by those people.
Later, that girl expressed her gratitude and became friends with her.
Unexpectedly, just last night, a group of people blocked the path she had to take to return to her dormitory.
She went to help her teacher organize materials every Friday, a fact only those close to her knew.
Recalling everything that had happened recently, she realized immediately that it was the girl she had saved who had betrayed her.
The group of bullies kicked and punched her, and even filmed a video.
They threatened that if she dared to tell anyone, they would embellish the video and post it publicly online.
Worried that this matter would affect The Lin Family, she had no choice but to endure it.
After hearing Lin Wanwan's account, The Lin Family was furious!
"This is outrageous, absolutely outrageous!"
Lin Qingshan slammed the table with a loud "bang, bang."
Su Xiumei gently pulled up Lin Wanwan's sleeve, and seeing the bruises on her body, she felt incredibly pained. "Wanwan, you should have told us about something like this. We would have protected you!"
Since coming to The Lin Family, Lin Wanwan had always been very obedient and well-behaved.
This overly sensible demeanor, however, only highlighted her sense of alienation.
In her heart, even if she was close to The Lin Family, she was not truly a member of The Lin Family.
She worried that she would be abandoned and end up homeless once again.
The Lin Family naturally saw through Lin Wanwan's thoughts, which only made them feel even more heartache.
"Wanwan, do you remember what those people looked like?"
Lin Chuge asked with a cold face.
"They were wearing masks; I didn't see their faces."
Lin Wanwan bit her lip and shook her head silently.
Lin Chuge frowned slightly.
Given those people's methods, they must have avoided surveillance at the time. It seemed this matter was more troublesome than she had imagined.
Seeing Lin Chuge's grave expression, Lin Wanwan's tears fell again.
"Mom, Dad, Sister, I can handle this myself. Really, you don't need to worry!"
After saying this, she ran upstairs crying and quickly returned to her room.
In the living room, the atmosphere was heavy.
Lin Qingshan's fingers clenched until they creaked.
Su Xiumei looked at her phone, wanting to call the school leadership to hold them accountable time and again.
Lin Chuge was pondering a solution.
Lin Baixuan, who had been silent, suddenly spoke up, "We don't have evidence for this. If we go directly to the school leadership, they will either shirk responsibility or suggest that Wanwan transfer schools. It won't truly solve the problem."
"That's right. The trauma in Wanwan's heart is far greater than her physical injuries. Avoiding the problem certainly won't solve it."
Lin Chuge also agreed with Lin Baixuan's assessment.
Su Xiumei had also realized this, which was why she hadn't called them for so long.
She silently put down her phone, her eyes full of sadness. "It's all our fault for not protecting her well."
Lin Qingshan gently put his arm around Su Xiumei's shoulder and comforted her softly, "There is still a chance to make amends."
Lin Chuge also consoled her, "That's right, Mom. I will investigate privately and will definitely find those people!"
"Actually, there is a simpler way."
Lin Baixuan stroked her chin, a smile curling the corners of her mouth. "I suspect those people won't just let it go. As long as someone infiltrates the school and stays with Wanwan..."
The other three's eyes lit up instantly.
This was indeed a good plan!
"Wait a minute, who would go? The fourth and fifth sisters aren't here, and as for the two of us... we don't look like students, do we?"
Lin Chuge was suddenly troubled again.
Lin Baixuan gave a mischievous smile, "Doesn't our family still have one university student?"
"Huh?"
The three of them seemed to realize something, their faces full of astonishment.
But they reacted quickly.
"What a great idea!"
...
When Lin Xiao returned carrying a small cake, what he saw were four people eyeing him like predators.
"What are you all..."
Lin Xiao vaguely sensed something amiss, but it was already too late.
Lin Chuge and Lin Baixuan pinned him onto the sofa, stripped off his outer jacket, and put the large-sized school uniform they had just prepared on him.
Immediately after, they applied various cosmetics to his face and finally put a wig on him!
"Perfect!"
Lin Chuge and Lin Baixuan were very satisfied looking at their "work."
Even Lin Qingshan and Su Xiumei nodded repeatedly from the side.
"Not bad, not bad. Who would have thought that our A-Xiao would be so pretty with just a little bit of styling!"
"..."
It wasn't until Lin Xiao stood in front of the mirror that he recovered from his daze.
He had never imagined that he could look like this.
His face was actually not bad. Under the cover of their makeup techniques, his originally sharp-featured face had been made to look somewhat soft.
It was just that his figure was still a bit lacking...
A chest as flat as an airport, looking like it was underdeveloped.
But it didn't matter; he was tall anyway.
Standing there, he had the feeling of an international supermodel.
"Wait a minute! You dressed me up like this, what are you trying to do?"
Lin Xiao finally realized something was wrong, his face full of astonishment.
Lin Chuge walked over to his side and patted his shoulder casually, "We have already contacted the Girls School. Next Monday, you will accompany Wanwan. You will be in the same class and the same dormitory."
"..."
Lin Xiao looked at everyone in horror.
Seeing that they had absolutely no intention of joking, he realized that they weren't just trying to prank him—they were actually serious!
Especially Lin Qingshan and Su Xiumei.
How could the usually dignified and steady couple agree to such a thing!
"A-Xiao, you don't want Wanwan to be bullied again, do you?"
Su Xiumei looked at Lin Xiao with an expectant face.
"I, yes, but, but..."
Lin Xiao struggled for a long time but couldn't think of any better solution.
Perhaps because of the distance, that gossip system also hadn't told him who the bullies were.
It seemed he would only be able to find out if he really infiltrated the school.
"Don't worry, we have already asked for leave for you at your school. You will go to the Girls School first this week. I believe those people won't stay quiet for too long."
Lin Chuge then casually took out a bracelet and put it on Lin Xiao's wrist.
With this embellishment, he looked even more like a girl.
