Rebirth in Famine: She Thrives by Lucky Space

Both of them didn’t know what to say. The three of them lowered their heads, eating in silence.

No matter how hot it got, Jiang Xinyu didn’t dare to turn on the fan, afraid of catching a cold and affecting the baby.

In a week, it would be time to go to school to check the results. She hoped her political review would pass.

Qian Jun came into Jiang Xinyu’s office, ”Jiang Xinyu, are you pregnant?”

Hearing Qian Jun’s words, tears streamed down Jiang Xinyu’s face.

”Let’s go, let’s head to your place.”

Jiang Xinyu sensed the suppressed anger in his voice.

Qian Jun grabbed his car keys, and neither of them said a word on the way.

The two sat in silence, facing each other.

”What exactly is going on?” Qian Jun finally managed to speak after a long internal struggle.

Jiang Xinyu just sat there with her head down, unable to say a word.

”Jiang Xinyu, I didn’t know you had a close male friend. Judging by your appearance, it seems something happened during your vacation, right?”

Jiang Xinyu still didn’t speak, but the tears kept flowing.

Qian Jun felt distressed looking at her like this.

”Let me ask you this, does that man know you’re pregnant?”

Still no response.

”Jiang Xinyu, was this consensual?”

No response yet again.

”So you’re not going to say anything? But you must know, this is something you can’t hide. Have you thought about the baby’s future?”

Qian Jun saw that Jiang Xinyu was crying even more.

”Show your usual demeanor, think about what to do next?

Jiang Xinyu, you can be honest with me, I’ll try to find a way.”

”Mr. Qian, I won’t say anything, this is something I will never forget in my life.

As for the future? Just let things take their course.”

”Jiang Xinyu, have you mentally prepared yourself? Don’t you know how fearsome public opinion can be?”

”I know, I know everything. But what can I do?

I will definitely keep this baby, no matter what, I love him.”

”But you’re only eighteen, how will you manage your life afterward? Can you find that man?”

Jiang Xinyu’s tears flowed even more fiercely.

”So you’re planning to care for the baby alone?”

”Yes, I will take care of him. He is mine.”

”Do you plan on being alone with the child for the rest of your life?”

”Why not? Even if I lose my job, I can still support him.”

Qian Jun took several deep breaths, holding back his rage.

”Why are you still so naive? The child will also face disdain from others.”

”Then I’ll leave this place, go somewhere where no one knows me, and I’ll say I am divorced, raising the child alone.”

”What about the child’s registration?”

”I’ll think of a way. It will be solved one way or another.”

”Do you like that man? Is that why you’re protecting him like this?”

Jiang Xinyu shook her head. She liked Wei Kaiyun, but now she resented him. Even if she wanted to protect him, she couldn’t find him.

”With your grades, you’ll soon face a political review. What will you do?”

She still kept her head down, not speaking, and Qian Jun took several more deep breaths to suppress his anger.

”Jiang Xinyu, tell me, do you want to go to college?”

Jiang Xinyu nodded, ”I want to study, choose a school far away, where no one knows me. It will minimize harm to the child.”

”Haven’t you considered finding a man to marry quickly?”

”I don’t want to!” Jiang Xinyu’s tone was firm and resolute.

”Then go find that man.”

Jiang Xinyu shook her head, her eyes blurred with tears.

Seeing her expression, Qian Jun guessed Jiang Xinyu might have been forced. Perhaps she didn’t want to bring up that painful past?

”Jiang Xinyu, take a leave until the political review is over. I’ll make arrangements for you. If that doesn’t work, there’s nothing we can do. Which university did you choose?”

Jiang Xinyu said, once again.

”Then Northwest Polytechnic University it is, it’s the farthest away.”

”Yes, thank you, Mr. Qian.”

”No need, don’t take leave. I’ll just say I sent you to Shandong for cotton procurement. As for the results, I’ll check for you, and fill in the volunteer form on your behalf.

Just stay home obediently. I’ll visit you every day, tell me if you need anything. Once the admission notice comes, just go straight to school.”

Jiang Xinyu felt quite touched. No matter what, Qian Jun had always been good to her.

”Alright.”

”What would you like to eat? I’ll make it for you.”

”No need, I don’t have an appetite, maybe later when I get hungry.”

”Fine, I’ll tell others that there’s an emergency you need to deal with.”

After speaking, Qian Jun left, locking the door behind her. Sitting in the car, the veins on his hands tensed against the steering wheel.

Now there was only one way, to send her away and wait for years to pass, for everything to fade.

After Qian Jun left, Jiang Xinyu felt less burdened. With Qian Jun’s help, she should be able to get through this.

After a bath, she comfortably lay on the kang and took a nap.

When she woke up in the afternoon, there wasn’t much to do, so she prepared the baby’s bedding and clothes.

Qian Jun returned to his office. ”Secretary Song, Director Jiang has been assigned by me to Shandong to handle some matters, make a note.”

”Yes.”

Returning to his office, even with a fan, he still felt irritable from the heat.

Picking up the phone on the desk, ”Director Zhu, this is Qian Jun.

Yes, Director Jiang’s intention is not to go for now. She took the college entrance exam a few days ago, her scores are pretty good, estimated at five hundred three.

Yes, indeed very reliable. I think even if she went there now, she wouldn’t be staying long before having to attend school, so let her position stay with us for now.

Yes, it’s a joyous occasion, definitely, at least a two hundred reward.

There’s some issue with the supplies over in Shandong, I’ve sent her to resolve it.”

He placed the phone down, his anger also subsiding. Jiang Xinyu was still young, maybe wait for a few years.

Later he located the phone number for the city high school principal’s office.

”Principal Liu, this is the textile factory manager, Qian Jun, due to some special reasons, I’ve sent Jiang Xinyu away.

Yes, I know she needs to choose her major preferences, I can handle it for her, don’t worry Principal Liu, I’ll visit the school on the twenty-eighth.

She’s interested in Northwest Polytechnic University. Yes, her affiliation has always been with the textile factory.

Good, thanks, Principal Liu, I won’t delay matters.”

Jiang Xinyu’s affairs were mostly resolved; the political review will surely come to the textile factory, and Jiang Xinyu will definitely have no issues.

Meanwhile, Tian Mingyan lay in a daze at Jia Xingzhi’s house.

Everything was over—it had to be someone sabotaging her, it must be. But who could it be?

Otherwise, why would so many people gather in her office at night? That’s definitely not normal. She also lost her deputy factory director position, but since this was a personal issue, she could still work in the workshop.
