Chapter 97: Chapter 098: I’m Afraid (2)
Hearing the policeman’s words, Lou Xi quickly stood up, pushed the dining table to the door, and firmly braced it against the door.
She thought that even if the person outside pried the door open, she could temporarily use the table to block the door while waiting for the police to arrive.
She shook her head.

"Do you have any relatives or friends? If you don’t want to come to the station, you could stay with a friend for the night. It’s really not safe for a girl to live here alone."
"Student, why are you living here alone? You look like a junior, shouldn’t you be staying at the school?"
Holding the phone, she anxiously asked the policeman on the line, "Officer, have your people arrived? I’m too scared to open the door..."
The two policewomen brought Lou Xi in, asking about the situation, while the policeman and property staff inspected the anti-theft lock and code lock outside the apartment and found signs of tampering.
The noises outside seemed to have stopped, but she didn’t know if the intruder had left, so she kept the table pressed against the door.
The ten minutes felt as long as an eternity to Lou Xi.
With the officer’s assurance, Lou Xi got down from the table, moved the heavy table aside, and opened the apartment door.
The policewoman looked at Lou Xi sympathetically, thinking she must have had a conflict with her dorm mates, leading her to stay outside, only for such an incident to occur.
Lou Xi nodded, still immersed in the fear of almost being taken away by the intruder.
Later, Lou Xi, carrying her valuables, went with the policewoman to the station, where she could only stay temporarily tonight.
But earlier, when she called him, he didn’t answer, and he hadn’t replied to her messages either.
"Wah... I was afraid that if you didn’t come, I... I would be taken by the intruder..."
No girl who encounters such a situation can stay calm.
"We are the police, please open the door so we can make sure you’re safe!"
Friends...
The counselor frowned, showing a helpless expression, "You don’t know this student, her private life is quite chaotic. Our school has outstanding students of both character and academics, we’re just afraid they’ll be led astray."
Lou Xi sat on the table and looked outside through the peephole, seeing indeed three officers, two women and one man, standing there.
But she didn’t dare stay here alone, unsure of what might happen.
"...I don’t dare live here anymore..." Lou Xi said, tears falling again.
When the counselor arrived, she first gave Lou Xi a disapproving look, as if dealing with this at night, with work the next day, didn’t deserve a rest.
But she was still afraid, scared they were disguised intruders.
"Knock, knock, knock—"
"Teacher, your student was frightened. Living outside isn’t a good situation; please find her a dorm at the school."
Lou Xi nodded, then shook her head.
Seeing the policemen and women in uniform, Lou Xi burst into tears. .
Does Young Master Qin count?
"Yes, our officers are outside your door, don’t be afraid, open the door."
The knocking resumed, and Lou Xi, her nerves already frayed, nearly collapsed upon hearing it.
"How about you come with us to the station tonight, and tomorrow we’ll contact your school so you can return to stay there?"
The incident at the school earlier made her feel uncomfortable about going back to live there.
"Okay..."
Soon, they contacted Lou Xi’s counselor, as she had no parents or relatives nearby, and could only notify the school.
One of the policewomen immediately stepped forward to hug Lou Xi, comforting her, "It’s alright now, we’re here, aren’t we?"
Lou Xi looked at the counselor in astonishment. Was this really how a teacher should behave, turning facts upside down?
