Chapter 16 Chapter fifteen

Mrs. Leaver was the only one who felt that Edward Yadi had invaded the school.As the leader of the campus drama, Mrs. Leif took it for granted that she should play a more important role in this visit.She let Miss Luc know: first, Kailin Luc has no right to know Edward before her.Yadi; second, since you know him, you have no right to monopolize this person.Mrs. Rever was somewhat relieved that on Fridays she would have the opportunity to see Edward Adidas with her own eyes, and to talk to him in the dramatic language he supposedly knew.Mrs. Leaver made it clear to everyone that Edward Yadi must have been at a loss among the uncivilized savages of the Reich Sports Academy.

At lunch on Thursday, Lucy listened to Mrs. Rev's vitriol and wished she hadn't gone too far with Edward Yatti's plans for dinner; Staring at her all night, her anticipation vanished.Maybe Miss Luc can stop it in time.Mademoiselle Luc was not used to tolerating things she did not approve of. Still thinking about Mrs. Leif, Miss Luc and tomorrow night, Lucy inadvertently turned her eyes to the students, and then saw Innes' face, her heartbeat stopped suddenly. It's only been three days since she saw Innes last time, how could such a young girl's face have changed in just three days? She widened her eyes, trying to figure out where these changes came from place.Of course Innes had lost weight and was very pale, but that was not the problem.Not because of the dark circles under her eyes, or her thinned cheeks, or even her expression, which is calmly eating from her plate.However, her face surprised Lucy.She wondered if anyone else had noticed, and why no one had mentioned it.The expression on Innes' face, as subtle and easy to see as the Mona Lisa's expression, is too obvious to ignore.

It turned out that this was "deeply wounded in the heart", she thought of what Bao'er said, "deeply wounded in the heart, it is very bad for people".It's really not good, look at what that face has become.How could it be possible to have a calm and subtle expression on her face at the same time? How could she maintain such a calm expression when her internal organs were being eaten away? Her eyes turned to Bao'er who was sitting at the head of another table, who was anxiously Look at Innes. "Should you send an invitation letter to Mr. Yadi?" Miss He Ju asked Miss Lu Ke.

"No." Miss Luke was quite impatient when the topic revolved around Edward Yadi. "You have already told Miss Jolie that you need to add an extra serving to the afternoon tea?" "He won't eat at tea, so I don't have to worry about it." Gosh, Lucy wants to tell everyone, stop talking about trivial things and look at Innes.What the hell happened to her? Look at this girl who was glamorous last week.look at her.Does she remind you of anything? This beautiful girl sits quietly, but her heart is endlessly blank.What does she remind you of? Is it the brilliant drops of water formed in the woods? Crushing into the soil at the touch, because they are so fragile and empty.

"Innes doesn't look very well." She stated her opinion carefully as they went upstairs with Miss Luc. "She looks terrible," said Mademoiselle Luke bluntly. "Does that seem strange to you?" "Is there anything anyone can do?" Lucy asked. "Find her a job that she deserves." Miss Luke replied dryly, "Since there are no ready-made job opportunities, it's useless." "You mean she has to start seeing ads for jobs?" "That's right. There are only two weeks left until the end of the semester, and it seems that Miss He Ju has no other opportunities to distribute. Almost all the jobs that started in September have found good people now. It's ridiculous, isn't it?" Is it? The most outstanding student of this school over the years has fallen to the point where he has written his resume and failed in a hundred tests."

Abominable, thought Lucy, abominable thing about it.Lucy thought about tomorrow's grand event, many parents would come to visit their outstanding daughters, to see the campus where they spent years of winter and summer, and to accept their achievements.What will Innes think? Will she look forward to welcoming her loving parents to testify to her training and to present her achievements in working in Alinga? It's a bad thing, but at least it can be remedied.What can't be saved is the injustice of the whole thing.Lucy found injustice more intolerable than other crimes. She still remembers feeling hurt, helpless and angry when she was treated unfairly as a child.

Helpless anger is the worst, it eats away like a slow fire.Because there is nothing to do, this destructive emotion is completely unable to vent.Lucy felt that when she was young, like Innes, she lacked a sense of humor. But when can young people face their pain correctly? Of course not.A forty-year-old would not hang himself for a word of ignorance from others. This is an act only a fourteen-year-old boy would have. Lucy thought she understood the anger, disappointment, and resentment that was gnawing at Innes.Innes concealed her shock with an outward dignity.This is completely different from street singing girls who only know how to make people cry and hold on to a copper coin.

Innes would never behave like this.She may lack a sense of humor, and may be defenseless to the outside world as Boa said, but she feels pain for what happened to her, which is a kind of she doesn't want to be exposed to others-especially to this group of "just" The rest of them" - emotions. Lucy couldn't think of words to express her sympathy. The traditional ways of expressing friendship, such as gifts of flowers or sweets, really didn't work, and she couldn't find any other alternatives.She was deeply aware of the troubles of Innes who was next door, so she began to hate that she could not help, but this idea gradually merged into the night.She thought of the past few days, hearing Innes enter the room after the bedtime bell, and the small voice from the next door let her know the girl's existence.Before going to sleep, Lucy was also troubled by Innes.However, the colorful life during the day made me forget her.

Ruth did not have a Saturday night celebration, and no one knew whether this was due to her sensitivity to the school's perception of the matter or to her natural penchant for frugality.No one mentioned the celebration that was supposed to be held together for Innes, and Ruth obviously didn't expect everyone to celebrate for her. Although Lucy did not participate in the chatter and excitement of the students, she found something strange: the entire school was silent about the assignment of the Allingo job.Even young Miss Morris made no comment when the breakfast tray was brought to her each morning.In this matter, Lucy was part of the faculty, an outsider to the students, and perhaps should share the responsibility.She really didn't like the idea.

What she couldn't bear the most, and what she couldn't help but think about was that Innes would face her own nothing tomorrow. She has trained so hard for so many years just for tomorrow, and the expected tomorrow should be full of cheers of victory.Lucy wished he could find her a job right now, so that weary woman with shining eyes could see her daughter returning home with a rewarding experience. However, the job of a physical education teacher is not something that can be called at any time, and Innes cannot be randomly assigned an inappropriate position. It is not enough to have a good heart.Lucy has, but only this kindness.

Then, she should make good use of this kindness and see what she can do.She followed Handa into her office as the others went upstairs and said, "Henda, can we create a job offer for Innes? It's not right that she wasn't assigned any work." "Miss Innes can't be without a job for a long time, and besides, I don't see any point in giving her a fake job." "I don't mean fake, I mean create, manufacture. There must be dozens of job opportunities all over the country. Can't we combine these opportunities with Innes so that she doesn't have to suffer the pain of being recruited?" Handa , Do you remember what this kind of waiting is like? Those carefully written application letters and recommendation letters are like disappearing into the sea and never returning.” "I offered Miss Innes an opportunity long ago, but she declined. I really don't know what else to do now. I really don't have any other vacancies on hand." "No, but can you contact the job advertisement in the newspaper for her?" "I'm going to contact? That's too strange, and it's unnecessary. She will naturally leave my name for reference when she applies for a job. If she is not worthy of recommendation—" "But you can always—oh, you can ask for a better job for your brilliant student—" "Lucy, you are making trouble for no reason." "I know, but I want to see that Innes is under special care before five o'clock this afternoon." Miss He Ju, obviously had never read Kipling's book—or didn't know the existence of this writer at all—and stared wide-eyed. "For a woman author who has written a book worthy of study - and Professor Bittock praised it at the University Tea just yesterday - you obviously have a supernatural impulse and a stupid mind." A defeated Lucy is well aware of the limits of her intelligence.Lucy, who was stabbed, looked at the huge back of Handa standing in front of the window. "I'm afraid," said Handa, "that the weather is about to turn bad. The morning forecast confirmed it. After such a long period of good weather, it really needs to change. It would be unfortunate if it happened to change tomorrow. "Misfortune! My God, you ugly, stupid woman, you are definitely the one with the stupid mind. I may not have first-rate intelligence, I may have childish impulses, but I am aware of unfortunate events, and I know very well that it has nothing to do with It doesn't matter that people duck in the rain for fear of getting their clothes wet, or salvaging a soggy sandwich. No, absolutely nothing. "Yes, Handa, that would be a pity." After she finished speaking softly, she walked out of the office and went upstairs. She stood at the stairwell window, watching the dark clouds gather in the sky, wishing evilly that tomorrow there would be a Niagara-style rain that would drench everyone and make Lai's Academy look like a laundry room.But Li Feng found this wish disgusting, and hastily corrected it.Tomorrow is their big day, God bless you all, for this day, they practice sweat, bruises and scabs, hurt, stretch, anticipation, they live for this day. On such a day, they should have sunshine to help them out. Besides, she was sure that Mrs. Innes had only a "respectable" pair of walking shoes.
