In her previous life, Fang Qing's parents passed away one after another, and she herself tragically died in a dark, sunless mental hospital.
Upon opening her eyes again, she unexpectedly ...
Chapter 50 Girls' Friendship
Chapter 51 Girls' Friendship
"Tsk tsk, I didn't realize you actually like reading. I thought someone like you would prefer dressing up."
Fang Qing looked at the book in his hand seriously, ignoring her sarcasm. "If you are bored, go to bed first. There are no mosquitoes in the room, so you can rest assured."
Tang Xiaoyu also found a book and sat down. She didn't want to leave. She wanted to observe this woman and find out what was so great about her that the Wen brothers and sisters would protect her so much.
Time passed bit by bit. Fang Qing rubbed his numb neck and was about to get up and go back to rest, but he found that Tang Xiaoyu had fallen asleep on the sofa with a book in her arms.
Fang Qing had no choice but to wake up the drooling person. Tang Xiaoyu was a little irritated at first, but after a while she realized that she was in someone else's house. She sat up with a bright face and followed Fang Qing back to the bedroom.
Because Tang Xiaoyu came to visit suddenly, the Fang family didn't have a separate guest room, so they could only temporarily widen Fang Qing's small window, lay wooden boards and bedding on it, and let the two little girls stay there for the night.
Lying on the soft bedding, Tang Xiaoyu suddenly felt very at ease. But then she thought that this was Fang Qing's home, and she felt a little envious. She wanted to say something to Fang Qing, but she heard a slight breathing sound coming from beside her.
"He's really carefree. He fell asleep so quickly..." Thinking about today's interactions with Fang Qing, Tang Xiaoyu's original perception of her began to waver. Perhaps this Fang Qing was different from what she had imagined.
The next morning, Fang Qing got up and went out for a run. Tang Xiaoyu had a good night's sleep and woke up early, so she followed Fang Qing out. On the way, she thought of her brother Ning again, and Tang Xiaoyu finally said it out.
"Fang Qing, I'm telling you clearly, Brother Ning is mine. Don't even think about snatching him away. He won't like you!"
Fang Qing looked at Tang Xiaoyu, who was standing with her hands on her hips and glaring at her, and was a little confused. "Ah, I know." Of course she knew that Wen Ning would not like her, because he liked men.
Seeing Fang Qing couldn't help laughing, Tang Xiaoyu got angry, "What are you laughing at? Are my words funny? Be serious, I am serious."
Fang Qing nodded quickly, "Okay, I understand what you said. Don't worry, I will never have any improper thoughts about your brother Ning. I am very optimistic about you, you have to work hard." I will try my best to guide your brother Ning back to the right path.
Hearing Fang Qing say this, Tang Xiaoyu was even more confused. How could this be different from what she thought?
"You, don't you have anything to say? You're not angry at all?"
Fang Qing was stunned. "Why should I be angry? We are just good friends."
Tang Xiaoyu didn't understand, "Brother Ning, this is so beautiful, how could you not like it?"
Fang Qing tilted his head and thought about Wen Ning's infuriating face, then nodded, "I like him. Anyone who sees such a good-looking person would like him, right? But between us, it's just appreciation between friends, not the kind of love you think.
And to be honest, I have never thought about these things. After all, for me, working hard to get into college and then realize my dreams are more important. Everything else is too far away. As for future partners, shouldn’t parents choose first? "
"Are you serious?"
"Of course it's true, why would I lie to you?"
Tang Xiaoyu looked at Fang Qing carefully as if she were looking at an antique. "Tsk tsk, I never thought that under such a charming face, you actually have such a traditional heart. You really have such a wasted face..."
Fang Qing sighed, "Not everyone is like you, born into a happy family with no worries about food and clothing. I have to consider my family first, and then myself."
After what happened last night, the two of them opened their hearts to each other again, and Tang Xiaoyu was no longer as wary as before.
She sat down dejectedly on a stone bench next to Fang Qing in the park. "Who said I had a happy family? My mother left when I was born, my father worked every day and had no time to take care of me, my grandparents disliked me because I was a girl, and they didn't like me either. Only Brother Ning was always nice to me. So, I swore since I was a child that I would marry him when I grew up. I actually envy you more, at least your parents are still here and they love you so much..."
The two sat together and talked. Fang Qing realized why she was overly dependent on Wen Ning, and Tang Xiaoyu also discovered Fang Qing's strengths. Unknowingly, the two of them had eliminated the grudges between each other.
Fang Qing felt bad seeing her lonely look. Tang Xiaoyu just wanted to be loved. Although she had a bad temper, she was straightforward, dared to love and hate, and was a very lovely girl.
Thinking of Tang Xiaoyu's dance exam next month, Fang Qing suddenly asked her, "Have you prepared your costume for next month's exam?"
Tang Xiaoyu nodded. "It's all ready. My teacher prepared it for me. It's the same as in previous years. I'll just wear it."
Fang Qing looked at Tang Xiaoyu with some emotion in her heart. Who could have thought that she would meet the future dancer one day? Meeting is fate. Although they didn't have a good impression of each other before, now they have untied the knot. Besides, it's not certain whether they can meet again in the future, so why not leave a good memory for each other?
Afterwards, Fang Qing took Tang Xiaoyu into his study and prepared to cut a unique dance costume for Tang Xiaoyu.
No one expected that the two of them would go from being at loggerheads to understanding each other now. When Tang Xiaoyu appeared in the dance costume designed by Fang Qing and her aunt, Wen Ling was envious.
"Qingqing, this dress is so beautiful, no, you have to make one for me too!"
Fang Qing tapped her forehead helplessly, "Can you wear this when dancing? This dress can only be worn in dance competitions. Who would dare to wear it outside normally? Forefather, please forgive me!"
Wen Ling pulled Fang Qing aside and started to act coquettishly and naughtily. Finally, Fang Qing couldn't resist her sweetness anymore and agreed to make a skirt for her. Only then did Wen Ling let her go.
Tang Xiaoyu reluctantly returned to the provincial capital. Before leaving, she left the address and zip code of her home and school. She held Fang Qing and Wen Ning's hands and repeatedly asked them to write to her every month before she reluctantly got on the train.
After seeing Tang Xiaoyu off, Fang Qing immediately started cutting a new skirt for Wen Ling. In the end, Wen Ling felt that Fang Qing's clothes were too ordinary, so the two of them simply made exactly the same skirt and agreed to wear it together on Fang Qing's birthday.
It was a hot July, and because students were on summer vacation, restaurant business was slow.
Fang's mother calculated the recent sales and felt that if she continued to operate, she would lose money, so she suspended the business, paid Fang Qing's aunt double the salary, and prepared to have a good summer vacation herself.
On summer nights, people stroll along the streets fanning themselves with cool air, or go to the night market to look for cheap trinkets, or sit together and play cards.
In the dark corner, there was a group of people staring at the children eagerly...
