Chapter 144 Chilled

Tian Xiang said she wanted to write a letter to Meng Cheng'an. She started writing it in the evening and mailed it the next day.

I just don’t know if he can receive it. I heard that he will leave after the exam. This job is still closed and he can’t go home.

While Tian Xiang's letter was still on the way, Meng Cheng'an's telegram to her arrived first.

He sent two hundred yuan to Tian Xiang and sent a telegram to tell her.

Why did he suddenly send himself money?

Tian Xiang was a little confused, but she soon remembered that she hung up the phone too quickly that time and he was sending her the phone bill.

Okay, okay, it’s already been sent, so I have no choice but to accept it.

About a week later, Tian Xiang received a letter from Meng Cheng'an, which he wrote after the exam.

He said before that he might go abroad, but now he is leaving immediately and it is not known when he will come back. The two of them will not be able to contact each other in the short term.

Actually, I miss him a lot, I miss that handsome face.

In the letter, Meng Cheng'an said that if he came back, he would come to see her.

Tian Xiang was also somewhat looking forward to it.

But the summer vacation was almost over and there was no news from Meng Chengan.

Hu Honglian couldn't help but ask.

Why haven’t you come back yet?

What kind of job is this? I even have to go abroad.

Tian Xiang: "If you haven't come back, it means you are still busy and have a mission."

Hu Honglian: “That’s what I said.”

Tian Xiang: "Mom, what did you say?"

Hu Honglian: "Nothing. It's the holiday and Cheng'an hasn't come back yet, so those gossipers outside are just spreading rumors."

Ever since Tian Xiang and Meng Cheng'an got engaged, there have always been rumors of one kind or another. Whenever something seems a little wrong, those people will say that they are going to separate, hoping that they will have a hard time.

Tian Xiang: "Just live your own life, why bother with them?"

Although Tian Xiang always told Meng Cheng'an to earn face for her so that she could show off to others, it was actually a tactic she used to motivate Meng Cheng'an.

She has been working in the union for almost a year and has seen all kinds of strange things. She has gained a lot of insights and has become more open-minded about some things.

Hu Honglian: "Okay, I'll just ignore them."

Today, the mother and daughter went to the market to buy vegetables together. They returned home chatting and laughing, only to find that Tian Chenhui had returned and was sitting in the small living room in a daze.

Hu Honglian said to him, "Aren't you not coming back for dinner tonight?"

My son went out in the morning and said he would not be back for lunch or dinner.

After observing for a period of time, his family found that Tian Chenhui no longer made friends as casually as before, so they stopped restricting him.

Moreover, Tian Chenhui has been dating someone recently, so we can’t keep him locked up. After all, he is in his early twenties and it is time for him to solve his personal problems.

Tian Chenhui: "I'll eat it, and I'll come back to eat it later."

Hu Honglian: “What?”

Tian Chenhui: "Nothing. Mom, go cook."

Hu Honglian looked at her son with a grim face and thought that this boy might have been heartbroken.

Tian Chenhui was indeed heartbroken.

Well, it’s not that I’ve broken up, but that I’ve finally understood everything.

I originally thought that love had arrived, but who knew that she was attracted by my relationship with the Meng family, and she always asked this and that during a date.

Meng Cheng'an didn't come back, and his sister wasn't worried, but his girlfriend was.

So, we broke up.

After Hu Honglian left, Tian Chenhui whispered to his sister, "You said earlier that the college entrance examination might be relaxed. Is there any news on this matter recently?"

Tian Xiang had mentioned this to her second brother before, but he had no interest in studying at that time.

Now that Tian Chenhui knows that people are not interested in him but the connections behind him, he feels a little more motivated.

Tian Xiang: "The news is quite true. We will give you a notice in one or two months. If you really want to do this, I will lend you those books later. But second brother, please don't tell anyone about this, so that others won't spread it around."

Tian Chenhui nodded, "Don't worry."

Although my sister never mentioned where the news came from, it must have come from the Meng family.

Otherwise how would she know such a confidential matter.

In the following days, Tian Chenhui really began to concentrate on his studies.

As for Tian Chuying, who lives next door, no one has seen her go out for a long time except when she goes to and from get off work.

That person now has a goal to strive for, and he seems like a different person.

…

Meng Cheng'an was unable to come back this summer vacation. By the time he finished his work, school had already started.

The two of them talked on the phone and agreed that he would take two days off during the National Day holiday to come and meet.

However, in mid-September, Tian Xiang got an opportunity from the troupe to perform in Beijing. She immediately called Meng Cheng'an and told him not to come back, and she would go over.

Meng Chengan: "Really?"

"Yes. The troupe will reimburse the travel expenses, so you don't have to spend any money yourself."

Meng Chengan: "Okay. I'll wait for you then."

"Um."

After hanging up the phone, Meng Cheng'an sat in front of the phone in a daze for a while.

Just then, his father, Meng Xiuyuan, came back and saw his son sitting at the small table in a daze, so he asked him, "Who called back?"

Meng Chengan glanced at him and said, "Nothing." Then he went straight to the study.

My son is as cold as ice.

Meng Xiuyuan put down the box of pastries in his hand and sighed silently.

He sat on the sofa in the living room for a while. Then Mr. Meng, dressed in military uniform, came back. Seeing the door of the study closed and his son sitting in the living room, he sighed and scolded him, "You deserve it."

Meng Xiuyuan: “…”

"Dad, please don't rub salt into other people's wounds, okay?"

Mr. Meng: "What's wrong with me throwing salt? Who told you to do such a disheartening thing? You are so old, and you actually want to get married and have children. Aren't you ashamed?"

Meng Xiuyuan: “…”

"Okay, okay, since you all don't want to see me, I'm leaving first."

Mr. Meng: "Get out of here now, don't get in An An's way."

Meng Xiuyuan left.

The old man saw a box of pastries on the tea table, took a look at it and saw that it was the kind his grandson liked, so he took it to the study.

"An An, look what grandpa brought you. It's delicious."

Meng Cheng'an buried his head in a book and ignored him.

Mr. Meng: "Kid, grandpa was in a meeting all day and couldn't talk to me."

Meng Chengan: "Eleven Xiangxiang is coming to perform."

Old Master Meng was stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter.

"Those people are quite capable. They knew I missed my granddaughter-in-law, so they sent her here. OK, I'll tell your aunt to come back and see my precious granddaughter-in-law. I'll also get you two tickets for the concert. The little girls love to watch it.

Also, Xiangxiang likes to eat, so let’s book a private room and let her try our famous dishes in Beijing…”

The old man kept repeating that there was only half a month left, enough time to do anything.

Meng Chengan: "Grandpa, it's okay to meet Auntie, Dad can take some time off. She's only here for two days, time is tight, I hope everyone is happy and don't worry about trivial matters."

Old Master Meng laughed, "Okay, Grandpa will listen to you. It's just a small matter. No matter what happens with your father, you are the only one in Grandpa's heart. No one can surpass you."
