After much deliberation, Meng Xueyun considered how to stop Ye Linchen from leaving Jiangcheng City.
Ultimately, I decided to accept Ye Zhenghua's suggestion and talk to the homeroom teacher, Ms. Ma.
Maybe if I complain to her and gain her sympathy, I can come up with a solution.
The next day at noon, just as class was starting, Meng Xueyun arrived at the school and went to Teacher Ma's office.
Teacher Ma was grading papers when she saw her arrive. She was taken aback for a moment, then smiled warmly at him.
"Oh, this is Ye Linchen's mother. Please come in and have a seat."
Meng Xueyun quickly put on a smile and went over.
Teacher Ma put down her pen, tidied the test papers to one side, then brought out a chair, placed it next to her desk, and invited her to sit down.
"Ye Linchen's mother, is there something you need today?"
"Teacher Ma, to be honest, there really is something I need to tell you."
As Meng Xueyun spoke, she observed Teacher Ma's expression, pondering how to begin.
"Is it because of Meng Zihan? Don't worry, she's been doing well lately. If she continues like this, and performs well in the exam, getting into a junior college shouldn't be a problem."
Teacher Ma, afraid that she would worry, comforted her with a smile.
Meng Xueyun curled her lips in disdain.
I'm going to take the college entrance exam!
How could her Meng Zihan possibly go to a junior college? Of course, it has to be a bachelor's degree, and it has to be Jiangcheng University!
Meng Zihan had told her that Gu Yifei's father had already secured her a place as a sponsored student.
Of course, this cannot be told to Teacher Ma.
Meng Xueyun smoothed her hair, hesitated for a moment, and then spoke.
"Teacher Ma, I'm here today not for Xiaohan, but for my daughter, Ye Linchen."
"For Ye Linchen?" Teacher Ma looked at her suspiciously.
It's common knowledge that the mother and daughter don't get along, and Ye Linchen has even declared that she is an orphan.
What is she here for now?
Meng Xueyun sighed.
"You don't know, this child has been stubborn and inflexible since she was little. As her mother, I've really had my heart broken."
"Tell me, we're family, it's not like we have any major grudges. If you take a step back and I take a step back, the matter will be over."
"This child just can't get over this hurdle, so I, as her mother, have to give in to her."
“During this time, whenever I had free time, I would cook delicious food for her and send it over, hoping to ease the tension between us. Although she still had a stern face, she didn’t seem to treat me as coldly as before.”
“I thought she would change her mind soon, and I was planning to have a good talk with her after the college entrance exam, to talk things out about the past, and to get her to come home. It would be so nice for the family to be harmonious.”
“But I heard from Xiaohan that Xiaochen filled all his college applications with universities in other cities. If he gets in, he will only come back twice a year. The relationship that has finally eased up may become tense again.”
As she spoke, she wiped her red eyes, looking heartbroken.
“Tell me, she’s just a girl, only eighteen years old, running off to such a far place, how unsafe is that? How can we, as parents, not feel at ease?”
"If something happens, we won't be able to get there immediately!"
Tears welled in Meng Xueyun's eyes as she patted her chest, heartbroken, and said, "I feel so terrible just thinking about this. I can't sleep at night, and I don't dare to talk to her about it, afraid of affecting her mood and making her perform poorly in the college entrance exam..."
"Actually, Jiangcheng University isn't bad either, and it's close by, making it convenient for us to take care of her. Why can't she apply to Jiangcheng University!"
Teacher Ma felt very uncomfortable after hearing Meng Xueyun's words.
She also disagreed with Ye Linchen applying to Beijing University, because with Ye Linchen's grades, he would have no problem getting into the finance department of Jiangcheng University.
Finance is notoriously difficult to get into.
Over the years, only two students from the graduating class of this school have been admitted to university, but unfortunately neither of them were taught by her, which has always been a source of regret for her.
In the class she's teaching now, at least one student, Ye Linchen, might get into university. However, Ye Linchen is stubborn and won't listen to her advice. He insists on taking the entrance exam for some university in Beijing.
I'm so disappointed in you!
"Ye Linchen's mother, I understand what you're saying. This child is smart, but he's too opinionated, which is really a headache."
"Actually, most of her classmates applied to local universities, and very few left Jiangcheng. I tried to persuade her, but she wouldn't listen."
Meng Xueyun sighed again, looking worried.
“Teacher Ma, you are also a mother, so you must understand how I feel. I really want to get closer to Xiaochen. She's gone so far away, and even if I want to, I can't help her. Does this mean we'll be estranged forever?”
Teacher Ma felt sorry for her.
It was because her mother was biased, giving all the water to her younger brother, but the mother and daughter still reconciled at the last moment.
Neither she nor her mother had any regrets.
That's how Ye Linchen should be!
“I can understand, I can understand. Ye Linchen is too young to understand her parents’ good intentions. She will definitely understand when she becomes a mother and has her own children.”
“Sigh, I’m just afraid that if she’s far away, our relationship will fade.” Meng Xueyun sighed, then looked at Teacher Ma and tentatively said, “I was thinking, could we change Xiao Chen’s application to Jiangcheng University?”
Teacher Ma hesitated for a moment, then nodded: "No problem, you are her biological mother, you can make the decision for her."
Teacher Ma was very moved. Ye Linchen treated the Ye family this way, but her mother was still willing to tolerate and care for Ye Linchen, and wanted to continue to influence her with family affection. Of course, she had to give Meng Xueyun this opportunity.
He immediately took out the college application form and changed Ye Linchen's application.
"Teacher Ma, I have another request. Could you please not tell Xiao Chen about this, so that she doesn't feel resentful and it affects her college entrance exam?"
