The Ke family had just shaken off the gloom because Ke Qiao's monthly exam results had returned to their former rankings, but then Mrs. Ke started arguing with Ke Qiao over a trivial matter.
It's one thing to start arguing, but then Chang Rihui is inexplicably dragged into it.
Ke Qiao was furious. The monthly exam results were out, and her grades had returned to normal. How could Chang Rihui still be involved?
Keqiao has become extremely sensitive due to the recent constant arguments.
She suspected that Mrs. Ke did not intend to keep her promise. Mrs. Ke simply did not have a good opinion of their relationship. No matter how much effort she put in, Mrs. Ke would stick to her own ideas. Her compromises would not bring the desired results at all!
Ke Qiao felt utterly desperate. Why wouldn't even her dearest mother support her in loving someone she liked?
Mrs. Ke was unaware of Ke Qiao's drastic emotional fluctuations; she continued to accuse Chang Rihui without any reason.
"In the end, Chang Rihui is a menace! If you two continue to be entangled, it will ruin your life! Keqiao, I am your mother, I would never harm you!"
Ke Qiao: "I never said you would harm me. Of course I know that everything you do is for my own good, but I may not like the things you impose on me!"
"Keqiao! You've made me so angry!"
Mrs. Ke was furious, and the situation was almost out of control. Mr. Ke quickly went to the side to try and calm her down.
With Mr. Ke's reassurance, Mrs. Ke gradually calmed down.
It was at this moment that Ke Qiao could no longer tolerate Mrs. Ke's prejudice against her beloved and dropped a bombshell on her.
Ke Qiao informed them: "Mom and Dad, I've thought it through. I don't want to study abroad as an exchange student during my university years!"
"Keqiao?!"
"Keqiao!"
Mrs. Ke and Mr. Ke screamed at the same time. Compared to Mrs. Ke's fury, Mr. Ke's face was filled with more worry.
Why would his daughter have such thoughts?
Haven't they managed to get through to their daughter's inner world all these years?
...
Mr. Ke racked his brains but couldn't find a satisfactory answer.
Meanwhile, Mrs. Ke has launched a fierce attack on Keqiao.
She pointed at her unfilial daughter and shouted, "You won't study abroad? What right do you have not to? Do you know how much your father and I want you to become an excellent diplomat! Do you understand how much your father and I have poured our hearts and souls into you?!"
Becoming an outstanding diplomat was always Mrs. Ko's and Mr. Ko's dream.
Due to the times, neither of them pursued their dream careers, and they missed out on them.
After their daughter was born, the couple made a decision without hesitation: their daughter would definitely become an outstanding diplomat in the future.
Ke Qiao's actions were tantamount to tearing apart the hearts of Mrs. Ke and Mr. Ke.
Ke Qiao shouted back at Madam Ke, "I know! Of course I know! You don't need to treat me like an ungrateful wretch. I made this decision because I know how much you've sacrificed over the years and after careful consideration!"
Parents have spent countless efforts on their children.
Looking back on her performance over the years, Ke Qiao sometimes felt a sense of powerlessness. Compared to gifted geniuses, she lacked many things, and no matter how hard she tried, it would be difficult for her to reach the same level as geniuses.
She may never be able to fulfill her parents' dreams.
The fear in a young person's heart is the one thing they can't say out loud.
Mrs. Ke was furious: "You're spouting nonsense! You have no idea what we, as your parents, have done for you!"
"Keqiao! If you only want to be with a man all day long just because you like him, then you are a daughter who has disappointed your father and me immensely!"
"mom!"
Ke Qiao was so angry at Mrs. Ke's rude words that she cried.
"Why would you think that about me? I just wanted to try a different path, it has nothing to do with Chang Rihui!"
"You're telling me there's no connection?" Mrs. Ke laughed in exasperation at her daughter's excuse. "How could there be no connection! Before the two of you got entangled, you were so obedient and worked so hard to become an excellent diplomat!"
Her daughter did nothing wrong; the only one at fault was Chang Rihui, who tried to lead her daughter astray. All the changes began from that time.
Ke Qiao argued, "That's true, but I don't want to be a diplomat now, and I don't want to go to the Foreign Affairs University in the future!"
"Keqiao, you're not allowed to say that!"
These words crossed Mrs. Ke's bottom line, and realizing this, Mr. Ke quickly scolded Ke Qiao to shut up.
Some things should not be said lightly, otherwise even the most important blood ties will be difficult to repair.
Mrs. Ke looked murderous.
Ke Qiao snorted coldly and stubbornly turned his head away.
Mrs. Ke sneered repeatedly: "Very well, Ke Qiao. You think your parents treat you badly, and that their arrangements for you are a will forcibly imposed on you. In that case, then go with Chang Rihui! He will consider your feelings! He will respect you!"
"Madam, you absolutely mustn't!" Mr. Ke looked at the two most important women in his life as if facing a formidable enemy.
Mr. Ke pleaded with Mrs. Ke, "Madam, Ke Qiao is still a child. She doesn't understand things. If you force her to leave, the consequences will be unimaginable!"
How could I force my daughter to be with a strange man?
Mrs. Ke smiled dismissively: "I'd like to see if she has the ability."
"I'll prove it to you!" Ke Qiao ran back to her room to pack her luggage.
Mr. Ke frantically shook Mrs. Ke's arm, "Don't go crazy, that's my daughter!"
It's so dangerous for my daughter to go out alone!
Mrs. Ke impatiently shook off his hand, and feeling that wasn't enough, she shouted into Ke Qiao's room: "I paid for all your things. If you're going to run away from home, you'd better leave empty-handed!"
Keqiao must be looking for his piggy bank in his room. Every year, his relatives give him a lot of lucky money, which he keeps himself.
If Keqiao were to spend such a large sum of money, it would be difficult for her not to become independent and powerful. For a long time, she wouldn't even need to worry about financial pressure and could live a very comfortable life.
They have their own space outside and don't have the pressure from their parents.
Mrs. Ke, wanting to force her love-struck daughter to do something, was determined not to give her any more time to procrastinate, as the college entrance exam was just around the corner and she needed to finish quickly.
What will happen to two poor students with no money? The answer is self-evident.
