Chapter 200 Finale
Zhang Jinyue has grown into a graceful young lady with a very high IQ. With her around, the top spot in the grade has never changed. Zhang Xingcan, on the other hand, is just the opposite. He is good at everything except studying, and he has no interest in it at all. He always ranks last in the exams.
This made Xia Wanyang very uncomfortable. She and Zhang Shiye were considered top students in the 1980s, with diplomas from Columbia University. She was also a lecturer at Fudan University. How could her son end up like this?
That day, Xia Wanyang, who was invited to school by the teacher again, looked at Zhang Shiye angrily, "I'm the same as you. Next time there is a parent-teacher meeting, you go to it on behalf of your son. I will never go again!"
Zhang Shiye touched his nose and asked, "What happened? Xingxing was criticized again?"
Xia Wanyang drank a large glass of water and slammed the glass on the table. "Criticism is fine, but I have never been so embarrassed in my life. Your son has watched too many movies and formed a small gang in school. He fights over a disagreement and warns people not to complain. I will apologize to them one by one!"
Zhang Shiye's face fell instantly. He stroked Xia Wanyang's back gently while looking at Xiao Xingxing, whose head was about to shrink into her neck. "Is what your mother said true?"
Zhang Xingcan has grown up fearless and looks down on everyone, but he is afraid of only one person: his father Zhang Shiye.
It was not because his father had ever beaten him, but because the powerful aura emanating from Zhang Shiye was too terrifying. Especially when he got into trouble or made his mother unhappy, Zhang Xingcan would be frightened by his sharp eyes and a chill would involuntarily surge in his heart.
"Dad, I didn't bully anyone casually. I only dealt with bad kids. They relied on their well-off families to isolate those with less well-off conditions. I just... just used their own methods to fight them. They boasted that their families were well-off, so who could be better than me?"
Zhang Shiye kicked Xiao Xingxing's butt, sending her flying several meters away. Xia Wanyang ran over in fear and said in a hoarse voice, "Why are you kicking so hard? What if you break it?"
Zhang Shiye had a gloomy face. "Zhang Xingcan, how much money your mother and I make is none of your business? That's our retirement money. With your academic performance, how can I rely on you? Who told you to go out and show off in my name? You're using my name to show off. Do you understand what this means? What's the difference between you and the bad kid you mentioned? Are you no longer a bad kid in their eyes?
"You are a teenager, and you are so shameless as to ask my wife to apologize on your behalf. Where is your face? You are a coward who hides behind others when you make a mistake!"
Zhang Xingcan was so scared that he didn't even dare to cry out loud. He knelt on the ground and trembled and said, "Dad, I was wrong!"
Zhang Shiye walked over and pulled him up, "Who told you to kneel down? Don't you know that a man's knees are made of gold? Your sister is already in junior high school, and you can barely finish elementary school. Don't you feel ashamed? You have the energy to stare at others every day, but don't you have the energy to read more books? When someone asks me what my son's education is in the future, what should I say? An elementary school diploma?"
Xia Wanyang breathed a sigh of relief. She knew her man too well. Saying these words would help him calm down, otherwise he would just kick her directly.
From that day on, Xiao Xingxing became a completely different person. He started to do his homework on time, stopped forming cliques at school, and no longer went out to play with his brothers after school. He would also take the initiative to ask Xiao Yueyue for help when he had questions.
But he might not be cut out for studying. No matter how hard he worked, his grades were still mediocre. He was particularly good at running. Xiao Xingxing had inherited Zhang Shiye's height and long legs, and his short-distance running results were particularly good. The physical education school teacher visited him several times before he persuaded Xia Wanyang to let him try.
The sports school is a boarding school. Ever since Xingxing moved out, Xia Wanyang suddenly felt that her home was empty.
Zhang Shiye looked at his wife, whose face was twisted into a bun, and held back his laughter as he hugged her into his arms, "Okay~ Children and grandchildren have their own blessings, let him do whatever he wants!"
Xia Wanyang murmured, "With so many businesses at home, what shall we do in the future? Yueyue will be exhausted to death!"
Zhang Shiye rubbed Xia Wanyang's little head, "Yueyue is much better than the two of us. Even if there are more businesses, she can manage them in an orderly manner. Don't worry about it, we will talk about the future later!"
Xia Wanyang sighed, "I see that Dad has been unhappy recently. Please spare some time and let's take them out for a trip!"
Zhang Shiye thought for a moment and said, "We've been to almost all other places in the past two years. Let's go back to our hometown this time. My parents are getting older and older, so they must be homesick!"
Zhang Shiye did what he said. He arranged things outside and set off with the whole family. The eldest son got married last year and is now three months pregnant. The second son also has a girlfriend and came along this time. The whole family of twenty people returned to the Dongfanghong Brigade in a mighty manner.
Zhang Heping was so happy that he couldn't stop smiling. He felt the air was fresher when he returned to his hometown. As soon as he got off the car, he took Aunt Qiao out to visit relatives.
The children were also very happy to be back here, and they all ran away in a blink of an eye. The adults left started cleaning the house and repairing the house. Because they were going to stay here for half a month, they brought back a lot of things this time. After cleaning up, they started preparing dinner.
Zhang Shiye took Xia Wanyang to the river where they confirmed their feelings. They walked along the river hand in hand, just like when they first started dating, reminiscing about the past.
Zhang Shiye suddenly said, "Thank you, my wife."
Xia Wanyang looked at him puzzledly, "Thank me for what?"
"Thank you for coming back to me in this life, and for accompanying me all the time. Thank you for giving me your wholehearted love, thank you for giving me a pair of lovely children, and thank you for coming back so that I don't have any regrets in this life!"
Xia Wanyang started to cry while laughing, "Hubby, you're not the only one who has regrets in your previous life. I have more regrets than you. I hate my cowardice in my previous life. I hate my distrust of you in my previous life. I thought you would care and blame me if something like that happened, so I just left.
But no matter in the past life or this life, you are my favorite. "
Zhang Shiye stopped and hugged her in his arms, his eyes slightly red as he said, "You are also my favorite, no matter how many lifetimes it takes."
…
The white moonlight is not the light emitted by her when she was young, but the light in my eyes when I looked at you when I was young. That light has illuminated my two lives. I think no matter whether I will reincarnate or not, the light in my eyes will always shine for you. ——Zhang Shiye
You passed by my world, leaving a memory behind, but I used it to fill my short life. Fortunately, I have another chance. In this life, I will get you back. - Xia Wanyang
