Lu Wanying sat in the classroom, her mind wandering from time to time, returning to the state she was in when she first entered school, or even worse.
In the past, my father could do some heavy work and earn some income, but now he can’t do heavy work. Even if he goes out to work, he can only do some easy work and he can’t make any money.
She had to think about her future life.
Her academic performance was getting worse and worse. Whenever she met An Xinghe occasionally, she would feel a dull pain in her heart and even breathing became difficult.
In July, the scorching weather bakes the earth, and even breathing is hot.
Lu Wanying walked out of the examination room and returned home with a numb look on her face. Not long after, she checked her scores without any expectation.
250.
This score was a naked mockery of her incompetence, and she leaned back in her chair subconsciously.
Because he was the one who caused the injury to his father at the construction site last time, he had to pay for most of the money. There was only 10,000 yuan left in the family. The salary that his father earned as a janitor was just enough to pay the rent, and they were almost unable to make ends meet every month.
Next school year, I will have to pay several thousand yuan in tuition at the beginning of the semester. I can't sustain myself for long with this meager source of income.
Moreover, this city was filled with too many sad things for her, and she didn't want to stay there any longer.
After careful consideration, she prepared a delicious meal in the evening and waited for her father to come back.
Lu Rong was enjoying his meal and casually asked, "How did you do on the final exam?"
Lu Wanying's face darkened slightly, and her voice was bitter, "Not very good."
Lu Rong paused in his action of picking up the food and comforted her, "Wanying, it's okay. Just because you're not good at studying doesn't mean you're not good at other things. Dad believes in you. You're very smart. As long as you set your mind to it, there's nothing you can't do."
Lu Wanying was silent for a moment after hearing this, and suddenly she spoke loudly, "Dad, I plan to drop out of school and go to Kyoto to work hard."
Lu Rong was struck by lightning and looked at her in disbelief. "Wanying, you...what did you say?"
Lu Wanying looked at him firmly and said in a resolute voice, "I said I don't plan to go to high school anymore. I plan to go to Kyoto to fight and strive."
Lu Rong slowly put down his chopsticks and was silent for a long time before asking, "Wanying, have you really thought it through?"
Lu Wanying nodded.
"You're still so young, going to a city as big as Kyoto. Have you decided what to do?"
Lu Wanying thought about it for a long time, but really couldn't figure out what to do.
"Dad, even though I haven't made up my mind yet, I still want to go to Kyoto. I can be a waiter, sell things, or even hand out flyers. No matter how hard or tiring it is, I'm willing to do it. I really don't want to stay in Hai City anymore. It's given me too many bad memories. I want to start over somewhere else."
Lu Rong didn't expect Wanying to mature so quickly. She was completely different from her innocent and carefree appearance in the past.
A trace of self-blame suddenly flashed in his eyes. If it weren't for such a big change in the Lu family, perhaps Wanying wouldn't have to worry about her livelihood.
"Wanying, you have to think carefully about the consequences of choosing this path. It will definitely be full of thorns, and your dad can't be by your side. You will be alone in this strange place in Kyoto, isolated and helpless. It will definitely be very difficult. Have you really thought it through?" Lu Rong didn't have any expectations for her now. He just hoped that she would live a safe and smooth life.
He was afraid that she would regret choosing this path later, so he repeatedly interrogated her.
"Dad, I've been thinking about this for a long time. Just like you said, if you choose a path, you have to finish it even if you have to kneel down. Since I have no interest in studying, I shouldn't live my life in a rut. I'm not willing to live such a boring life. No matter how hard it is, I can grit my teeth and persevere."
"Dad, although I can't take you to Kyoto for the time being, I'll pick you up as soon as I'm more settled there, okay?"
"Don't worry about taking me over. Just live your own life and keep in touch with dad from time to time." Lu Rong warned solemnly.
Lu Wanying's eyes flashed with surprise, "Dad, do you agree to let me go to Kyoto?"
"You have considered it carefully, how can I not agree? Your father also started from scratch and came to this city alone to work hard and suffered a lot. But now looking back, although those days were hard, he gained a lot, including meeting your mother." Lu Rong recalled the past, a warm smile on his face.
"As my daughter, you've decided to drop out of school and go to Kyoto. You've shown a lot of courage like your father did back then. With your courage, coupled with your hard work and perseverance, you'll definitely be able to accomplish great things. Dad believes you have the ability."
"But you have to promise me to take good care of yourself and not to suffer any hardship by yourself. And here's Dad. Even though I can't help you much, I can at least make you feel warm."
"Now that you're gone, Dad also plans to go back to his hometown. I've been busy with business for the first half of my life and haven't had time to go back. I'll consider it an early retirement and go back to live in my paradise." Lu Rong laughed out loud.
Lu Wanying's eyes were slightly moist, and she leaned into his words with emotion, choking and saying, "Dad, thank you for understanding me."
The warm yellow light sprinkled on the two people's heads, creating a cozy feeling.
"When are you going?"
"Next Monday."
"Today is Thursday, and there are still three days until next Monday." Lu Rong suddenly felt a little reluctant.
After all, his daughter is only 17 years old, and he still feels a little worried about her going to such a far place.
For this purpose, Lu Rong took three days off to stay at home with Lu Wanying.
The father and daughter finally had time to check out the surrounding attractions, such as the Bell Tower Ancient Town and the amusement park. The three of them had a great time.
Sunday.
Lu Wanying began to pack her luggage. The distance was too far, so she didn't plan to bring too many things. She packed a few clothes and saw the yellow Pikachu in the corner of the closet with a string of star pendants hanging around its neck. Her eyes flickered slightly.
Looking closely, his expression became a little colder.
She closed the wardrobe.
In the afternoon before dinner, she basically put all the miscellaneous things into the garbage bag and quickly took it out to throw away.
As soon as I jogged down the stairs, I saw a familiar figure out of the corner of my eye.
She paused slightly, but quickly ran past him again, as if she hadn't seen him.
When An Xinghe saw that she ignored him, his heart felt like it was broken in two, torn apart.
Ever since he agreed to break up, her QQ profile picture has never appeared again.
Occasionally he couldn't help but send her messages, but they always fell into the sea and there was no reply.
He watched her throw the garbage bag into the trash can. When she turned back, she didn't even glance at him. He couldn't help but reach out and grab her wrist, shouting bitterly, "Wanying."
Lu Wanying was startled by his sudden action. Feeling the residual warmth from her wrist, she shuddered violently. "Is there something important?"
