Chapter 288 I feel quite guilty
After hearing Kong Xiuwan's words, Han Zhengping couldn't help but be moved again. His life experience was rough, but he had never suffered or lacked love.
Life was actually very kind to him.
"Then I'll choose to pay for it myself." Han Zhengping thought for a while and said.
He really doesn't want to work in a state department. He would rather make a name for himself through hard work.
"Okay, then you can pay for it yourself." Kong Xiuwan almost did not support his decision.

As a representative, Su Mingchang also frequently attends national meetings. After the meeting this morning, everyone went to the restaurant for lunch. While eating, a representative at the same table said, "This is the first time the country has opened a public funding channel for high school students to study abroad."
The person next to him asked, "Who is it that made your Ministry of Education make an exception?"
"Champion of this year's International Mathematical Olympiad."
"Then this rule should be broken. This is the time when the country needs talented people."
"Yes, that's also what we considered."
…
The two of them chatted back and forth, and Su Mingchang, feeling proud, was also wondering whether it would be better for his grandson to study abroad at government expense or at his own expense. The Su family certainly had the money, but he didn't know what Zhengping would think.
After returning home in the afternoon, he told Su Wenshan about this matter, "In my opinion, I will definitely study abroad at my own expense. After returning, I can do scientific research or other things, which will give me more freedom."
In fact, he wanted to say that after graduation, he would join his family's company and study abroad at his own expense. But it was useless to say that. In the short term, this grandson would not recognize them.
"Well, I'll go to Hai City tomorrow and discuss it with Xiuwan." Su Wenshan really wanted an excuse to find Kong Xiuwan.
"Ask Zhengping which school he is going to, and prepare a house there in advance. Living in your own house is better than living in a dormitory." Su Mingchang said again.
Su Wenshan nodded. He naturally had to do this. But he was afraid that even if he prepared everything, Zhengping would not accept it.
"Ah!" Su Mingchang sighed and said again: "It would be great if the child grew up in our family."
What could Su Wenshan say? He could only remain silent.
The next morning he flew to Hai City. After arriving, he went directly to Kong Xiuwan's factory.
The Kong family used to be in the textile business, and after the reform and opening up, Kong Xiuwan returned to her family's roots. The eldest branch of the Kong family lived abroad, and Kong Xiuwan asked them to help her import some equipment. While her textile factory is smaller than many state-owned factories, the products it produces are truly top-notch.
Therefore, Kong Xiuwan's textile factory business is good.
After Su Wenshan arrived, he first registered at the door and was then led to the door of Kong Xiuwan's office.
I knocked on the door, and then I heard Kong Xiuwan's voice from inside, "Come in."
When Su Wenshan pushed the door open, he saw Kong Xiuwan writing something with her head down, concentrating seriously. He couldn't take his eyes off her.
In her teens and twenties, Kong Xiuwan was youthful and beautiful, like a half-opened bud, somewhat immature but full of vitality. Now, Kong Xiuwan is calm yet cheerful, and her generosity is full of determination.
No matter when, she always attracted him fatally.
"Why are you here?" A cold voice broke his trance. Su Wenshan pulled the corner of his mouth and said, "I have something to discuss with you."
Kong Xiuwan put down the pen in her hand and asked, "What do I need to discuss with you?"
Su Wenshan was already used to her attitude towards him and was not angry. He said, "I want to discuss with you about Zhengping's study abroad. I want to know whether he will study abroad at the government expense or at his own expense."
"At your own expense." Kong Xiuwan said.
"I'll pay for the tuition," Su Wenshan stood up and poured himself a glass of water. Kong Xiuwan snorted, she really didn't treat her as an outsider.
After taking a sip of water, Su Wenshan continued, "Which school does Zhengping plan to attend? I can make arrangements early."
"Su Wenshan, you really don't consider yourself an outsider! Why should you pay for my son's tuition? What's it to you which school he goes to?" Kong Xiuwan retorted to him angrily.
But Su Wenshan seemed not to understand her. She just heard him say, "The school's accommodation is definitely not as comfortable as home. Tell me which school it is and I'll buy a house near it. I can also find a nanny who can cook Chinese food to take care of his diet."
Kong Xiuwan had been in contact with Su Wenshan several times, and he had always been like this. So, there was no need for her to be angry with him.
"Zhengping is going to Harvard. Don't worry about tuition and housing. I'll take care of it. Okay, you can go now."
Su Wenshan sat still, "Xiu Wan, Zhengping has half my blood in his body. This is an indisputable fact. I just want to do something for him. Don't worry, even if you accept my things, I won't make any other demands."
Kong Xiuwan sneered, "Why should we accept your things? You should know how much I hate you. I won't do anything that will make you feel comfortable."
Kong Xiuwan had said so much, but Su Wenshan still sat there calmly. He continued, "I know you hate me. If I'm unhappy, you'll definitely be happy. So, I came here to make you unhappy and make you happy."
All those years of hatred and resentment had to be vented, and Su Wenshan really didn't mind Kong Xiuwan's attitude at all. He would just accept whatever she did.
Kong Xiuwan ignored him and continued writing. She was still angry, but after writing a few words, she grabbed a book from the table and threw it at Su Wenshan. Su Wenshan sat there without trying to dodge, and the book hit him squarely on the forehead, leaving a bruise.
He didn't pay attention to the wound on his forehead, but bent down to pick up the book that fell on the ground, stood up and handed it to Kong Xiuwan, "If you are not satisfied, hit it again."
"Su Wenshan, how did you become such a scoundrel?" Kong Xiuwan asked, leaning back in her chair.
Su Wenshan sat opposite him and said, "It's noon, let's eat together."
Kong Xiuwan: "Get out of here now, or I'll call the police."
This time, Su Wenshan stood up obediently and said, "Okay, I'll go first. I'll come find you if there's anything else."
After saying that, he turned and left. He understood that too much is as bad as too little.
Han Zhengping was unaware of the commotion between Kong Xiuwan and Su Wenshan, and the next day he told his homeroom teacher that he wanted to study abroad at his own expense. The homeroom teacher was surprised for a moment, then said, "The country needs talents like you. Besides, no matter how good a place is abroad, it's not your home."
The class teacher thought that Han Zhengping would never come back after going abroad, otherwise why would he be unwilling to study abroad at public expense?
Han Zhengping knew he had misunderstood, but he didn't explain. There was no need.
As for Gu Siqing, a few days later, Teacher Gao told her that they had already communicated with Peking University and that her conditions were met for application for recommendation, and that the application materials had already been submitted.
Teacher Gao, who is so calm, was a little excited when he said this. Gu Siqing felt guilty. After all, applying for admission was just a cover.
