Chapter 120 Chapter 120 Tian Xinxing
“Yes, I am a very lucky man.”
The woman with gentle eyes and eyebrows looked at the host and slowly recounted her past experiences in a soft but powerful voice.
Before she was 16, Tian Zhaodi was a poor girl who was forced to drop out of school and go home to do farm work after completing nine years of compulsory education. She was even almost sold to an old man by her parents in exchange for a dowry.
She hated that God never favored her.
Luck is a distant and ethereal word to her, something she will never be able to obtain.
But all this changed dramatically when the 16-year-old was tricked into boarding the smuggling boat.
She was supposed to be in a shipwreck, but she was extremely lucky to meet a good person who changed her future life.
Even though more than ten years have passed, Tian Xinxing would occasionally wake up from his sleep in the dead of night.
Like now
The woman, who was already in her thirties, opened her eyes with rapid breathing in the early morning.
She looked at the warmly decorated bedroom and her lover sleeping beside her in doubt and couldn't help but start to suspect that all this was just a beautiful dream of the 16-year-old girl before her death.
"Having a nightmare again?"
The man turned on the night light, half stood up and gently hugged his frightened wife in his arms.
The woman hugged her husband tightly, absorbing his warmth. "I dreamed that you and I were floating on the sea after the ship sank. My brother disappeared, and we were both eaten by a terrible shark."
Gao Xingwei gently patted his wife's back. The lively and cheerful boy in the past has grown into a mature man who can shoulder the responsibility of the family.
"Don't be afraid, Teacher Xiaoxing, those are just dreams."
After graduating from university, Tian Xinxing studied for a master's degree and a doctorate, and finally became a lecturer in a second-tier university.
The name "Teacher Xiaoxing" became a unique interest for the couple.
Feeling the warmth of the person in his arms, Tian Xinxing's emotions gradually calmed down.
Gao Xingwei stood up and went to the living room to get a glass of warm water and handed it to his wife. "Have a drink. How about we go visit my brother today, sweep his grave, and then go to the school you mentioned tomorrow?"
Tian Xinxing held the cup and took a sip of warm water.
She paused, then shook her head, "No, I've already made an agreement with Principal Xie. If I don't go today, she and the children will be very disappointed."
——After achieving financial freedom, Tian Xinxing has been committed to charity, supporting children who, like her, are unable to go to school for various reasons.
This visit to a school in a remote mountainous area is also to ensure that the children can actually receive financial support instead of becoming a tool for some people to make money.
Gao Xingwei didn't persuade him anymore, but just coaxed him softly: "Okay, then you sleep a little longer, I'll go make breakfast and call you when it's time."
