Meng Yunji, who was standing to the side, burst out laughing!
"Sis, you've definitely gained weight lately!"
Meng Fuyan was taken aback, looked down at herself, and retorted, "Where? I've always been slim, okay?"
She comes from a well-off family and has excellent genes, so she has always developed very well. Her height and weight are both great. She is just right now, and Meng Fuyan is very satisfied with herself.
However, when the topic of going abroad came up, Meng Fuyan smiled ingratiatingly at Meng Suqin, "Mom, you have to help me with this. I came back specifically for your wedding, and now I want to meet my boyfriend. You absolutely have to help me! Dad will definitely listen to you."
Meng Suqin rolled her eyes. "That's not necessarily true. If he knew you were going abroad and wouldn't be coming back this year, he would definitely be heartbroken."
Meng Fuyan said helplessly, "Then what should I do? I can't just stay in China like this, can I? If I don't get married, then I have to work, but the problem is that I don't want to do those jobs right now. The salary is only a few dozen yuan a month, and I have no motivation at all!"
"If I don't work and can't go to university in China for the time being, I can't just stay at home all day and wait to die, can I? What kind of image would that have?"
She moved closer to Meng Suqin and said to her mother with a flattering look, "Mom, my dearest mom, please put in a good word for me with Dad! After I went abroad, Gu Tingzhi listened to almost everything I said. The conditions there are good, so I can study and live a life of luxury at the same time."
"And most importantly, I like many things, and it's hard to find teachers in China right now. It'll be much easier if I go abroad. I can study at university while also learning art and the like. After graduating in a few years, I can come back and start working. By then, I'll be a bit older, and it will be the perfect age to get married and have children. Everything will be just right, won't it?"
Meng Suqin was well aware of her daughter's feelings for Gu Tingzhi, so naturally she wouldn't stop her. Her daughter was being so affectionate, how could she possibly disagree?
However, while Meng Suqin agreed, Lu Guozhong did not. When Meng Fuyan spoke to him about it that evening, Lu Guozhong was particularly opposed and his attitude was very firm.
"No, it's so far away. What are you going to do there? If you encounter any danger, it will be difficult for Dad to protect you."
"Just stay in the country. You can do whatever you want. Dad's here. Even if you cause a huge disaster, Dad will keep you safe!"
Meng Fuyan retorted softly, "I'm so well-behaved, I would never cause any terrible trouble. I'm not stupid."
Lu Guozhong: "That won't work either. Isn't it good for our family to live together? Your mother just got back, so stay home and spend more time with her. If you want to go to work, Dad will arrange it for you. What do you want to do?"
"I want to study."
"Then I recommend you go to university."
Meng Fuyan strongly resisted, "No, the current Workers', Peasants' and Soldiers' University is meaningless. People there can't concentrate on their studies at all. Besides, the teachers aren't focused on teaching either; they're always doing weird activities. I don't like it."
Lu Guozhong could not refute this point.
In recent years, the learning environment in China has not been very good. The college entrance examination has been suspended for several years. His daughter originally had excellent grades, and if she had taken the college entrance examination normally, she would definitely have been able to get into a prestigious university.
Unfortunately, I can only go as far as high school now.
Lu Guozhong sighed, "No matter what, it's too dangerous for you to go abroad. I don't agree."
Meng Fuyan pouted, "You didn't object when I went last time."
"That's different."
"How is it different? Didn't you already know my identity back then? If you didn't want me to go in the end, with your power, it would only take a word, just like now. I went abroad before under the name of Gu Tingzhi's girlfriend. He's still abroad now, so I should be able to go. You can ruin this with just a word now. Why didn't you do it back then?"
Lu Guozhong could not refute it, because what Meng Fuyan said was true.
Meng Fuyan said, "Back then, my mother was abroad, and you wanted me to go see her, so you let me go. Now that the person you like is back, and you've achieved your goal, you won't let me see my boyfriend?"
Lu Guozhong: "..."
This really infuriated him.
"I'm preventing you from encountering any danger, and you're still not happy? You really want to be away from your parents for several years?"
Meng Fuyan lowered her head, her attitude resolute. "Anyway, I don't want to stay in China. It's too boring. The situation in China won't change in the short term. It seems like it will last for who knows how long. I won't do it. I finally have the opportunity to go out. I want to go out and stay for a few years, study hard, and travel around freely."
"I'm nineteen this year. When I graduate from university and come back, I'll be in my early twenties. At that time, I can get married and have children, or go back to work. It'll be just in time."
It's only 1971, and there are still several years until the end of the special period. Gu Tingzhi can't come back for the time being, so it's really pointless for her to stay in the country at this time.
After going abroad, she can not only study and experience university life, but also travel all over the world, have a great time dating Gu Tingzhi. This is so important to her.
She had a very difficult life in her past life, always on edge and thinking about revenge. Now that all her enemies have been dealt with, she has no more pressure and just wants to enjoy life.
A few years later, after graduating from university, she had a few more years of fun, dated, and returned to China with Gu Tingzhi. Whether she got married, had children, or focused on her career, she would have no regrets.
If she doesn't go out now, she'll have to wait a very long time. Besides, her father works in the military, and so does her husband. Even if things open up in China in the future, she still won't be able to go abroad.
