Chapter 19 Acceptance
"No, I'm a bit busy with my supervisor's project recently, so it's more convenient for me to live back at school."
Su Baili shook her head and made up a lie that was not really a lie. After all, the project with her mentor was real, she just didn't want to live in school.
So she lied without blushing or feeling nervous. After all, if she didn't go back today, her brother would be jealous.
She won't be easy to coax then.
Besides, no matter how close her relationship with the Wang family becomes, she can never compare with Qi Shenzhi.
In her heart, Qi Shenzhi is the most important person to her, and all others have to stand aside.
The two elders were relieved when they heard this. They suddenly remembered that their daughter was still an excellent student. She was admitted to B University on her own, which is one of the best schools in the country.
If she told this to the village, everyone in the village would envy her and Lao Wang, and their backs would instantly straighten up a lot.
In the past, her ancestors' graves would have smoked out of them. Even for those who had been poor peasants for generations, they could have opened a separate page in their family tree for her...
That certainly can't delay children's studies.
Wang's father said happily, "Okay, study is important, and we don't want to delay your study. You can go home whenever you are free."
"Then can we contact you often in the future?" Zhao's mother asked cautiously. After all, she was her daughter who had just been found, and she couldn't stop caring about her.
Su Baili smiled and said, "Sure, you're welcome anytime."
"well."
When Zhao's mother heard the answer she wanted to hear, the corners of her mouth almost stretched to her ears.
On the other hand, Wang Linfeng, who was standing aside, was very unhappy. He buried his head in sulking. He didn't expect that his sister would leave after only staying for a short while.
At this moment, he stood there, looking as pitiful as a wet puppy.
The careful Su Baili noticed it immediately. She waved to Wang Linfeng, "Xiaofeng, come here. Contact me anytime if you have anything. I will come back to see you on the weekend."
"Really?!" The puppy instantly stood up when he heard his owner's words.
Su Baili nodded affirmatively, "Really!"
"Okay then...sure." Wang Linfeng finally recovered his energy. He happily picked up the small cake on the table and said, "You haven't eaten this yet. Take it back to school and eat it with your classmates. This shop tastes good."
There was a tone of admonition in his words, as if he were Su Baili's parent, telling his daughter to get along well with her classmates when she returned to school.
But Su Baili was very pleased with these words.
Su Baili smiled sweetly, "Okay, thank you Xiaofeng."
"You're welcome. It's my honor."
Wang Linfeng turned his head away pretending to be nonchalant, but the blush on his ears betrayed him.
But Su Baili's smiling eyes kept falling on him, and he felt even more embarrassed, so he quickly changed the subject, "By the way, let me take you out. It's not very safe here at night. You, a girl, should not walk alone at night."
"Okay, then Dad... Dad, Mom... Mom, bye-bye?"
Before leaving, Su Baili's face turned red, but she couldn't help but stammered and shouted out.
This was a name that hadn't been used to for more than 20 years. Su Baili was a little uncomfortable with it when it was suddenly used to.
Her call made the two elders very happy, and they called her a caring little cotton-padded jacket in their hearts.
You know, when we first met in the afternoon, my daughter was still calling me uncle and aunt, but now she is willing to call me dad and mom. What does this mean?
It means she is willing to accept them! ! !
The two people's hearts were as sweet as if they were immersed in sweet water.
Mother Zhao was the first to come back to her senses. She quickly said, "Okay, my dear daughter. See you this weekend."
After she finished speaking, she saw that Wang's father had not responded, so she stretched out her arm and secretly pinched the soft flesh on his waist.
Only then did the king's father come back to his senses.
But unlike Zhao's mother's joy, tears actually welled up in his eyes. In order to avoid being laughed at by his son standing next to him, he turned his head away and refused to look at anyone.
"Ouch, I think something got into my eye. I'm going to the bathroom. Baili, please walk slowly. When you come back on the weekend, give us a call in advance and we'll pick you up at the platform. You must not walk alone in this place."
"Got it, Dad~"
Seeing Wang's father's cute reaction, Su Baili called out again with a smile on her face. This time, it sounded much smoother than before.
Wang's father's body stiffened again, and he rushed into the bathroom without looking back. If you listen carefully, you can still hear sobbing coming from the bathroom.
Zhao's mother shook her head helplessly, "That's all he can do! Just pretend you didn't see it. Your father should still have some dignity..."
Wang Linfeng and Su Baili looked at each other, smiled and nodded.
In the corridor, the two people who had put on their shoes walked slowly downstairs. If you listen carefully, you can hear Wang Linfeng's concerned words, "The light in the corridor has been broken recently, and no one has come to fix it. Sister, please walk carefully. If you can't see clearly, hold on to me..."
"Okay~"
As their voices gradually faded away, Zhao's mother closed the door with relief.
Wang's father finally came out of the bathroom limping with a cane. His eyes were red and it was obvious that he had been crying bitterly.
"They left?"
"Of course I left. Oh, you finally decided to come out?" Mother Zhao looked at him teasingly, making Father Wang feel embarrassed.
"Okay, stop looking. It's impolite to keep looking..."
"You're so angry." Mother Zhao shrugged. When Father Wang was about to smoke, she finally changed the subject and said with great emotion: "I didn't expect that our Xiaofeng is a caring person. When they went downstairs just now, he even reminded his sister to be careful with her steps."
"You've grown up." Wang's father nodded with satisfaction. There was nothing more joyful than seeing his own children living in harmony.
Thinking back to the time when Xiaofeng and Qiyan were like kings who never meet, they would always fight whenever they met.
He also knew that Xiaofeng simply couldn't stand Qi Yan's behavior. He felt that Qi Yan was already so old, but still so willful and reckless. Not only did she cause him to become disabled, but she didn't feel the slightest bit of guilt.
But at that time, he was thinking about his family, and harmony was the most important thing. Qi Yan was a girl, and Xiao Feng was a grown man, so he should give in to her a little. But he didn't expect that such a relationship was wrong.
Xiaofeng's repeated concessions made Qiyan more and more fearless, and finally the two of them became fed up with each other.
He didn't fulfill his responsibilities as a father...
But never mind, Qi Yan now has the life she wants, Xiao Feng can live in harmony with his biological daughter, and everything is moving in a good direction.
Zhao's mother obviously thought the same thing as him. She patted Wang's father on the shoulder in comfort and said, "Let's do this. This is the best choice. Qiyan now has her ideal biological parents. Her life is much better than if she lived with us. So we don't owe her anything. As for Baili... we still have to be extra nice to her in the future. I think Xiaofeng likes her very much. The atmosphere at home will definitely be better than before."
"You're right." Father Wang sighed, and this sigh also meant he had completely let go of Lin Qiyan.
From this moment on, they knew clearly that the only daughter who needed their love and care in the future would be Su Baili.
