Chapter 258 The Cousin Has Arrived in the Capital
Then, the professors discovered that Lin Xiaotao had disappeared!
"Where is he? Where is he? Can't find him?"
"We've searched everywhere, but it's not there!"
Have you asked Li Zhen and the others?
"I asked them, but they didn't know either. They said they were going to look for Lin Xiaotao's boyfriend."
"That Lin Xiaotao is really something."
"Well, aren't we pushing her a bit too hard? After all, she's still a young girl, we can't keep pushing her."
"It definitely wasn't me, I didn't do it."
"I don't have any either."
Finally, everyone's gaze turned to the professor who had been discussing things with Xiao Taohua yesterday.
"Don't look at me, I don't have any either."
"Ha, I wonder who called someone's parents yesterday."
"Was I wrong to make the call? It would be a waste not to cherish such a great talent."
"But they have to be willing themselves. They're just kids, only eighteen years old, barely adults. What can they possibly understand?"
"When we were her age, our sons had already been born!"
"So what if someone is dating?"
“We weren’t this clingy when we got married. We were always working.”
“Back then, times have changed. If you ask me, we should give Lin Xiaotao some leeway. We can’t put so much pressure on her all at once. See? That’s why she’s rebelling.”
"Why didn't you say that before? You taught everything, didn't you?"
"But we didn't call their parents."
"Yes, if you call someone's parents, they're bound to be unwelcome."
"What those parents said is so true. They should look at their daughter's thoughts. You're just too anxious."
professor:……
He was so angry that his chest felt tight.
It turns out he's the only bad guy, everyone else is a good guy.
It was a decision made by everyone together.
He stared at the others with dead fish eyes.
"Well, it's not entirely your fault. Since Lin Xiaotao doesn't want to go abroad, then she shouldn't go. Anyway, there are other people vying for that spot. These days, you can't force young people. They have to be willing and proactive for things to develop harmoniously."
"Yes, that's how it should be. Actually, Lin Xiaotao is quite good; she can complete all the tasks assigned to her."
"Yeah, she hasn't had much rest in so long, she should be given a break and let her relax. People can't always be on edge, they need to relax a bit."
"Yes, yes, that's what I thought too."
professor:……
Ah, so that's what you're all talking about.
However, he also wondered if they were being too tense.
Then, when Li Zhen and his team found Xiao Taohua and told the professors that she was in the library, the professors felt even more guilty.
The fact that this child is now studying in the library must be because they've been pushing him too hard.
Let Lin Xiaotao rest for a week.
The professors asked Li Zhen to deliver the message to Lin Xiaotao, their faces filled with remorse.
Upon learning that she was given a day off: ...
Huh? What is that?
What do you mean by saying she's working too hard?
She didn't look at the assignments the professors had given her.
Well, there's nothing to explain anyway. It's better to have these holidays. She'll try to finish reading all the medical books in the library within a week, and if she has time, she'll go to bookstores outside.
Well, it would be even better if we could communicate with a skilled doctor.
When it comes to medicine, one should draw on the strengths of many schools of thought; relying on only one's own perspective is ultimately too narrow.
However, we need to take it one step at a time and focus on the theoretical knowledge first.
While Xiao Taohua was engrossed in reading, Li Zhen and the others were also extremely busy during this period.
With the market opened up, some of them started doing business.
I must say, they actually made quite a bit of money.
Sometimes they feel like they'd rather take time off work to go out and earn money.
However, everyone can clearly distinguish which is more important. Universities are rare, but business is always available.
Besides, college students these days have a certain prestige; only a fool would give up their student status. Even when doing business, having such a pretext makes the people they encounter much friendlier towards them.
Don't miss out on the benefits of nature.
It's just that it's impossible to expand further for the time being.
But it doesn't matter. Since Xiao Taohua is still at school, they don't want anything extra.
In life, you always have to gain some things and give up others; it's impossible for everything to be perfect.
Although Xiaotaohua spends most of her holidays at the library, she still spends some time with her boyfriend from noon to afternoon. The library is lit up at night and doesn't close until 10 pm, so she can continue working!
Xiao Peichuan felt sorry for her when he heard about her irregular schedule, but there was no use in saying anything. So he could only focus on lunch and had Xiao Da and Xiao Er buy a lot of pastries so that Xiao Taohua could eat more while studying.
These were all things that Little Peach Blossom liked, and she happily accepted them.
"Take care of your own health and don't overwork yourself." This was the sentence Xiao Peichuan said most often. He couldn't do anything else, and he even sat with Xiao Taohua in the library.
"Yes, don't worry, I'll be careful. I've got a clue now, and I believe I'll know how to treat it soon."
"Okay, I believe you."
"Yes, once he's healed, we'll go home together and everyone will be happy." Little Peach Blossom smiled and her eyes narrowed at the thought.
"Yes, then our Little Peach Blossom will be a great hero, a miracle doctor."
"Yes, miracle doctor!" Little Peach Blossom nodded emphatically.
Her medical skills are just that amazing! She's not modest at all.
"Miss Lin, why don't you try this and see how it tastes?" Xiao Er is now in charge of the Xiao family's kitchen, and he also makes some of the dishes.
Hearing Xiao Er call out, Xiao Taohua quickly went over to try the snack Xiao Er had made that day, which was called pork jerky.
After Xiao Taohua left, Xiao Peichuan looked at Xiao Da and said, "What is it? Speak up."
Knowing he couldn't hide it from Xiao Peichuan, Xiao Da didn't hesitate and said directly, "Miss Xiao has come to the capital."
Xiao Peichuan frowned: "Her?"
"Yes, and judging by the time, it should be almost here."
"in spite of."
"But Miss Cousin came alone."
"And then?" Xiao Peichuan looked at Xiao Da.
Xiao Da paused for a moment.
No one forced Miss Cousin to come to the capital, and it had nothing to do with Xiao Peichuan. Xiao Da only mentioned this because Miss Cousin has always liked Xiao Peichuan the most since she was a child. Why she came is obvious to everyone.
However, coming here alone so recklessly is irresponsible and a sign of willfulness and selfishness.
Xiao Peichuan, the eldest son of the Xiao family, had long since neglected the family's affairs due to health reasons, and had explicitly rejected his cousin over the years. While he was with the Xiao family, things were fine; the cousin didn't say much after being rejected, only visiting occasionally during holidays. But unexpectedly, just as Xiao Peichuan started dating, his cousin began causing a scene.
Xiao Pei-chuan and the others only learned about these things from his younger siblings.
Xiao Peichuan didn't have any ideas back then, and he certainly doesn't now.
A cousin is just a cousin; she's related to the Xiao family, but that's about it.
As a prominent family, the Xiao family had many marriage alliances with various local families. They had many cousins, but only one left a lasting impression on everyone.
They even brought it up in front of Xiao Peichuan, so it must have been that person.
