Chapter 215: Hometown
After finishing a day's work, Zhou Hansheng received a letter from home.
The letter paper was filled with information about Shen Qingqing and Jiang Zhixun.
In the end, there was only one piece of information left in Zhou Hansheng's mind: Shen Qingqing chose to go back to her ex and reunited with Jiang Zhixun!
Since she can accept a reconciliation, why can't she choose him?
Compared to what Jiang Zhixun did, he just asked her to calm down and let her stay in the UK temporarily. Is it so unforgivable!
"Bang!"
The cup fell to the ground and broke into pieces instantly.
Zhou Hansheng untied his tie and breathed heavily.
Looking at the mess on the ground, he suddenly laughed out loud. What's the point of losing his temper?
Shen Qingqing can't see or hear.
Besides, she wouldn't care.
She was so cold that even if a conflict occurred, she would not argue or make a fuss with him, but would just look at him with a calm look.
Because she doesn't care, she can always remain calm.
Because she doesn't care, she can just leave without any regrets.
Shen Qingqing doesn't love him at all!
How could Zhou Hansheng let go of a woman he had liked for many years and had the good fortune to date?
He didn't know what to do.
Return to China to save the relationship… He had tried this approach, but it didn’t work.
What else can he do?
There was nothing he could do.
Unlike Jiang Zhixun, the Jiang family's kindness in raising Shen Qingqing gave him a natural advantage.
Now that Shen Qingqing has agreed to get back together, he would be bringing humiliation upon himself if he goes back.
He walked into the room where Shen Qingqing had lived in a daze. All her personal belongings had been dealt with, leaving no trace.
She is really cruel.
So heartless.
She is also clear-headed enough to know what she wants.
Zhou Hansheng persuaded himself to let it go while imagining it over and over again.
If he hadn't taken the cold approach that day and hadn't left Qingqing alone at home, would the situation have been different?
I think so.
The New Year is approaching, and that is the time they have agreed to get married.
Unfortunately, all of them turned into nothing.
Zhou Hansheng devoted himself to his research and wanted to go back to see Shen Qingqing as soon as possible.
The energy I had been holding back was dissipated, leaving only deep bitterness, regret, and powerlessness...
A piece of letter paper filled with writing lay at my feet. In addition to the matter of Shen Qingqing and Jiang Zhixun, the topic of blind dates was also mentioned.
Zhou Hansheng had a blank expression on his face, thinking in self-deprecation that if he couldn't marry the woman he liked, it would be the same no matter who he married.
As long as the elders are happy.
…
The final exams are over and the school is on winter break.
But Shen Qingqing was sent to Shanghai for exchange and study, and the vacation had not officially started yet.
She was originally from Shanghai, but was taken to Beijing by Jiang's father and mother after her parents died unexpectedly.
She has not returned to Shanghai for so many years.
There’s an element of escapism.
I also have the idea of completely staying away from my relatives in Shanghai.
Returning to Shanghai again, and coming to the school where her parents once worked, Shen Qingqing felt a little complicated.
While eating in the cafeteria with my colleagues, I couldn't help but get distracted.
"Teacher Shen, are you feeling unwell?"
Seeing that she was distracted and not paying attention while eating, her colleague asked her with concern.
Shen Qingqing shook her head, "It just reminded me of my childhood."
I was ill a few years ago and my memory has deteriorated, so some things have become blurry.
But when I came back here, those images came to my mind again, becoming clearer and clearer.
Her parents took her to eat in the cafeteria.
There are also scenes of their students, those older brothers and sisters teasing her.
Shen Qingqing knew that it really happened.
She was really happy when she was a child.
The colleague knew a little about Shen Qingqing, although not much, but with a little thought, he could understand why she was in a low mood.
"Give me a moment."
Shen Qingqing was puzzled, "Huh?"
The person sitting opposite had already stood up and quickly returned with a bowl of food.
It's sugar porridge.
"Your comrade Jiang asked me to take care of you. Eat something sweet to feel good!"
Shen Qingqing was touched, "When did you two become so close?"
"It's not just me. My colleagues in the office and even the one who lives next to you have all been bribed by him."
Jiang Zhixun looks cold and difficult to get along with, but in fact he is a warm-hearted person.
When others are in need, he will take the initiative to lend a hand.
When asking someone to help take care of Shen Qingqing, they would also send snacks such as fruits and melon seeds.
His sincerity was there and his attitude was very sincere. Not to mention that Shen Qingqing had a good temper and was likable, everyone would also take care of Shen Qingqing for Jiang Zhixun's sake.
"You have been away from Beijing for a while, and Comrade Jiang must be anxiously waiting for you to come home."
Shen Qingqing felt embarrassed by the teasing.
That guy would call her whenever he had time, and every time he would ask her how many days it would take before they could meet.
When they were together, Shen Qingqing thought he was too clingy. Now that they couldn't see each other, she missed him a lot.
"I hope I can get back before New Year's Eve."
Due to a temporary assignment, they have to stay in Shanghai for a while.
"That's for sure, don't worry."
After chatting with her colleagues for a while, Shen Qingqing felt much more relaxed.
I decided to visit the place where I lived as a child after I finished work.
As soon as she left the cafeteria, a middle-aged woman bumped into her and the book in Shen Qingqing's hand fell to the ground.
The other person apologized to her repeatedly, bent down to help pick up the book, and then wiped it again and again with the corner of his clothes.
"I'm sorry, I was in a hurry and didn't see it clearly. This is your book, it's not dirty..."
The middle-aged woman looked up and saw Shen Qingqing's appearance clearly. Confusion, surprise, and uncertainty appeared in her tired eyes.
"Qingqing, are you Qingqing?"
Although her parents have passed away, she still has relatives in Shanghai, but those people are not reliable.
Or he wants to fight with her for the inheritance.
Or they are afraid of being a burden to her and stay away from her.
Shen Qingqing knew all these things.
If she had any relative who was truly kind to her, she would not have been taken away by Jiang's father.
Shen Qingqing's habitual smile gradually disappeared.
She had forgotten many people and things, and didn't know which relative the visitor was.
But no matter who it is, it can't affect her current life. It's useless to play the emotional card with her. She will no longer be dragged down by meaningless things.
Shen Qingqing looked calm and said to her colleague, "You go back first, I'll take care of something."
People should have a sense of boundaries, and colleagues have no hobby of prying into other people's privacy.
I just said, "Then come back soon, there is still work waiting for you and me to deal with."
Shen Qingqing understood the other party's good intentions.
This gave her an excuse to leave if necessary.
The middle-aged woman began to feel uneasy. She moved her lips and whispered, "Qingqing, I'm your aunt. You haven't come back to see me for so many years. Have you forgotten me?"
Shen Qingqing said calmly: "I indeed forgot. If possible, I hope you can treat me as a stranger next time we meet."
"Qingqing, I know you blame my aunt, but I was married at that time, and I couldn't ignore the feelings of my in-laws. My aunt had her own difficulties."
Shen Qingqing frowned, "Don't talk about the past anymore. I'm living a good life now, so you don't need to worry about me."
The person standing opposite became more and more uneasy, and didn't even dare to look Shen Qingqing in the eye.
"Auntie can see that you don't need us now, but blood is thicker than water. Since you're back in Shanghai, can our family have a meal together?"
