An An could only comfort Chen Pingping: "Don't think too much about it. Why don't you wait for Zhang Tengfei to calm down? Maybe, like you said, Zhang Tengfei is in a bad mood, so he is thinking about these negative results."
Chen Pingping was still sad: "He was in a bad mood, and I gave in to him."
An An thought of something: "Actually, what Zhang Tengfei said is not wrong. Your two families are not from the same place. If you can't be assigned to the same place for work in the future, will you go home or visit him during your one-year vacation?"
Chen Pingping was silent for a long while. "Aren't there many people who live in different places? We can always solve it in the end. At worst, I can change my job early and go to where he is."
An An shook her head: "Although I don't understand, I think it's wrong to give up the future for love."
Then he pulled Chen Pingping's arm and said, "Let's go. Don't think about it for now. Go back and rest. Tomorrow is a new day. And tomorrow we can continue to look for Zhang Tengfei. Maybe he will change his mind tomorrow."
Chen Pingping was comforted by An An's words, and she also felt that it was impossible for her and Zhang Tengfei to be no longer related. They had a good chat before, and although they did not have overly intimate behavior, they had the same values, many topics, and interests. Every time they met secretly, they had endless topics to talk about.
How can we just separate like that?
An An took Chen Pingping back home, watched her wash up, and pushed her to bed. During the holidays, the lights would be turned off later.
Chen Pingping lay in bed unable to fall asleep, tossing and turning, and finally got up and quietly asked An An: "An An, are you asleep?"
An An hummed: "Not yet, what's wrong?"
Chen Pingping sat up and said, "I want to ask you, what would you do if you were in my situation? If, I mean if, you and Wen Zheng were together and faced the possibility of not being assigned to the same place, what would you do?"
An An didn't hesitate: "Ping Ping, have you forgotten that Wen Zheng lives in my house? So no matter where we are assigned, we only have one home."
Chen Pingping was a little envious: "How could I forget about this? You guys are the best. Then An An, will you be with Wen Zheng?"
An An also sat up and hugged her knees: "I don't know, but we are still young, so let's study first."
Chen Pingping couldn't believe it: "An An, sometimes I wonder if you are two years younger than me. Your idea is really mature. And how can you bear it?"
An An didn't know how she could hold back, and subconsciously she felt that she had more important things to do.
"My mother always told me that I should do what I should do at my age."
Chen Pingping sighed: "Your mother is really nice. My mother is also very nice, but she is uneducated and can't explain many truths to me or guide me."
An An comforted her: "Anyway, don't think too much. There will be a solution to any problem."
Chen Pingping nodded: "Well, An An, tomorrow, you will accompany me to find Zhang Tengfei. If I go to see him too often alone, people will misunderstand me."
An An had nothing to do tomorrow, so she nodded in agreement.
The next morning, An An accompanied Chen Pingping to find Zhang Tengfei and made an appointment to meet at the playground behind the boys' dormitory.
Zhang Tengfei came out quickly and saw that Chen Pingping had a look of discomfort on his face. He came over and pursed his lips without saying a word.
An An looked at the plain-looking boy in front of her and felt a little puzzled. He was not outstanding at all and she felt that he was not worthy of her daughter Ping Ping.
Chen Pingping felt a little aggrieved when she saw Zhang Tengfei, but she tried her best not to cry: "Zhang Tengfei, was everything you said yesterday true?"
Zhang Tengfei glanced at An An guiltily, then looked at Chen Pingping: "I have thought about it carefully, and our priority right now is studying. It is too early to consider these things now. If I keep delaying and not telling you, I will delay you."
"After these few days of careful consideration, I know that you are a good girl. I can't let my selfishness hold you back. You are the only child in your family, so you should also think more about your parents."
Chen Pingping could hardly hold back her tears: "What if I say that I can choose to change my job? We don't have to be separated. I can go to where you are, and we can bring our parents over later."
Zhang Tengfei frowned: "You are too naive. Both your parents and I are farmers. If we leave the two acres of land at home, what will they eat? Can we support them with just our wages?"
Chen Pingping bit her lower lip tightly, stared at Zhang Tengfei, and forced herself to calm down: "Do you mean to break up?"
Zhang Tengfei said seriously: "I'm sorry, I can't be so selfish and delay you."
Chen Pingping wanted to speak, but she heard a girl not far away call out: "Zhang Tengfei."
An An and Chen Pingping heard the voice, turned around and saw a girl in a plaid skirt with long hair loose, waving at Zhang Tengfei.
Zhang Tengfei's face flashed with embarrassment, and he stuttered a little: "Sorry, I'll...go first, my cousin is coming over."
Then he ran towards the girl.
Chen Pingping frowned and watched Zhang Tengfei walk up to the girl. It was unknown what he said. The girl smiled and punched Zhang Tengfei, and the two left side by side.
I was very confused: "How come Zhang Tengfei has a cousin here? When did his cousin come? How come I didn't know?"
An An saw that Zhang Tengfei seemed to be very cautious when facing that girl. She wondered if she had seen it wrong. Would he be like this to his own cousin?
Just imagine that when Tangtang and Hengheng saw her, they wanted to rush over to her. When Tangtang and Hengheng saw Zhouzhou and Momo, they also rushed over to hug them and make a fuss. If they were cousins, it seemed a little strange.
After thinking for a while, he pulled Chen Pingping and said, "Let's go back."
Chen Pingping went back with An An full of doubts.
In the afternoon, An An and Wen Zheng went out to buy some food for tomorrow's trip. Bread, instant noodles and pickled mustard tuber were not enough. An An wanted to buy some roast chicken and cooked food.
Both of them changed into casual clothes and went out. They first took the bus to Zhonghua Street, where there were many snack shops.
An An was still thinking: "We will definitely go visit those uncles and aunts when we get back. I'll see if there are any specialties I can buy for them."
Wen Zheng had no objection: "There's enough time, you can buy whatever you want."
An An looked around but didn't find what she wanted to buy, but she saw Zhang Tengfei and the girl in the plaid skirt together.
The smile on Zhang Tengfei's face was flattering, and the girl was smiling the whole time.
An An frowned: "Wen Zheng, do you know that Zhang Tengfei?"
