"You just stay at home all day long and don't know how to study hard. What's the point of giving birth to you and raising you?"
"If you don't get into a good university, you'll have to go out and find a job after graduation, and you won't be able to support me."
Seventeen-year-old Chu Xinnuo heard this sentence the most every day. She wanted to refute it, but found that she couldn't refute it at all.
She has been disliked by her parents since she was a child. If it weren't for the blood relationship and her parents' conscience, she would not have lived to this age.
Therefore, it is almost impossible to not be rebellious in this kind of atmosphere.
But Chu Xinnuo is still studying very hard. She wants to go to a better university so that she can stay away from her parents in the future so that they won’t be upset when they see her.
However, all her efforts were in vain because she still did not rank high in the final exam of the first half of her senior year.
To the point that later on, Chu Xinnuo could no longer remember how many points he had gotten in the last exam, and perhaps he even almost forgot his own name.
I spend day after day in the Internet cafe and don’t want to go back to that so-called home at all.
But she didn't want to live with others for fear of gossip.
So, even if I occasionally go home, I will not talk to them, and their bad words always go in one ear and out the other.
Until Kong Yu appeared.
She had just walked out of an Internet cafe and was about to take a taxi home when she was suddenly stopped by someone.
Kong Yu was quite big at that time, so Chu Xinnuo looked a little petite in comparison.
She stood on the side of the road, looking at the boy standing in front of her, her face calm as water, without showing any panic.
"Hello, my name is Kong Yu. May I ask..." Kong Yu stretched out his hand and spoke politely.
Chu Xinnuo narrowed her eyes slightly, her gaze fell on Kong Yu's hands holding hers, and then she moved away indifferently, "Sorry, I don't want to play with my phone."
She knew very well that the other party was trying to add her contact information. She had encountered this situation countless times, so she had already developed the temperament of remaining calm even when faced with a catastrophe.
Kong Yu was stunned for a moment, as if he had not expected such a situation at all.
He took his hand back and scratched his head awkwardly, "Sorry, we'll see each other again next time we have the chance."
In fact, Kong Yu had seen this way of chatting up people on TV. It was normal for him to fail the first time, but he still felt unwilling to accept it.
Chu Xinnuo didn't respond and just turned and left.
Later, they didn't expect that the world is so small. They met again in an Internet cafe. Kong Yu took the initiative to hand over his contact information, and this time, Chu Xinnuo did not refuse.
After that, the two of them started adding each other as friends, and after a few interactions, they became much more familiar with each other.
Kong Yu comes from a well-off family, but because her parents are divorced, she lives in a single-parent family.
Chu Xinnuo, who didn't know it at first, revealed all the sad things that she had hidden in her heart for a long time to Kong Yu during an argument.
But that time, Kong Yu's first reaction was not to comfort him, but to look depressed. After a long while, he finally said what he wanted to say: "I understand how you feel now, but I really don't know what this situation is like. I don't have a father."
"Although my parents are divorced, my mother loves me. I have never seen the shadow of my father in all these years."
"I know that such a family can easily make children suffer. When I was a child, I also fantasized about having a father. Your situation is completely different from mine. You have encountered a family ideology that favors boys over girls, and..."
Chu Xinnuo listened to his comfort and felt inexplicably relieved. It turned out that there was someone who understood her.
"Besides, you are a girl, and you are much more sensitive than boys. I don't know how to comfort you, but I just don't want you to be sad..."
"Thank you, I'm not sad, and you don't have to worry about me. I'm not as fragile as you think." Chu Xinnuo looked up at him, a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and his tone became softer.
She grew up alone, so these were all very simple things.
"It's okay, we are all friends. I should be considered your friend, right?" Kong Yu grinned with a bright smile.
"Yeah!"
The two chatted for the entire evening. Chu Xinnuo had a very good impression of him. Influenced by her family background, she would naturally not avoid getting along with others because of her appearance. Not only that, she didn't think Kong Yu was ugly at all. On the contrary, he was white and plump and very cute.
Kong Yu also admired Chu Xinnuo very much. Although Chu Xinnuo's grades were average, she always exuded a warm aura like the sun, which made people unable to help but get close to her.
"We have to go to school tomorrow. How about I ask you out for dinner on the weekend?" Chu Xinnuo suggested.
"Sure, I'll wait for your call." Kong Yu agreed readily.
"It's settled then."
"OK!"
The two exchanged phone numbers and Chu Xinnuo left first.
Early the next morning, Chu Xinnuo, carrying her schoolbag, walked slowly towards the classroom at her morning jogging pace.
During this period, Chu Xinnuo, in addition to attending classes, worked part-time outside to earn a living. He did not dare to be lazy at all. After all, if he counted on his family for living expenses, he would probably be scolded and complained about.
She now only hopes that one day, her grades will be able to stay at the top of the class. Then her family’s attitude will be much better and they will not take it out on her all day long.
"Chu Xinnuo."
Just as Chu Xinnuo was immersed in her own thoughts, a voice calling her came from the side.
Chu Xinnuo came to her senses and Kong Yu appeared beside her.
"What a coincidence! I didn't expect you were also in this school?" Chu Xinnuo looked at him in surprise. She didn't expect to meet Kong Yu at school.
"Yes, this school is closer to my home, so I went to this school."
"Yeah." Chu Xinnuo nodded, "Then let's go to school together in the future?"
"Okay, let's go to school together. I really like going with you."
Hearing this, Chu Xinnuo blushed and felt the feeling of being noticed for the first time.
Kong Yu is a very talkative person, and Chu Xinnuo gradually got used to his topics.
The weekend came quickly.
It was also time for the two to have dinner as agreed. Chu Xinnuo put on makeup, wore a black skirt, and tied her hair into a ponytail. She looked young and beautiful.
When they arrived at the agreed place, Chu Xinnuo just got off the car and saw Kong Yu getting out of another car.
"Nono, here, here!" Kong Yu waved at her with an excited smile on his face.
Chu Xinnuo waved at him and walked over, "Sorry, I'm late."
"No, I arrived early on my own." Kong Yu pulled her to the destination.
In the restaurant, the waiter led the two to sit down. Chu Xinnuo looked around and asked, "Are we the only two here today?"
"Yes, it's just the two of us. Don't worry, I've ordered a lot of delicious dishes for you. I guarantee you'll be full!" Kong Yu smiled, looking like a wealthy man.
“Is it expensive here…?”
Chu Xinnuo, who usually looks fearless, showed cowardice in front of Kong Yu for the first time, fearing that he didn't bring enough money.
"Don't worry, it's no problem. Today is my treat, so you can eat as much as you want."
"No, half each."
"Okay, I'll listen to you." Kong Yu agreed readily and looked at her lovingly.
The two of them were eating delicious food in a harmonious atmosphere until Kong Yu suddenly asked Chu Xinnuo, "Nonuo, do you have someone you like?"
Chu Xinnuo was stunned and shook her head, "No."
"I think you are pretty and have a good personality. There will definitely be a boy who likes you."
Chu Xinnuo lowered her head, pursed her lips and smiled, "Are you sure I have a good personality?"
She was usually moody and didn't even know when she lost her temper. This was the first time she heard someone praise her for having a good temper.
Kong Yu smiled and nodded, "Of course, who wouldn't like a cute girl like you?"
Chu Xinnuo felt a little bitter when she heard this, "Actually, I don't have a very good personality, so please don't like me."
Her shy look amused Kong Yu.
"What if I like you?"
"It's okay. We will be separated in the future." Chu Xinnuo sighed, "My parents are just that kind of people. No one wants to face them."
"well……"
Chu Xinnuo smiled and did not continue the topic. She changed the subject, "You will definitely meet a better girl in the future."
"I think meeting you is enough."
Chu Xinnuo was stunned for a moment, then chuckled, "You have such a sweet mouth."
"How could that be?" Kong Yu curled his lips, "I'm telling the truth."
Chu Xinnuo shrugged, expressing his disbelief. "Okay, hurry up and eat. It won't taste good if it gets cold."
Kong Yu nodded and worked hard.
Chu Xinnuo took a sip of water and looked out the window. In the distance, there was a family of three. The parents doted on their daughter very much, which made her very envious.
"Why are you crying?" Kong Yu's voice suddenly sounded in my ears.
Chu Xinnuo hurriedly wiped away her tears and said, "It's okay, I just didn't sleep well last night."
"Then you should take a rest." Kong Yu handed her a tissue.
"Thank you." Chu Xinnuo took the tissue, but found that Kong Yu was staring at her profile in a daze.
"What's wrong?" Chu Xinnuo was puzzled. She turned her head and looked at him, but her eyes met his deep pupils.
Kong Yu seemed frightened and quickly looked away. "Nothing, I just think you are really beautiful. You are the most beautiful girl I have ever seen."
His eyes were extremely clear, without any blasphemous intent, which made Chu Xinnuo feel relieved.
Chu Xinnuo smiled and said, "Let's be together."
"Ahem..." Kong Yu almost choked and looked up at her, "What did you say?"
"You heard me right. I meant, let's be together!" Chu Xinnuo repeated with a firm tone.
Kong Yu widened his eyes and looked at Chu Xinnuo in disbelief: "Are you serious?"
"You can try. I'm telling you I like you now. Do you believe me?"
"No."
"That's why I said we should take it slow." Chu Xinnuo smiled, "Anyway, you're my only friend, and love is one thing, so we might as well improve our relationship.
Chu Xinnuo has a very straightforward personality. She doesn't like beating around the bush. If she likes something, she likes it; if she hates something, she hates it.
Kong Yu was amused by her and felt happy instantly, "Okay, then we'll see how it goes.
So at that time, Kong Yu felt that falling in love was not as difficult as she had thought. On the contrary, it was somewhat simple.
Having said that, he doted on Chu Xinnuo very much and was already aware of her family background, so he naturally held Chu Xinnuo in the palm of his hand.
He buys her breakfast every day.
They both took turns to pay the bill. When it was Kong Yu's turn to pay, he would usually pick the cheap breakfast items. When it was his turn to pay, he would specifically pick some delicious and expensive ones, for fear that the other party would not be full.
Chu Xinnuo has always known about this, but she didn't expose it. She just deliberately chose some cheap ones because she knew he did it to take care of her self-esteem.
Chu Xinnuo lacked parental love since childhood, so she knew how to cherish. She remembered all these little details and actions in her heart.
She secretly vowed that she would marry Kong Yu in the future and give him all the happiness.
However, things are unpredictable. Who could have thought that after she had finally finished the college entrance examination, her cell phone would be confiscated and she would be taken back to her hometown by her parents to help with work, and she would never be able to contact Kong Yu again.
The only thing we can do is wait.
Chu Xinnuo worked in a remote village for the entire summer vacation.
Her parents also knew how important the mobile phone was to her. Plus, she didn't have much money, so they naturally chose to stay at home.
The only thing I’m worried about is whether Kong Yu will panic when he can’t contact me.
She couldn't think too much about it. If her parents found out that she was in a relationship, it would probably affect her future in college, right?
After all, in their eyes, they didn't like her in the first place, and if they could get a dowry by marrying her off, it would be like squeezing out the last bit of her available value.
Chu Xinnuo took a deep breath and cleared away all the mess in her mind, hoping that the summer vacation would pass quickly.
In that case, she would be able to see Kong Yu again when she went to university.
As for Kong Yu, after failing to contact the other party, he became very panicked and even looked for many reasons on the Internet.
The most common reply is: Bro, you’ve been dumped.
No one would disappear for such a long time without any reason. If you really like someone, you will definitely find various ways to contact them.
If it were a normal family, these would certainly apply, but for Chu Xinnuo's special case, it obviously became a problem.
She didn't dare to contact him, fearing that her parents would find out and completely sever their relationship, which would be a real loss.
That’s why I thought I would explain it after I go to university.
But during this period of time, you have to bear with the other party a little.
…
Kong Yu was sitting uneasy in the room. He believed Chu Xinnuo, but the replies on the Internet made him waver. Finally, he chose to call Lin Xinyu.
The other party only told him one word: wait.
Everything else is just unnecessary distraction and you don’t need to take it to heart.
Lin Xinyu's words made Kong Yu feel a little relieved. As long as he waited patiently, he would know the result.
What's more, based on the time he has spent with Chu Xinnuo, although the other party is more proactive, that is just her bold personality.
Logically speaking, if there was a problem, she would definitely tell you at the first moment.
I guess it has something to do with my family.
bother……
