Chapter 357 You got it right!
On the morning of the fourth day of the Lunar New Year, Shen Xuewei received a special phone call. In the afternoon, she brought the increasingly clingy Chu Dexi to a quiet little restaurant in the county.
"haven't seen you for a long time."
After taking her seat, Shen Xuewei greeted the person opposite her with a smile.
The person opposite her, whose round face Shen Xuewei remembered had become thinner.
Perhaps due to worsening nearsightedness, he wore black-rimmed glasses, making him appear more gentle and composed than when he was in school.
Upon seeing Shen Xuewei, a familiar smile bloomed on her face, and she reached out to pat Shen Xuewei's shoulder.
"It really has been a long time. You look quite different. How have you been doing these past three years studying in Shanghai?"
Shen Xuewei nodded and handed her phone to the lively and active Chu Dexi beside her, telling Chu Dexi not to disturb her and Ren Qinan's reunion.
"I'm doing alright."
She didn't ask him how his three years of university had been.
After all, she had heard about the other party's affairs, even though she was far away in Shanghai.
While exchanging pleasantries, the waiter came over, served the food, and left.
"You never came to our previous class reunions, so it's rare for you to invite me out for a meal. Don't you have anything else to say to me?"
Shen Xuewei graduated from high school more than three years ago, and during that time, her high school class group had already organized two reunions.
Everyone's university is located in different parts of the country, some very far away, others in the same city, making it difficult to schedule time for everyone.
The best time to gather everyone together is during the Lunar New Year period.
Of the two class reunions, Shen Xuewei attended only one, while Ren Qinan attended neither.
After they went to university, the two kept in touch, but never met again.
This was the first time we met since I went to the school to pick up my admission letter.
Although they hadn't seen each other for more than three years, they had kept in touch online, so when they met in person, they were as familiar with each other as before.
Ren Qinan smiled upon hearing this, a hint of nostalgia in his eyes.
"I do have some good news to share with you, and I also want to see you again."
After all, if we don't meet this time, we may never have the chance to meet again.
She looked relaxed, and a pleasant smile played on her lips.
"Weiwei, do you remember what I told you before about what I wanted to do?"
Looking at her radiant appearance, Shen Xuewei vaguely guessed what had happened.
"I'm going abroad! I've never been so happy before. I've been preparing for this day for a long time, and now it's finally here."
She paid a heavy price to get this opportunity to study abroad.
Once I can leave, I will never come back.
"Congratulations."
Shen Xuewei was genuinely happy for the other person.
Ren Qinan had wanted to leave for a long time; she had waited for this opportunity for many years, and now it could finally come true.
Ren Qinan smiled and smiled, but tears streamed down her face uncontrollably.
She once thought that as long as she could get into university, she could be temporarily liberated.
But no, on the contrary, her mother haunted her like a persistent ghost, using the pretext of going to the capital to take care of her, and made a mess of her university life.
She didn't understand before, but when she did, she learned to act obediently and cater to them to lower their guard.
She was responsible for everything her mother did in the capital, from clothing and food to accommodation and daily necessities.
Under the guise of taking care of her, they were actually monitoring her. Even if her father and brother stayed in their hometown, they could easily learn about her every move from her mother.
She endured for three years, finally saving up a small amount of money, and finally earned herself an opportunity.
Shen Xuewei took out a tissue and gave it to her. She took it and gently wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes.
Once she calmed down, Shen Xuewei asked, "Have you decided where to go?"
Ren Qinan trusted Shen Xuewei and had no intention of hiding anything from her.
"Yes, it's settled. I'll be a one-year exchange student at the University of Munich in Germany. However, I'll try to stay in Germany to continue my studies afterward..."
She talked about her plans, which suggested she had already made preparations.
Today, taking advantage of the moment when her family was relaxed, she came out to see Shen Xuewei. After that, she will never go back to that home.
By the time they realized what was happening, she should already be on a plane to Germany.
The two chatted for a while, then left the restaurant and strolled along the street before heading towards the bus station.
As the two parted ways at the bus station, Shen Xuewei called out to Ren Qinan, who was turning around to get on the bus.
"Here, have this. I wish you all the best in Germany."
Ren Qinan hesitated as he looked at the envelope Shen Xuewei handed him.
Shen Xuewei smiled.
"Take it as a gift. Don't feel guilty. You know this little bit of money is nothing to me."
Inside the envelope was the 20,000 yuan she had withdrawn from the bank under the pretext of going to the restroom.
As she said, this amount of money was nothing to her.
However, with these 20,000 yuan, Ren Qinan could finally breathe a little easier and avoid too much financial pressure.
No matter how hard a college student, even one from Peking University, works, they won't earn much money if they haven't graduated yet.
What's more, Ren Qinan had a child with him while he was in college.
The amount of money that can be saved is even less.
Ren Qinan smiled gratefully at Shen Xuewei and did not refuse.
"Weiwei, thank you."
She did manage to save tens of thousands of yuan during her university years, but that was far from enough to cover her expenses for studying abroad.
Shen Xuewei's 20,000 yuan was a lifesaver for her.
In any case, having money on hand is always a good thing, and it's never a bad idea to have extra money on hand.
The two got into their respective cars and drove in opposite directions.
Shen Xuewei had work commitments, so she packed her bags and left on the seventh day of the Lunar New Year.
She usually leaves before the start of the school year, but this time she left exceptionally early.
Chen Fangli was a little reluctant to part with him, but after hearing from Shen Xuewei that this trip was for work and giving her a few words of advice, she asked Chu Fu to take her to the airport.
After playing with his friends in the village, Chu Dexi returned home and heard his older brother tell him that Shen Xuewei had just left. He immediately felt like the sky had fallen.
Shen Xuewei boarded a plane at noon. The plane flew to the capital airport, and by the time it landed, it was already dark.
She found a nearby hotel and stayed there for the night.
Sitting on the hotel bed, she called Xu Yue.
As soon as the call connected, she said mysteriously, "Ah Yue, guess where I am right now?"
How could Xu Yue not know her?
She scoffed, "Don't try to fool me. Where else would you be if you're not home?"
Shen Xuewei shook her head. "No, guess again."
Xu Yue felt sleepy, but she forced her eyelids open. "Not at home...not at home, then you must be at school. Strange, why are you back at school so soon?"
Shen Xuewei's voice came from the other end of the phone, "It's still not right."
Xu Yue rolled her eyes, turned over and pulled the blanket tighter around herself. "Where else could it be? In the capital, of course!"
Bingo!
"Congratulations, beautiful lady, you got it right!"
