Qu Zhiyang jumped up excitedly, "Great! We can still be alumni then."
Xue Lingxue couldn't help but pour a bucket of cold water on him, "You talk as if you can take the exam if you want to. We may not be able to get in even if we want to!"
Chen Xinyue quickly turned around and comforted him, "It's hard to say for others, but you're studying art, and your academic performance is so good, you'll definitely be able to get in."
"My academic performance is not as good as yours." Xue Lingxue glanced at Chen Ruiyu inconspicuously and took a bite of the burger as if nothing had happened.
Qu Zhiyang agreed deeply and pointed at Chen Ruiyu indignantly, "What kind of freak are you? You always rank first in the grade in every exam. I've never seen you fall behind! The same goes for sister Xinyue. How did she do well in the exams? She's always in the top ten in the grade.
My mom even said she wants to go to your house and learn from your parents!"
When Xue Lingxue heard that they were going to Chen Ruiyu's house, she immediately grabbed Chen Xinyue and said aggrievedly: "Xinyue, we have been deskmates for two years, and it will be three years soon. I haven't been to your house yet!"
Chen Xinyue rolled her eyes, "Haven't I been to your house either?"
Xue Lingxue paused, her lips pouting.
It's not that she didn't allow Chen Xinyue to come to her home, but her family's situation was special and the security where she lived was strict. Her parents were worried that she might be in danger and never allowed her to reveal any family background to anyone, so she had no way to invite classmates to her home.
Chen Xinyue's heart softened when she saw her pitiful appearance. "Okay, okay! I was just kidding. It's just the same for everyone. We have to go to school from Monday to Friday. You have to take art classes on weekends. My brother has to go to the rehabilitation center for training. I also have to go to school. I have to do homework the rest of the time. How can I be free? How about we make an appointment during the winter vacation?"
Last year, a new rehabilitation hospital was established in Anshi. I heard that it was opened by returned overseas Chinese, and all the rehabilitation facilities inside were imported.
When Lin Qin received the news, she signed up Chen Ruiyu immediately. From then on, Chen Ruiyu had to report to the rehabilitation institution every weekend.
I have to exercise every day after I come back.
Everyone was skeptical at first, but after a year, they found that Chen Ruiyu's physical condition had indeed improved a lot, and the whole family watched him go to class, rain or shine.
Xue Lingxue immediately nodded happily.
When Qu Zhiyang saw it, he also clamored to go together.
Chen Ruiyu rolled his eyes but didn't refuse.
The four of them played in the park until it was almost dark and then they separated.
Chen Ruiyu and Chen Xinyue walked together, while Qu Zhiyang and Xue Lingxue went the same way.
The dim street lights stretched the two people's shadows out.
Qu Zhiyang, who had just been smiling, spoke seriously for the first time. "Xue Lingxue, the way you looked at Ruiyu just now was not right. Tell me the truth, do you like him?"
Xue Lingxue blushed, feeling embarrassed as if her secret had been exposed. She glared at him angrily, "What nonsense! I just admire him."
Qu Zhiyang retracted his gaze and continued to look at the road ahead. "It would be best if you knew your family situation yourself. Although I don't know my brother's family background, you two are definitely not the same kind of people. Don't worry about my brother. Study hard and go abroad for further studies in the future. That's the path you should take."
It's not that he likes to meddle in other people's business, but his family has some relatives relationship with the Xue family, and the two families are old friends. He doesn't want Xue Lingxue to have unrealistic dreams, and he also doesn't want Chen Ruiyu to be affected.
Xue Lingxue felt very sad and her eyes gradually turned red. She tried hard not to cry and ignored Qu Zhiyang stubbornly.
Wait until you get home.
Xue's mother originally wanted to scold her daughter for coming home late, but when she saw that it was Qu Zhiyang who brought her back, her expression instantly eased, "Where did you go?"
Xue Lingxue replied gloomily, "I saved ten dollars and bought a hamburger and a Coke, and went to the park with my classmates."
Xue's mother raised an eyebrow, "Not having fun?"
Xue Lingxue shook her head, "No, the study pressure in the third year of junior high school is high and there are a lot of homework. I will go back to my room first."
Xue's mother still felt strange and couldn't understand it, so she paid special attention to her daughter for two more days. She found that her daughter was still the same as before, doing what she was supposed to do, and there was nothing unusual.
She breathed a sigh of relief and took the time to discuss going abroad with Xue Lingxue. "What your father and I mean is that we won't take the domestic college entrance examination. We will go directly to a foreign university and come back after graduation."
The couple has already paved the way for their daughter's future. As long as she follows their plan, her daughter will definitely have a smooth life.
If it were in the past, Xue Lingxue would have nodded without hesitation, but this time, she suddenly felt a little unwilling and aggrieved, "Can't I decide for myself?"
Xue's mother was stunned for a moment, then her face darkened. "Lingxue, your father and I have carefully considered the decisions we made. Be good and listen to me. Don't be willful."
Xue Lingxue's tears suddenly fell, which scared her mother. She quickly softened her tone and tried to persuade her in a gentle manner for a long time.
After comforting her daughter, she contacted Qu Zhiyang and asked what happened on Friday.
Qu Zhiyang couldn't just express his guesses and say he didn't know.
After hanging up the phone, Qu's mother Yang Caifeng scolded him severely, "What's going on?"
Qu Zhiyang held his head in grievance, "Mom! What happened? I really don't know!"
"You still dare to quibble! If there is no problem, why would your Aunt Zhou call you to ask? I think you won't cry until you see the coffin!" Yang Caifeng pretended to attack again.
Qu Zhiyang quickly slipped away.
Seeing her son's agile movements, Yang Caifeng realized that she could not catch up with him. She cursed angrily, turned around, picked up her bag and went to work.
When I arrived at the office, I saw Lin Qin eating snacks and giving a report there.
Yang Caifeng came over, sniffed it, and said greedily, "Another delicious treat!"
Lin Qin looked up, took a piece and handed it over, "This is the honey cake made by the chef in my dessert shop. It tastes pretty good."
Yang Caifeng looked envious, "That's great! I just can't understand how you have so much energy to do so many things! I'm exhausted just from working and taking care of the kids at home."
Lin Qin rarely talked about family with her colleagues, and rarely took the initiative to inquire about other people's private affairs. When she heard this, she just nodded in agreement, "Taking care of children does take a lot of energy, but fortunately, the children are grown up now, so I don't need to worry too much."
"Who said that! My son is already in the third year of junior high school and still doesn't know what to do. He is tall and strong, half a head taller than me. I can never catch up with him, and I can never win by scolding him. He sulks there every day, and it makes me upset just to see him."
Yang Caifeng thought of that rascal Qu Zhiyang and got angry again.
Lin Qin quickly made her a cup of tea. "Cool down. Don't be too serious in this hot weather. The director just said that there will be a meeting soon."
Upon hearing this, Yang Caifeng quickly returned to her workstation to prepare.
Lin Qin was busy at work until six o'clock before leaving get off work.
When I got home, Chen Wenjun was also back.
At the dinner table, Chen Wenjun talked about business matters. "The hilltop we leased is no longer sufficient. Today I went to see the village chief and leased the hilltop next to it. The price remains the same. We have to hire people to clean up the hilltop in the next few days, and we also have to buy chicks."
That means it's happening again! (End of this chapter)
