Chapter 40: The Wang family is left with nothing left to lose after the King of Tianliang is defeated!
"Zhenzhen! I'm here!" The pure and beautiful girl in a white dress waved her arms to Wang Zhenbao, with a smile on her face so bright that it seemed to glow in the sun.
Wang Zhenbao subconsciously responded with a smile, but soon remembered that the girl was Tao Xiaoyu, so she quickly retracted her smile and walked towards Tao Xiaoyu with a calm expression.
Tao Xiaoyu happily hugged Wang Zhenbao's arm and said with a smile: "Zhenzhen, I knew you wouldn't stand me up. Come on, I saw a dress that looks really nice. It will definitely suit you. Go and try it on!"
Wang Zhenbao was dragged by Tao Xiaoyu to a women's clothing store. As she was dragged, she emphasized, "I'm just too tired from studying recently, and my mother advised me to come out and relax. In addition, my clothes from last year were old, and I wanted to buy new clothes this year, so I came out to buy clothes. I didn't come out to go shopping with you just to accept your invitation!"
Tao Xiaoyu had long been accustomed to her good friend Wang Zhenbao's arrogant behavior of saying one thing and thinking another. She knew that Wang Zhenbao was too embarrassed to admit it, and she did not take Wang Zhenbao's excuse to heart. She said casually, "Yes, yes, Zhenzhen, I know you didn't go out shopping just for me. It really makes me sad."
Tao Xiaoyu knew that Wang Zhenbao was a proud girl, and she did not misunderstand that Wang Zhenbao's excuse was true, but she also made a joke.
Wang Zhenbao was stunned for a moment, thinking that Tao Xiaoyu was really sad. He looked at her face carefully, and was struggling with how to comfort the sad Tao Xiaoyu.
She didn't mean to say that, but she had been in the same class with Tao Xiaoyu for the past three years of high school. Because she insisted on never talking to Tao Xiaoyu during class and self-study, the teacher was particularly confident in them sitting at the same table and never separated them.
She and Tao Xiaoyu were desk mates in high school for three years, and they were always close friends.
During these three years, Wang Zhenbao also discovered that Tao Xiaoyu was completely different from the weak and dodder-like Tao Xiaoyu in her previous life. She was cheerful, confident, generous, sunny, full of vitality, and lively. She was not weak at all. She was a strong girl who could stand up even after falling and bleeding, wipe the blood off her body, and boast to herself, "I'm so awesome that I don't cry even after falling like this."
Gradually, Wang Zhenbao could no longer confuse the Tao Xiaoyu around her with the Tao Xiaoyu around Ling Feng in her previous life. With her half-hearted willingness, she and Tao Xiaoyu became best friends in high school.
It's just that she still has a knot in her heart from her past life, so she is always awkward and arrogant when interacting with Tao Xiaoyu. She says that she is not doing this for Tao Xiaoyu, but in fact, only Tao Xiaoyu can ask her out shopping when she is addicted to doing exercises.
Wang Zhenbao actually cares a lot about Tao Xiaoyu's mood and thoughts, but she will never admit it.
In the women's clothing store, the dress that Tao Xiaoyu liked was really suitable for Wang Zhenbao. The light blue dress did not have too many patterns, and was simple and fashionable. It fit Wang Zhenbao very well with her good figure, making the teenage girl look particularly youthful and beautiful.
Wang Zhenbao also liked the dress very much, so she bought it.
After she bought the dress, she went to help Tao Xiaoyu choose a red dress. She was not comforting her just because Tao Xiaoyu said she was sad. She just wanted to repay her favor. After all, it was Tao Xiaoyu who helped her choose the dress. Since she owed Tao Xiaoyu such a favor, of course she had to repay her.
Tao Xiaoyu didn't think too much about it. When she saw that the red dress Wang Zhenbao brought her was very beautiful, she quickly went to the fitting room to change into it.
This red dress is very slim-fitting. Tao Xiaoyu has a great figure and can fully support herself in this red dress. The bright red color makes her look a lot more mature. She let her hair down from a ponytail and let it fall over her shoulders, making her look a lot more mature and charming.
When Wang Zhenbao saw Tao Xiaoyu like this, she vaguely seemed to see the adult Tao Xiaoyu who followed Ling Feng in her previous life. Her expression suddenly changed, and she stepped forward and said, "Xiaoyu, this skirt doesn't suit you. You are still a student, and you look too mature in it."
Tao Xiaoyu liked it very much: "Zhenzhen, you helped me choose this. I think it suits me very well. It doesn't matter if it's a little mature. Anyway, we are about to graduate from high school. When we go to college, this skirt will be very suitable for us."
Seeing that Tao Xiaoyu really liked the look of the red dress, Wang Zhenbao didn't know how to persuade her anymore, and finally kept silent.
But Wang Zhenbao also deeply realized that even though she had kindness and friendship for the young Tao Xiaoyu, she still had a grudge against the adult Tao Xiaoyu in her previous life. As Tao Xiaoyu grew older and looked more and more like the Tao Xiaoyu in her previous life, her grudge against Tao Xiaoyu grew deeper.
Perhaps, she should stay away from Tao Xiaoyu, and this inappropriate friendship should end.
Although Wang Zhenbao didn't want to include Tao Xiaoyu in the list of her enemies, she couldn't get rid of the grudge against Tao Xiaoyu in her heart, at least not before she successfully took revenge on Ling Feng.
Wang Zhenbao was a little absent-minded because of her own worries, so she hurriedly said goodbye to Tao Xiaoyu and went home after buying clothes, saying that the college entrance examination was approaching and she would go home to review for papers.
After that, no matter how Tao Xiaoyu invited her to go out and play again, she refused on the grounds that she was reviewing for the college entrance examination. For a good student who was about to take the college entrance examination, this was indeed a good reason.
In fact, with Wang Zhenbao's excellent grades, she could be admitted to a key university, but that was not the school Wang Zhenbao wanted to go to, so she did not take the recommendation route, but decided to take the college entrance examination.
Because of the unspeakable thoughts in his heart, Wang Zhenbao did not tell Tao Xiaoyu about his true choice of school.
Her heart was full of indecision and she couldn't make up her mind. Finally, Wang Zhenbao went to her parents for advice.
"Help you find some schools to apply to?" Si Yuan looked at Wang Zhenbao and raised his eyebrows in surprise. "Haven't you already decided?"
Si Yuan, who has been paying close attention to Wang Zhenbao, knows very well that Wang Zhenbao has a very clear plan for his future and has already decided which school to go to and which major to choose.
Therefore, Si Yuan did not interfere with Wang Zhenbao's future plan of choosing a university to apply for.
He was a little surprised why Wang Zhenbao, who had already made plans for the future, came to ask for his and Li Guihua's opinions.
Neither Si Yuan nor Li Guihua are the kind of people who want to control their children. They fully respect their children's own ideas. As parents, they are only responsible for screening their children, not making decisions for them.
Li Guihua had already been informed privately by Si Yuan and learned about Wang Zhenbao's future aspirations from him, so she was also surprised by Wang Zhenbao's sudden change of mind.
Wang Zhenbao didn't expect that her parents had already seen through her thoughts. She lowered her head shyly and said softly, "Well... because I suddenly felt hesitant and didn't know whether my choice was right or not..."
Si Yuan had been keeping an eye on Wang Zhenbao. After a little thought, he guessed why Wang Zhenbao changed his mind. It was probably related to the original heroine Tao Xiaoyu.
Si Yuan didn't care much about the heroine Tao Xiaoyu, because his mission was to let his adopted son/daughter compete with the hero for the father, and the heroine had nothing to do with it.
So even if Tao Xiaoyu is the heroine in the original plot of this world, it has little to do with Si Yuan. He is always concerned about the male protagonist and his son.
Just like the heroine Tan Zhuyue in the previous world, she had little interaction with Si Yuan's family from beginning to end.
The heroine of this world, Tao Xiaoyu, became classmates, deskmates, and even good friends with Wang Zhenbao.
However, Si Yuan felt that it was not a big problem for the heroine to be friends with the supporting actress. It was just that Wang Zhenbao had always been entangled with Tao Xiaoyu because of his memories of his past life. His attitude was often inconsistent, and sometimes he would say hurtful words without thinking.
Si Yuan sometimes thought that Tao Xiaoyu would not be able to tolerate Wang Zhenbao's strange attitude and would choose not to be friends with Wang Zhenbao anymore. He had already thought about how to comfort Wang Zhenbao for losing this friend who took the initiative to come up to him.
Unexpectedly, due to Tao Xiaoyu's one-sided enthusiasm and Wang Zhenbao's awkwardness, their friendship has lasted from the beginning of the first year of high school to now, when the college entrance examination is approaching, and they have never been separated throughout the three years of high school.
Wang Zhenbao’s only concern now is whether or not to separate from Tao Xiaoyu in college.
Si Yuan did not show that he knew about the entanglement between Wang Zhenbao and Tao Xiaoyu. He said meaningfully: "There is no right or wrong in life choices. You may think that the choice you think is right now is the wrong one in the future. In short, just follow your true inner choice. You can consider both possibilities and make a choice based on which one you can accept most. Mom and Dad can't help you walk the future path of life, but Mom and Dad can silently support you behind you..."
Li Guihua also nodded and said seriously: "No matter what school you choose, Zhenbao, mom and dad will support you. Even if you choose a bad school and it is difficult to find a job after graduation, what does it matter? At worst, you can go home and inherit Jueweixuan, and mom and dad can support you for the rest of your life."
Si Yuan looked at Li Guihua speechlessly. No wonder Wang Zhenbao was so naive and useless in his previous life. He was spoiled by his doting parents.
Just look at Li Guihua's current doting attitude and you will know that in the original plot, the original owner doted on her daughter Wang Zhenbao even more than Li Guihua. It is conceivable how much doting Wang Zhenbao received in her previous life. She has not grown up to be a vicious rich girl, which shows that she has upright values.
After her rebirth, Wang Zhenbao no longer had the innocence and simplicity of her previous life, but she was still very surprised to hear her mother's doting words again.
Although she would never reach the point in her life where she couldn't find a job and needed her parents to support her for the rest of her life, she still felt very happy that her parents really had this idea.
With such solid support from parents behind you, what other difficulties can matter?
Wang Zhenbao thought about his four years of college. If he went to the same university as Tao Xiaoyu... If he didn't go to the same school as Tao Xiaoyu, but drifted away from Tao Xiaoyu...
Wang Zhenbao's original idea began to waver. She put herself in the shoes of Tao Xiaoyu during her three years of high school, and couldn't help but think that it wouldn't be a bad idea if she could continue to get along with Tao Xiaoyu like this during her four years of college.
The college entrance examination results came out, and Wang Zhenbao was very lucky to win the top spot in the city's college entrance examination by one point. Her hard work over the years was worth it and finally borne sweet fruit.
Tao Xiaoyu's college entrance examination results were also quite good, and she could choose from major universities across the country.
When filling out the application form, because the school did not have enough computers, students from each class went into the computer room in batches and used the computers in the school computer room to fill out their college applications.
Wang Zhenbao and Tao Xiaoyu entered the computer room to fill out their applications in the same batch.
When filling out her application, she remembered what Tao Xiaoyu had said to her before: "Zhenzhen, where do you plan to study in college? I want to go to Kyoto University, the capital of our country. I'll have enough time to explore the capital in four years of college!"
——"I will probably choose S University and stay in S City to go to college. My family lives in S City."
Kyoto University...Wang Zhenbao hesitated for a moment between S University and Kyoto University, and finally chose Kyoto University.
Having spent two lifetimes in S City, it would be nice to spend four years in Kyoto.
As for seeking revenge on Ling Feng, there is no rush. She can wait until she finishes four years of college, graduates and establishes the Wang Group before taking revenge on Ling Feng. A gentleman's revenge is never too late.
After filling out the application form, Wang Zhenbao submitted it and walked out of the computer room.
At about the same time, Tao Xiaoyu also finished filling out her application form and came out. She patted Wang Zhenbao on the shoulder and asked with a smile, "Zhenzhen, which school did you choose?"
Wang Zhenbao was embarrassed to say that she chose Kyoto University. After all, if Tao Xiaoyu knew that she chose Kyoto University because of her, she would definitely hug her for a long time and say something silly like "Zhenzhen is the best, I love Zhenzhen the most" that would give people goose bumps.
So she said vaguely: "You should know, guess it!"
Tao Xiaoyu smiled and guessed: "I remember you said you wanted to choose S University..."
Because the second group of students who were filling out their applications were about to enter the computer room, Wang Zhenbao and Tao Xiaoyu, who were standing at the door chatting, quickly made way for the door. With this interruption, the two of them forgot to continue communicating about filling out their applications and went home together.
After Wang Zhenbao returned home, she told her parents what she had applied for. Her first choice was Peking University. She did not tell her second choice because there was no need. With her top score in the city's college entrance examination, it would not be difficult for her to get into Peking University. Her first choice was a very safe choice.
"I have always lived in S City and have never lived in other cities for a long time, so I wanted to visit Beijing." Wang Zhenbao used this reason to explain why she applied to Peking University instead of S University, which she had originally chosen.
Si Yuan and Li Guihua didn't care when they learned that Wang Zhenbao had applied to Peking University. Peking University is one of the top universities in the country, slightly better than S University. They were so happy that their daughter chose such a good school.
As for Wang Zhenbao going to Beijing to study at university for four years, what will happen if he is far away from them?
This is not a problem at all. Money can solve most problems. If it can’t solve the problem, it’s probably because there is not enough money.
Although Si Yuan was too lazy to create the Wang Group's catering empire and only guarded Jueweixuan, he did not delay his pace of making money at all, especially buying houses and land.
As the capital of a country, Kyoto has a unique geographical location and is naturally the most prosperous city. With a large population, housing prices are naturally much more expensive and the price of houses increases rapidly.
Therefore, when Si Yuan was hoarding houses, he hoarded a lot of high-quality houses in Kyoto. When Wang Zhenbao went to Kyoto to attend university, he and Li Guihua did not need to go to Kyoto to buy a new house. They could just clean up the house that Si Yuan had invested in before and live in Kyoto.
Since Si Yuan and Li Guihua spent most of their energy and time on taking care of and educating their daughter, they mostly let Jueweixuan go. After all, the rules and regulations had been established long ago, and they just had to let the employees follow them. As the boss and the boss's wife, they would occasionally check the accounts, conduct surprise inspections, and watch the surveillance videos, and that was enough.
So Si Yuan and Li Guihua said to Wang Zhenbao calmly, "When you go to Kyoto to attend university, we will go with you to Kyoto to live for a few years. We also have a house in Kyoto, and maybe we can even open a branch of Jueweixuan in Kyoto."
Si Yuan and Li Guihua have never planned to leave S City, so Jueweixuan has never opened a branch.
Now that they have decided to live in Kyoto with their daughter Wang Zhenbao for four years, four years is enough time for them to open a Jueweixuan restaurant in Kyoto.
Wang Zhenbao thought that she would be separated from her parents for four years after choosing Kyoto University. Unexpectedly, her parents said that they wanted to live in Kyoto with her for four years. She was overjoyed: "That's great! I thought I would be separated from my parents!"
As a daddy's girl and a mama's girl, Wang Zhenbao really doesn't want to be separated from her parents for too long. Fortunately, communication and transportation are very convenient nowadays. If they really couldn't see each other for four years, Wang Zhenbao would definitely not choose a school far away from home.
Si Yuan smiled and said, "There's no rush to report to the university. Your mom and I will take you on a trip first. It's a rare summer vacation where you don't have homework to worry about. Let's go on a trip around the country as a family."
Wang Zhenbao clapped his hands excitedly: "Great, great, let's go on a trip around the country as a family of three!"
Although Wang Zhenbao was obsessed with studying and seldom traveled in his life, even if he went, he would only go for a few days and come back, or he would go and come back on the same day. There was no fun in traveling for a long time.
But she traveled a lot in her previous life. Not only around the country, she had even traveled around the world several times.
It’s just that her parents are always too busy to travel with her, so she always goes alone or asks others to go with her.
This is Wang Zhenbao’s first time to travel around the country with her parents, so she is particularly excited.
Si Yuan is a person who likes to make perfect plans when doing things, so after he proposed a family trip and it was passed unanimously, he made a very detailed travel guide and sent it to the family group for Li Guihua and Wang Zhenbao to review.
Wang Zhenbao looked at the extremely detailed travel guide his father had drawn up. If you didn’t know better, you would think it was a script. Even the time of arrival and the time of visiting which attractions were all planned out.
If they follow their father's travel guide, she and her mother don't have to think at all, they can just do it without thinking.
Wang Zhenbao was reading the travel guide and learning at the same time: "You are worthy of being my father. This guide is so detailed and well written."
After contacting Tao Xiaoyu, Wang Zhenbao learned that Tao Xiaoyu and her family of three were also going out for a trip, so the two of them decided not to disturb each other and agreed to bring each other local specialties as gifts after returning from the trip.
Wang Zhenbao temporarily put aside his studies and the hatred in his heart, and followed his parents to travel around the country's tourist attractions. He had a lot of fun and felt very relaxed.
In fact, if you are willing to spend money, traveling can be a very relaxing thing, especially when someone has prepared a detailed travel guide for you and you only need to follow it without thinking, which can make you even more relaxed.
This high school graduation trip is a memory that Wang Zhenbao will never forget in both his lifetimes.
The three of them played until two days before the university was about to start, then they returned home, packed Wang Zhenbao's things and went to report to Kyoto University.
After Wang Zhenbao returned home, Tao Xiaoyu, who had finished her graduation trip earlier than her, happily came to see her: "Zhenzhen, let's go to S University to report together!"
Wang Zhenbao was stunned when he heard Tao Xiaoyu's words: "Go to S University to report?"
Tao Xiaoyu smiled and said, "Yes, because I want to go to the same university as you, so I applied to S University just like you did, so we can go to school together in the future!"
Wang Zhenbao was speechless for a long while. She didn't expect that she finally came to her senses and decided to maintain her friendship with Tao Xiaoyu. She took the initiative to get close to Tao Xiaoyu and gave up the S University she wanted to attend before and chose the Beijing University that Tao Xiaoyu wanted to apply for. Unexpectedly, the result...
Tao Xiaoyu looked at Wang Zhenbao's expression, and the smile on her face gradually faded. She had a bad feeling in her heart: "Zhenzhen, what's wrong with you?"
Wang Zhenbao smiled bitterly and said, "I originally wanted to give you a surprise..." She took out her admission letter from Peking University.
When Tao Xiaoyu saw the admission letter from Peking University in Wang Zhenbao's hand, she was both surprised and depressed.
She was surprised that Wang Zhenbao, who had always been arrogant and would not take the initiative to approach her, actually gave up his original choice in such an important matter as filling out university applications, took the initiative to approach her, and chose Peking University, which she had once said she wanted to go to; she was depressed that both of them wanted to give each other a surprise and did not tell each other that they had filled out the other's applications, but in the end they missed each other and still could not go to the same school.
Although Tao Xiaoyu was depressed, she was still more surprised. During the three years of high school, she had always been the one who took the initiative to chase after Wang Zhenbao. She always felt that Wang Zhenbao either didn't care about her, or there seemed to be something between them, which made her feel that their friendship was a little unstable.
But now that she saw that Wang Zhenbao was willing to give up his dream university, S University, and choose the Peking University she mentioned, she was still very excited. She reached out and hugged Wang Zhenbao, saying happily: "Although I still missed Zhenzhen and couldn't go to the same university, but Zhenzhen wanted to go to Peking University with me, I'm really happy, really, really happy!"
Wang Zhenbao hesitated for a moment, but still raised her hand to hug Tao Xiaoyu back. She felt embarrassed, so she quickly pushed Tao Xiaoyu away after hugging her for a moment, saying awkwardly, "You're so disgusting!"
