Chapter 279: Going to Sichuan and Chongqing for National Day
“Student Shen, I’m going to the library to work part-time this afternoon. Do you want to go with me?”
Ye Ningyu's voice was soft, with a questioning tone.
After spending these days together, she felt that Shen Lexi was also a very good friend, and her personality was very similar to Lu Xi.
He took good care of her in all matters.
Even Shen Lexi got the affirmation from Lu Xi, who felt that Shen Lexi was indeed a very good girl and it was really nice to play with her.
Even though her family is well-off, she does not deliberately elevate her status. This kind of character is indeed very good.
I don’t know if Shen Lexi on the other end of the phone just woke up or what, but her mood was obviously not very high.
"Xiao Yu, I won't go today. I have something going on at home and I need to make a phone call to deal with it. Please ask the administrator for leave for me."
"Ah... Well, okay then. Mr. Shen, I feel like you're not in a very good mood. Are you okay?"
"I'm fine. It's just that my parents are going to file a lawsuit and are making a fuss. They insisted on dragging me to participate. I'm a little annoyed, nothing more."
Ye Ningyu was a little surprised. She didn't expect that the matter had escalated to the point of filing a lawsuit.
She thought about it, then said carefully: "Well, you have to cheer up. When I get off work, I will treat you to a delicious meal."
"Hehe, thank you Xiaoyu, I'm fine, you should go to work quickly, don't be late. If you go to work now, you must have something to do in the evening, right?"
"Well...a sister came to Bei'an and is going out tonight."
After hanging up the phone, Ye Ningyu put the phone back into her pocket and went to the library alone to work part-time.
........
Shen Lexi ended the call with Ye Ningyu, and before she could do anything else, her phone rang again.
“Shen Gaofeng.”
Looking at the caller ID, Shen Lexi frowned, and her eyes gradually became complicated.
The phone rang for a long time, and when it was about to reach 60 seconds, Shen Lexi answered the call.
"Xixi, what are you doing? Why did you take so long to answer the phone?"
A middle-aged man's voice came from the other end of the phone, his tone a little anxious. It was obvious that he was in a bad mood because Shen Lexi answered the phone slowly.
But Shen Lexi didn't have the cheerful tone she usually had at school. Her tone was very cold at this time:
"Shen Gaofeng, I'm in school, and you didn't even ask me if I was in class before calling me. If I'm in class now, how can I answer your call?"
"If you can answer now, doesn't that mean you haven't been in class... Besides, Xixi, you are becoming more and more disrespectful. When you talk to your dad, you call him by his first name."
Shen Lexi remained silent.
Seeing that his daughter was unwilling to talk, Shen Gaofeng sighed and simply continued, "The National Day holiday is coming soon, and the matter between your mother and I will have a result in the next few days. Xixi, can you come back during the holiday?"
"If it's for this, I won't go back."
"But Dad hasn't seen you since the college entrance examination. Don't you want to come back and see Dad during this National Day holiday?"
Tears flashed in Chen Lexi's eyes, but her cold tone did not change at all: "Dad? When I needed a dad when I was a kid, you were busy with work. When I was at the parent-teacher conference, you were busy with work. When I was in the rebellious period in the third year of junior high school, you were busy with work. I didn't even have anyone to vent my rebellious emotions."
"Later, in order to attract your attention, I got a boyfriend in my freshman year of high school, but you were still busy with work... Since you only have your eyes on work, why are you pretending to care about me and pay attention to me now?"
The tears in Shen Lexi's eyes slid down her cheeks, but it was silent.
Shen Gaofeng on the other end of the phone did not guess that Shen Lexi, whose tone and emotions were so intense, was already in tears at this moment.
He was silent for a few seconds before he said in an unclear tone:
"Xixi, Daddy is busy making money and there is nothing he can do about it. If I didn't make money, would you be able to go to the best school since childhood, wear different clothes every day, and have pocket money that your peers don't have? Daddy does all this in the hope that you can live a good life... Your mother no longer wants this family, and I can't live without you anymore."
"Oh! Everything for me is just your excuse. You make money just to satisfy your own desires!"
"Xixi, I..."
"Don't say that. I can't go home for National Day."
"Where are you going if you don't go home? Are you going to follow someone else home? Is that reasonable?!"
Shen Gaofeng's tone became a little bolder.
But his attitude only angered Shen Lexi even more, and she also became angry: “That’s right, I just want to go home with others! I…I will go to Sichuan and Chongqing during the National Day holiday, the farther away from you the better!”
"Chuanyu? You go there...dudududu."
Before Shen Gaofeng finished speaking, Shen Lexi had already hung up the phone.
Then she squatted on the ground, holding her cell phone, hugged her knees and started crying.
Fortunately, everyone in the dormitory went to class today, except her.
After a while, the vibration of the phone brought Shen Lexi back to the display.
"Xixi, I've transferred 20,000 yuan to your bank card. If you don't want to go home during the National Day holiday, Dad won't force you. If you want to go out and play, go ahead. Just be careful on the road."
Shen Lexi held the phone in her hand, wiped her tears with the back of her hand, and a look of loss flashed across her face.
What she said just now was just an angry remark, but now this text message made her feel heartbroken again.
So she decided not to go home this time.
"Sichuan and Chongqing... not bad either. I can go to her hometown with Ye Ningyu to have a look. It's a very good choice."
After Shen Lexi went to the bathroom to wash the tears off her face, she sat on the bed and calmed down for a long time.
Not long after, An Yue and two other roommates returned to the dormitory after class.
Chen Lexi put away her heavy mood, put on a smile on her face and mingled with the others.
Until almost six o'clock.
Suddenly, Shen Lexi thought of something very important.
That is, during the days when I worked part-time in the library, I could always see the girl who often sat in the corner and secretly watched Ye Ningyu.
Chen Lexi frowned, hesitated for a few seconds, changed her clothes and said to An Yue:
"Yueyue, I have to go out for something. You don't have to wait for me to come back for dinner. You can go directly to the cafeteria."
"Oh, okay."
Shen Lexi didn't stay for long and turned around and left the dormitory.
