Chapter 200 Changes
Fang Shulan also said, "Ayi, you and Xiao Li are actually classmates. What a coincidence."
She talked for a while. Li Wenxi was about to leave, and Han Yi said, "I'll take you there later. The road outside is not easy to walk on."
Fang Shulan glanced at Han Yi. Her nephew was not so easy to talk to before. But she helped to persuade Li Wenxi.
Li Wenxi was no longer polite.
She followed Han Yi into the car first and met Xinchen in the car.
Yu Xinchen went to the house to pack things.
"Thank you for the sweater you bought." Han Yi spoke first.
Li Wenxi smiled and said, "I should thank you. Also, thank you for sending me that book. Although I didn't receive it, I still want to say thank you. That book was very hard to buy at that time."
Han Yi said gloomily, "But you didn't use it either." And this is not just about a book.
"Next time I have the chance, I'll treat you to a meal. You've helped me many times." Li Wenxi said.
"Okay, then keep it for now." Han Yi smiled.
Soon, the final exams were over, and everyone started packing their luggage to go home for the New Year.
Before Chen Zhiyan left for the plane, he specially sent a large bag of snacks to Li Wenxi, saying that it was for Li Wenxi to kill time on the train.
On the train, Li Wenxi, Zhang Shulan, Gao Hui, Zheng Shunli, Chen Hongjun, and Zheng Shunli's other classmates, a group of more than ten people, almost occupied more than half of a sleeper car.
Hao Sanmei did not go back home, and stayed in school for the New Year.
She said that she did not want to go back to that home, so she might as well stay in Beijing to have fun and make some money.
After getting on the train, a group of boys were playing poker, while Li Wenxi, Zhang Shulan, Gao Hui and others were chatting and eating Li Wenxi's snacks. Gao Hui
smiled and said, "It's better to have a partner, someone is responsible for snacks, and someone is responsible for train tickets. It's really enviable."
"Then go find one yourself." Zhang Shulan said.
Gao Hui's face suddenly turned red. Zhang Shulan immediately caught this subtle expression and tickled Gao Hui: "Hurry up and tell the truth."
"Hahaha, okay, okay, I'll tell you." Gao Hui was ticklish and kept laughing.
Zhang Shulan stopped and listened to Gao Hui: "It's a classmate from the engineering department next door. I think he studies very hard. We often meet in the library, and he often saves a seat for me..."
In short, it's a story of college students who are still in an ambiguous period.
Zhang Shulan asked a lot more questions and then let Gao Hui go.
Time passed much faster when talking about gossip.
After getting off the train and arriving in Ningcheng, everyone dispersed again.
At this time, at Chen Zhiyan's home in Nanshi, Chen Zhiyan was peeling apples for his mother with a fruit knife.
"Why do you need to peel this? Just let Aunt Wang do it." Mother Chen smiled.
"What Aunt Wang peeled is peeled by Aunt Wang. Let your son peel an apple for you."
Mother Chen's eyes were full of smiles. Seeing that the apple peels were not stopping, she exclaimed: "Zhiyan, when did you become so good at peeling apples?"
Chen Zhiyan smiled and said: "I usually peel apples for my children and schoolmates."
The smile in Mother Chen's eyes slowly faded. I'm afraid she peeled it for that girl to eat. She is good at manipulating people.
"Zhiyan, I have discussed with your father and want you to apply to an Ivy League university in Country M next year, and then go there directly to study for a bachelor's degree."
"Next year?" Chen Zhiyan knew that he would go to Country M to study sooner or later, but he didn't expect it to be so soon.
Chen's mother nodded: "Do you remember the Uncle Shen family I told you about? They have deep roots in Country M. After hearing about your situation, they suggest that you apply to an Ivy League university in Country M now, and don't have to wait until you are a graduate student. Your Uncle Shen said that he would ask a prestigious old professor to write a letter of recommendation for you. So you just need to prepare for the TOEFL well in the first half of next year, and based on your award-winning experience and academic qualifications from Tsinghua University, it won't be a problem to apply to an Ivy League university."
This information came a little suddenly, and Chen Zhiyan didn't react for a while. In fact, he had already prepared to study abroad, but if he went abroad now, what would he and Xiaoxi do? Previously, he planned to study for a master's degree with Xiaoxi.
"Mom, I actually have a girlfriend at school. She is very outstanding and I like her very much." Chen Zhiyan told Li Wenxi about the situation again, "Can she go abroad with me?"
"Oh? Our Zhiyan actually has a girlfriend? You didn't even tell mom?" Mom Chen took a sip from the teacup and teased, "In that case, I have to prepare two red envelopes for the New Year."
Chen Zhiyan didn't expect that his mother was not unhappy to hear this, and she said she would give Xiaoxi a red envelope, and she was very happy.
Mother Chen added, "Zhiyan, I'm very happy that you have a girlfriend, which means you have grown up. But if you go abroad alone, it will cause a lot of trouble for Uncle Shen, and we will owe him a lot of favors. If you add another person, your father and I can't ask for it.
Besides, if you can't apply for a full scholarship to study abroad, it will cost a lot of money. Xiaoxi's family may not be able to afford such a large amount of expenses. Maybe their family can't even afford the flight ticket to Country M." She knew that the girl was reluctant to take a plane to go home for the New Year, so she specifically mentioned the last sentence.
Chen Zhiyan wanted to ask if their family could pay for this money. Then her mother said, "Of course, our family can help with this money. But I think Xiaoxi may not be willing to accept it. A girl with such good grades should have a strong sense of self-esteem. She will not accept money from others for no reason."
Chen Zhiyan was immediately discouraged. Xiaoxi would not accept it. She did not even accept the flight ticket from Beijing to Ningcheng, let alone such a large amount of money for going abroad.
"Xiaoxi can wait until she is a graduate student to go to M country. By then, you will have stayed in M country for a few years. When she goes there, you can still take care of her. How great is that." Seeing that Chen Zhiyan was loosening up, Chen's mother persuaded him again and again.
Chen Zhiyan was completely convinced by his mother at this time. He was originally very interested in studying for his undergraduate degree in Country M, and he started studying for the TOEFL at home that day.
In the evening, Dad Chen came back and asked Mom Chen, "Did Zhiyan agree?"
Mom Chen helped Dad Chen take off the last coat and hung it up, "He's already studying for the TOEFL there."
"That's good. When he goes to Country M and lives in the Shen family, it's just right for him to cultivate his relationship with Meiying from the Shen family. By then, they will be childhood sweethearts, and it won't be a marriage arranged by their parents that young people reject. Children who grew up in Country M are the most in favor of freedom of marriage."
Mom Chen was unhappy to hear this: "Our Zhiyan is not worthy of Meiying? It's the Shen family who has set their sights on our Zhiyan and wants to settle him down as soon as possible."
