Ziyi's "digression" made Qin Yuhuan nervous.
It is undeniable that she went to Jin University because of Ziyi.
That year, Ziyi did well in the exam, and Zhao Fengzhuo came directly to Licheng to donate buildings to all the schools Ziyi had attended. It was also reported in the local news. That was also the first time she deeply felt the gap in family background between her and Ziyi.
She searched the Internet and found Zhao Fengzhuo, and also learned about Jin Cheng. She hesitated between Peking University and Tsinghua University and Jin Cheng, and finally got into the School of Chemical Engineering of Jin University with high scores.
She always told others that she liked chemistry, which was Jin University's flagship major. Various teachers came to her home to persuade her again and again, but Qin Yuhuan was rebellious. The more others told her not to do something, the more she wanted to do it.
"The person I like comes from a wealthy family." Qin Yuhuan's eyelashes trembled. She didn't want to tell Ziyi a lie, but she was afraid... to scare Ziyi, so she could only hint at it little by little.
"At that time, I heard that she might stay in Jincheng for a long time, so I applied to Jin University. I chose chemistry because I thought it would be easy to find a relatively decent job there, such as in a research institute. My family background was not that good, so I had to find another way."
Qin Yuhuan put a lot of thought into it and almost tore apart the books on the major she was applying for. In the end, she chose chemistry. However, things are unpredictable. She didn't expect that the major she had spent so much time and effort on would not be useful in the end, and now she has to rely on her looks to make a living.
Ziyi slammed on the brakes, interrupting Qin Yuhuan's words.
She was furious, but fortunately they had arrived at their destination. She parked the car and said sourly, "You are so nice, who would dare to despise you!" It was so annoying.
"Actually, it's not about being together." Qin Yuhuan found that Ziyi was sometimes... slow to react, and her reaction time was very long. "It's just so that we can have the chance to see each other again in the future. Xiaozi, at the beginning I didn't think I had any hope."
All her purpose was just to see Ziyi again, even if it meant staying in the same city with her.
She could do her job, which she thought was stable, in obscurity, while Ziyi was a big shot in the business world. She would follow all of Ziyi's accounts, including the accounts of Ziyi's company, and would buy a financial magazine with Ziyi's photo printed on it when she passed by a newsstand.
Qin Yuhuan was content to find out about Ziyi from the magazines and know that she was living a good and successful life.
Qin Yuhuan was on the verge of revealing Ziyi's ID number, but Ziyi was still standing there, fuming indignantly. Unable to contain herself, she began to grumble, "Didn't you realize that beneath Xiao Qin's intelligent exterior lies a love-brained mind?"
She felt a little regretful after she said that, but Qin Yuhuan didn't get angry but laughed instead, with a smile flowing across her cold face.
Posture:?
Aren’t you angry about this?
"Xiaozi praised me for being smart, and I am indeed very smart." Qin Yuhuan got out of the car and extended her hand to Ziyi. When Ziyi held her hand back, she thanked her sincerely.
Ziyi was a little confused by Qin Yuhuan's sudden seriousness, "Why are you saying thank you out of the blue?"
"Thank you for coming with me. It seems that with someone by my side, I feel less sad." Qin Yuhuan lowered her head, and when Ziyi wasn't paying attention, she touched her toes with hers. She sighed softly, "It's undeniable that without you, I would be miserable."
"I won't be offered any lucrative activities, so naturally I don't have any money. I don't have the confidence to fight with my uncles for fair treatment for my parents. There are many things," Qin Yuhuan sighed. "My dad's accident is different from my mom's. I love my mom, but I don't have deep feelings for my dad. When he got into trouble, I just wanted to use money to make up for the regret of not being firm and installing a surveillance camera for him. Maybe with a surveillance camera, I would have discovered my dad's accident the first time, but if I think about it carefully, even if I did, I wouldn't watch it 24 hours a day."
Qin Yuhuan's words made Ziyi feel a pang of pain in her heart.
She knew that what Qin Yuhuan said was true.
In the previous life...
How did Qin Yuhuan get here? Did Qiao Yuning accompany her?
Did she face everything alone, or... at least she had a friend by her side.
Unfortunately, no matter how curious she was, these were all things she had missed in her previous life. She held Qin Yuhuan's hand tightly, as if she wanted to hold Qin Yuhuan from her previous life as well, causing Qin Yuhuan to let out a soft moan.
"Xiaozi, you have such strong hands."
As if startled, Ziyi loosened his grip. The hand left the other person and fell to the side, looking pitiful. "Sorry, I... I just feel a little..."
"I know." Qin Yuhuan said gently, holding Ziyi's hand again and leading her towards Qin Jiadong's home. "Xiao Zi is just worried about me. I'm not deliberately playing the victim. In our social circle, there are not many people like me."
"But when I knew you, you never seemed to feel inferior because of these things, you were just sad." For some reason, "Qin Yuhuan in the previous life" lingered in her mind. Her eyes were hot, and she followed Qin Yuhuan's footsteps closely, for fear of getting lost.
"From my own perspective, I'm excellent, Ziyi." Even though the situation at home could be described as "miserable," Qin Yuhuan only showed sadness and grief in front of Ziyi. She remained as dignified as ever, never bending her back because of family matters. "I'm even better than most people, but family members are not optional. They shouldn't be the reason for me to feel inferior."
"I know there are many people in this world who are better than me, but I only compare myself to myself. As for whether I'm miserable or not..." Qin Yuhuan's eyes were clear and his tone was steady. "When I feel down, I watch documentaries, look at this world, look at our past. In this vast world, on a long timeline, there are countless people who are worse off than me. They can't even make ends meet. Compared to them, we were born in a relatively peaceful modern world. We have food to eat and books to read. Xiaozi, I never ask for much. I'm content with what I have."
"Compared to your thoughts, I feel insignificant." Ziyi had to admit this. She came from a wealthy family and lacked nothing. Since she was born, she had been at the destination that countless people could not reach, but there were times when she was not satisfied.
For example, why is her grandmother like this? Why can't she be nicer to her mother? Why can't the family be more harmonious? Why can't Shu Baizhu be a little more enthusiastic towards her? There are so many things.
While climbing the stairs, Qin Yuhuan panted lightly, turned around, and smiled at Ziyi in the darkness: "It's not that exaggerated. I'm just accepting life, whether it's forced or voluntary. This will make me feel better."
After returning, the two of them went to wash up quietly. Ziyi came back limping and said, "My foot slipped and I almost stepped into a pit and cracked it."
