Chapter 278
Guan Yuping lay stiffly on the bed, motionless, and did not answer any questions.
At this time, Ding Xiang and Ming Chuanxiu came back, quietly took Qin Xiang and the others outside, and showed them the list of candidates selected this time, and Jie Zong's name was on it.
Now it is not difficult to understand why Guan Yuping is like this.
She thought she gave up this opportunity to stay in the country for love, but in fact, she had already registered and successfully passed the school's preliminary selection.
Jie Zong's parents are teachers, and his mother is a vice-president who teaches English. As far as she knows, Jie Zong's English level is also very good, and there is a good chance that he will pass the TOEFL.
Originally, the two of them had not confirmed their relationship, and Guan Yuping was somewhat willing to do so. Now that Jie Zong has left, it is almost impossible for them to be together.
Ding Xiang said cautiously, "I heard that Jie Zong has learned professional knowledge very well, and he has won the school's first-class scholarship every year. The school has high hopes for him."
"What about Yuping?" Ming Chuan frowned, "She gave up for this..."
Qin Xiang disagreed, "But the choice is made by herself. I now suspect that she did not confirm with Jie Zong before doing this. In other words, she herself did not know that Jie Zong participated in the school's selection." She sighed and said, "It's too late to say anything now."
They can't just hope that Jie Zong will not be selected. This is unrealistic.
After they finished talking, they went into the dormitory and saw Guan Yuping lying there crying.
They didn't know how to comfort her and looked at Qin Xiang.
Qin Xiang went over and patted Guan Yuping, "Don't cry, crying is useless, maybe he is unlucky and can't pass the exam."
Guan Yuping stopped crying, raised her head and looked at her, "He liked you after all, why don't you hope for him to be well?"
Qin Xiang choked and immediately laughed angrily. She nodded and said, "Okay, I was wrong, I shouldn't have said it."
After that, she simply took her books and went out to study.
Ding Xiang and Ming Chuan Xiu looked at each other and dared not speak. Mei Lin was not selected. Although she was a little sad, she did not feel the sky had fallen. She comforted, "If it doesn't work, let's change someone else..."
"What do you know? No one is better than him."
Mei Lin blushed and murmured, "Yes, I don't understand."
After saying that, she also left.
Zhao Wenna stayed at the end. She wanted to say a few words of advice, but she felt that it would be redundant to say anything, so she just left without saying anything.
Guan Yuping was the only one left in the dormitory. Guan Yuping couldn't help but burst into tears.
After going downstairs, Meilin said with a dark face, "How did she become like this? Where is the person who used to be aloof even though she said bad things? Now she actually said this to us for a man. We were kind-hearted, but what kind of words did she say?"
"She may be too sad and find it hard to accept." Dingxiang didn't dare to say more. After all, she and Mingchuanxiu were selected. If she said too much, Guan Yuping would think that they were talking without any back pain. "Maybe it will be fine after a while."
Qin Xiang was speechless. "I didn't expect that there would be a romantic in our dormitory."
But it's better not to have such a romantic.
It sounds affectionate, but in fact, it is love-brained in the words of later generations.
Qin Xiang was the most disappointed one.
The next day, after the list was posted, Guan Yuping went to find Jie Zong again. Jie Zong did not shy away from complaining to Guan Yuping, "Why can't I sign up?"
Guan Yuping took a long time to utter, "I thought we were already together."
Before that, Guan Yuping had invited Jie Zong to dinner several times, and Jie Zong had never refused. After all, they were both top students at Tsinghua University, and Guan Yuping had studied physics well before, so they had a good conversation. Before signing up, she even told Jie Zong that she had not chosen to sign up.
But Jie Zong did not say a word from beginning to end.
At that time, she thought Jie Zong would not sign up, which was also the reason why she gave up signing up at the last minute.
But in the end, her so-called deep affection was like a joke. She did not get Jie Zong's heart, and even lost the opportunity to go abroad.
Jie Zong frowned slightly, a little puzzled, "When did I agree to be together? Aren't we just ordinary friends?"
These words cut Guan Yuping like a knife, making her feel as if she had fallen into ice and snow.
Guan Yuping didn't know why she left in a hurry, she just felt ashamed.
After two years of pursuit, she made herself a joke.
She knew that Jie Zong was very good and it was very likely that he would pass the TOEFL, but she couldn't accept herself being so stupid.
A few days later, it was the National Day holiday. Qin Xiang and the department leaders had already asked for leave. After the holiday, they flew directly to Hong Kong City, but they didn't go with those who went to take the exam. However, considering that the school was not familiar with the place, Qin Xiang took the initiative to help book the hotel, which could be regarded as a reward to the school.
On the last day of September, Qin Xiang took Zhao Ping, Mi Hongjun and He Liping to the provincial capital. Tan Xiu was temporarily in charge of the factory.
It was already very late when the plane landed. Qin Xiang did not take them to the small building to stay, but directly stayed in the hotel.
After a night's rest, they got up at dawn the next day and went to the third brother's new house.
The third brother's new house was nearby. When they went there, Qin Hai and Qin Baotian also came. Qin Yang had already put on the suit specially made by Qin Xiang. He was handsome and tall, and his face expression was much softer. Even the scar on his face did not look so scary.
Seeing Qin Xiang and the others coming, Qin Yang asked her, "How is it?"
Qin Xiang smiled and nodded, "So handsome."
Everyone in the room laughed at once.
Qin Yang couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. He had never worn a suit before, and this suit was tailored to fit him very well, which made him feel even more awkward. Qin Xiang
looked around. Qin Hai and Qin Baotian were still checking other things. Qin Baotian said, "Your second brother and I will go to the hotel to entertain guests. You are young, so bring people with you to meet him."
Then he asked, "Is Huaiqing coming?"
"Of course," Qin Xiang said, "but I guess he will be late. He will take a helicopter."
Oh, Qin Xiang felt jealous when she said the last sentence. It is very troublesome to take a helicopter in this day and age, but Meng Huaiqing can do it. It's so annoying to compare yourself with others. She doesn't even have a car. She has to buy a car first after making money this time.
As they were talking, Meng Huaiqing's voice came from the door.
The two looked at each other and smiled. They
had been apart for a while and they really missed each other.
At this time Qin Hai came over and approached her and said, "Mom also came with the two children."
Qin Xiang was not surprised, so she nodded, "Have you informed your uncle about this?"
"We've agreed. Originally, we didn't want to get involved, and we didn't want grandpa and grandma to get involved." Qin Hai smiled sarcastically, "But your third brother directly took out two hundred yuan, and before your uncle could say anything, your aunt and grandmother agreed. They promised to keep an eye on her and never let her cause trouble."
Qin Xiang breathed a sigh of relief, "That's good. As children, our words may not work, but grandpa and grandma's words will definitely work."
This is the so-called family affection, which is not worth mentioning in front of money.
Qin Xiang didn't think it was wrong for her uncle not to mix it, but in other words, Lian Fengying's current situation was the result of the problems in her grandparents' education.
It was too late to say anything now. Lian Fengying was fifty years old and it was difficult for her to change her mind.
Qin Hai and Qin Baotian went to the hotel to entertain guests. Some of Qin Yang's friends also came. After packing up, Qin Yang also wore a big red flower on his chest, and they were ready to set off.
In order to welcome the bride, Qin Hai borrowed a car from Meng Huaiqing.
Meng Huaiqing thought that since the wedding should be more lively, he simply arranged six cars for him, two of which belonged to Meng Huaiqing, and the remaining four were Santanas that he borrowed, and there was also a truck, which was used to transport the dowry. At this moment, they were all parked downstairs, with a big red flower on the hood and many roses placed on it, which looked festive and beautiful.
The wedding gift Qin Xiang gave them in the end was not very special, it included all the bedding, wedding clothes and toast clothes, and also bought a color TV.
After everything was packed, it was already eight o'clock in the morning, and everyone surrounded the groom and went out.
Qin Xiang and Meng Huaiqing fell behind. Meng Huaiqing held her hand and asked, "Do you want to take a helicopter?"
Qin Xiang looked at him speechlessly, "Are you getting married or is Third Brother getting married? You drive a helicopter and everyone comes to see you, so who will see Third Brother?"
"Okay then." Meng Huaiqing said, "We'll fly a helicopter when we get married."
Qin Xiang laughed, "That's not necessary. I don't want to be blown into a fool by the wind in my beautiful clothes."
Meng Huaiqing was helpless, "No matter how romantic something is, it becomes unreliable when it comes to you."
"I'm telling the truth."
Everyone went downstairs, and Qin Yang's friends were stunned when they saw the six cars for ladies, "Third Brother, that's amazing, really amazing."
Qin Yang smiled and glanced at Meng Huaiqing, "That's all thanks to Boss Meng."
Everyone got in the car, and the young people who couldn't fit in got on the truck at the back, which was even more impressive.
The Zhao family's family compound at the Experimental Middle School is not too far from here, but in order to show respect, the motorcade circled the provincial capital and then entered the family compound from another direction.
The trees at the gate of the family compound were all tied with red ribbons, and a big red wedding character was pasted on the gate. Some children gathered at the gate to play. When they saw the car coming, they jumped and shouted, "The groom is coming, the groom is coming."
Then they ran back to the compound to report the news.
Today is the first day of the National Day holiday. No one is working, and it is already lively everywhere. When the firecrackers sounded, it was even more lively.
The motorcade entered the family compound and walked slowly forward until it reached the downstairs of the Zhao family, which was even more lively. The
Zhao family has many relatives, and now they are all gathered in the small house. Huang Rong's mother Gu Aiju smiled and said, "Cousin, Qianqian's wedding dress is really nice. I heard that it was designed by Qin Xiang. Can you ask her to help design it when Rongrong gets married?" Jiang Manling smiled
