Chapter 15 The Same Moon
After finishing his homework, Jiang Zhao walked around the bookstore in the mall, but couldn't find any bookstore selling competition questions, so he had to go home.
It's dark outside.
The night in the new city is very lively, with people coming and going on the streets.
Jiang Zhao walked home alone with his schoolbag on his back.
The moon is very round and bright today.
She looked at the moon, took a picture and posted it in the group.
Jiang Zhao: [Picture]
Jiang Zhao: Happy Mid-Autumn Festival~
Luo Yan clicked on the picture.
The moon in the photo is hazy, in the shape of moonlight.
He opened the window, raised his phone, and took a picture of the moon.
Luo Yan: [Picture]
Luo Yan: Happy Mid-Autumn Festival.
The same moon is reflected on the screen.

Cheng Jinyue returned home and locked himself in the bedroom.
The more he thought about it along the way, the more uncomfortable he felt.
To put it bluntly, it's a cross between "Woman, you've successfully caught my attention" and "Woman, you're playing with fire."
He had to admit that he fell in love at first sight.
His mother noticed something was wrong with her son and knocked on the door eagerly: "Xiao Yue, what's wrong? Why did you lock yourself in?"
Cheng Jinyue opened the door and wanted to tell him not to call him like that.
But when the words came to my lips, they became: "Mom, I want to transfer schools!"
Cheng's mother was stunned: "What's wrong with you? Is someone bullying you at school?"
She also felt that her son was tall, strong, and rich, and it was good enough that he just played around and didn't bully others. Cheng's mother asked with concern, "Why did you transfer schools?"
"I..." Cheng Jinyue stuttered for a long time, remembering the girl's serious look when doing the homework: "The learning environment in our school is too bad. I want to study hard. Please transfer me to Mingyuan."
"Mingyuan... didn't you want to go to junior high school? Have you forgotten?"
"I was ignorant back then, but now I want to study!" Cheng Jinyue argued, "I really want to study hard, please transfer it to me."
Cheng's mother looked her son up and down with suspicion. Even though she doted on her son, she couldn't help but say, "Don't act weird. You can study well in your school. How about I find you a tutor?"
Cheng Jinyue immediately lost his temper: "Forget it, I won't tell you anymore."

On the last day of the holiday, Jiang Zhao packed up his things at noon.
She has evening self-study in the evening, so she plans to leave early.
When we arrived at the gate of the community, a black car was parked at the entrance.
The rear window rolled down, revealing Jiang Zhao's familiar yet somewhat unfamiliar face.
The man was tall, dressed in a suit and tie, with sharp eyes and a look of fatigue on his face. "Zhao Zhao."
Jiang Zhao was stunned for a moment: "Dad?" She ran over and got into the car: "Didn't you say yesterday that you wouldn't be back?"
Jiang Wei just flew back from Europe.
Jiang Zhao knew that the company was going to go public and the real estate business was competing for a piece of land.
The new city will continue to develop northward in the future, and that piece of land will gradually become the commercial center in the north of the new city, and its value will more than increase tenfold.
"There's another game coming up soon, I don't know if I'll be able to make it in time."
Jiang Wei rubbed his eyebrows, fearing that he would see a look of loneliness or disappointment on his daughter's face.
But Jiang Zhao's tone was full of concern: "Are you so anxious?"
"Yeah." Jiang Wei looked at his daughter: "You've lost weight, haven't you? Eat more at school. Dad will transfer some money to you."
"Where have I lost weight?"
She is now in a good mood, eats well and sleeps well every day, and feels strong enough to kill a cow.
Jiang Zhao took out his cell phone and showed it to Jiang Wei: "Besides, I have money. I bought a cell phone myself a few days ago."
Jiang Wei looked at the brand new smartphone, lost in thought for a moment, and asked, "What about your old phone?"
"I left it at home." Jiang Zhao opened the bank's app and showed it to Jiang Wei. "My balance beats 99% of high school students."
Jiang Wei still transferred some money to Jiang Zhao. Thinking that it was inconvenient to use a mobile phone or bank card at school, he pulled out a stack of hundred-yuan bills from his wallet and said, "You should bring some cash. It's not easy to use cards at school."
Jiang Zhao was at a loss for words. "How can our school cafeteria be so expensive? Besides, I can't afford to take the bus with so much money."
"I'll ask the driver to take you."
"No, you should get some sleep." Jiang Zhao opened the car door and went up to hug Jiang Wei's neck again: "Bye, Dad. Oh, by the way, we may have a parent-teacher meeting soon. Do you have time?"
She got out of the car and added through the window, "It doesn't matter if I don't have any. I did well in the test, so the teacher won't say anything."
Jiang Zhao was in high spirits.
In her previous life, Jiang Zhao also returned home during the Mid-Autumn Festival, but she did not see Jiang Wei.
The first day she returned home, she found no one at home, so the next morning, she packed her bags in disappointment and went back to school, not even going back for National Day.
It turned out that Jiang Wei rushed back home.
Jiang Wei looked at Jiang Zhao's back, feeling mixed emotions.
He remembered that when he first brought Jiang Zhao to the new city, his daughter, who was only as tall as his shoulders, looked up at him coldly.
She said, "You want to control me again now?"
She was determined to apply for boarding school and never took the initiative to call him. Sometimes when they met at home, they were unwilling to say a word.
Jiang Wei is not good at expressing his feelings. He opened a bank card for Jiang Zhao and transferred money into it every month and on holidays, as if this could ease his love for his daughter.
Or maybe it was just to resolve his guilt for neglecting his daughter for so many years.
He knew that Jiang Zhao didn't like Mingyuan, so before Jiang Zhao took the high school entrance exam, Jiang Wei had contacted his friends abroad and arranged for her to study in a high school there, which would make it easier for her to apply to foreign universities in the future.
Jiang Wei's idea was very simple. Since Jiang Zhao didn't want to see him, he just needed to prepare enough money and pave the way for Jiang Zhao.
But Jiang Wei did not expect that Jiang Zhao got a very high score and applied to Mingyuan No. 1 Middle School himself.
What he didn't expect was that she would take the initiative to call him on the first day of school.
Jiang Wei was in a meeting at the time. It took a long time for his phone to ring before he noticed the name on it. At that moment, Jiang Wei even thought he was having an illusion.
From that day on, Jiang Zhao changed.
She would take the initiative to call him every one or two days. Knowing that he was abroad, she would choose the time according to the time difference.
Jiang Wei let out a long breath, and the driver asked cautiously: "Boss, are we going now?"
"Let's go to the hotel." Jiang Wei said, and made a phone call: "Xiao Wang, go check it out near Mingyuan No. 1 Middle School..."
