Chapter 42
After the end of the semester, the holidays began. He Qing and Jiang Xinhui returned home on the day their last exam was over. Gu Qingyue and Shu Miaomiao were the only ones left in the dormitory.
Gu Qingyue sat at her desk, reviewing for her communications exam for the afternoon. Shu Miaomiao lay on her bed, watching a TV series. "I heard from the biology major that Professor Gu won't be at S University next semester."
"Yes, he was just helping Teacher Chen this time." Gu Qingyue said.
"Oh, what a pity," Shu Miaomiao said. "It's rare for a science and engineering department to have such a good-looking professor."
Gu Qingyue was both amused and confused. Shu Miaomiao turned over in bed and sighed deeply, "You have to do an internship next semester. Have you decided what kind of internship you want to find?"
Gu Qingyue shook her head: "I haven't decided yet, but I'll probably look for something related to my major."
Although Gu Qingyue was studying Chinese, in her junior year at S University, the Chinese major began to be divided into different fields, and Gu Qingyue chose journalism. Shu Miaomiao suggested, "Maybe you can find a job as a reporter or something."
"Well, what about you?" Gu Qingyue asked.
"My mom did suggest I study abroad," Shu Miaomiao said. "But, you know, I just want to stay somewhere familiar. I'm a little timid about being unfamiliar with the place and not speaking the language, so I plan to just look for a job when the time comes."
"That's not bad either." Gu Qingyue said.
After the exam, Gu Qingyue and Shu Miaomiao left school together. Su Xi drove to pick them up, and they packed some clothes and other belongings. After all, they wouldn't be in the dormitory much next semester, except for filling out graduation documents and needing to come back a few times.
Shu Miaomiao said, "Sorry to bother you, Sister Su Xi."
"Miaomiao is just sweet-talking." Su Xi got out of the car and helped the two put their things in the trunk.
Gu Qingyue and Shu Miaomiao sat in the back seat. Su Xi glanced at them and said with a smile, "This ivory tower life is about to end. Welcome to adult life."
Shu Miaomiao looked melancholy: "Those days must have been very difficult to endure."
Su Xi smiled and said, "Not really. An optimistic attitude is very important."
Su Xi sent Shu Miaomiao back first. When the car drove out of Shu Miaomiao's residential area, Su Xi glanced at Gu Qingyue and suddenly said, "Your third uncle is coming to our house for dinner today."
Gu Qingyue hummed and sipped her milk tea. Su Xi continued, "Aunt Gu is planning to go to Yanjiang to celebrate the New Year this year. Has she mentioned this to you?" "No." Gu Qingyue said,
Su Xi said considerately, "If you don't want to go back, I can tell my aunt for you."
Gu Qingyue shook her head: "No need."
On the way, Su Xi received a call and hung up without saying anything. In just a few seconds, Gu Qingyue immediately guessed who had called, but she tactfully remained silent.
When Gu Qingyue and Su Xi arrived at the old house, Gu Hengsheng had not arrived yet.
Gu Qingyue knelt on the carpet, opened the suitcase, and folded the clothes neatly into the closet. The sound of a car coming from downstairs came, and Gu Qingyue guessed that it must be Gu Hengsheng.
Sure enough, the next second.
Aunt Xu came up and knocked on the door to ask her to come downstairs for dinner. Gu Qingyue replied, "I'm coming."
She picked up the remaining half of the clothes, threw them into the closet, closed the door, and pretended to be out of sight.
Gu Qingyue went to the bathroom and took a look at her clothes. She was not at all uncomfortable. She was wearing an avocado round-neck sweatshirt and blue wide-leg jeans. Under the sweatshirt was a white high-necked cashmere sweater. Because of her fair skin, the avocado color made her look even brighter and more lively.
Gu Qingyue came downstairs slowly. Gu Hengsheng and Su Yanli were talking in the living room. Gu's mother came down and said, "Wash your hands and eat."
Gu Qingyue said "oh", walked to the bathroom and washed her hands.
At the dinner table, the topic suddenly turned to her.
Su Yanli asked, "Qingyue will graduate in June next year. What are your plans?"
Gu Qingyue held her chopsticks and said, "Find an internship first."
"Don't you plan to continue your studies?" Su Xi suddenly looked at Gu Hengsheng across from her and said, "If you plan to study abroad, Hengsheng should be able to give you some advice. After all, he's been abroad for so many years."
Gu Hengsheng didn't comment and said, "Yes, if you have any questions, you can ask me."
Mother Gu also said: "Yes, I hope Qingyue doesn't have to enter society too early. It's always good for a girl to study for a few more years."
"I haven't thought about this question." Gu Qingyue said stiffly.
Gu Hengsheng glanced at her.
After dinner, Gu Qingyue saw Gu Hengsheng out. Gu Qingyue was one step behind Gu Hengsheng. She said, "Do you also think I should continue studying?"
Gu Hengsheng paused slightly. In the darkness, his expression was unclear. He said, "No, this is your life. Other people's opinions are just suggestions. The main thing is to follow your own ideas."
"Then what's your suggestion?" Gu Qingyue asked aggressively.
Gu Hengsheng stared at her and said, "What I said just now made you angry."
Gu Qingyue felt as if she had punched cotton. Her shoulders slumped, a hint of regret welling up in her. Yes, he had said nothing wrong. She was just afraid that his wish for her to study abroad held a deeper, unspoken meaning.
"Qingyue, I have the same opinion as your mother. I just think you can study for a few more years. Maybe it's my selfish motive that I don't want you to enter society too early," he said.
"That's it." She stared at him suspiciously.
"Yes." He looked at her gently and smiled slightly, "Qingyue, what do you think it should be?"
Gu Qingyue shook her head and said softly, "Nothing."
After the words fell, he quickly added: "I'm sorry."
The emotion in her eyes was obvious. Gu Hengsheng sighed softly and said, "Qingyue, you don't have to apologize to me for everything."
"I, a villain, should apologize for judging others." She said in a serious tone.
"I, the Prime Minister, have a big stomach and won't bother with you," he said.
Gu Qingyue's eyebrows curled up into a smile, and she said, "No matter what happens, you won't bother with me and will forgive me."
"I don't spoil children." Gu Hengsheng said gently, and then said, "Come in, it's cold at night."
"Drive carefully."
"good."
Gu Qingyue turned and walked up the stairs. When you like someone, you feel like all your emotions are controlled by him. He easily dispelled her slightly depressed mood. Gu Qingyue warned herself not to be overly sensitive and make a big deal out of nothing.
When Gu Qingyue returned to her room, Aunt Xu was clearing away the leftovers from the table. Mother Gu was in the living room, and when she saw her come in, she waved for her to come over.
"Mom, do you really want me to continue studying?" Gu Qingyue sat next to her mother.
"This is just my own idea. Everything depends on your wishes." said Gu's mother.
Gu Qingyue hummed softly, then asked, "Are you going back to Yanjiang for the New Year this year?"
"What did Su Xi tell you?"
"yes."
"Yes, I thought your grandfather's health was not as good as before, so I decided to go to Yanjiang this year to do my part for your father."
"Won't Uncle Su have any objections?" Gu Qingyue approached Gu's mother and whispered.
"No, your uncle is not such a narrow-minded person. He respects my opinion in everything." Mother Gu smiled and patted her hands.
