Chapter 570: Chapter 592: Tsinghua or Beijing University
“This works!” Sheng An nodded happily, “I can study while earning money, and I still want to go to college. My dad said he wants to make the first college student in the whole village!”
“I’m sure you can do it! Don’t worry, co with to the city, and I’ll let you study at the top educational institution in the country.”
“What’s the top educational institution?”
“Tsinghua or Beijing University, you can definitely get in.” Sheng An had dropped out of high school before finishing, so when she went to the city, she would first take a year of high school to catch up and then take the college entrance exam.
The sisters talked joyfully, finally breaking the barriers that existed before their rebirth. Sheng An felt too embarrassed to continue giving Sheng Ning the cold shoulder. By the ti they went from the supply center to the farrs’ market, they were so close they were nearly holding hands.
Almost everyone at the farrs’ market recognized Sheng An, all greeting her warmly.
“An’an ca to buy stuff?”
“How co we haven’t seen you in such a long ti?”
“Qi Lei often cos looking for you but always misses you.”
Upon hearing Qi Lei ntioned, Sheng An’s eyes lit up. “Really? What did Brother Qi co looking for?”
“I saw him carrying sothing; I guess he brought it from the county town for you.”
“Ah! That’s too bad, I wish I had told him earlier that I wouldn’t be coming to buy bean sprouts recently.”
Sheng An blad herself, and just then, Qi Lei ca over. Hearing her bla herself on the spot, he laughed and called out, “An’an!”
“Brother Qi.” Sheng An tossed her stuff to Sheng Ning and ran over, laughing.
Sheng Ning stood watching the scene, looking at the belongings. An’an was half-looking up at Qi Lei, talking and laughing, her expression bursting with joy, completely thrilled.
On the other hand, Qi Lei’s expression was serious, but his gaze was so tender when looking at Sheng An that perhaps even he hadn’t realized it could drown soone with its warmth.
This silly girl, unknowingly, was welcoming her own spring.
Sheng Ning crossed her arms, finding the scene increasingly amusing. She had t this Qi Lei once during her last return, Qi i’s brother. He was said to have good character and a sharp mind, making him the first person in Shixi Town to seize the opportunities of economic reform.
And in fact, Qi Lei’s future looked quite promising!
Sheng Ning rubbed her head, trying hard to recall if she had heard the na Qi Lei in her previous life. It seed that the richest man in Shixi Town was called Li Bin, not Qi Lei.
Who was second then?
After thinking hard and coming up with nothing, Sheng Ning punched herself in frustration. This was about An’an’s future, and she had forgotten; that was truly unforgiveable.
It had always been this way: people could only rember the first place and easily forgot who ca second. This is why countless people relentlessly fought for the top place.
Perhaps Sheng Ning’s gaze was too blatant, as from a dozen ters away, Qi Lei could clearly feel it. He looked over and nodded at Sheng Ning, then quickly looked away.
Sheng Ning found this very amusing, realizing that Qi Lei might be even better than she had expected. His gaze was honest and straightforward, and importantly, he had seen through her thoughts.
In that brief nod, the intentions of both were fully exchanged through their glances.
“Brother Qi, I won’t chat anymore; my sister is waiting for .” Sheng An had talked for a while, explaining why she hadn’t been selling bean sprouts recently and ntioned that she would go to the city to study with her sister after the New Year and might not be able to sell bean sprouts anymore.
“That’s good news; you should study well in the city.”
“I will! Brother Qi, will you also go to the city?” Sheng An asked expectantly.
