It’s a ss, right now Zhao Xuan has only one thought in her mind: this guy is having a fit at the worst possible ti.
She clearly ntioned before that they are high school students now, and they need to prepare for the college entrance exams in two years. They should be focusing on their studies right now.
This guy seed to have it all together, so why is he suddenly having a ltdown now? It’s really giving her a headache.
What to do? Before, she could bla it on Zhang Yu, saying that it would make her unhappy. The three of them grew up together, so how could they abandon one person?
But now, the Zhang Yu card is really not working. She hasn’t been in their sight for a while, and they haven’t been in touch. Who can say for sure if she likes Zhou Kai or not? No one can be certain.
She can’t bla Zhang Yu, so it’s her own issue.
What to do? Just then, Zhao Xuan thought of the perfect person to take the bla: Qiao Lili.
Yes, that’s right, Qiao Lili. Last ti when she got a bit close to him, they both were scolded harshly.
Looking at what Qiao Lili did that day, it was clear she was unhappy with Zhou Kai. "Xiao Kai, you know very well my parents have high expectations of ."
"I’m already worried about not getting into the rocket class. How do I explain to my parents why I didn’t do well, why I didn’t make it into the rocket class? That alone is making them quite angry."
"If they find out that I’m actually dating you, they would definitely freak out. My parents just want to get into a good college," Zhao Xuan said, half-truthfully.
Anyway, Zhao Xu’s parents hope she can get into college. Of course, whether it’s a prestigious school or not, they don’t put too much pressure on her.
After hearing this, the person who had mustered up the courage to confess fell silent. "Xiao Xuan, you don’t have to give an answer right now."
"You can take your ti to think about it. Give your answer after we’ve taken the college entrance exams." After all, he’s just a regular high school student right now, and no one can say for sure what the future holds.
Zhou Kai recalled Zhou Jian saying that Qiao Lili had her eyes set high, and if he didn’t achieve anything, it would only put Zhao Xuan in a difficult position.
To avoid putting Zhao Xuan in a difficult position, he was determined to work hard and get into a good college, so such a scenario wouldn’t happen.
"Xiao Xuan, don’t worry, I won’t make things difficult for you. I’ll certainly study hard and strive to get into a good college," Zhou Kai vowed silently, resolved to score well and attend a prestigious university.
Zhao Xuan was almost seething with rage. She was only trying to discuss whether she should shift to humanities, but instead, this guy kept on confessing and making so pointless promises about getting into a good college.
Co on, can’t she strive to get into a good college on her own? Does she have to rely on him?
If she didn’t want to listen to what he was saying, there was no need to discuss it with him. It was indeed a waste of ti and would be better to discuss it with her parents.
At least they are adults with experience and can certainly provide better choices. She firmly believed that whatever choice she made, her parents would support her.
Right, why would she insist on butting heads with this idiot? Clearly, that guy doesn’t have the brain of a smart person. Asking him is a waste of ti.
"What are you talking about?" Zhao Xuan stomped her foot shyly and then walked off.
Zhou Kai wanted to chase after her, but he thought about it, and if he chased after her now, they just might end up causing a scene outside for people to watch.
Thinking of this, he decided against the idea of chasing after her. "Co on, Zhou Kai, you can do it," he encouraged himself.
After rushing out, Zhao Xuan slowed down as she descended a flight of stairs. She couldn’t be impulsive, or the elderly around her might notice sothing was wrong, which could lead to trouble.
She walked down slowly, greeting the familiar grandmas and aunties along the way.
After she walked further away, a group of people gathered around. "You said last ti there was a big fuss. Qiao Lili gave that girl a good scolding when she got ho. Why would she co back again?" An old lady really didn’t understand.
The others also looked puzzled. "Yeah, last ti it was quite an unpleasant scene, and then suddenly, they turned around and started studying together again."
"Do you think they were really studying?" An old lady started a topic.
"That’s hard to say." Despite their age, they were still quite interested in such topics. "Originally, there were three of them, plus Zhang Family’s Girl."
"Now she’s gone solo, not hanging out with them. Just think about it. If there wasn’t an issue, why on earth would Zhang Family’s Girl suddenly not want to hang out with them?"
After hearing the old lady’s analysis, everyone had an enlightening expression. "Oh right, how did we not think of that."
"Indeed, it’s often said that Zhang Family’s Girl has a bad temper, but it’s just envy talking. She’s very easygoing."
"Exactly, she’s always cheerful and greets warmly whenever she sees . When she sees carrying sothing, she always offers to help."
These kids from the Zhang Family grew up right under their watch, so these old folks were very clear about each child’s personality.
"Indeed, they never think and just criticize other people’s kids. Just wait until the parents catch on, and do you think Zhang Tao and his wife will just let it slide?"
They really looked forward to disputes so they could enjoy the spectacle.
"Zhang Tao and his family are very busy. They have a restaurant that needs attention, and they’re also building sothing like a farmhouse in the countryside." An old man brought up Zhang Family’s activities and couldn’t help but sigh. His own child was about the sa age as Zhang Tao’s, and yet the difference between them was stark.
"Co on, you want your child to compare with Zhang Tao?"
"Yeah, here in the residential area, there really aren’t many who can compare with Zhang Tao and his wife."
"Exactly, when they first got married, they also had siblings to take care of. It wasn’t easy for them."
Everyone nodded in agreent, and then the conversation shifted to the courtyard. Who had successful children, who didn’t, whose grandchildren went abroad and made big money, who had marital and work issues, etc. The topics discussed were endless.
Zhao Xuan walked quite a distance away and looked back to see a group of people still gathered and talking. She patted her chest in relief. "What a bunch of people with nothing better to do. They have the energy to discuss everyone’s business, but can’t they go find a job and earn so money?"
Zhao Xuan felt irritable. Although it was hot outside, she didn’t want to go back. Going back felt so suffocating, it was better to stroll around outside and relax a bit.
