Afternoon, Shengzheng University!

After Xia Chenling packed up her textbooks and a few simple clothes, she hurried to the train station and made an appointment to return to Linzhou with Ding Shanshan.

Su Rong planned to stay in Shengzheng during the holidays, and planned to find a job for a work-study program. After some discussions with Gao Qianqian, she decided to work in a Western restaurant with her.

So, early in the morning, Su Rong and Gao Qianqian went to the Western restaurant.

Zhou Zhe had a tip from Gao Qianqian and had been waiting at the landline in the dormitory building in the morning. After receiving a call from Gao Qianqian, he went straight to the east gate of the school.

"Hey, Su Rong, Gao Qianqian!"

Seeing the two people approaching, Zhou Zhe walked over quickly, holding two glasses of milk in his hand.

"You haven't had breakfast yet."

Zhou Zhe smiled and handed over the milk.

"Eat...I've eaten, thank you."

Su Rong hurriedly waved her hand to refuse, but Gao Qianqian on the side smiled and took the two bottles of milk. After opening them and taking a sip, she said with a smile: "Zhou Zhe, I can't tell. I didn't expect you to be so careful."

"Ah ha ha!"

Zhou Zhe touched his head and smiled, looking very honest and honest.

"Just take it and drink it. We are all classmates, why are you doing this outside?"

Gao Qianqian stuffed the milk into Su Rong's arms and pulled her towards the bus stop, while Zhou Zhe followed them all the time.

"Huh? Zhou Zhe, where are you going?"

Su Rong raised her head, looked at Zhou Zhe, who was 1.9 meters tall, and asked with a smile.

"I, hehe, I'm also going to work in Gao Qianqian's Western restaurant."

"ah?"

Su Rong curled her lips and looked at Gao Qianqian again. Seeing that she kept snickering, she pulled her to speed up her pace.

…

Xia Chenling took a taxi and hurried to the station. At the agreed place, she saw Ding Shanshan smiling and waving to her.

The journey back to Linzhou from Beijing north passed through a group of green mountains. Xia Chenling sat by the window and admired the beautiful scenery along the way.

"Lingling, won't Su Rong go home?"

Ding Shanshan leaned on the seat, swaying her feet back and forth, and asked with a smile.

"Well, I won't reply. It seems... I think I have to go to work."

As she said that, Xia Chenling's forehead wrinkled slightly. Because of Xia Youyou, her relationship with Gao Qianqian had already changed.

It has dropped to freezing point, and the atmosphere in the dormitory has become weird. Except for Su Rong and Liu Shina, everyone seems to be deliberately avoiding me.

"Yes." Ding Shanshan nodded, and then said: "I also heard about her family's affairs later. They said that they were bankrupted by Gu Qingyuan?"

After saying that, Ding Shanshan looked at Xia Chenling with a gossipy face. Of course, she heard all this news from Zhang Shuai. The Normal College and the Physical Education College are very close to each other, so the two of them often meet.

"Ah? Who did you hear that...she was harmed by Gu Qingyuan?"

Xia Chenling looked at Ding Shanshan in confusion. Not many people knew about this matter.

"Zhang Shuai said that Gu Qingyuan deceived people into stock trading for his own personal gain. In the end, they lost everything, so he went to Shengzheng himself."

Ding Shanshan spoke very quickly and finished a large number of words in one breath.

"Zhang Shuai?"

Xia Chenling frowned slightly and asked in reply, and saw Ding Shanshan nodding vigorously twice.

"This incident in Su Rong's family started because of Gu Qingyuan, but it actually had nothing to do with Gu Qingyuan. At that time, he compensated their family 10,000 yuan. Later, it seems that he compensated their family because Su Zhengguo was too dark-hearted..."

Xia Chenling carefully told Ding Shanshan what she had learned, and when she saw her sitting up straight, she listened very carefully.

"Oh, that's it, then Gu Qingyuan has had enough of listening to men."

Ding Shanshan nodded and said.

Xia Chenling looked out the window, her eyes gradually becoming blurred, Gu Qingyuan, what kind of person is he? In short, he is very strange!

"By the way, do you have Gu Qingyuan's contact information?"

Ding Shanshan suddenly asked again, her cheeks turned red.

"ah?"

After Xia Chenling thought for a moment, she slowly said: "A classmate in our class was the one who helped us fight with Gu Qingyuan in that alley. They seem to have a good relationship?"

"Is it such a coincidence?"

Ding Shanshan opened her mouth wide with a look of disbelief.

"Yeah, I'm also wondering how it could be such a coincidence!" Xia Chenling smiled lightly.

"Then...can you do me a favor?"

Ding Shanshan said in a voice as loud as a mosquito.

"Huh? What are you busy with?"

"I...I seem...a little fond of Gu Qingyuan, can you help me?"

…

It was four o'clock in the afternoon when we returned to Linzhou. Xia Chenling and Xia Luo had already agreed that Xia Luo would pick her up at the train station when they arrived.

Unexpectedly, she received a text message with only one word "busy" from Xia Luo. Xia Chenling said that she could only take a taxi back because the train station was still some distance away from her home.

"Uncle Xia won't come to pick you up?"

Seeing Xia Chenling pouting, Ding Shanshan beside her asked with a smile.

"Um."

Xia Chenling nodded, feeling uneasy. Recently, Xia Luo has become particularly irritable. Originally, father and daughter made an appointment to make a family phone call every night. Recently, Xia Luo has forgotten about her. Every time Xia Chenling

If you call me, you will hang up the phone in a hurry.

After hailing a taxi, the two of them drove to their long-lost home.

As soon as Ding Shanshan arrived home, Ding Chuan greeted her with a smile, took the backpack from her daughter's hand, and said with a smile: "Welcome the future people's teachers home!"

"hey-hey!"

Ding Shanshan laughed sheepishly and said, "It's still early. The school still has many qualification certificates to take."

"Hey, I'm not worried about my daughter. She will study hard in school and come back to Linzhou No. 1 Middle School to be a teacher in the future!" Ding Chuan put his backpack on the desk, poured a glass of cold water for Ding Shanshan, and handed it to her.

in hand.

"Um."

Ding Shanshan nodded, took the cold drink, and drank heavily. In fact, deep down in her heart, she had already been fascinated by the city of Shengzheng. She wanted to stay in Shengzheng, but Ding Shanshan never seemed to refuse.

Her father's requirements for her made her a particularly unassertive girl.

"Okay, come to the kitchen and serve the food. My baby girl is starving."

Sun Ping walked out of the kitchen, took off her scarf, and held Ding Shanshan in her arms with a smile on her face, "Let mom see, she seems to be tanned."

"Yeah!" Ding Shanshan nodded aggrievedly, "I was burned out during military training."

"Oh, poor my daughter. Oh? I said, Old Ding, what are you doing here? Why don't you go in and serve the food?"

Sun Ping was smiling one second, but frowned the next and yelled at Ding Chuan.

Ding Shanshan pursed her lips just because she heard the word "Old Ding"!

When Xia Chenling returned home, Liu Yun was the only one at home.

"Mom, I'm back."

As soon as she opened the door, Xia Chenling couldn't wait to scream and threw herself into Liu Yun's arms.

"Well, mom has cooked your favorite dish for you, come over and eat it."

Liu Yun said with a smile, but her voice was weak and her face was haggard, as if she had not had a good rest.

"Mom, what's wrong with you? Have you cried?"

Xia Chenling looked at Liu Yun's red and swollen eyes, widened her eyes and asked worriedly.

"No...no, but...maybe I haven't had much rest recently."

Liu Yun glanced upward, unnaturally, obviously lying.

"Where's my dad? Is he busy at work?"

"Hmm...well, he hasn't been busy lately!"

Liu Yun took Xia Chenling's schoolbag, put it on the counter, and said, "Sit down first, and mom will bring you food." After that, she walked quickly to the kitchen.

There were only two people eating, so Liu Yun simply prepared two of Xia Chenling's favorite dishes, placed them on the dining table, filled them with rice, and ate together.
