Chapter 148: What if her family finds out and doesn't agree to you two dating?

Haishi.

Yu Lizhen was helping Shen Zhaozhao pack the down jacket she would wear to Di Du for the winter. This down jacket was bought at a specialty store this morning while shopping; the two pieces together cost more than 30,000, and that was the discounted price. For their family's level, this wasn't very expensive.

You definitely have to wear something better; the consumption and prices there are high, and you get what you pay for. If it's too poor, it won't keep you warm.

"... Zhaozhao, did the teacher say when your math competition results will come out?"

Shen Zhaozhao walked to her mother's side, watching her pack her luggage, feeling warm in her heart, "Yes, the teacher said you can check the results online before the eighth week after the exam. The four of us in the group have the best results, Mom doesn't need to worry, we will definitely take first place in the finals, and... there is a lot of prize money. When the time comes, I will bring it all back to honor Mom."

Qingbei University is the best university; no matter how you look at it, this first place must belong to them.

She happily told her mother this good news, but Yu Lizhen wasn't as happy for her as she looked, and instead asked her: "Has your sister contacted you recently?"

"It's been so long, she's not sensible at all, and I don't know how long she's going to throw a tantrum."

Shen Zhaozhao's smile froze at the corner of her mouth, and after a moment, it returned to normal, "Mom, you don't need to worry about sister. Sister has been smart since she was a child, no matter where she is, she will live well."

"Sister is at Grandma's house, she won't have any problems."

"Mom, let's go to the French restaurant we agreed on earlier to eat later, and then you can send me to the airport, okay." Shen Zhaozhao hugged Yu Lizhen's arm and acted like a spoiled child, with an LV silver bracelet hanging on her wrist.

Yu Lizhen felt an indescribable irritability in her chest. Since she was a child, Shen Li had never needed her to worry, let alone run away from home.

She hadn't even gone this long without contacting the family, and even when her card was frozen, she had never asked the family for a penny. When did their relationship become so estranged?

It was just a quota, why bother to be so angry with her.

At worst, she could just take the exam again.

With her ability, repeating a year and getting into it again wouldn't be a difficult task.

Acting like a spoiled child was a trick Shen Zhaozhao had used since she was a child, and Mom and Dad couldn't handle her; every one of them worked.

But this time, Yu Lizhen refused her for the first time: "Zhaozhao, Mom is a bit busy, I have to hold a student meeting for the third-year high school students on Monday, and I have to make lesson plans."

"How about this... Mom will give you two thousand more in living expenses, you can take a taxi to the airport yourself, Mom won't send you there."

Shen Zhaozhao was a bit reluctant in her heart, but she still agreed, "Alright then, thank you Mom." After saying that, she kissed Yu Lizhen on the face.

Shen Zhaozhao dragged her suitcase and left the residential area. Seeing her get into the car, Yu Lizhen turned around and returned home.

Seeing that tightly closed room door, she stood outside the door for a while, and the next second, as if by some strange trick of fate, she had an indescribable feeling in her heart, and stepped forward to open the door.

The scent of dust that hadn't been cleaned for a long time rushed toward her face, and the room was pitch black.

Yu Lizhen reached out and touched the light on the wall to turn it on.

A very small room, without windows, gave an inexplicable sense of oppression.

In this small room, there was only a simple bed, a desk, and a wardrobe; there weren't many other things, which was indeed a world of difference from the bedroom next door.

The bed was clean and tidy, with folded sheets and quilts; there was a dusty smell of not having been lived in for a long time, but it was also spotlessly clean.

She walked closer slowly; on the table were books from the first year to the third year of high school, stacked very high, so many that it seemed there was no place to put them.

She took a step, and her toe kicked something; she looked down, it was that stack of study materials.

Zhaozhao had a very large dressing table, and Yu Lizhen rarely saw books on the table; they were basically skincare and cosmetics she bought for her.

The room was also messy, and every time she cleaned her room, it took a long time.

Her heart suddenly felt tight, and an indescribable feeling surged up.

Yu Lizhen's gaze softened bit by bit.

In less than fifteen steps, she had reached the end of the room.

She turned around and suddenly wanted to look at the wardrobe.

The wardrobe door was slowly pulled open. The moment she saw it clearly, the fingertips she had resting on the edge of the sliding door trembled slightly; it was actually empty inside.

She had clearly bought her many clothes, where did they go?

Inside were a few old clothes that had been washed until they were a bit white, folded squarely in the corner. There were only two winter coats, and the rest were a few school uniforms she wore during high school; other than that... there was nothing else.

She thought of Shen Zhaozhao's wardrobe, which was full of designer dresses she had carefully selected, cashmere knitwear, clothes for all four seasons classified, and even special compartments for accessories.

No matter how many clothes Yu Lizhen bought for her, she could always hear her say that her clothes were "not enough to wear."

The room was more than half bigger, and even such a small wardrobe was almost empty.

Shen Li lay on the bed, staring at the ceiling above her head, thinking about some things.

Xie Qin wanted to repeat a year with her, but her family situation was a bit complicated. Repeating a year required identity proof and a transfer certificate. To get these things, she had to go back to Haishi to get them.

These were all kept in the family safe, and she didn't know the password herself. If they knew she was repeating a year with Xie Qin, they would be even less likely to agree.

Since she was a child, her family had been stricter with her, unlike Xie Qin who was free and easy; her concerns would be very great.

"Shen Li!"

"Ah?" Hearing the voice, she came back to her senses, "What's wrong?"

Zhang Zixin looked at her strangely, "I've called you several times."

"Xie Qin asked Xu Zhouyuan to find me and tell you to reply to his message."

Shen Li: "Okay."

Picking up her phone again, the message above the dialog box was Xie Qin asking her to prepare the materials for repeating a year. Thinking about it, she finally sent it to him: 【Let's talk about it next year, okay? In a while, the school will be on holiday soon.】

Xie Qin replied with an 【OK】 gesture.

Billiard room.

Xie Qin replied to the last message and put his phone on the side. Xu Zhouyuan was still playing a ranked game with Zhang Zixin, and he was sitting with his legs crossed, looking like a rogue.

Xu Zhouyuan stared at the screen and rambled on a lot: "Brother Qin, do you know that you've almost become her father. Her old man isn't in a hurry, but you are. It's the first time I've seen a boyfriend urging his girlfriend to repeat a year. And you still want people to follow you in Wuchuan, I think you're thinking too beautifully."

"What if her family finds out and doesn't agree to you two dating, and doesn't let her repeat a year with you in Wuchuan, what will you do?" ===== CHAPTER 149 =====
