Chapter 232: What You See Is Not Necessarily True (Part II)

oh my god!

After listening to the bearded man's narration, Jolene's first reaction was this.

She thinks she's not conservative, but she can't imagine her sister starting a transnational relationship, and her parents can't accept it. But then I think about it, my aunt is still in a transnational relationship, and my parents didn't say anything! It's not right, my aunt has been wandering outside for many years after all, and my parents can't control her.

The bearded man looked at her with a grin, and Jolene was furious. Everyone has confessed to themselves, they have to make a statement, right? But Jolene really didn't know what to say, praised him for his vision, and dug up a big baby like his sister? Or cheer for him and let him chase his sister?

But she couldn't tell, maybe subconsciously, she didn't really want the beard to be her sister's final destination, although he was an elitist figure.

Jolene had to ask stupidly, "What's my sister's reaction?"

"No, but there was no refusal either, she said she didn't want to be in a relationship 'for the time being'. People who study law are very good at picking words, and the bearded man said: "She said that she needs a cooling-off period, which is also considered etiquette to her ex." ”

For the first time, Jolene wondered if he was a fake elite, he was obviously rejected by his sister, and he also anesthetized himself by picking out words!

In Qiao Lin's opinion, her sister must not have forgotten Xu Wei, the big boy who held her in the palm of her hand. How good was Xu Wei to her? She was in pain, he would make ginger jujube tea, put it in a thermos cup, and send it to her early in the morning; when she shivered, he would put his coat on her, or unbutton her, and hold her in his arms; once in a heavy rainstorm, he drove to the laboratory to pick her up, and there was a big puddle under the steps, and he was reluctant to step on her, so he insisted on carrying her over, and he himself was half wet.

Qiao Nan vowed to protect his sister, but he couldn't do this, and Qiao Lin was the most clingy to her sister, but she was also a careless ghost, and she couldn't even do half of Xu Wei's.

The strong woman Qiao Lu was spoiled by him as a little princess, so how could she forget?

In the few days when her sister was in Beijing, Qiao Lin once asked her, if she really couldn't let go, could she take the initiative to reconcile with Brother Xu Wei?

Qiao Lu immediately became indifferent: "Impossible, what happened in the past, he has no shame at all, how can I forgive him?"

So, Xu Wei changed his girlfriend like a marquee, and Qiao Lu guarded the cold experimental table alone. But Jolene knew that the two of them seemed to be living their lives freely, but it wasn't like that at all. What can be seen by others is certainly not everything.

There are so many crazy men and women in this world, Jolene can't control it, she has more things to do. Wei Chenglin's application to the school has reached the final sprint stage, and Qiao Lin helped him revise his self-introduction over and over again, and of course, Xu Na and Sun Ruiyang also helped a lot. Qiao Lin heard from her mother that Wei Chenglin once practiced the piano until he went crazy, and in the past few days, he has learned English and gone crazy.

He is now in the second middle school, temporarily following the repeat class, and only takes English class. It stands to reason that Wei Chenglin's English level should find a tutor, but his family's economic conditions are there, and it is not realistic to find a tutor. Li Lanzhi helped him communicate with the school and arranged him in the repeat class.

The English teacher of the repeat class happened to be Qiao Nan's homeroom teacher Lu that year, and she was the leader of the English class of the second middle school. The learning method she provided to Wei Chenglin was to find a VOA slow news, dictate the sentences, and after dictation, then compare the original text to see where I heard it wrong or didn't hear it, and finally spent a day memorizing the news.

This is one of the most commonly used methods of simultaneous interpretation in foreign language training, and the difficulty is self-evident. Wei Chenglin wrote ten new words in the first dictation, and he was so frustrated that he tore up the book. But when he had eaten the first one thoroughly, he could hear several sentences in the second one. After practicing day and night for a month, Wei Chenglin's English level can kill most of the students in the repeating class.

Of course, it is limited to the level of English, and when it comes to other subjects, it is still a mess.

He often spoke English to his grandmother in a half-asleep state, which scared his grandmother to think that her grandson was crazy, and felt that he was really working too hard, and it was better not to go to the United States.

However, it is impossible for Wei Chenglin to retreat, and he has no way to retreat. Walked to the edge of the cliff, the fighting spirit of his whole body was stimulated, he still didn't believe it, he worked so hard, will fate treat him badly?

Wei Chenglin wanted to save a lot of intermediary fees, and all the materials had to be prepared by himself. Thanks to Sun Ruiyang's return to Hong Kong City during the May Day period, with his help, Wei Chenglin successfully sent the materials to the United States. On the way home from the post office, Sun Ruiyang patted him on the shoulder and said, "Cheng Lin, when you look back in ten years, you will find that you are really × now!"

Wei Chenglin bit his lip and thought, I hope that day will come sooner.

After the documents are reviewed, it is time to prepare for the interview. Wei Chenglin thought about a few questions, translated them into English by himself, and then asked Qiao Lin to help him revise them. In the process of revision, Qiao Lin had only one thought - three days of Shibei, when he was impressed, Wei Chenglin's English level was like a rocket, soaring into the sky.

Listening to Wei Chenglin, Zhao Linlin is now studying hard with her classmates, and she can be ranked in the top ten in the repeat class, and it seems that this year is inevitable. Qiao Lin knew that after learning about her mother's humiliation, Zhao Linlin had no way out, and she had to fight her way out and escape with her mother.

Wei Chenglin said slyly: "I don't think it's necessary, right?

"Huh?"

"Hey, there are several pictures she drew herself in her stationery box, all of them are boys in military uniforms, who is not Brother Qiao Nan?"

Alas, she behaved so obviously, then it is not to blame others for knowing. Jolene wants to wake up her best friend, don't have those unrealistic dreams, her brother won't treat her as a girlfriend at all!

By the end of May, when the class counted their intentions to go abroad for the next semester, only three or four people in the class raised their hands. Jolene originally wanted to exchange it in her sophomore year, but as soon as her uncle had surgery, the family's money was spent again. Exchange students do not have to pay foreign tuition, but they still need to freeze $10,000 and open a certificate of deposit, and the family will definitely not be able to come up with the money.

For those who have no money, money is always the root of all evil. But the family's money was used by her uncle and saved his life, and Jolene didn't feel sorry for it at all.

The other classmates were a little strange, Jolene clearly said that she wanted to go abroad in her sophomore year, but she didn't know why she suddenly changed her hexagram. Jolene smiled: "I have other plans, just go out for a semester in my junior year." ”

That being said, Sun Ruiyang knew very well that his girlfriend's plan was disrupted, and she must still be very disappointed in her heart. Jolene said coolly: "It's good to be able to go abroad, but this opportunity is extra, if it can be realized, it will be a surprise, if it can't be realized, it is fate has not yet arrived, and it will be fought for later." ”

Sun Ruiyang rubbed her bangs vigorously, and said with a smile: "You are so likeable, but what should I do?"

Jolene smiled innocently and asked, "Do you know which country I would most like to go to?"

"Italy, of course!"

Jolene shook her head and said, "But we don't have schools in Italy to go to, most of them are the United States, the United Kingdom, Malaysia, and Japan. I think it's good to be able to go to an English-speaking country, but even if I don't go to an English-speaking country, I'll be able to practice my speaking very well. So, I want to go to a new country, to be exposed to a whole new language, to see a whole new world!"

"Yo yo yo, the idea is getting more and more mature!"

"I want to go to Japan. Although I have mixed feelings about this country, I think there is always something to learn from it, and I am really curious. ”

Sun Ruiyang was not surprised by this answer: "It's good to go to Japan, at least it's close to home, and it doesn't even take two hours to fly from the port city." ”

Jolene added, "There's another reason why I want to go to Japan. ”

"What?"

"I want to go to Kamakura and take a picture of my back when the sun goes down. ”

Sun Ruiyang immediately laughed: "This can be had! If you really want to go, you must call me, I will go with you!"

Qiao Lin nodded vigorously, it is so beautiful to have a dream to do, this dream is still done with Sun Ruiyang. As he grew up, he became more and more like Fujima, and Jolene couldn't get enough of it. Thinking about it this way, it's good that you don't go out in your sophomore year, at least you can continue to be with him.

Regarding Qiao Lin's giving up her sophomore year and going abroad, the most gratifying person should be Liu Zheng. Deep down, she didn't want to compete with Jolene, worried that she would take up a place in a good school and squeeze herself into a corner.

Qiao Lin hadn't thought about this, or rather, she didn't regard Liu Zheng as a competitor at all, and it was not easy to do her own thing, where did she have so much energy to think about anything else?

Before May was over, Jolene couldn't wait to plan her summer vacation itinerary, she would go to see her brother first, and then go home. That night, she called her brother on the balcony, originally wanting to complain about Liu Positive, so that her brother shot her suddenly. Unexpectedly, my brother was very depressed, and under Qiao Lin's repeated questioning, he said that a comrade-in-arms had died.

Jolene's complaints were all swallowed back into her stomach.

She wanted to ask her brother if it was the person she had seen last time, how he died, and when did it happen? But her brother's words could only end there, "my comrades died", and nothing else.

"Brother...... Are you in danger?"

"It's in danger, I didn't go at all!" the brother's voice rose sharply, with excitement and remorse.

Jolene wanted to say "That's great", but felt that it shouldn't be said, it would be too unfair to the sacrificed warrior to say it. For the elder brother, death can come at any time, and peace and health are luxuries.

Qiao Lin changed the conversation and asked boldly, "Brother, have you never been in contact with Wen Jing again?"

"Nope!"

"She became a model. ”

“...... Oh, that's good. ”

Not long ago, Wang Keke bought back a fashion magazine, and when he saw Wen Jing's photo, he was as surprised as discovering a new continent. But Jolene wasn't surprised at all, she had long expected her to take this path. In that issue of the magazine, she filmed a whole set of summer dressing guides, whether pure and sweet, or retro and elegant, or simple and capable, all of which she interpreted perfectly.

She has her own stage name, called Tracy, instead of the familiar Wen Jing.

In that set of fashion photos, Tracy's height and weight are described in detail, as well as three-dimensional. As a model, her figure is a little flatter, but she is better than her outstanding temperament, the kind of temperament that is used to seeing the prosperity of the world, but disdainful of prosperity.

That day, Wang Keke chirped: "The first time I saw her, I thought she was not an ordinary person, but I didn't expect to really be a model! Jolene, you can help me get an autograph, and I can show off to my classmates." ”

“...... I haven't been in touch with her for a long time. ”

Like this kind of passer-by in life, if you miss it, you miss it, and there is no need to dwell on it anymore. But Jolene looked at that set of photos, no matter how she looked at it, she could see a sense of loneliness.

Perhaps, she is not as beautiful as she seems!
