Chapter 15: Confrontation

The sunlight illuminated the room, shining through the glass, casting dappled shadows on the walls, the room was silent, the quilts on the bed were neatly folded, the mobile phone on the dresser vibrated from time to time, and a few unread messages were displayed on the screen.

Lin Duo came out of the bathroom, picked up a long bath towel and wiped her hair, it was rare for her to be so idle, today she rested, but she got up early, this has become a habit, every day when it is time to get up, she can't sleep. The weather is good today, and she plans to go to the beach for a walk, and by the way, talk to Meng He.

She hadn't spoken to Meng He for a long time, and it was a bit abnormal. She still remembers that when she first came to City C, she often chatted with Meng He, and the two of them chatted for most of the day, and she would rather drag her tired body into the company the next day than talk to Meng He until late. And recently, Meng He doesn't seem to call much, he seems to have disappeared. This made her feel unsteady in her heart. In the past, Meng Hehui took the initiative to call from time to time, but now, he seemed to have forgotten her.

Lin Duo dressed himself up, picked up his handbag and went out.

City C is a city surrounded by the sea on three sides, a bit like an island, the locals here have long lost interest in the sea, they have grown up listening to the sound of the sea crashing against the reef since they were born, but for outsiders, the sea is the most beautiful scenery, deeply attracting people's hearts. Lin Duo got into a taxi and came to Flower Umbrella Street. Getting out of the car, she squinted her eyes and saw the endless sky blue behind the golden sand beach in front of her. Suddenly, all the distress in her heart disappeared.

This is the place she's always wanted to be, and it's the place she's always dreamed of. One of the reasons she chose to work in the city is that she loves the sea. She still remembers that before she came here, she searched for information about City C on the Internet, and when she saw pictures of this city almost surrounded by the ocean, she decided that she must settle here. She loves the sea, and sometimes, she even thinks about marrying a man who grew up by the sea. Because in his veins is the ocean.

Lin Duo has not forgotten her arrangements for today, she plans to eat at the beach, and then rent parasols and deck chairs to enjoy this hard-won vacation. However, she had to talk to Meng He first, which was part of her plan today.

Lin Duo dialed Meng He's phone and put it to his ear.

It took a long time for the phone to ring.

"Heyβ€”"

Meng He's voice was lazy and weak, and Lin Duo knew that he was still sleeping.

"Haven't you gotten up yet? It's not a Saturday or weekend, and you don't go to class during the day?"

"No, what time is it, and I'm going to catch up with class. ”

"Again, if you continue like this, you will fail. ”

"No, don't worry, I'll review a month before the exam, Duo'er, is there anything wrong with your call, if there's nothing wrong, I'm going to sleep." ”

"Sleep again!" Lin Duo was angry when he heard him say the word sleep.

"yes - I slept too late last night and didn't hear the alarm clock, so the daytime class was delayed. ”

"But didn't your roommate wake you up?

"They're all still lying on their beds. ”

"It must be playing games again at night, right? I've told you many times that playing games don't delay your classes during the day, you always don't listen, and if you continue like this, your studies will be ruined sooner or later. ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Duo'er, you're so annoying, every time you call, you count me down, you're my girlfriend, not my mother, OK?"

......Alas, well, I'm not your mother, and I don't have the right to discipline you. I called today to tell you about the two of us. ”

"What is there to say about the two of us, when I graduate, let's get married. ”

"Really, you will get married after graduation? But what are you going to get married? You will not graduate for another year, and you have just graduated, and your job is not stable, what are you going to get married?"

"What's the hurry, there's only one year left, don't you believe me?"

"You know, now I work two jobs. ”

"Really, why do you have to work two jobs? Can you afford it?"

"Why? It's not for the future of the two of us, I'm working so hard, it's all for the two of us, you know?"

"Duo'er, why are you working so hard, shouldn't life be happy? You are so tired of working every day that you will be exhausted one day. ”

"If I don't work a little harder, I don't see hope for our future. Moreover, you are like this, you are not self-motivated at all, which makes me really sad. ”

"You're here again! Didn't I just not go to class today? So what? The morning classes are all liberal arts, and you can memorize the books for the exam money, and there's nothing to lose, you're not going to do it all the time. ”

"Meng He, okay, even if what you said makes sense, even if you skipped class today and escaped right. So, let me ask you, what are the problems that the two of us face after graduation, you know?"

"Say it, I'd like to hear your answer first. ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Well, I'll get straight to the point. After graduation, the two of us are faced with the problem of where to work, and we are also faced with the problem of survival, which for us, is indeed something that needs to be faced and solved. ”

"That's all, anything else?"

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Not for the time being. ”

"None of this is a problem for me. ”

"But for me, it's a big problem!"

"Don't you think that's an exaggeration?"

"Meng He! Let me ask you, you have graduated, you are facing a job, you are facing marriage, have you ever thought about buying a house? Now I am working so hard precisely because I want to buy a house, I hope you can share it with me, do you know how much pressure I have?"

"Why do you want to buy a house? My villa has been idle for two years, and I can live in it after renovating it a few months before I get married, so why do I want to buy a house?"

"But it's your parents' property, not yours. Okay, let me ask you again, where do you plan to work after graduation? I want you to come to City C to work hard with me and work together for our future, what do you think?"

"I'm really angry, this is exactly what I have wanted to discuss with you for a long time, and I will take this opportunity to make it clear to you today. Duo'er, you went to City C after graduation, and you took my words as wind in your ears at all. I told you a long time ago, you don't have to worry about the two of us, and you don't have to worry about your future, I thought you went to work in City C to experience life, but I didn't expect you to make money and buy a house, do you really plan to live there?"

"That's right, I just plan to live in this city, and I want you to come over, Meng He, can you promise me?"

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

"Meng He, you speak, why don't you answer my question......"
