[3Qβ Γ· β .], wonderful free reading without pop-ups!
As the sun set, the sky in the distance was dyed with a brilliant red glow, Liao Qingmei stopped because of Fang Qinglan's words, looked up at the sunset in the distance, and the corners of her mouth hooked slightly.
No one can fulfill her.
Liao Qingmei only paused for two seconds, and then left without looking back, in Fang Qinglan's eyes, it was Liao Qingmei who completely disdained her so-called fulfillment.
Also, why do you need her to fulfill it? Fang Qinglan lowered her head, what qualifications does she have, in this relationship, she is an intruder and a saboteur.
Liao Qingmei didn't know that Fang Qinglan had thought so much in an instant, she was thinking about her previous life.
In her previous life, when did Fang Qinglan leave Fang Zhicheng?
After a long time, I almost couldn't remember it, it seemed that it was after Fang Zhicheng was injured, but he didn't leave immediately, but after a while, after a big fuss in the Fang family, he left.
She never knew the specific reason, at that time, she was only happy that Fang Qinglan finally got interested and left, where would she think about the deeper reason.
Coupled with Fang's mother's unclear words, Liao Qingmei always thought that Fang Qinglan was the kind of snobbish woman who put interests first and ignored her injured husband.
Otherwise, how could she leave her young son and crippled husband behind and fly away?
But after seeing it, Liao Qingmei realized how wrong she was.
Fang Qinglan's appearance at this time was obviously that she loved Fang Zhicheng miserably, so she would think about him in everything and put him first in everything.
It wasn't until she couldn't look at Liao Qingmei's figure that Fang Qinglan tried to pack up her emotions and go home.
She really wants to fulfill Liao Qingmei and Fang Zhicheng, Fang Zhicheng doesn't have her in his heart, and she doesn't disdain to have a marriage with only responsibilities, even if it ...... She loved him again.
However, obviously Liao Qingmei disdains her humble fulfillment, Fang Qinglan smiled bitterly, too, she has her own pride, let alone an excellent girl like Liao Qingmei.
returned home in despair, but I didn't expect Fang Zhicheng, who had always been able to go home without going home, to sit in the house, looking like that, obviously waiting for her.
"Why are you back? Have you eaten? I'll roll out the noodles and give you something to eat." Fang Qinglan was a little flattered, wiped her face nonsense, and immediately cheered up nervously, and prepared to go to the kitchen to cook with the matter while asking.
"Are you looking for her?" Fang Zhicheng sat with his back to her, and slowly spoke, his voice was low and suppressed, and he knew that she was in a very bad mood when he listened.
Fang Qinglan, who walked to the door of the room, stopped and replied sullenly, "Hmm." β
She went to Liao Qingmei, and she didn't think about hiding it from him, but she didn't expect that he would be so directly accountable, she thought that he would at least think about her mood a little.
Fang Qinglan smiled bitterly, she was still asking for extravagance.
"Fang Qinglan, isn't it good for us to live a good life? What are you going to do with her? Don't listen to the wind or the rain, you will believe what others say!" Fang Zhicheng suddenly stood up from his chair and looked at Fang Qinglan coldly.
"You tell me if there's anything I'm not doing well, and I'll change it. β
The huge loss instantly overwhelmed Fang Qinglan, and she slumped her shoulders, "You're good at everything, it's me who is bad, I'm sorry." β
After speaking, Fang Qinglan didn't want to speak anymore, so she returned to the house and silently picked up the noodles, preparing to go below, "You wait at home, I'll cook the noodles." β
"Okay, I won't eat!" Fang Zhicheng was tired, stretched out his hand and twisted his eyebrows, and sighed heavily, "I found you a job, you go to work, don't stay with those people with broken mouths all day." β
"Oh, okay!" Fang Qinglan answered in a hoarse voice, and seeing that Fang Zhicheng had nothing else to explain, she walked out of the room with her head covered.
It only takes five minutes to cook a bowl of noodles at most, and when Fang Qinglan entered the house with a specially lay egg noodle, there was no longer Fang Zhicheng's figure in the room.
Putting the noodles on the table, Fang Qinglan looked at the steaming hot noodle soup, tears sliding down the corners of her eyes.
This time, she didn't destroy herself again, silently pretending that nothing had happened, but put it on the table and didn't touch it again.
When Fang Zhicheng, who had finished training late at night, came home, there was a bowl of noodles that had long been broken on the table in the hall, and there was an extra marching bed in the living room, and there were all kinds of bedding and pillows.
Is this going to have a cold war with him?!
He didn't even think to knock on the door, and when he was done, he went straight to sleep on the marching bed.
When she got up the next morning, what Fang Qinglan saw was a neatly arranged house, clean and deserted, with no residual warmth, and there was no breath of another person's existence at all.
The tension between Fang Zhicheng and his wife did not affect Liao Qingmei's mood.
Even Fang Qinglan's sudden appearance did not leave too many fluctuations in Liao Qingmei's heart, but she was more relieved about the past.
No one can judge what happened before, and who is right and who is wrong, and it can no longer be investigated.
Fortunately, the wheel of fate is returned, and everything has the possibility of starting over.
The holiday passed quickly in Liao's mother's chatter, and early in the morning of the 15th, Liao Qingmei checked the items she must bring and went out refreshed.
At this time, there is no practice of parents sending the exam, although the college entrance examination is important, but life must go on, Liao's father feels that the college entrance examination is just a "trivial matter", his daughter must have no problem, and Liao's mother is completely reluctant to ask for leave and be deducted money, only deliberately boiled two more eggs for Liao Qingmei in the morning.
Liao Haoyu, the only one who was idle, wanted to send it, but was directly rejected by Liao Qingmei.
This kind of weather is not easy to wait outside the school, and the location of their exam is in County No. 1 Middle School, she has to go to the school to gather first, and then go to the examination room in a unified manner, it doesn't matter if Liao Haoyu goes or not.
It saves her from worrying about him starving from heat stroke in the examination room, so it is better to stay at home honestly.
The two days of the college entrance examination passed quickly, and Liao Qingmei, who originally thought that she would be so nervous that she couldn't do it, really went to the examination room and calmed down.
In her opinion, the questions in the exam are not too difficult, and there are even a few questions in the middle that she jokingly bets on.
In her previous life, suffering was also an experience, she lost a lot, but at the same time she gained a lot, at least her current mentality is not at all like the mentality of a fresh student, too calm and natural.
Because of her normal mentality and simple test papers, Liao Qingmei felt that she was very likely to perform extraordinarily.
After the exam, there is a routine assessment, and the results of the assessment really exceed the pre-test estimates, Liao Qingmei discussed with the teacher, and filled in the school that she had already considered.
At this time, according to the principle of merit-based admission and unified adjustment, the role of volunteers is not large, and they are basically based on grades, but whether there is a role or not, volunteers still have to be filled.
Liao Qingmei had already thought about the path she wanted to take in the future, her first choice was a well-known normal school in the province, and her second choice was the county health school.
Teacher and doctor are the most ideal careers in her mind, the former has more time to spend with her parents, and the latter is to take better care of her parents in the future.
After coming out of the teacher's office, Liao Qingmei has been waiting for Ren Guiyun in the classroom.
But waiting left and right, I didn't see her appearing, and I asked the teacher to know that Ren Guiyun came to school with his family early today, and went home directly after estimating the score and filling in the volunteers.
Obviously, the two of them had made an appointment before, but they were released for some reason, no matter how big Liao Qingmei's heart was, she couldn't feel better.
"Qingmei?" At eleven o'clock, Xu Lin saw that there were more people in the office, and after estimating the score, he took out the volunteer form.
I didn't expect to see Liao Qingmei, who was pale, and I couldn't help but feel a little excited in my heart.
"Deputy squad leader. Liao Qingmei greeted with a smile.
Seeing that Xu Lin's condition seemed to be good, Liao Qingmei breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, as long as it didn't affect him because of her.
Xu Lin touched the back of his head embarrassedly, "Don't call me the deputy squad leader anymore, you can call me Xu Lin." β
Liao Qingmei smiled and nodded kindly, "Okay, Xu Lin." β
Xu Lin smiled, touched the back of his head again, and responded a little embarrassedly.
Outside the classroom, the class leader leaned against the wall, his hands clenched tightly, his heart ached, and he wanted to rush in and slap Liao Qingmei twice, but there was a voice in his heart that kept reminding him that she was not qualified.
After saying hello, the atmosphere between the two was a little awkward, seeing Xu Lin holding the volunteer form, Liao Qingmei took the initiative to find the topic, "What school are you going to fill in?"
"I want to study physics at a science and engineering university, and I'm more interested in that. Xu Lin was still a little embarrassed, and when he heard Liao Qingmei ask, he immediately replied in a precarious manner.
Liao Qingmei couldn't hold back and laughed.
"What about you?" Xu Lin also knew that he was too nervous, and when he saw Liao Qingmei laughing, he gradually relaxed and tried to take the initiative to find a topic.
Speaking of which, since he had a good impression of Liao Qingmei, the rejection before the college entrance examination is not counted, this is their first official chat, and it is still about the future of the big thing.
For the first time, Xu Lin felt that it might be easier for the two of them to be friends.
Liao Qingmei said that her school, in fact, Xu Lin had already secretly looked at it when she was in the office, nodded when she heard this, praised the benefits of the two schools, and asked about Gu Minglang instead.
"The one that day, who looks like a soldier, is your fiancΓ©, right?" Although he wanted to be a friend, Xu Lin still felt a little uncomfortable when he asked this, but fortunately, he could barely maintain the smile on his face.
"......?" Liao Qingmei was a little confused.
It took a while to react, and the person Xu Lin said was Gu Minglang.
She just used the matter of the doll kiss as an excuse that day, trying to dispel Xu Lin's thoughts, but if he asked so now, Liao Qingmei still nodded lightly.
"Hmm!"
Waiting for her exact response again, Xu Lin felt as if his heart had finally been put into practice, but the moment he landed, it hurt and hurt.
"I think he's good and worthy of you. β
Liao Qingmei smiled and did not comment.
As he spoke, Xu Lin had already filled out the volunteer form, in fact, after coming out of the office, before meeting Liao Qingmei, he originally wanted to change the volunteer to be the same as Liao Qingmei.
But now...... He chose to go along with his heart.
Yang raised the volunteer form in his hand, "I'll go to the office to hand in the volunteer form, Liao Qingmei, thank you, and bless you, I hope you can be admitted to a good school and live an ideal life." β
Outside the classroom, the clenched fists quietly loosened, and a relieved smile hung on the tearful cheeks, and quietly left.
"Thank you, and so do you. β
