Chen Qingdong didn't know that Chen Lu had such a life experience, he couldn't help but sympathize with Chen Lu very much, and he had more good feelings for her, no matter what, this is a girl who is unwilling to be reconciled to the arrangement of fate and has the courage to pursue her dreams!

All those who work hard deserve to be respected. [Latest chapter reading.]

At this time, Chen Lu also asked, "Secretary Chen, is this experience of mine that surprised you?"

Chen Qingdong said: "Indeed, I only knew that you were from an ordinary family, but I didn't know that you had such an experience. ”

Chen Lu laughed at herself: "In fact, in those years, I don't know how many girls have suffered the same as me, maybe the vast majority of girls have chosen to compromise, cold-blooded people like me who do not hesitate to cut off relations with their families, after all, they are a minority." ”

Chen Qingdong said: "Chen Lu, you are definitely not cold-blooded, but a manifestation of courage to resist fate, no matter what others think of your approach, I think you do this, it is very worthy of respect!"

Chen Lu was very moved, she didn't expect Chen Qingdong to use the word "respect" to describe her approach. Before hearing Chen Qingdong's words, some people knew about her experience, but no one gave her such an evaluation, and at most they just expressed sympathy for her! There were even some people who directly regarded this incident as a funny story, and would ridicule her.

In fact, in Chen Lu's heart, her deviant behavior has always been a thorn in her heart, although before she got married, she had reconciled with her family, but there was obviously a gap between her and her family.

Although she never felt that she was wrong to do this back then, she was never at ease, Chen Qingdong's words made her feel a kind of happiness understood for the first time!

After holding back the tears that were about to overflow her eyes, Chen Lu said sincerely: "Secretary Chen, thank you for saying that. ”

Chen Qingdong said: "You're welcome, I just truthfully said what I really thought." ”

"And do you want to hear my story from behind?"

"Of course. ”

After Chen Lu pondered for a while, she continued: "After running away from home, I originally hoped to continue my high school studies and take the university entrance examination in the future, but I soon found that this was already a luxury dream for me. The first thing I had to do was to support myself, and if I was in high school, I would obviously not be able to balance life and study. ”

"Later, I came to Longwan and worked in a restaurant. This restaurant is right across the street from Longwan College, which is why I chose to work there, and I wanted to be closer to my dream university. In the process of my part-time job, a fortunate thing happened, I met a good boss, he turned out to be a teacher at Longwan College, because of violating the family planning policy, he was expelled from the school, so he and his wife opened this restaurant opposite Longwan College. ”

"After knowing my situation, my boss and his wife were very sympathetic to me, they both hoped that I could continue to study in high school and go to university in the future, and even said that they were willing to help me, and gave me a high school in Longwan to let me study, so that the school could reduce my tuition and miscellaneous fees as much as possible, and in life, they could also give me some help, so that I could go to their restaurant to work in their restaurant to earn tuition during holidays. ”

"I am very grateful to them for receiving their kindness. They didn't lie to me, and sure enough, I was connected to a high school, and the principal of that school was a friend of my boss, and after he learned about my situation, he really waived my tuition and fees, and helped me apply for a scholarship. Almost like a dream, I achieved the life of my dreams with the help of well-wishers. ”

Hearing this, Chen Qingdong was also very happy, and had a feeling that in the fairy tale he watched when he was a child, Cinderella, who had gone through hardships, finally got the help of well-wishers and lived a happy life ever since.

However, then Chen Qingdong thought that it was wrong, because he had read Chen Lu's resume and knew that Chen Lu's education was only a technical secondary school, not a university, in other words, Chen Lu definitely did not finish high school!

Because if Chen Lu finishes high school, even if she is not admitted to an undergraduate university in the end, but goes to a junior college, then it should be a college degree, and only those who have completed junior high school and have not studied high school will go to secondary school.

Then, something must have happened after Chen Lu that affected her fate.

Without waiting for Chen Qingdong to ask this question, Chen Lu said to himself: "Although I have never believed in fate, fate has always played a joke on me. In the first semester of high school, I cherished this hard-won opportunity, studied hard every day, often studied until 12 o'clock in the evening, got up again at 4 or 5 o'clock in the morning to learn English words, and on weekends, I tried to find time to work in my boss's restaurant, although they did not ask me to do this, but told me that I only need to work here during the winter and summer vacations every year, but I felt that if I didn't do this, I would not be able to feel at ease. ”

"This semester, I have always pulled the strings in my heart very tightly, but I also feel that I have lived a very fulfilling life, and when it comes to the final exam, I actually did well, ranking sixth in the class and about 100 in the grade. In fact, now that I think about it, my grades in the exam at that time were really good, because I was studying in Longwan with a very good grade, and as long as I was in the top 300 in my grade, I should be able to be admitted to the undergraduate program. But I was too anxious at that time, and I cherished this opportunity too much! The sixth place in the class and the 100th place in the grade could not satisfy me at all, and I also felt that this result failed to live up to the help of well-wishers. ”

"Since the second semester, I have been studying harder, not wanting to delay a minute, getting up early and studying late every day. But I pulled my heartstrings too tightly, and I was usually reluctant to eat nutritious things, and finally fell ill due to malnutrition. After I recovered from my illness, I suffered from depression because of too much pressure in my heart, I couldn't sleep every night, and I was in a trance during the day, although I was still studying hard, but my study efficiency was too low, and my academic performance plummeted! During the midterm exam in the second semester, my grades plummeted to more than 30 in the class, and I was even outside the autograph in the grade! When I got the report card, I was discouraged! I feel that I am useless, that I have buried my own fate with my own hands, and that I have failed the help of those well-wishers!

"I really didn't have the courage to continue living, and on May Day, I went to a man-made lake near our school, sat there for half an afternoon, and finally jumped. However, when I jumped into the lake and was almost suffocated, I suddenly gushed out again! I was a little watery, so I struggled to float up, yelling on the surface of the lake, and two passing high school students jumped into the lake to save me. Since then, I haven't gone to school again. ”

"After taking a break for half a month, I figured it out, I knew that it would be impossible for me to be admitted to university again in my life, something in my heart had been broken, and I had lost the ability to study hard. Originally, I had already considered accepting my fate, going to the south to find a place where no one knew me, and never came back. However, at this time, the kind restaurant owner reached out to me again, and he told me that even if I didn't go to high school, I could take the secondary school exam with my junior high school diploma. He also told me that even if I still go to work in the future, if I have a secondary school graduation certificate, it will definitely be of great help to me, and after studying secondary school, I also hope to enter the government or work in a state-owned enterprise. ”

"Eventually, I accepted his advice, and after a period of study, I was admitted to Longwan Medical College that year, majoring in nursing, and continued my study career ever since. After studying at the secondary school, my depression was slowly cured due to the light academic performance and the relaxed environment. In addition to studying, I continued to work at my boss's restaurant, and also tutored some junior high school students to earn tuition and living expenses. Looking back now, I was really happy during that time. ”

Hearing this, Chen Qingdong also showed a relieved smile, anyway, for Chen Lu, who was already in a desperate situation at that time, it was also a good destination to be able to study this medical college!

"What happened later?" Chen Qingdong couldn't help but ask, "Since you studied medicine, why did you come to work in a government agency later?"

Chen Lu glanced at Chen Qingdong, then moved his eyes to the window, looked at the vast dark night outside, and then said: "The days of studying in the medical college, time flies quickly, and in a blink of an eye, it will be the third grade, our secondary school is a three-year system, and the first two years are in school, and the third year will come out to find a unit for internship." In the first two years, there was no difference between our classmates, but in the third year, the difference became apparent. At that time, there were already too many people studying medicine, and public hospitals simply could not absorb so many students. For us, if you want to get into a public hospital, it is very difficult, you have to have a relationship, and these public hospitals agree to accept you. If it doesn't matter, then you can only go to a private hospital. At that time, going to a private hospital almost meant no security, a very low salary, a lot of work intensity, and a chance to advance. ”

"Many of the students in my class who have connections and backgrounds have already been arranged by their families for future jobs in the second grade, and for people like me who have no background, I can only sigh again at the ruthlessness of fate. Just when I was worried about my future, I met another person who changed my fate, and this person was Zhang Yulong!"

Chen Qingdong finally heard Zhang Yulong's name, so he couldn't help but ask, "How did you know each other? Are you classmates?"
