001. The half-hung prophet

"I refuse. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info”

"Miss Tang, I'm serious."

"I'm serious, too, why do I have to work at your coffee shop?"

"I'm sure Miss Tang understands why." The blonde man's eyes were determined and confident.

Tang Mai looked at the man in front of him, dressed in a well-tailored suit, and maintained a modest smile on his handsome face. She suddenly sighed in her heart, and began to regret her impulsiveness.

Rewind time, half an hour ago, Monteria City, Rowling Street.

Tang Mai left the countryside where he had lived for 16 years and came to this bustling metropolis.

Walking on an unfamiliar street, she was a little overwhelmed by all kinds of people, and looked around curiously. Suddenly, she frowned and covered her head, as if sensing something, and immediately dragged her suitcase to move around a moment later.

After only two steps, I saw a blonde man about to enter the phone booth.

After hesitating for a moment, Wheat stepped forward and grabbed him: "I'll go in later." ”

Almost a few seconds later, a large truck on the road suddenly lost control and rushed straight down the sidewalk, hitting the phone booth impartially. The red phone booth was instantly crushed and deformed.

Then it turned out to be the situation where the blonde man insisted that she work at his coffee shop.

Wheat could only feign ignorance: "I don't know what you're talking about. ”

In fact, it can't be said that I don't know at all about some incredible things that happened to her.

In the past, she could foresee something that was about to happen, which is often referred to as foresight of the future. It seems a bit exaggerated to say this, but in fact, it is just seeing some afterimages. After each brief headache, images appear in front of her eyes. Sometimes there are a lot of pictures and they are very clear, and sometimes they are only sporadic and fleeting, so short that you don't know what they are.

In short, this ability is very incomplete. Although it can be predicted, it is completely uncontrollable, and can only passively accept the prophetic message. The most important thing is that those things that are foreseen are definitely related to herself. In other words, she doesn't see a future that has nothing to do with her.

"Miss Tang, don't you want to know? Why can I ...... Foreseeing the future? The blonde man elegantly held the coffee cup and looked at her with meaningful eyes.

Tang Mai was surprised in his heart, but he still pretended not to understand his words: "I'm sorry, I don't know what you're talking about." If there's nothing else to do, then I'm sorry, but I've got something to do. Not wanting to continue to entangle with this person, Tang Mai politely got up and said goodbye. Just kidding, about her special abilities, that's something that no one else should ever know.

Rejected by her, the blonde man showed a gentlemanly smile and handed over his business card: "If Miss Tang changes her mind, you are welcome at any time." ”

Tang Mai saw a kind of certainty in that smile, and seemed to believe that she would definitely go to him. A little unhappy, she took the business card and didn't look at it, and threw it into her bag casually. Waiting for me to change my mind? Then wait slowly!

Walking on the way to school with a suitcase, it is not early, so it is better to go through the enrollment procedures as soon as possible. With that in mind, she quickened her pace.

The Lyceum of St. Francis, a prestigious aristocratic school, where Wheat came from the countryside to the city of Montelia in order to attend it. Of course, she is not a wealthy aristocrat, nor is she a celebrity.

St. Francis Lyceum, New Student Enrollment Office.

"Miss Tang, I'm very sorry, but your full scholarship has been automatically reduced to half scholarship a few days ago. In addition, the residential scholarship and the additional monthly allowance for living expenses have also been abolished. We're so sorry we haven't had time to let you know yet. In the registration room, the reception lady responded politely with a professional smile on her lips.

Tang Mai couldn't believe it: "How is it possible? I obviously got this full scholarship with absolutely excellent grades! How can it be downgraded? Are you cheating students? "She's angry now, and she'd better give her a satisfactory explanation, because she hates jokes about money the most in her life.

"That's right, Miss Tang, the reason why you received a full scholarship, a residential scholarship, and a monthly living allowance sponsored by the school is because you got the first place in the school's independent entrance examination. However, not long ago, someone stood out with better results than you and applied for a full prize. As a result, your scholarship will be automatically lowered to the second tier ......"

"Wait!" Tang Mai hurriedly interrupted, "You mean that there are people with better grades than me?" "Please, she's almost perfect in all subjects, and is there anyone better than her?

You know,St. Francis School Park has always been the exclusive school park for wealthy nobles,It is recognized as a place for the next generation of celebrities。 Although in recent years, it has been willing to recruit students from the civilian population, but not to mention the independent questions in the entrance exam, the questions are still very strange, so it is difficult to get into the real test. This is why even if the school park is open to the general public,,There will still be no one who can really get in,It's still an absolute famous school park。

Here, it's not Mai herself who wants to boast that her results can be said to be the best since the opening of the independent entrance exam. Can anyone be better than her like this? Can she believe it?!

As if to understand the meaning of her words, the reception lady replied politely: "Yes, the other party passed the exam with a perfect score in all subjects." She clicked skillfully, checked the relevant information, and confirmed: "Therefore, after discussion, the school decided to give him the honor of first-class scholarship." ”

No way? Tang Mai wailed in his heart, what is the situation now? Tuition fees can't be waived, but there are no boarding scholarships and monthly living allowances? How does this keep her alive?

"Please, can you be accommodating?" Tang Mai asked with a flattering smile.

"Miss Tang, I'm really sorry, this is the school's decision, and I can't change it without permission." The reception lady is still a professional smile.

"My family is very poor, and you can't bear to watch a talented and ambitious young man being turned away because he can't afford to pay his tuition? Maybe I will be in a trance and have some accidents on the road, even if there is no accident in the city, it may cause urban traffic jams, this traffic jam will cause inconvenience in the daily life of the citizens, once the daily life is inconvenient, the city's security satisfaction index will decline, and once the satisfaction index declines, there will be more problems, in short, you can do it...... "Tang wheat is indomitable, dead skin and face.

Just kidding, she only has a gray-haired grandmother farming in the countryside, and everyone knows that the tuition fee of this school is not ordinarily high, so the ghost can pay that huge fee!

"So should Miss Tang consider giving up her enrollment and choosing another institution?" The reception lady is also honed year after year, so naturally she will not let go.

"No! I must go to this school! Tang Mai was unusual, and suddenly said loudly, his expression was unprecedentedly firm.

That's right, the reason why she wants to enter this school against all odds is not because she wants to enter the upper class society as ordinary people think, she has a reason why she must enter this school! Yes, she had to find her biological parents!

It was a year ago, when her grandmother, who was with her in the countryside, suddenly told her that she was not her real granddaughter. The news was like a bombshell, disrupting her original life. According to her grandmother, she was placed at the door of her house, and no one knew who her parents were.

After telling her the truth, the grandmother handed her a handkerchief. It was a high-quality silk handkerchief with a circle of gold thread pressed on the four sides of the handkerchief, and the word "d.k" embroidered on the lower right corner. It was the only thing left in the swaddling clothes, and it was supposed to have been put by the person who discarded her.

Why did her parents abandon her? Is it ruthless or is there another reason? Is his birth unblessed? Tang Mai wanted to know why, she had to figure it all out, or she would be trapped in this whirlpool, never able to move forward.

When she came into contact with the handkerchief, she suddenly had a headache, and then she saw the school gate of St. Francis Academy. There was nothing else, but she was sure that if she went there, she would find the answers she wanted.

It's a pity that the tuition fees of St. Francis School are too high, and ordinary people absolutely can't afford it, let alone Tang Mai, who has an aggrieved environment where there are only one old and one young in the family, so she blocked everything on a full scholarship. In order to complete this impossible task, she can be said to have thrown her head and spilled blood, in line with the sinister intention of completely slapping all the previous waves on the beach, K Shuk to the outrageous madness, this is finally her wish.

But...... But what is happening now? What is the origin of that guy who came out halfway? Don't let people live?!

"Damn! I curse you to death! You'd better burn incense and pray to the Buddha not to meet me, otherwise I will haunt you and curse you to death for the rest of my life! Tang Mai angrily kicked the can under her feet, needless to say, she was naturally no match for the battle-hardened receptionist lady, and was completely defeated by the invincible stylized reception method and patterned professional smile.

Walking aimlessly down the street, the street lights are already on, and the sky is getting darker and darker.

What to do? There is not much money left on his body, excluding the travel expenses. Judging from the current situation, she not only has to pay for a place to live by herself, but also has to raise the remaining half of the tuition fees, and living expenses are another expense...... Oh, my God! Why is it so promising? If it weren't for the search for her biological parents, she wouldn't have come here to suffer, and she wouldn't be too free to stay in the countryside.

The lights were lit up in the storefronts on both sides of the street, and when I passed a restaurant, the aroma of the food came out, and Tang Mai only felt hungry. Helplessly, she was ashamed to see people, so she could only walk a few steps briskly to stay away from the temptation of these red fruits.

As I walked, I came to a secluded neighborhood. It is not as busy as daylight in other places, the street lights here are particularly dim, and the surrounding houses are relatively old, so it seems that it should be an old neighborhood.

Tang Wheat stopped and sat down on a public bench to rest. After a day of running, I don't even have hot food in my mouth, and I really want to cry without tears. If it was in the countryside, grandma must have made dinner and waited for her to eat. Thinking about it, Wheat sighed again.

Not long after, the sound of high heels was heard in the distance. Gradually, a little boy led a young woman past her. If you don't look closely, you'll just think it's a parent leading a child home or something. But Mai could see clearly that when she and the child looked at each other, he actually smiled at her weirdly, and that smile should never have appeared on an innocent child, which made people feel terrified. Look at the young woman again, her eyes are empty and her face is expressionless, she just follows the boy mechanically.

Watching the child lead the young woman around the corner, Tang Mai was still sitting in the chair. There seems to be an old warehouse in front of it, and anyone can guess that there is a cat. But wheat is also powerless, she can neither fight nor carry, at most she has some half-baked prediction ability, and the performance is particularly convulsive.

In a word, love can't help, ask for more blessings.
