"I probably won't go to college." Zhao Qi's words caused the three people around to be surprised.
"What!!"
"Holy, the three of you are screaming so loudly." This class is a self-study class, there is no teacher in the class, and the sound of a few people babbling makes the students sitting in the front row turn their heads to look over.
"You said you weren't going to college?" Huang Peng lowered his voice and asked.
"I just said that I might not go to college, and I didn't say that I would definitely not go to college." Zhao Qi hadn't told anyone about this idea yet, and the three of them were the first people to know.
"Why?" However, the three of them still couldn't understand Zhao Qi's thoughts, after all, with such good grades, it was too unexpected not to go to a better university.
"Is it because of Reese?" Li Xiang asked in a chattering voice.
"No, I just don't want to go to college anymore, and I don't have much to do with other people." Zhao Qi said flatly.
"Why?" The three of them asked in unison.
"I can't actually learn much in college, and besides, I don't need that diploma because I don't have to worry about food and clothing." The real reason Zhao Qi naturally didn't say much, so he made up one casually.
"So what are you going to do if you don't go to college?" Huang Peng asked.
"Traveling all over the world, it's nice to be free to go wherever you want."
"I really envy you, hey, like a few of us, we are forced to study in the third year of high school, we are forced to go to college, and then we are forced to find a job, get married, and have children." Li Xiang patted his head and said depressedly.
……
Zhao Qi is a person who does not have any big ambitions. In his previous life, his character was to get by, just to have a stable income and a virtuous wife. Although he has received the inheritance of cultivation in this life, on the whole, his character has not changed much. It's nothing more than that if you are comfortable, your family's comfort will be over. But he can't tell how much life he has in this life, three hundred years? Or a thousand years? Is such a long life just going on so plainly? If it was Zhao Qi in the past, then it would be possible to live such a leisurely life, but now he has not only obtained the inheritance of cultivation. He has also seen many wonderful events in this world that are not well known, and he is now starting to lose his patience. The world was so wonderful, how could he not explore it.
The idea of traveling around the world has been rooted in Zhao Qi's heart since half a month ago, but he has never told anyone, except for a little mention with the three dead friends today. It's okay not to say this, but after saying it, he has even more longing for this idea.
"Big head, what are you thinking?" Lei Xi asked as she sat in Zhao Qi's car.
"Oh, nothing. I'm just thinking about the future. After listening to Zhao Qi's words, Lei Xi's mood suddenly became a little low, and she didn't say anything for a long time.
"What's wrong?" Lei Xi's mood has not been very good these days, and Zhao Qi knows a little bit about the specific reason.
"Sissi. Are you thinking about what will happen after the college entrance examination? Zhao Qi asked.
"Yes." Reese answered softly.
"My grades are so poor, I definitely can't go to the same university as you, maybe not in the same city." Lacey said in a depressed mood.
"What's wrong with your grades? You're also at the top of the class, so don't be so presumptuous. Zhao Qi stopped the car and leaned on the side of the road to comfort.
"But it's too bad compared to you."
"What does it matter. Even if we're not at a university, we can talk on the phone. ”
"But I don't want to be separated from you, I want to see you every day." With that, Lacey's eyes turned red. hugged Zhao Qi tightly.
"Sissi. Xiao Bisheng is newly married, aren't you tired of being with me every day? ”
"I'm not greasy, I'm going to be with you for the rest of my life." Lei Xi hugged Zhao Qi, and tears flowed out instantly. And Zhao Qi suddenly couldn't speak, hugging Lei Xi and feeling the warmth carefully.
……
"Come on, this is what your grandmother asked me to stew for you to eat, you can taste it." Song Xia scooped a full bowl of chicken soup in front of Zhao Qi, urging Zhao Qi to drink it quickly.
"Mom, I can't eat anymore." Zhao Qi put down the bowl in his hand and said helplessly.
"You drink soup, don't you eat meat, right? The essence of this chicken is all in this soup, you drink it quickly, you are about to take the college entrance examination, and you have to keep up with this nutrition. Song Xia couldn't help but say, she insisted on asking Zhao Qi to drink the chicken soup, and almost didn't feed Zhao Qi herself.
"Mom, I'm ......"
"What's wrong? Isn't it delicious? ”
"It's okay, it's delicious." Zhao Qi drank all the chicken soup in one go, but in the end he still didn't say his plan.
Song Xia is an ordinary junior high school teacher in the final analysis, for her, a person's life should be to go to school, graduate, find a job, get married and have children, and then slowly grow old. Zhao Qi was very worried that his decision would hurt his mother, after all, for Song Xia, Zhao Qi was just a teenager, although he had already had an experience of going out three years ago, but Song Xia had already said that this was the first time and the last time.
"Hey, it's really troublesome, it looks like we have to start with my dad first." Zhao Qi, who was lying on the bed, thought.
If such a plan to travel around the world is implemented, Zhao Qi may only have a few opportunities to meet his parents every year, but fortunately, his sister Zhao Ranran is about to graduate, if there is only one child like Zhao Qi in the family, Zhao Qi estimates that the two will not agree to anything.
Zhao Ranran's miss college life is coming to an end, he studied English in college, and now he is also interning in a company in Jingbei City, and the family has already discussed, and after she graduates from college, let Zhao Ranran return home, after all, the business in the family also needs someone to help, although the major is not right, it doesn't matter, anyway, the society is basically starting from scratch.
Zhao Mu has been busy with several other branches to be opened in Feihe City for the past few days, so he has not come back, Zhao Qi thought about it and called Zhao Mu.
"Hey, Dad."
"Xiao Qi, what's wrong?"
"When are you coming back?"
"Haha. I've only been gone for a week and I'm starting to miss me? ”
"There's something I want to discuss with you, and I'll see when you'll come back." Regarding Zhao Mu's consistent stinky fart behavior, Zhao Qi's countermeasure is to ignore it.
"What can't you say on the phone?" It seems that Zhao Mu is quite busy over there, and the noisy sound can be heard in the microphone.
"Come back when you're free, it's better to talk about this in person." Zhao Qi thought about it and decided not to say it on the phone.
"Alright then, I'll try to come back as soon as possible."
……
I thought that Zhao Mu would not be able to come back in at least a few days, but I didn't expect that after school in the afternoon, Zhao Qi returned home and saw Zhao Mu sitting on the sofa looking at something.
"Coming back? Anyway, what do you need to discuss with me? Zhao Mu put down the things in his hand and asked. After all, Zhao Qi has not discussed anything with Zhao Mu all these years. Basically, Zhao Mu was looking for Zhao Qi, so this time Zhao Mu's speed was very fast, and he came back in the afternoon, and even the affairs of Feihe City were handed over to others to be responsible.
"Well, let's go, go to my room." Zhao Qi glanced at Song Xia, who was busy next to him, and said to Zhao Mu.
"This kid, God is chattering." Zhao Mu didn't think too much about it, and followed Zhao Qi into his room.
……
"Alright. Now let's talk about it. Zhao Mu sat on the bed and asked casually.
"I ...... I don't want to go to college anymore. "Hardened his scalp, Zhao Qi still said it. To Zhao Qi's surprise, Zhao Mu's expression just changed, but he didn't say anything.
"Tell me why." Half an hour later. Zhao Mu said at this time.
"I want to travel the world."
"Traveling the world? Very good idea," Zhao Mu nodded.
"Actually, I've noticed for a long time that you're a different kid." Zhao Mu looked out the window and said slowly.
"You are different from other children in many ways, and some of your ideas are much more mature than normal people. Sometimes I think about it. Are you my son or not? Speaking of this, Zhao Mu smiled bitterly.
"At first, I thought I had good genes, so I became a genius. Gradually. I knew that it wasn't that my genes were good, but that something happened to you that we didn't know. So when you told me today that you didn't want to go to college, I was a little weird, but not surprised. Zhao Mu's words made Zhao Qi's heart shake.
"Dad, I ......"
"You don't want to say that there are seniors who pass you on your height and strong internal strength, right?" Zhao Mu smiled after speaking.
"In fact, going to college is just an experience in life, a buffer before you enter society, and it is very good for people's growth, especially for children of your age, who are sensible but not sensible."
"But it's not suitable for you, you're psychologically mature, and it doesn't matter if you don't go to college. And so much money in the family can also be said to have earned it, so I am not worried about your future life. ”
"Our father and son haven't had many opportunities to talk over the years, most of the time I'm listening to you, hehe, speaking of which, my father is really unqualified."
"No, Dad, you have a lot of good things to learn from."
"Okay, okay, don't hold me." Zhao Mu waved his hand to interrupt Zhao Qi's words.
"I don't care much about your affairs, and I don't object to the fact that you don't want to go to college, but this is also equivalent to you entering society in advance, so if you have to explain something, I will talk to you today."
"Yes, Dad, you can say it."
"It's simple, four words: a clear conscience."
"A clear conscience?"
"Well, you have to remember these four words all the time, you may have setbacks on the road of life in the future, there may be lows, but as long as you can have a clear conscience, then you will be much smoother, and no difficulties can stump you." The relationship between Zhao Mu and Zhao Qi is not so much that of father and son, but of friends. But at this moment, Zhao Qi looked at Zhao Mu with only admiration in his eyes. Respect for fathers, respect for elders.
"I won't say more, and if I talk too much, it will be verbose, and I will talk to her on your mother's side. Do whatever you want. Zhao Mu smiled faintly, pushed open the door and left. (To be continued......)
