"What? Did your brother Ah Cheng miss him just two days after he left? ”

"No, I'm just asking." Xiao Qi saw that her mother didn't answer but asked herself such a sensitive topic, she scratched her head to hide her little expression.

"He, I don't know very well, he said that he came on a business trip, and came to see me and your dad by the way, so he didn't say anything." Su Xiaoya said plainly and told her daughter everything she knew.

"Did he ask Koike then?" Xiao Qi stared at his mother's eyes and asked nervously.

"I asked, I told him it was your brother's son, and he seemed to believe it." Su Xiaoya's worries gradually disappeared, she thought that Xiao Qi wanted to return to China, but it turned out to be because of this incident.

"Mom, I miss my brother a little, why don't we take Xiaochi back with us during the summer vacation this year." Xiao Qi looked at her mother's eyes sincerely, hoping that her mother would promise her.

She really wanted to go back, she felt that she couldn't wait for the summer vacation, and if it weren't for her parents' permission, she couldn't wait to fly back to China now.

Su Xiaoya was stunned, but her daughter still wanted to return to China.

"Mom knows you want to go back, but you haven't graduated yet, why don't you wait, when you finish your PhD, and your dad just retired at that time, wouldn't it be better for us to go back to China together when we are successful?"

Su Xiaoya comforted her daughter that she was really afraid of what happened back then, so she and Xiao Qi's father have taken special care of Xiao Qi over the years, and never let her leave the city for half a step.

"Mom———" Xiao Qi begged again, pulling Su Xiaoya's arm and coquettishly.

"Okay, it's useless to beg me, even if I promise you, your father won't agree." Su Xiaoya was helpless and comforted Xiao Qi.

"Jingle bell ———" At this moment, the doorbell of the house rang.

Su Xiaoya went downstairs.

"Hello, is it Cheng Qishi's home?" The female professor asked politely while standing outside the door.

"Yes, yes, who are you?" Su Xiaoya asked politely.

"I am ———"

"Professor Judy." Xiao Qi heard a familiar voice in the room, and shouted when he opened the door and saw it.

"Hi, Little Seven." Professor Judy looked up and saw Xiao Qi standing at the top of the stairs.

When Su Xiaoya heard this, she quickly let the woman outside the door in.

"Professor Judy, why are you here?" Xiao Qi was surprised, she had been in country Y for so long, and Professor Judy was a guest at her house for the first time.

"I have some problems, but I'm not here for you today, I'm here for your mom and dad."

"Looking for my parents?" Xiao Qi frowned, his face full of doubt.

"Looking for us?" Su Xiaoya was also full of question marks, and she didn't know why.

"Yes, I'm here to talk to you about Xiao Qi." Judy looked at Su Xiaoya and said.

"What's wrong with Xiao Qi? Doesn't she listen to her at school all the time? Su Xiaoya looked at her daughter standing in front of her in a dignified manner, and was even more confused.

Xiao Qi also looked at Professor Judy in confusion.

"No, no, no, Xiao Qi is really good and excellent, and because of this, I came to fight for more opportunities for her." Professor Judy explained calmly.

"What do you mean? I don't understand? Su Xiaoya looked at Xiao Qi, then at the professor and asked.

"I want Xiao Qi to represent the school in a competition." Professor Judy gets straight to the point.

"Of course it's good to participate in the competition, but you can talk to Xiao Qi about this, and you don't need to ask for our opinions." Su Xiaoya smiled slightly.

"That's right, Professor, you can just tell me, you don't need to ask my parents for advice." Xiao Qi also agreed.

"An international competition, if you want to go abroad, can you call the shots?" Professor Judy looked at Xiao Qi and asked calmly.

When Xiao Qi heard this, he was directly dumbfounded, staring at the beads in his eyes and unable to say a word for a long time.

She, this, doesn't seem to be able to be the master.

"This," Su Xiaoya laughed dryly, "I can't be the master either, professor, why don't you wait a while, I'll go find Xiao Qi's father and come over, you can talk to him!" Su Xiaoya had no choice but to get up and go upstairs to find her husband.

———

"I disagree!" Cheng Bin categorically rejected Professor Judy.

"Father Cheng, why are you preventing Xiao Qi from going to other countries, she is already an adult, and she can make her own decisions." Professor Judy was very angry, she did not expect that there was such a father, who would restrict the personal freedom of his children.

"No matter how old she is, she is also my daughter, she has to listen to me, in short, I don't agree, no matter what you say, it's useless with me." Cheng Bin has a tough attitude, and there is no room for maneuver at all.

"You will prevent Xiao Qi's future development, and it will also affect her application for a doctorate at Qiaojian University, no school wants a student who can't go abroad to earn honors for his school." Professor Judy was furious, he didn't expect this man to be so stubborn.

When Cheng Bin heard this, he was suddenly stunned.

Follow-up: "Which country to go to?" ”

"Go to China, your country, does Mr. Cheng really want to stop you?" Professor Judy calmly stared at Xiao Qi's father.

"China, then I'll have to think about it." In fact, what he wanted to say was: then I have to think about it better.

But as a diplomat, he can't slander his motherland in words, so he changed what he really wanted to say, in fact, in Cheng Bin's psychology, the last thing he wanted his daughter to go was to return to China.

"What's there to worry about when you go back to your own country?" Professor Judy continued to ask disapprovingly, she just wanted to force Xiao Qi's family to agree to this matter step by step.

"Of course, there's nothing to worry about, I'm just reluctant to part with my daughter, our Xiaoqi didn't grow up with me since I was a child, so what I'm doing now is just making up for my previous debt to her." Cheng Bin argued forcefully.

"It seems that Mr. Cheng is indeed a good father, but Xiao Qi is an adult after all, you have to learn to let go and let the child break through on his own, only when he falls on his head and bleeds, can he face the world more bravely, isn't it?" Professor Judy continued to convince Cheng's father that she had seen a glimmer of hope.

"Let her do it herself?" Cheng Bin suddenly smiled bitterly.

Four years ago, he also thought that the child was too old to worry about everything, so he let the child make his own choices and do what he wanted to do.

But in the end, her Xiao Qi was hurt so much, he couldn't regret it, but it was too late.

That's why he has been very strict with her in the past few years and doesn't let her leave her control.

"Mr. Cheng, I hope you can seriously consider this matter, and I'm not threatening you, if you don't agree, I guarantee that Xiao Qi will definitely not be able to enter Jianxi University, you should know that it has always been Xiao Qi's dream." Professor Judy finished his handbag and left.

Xiao Qi has been hiding at the corner of the stairs listening to the conversation between the professor and her father, she knows what her father is worried about, because her ignorance has caused things to develop the way they are now, so she doesn't blame her father at all.

"Professor Judy." Xiao Qi chased out.

"Xiao Qi, I did my best, and then it's up to your father." Professor Judy helplessly spread his hands to Xiao Qi and shrugged his shoulders.

"Professor Judy, can't I really get into Jianxi University?" Xiao Qi lowered his eyes and asked with a low emotion.

"It's going to take us together, you have to believe in yourself and you can't be beaten by anything." Professor Judy patted Xiao Qi on the shoulder and turned to leave.

Looking at Professor Judy's distant back, Xiao Qi began to make trouble.

In the past, she thought that it didn't matter which university she went to, but now Brother Ah Cheng's career is so successful, so she has to work hard to catch up with him, and when they meet, she hopes that they can still stand on the same height to look at the problem.

Cheng Bin looked at his daughter standing in the courtyard with a melancholy expression, he felt uncomfortable, was it really wrong for him to do this?

The night was quiet and deep.

There was a figure who sat in the study for a whole night.

The next day, early in the morning.

"Xiao Qi, do you want to go back to China?" Cheng Bin came to Xiao Qi's room, sat on the edge of the bed and asked Xiao Qi, who was sorting out the books.

"Dad, I ———" want to go back.

Xiao Qi hesitated, she still couldn't say it, after all, she disappointed her parents first.

"Go back and see your brother for me, I heard your mother say that you miss him very much, and I miss him too." Cheng Bin handed the passport into Xiao Qi's hands, but his eyes seemed to be red.

Xiao Qi was stunned, her eyes were wet, she lowered her head, tears flowed down her eyes, and she threw herself into her father's arms, and kept apologizing in her mouth: "I'm sorry Dad, I'm sorry, it's all my fault, so you always worry about me." ”

"Okay, it's all over, Dad didn't blame you, never blamed you, you've always been Daddy's good daughter, always be." Cheng Bin swayed Xiao Qi's back to help her breathe.

Half a month later, Xiao Qi boarded a flight back to China with more than a dozen classmates.

For others, it was just a strange country, but for Xiao Qi, it was a place she couldn't be more familiar with.

———

"Thank you!" Xiao Qi sat on the plane and sincerely thanked Ben on the side.

"What?" Ben pretended not to know anything, and looked at Cheng Qishi with a questioning expression.

"I say thank you! Professor Judy told me both. Xiao Qi raised his voice and said into Ben's ear.

The people in the seats next to him all cast strange eyes and looked at Xiao Qi, Xiao Qi suddenly realized that this was on the plane, and hurriedly covered his face with his hands in embarrassment, and did not forget to purse his mouth and roll his eyes and glared at Ben.
