Shao Qingyan rode back home, and the morning light just revealed the faintness.

The room was quiet, as if people were still sleeping.

But after he opened the door and entered, Ms. Shao Qinfang soon came out of the back room.

"Coming back?" She said softly.

"Why didn't you even go home last night, and went directly to work at the convenience store from the home of the person who made up the class?"

"Hmm."

Shao Qingyan put down his schoolbag and didn't say anything.

"Did you eat dinner?"

"Eat."

Shao Qinfang put down his snack a little, and then asked him, "Did you eat at the family that made up the class?" How was the person who made up last night? ”

"It's okay, the family is fine."

No matter which family it is, Shao Qingyan always answers like this.

Shao Qinfang sighed weakly, as if she didn't notice her son's evasion, she only blamed herself: "It's all my mother's fault, you have been sent to Tsinghua University, and you have to work hard to earn living expenses outside......"

"It's fine." Shao Qingyan comforted her as usual, "It's none of your business, I don't need to go to school much anyway after being escorted, I'm idle at home, it's better to go outside to pick up some make-up work, it's convenient and easy." ”

"Not to mention ......"

He paused.

"That family is really good, I just gave him a temporary lecture last night, so I didn't have time to go home for dinner."

When Shao Qinfang heard this, she finally smiled a little.

"But it's not okay if you're always so busy, it's easy to make up classes, so don't do the convenience store work for the time being......"

Since Shao Qingyan confirmed the guaranteed quota, there are naturally many parents who come to him to make up classes, including the Tao family, he took over the work of three families in one go.

In addition, he also found a part-time job at a convenience store near his home, and he was busy every day, either giving students make-up classes, working in convenience stores, or going to make-up classes and on his way to convenience stores.

Although he is young, he works so hard all day long, Shao Qinfang is really distressed to watch.

"It's just standing at the cashier in the convenience store, and I'm not very tired, I'm still young, and I can earn as much as I can."

Shao Qingyan obviously didn't quit his job easily because of his mother's words, his face was not very good after staying up all night shift, and after putting the study into the room, he went to the toilet to wash his face first.

Shao Qinfang stood in place and sighed silently.

"I've already made breakfast, let's have some breakfast before going to bed." She told Shao Qingyan again.

"Okay."

Shao Qingyan quickly washed her face and brushed her teeth, and went into the small kitchen to help her serve breakfast.

After Li Cang got up, he saw the game of checkers that he didn't finish last night.

The transparent glass beads scattered on the chessboard seem to be messy, but they are actually reproduced little by little by the steps she and Shao Qingyan have taken in her memory.

In the past, Li Cang never regarded escorting Tsinghua as such a powerful thing.

After all, this was the end of their efforts, but it was never her goal.

But after last night, after she and Shao Qingyan played a game of checkers, she found that some people can be escorted, which is indeed worthy of admiration.

Shao Qingyan was very smart, smarter than most of the people she had ever met.

Every move he made, although it was expected, he was able to rely on a few unexpected pieces to reach the opposite end of the line a lot faster.

Li Cang rarely admires people.

But she had to admire Shao Qingyan.

In addition to admiration, there is also a little unwillingness.

Because she could see that he had a child on the field, Tao Mingcheng, he deliberately chose the path that was not easy to take when he took some chess pieces.

If it weren't for Tao Mingcheng, he might have ended this chess game with her faster and more cruelly.

She stood by the chessboard, looking at the results of the last night's racking of her brains, and the blinding halo shone through the floor-to-ceiling windows on the side, piercing through the colorful glass.

Suddenly, inexplicably, a wave of irritability surged in my heart.

Li Cang really couldn't hold back, and raised his foot and kicked the short-legged coffee table in front of him.

The glass beads on the chessboard jumped a few times, and a few of them were shaking, and they couldn't help but move their places.

She looked at the beads coldly, and in the next second, she turned around and walked away.

—

Li Cang is not in a very good mood today.

Quite a few people can see it.

But there are also many people who don't see it.

After all, this eldest lady has always been such a cold face, looking down on everyone equally, and ignoring everyone equally.

Today is the gathering of the dance club in the school, because many G12 people in the club have already received offers to go to the UK, so at the party, you can hear a lot of congratulations one after another.

"Congratulations, you and Lin Jiajia are going to the UK together?"

Emily took her glass and walked up to her.

Li Cang glanced at her and did not speak.

Emily felt despised for herself.

But this incident happened to Li Cang, and she seems to be acceptable.

She pouted boredly and chose to stay by Li Can's side.

"I heard that Lin Jiajia recently got very close to the handsome guy who escorted Tsinghua University in the experiment, is it true?"

Li Cang couldn't help but snort coldly.

She knew how this person had to come over to talk to her for no reason, and she still wanted to inquire about Lin Jiajia's news.

Last time, they held a birthday surprise party for Lin Jiajia and took a lot of photos, and after going back that night, Lin Jiajia sorted out a lot of long pictures and posted a nine-square circle of friends. Among them, there was the one they took in the private room of the private dish at noon that day, and Shao Qingyan was also there.

Li Cang estimated that Emily caught the shadow of the wind from those photos, and then came to her to find a sense of existence.

"What's the matter with you?"

She didn't even look at this person, she really didn't bother to talk to her.

"They're all classmates, can't I ask?"

Emily choked, obviously really angry with Li Cang.

"Li Cang, I know that I don't have a good relationship with Lin Jiajia, so you always help her get angry with me, but I'm here today, and I still have to tell you the truth. If Lin Jiajia wanted to deliberately go against me and deliberately compare with me, so he went to find a handsome guy who was a top student, I can say that this is simply unnecessary! ”

“……”

Li Cang frowned, not knowing how she had the face to say such a thing.

But Emily continued to tell her in the next second: "I'm afraid you don't know the family background of that handsome scholar, right?" I'll tell you, their family is poor, very poor, very poor, this is a fact that everyone knows about the whole experiment. He has been working part-time outside on his own since he was in high school, and he has worked hard to get a scholarship in school. He doesn't have a father at home, only a sick mother, and if he doesn't do those jobs, fight, or grab those things, then he probably won't even be able to pay the tuition fees for each semester......"

"It's the same now, even if he has been sent to Tsinghua University, even if Tsinghua gives him free tuition, he still has to go to other people's homes every day to make up for classes and work, so that he can save up for his travel and living expenses to Beicheng......"

"Li Cang, you and Lin Jiajia are friends, Lin Jiajia's character, you can't be clearer, she casually has no heart to buy a bag on the street, that scholar is estimated to have to save money for a few months without eating or drinking, do you think they are really suitable?"

Square peg.

Lin Jiajia and Shao Qingyan are not suitable.

Li Cang knew about this from the beginning.

It's just that she doesn't know what qualifications Emily has to stand here and accuse her of it.

Yes, because of the incident at the Tao family last night, Li Cang was very unaccustomed to Shao Qingyan, but compared to Emily standing in front of her like this, talking at length, she suddenly felt that the surname Shao seemed to be pleasing to the eye.

She clasped her hands on her chest and looked at each other calmly.

"So what?"

"What are you telling me about?"

"Even if they're not suitable, what's your business?"

"If you have nothing to do when you are full, you might as well think about how to find a boyfriend who can escort Tsinghua and let Tsinghua give him free tuition."

"I ......"

Emily choked on her face once more.

"No, Li Cang, I came to persuade you with good intentions, don't be too ignorant!"

"Okay? Do you know what it means to be good? ”

Li Cang got up from his seat, he was not in the mood to come to this party today, but now that Emily made such a fuss, he finally made up his mind to leave.

"The good thing between us is that you had better appear in front of me less in the future, and chew less on my friend's tongue, otherwise, I can also find someone to investigate your boyfriend, and announce all his glorious family background to the public, so that everyone can discuss it."

She put on her coat, picked up her bag by the way, and before leaving the door, she gave Emily one last deep look, and her eyes were full of disdain.

Although the others didn't know why, they all gathered around when they saw the movement here.

Li Cang didn't give face to anyone, turned around directly, and strode out of this private room.

The sound behind him was complicated, but Li Cang's footsteps were getting faster and faster.

Someone chased out the door of the private room and tried to stop her back, but because they saw her cold face, they didn't dare to say anything when they got closer.

Li Cang took the elevator all the way from the fifth floor to the first floor.

The driver at home did not receive her notice, so naturally he would not be waiting for her downstairs at this time.

Or this Sycamore Road.

As soon as Li Cang went out, he was blown by the cold wind and saw the familiar tall dead wood.

She stood in the cold wind, looked around, and suddenly calmed down, a little unsure of where to go.

She stood there with a hint of anger on her face that had just been given to Emily.

Li Cang feels that he has rarely shown such naked emotions in front of others recently.

But Emily did.

She can't say what the specific reason is, because she slandered Lin Jiajia? Because she has been secretly sarcastic, is Shao Qingyan a poor boy with nothing?

She doesn't feel like it.

It seems to be because of the game of chess that I lost last night.

Li Cang does not deny that he was born to be a strong person.

It was not the first time she had known about Shao Qingyan's family background, but Emily's words were like once again wrapping these things into a pinprick and sticking them in her heart over and over again.

Every time she said more, her heart was like a villain dancing non-stop, saying: "Look, Li Cang, with his family background, he can crush you in the next checkers, and if you look at you again, you have so many since you were a child, don't you think it's ridiculous?" Don't you feel ashamed? ”

She clasped her hands on her chest again, with a cold face, and walked slowly under the branches of the sycamore tree, which had long been without leaves, and when the cold wind hit again, she sucked her nose that was a little frozen.

It's rare for the snow in Cloud City to stop today, but because of the snow, it's a little colder than a few days ago.

It was still bright in the distance, and she shrunk her neck, not wanting to go home so early for the time being.

The streets were full of unfamiliar figures, and she was deserted and blended in, but she really didn't know where she was going.

Suddenly, a thin figure on a bicycle caught off guard and intruded into her sight.

Li Cang's eyes trembled, and he blurted out the name almost subconsciously:

"Shao Qingfang!"
