Chapter 27: Salvaging the Love That's Almost Lost 4

  "Alright, I'll listen to you, let's work hard together. You know what? I suddenly thought of something, it's been a long time since we last had stir-fried ice... Let's go have some stir-fried ice! How about that?" Tongtong said with a pouty face after thinking for a moment.

  "Alright, I haven't been there for a long time either, and it's also relieving. Hehe, let's go."

  "Shan Ge, are you sure you won't get into college? If you really can't get in, what's your plan? Will you retake the exam or just go to vocational school and slack off?" Tong Tong asked Shan Ge while eating her stir-fried ice.

  "Uh, well... what I say doesn't count, it's mainly up to my parents' decision. As you know, they're the ones with the money, if they want me to study, I'll study, and if not, no matter how hard we try to persuade them, it won't make a difference, do you get it?"

  "You're right, I didn't expect you to see through things so clearly, Brother Dao. You really shouldn't be underestimated."

  "When it comes to this topic, my sister can't help but say: 'You know, you don't think about how many girls like us who grew up in this place can really read that many books. And after growing up here for so long, you still don't know how important money is to people here? Isn't the point of studying just to make money too? In that case, it's better to just come out and learn some experience from society early on! Don't be surprised why I'm saying these things, haha, I'm just repeating what my parents said to me. It's really helpless."

  Tong Tong's face was filled with happiness as she said: "Ah! I didn't expect that, so Uncle and Auntie aren't planning to let you continue studying either? I'm going to faint. It seems my parents don't have as much foresight as your parents do. But hearing this, I still have a lot of hope."

  "Let's not talk about this anymore, if we can't read it then so be it. Who made us not try our best? If we were excellent students, our parents wouldn't dare say these things either. So let's not blame them, we should blame ourselves for not working hard enough." Xiang Ge said with a smile while crushing ice cubes and sipping through a straw.

  "Alas!" Tongtong also sighed and said.
