Chapter 58: Simple Dreams

  Ye Lan took a look, and her soft sigh actually made Xi Xi's eyes redden, memories flooding her mind, and she couldn't help but feel some bitterness in her heart, but she didn't forget the purpose of finding Xi Xi to talk.

  Daughter grew up, had her own thoughts, in her most brilliant years, those tender emotions if not controlled, may evolve into a lifetime of regret, so as a person who has been through it all, Ye Lan must have a heart-to-heart talk with her daughter before the "early love" problem arises.

  "Tell mom if there is a boy in class you like?"

  "No" Xi Xi shook her head, and just as Ye Lan was about to start the conversation, she realized what her mother's intention was in talking to her this time. But she didn't expect that her mom would ask so bluntly.

  "Ludong Qi is a good kid, down-to-earth, what do you think?" Ye Lan quietly inquired about XiXi's opinion, her own daughter's little thoughts couldn't escape her notice. From childhood to adulthood, there was only one Ludong Qi in her eyes, always on the tip of her tongue, but when she reached adolescence, she stopped mentioning him in front of others.

  "What kind of mother are you, isn't this just encouraging your own daughter to have an early romance?" Xi Xi was suddenly exposed in her thoughts, and her heart became flustered, but she secretly felt fortunate that her mother only knew about Lu Dong Qi and not Chen Yan.

  "I've known Lu Dongqi and Gu Xiao since we were kids, besides, when I'm with them, I never treat them like boys" Xia Xixi's excuse was reasonable and convincing, even she herself almost believed it, but Ye Lan was clearly not that easily fooled.

  "If you're fine with Lu Dongqi, as long as you have your own boundaries, we won't interfere too much. However, I hope you and Gu Xiao don't get too close, you two aren't on the same path"

  If Xi Xi and Lu Dong Qi had seen eye to eye, Ye Lan wouldn't have been worried. What really made her uneasy was Gu Xiao.

  Gu Xuan also grew up watching her, but this child's experience is too complicated. At such a young age, he experienced his parents' divorce and his mother's death. Although she felt heartache for his bumpy growth, she did not hope that her daughter would have any relationship with him other than friendship.

  Gu Xuan's family misfortune at a time when his personality was not yet determined would inevitably have an impact on his character. It is not that Ye Lan has prejudices against him, but such growth experiences will necessarily give rise to resentment, indifference and suspicion in his character.

  Please forgive a mother's selfishness, she always hopes that her children will have the best things in the world, so she hopes Xia Xixi keeps a proper distance from Gu Yuexuan. This is also Ye Lan's main purpose for taking the initiative to talk to her this time.

  "Mom, this is bias." Although she originally didn't have much to do with Gu Xiao, Xia Xi Xi never liked hearing others say anything bad about her friends, even if that person was her own mother.

  "You don't have to worry, I'm best friends with Lu Dongqi and Gu Xiao, nothing more than that. But you shouldn't treat Lu Dongqi and Gu Xiao differently, why is Gu Xiao not on the same path as me? Although we have different choices for the future, our sincere friendship has never changed."

  "It's not that Gu Xiao is a bad person, nor do we not allow you to be friends with him. It's just that this child is too precocious and has too much ambition. We don't want you to be influenced by him too much."

  "Mom, it's not that I'm being misled. You may see Gu Xiang as a bad student who doesn't study hard, but what I see is someone who knows his dreams and works hard to achieve them. He won't lead me astray, instead he uses his own experiences to tell me to keep striving towards my goals."

  Ye Lan felt relieved after hearing this, originally her daughter not only grew up but also became sensible. She had her own judgment standard for things, although some ideas were still very childish, but who didn't go through this age? What reason did she have to not believe in her choice and arbitrarily interfere?

  She patted Xixi's shoulder, "Daughter, I'm glad to hear you say that. You've really grown up and have your own ideas. The road ahead is long, and every intersection requires you to make your own choices and move forward on your own. We don't demand that you become an outstanding person. Your father and my wishes are simple: as long as you live each day happily and at ease, we will always be your strongest support."

  The tears that had been welling up in her eyes just now came pouring out, but these tears were tinged with a hint of sweetness. Xia Xi was so grateful to have such open-minded parents, who never demanded that she be the best at everything, but simply hoped that she could live a peaceful and happy life.

  At this moment, she suddenly felt that she was the happiest person in the world. Her parents were not officials or wealthy merchants, and they did not give her the glory of being born with a golden spoon, but from childhood to adulthood, what they gave her was such complete and flawless love, nothing is more important than this.

  At this moment, she finally understood that maybe dreams are not distant and untouchable, nor are they desperate attempts to climb up. This word can be as big as infinite, but also as small as subtle.

  On this warm night that wrapped up all the gloom in her heart, Xia Xi had a simple dream. She hoped to be a good daughter, not letting her parents worry, not making them work hard. They were the people who loved her most in the world and also the people she loved most in this world.

  Parents are there, don't go far away. Forgive her for not having any grand ambitions. She just hopes to be by their side when they need her, holding them with her hands and growing old gracefully.

  Xia Xi didn't know that this simple, within-reach happiness was a luxury for others, even Lu Dongqi, who everyone envied, had never possessed it.

  When he got home, instead of a warm conversation, he was met with an inquiring tone that carried a hint of blame: "Why did you take so long? Did you finish today's homework?"

  His parents are both excellent people, they respect each other like guests, even at the dinner table they maintain a polite and distant reserve.

  They respected each other, never quarreling. Lu Dongqi discovered when he was very young that his father's respect for his mother actually contained a small amount of dissatisfaction. When the two had differing opinions, he would quietly go to the balcony to smoke a cigarette and then come back to compromise.

  Dong Qi knew that he wasn't compromising with his wife, but rather with her father, Dong Qi's uncle. Lu had reached his current position almost entirely thanks to this retired leader, and in front of the old man, Lu always showed a kind of humble respect. This respect extended to his daughter as well, treating her like an honored guest.

  Lu Dongqi's mother was extremely strict with his education from a young age. In her heart, Lu Dongqi must not be surpassed by anyone. If he didn't meet her standards, she would show him a disappointed expression. This kind of requirement became even more severe when Lu Dongqi entered high school and failed to get the first place several times in a row.

  It's rare for Lu Dongqi to grow up in such an environment, but he also has a calm personality and a warm smile, which is unavoidable in his dealings with others.

  When he was young, he loved going to Xia Xi's house and envied the warm atmosphere of their family. In his eyes, that was what a home should be like. Young Lu Dongqi couldn't understand why he couldn't be as close to his parents, so he tried to change things, but all he got in response was his mom saying "You're not allowed to watch TV until you finish your homework."

  As he grew older, he realized that his parents would never get along like Hsi-Hsi's did, so he stopped going to her house, and the relaxed atmosphere there made him feel out of place.

  In Lu Dongqi's eyes, love is about mutual respect and tolerance, protecting a place that may not be warm together. This kind of daily politeness and distance, he himself doesn't like it, let alone Xia Xixi who only has sunshine in her life.

  So he pretended not to see when he saw her hiding small secrets, looked away when she gazed at him with tenderness, and avoided her repeatedly, refusing her.

  As bright and beautiful as Xia Xi, forever unknown, Lu Dongqi, who was used to being cold and distant, feared warmth the most.

  The enemy is the school grass, and it's hard to resolve without popping up windows.
