Chapter 184: Deep Affection is the Most Precious
Chapter 184: Deep Affection is the Most Precious
Chi Feiwan returned empty-handed, so she came to see Teacher Zhang during Monday morning self-study.
Teacher Zhang looked at the list of parents in his hand and sighed: "Are you sure you don't want to attend the coming-of-age ceremony?"
Chi Feiwan nodded without any expression on his face.
In fact, the protagonists of the coming-of-age ceremony are the students, and parents only need to participate in a part. However, all students have parents except Chi Feiwan, and the scene will be very embarrassing at that time.
What's more, one part of the coming-of-age ceremony requires parents to tie up their children's hair. If the teacher replaces the student's parent, the meaning becomes different.
Therefore, for students whose parents cannot come, the class teacher will not suggest that teachers replace them.
Since Chi Feiwan would not be attending the coming-of-age ceremony on Thursday, but all members of the senior year class had to participate, classes for the senior year students were suspended that day and there were no teachers teaching. Chi Feiwan had to study alone in the classroom.
Teacher Zhang didn't think so: "How about this? You can take Thursday morning off and come back to school after lunch. The coming-of-age ceremony and the parents' meeting will only take half a day."
"But..." Chi Feiwan wanted to say something, but Teacher Zhang interrupted her, "No buts, it's decided. I will approve your leave."
"Teacher Zhang signed the leave application and handed it to Chi Feiwan, "Go back and have a good rest. Don't sleep too late on Wednesday night. You can sleep a little longer on Thursday morning."
Chi Feiwan nodded, took the note, and walked out of the office.
Back in the classroom, morning self-study class had not yet ended. As soon as Chi Feiwan returned to her seat, Jiang Huaixu went over to her and asked curiously, "What did you do in the teacher's office?"
Chi Feiwan put the note into the book: "Please give me leave."
"What leave?"
"Thursday is off."
Their conversation was drowned out by the sound of the reading. If they were not close to each other, they would not be able to hear each other clearly.
"Thursday isn't your coming of age ceremony, why are you taking the day off?"
Chi Feiwan gave him a smile and said, "Don't bother Young Master Jiang to worry about that."
Jiang Huaixu felt very uncomfortable when he heard Chi Feiwan's words.
He was just asking casually, but he didn't expect Chi Feiwan to actually ask for leave.
He couldn't help but start to wonder, could it be that she had something important to deal with?
Or did she not want to attend the coming-of-age ceremony, so she asked for leave on purpose?
The more Jiang Huaixu thought about it, the more confused he became, but Chi Feiwan still didn't tell him.
Shen Linxi was in Haicheng this week, and Chi Yizi did not rent a house outside.
No one else knew that he rented a room except Chi Feiwan, so he had to put on an act in front of outsiders.
Even though Shen Linxi had already noticed that he and Chi Feiwan were in a cold war, as long as he didn't talk to Chi Feiwan for a week, Shen Linxi wouldn't know that he had rented a room.
Shen Linxi knew it was a small matter, but it would be a big deal if Mr. Chi knew it.
All senior high school students, whether day or boarding, had to attend evening self-study classes. It was already 23 p.m. when Chi Yizi and Chi Feiwan returned home.
Chi Feiwan changed his shoes and returned to his bedroom.
Shen Linxi was still handling official business in the living room. Chi Yizi threw his schoolbag on the sofa and saw the bouquet and gift box on the coffee table: "Who is it for?"
There was a cup of milk tea next to Shen Linxi's notebook. She took a sip and said, "Of course it's for me."
When Shen Linxi was young, she had no shortage of suitors. Even as she got older, Shen Linxi's charm remained the same, so Chi Yizi was not surprised.
But knowing that Shen Linxi was married, he still gave these things to her. Chi Yizi could only think of one person: "These couldn't be sent by him."
Shen Linxi paused while typing on the keyboard: "Yes."
"This is not good..."
Shen Linxi glanced at him and said, "What's wrong with that? I just accepted the gift she gave me. I didn't do anything out of line. It's just a gift between friends."
"Out of line? Friends?" Chi Yizi sneered, "I'm afraid friends did something out of line in private that shouldn't be done between them."
She took a deep breath, then swung her arm violently and threw the napkin box on the coffee table hard at Chi Yizi. Chi Yizi didn't move, and didn't even raise his eyelids.
The napkin box passed him by and fell to the ground with a thud.
There was only anger on Shen Linxi's face, she was not stunned. She was deliberately avoiding Chi Yizi's throwing.
The world of adults is complicated, and emotions are even more so. In the process of growing up, people gradually learn to weigh the pros and cons, and when facing emotions, they will inevitably consider their own interests and needs. This is why many people say that the emotions of youth are the purest.
When we were young, we were full of beautiful visions and fantasies about love. At that time, love was not mixed with any impurities, but simply liked a person and wanted to be with him/her.
Parents’ love is the truest reflection of marriage.
Shen Linxi and Chi Yuanqing's marriage is unhappy, and Chi Yizi doesn't have much illusions about his own marriage.
He just couldn't understand why two people in love couldn't let go of each other and continued to be entangled. It was not fair to their partners at all.
This is the adult world. Even for Chi Yizi, who became an adult this year, it would be difficult to figure it out in a short period of time.
Chi Yizi turned and walked upstairs, leaving Shen Linxi alone in the living room.
Shen Linxi looked at the bouquet and jewelry box on the coffee table and threw the bouquet into the trash can.
She stared at the jewelry box and curled her lips: "Adult emotions are a bit complicated, but in this age of ambiguity, deep affection is the most precious."

"I must go to Arjun's coming-of-age ceremony!"
The man at the seat sorted out the documents and glanced at her: "Whatever you want!"
Guan Shu stepped forward and slammed her hands on the table: "Did you go to see that bitch again today?"
The man, whose eyes were originally clear, suddenly looked as if he had been poisoned: "Guan Shu, watch your words!"
"As a wealthy lady, don't call me a bitch all the time. Have I been involved in any scandals over the years?"
Guan Shu smiled disdainfully: "You don't have any little lovers, but you do have a first love, and you have been in contact with her forever. Don't think I don't know. Lichuan, you and I have been husband and wife for so many years, I know you too well."
"You're the first one who can justify cheating on your wife." Guan Shu glared at him, not losing in momentum at all.
You have to know that Guan Shu was a lady from a wealthy family after all. She came from a scholarly family. Her ancestors were from the Manchu Yellow Banner. When she was a child, she was even called "Gege". The innate nobility in her bones made her temperament more arrogant than others.
But such arrogance cannot be seen in Li Qiong and Li Chenmu.
Li Chuan looked at her coldly: "When you go there, don't let certain people's defenses break down."
"You!" Guan Shu came out of the study in a rage and bumped into her daughter Li Qiong.
She was still holding back her anger, but the moment she saw Guan Shu, her anger subsided. When she noticed Li Qiong's pale face, she asked in a gentle voice, "Aqiong, what's wrong with you?"
