Huo Yan was stunned and slowly raised his eyes to look at Ali.

I handed the menu to the waiter, motioned for him to do this first, and then asked Ali:

"Why? Such a good opportunity, are you really going to give it up?"

When we chatted on QQ a few days ago, she said that she was ready and anxious to learn how to drive. She was planning to buy her own car to go to school when she was abroad.

It's only been a few days, how come things have changed?

Ali remembered, more than a month ago.

The two of them had sat and talked like this before, and at that time she begged Huo Yan to give her the chance.

In the end, she was given the opportunity, but she didn't want it anymore.

"Going abroad is not necessarily the best way. I'd better stick to my original plan." Ali said seriously.

This is not impulsive, Ali is a relatively rational person.

But Huo Yan couldn't understand why she suddenly stopped going abroad.

"Why?" Huo Yan asked again.

She had always dreamed of studying abroad, and Ali's behavior made her feel a little stuck.

She has always been so determined to go abroad, and she has to admit that she is frustrated, but now Ali tells her that she has to give up this opportunity. Isn't all her thinking for so long in vain?

Subconsciously, I have an urge to compete with others, but now I realize that this goal has become ridiculous.

Ahri analyzed carefully with Huo Yan:

"Going abroad isn't the best option for me. I have to consider my own circumstances. Costs, and future options. We can forget about costs, but Huo Yan, we're already seniors. If we were to go abroad, would I continue my senior year or pursue graduate studies? If I had this opportunity a year earlier, I would have taken it. Also, don't forget that exchange students have to return home, and I don't think it's a profitable investment."

The reasons given by Ali were also mentioned by Zhuang Zhoucheng. They do have a lot of problems at this stage.

Either a year earlier or wait another year.

"But this opportunity is hard to come by."

Huo Yan felt sorry for Ali.

"It's not worth it. Calculate the cost of studying abroad for a year. Can you really learn impressive skills after a year? That's not the case. How many international students return home and still achieve nothing? It's just like the traditional idea of their parents that going to college will make you successful. But what's the reality? As long as you have the ability to make a living, what does it matter whether you have studied abroad?" Ali spoke again.

Huo Yan nodded slowly. Okay, she was convinced by Ali.

"No matter what, I will support your choice. However, after I graduate, I must study abroad. I remember when I was taking architectural history classes, I really wanted to visit the Bauhaus. However, Zhuang Zhoucheng said that the Bauhaus is no longer popular, with each generation being worse than the previous one. He will arrange for me to go to a better school, possibly Cambridge University in the UK or Stanford University in the US. Well, I'm open to both universities."

Huo Yan suddenly smiled, still having infinite aspirations for the future.

Ahri rolled her eyes at Huo Yan and snorted coldly:

"How can I not accept it? These two universities select their students, not be selected by them, right? Of course you can go, but you mustn't even fail the entrance exam."

"Ahri!"

Huo Yan's face fell. Does anyone have such a friend?

Ahri waved her hand, "Just kidding."

Why did Ali give up the hard-earned opportunity?

Because she was pregnant, which she had not expected.

Kou Yuancheng is different from Fang You. The previous pregnancy was a lie to Fang You, but this time it is serious.

Kou Yuancheng also knew that Ali was pregnant, but Kou Yuancheng meant that Ali could choose whether to give birth to the baby, get married, or go abroad.

Ali never thought that Kou Yuancheng had such feelings for her. It was an accident that the two of them went to bed together. They drank too much and that's when something happened.

Afterwards, neither of them mentioned it again, as if it had never happened.

It was Ali's attitude that surprised Kou Yuancheng, and this alone made him plan to remarry.

Because Ali meets his requirements in all aspects, and most importantly, she is really young.

Ali had considered refusing and going abroad.

But if you look further ahead, after going abroad, you can return home after a year.

Yes, she can find a job with good pay, maybe Kou Yuancheng can arrange something better for her?

By marrying Kou Yuancheng, she would not only have a bright future, but also status.

Identity is something that people living at the foot of the mountains yearn for throughout their lives.

What's worse, there are not many people in Kyoto who can speak loudly to Kou Yuancheng, so this is a good opportunity for Qian Ziang to see whether she can't live a better life without him.

So Ali thought about it and decided to give up the opportunity to go abroad.

Ali didn't eat much of the seafood feast because of his health condition. Huo Yan, on the other hand, was full and satisfied. In order to get rid of the fishy smell in his mouth, he rested for half an hour and then drank various bitter teas and sprayed mouth freshener.

Ali felt sorry for Huo Yan as she watched her struggles.

"Are you so afraid of that person?"

Ali knew that Huo Yan was engaged. They were already in this relationship, but he still had to be so cautious. It was really sad.

Huo Yan was stunned for a moment and asked:

"Aren't you afraid of your partner?"

Huo Yan didn't know much about Ahri's current boyfriend. Ahri herself didn't want to say much, so Huo Yan didn't ask too much.

Huo Yan trusts A Li enough, so if he doesn’t tell her now, it means he can’t tell her.

If she keeps asking about things that can't be said, wouldn't that be annoying?

It was getting dark when Huo Yan took a taxi to the Oriental Pearl Tower, and Zhuang Zhoucheng came out to pick him up.

Huo Yan stood outside, smiling at the tall man walking towards her. When Zhuang Zhoucheng approached, Huo Yan jumped onto the steps and said with a smile:

"Carry me, please?"

"it is good."

Zhuang Zhoucheng glanced at Huo Yan's face and there was no doubt that she was in a good mood today.

Yes, for her, such a large sum of money in her pocket is like a pie falling from the sky, picked up for free, how could she not be happy?

Zhuang Zhoucheng half-knelt in front of her, and Huo Yan pounced directly on his back.

Zhuang Zhoucheng has broad and solid shoulders.

Huo Yan felt so comfortable lying on his back, her arms around his neck, her face rubbing against it. Her voice was soft as she murmured:

"Zhuang Zhoucheng, you are the best."

Zhuang Zhoucheng smiled and asked, "Did you have fun today?"

"Well, thank you." Huo Yan responded immediately.

Zhuang Zhoucheng smiled bitterly, ignoring what she was doing. As long as she was happy, that was enough.

When they entered the villa, Huo Yan still refused to get out of bed, so Zhuang Zhoucheng put her on the counter beside the entrance.

"You don't even take off your shoes?"

"Will you help me?" Huo Yan smiled at him.

Zhuang Zhou admitted that when he was around, she was too lazy to even bend down.

When Zhuang Zhoucheng carried Huo Yan into the house, Huo Yan hugged his neck and kissed him on the face.

"I missed you today because I spent your money."

Zhuang Zhoucheng put Huo Yan on the sofa and kissed her face:

"Was it more than five seconds?"

Huo Yan looked at him in confusion. Zhuang Zhoucheng picked up her slippers and placed them next to her.

"Did you ever think of me for more than five seconds?" he asked again.

Huo Yan rolled his eyes:

"Exceed all that, okay? Don't think I'm so heartless."

Zhuang Zhoucheng sat down beside her, holding her hand and said:

"There's something I need to ask you for. Ji Wuwei will be getting engaged on the 25th of this month, next Wednesday in the capital. Are you willing to attend?"

Huo Yan gradually put away the smile on his face, pursed his lips reluctantly, and refused in a low voice.

"Can I not go? I'm doing an internship. You know, internships are very important. I haven't written a single weekly internship diary. And I haven't filled out any of the internship reflections or forms. Zhuang Zhoucheng, can I not go?"

Huo Yan glanced at Zhuang Zhoucheng and turned away. He knew very well how awkward it would be for her to see Ji Wuwei again, but he forced her to do so again and again.

What on earth was he thinking?

Zhuang Zhoucheng held Huo Yan's hand, pressed her round fingers, and rubbed them one by one.

"Whether you go or not is up to you. I'm just telling you this. To be honest, from a personal perspective, I don't want you and Ji Wuwei to meet again. But from a public perspective, Ji Wuwei is our nephew. How can an uncle and aunt not show up when their nephew is engaged?"

Huo Yan didn't say anything. What he meant was that he wanted her to go.

She didn't want to and kept silent.

"I went to take a shower."

Huo Yan sat for a while, then stood up and wanted to leave.

Zhuang Zhoucheng pulled the man back and said, "Can running away be the solution to the problem?"

It's not that he wants to force her to face it. On the day of Ji Wuwei's engagement, so many famous families will show up. As the man of the banker, can he attend without his wife?

If Huo Yan hadn't shown up, would the scene have been justifiable?

"I told you I don't want to go. I'm doing an internship. It's not because of anything. I have my own things to do. Zhuang Zhoucheng, you promised me that you wouldn't force me to do anything I don't want to do. Are you breaking your promise now?"

Huo Yan was a little annoyed, his face sullen, he bit his lip and looked away.

Zhuang Zhoucheng let go of his hand and said, "Go take a shower."

Huo Yan glanced at Zhuang Zhoucheng and knew that he might be angry.

But she didn't care. If she went, she would really feel embarrassed, so she turned around and went upstairs.

Zhuang Zhoucheng pressed his eyebrows, how could he make her agree?

In fact, this was not her wish, it was a matter of face for the banker.

Besides, he was worried about leaving her alone in Kyoto.

He was afraid that she would forget what her husband looked like and his name if they didn't see him for a day or two.

Their relationship had finally eased, so how could he let her stay in Kyoto?

Huo Yan returned to the Oriental Pearl Tower this weekend, and Zhuang Zhoucheng never let her go out again.

There was undoubtedly a lot of noise on Monday. Zhuang Zhoucheng ignored her, said hello to the guard and went to work.

Huo Yanhuo died. She called Shengshi to ask for leave, but the director told her directly that her internship period had expired and she didn't need to come to work. The documents that needed stamping had already been taken away by someone personally, so she didn't need to worry too much.

Huo Yan was so angry that she wanted to bang her head against the wall. She had originally thought that Zhuang Zhoucheng had become a little better, but now he was controlling her like before.

Doesn't everything he said when we got engaged count anymore?

Huo Yan couldn't leave the house, so she returned to the villa and jumped directly onto Zhuang Zhoucheng's bed, stepping on it non-stop. Not satisfied yet, she threw the quilt on the ground and jumped on it like a fish.

"I told you not to let me go to work, I told you to lock me up, I told you to lock me up! I'll step on you, I'll step on you, I'll step on you to death!"

Zhuang Zhoucheng has a little bit of mysophobia. The girl didn't dare to yell at him in person, but now she's stabbing him from behind.

Huo Yan went crazy for as long as Zhuang Zhoucheng was gone, until Zhuang Zhoucheng came back.

When Zhuang Zhoucheng came back, Huo Yan was in the kitchen with a shiny knife, chopping the cantaloupe as if it were Zhuang Zhoucheng's head and having a lot of fun.
