Traveling through Thailand
Chapter 157 Graduation is also separation
Because of the relationship between the two families, he and Pran's parents didn't argue during this period, but they didn't say a word to each other. Their relationship was obviously not as good as before. Fortunately, he was mentally prepared for this situation when he was with Pha.
So, despite their cold faces and indifference, he was still able to accept this change. Fortunately, when he approached Pran, they did not say anything to stop him. But in order not to wear out their last bit of patience, he would avoid them when meeting Pran.
On the eve of the graduation exam, the four of them were eating hot pot in the room, and the atmosphere was very cheerful. However, this cheerful atmosphere did not include Pat and Pran.
Not long after the start, Tang Xi and Pha felt that there was something wrong between them.
"What happened to you?" He picked up a piece of meat with chopsticks and put it into Pha's bowl, but his eyes were scanning between the two of them.
Pat stuffed a few leaves into his mouth and said sullenly, "Pran's mother wants him to go abroad."
"???" x2 put down their chopsticks and exclaimed, "What?"
"Why so sudden?" Tang Xi hadn't expected the situation to get so serious this time that he wanted to send Pran abroad. Then one would be abroad, the other in China... With time, maybe, as they thought, the two would go their separate ways.
Thinking of this, the two of them tacitly stuffed themselves with a few slices of beef to calm their frightened hearts.
Pran nodded helplessly. Because of this matter, he and Pat didn't have a good conversation today.
"You called me back yesterday to discuss this matter. I refused, but..."
He didn't finish his words, and he knew that he had tried, but he couldn't change his mother's mind.
"Does your mother want you to develop abroad permanently, or is it just temporary?"
Pran shook his head. "I don't know."
Feeling depressed by the gloomy atmosphere between them and having no appetite, Tang Xi put down his chopsticks and took a sip of his drink: "Well, I was thinking that after you graduated, you would go to another city to develop. That way we could still live together like now. I didn't expect that your mother would want you to go abroad." The meaning of this is self-evident, it is to prevent them from having the possibility of reviving.
"What about you, brother? Have you ever thought about going abroad?"
Pat shook his head even more dejectedly: "No, my dad decided that I should take over his job."
"When did this happen?"
"Just last week."
After his reminder, Tang Xi remembered that he came out of his uncle's study before dinner last Saturday night.
Was this something that was discussed at that time?
"You didn't refuse?"
Pat poked at the food in his bowl and said, "I refused it. I wanted to go to another city with Pran to develop my career. When he mentioned this, I flatly refused. I also said that my sister would take over after graduation. But he disagreed. He said that my sister would go with you in the future. It's hard to say whether she will develop her career in Country T in the future."
Pha was at a loss for words when she heard her brother say this. She knew she would eventually return to China with Brother Tang, after all, his parents' hard-earned fortune was still there. She had made this preparation. She hadn't imagined that one day, she would become the obstacle that stood in her brother's way, preventing him from reaching his beloved.
The atmosphere was silent for a moment. Tang Xi turned off the boiling induction cooker and asked, "What do you think now? Do you want to continue to contact each other, or..." He didn't finish his words and just made a gesture of parting ways.
After a period of silence, Pat was the first to speak: "How is it possible? Pran and I have finally come to this day. How can I give up this relationship just because we are separated?! Right, Pran?" To show the weight of his words, he mentioned Pran at the end.
Under Pat's gaze, Pran nodded firmly: "I won't give up." After all, he has liked her for so long, and he would not be willing to let it end like this.
"But you won't go against your mother's wishes." These words came down, and the strength they had finally gathered up instantly dissipated.
After a few minutes, Pat straightened his chest again: "Don't worry, as long as our relationship is there, we will definitely find a way to have the best of both worlds. And, Tang, I believe in you, you will definitely help me think of a good solution."
Tang Xi suppressed the urge to curl his lips as his gaze met Pha's. The two exchanged a knowing smile and said, "Since we both have our goals, why are we still feeling down? Cheer up and start eating. That way you'll have the energy to face what's next."
After a round of excitement, the atmosphere gradually became lively.
"That's right. We must seize every moment we have together and muster up enough courage to face the various evils in society after graduation. I believe that through our hard work, we will definitely achieve good results."
"Then let's toast to the future with some drinks."
Everyone raised their glasses and, after clearing away the gloom, enjoyed the dinner happily.
After coming out of their room and returning to their own little nest, the two of them lay in the same quilt and quietly enjoyed the peace of the moment.
After brewing for a long time, they still couldn't sleep, so they turned on the lights and sat up.
He poured two cups of warm water and placed them in front of him: "Can't sleep?"
"You don't do the same."
Tang Xi looked at the person in front of him, and the soft part of his heart was very warm. Pha blushed under his loving gaze and picked up the water cup to pretend to drink water to divert his attention.
"What are your plans after graduation?"
He knew she wouldn't be able to sleep tonight, her mind constantly on this matter. Tang Xi gently grasped her hand and clasped it in his, "I've already discussed this with my parents. If you want to stay in Country T, we'll shift our focus here. If you want to return to China with me, I'll work hard to make things better here, so you can have an easy life whenever you come back."
"Are they willing?" Pha was surprised by the answer. He didn't expect his family to make such a choice.
"But this also requires an opportunity, and it's not something that can be realized in the short term."
Pha nodded. Whether their family could gain a foothold in Country T wasn't something she cared about right now. The fact that the person she loved was thinking about their future without her knowledge spoke volumes about how much she held in his heart. This weight alone proved she had made the right choice.
"Why haven't you mentioned this before?"
"You just need to spend your wonderful college life happily. I will be the only one who will take care of the choices you will face in the future." After all, he has someone to rely on. Even if he cannot give her a life like a rich person, he can still try his best to be a middle-class person.
Before graduation, Tang Xi found Xiaoti, who was sprawled out sleeping, and asked him more about Xiao Yi. In the end, he only knew that this man had a lot of power behind him. If he could live under his umbrella, it would be much better than going out and fighting alone.
Little Ladder thought he'd been asking about his host because he wanted to work for him. So, the next day, as soon as the sun rose, he fluttered his wings and flew to his host's house, where he hadn't been for a long time. But it seemed like he was coming back at the wrong time.
He pushed open the unlocked French window, but before he could fly inside, he was stopped dead in his tracks by a sound that sounded like pain, like pleasure. After a second's pause, he retracted the half of his body that had been inside. He closed the French window, flew into the hanging basket on the balcony, and buried himself completely inside.
"I didn't hear it, I didn't hear it, I didn't hear anything just now."
He played the song on repeat, washing away his gradually heating body, but it was all in vain. Even though he hid in the hanging basket, he could still hear the faint sound in such a quiet environment.
