Can not doing what one wants be called rebirth?

Chapter 370 380. Like
After shopping, Zhou Sining and Song Wan returned to the dormitory and found that the other two roommates had also arrived in Jiangcheng one after another.

When everyone heard the news that the little princess was going to move out, they couldn't hide their surprise.

After all, in this day and age, not many freshmen choose to live outside the school.

What's more, Zhou Sining did not move out due to other objective reasons. She got along very well with her roommates in the dormitory and was quite close to several of them.

"Ningbao, are you really going to move out?"

"Why are we so reluctant to part with you?"

"Without you in the future, everyone will lose so much delicious food."

"Jiang Fengting, please be more careful with your choice of words, hahahaha~"

Song Wan, who was tidying up her closet, interrupted with a giggle and opened the bag of fruit on the table and distributed it to everyone.

That's right.

When Zhou Si Ning was there, there was always an almost unlimited supply of all kinds of imported snacks and premium fruits from tropical regions in the dormitory.

She loves to share and is happy to share, so everyone naturally develops a dormitory culture of helping each other and loving each other.

"Ningbao, in the days without you, remember to come back to your parents' home more often when you have time. We will all miss you."

Jiang Fengting stuck out her tongue, smiled and changed her tone.

"Hey, Ningning lives with her boyfriend?"

My roommate Kong Pingping usually speaks the least, but she also expressed her concern at this moment.

"Yes, that guy bought a house specifically for hiding his beautiful girl. He doted on her like the apple of his eye."

Song Wan leaned close to Kong Pingping's ear and whispered in a voice that everyone could hear.

Even though they had heard something about Lu Jincheng's financial resources, the other people in the dormitory were still shocked again by this unique treatment.

"Well, let me say something to spoil the mood, Ningbao, there won't be any risks for you to go out and live together so early, right?"

Kong Pingping received a relatively conservative education since childhood, so she thought of this problem immediately.

"What's the risk?"

"That's it! Do you need me to explain it to you?"

The two sisters asked knowingly and winked at each other.

"You guys may not understand this since you don't have a boyfriend. I guess Wanwan would understand it better."

Zhou Si Ning tidied up the ends of her hair, smiled, and spread out her hands.

"It's a matter of course, a spring of blossoming and bearing fruit, and both sides should enjoy it."

"But do you still remember the topic the teacher talked about in class?"

Kong Pingping seemed to want to say something but stopped herself.

Speaking of this topic, it was actually during a discussion on women’s issues in a public class that a classmate named Lin Shanshan talked about the importance of education to women.

During the discussion, she said that due to lack of timely education, many girls did not realize the importance of protecting their bodies.

Because of the lack of this knowledge, women will lower their boundaries too early.

This will then lead to relatively more partners, or even promiscuity, which is a dangerous behavior in itself.

These adjustments were slightly packaged with professional language, which prompted everyone to nod their heads.

Bringing it up now is actually a sign of worry and a reminder for Zhou Si Ning to take care of herself.

Song Wan didn't seem to agree with Lin Shanshan's views, and immediately said, "I think what she said at the time was a bit problematic. You can't say that the earlier you start talking, the more confusing it will be."

"Whether it's chaotic or not is not the point. The point is to protect yourself."

"Why do you have to use the word 'protect'? Are you naturally putting your future boyfriend in opposition?"

"Because cleanliness is very important! If I break up with my current boyfriend, how will I explain it to you in the future?"

"Which dynasty do you live in?"

Even though the main person hadn't spoken yet, Song Wan and Kong Pingping quickly started arguing.

Hearing Zhou Si Ning shaking her head repeatedly, she smiled, pinched a grape and put it in her mouth, then interrupted the conversation.

"Student Lin said that education is important for women. There is absolutely no problem with this. I think everyone agrees with this, but you guys are a little off topic."

"First of all, emphasizing the value of chastity and the importance of a woman's first time is itself objectifying women."

"Why aren't the male ones considered valuable items or commodities?"

"Then, protecting yourself and protecting your first experience are completely different concepts. In fact, as long as you take measures and don't give birth to a baby too early, there is no risk at all."

"Also, I understand what Pingping wants to say, but variety does not mean chaos, nor does it mean danger. They cannot be confused."

Zhou Si Ning crossed her hands and stretched lazily, her fingers in the air were painted with a layer of shiny nail polish, leaving a beautiful crescent of white.

Her story did not convince Kong Pingping.

This is of course normal.

The cognitive reshaping of adults cannot be changed by a few words from someone; it requires personal experience.

Zhou Sining's words only made Kong Pingping certain of one thing.

"Ningbao, you look like an experienced person. That means you have already..."

"."

This question was too direct, and the person just pursed his lips and didn't respond.

“No wonder the house was bought so easily.”

Silence is the noise tonight.

Zhou Si Ning's hesitation was actually a disguised acquiescence.

"Hey, you've got the cart before the horse! It's because they are capable and have a good relationship!"

Song Wan frowned and couldn't help but retort.

"Okay, okay, let's not talk about this anymore."

"Pingping, you too, you don't even have a boyfriend, what are you talking about with the two of them? Isn't it just talk?"

Seeing that the differences in everyone's world views would be completely exposed if they continued talking, Jiang Fengting, who remained neutral, immediately changed the subject.

Her eyes rolled, and she recalled the scene she accidentally saw when she passed through the teaching building today.

"By the way Ningning, your sisters are so amazing!"

"Huh? My sister?"

Zhou Si Ning blinked and was suddenly startled.

"It's Guan Yongyi from the Law School. There was a notice downstairs in the school. I saw that she won the first-class scholarship for this semester!"

"She's the only one."

Jiang Fengting came closer, put her hands on Zhou Si Ning's collarbone, and spoke closer.

"I have a friend who is also in the law school. She told me that after the school starts, she and her mentor will attend a forum in the Yangtze River Delta region. That's really amazing."

"It is said that one of her papers has been accepted by a top journal, and the national scholarship for next semester is basically a foregone conclusion!"

"So awesome?"

Hearing this, Song Wan and Kong Pingping also turned their attention.

The National Scholarship represents the highest honor at the university level.

In the fiercely competitive 92-level colleges and universities, those who can stand out and receive this kind of scholarship are either outstanding students or special talents who can make great contributions.

"Then I should be able to get into graduate school directly, right?"

"She's only a freshman, what is she thinking? Whether she goes to graduate school or not is another matter, all we can say is that she has a promising future."

"How did you do that? I also want to pursue an academic career. Ningning, can you find an opportunity to invite your sisters to have a meal together so that we can learn from her."

The roommates were talking one after another, and the discussion was much more lively than the emotional topic just now.

After all, dating is a private matter.

But when it comes to their own future, these girls who have just stepped into the ivory tower will not be indifferent.

"Hahahaha. That's great. She has always been excellent."

"If there's a chance, you can ask her opinion."

Zhou Si Ning, who was quite knowledgeable about the ways of the world, didn't know for a moment whether she should agree or not.

She just responded to everyone's topic, smiled and nodded, and the two dimples at the corners of her mouth hid a bitterness deep in her heart. She couldn't tell how she felt when she heard the news.

A feeling that is hard to express in words.

Are you sincerely happy for Guan Guan’s achievements?

To be honest, a little, but not much.

Are you jealous of Guan Guan's achievements?

That's not it.

If I had to describe this feeling
It should be called, subtle bitterness.

A line of lyrics that Guan Yongyi sang in KTV suddenly popped into her mind.

【Meet someone and your life will change completely】

like
It seems that the person singing is not a best friend!

Recalling Guan Guan's brilliant smile when she held the microphone tightly with one hand, her bright eyes under her short hair, and the color in her voice, I once felt empathy.

After meeting Lu Jincheng, all the destined future and the curve of life seemed to change.

This is true for Guan Yongyi and for myself as well.

wrong!

Including Lu Jincheng's personal assistant He Ying, his roommate Zhang Gaoqiang, classmate Luo Lang, and many other people around him.

Everyone is like this.

That man was like the absolute core of the solar system, with a group of planets revolving around him, rotating evenly, subtly changing the fate of those around him.

Isn’t it an absurd paradox in itself to ask the sun to be single-minded and shine only on one person?
This was probably the question that Zhou Si Ning couldn't figure out no matter how hard she tried before going to bed.

So she stopped thinking about it and just picked up her phone.

Yangcheng, Manyun Guangfu Community.

Guan Yongyi also didn't fall asleep. He curled up in the quilt in a daze, with his soft and slender toes lying in the air.

The long night is dotted with ten points of rose red.

The few days before school started seemed like a year to her.

It was the first time that I learned to say "no" to Lin Lifen, the first time that I confronted the authority that my mother had given me since childhood, and the first time that I wanted to take control of my own life.

But at the same time, she also paid a considerable price.

For example, the severe sanctions imposed on Lin Lifen.

After all, she is still a girl who receives living expenses from her parents on time.

Lin Lifen has always been strong and has had the final say in the law firm for a long time, so it is difficult for her to accept her daughter's rebelliousness and resistance.

Aren't you a tough talker?

Aren't you disobedient?

The living expenses are cut to the bottom, let’s see if you will give in!

Before school started, Guan Yongyi had already learned the bad news.

The living expenses that originally allowed her to maintain a refined and decent life were reduced by Lin Lifen to the same level as a normal college student.

Excluding the water, electricity and network fees naturally generated by Jiangnan Home Community every month, only 1,500 yuan is left.

This is the result Lin Lifen came to after investigation, analysis and calculation.

In addition, due to customs in the Cantonese region, the amount of the New Year's red envelopes is just for good luck, which is far less than the lavish spending in Jiangsu and Zhejiang.

Known daughter Moruomu.

In Lin Lifen's eyes, with Guan Yongyi's spending habits, this amount of money will sooner or later put her into a financial crisis.

My daughter has never experienced a frugal life with restricted finances; she is used to elegance and decency.

From frugality to luxury is easy, from luxury to frugality.

Lin Lifen understands this truth deeply, and she has almost overwhelming confidence in education.

It's only a matter of time before you give in.

[I just bought a plane ticket and will return to school tomorrow afternoon. ]

Whether you are daydreaming, working, or lying in bed and texting your lover.

Guan Yongyi is used to wearing headphones, finding a specific song, and letting it exist as a background for a long time.

Musical notes are switches, and singing can create a specific situation.

She often felt that music and fragrance were wonderful products, like unchanging coordinates in the universe.

[What time is your flight? I'll pick you up.]

The other party responded quickly.

[.I also want you to catch it, but this time it’s not possible. Mom and I will land together. ]

【Go home and live with you? 】

【should be. 】

[Okay, I'll contact He Ying and ask her to send Mianmian over in advance.]

Across the screen, the short-haired girl couldn't help but smile bitterly.

In her headphones was a song that she had played on repeat many times when she was young. Even when she listened to it many years later, it could quickly bring her back to a certain situation.

When she was about to graduate from high school, in order to save time, she often chose to sleep on the desk in the classroom during the lunch break instead of going home for a nap.

During that time, her favorite scent was Oulong's Red Cloud Orange Light, and the music she played most on repeat was "Chasing Dreams with a Childlike Heart".

Every time she was woken up by the bell for class, she would yawn, take out a 30ml bottle of orange perfume from her schoolbag, spray it on her index finger, put her nose close to her fingers, and find the earphones and put them in her ears.

The slightly sour and astringent taste of blood orange, and the yawn that was stimulated by the sleepy eyes.

And the roar at home that crossed fantasy and reality - "Don't compromise for the beauty in your heart until you grow old"

These taken together seem to frame a certain kind of memory of time.

When he found this song again and listened to it, Guan Yongyi was stunned for a moment.

It was as if she was back in middle school. She was still sitting in a noisy afternoon classroom. The ceiling fan was making a humming sound. In her vision, which had just woken up, there was a little hazy water vapor.

“Run Forward”

Such a situation seemed only one step away from her.

Suddenly, I have become an indifferent adult.

[Look, my mother must come to send me to school. My living expenses for next semester are only 1500 yuan. She will probably contact Professor Li to ask her to help pay attention to any disturbance. This is the price of confrontation.]

Do you regret it?

The other party sent an emoticon expressing relief and then asked.

【of course not.】

The evening stars filled half the sky outside the window, and the girl was determined.

They exchanged a few more sweet words until they said good night to each other, then Guan Yongyi habitually checked his circle of friends.

A new development suddenly appeared before my eyes.

Familiar notes, familiar nine-grid pictures.

It looks like the dynamics came from a room, and the text is in its usual everyday style.

[The best gift I received in the New Year~]

Turn over the sheets one by one until you reach the end.

It was a coded house purchase contract with a neat personal signature on it.

The short-haired girl flipped back and clicked again, looking at it for a full two minutes until she squinted her eyes slightly.

She took off her headphones, turned off the music, locked her phone, and buried half of her face in the pillow.

After tossing and turning, she seemed to remember something and pulled the charging cable again, and the faint light came on again.

The fair finger moved to the right side of the screen and slowly tapped it.

A bright like appears below the post.
