Qiao Yingzi hesitated for a moment, but finally told the reason.

Chapter 207 Zhou Chen's Advice, Let Your Dreams Fly
After listening to what Qiao Yingzi said, Zhou Chen seemed to be thinking about something.
Song Qian was just like in the TV drama. She didn't disagree with Qiao Yingzi's dream, but she wanted Qiao Yingzi to follow her arrangements because in her opinion, her arrangements were the most suitable for her daughter and would allow her to take the least detours.
But Qiao Yingzi had long been fed up with her mother's control over her. She applied to Jinling University not only for her dream, but more importantly, she wanted to escape from her mother's control.
One wants to escape, the other wants to continue to control, so conflicts naturally arise.
But with Qiao Yingzi's personality, she could never beat Song Qian, so she hid on the rooftop and cried out of grievance.
"Zhou Chen, do you think my mother went too far in what happened today?" Qiao Yingzi asked Zhou Chen aggrievedly.
“It’s really a bit excessive.”
Zhou Chen nodded. Whether from the perspective of Qiao Yingzi's friend or from the perspective of an observer, Song Qian was indeed going too far.
"Everyone is an independent individual. It's true that she is your mother, and it's definitely true that she does it for your own good, but you should make your own decisions about your own life. She can give you guidance and help you avoid detours, but she shouldn't directly decide your life."
He has also been a father in the world of All Is Well. Although he is not considered a competent father, he can understand some of the ideas of being a parent.
Qiao Yingzi's mother, Song Qian, is absolutely impeccable in taking care of Qiao Yingzi's life. She is delicate and particular.
She also plays a motivating role in studying. The reason why Qiao Yingzi became a top student and has maintained this status is that Song Qian played at least half of the role.
But the problem is that Song Qian's management of Qiao Yingzi is too strict. Everything must go according to her wishes. No matter how Qiao Yingzi resists, she has a way to solve it. She gives Qiao Yingzi a piece of candy after a beating. Qiao Yingzi is under her control.
If Qiao Yingzi was the kind of person who didn't have any goals or ideals of her own, that would be fine; but the problem is that Qiao Yingzi has her own goals and ideals, so as she gets older, she has become increasingly uneasy about being controlled, and she longs to escape this cage.
Today's incident seems to be a dispute over grades and universities, but in fact it is a matter of control.
Song Qian wanted Qiao Yingzi to apply to a university in Yanjing, so that even if Qiao Yingzi went to university in the future, she could continue to discipline her. But if Qiao Yingzi went to Jinling, the country would be high and the emperor would be far away, and she would not be able to control her daughter at that time, which was what she could not tolerate.
Qiao Yingzi looked at Zhou Chen with a strange look and said, "What you said makes sense."
"What are you looking at? I'm analyzing the problem with you. Also, mother and daughter don't hold grudges overnight. It's useless for you to get angry here. If you have any ideas, you can communicate directly with your mother."
Qiao Yingzi sighed, "That's because you don't understand my mother. It's useless to reason with her. If I could make her understand, I wouldn't feel so sad."
"Then you should be tougher."
Qiao Yingzi rolled her eyes: "How can I be tough? Argue with my mother? That won't work at all."
"Who says quarreling is tough......"
As they were talking, two people suddenly ran over. They were Huang Zhitao and Fang Yifan.
"Yingzi, how are you?" Huang Zhitao ran to Qiao Yingzi, grabbed her hands and asked with concern.
Although Qiao Yingzi's eyes were still red, she was no longer crying: "Taozi, I'm fine."
Fang Yifan was relieved when he saw that Qiao Yingzi was fine, and turned to look at Zhou Chen: "Zhou Chen, why are you here?"
Zhou Chen said, "I am the first one to arrive. I just saw Qiao Yingzi running here crying, and I took the trouble to comfort her."
"Shut up, who is crying? Stop talking nonsense."
Qiao Yingzi shouted in shame and anger, but when she met Zhou Chen's half-smile, her face suddenly flushed and she quickly changed the subject.
"Fang Hou, you are really good. You climbed to such a high place to take a picture of Tao Zi, and then fell down. What do you think?"
Fang Yifan chuckled and said, "For my goddess, I will go through fire and water without blinking an eye."
"Huh, disgusting." Qiao Yingzi looked disgusted.
Huang Zhitao said even more embarrassedly: "Fang Hou, don't talk nonsense, but in order to avoid punishment, you actually pretended to faint. I'm surprised you thought of that."
Fang Yifan: "I couldn't help it. If I didn't pretend to faint, the consequences would be disastrous."
"Yingzi, I just saw you arguing with your mother. What happened?" Huang Zhitao asked.
Qiao Yingzi had already told Zhou Chen about it, and now she didn’t want to say more: “Nothing, just a little conflict, and the balloon exploded.”
"It's okay if it explodes. You can write here." Fang Yifan took the initiative to offer the balloon.
Qiao Yingzi: "I'm not writing on yours, I'm writing on Taozi's balloon."
Huang Zhitao certainly had no objection. He took out the pen and balloons and asked Qiao Yingzi to write down her goal.
"Zhou Chen, you didn't take the balloon either?"
After Qiao Yingzi finished writing, she remembered that Zhou Chen hadn't written anything either, so she said, "You can write on Fang Hou's balloon."
Fang Yifan immediately put the balloon in front of Zhou Chen when he heard it: "You're welcome, just write on it."
Zhou Chen said: "I really don't have any dreams."
"No dreams?" Qiao Yingzi and the other two looked at Zhou Chen in astonishment.
Zhou Chen started to talk nonsense again: "I really don't have any dreams. Look, I'm only 18 years old, and I'm already worth hundreds of millions. I can go to any university and become a boss when I graduate. Nowadays, as long as you have enough money, most dreams can come true, so I really can't think of any dream that I need to fight for."
"Depend on."
Qiao Yingzi and the other two all looked disdainful: "Zhou Chen, you are so shameless."
"This is a fact."
Zhou Chen chuckled, then picked up a pen and wrote a sentence on Fang Yifan's balloon.
"No regrets in every world."
Fang Yifan read out the sentence Zhou Chen wrote, and then asked in confusion: "What does this sentence mean?"
Qiao Yingzi said with a chuckle: "If you don't want to leave any regrets, then don't leave any regrets. And every world? How many worlds do you think you can live in?"
Zhou Chen did not refute because Qiao Yingzi stated the truth. He could indeed live in many worlds, but wanting to have no regrets in every world was really just a dream.
Just then, the countdown on the radio sounded.
"Ten, nine, eight, seven..."
"Hurry, hurry, it's time to let it fly."
Fang Yifan shouted excitedly, holding the balloon in his hand high up, ready to release it at any time. Huang Zhitao and Qiao Yingzi beside him did the same.
"one."
In an instant, countless colorful balloons flew into the sky, and amid cheers, the balloons carrying Fang Yifan and Zhou Chen's dreams also flew up.
"Yingzi, tell your parents later that you will stay in school to study in the afternoon, and then we will go to the movies. I have already told my parents."
Qiao Yingzi hesitated after hearing what Fang Yifan said: "I just had a conflict with my mother. It's not good to lie to her like this, right?"
Fang Yifan quickly advised, "This is not called cheating. Senior year is about to start, and it's rare to have time to relax. I've already made an appointment, and Zhou Chen and Tao Zi are alone at home. Now it's just you who's missing. You can't let us down. After the movie, Zhou Chen said he would treat us to a big dinner, right, Zhou Chen?"
Zhou Chen nodded and said, "Yes, let's have a big meal. I will treat you to whatever you want to eat."
Fang Yifan smiled and said, "See? Mr. Zhou has spoken. Eat whatever you want. What are you still hesitating about, Yingzi?"
Huang Zhitao also advised: "Yes, Yingzi, indulge yourself before school starts. When you really enter the third year of high school, it won't be so easy."
Of course Qiao Yingzi also wanted to play, but she was concerned about her mother. However, when she saw her friends trying to dissuade her, she began to waver.
"Then I'll tell my dad later and ask him to tell my mom."

Chapter 208 Watching a Movie
"Zhou Chen, where did you go just now? I looked for you everywhere but couldn't find you."
After the oath-taking ceremony, Li Meng, who had made some time, found Zhou Chen, who was reading in the classroom, and started questioning him in a stern tone.
Zhou Chen frowned slightly. He knew Li Meng meant well, but Li Meng's tone was too harsh. He was not a child, so he naturally felt unhappy.
"Teacher Li, I have written my dream on Fang Yifan's balloon."
Li Meng said dissatisfiedly: "Didn't I tell you in advance that I would let you wait for me? As your elder, I will help you realize your dream."
"Teacher Li, you said that, but I didn't agree. Although you are a teacher, I also have the right to choose my elders, right?"
"Kid, I'm doing this for your own good, and you're still not happy."
Li Meng seemed very unhappy when she heard what Zhou Chen said. She wanted to help with good intentions, but Zhou Chen didn't appreciate it.
"Teacher Li, I know you are doing this for my own good, but I am an adult, don't I have the right to refuse?"
Seeing Zhou Chen still saying this, Li Meng waved her hands angrily: "Okay, whatever you want, go study, I'm leaving."
Zhou Chen saw Li Meng leave in anger, but he didn't care. He really didn't want Li Meng to spend too much energy on him. He wanted to spend his senior year alone and leisurely. If Li Meng targeted him, his idea would definitely not come true.
So he hoped that Li Meng would get angry and stop caring about him.
At noon, the students all went to eat with their parents, and Zhou Chen also found a small restaurant near the school and had a quick bite.
It was not until after one o'clock in the afternoon that Fang Yifan and his friends returned to school.
"Taozi, Yingzi, Zhouchen, let's go, let's go."
Because the school has not officially started yet, students can decide for themselves whether to stay in school to study. However, Fang Yifan obviously has no intention of studying. The first thing he did when he arrived at school was to urge Zhou Chen and the others.
For Fang Yifan, pursuing the goddess and inviting her to watch a movie is more important than studying anything.
"Have you bought the movie tickets?" Qiao Yingzi asked.
"I've bought it. It's for 3pm. There's still an hour left. We can catch it by bus."
"Walk."
Seeing Zhou Chen and the other four leaving the classroom, Da Xiong, who was also in the classroom, asked, "Hey, Fang Hou, where are you going?"
"It's none of your business, just read your novel."
Fang Yifan said something retorted, and then the four of them left the classroom in a hurry.
When they arrived at the school gate, Fang Yifan urged, "You may not be able to make it in time by taking the bus, let's take a taxi."
"it is good."
Zhou Chen and his friends naturally had no objection. There was a bus stop in front of the school gate, and they quickly got a taxi.
"Zhou Chen, you sit in the front." Fang Yifan immediately prepared to sit in the back row.
Qiao Yingzi and Huang Zhitao pulled him back at the same time. Qiao Yingzi said, "You invited us to the movie, so of course you have to pay for the fare. You can sit in the front."
Fang Yifan said depressedly: "Why? I paid and can't I choose my seat?"
Zhou Chen naturally knew Fang Yifan's little thoughts, but he didn't care. "I'll sit in the front and I'll pay later."
After saying that, he sat in the co-pilot seat.
Fang Yifan shrugged and said to Qiao Yingzi, "See? You can't blame me. It was Zhou Chen's own choice." Then he sat in the back seat.
Huang Zhitao pushed Qiao Yingzi: "Yingzi, you sit in the middle."
"it is good."
Qiao Yingzi got into the car immediately, and then Huang Zhitao got in.
"Yingzi, you." Fang Yifan pointed at Qiao Yingzi with a wink, and Qiao Yingzi rolled her eyes at him.
"Stop talking nonsense. Where are you going, Fang Hou?" Zhou Chen turned his head and asked Fang Yifan.
"Globe Cinema."
After the taxi started, Qiao Yingzi asked Fang Yifan, "Fang Hou, why did you run so far to watch a movie?"
In fact, there is a large shopping mall around Chunfeng Middle School, which has a cinema. However, the Universal Cinema is quite far from Chunfeng Middle School, and it takes 20 minutes by car to get there.
Fang Yifan said smugly, "You don't know this, right? Aren't you worried about being discovered by your mother? That's why I chose a movie theater that's far away so your mother wouldn't find out."
"hehe."
Qiao Yingzi sneered disdainfully. Even if she chose the nearest cinema, her mother wouldn't find out because she would never go to the cinema alone.
"I think you just want to please Taozi. The Universal Cinema is much more prosperous than our place."
Huang Zhitao pretended to be angry and pushed Qiao Yingzi, while Fang Yifan laughed and said, "Of course, if I don't please my goddess, how can I please you? If you want someone to please you, go find Zhou Chen, ah!"
Looking at Fang Yifan who was screaming in pain, Qiao Yingzi snorted, "If you dare to talk nonsense again next time, I will tear your mouth apart."
