36: Chapter 36 Everything for the Child!
Qiao Yu never expected that his casual words would inspire soone like Zhou Shuang to consider going to high school.
Listening to him, it seed like he planned to work even harder in high school to make up for what he owed in middle school.
Of course, if he genuinely managed to get in, there were three years’ ti.
It wasn’t all that difficult; the key was persistence.
Qiao Yu really didn’t know if Zhou Shuang’s determination was that strong.
If it was, he wasn’t sure if he could consider it a virtuous deed on his part.
Qiao Yu always believed that people should do what they are good at, and studying isn’t the only way out.
But after hearing Zhou Shuang today, Qiao Yu suddenly felt he might have been a bit one-sided in his view.
Especially when he thought about how affordable the tuition at Huaxia University was.
Even at top-tier universities like Huaqing or Yanbei, the annual tuition was only a bit over five thousand yuan.
Five thousand yuan to enjoy top-notch dostic educational resources, it felt almost free compared to foreign universities.
Not taking advantage of this seed like a waste.
There are not many opportunities for a common well-off family in the city to legally and compliantly take advantage of national resources.
Getting into a prestigious public university is definitely one of the simplest, most harmless, and most worthwhile deals.
So as soone who has always believed that not taking a good deal when going out is a loss, Qiao Yu thought he should seriously consider getting into a good university.
Having things on his mind, he lost his appetite and casually picked up two dishes from a small restaurant.
When he got ho, Qiao Xi tossed the phone to him.
“The good guy called you.”
“What did he say?”
“Didn’t tell , just asked you to call back.”
“Oh.” Answering this, Qiao Yu handed the als he brought back to Qiao Xi and took the phone to call Lan Jie.
“Qiao Yu, are you charging classmates to teach them problems in class?”
“Hmm…yes.”
“Last ti you promised not to worry about classmates’ ager living expenses.”
“Well, it wasn’t Ma Yufei or Lu Jia, the one paying was quite wealthy.
And you had go to the podium to explain problems in the last class; wasn’t that helping with my promotion?”
After Qiao Yu asked this, there was a long silence from the other side.
“Here’s the plan, Qiao Yu.
After the mock exam results co out, I’ll help you apply for a scholarship subsidy from the school, about 1500 yuan.
In the Olympic Competition class, spread so of that spirit.
If any classmates have difficulties, help them out for free.”
“Oh, well…fine then.” Qiao Yu agreed, mainly not wanting to make things difficult for the good guy, but he added, “If I can help, that is.
If not, there’s nothing I can do.”
“Try to do well in the exam tomorrow; good grades are persuasive.” After a long silence, the other side nagged again.
“Don’t worry, Teacher Lan.”
He hung up the phone and sat directly at the dining table, seeing Qiao Xi with a can of beer.
“You promised Keke last ti to drink less.” Qiao Yu said seriously.
“Hmm?” Qiao Xi looked up at his son, a bit puzzled.
“Also, because you want to apply for college, I promised Teacher Lan to quit smoking, and now I don’t smoke a single cigarette!” Qiao Yu added.
Qiao Xi realized: “Quit drinking?”
Qiao Yu nodded seriously and said, “Yes, quit drinking!”
The mother and son exchanged looks for a long ti, Qiao Xi seed very troubled.
“Why do you suddenly want to quit drinking?” Qiao Xi asked with a frown.
Qiao Yu replied, “I used to think that just getting by was enough, living a modest life, being happy one day, unhappy another.
The quality of life is more important than its length.
But now I’ve decided to go to Beijing for a prestigious university.
I want to succeed, make big money, and let you enjoy a life you can’t even imagine now.
If you drink every day like this, by the ti I’m successful, who will I share it with if you’re gone?”
Qiao Xi gave Qiao Yu a glare and said, “Don’t say that your mother won’t have such a short life.
Even if she passes, you can marry Keke.
Enjoy your good life together.”
Qiao Yu stubbornly replied, “Well, if you’re not around, and that shaless man isn’t dead, and he happens to know about my success and fa, and cos back from abroad to recognize kin and asks to support him, what then?”
“He wouldn’t dare!” Qiao Xi gritted her teeth.
“What wouldn’t he dare?
Besides, by then you’d be gone; who can clarify things that happened decades ago?
That man could just hire a diator to plead his case, saying he’s my biological father.
Given my success, I couldn’t ignore him, right?
What should I do?
You love those reunion shows, right?
They always have stories like this, don’t they?
If he had any sha, he wouldn’t have abandoned us back then, left a few thousand yuan, and just ran abroad by himself, right?
Ha, not even enough for prenatal nutrition costs!”
Qiao Yu created a scene that could drive Qiao Xi mad with anger.
“Wouldn’t you just throw him out the door?” Qiao Xi demanded angrily.
“Co on, Mom.
In the scenario we’re practicing now, I’m already a very successful celebrity!
If I personally throw my dad out the door, I’d be scolded to death online!
Know about ‘small essays’?
If that guy shalessly finds his way here, writes sothing online, I’d be deed unfilial!
You know how many people resent successful people, right?
Who knows how many people would curse online, even hire people to defa and place all sorts of labels on !
Are there fewer people who are generous on behalf of others?
Especially online!
What should I do?”
As Qiao Yu said this, Qiao Xi’s face turned red with anger, breathing more heavily.
Qiao Yu struck while the iron was hot: “So just help out.
I’m really turning over a new leaf, working hard to get into a good university, and striving to beco a big business mogul like Rebus or Ma Xiaoyun.
Your task is to take care of yourself, try to live a bit longer.
Once I’m successful, you’ll be responsible for enjoying life.
If he does show up shalessly, you can throw him out, and I’ll think of a way to let him endure the worst life possible later.
We’re mother and son; we’re united.
Make his future filled with regret.
What do you think?”
Qiao Xi nodded but couldn’t help glancing at the cases of alcohol next to the dining table, then tentatively asked, “So… how about I finish those cases first before quitting?”
Qiao Yu insisted, “Is that any way to quit?
If you really want to quit, start today; I’ll split those cases later.
When Grandpa passed away, several families helped us out, each one will get a case, and I’ll deliver them tonight.
If the headaches persist, go see a doctor and take so dicine.”
Qiao Xi eventually nodded: “I always told you not to buy such expensive alcohol!
But you’d better promise , you must get into a prestigious university to make your grandpa proud!
No one in our neighborhood has gotten into Yanbei or Huaqing yet!”
“Don’t worry, this is the easiest step.
Once I decide whether to go to Yanbei, Huaqing, or another good school, you can make the call for .”
Qiao Yu promised very earnestly.
