Chapter 376: Chapter 376: An Unrefusable Request
'Look at you,' Huang Jingping handed him a tissue, 'what's the big deal? It's really just a visit, nothing more.'
Really nothing more? Then why bother going, a topic Feng Yiping really didn't want to bring up right now.
'Jingping, what I told you was just my wishful thinking, it has nothing to do with her, and she doesn't know what I'm thinking,' Feng Yiping said earnestly as he held her hand.
'I know. I just think that since she is someone you definitely can't let go of, it's better to establish contact sooner rather than later. Don't you want to open a kindergarten? Zhang Yan, like me, also studied to be a teacher. Of course, I personally would really like to meet her too.'
When Huang Jingping said this, she didn't look at Feng Yiping, but at a beam of light that happened to be shining on the table. It could be clearly seen that there were very fine particles tumbling about in the beam.
Feng Yiping was extremely embarrassed. This was the only topic between him and Huang Jingping that was difficult to bring up. However, what can you say? It's better for Huang Jingping to bring it up than for Feng Yiping to bring it up himself. Besides, he knew that what she said was all true.
Moreover, she really wanted to go and see her, and Feng Yiping couldn't stop her.
'I know that if I hadn't left my job to be by your side, we would have probably just drifted apart after junior high school. I know that's what you had planned, and I know that you planned it that way to avoid this situation.
I'm very happy now, with you and having met your family. But I think that if I hadn't cut myself off from my future and come to be by your side, making me your responsibility, then she would be the one doing these things with you in the future!
So, no matter how happy I am now, I am also very uneasy. I have taken too much that originally belonged to her. More importantly, I don't want you to have the slightest bit of regret. Being with you, I feel very complete and satisfied. I hope you can feel the same way. Just consider these things I want to do as a remedy.' Huang Jingping also pressed his hand and said earnestly.
Feng Yiping could not think about anything else at the moment. He squeezed next to Huang Jingping and took her hand. 'It's not your fault, it's all because of me. You were my first love, my first kiss, and my first time. I'm also very happy and content to be with you now, and I'm very grateful.
After graduating from junior high school, I did have those plans, but it actually hurt my heart to make that decision. It wasn't that you made yourself my responsibility, and I had to accept you. In fact, I really wanted to be responsible for you from the bottom of my heart.
Anyway, it's all my fault, I was too greedy, and I didn't handle it well.'
His words were a bit incoherent. He didn't want Huang Jingping to feel guilty, not even a little bit. The biggest responsibility for the situation today, no matter what, was of course on him, and he had to bear it.
Feng Yiping knew that Huang Jingping's entire body and soul were tied to him. Huang Jingping didn't want him to have the slightest flaw, and he felt the same way!
'What are you talking about? There are so many people around,' Huang Jingping heard him say it out loud, and she was a little embarrassed. She lightly hit him, 'Okay, I know what you're thinking. You really shouldn't think too much about it. I just want to go see her, okay?'
She said these words with a smile.
Of course she could feel Feng Yiping's nervousness, and she certainly understood the meaning behind his words. She also knew that Feng Yiping was nervous and cared about her, as could be seen from the contentment and relaxation she usually felt when she was with him.
The main thing was that after the twists and turns of the second half of the year, she had also figured out a lot of problems.
'Okay then,' Feng Yiping agreed firmly, and no matter how things developed in the future, sooner or later they would meet again.
'Let's go, let's go buy a gift. What do you think she'd like? Never mind, I'll think of something myself.' Huang Jingping took Feng Yiping to the checkout.
'Oh, by the way, the cosmetics and jewellery that Gao Yiming brought from Hong Kong, you got two of each, right?' As they walked out of the warm café, Huang Jingping leaned coldly against him.
Feng Yiping suddenly understood that none of his little actions had escaped his pillow partner.
'Look, what are you nervous about? I can understand. If I stayed at the school I was assigned to, would you have done the same thing?'
...
Zheng Jiayi drove back to her home in the city today. Of course, her mother wasn't there, her father hadn't come home from work yet, and the uncles and aunts she didn't know were not at her door.
She looked in the fridge and saw that there were still quite a few ingredients, so she estimated the time it would take to steam the rice and cook the three-colour stir-fried prawns, scallion tofu, tomato beef, fried vegetable stems with bacon, lean pork and liver soup.
University life has been a comprehensive improvement for her. Apart from the knowledge she has gained, the two years of university life have also transformed her from an arrogant little princess into a grounded and normal girl.
Zheng Bosong finished work on time and declined his colleagues' invitation to go for hotpot. Due to his status, he rarely joins his colleagues for dinner, not to mention the various requests that may arise at the table. Another main reason is that he is the man of a mayor.
A mayor's wife can go to all kinds of meetings with a spring in her step, and during the meal she can say with a slightly proud tone, 'My husband is such and such, but as a seven-foot-tall man, he can't go around bragging that his wife is so and so amazing.'
In front of the door, he unexpectedly saw his daughter's car. Oh, what day is it, she's actually back?
Zheng Jiayi, who was already at home, heard the car honk. Zheng Bozhen opened the door, and she was waiting behind it. 'Dad, you're home!' Zheng Jiayi obediently took the briefcase from her father.
'What's that smell? Has my daughter already cooked dinner? Is the sun shining from the west today?'
'What are you talking about? Dad, look, it's just been made, I've just taken off my apron. Isn't it good? It's got the right look, the right smell and the right taste, doesn't it?' She dragged her father to the table.
'Well, it's not bad, it's got a bit of my real talent in it. I'll call your mum, she can't miss this rare occasion.'
'Don't bother, she'll never come back.' In fact, today, Zheng Jiayi didn't want her mother to be there either.
'Fang, our little princess has cooked a rare home-cooked meal. Do you want to come back? Oh, okay.'
'You're right, your mother can't come back for lunch, but she said she must be left some, for her to eat in the evening.'
These words made Zheng Jiayi feel a little embarrassed. Indeed, before going to university, she didn't even seem to have washed a bowl at home once.
She really did save a little bit of everything on the plate. It was the middle of the day, but Zheng Boyong made an exception and had a little drink. He took a sip of the wine and a bite of his daughter's cooking, looking very contented.
Seeing her father's happy face, Zheng Jiayi also hesitated, but she had already promised Feng Yiping, so while her father was half drunk, she asked, 'Dad, how much money do we have at home?'
