Chapter 165 Zhai Lin Agrees
When Lu Qingxi's score of 698 was announced, the whole college was in an uproar. This score was not only astonishing, but also made everyone look at this girl from the Zhai family with new eyes. She proved her strength with her amazingly high score and became a true academic master in the eyes of everyone.
The relationship between Lu Qingxi and Jimo Chu is undoubtedly the most hotly discussed topic on campus recently. Not only do they both excel in their studies, they are also affectionately called the "student couple" by everyone.
Previously, Jimo Chuan won first place in the training camp, which amazed everyone. His talent and hard work won wide recognition and became a role model in the minds of many students. Lu Qingxi also won the championship on her own during the subsequent training camp, showing her extraordinary strength.
Although the difference in their grades once made people mistakenly believe that their academic levels were very different, Lu Qingxi's outstanding performance broke this prejudice. Today, they are known as the "academic couple" not only because of their outstanding academic achievements, but also because of their tacit understanding and harmony.
The post on the school forum was highly recommended and the popularity continued to rise. People left messages to discuss and express their admiration and envy for Lu Qingxi and Jimo Chu. Some praised them as a true academic duo, while others expressed the hope that they could also have such an excellent partner.
However, this was undoubtedly a heavy blow to the rest of Lu Qingxi's suitors. They watched the sweet interaction between Lu Qingxi and Jimo Chu, and their hearts were filled with bitterness and reluctance. But in any case, they had to admit that Lu Qingxi and Jimo Chu were indeed a very suitable couple.
Lu Qingxi didn't care too much about all this. She only knew that as long as she could make it to the midterm exam in her junior year, she would have completed her mission.
When Zhai Xingchen learned that Lu Qingxi had scored high, he was shocked and unwilling. He had never thought that he would lose to such a girl whom he had always looked down upon, which dealt a great blow to his self-esteem. Thinking of his current situation, he felt even more anxious and determined to take action to change the status quo.
So, before Zhai Lin returned home, Zhai Xingchen resolutely knelt at the door of his house and asked Zhai's father to agree to remarry Han Xin. He knew that only by marrying into the Han family could he regain his position in the family and regain his lost dignity.
However, Zhai Lin was not convinced by Zhai Xingchen's request. He knew that the engagement was originally cancelled by his eldest son, Zhai Yijing, and in his opinion, Zhai Xingchen had lost the value of using the Han family because he failed to get first place in the training camp. Therefore, he rejected Zhai Xingchen's request without hesitation, thinking that his brain was broken.
Zhai Xingchen did not give up. He insisted that he and Han Xin had a deep relationship and kept saying that he felt that the other person loved him the most in the world. His persistence and perseverance reminded Zhai Lin of the time when he was pursuing his deceased wife.
Back then, I was supposed to carry the family's expectations and conclude a marriage agreement with the Tang family. However, my heart had already been captured by Shen Xi, and that deep affection made me unable to consider anything else. So, I resolutely knelt in front of my father and resolutely asked to marry Shen Xi.
Faced with his insistence, his father was furious. He scolded him harshly: "What are you thinking about? How can marriage be a joke? The Shen family is not even in the top 100. What good will it bring to our Zhai family if you marry her? You are making a joke of the future of our family!"
However, I was unmoved at that time. I looked up at my father with a determined light in my eyes. I took a deep breath and said in a deep voice: "Father, I know what I am doing. Although Shen Xi is from an ordinary family, she is smart, kind, gentle and virtuous. She is the most perfect woman in my heart. I believe that as long as we truly love each other, we will be able to create a beautiful future together. As for the interests of the family, I will strive for it with my own efforts and will never let you down."
My father finally agreed, and I and Shen Xi had a happy married life, but...
Zhai Lin came back to his senses and saw Zhai Xingchen kneeling down, and he felt guilty. However, he did not respond directly to Zhai Xingchen's request, but chose to avoid it, went back to the bedroom, and told Fang Rong not to enter.
After learning about what happened at home, Zhai Yijing also chose to temporarily avoid this troubled home. He went to live in one of the villas under his own name and seemed to have lost interest in the family's affairs.
The next day, Zhai Lin woke up and saw Zhai Xingchen still kneeling on the ground, and the balance in his heart tilted even more. After some thought, he finally chose to agree to Zhai Xingchen's request. Perhaps in his view, this was a way to make up for his past and also an expectation for Zhai Xingchen's future.
The day after Zhai Xingchen and Han Xin renegotiated their engagement, Zhai Lin unexpectedly decided to send Zhai Yicheng abroad. This news was like a thunderclap, exploding in Zhai Xingchen's heart. He was shocked, but also felt an indescribable joy. However, for Zhai Yijing, he could see the deep meaning behind Zhai Lin's move.
Looking back on the past, Zhai Yijing once mistakenly believed that his father's deep affection for Fangrong was out of true love, which was why he had that entangled past with her during his mother's pregnancy. However, as time passed, he gradually uncovered the truth of this past. It turned out that the reason why Fangrong stayed with Zhai's father was simply because she had a bit of her mother's charm between her eyebrows. And the scene that his mother saw back then was just Zhai's father trying to help Fangrong get rid of the entanglement of the scumbag, but he didn't expect that this intimate move would lead to his mother's misunderstanding. This misunderstanding, like a heavy stone, pressed on his father's heart and became his lifelong pain.
After Shen Xi passed away, his father fell into deep self-blame and pain. He drank every day, trying to numb his soul with alcohol. However, fate played a cruel joke on him again. After being drunk, he accidentally got a woman pregnant, and then Zhai Yicheng was born. His father had a complicated mood for this unexpected son, with both guilt and helplessness.
After Zhai Yijing took over the Zhai family, he began to investigate the true situation of Fang Rong and Zhai Yicheng. He found that Fang Rong did not have any actual shares in the Zhai family, and Zhai Yicheng was not her biological son. This discovery made Zhai Yijing's attitude towards Fang Rong change subtly, and he no longer regarded her as an enemy to be targeted. However, he could not let go of the pain of his mother's death, so he was still unwilling to let Fang Rong appear in his sight.
And Zhai Lin's decision to send Zhai Yicheng away might have been to cut off this tangled past and allow the Zhai family to start over.
He thought of Lu Qingxi again, this special and untouchable existence in Zhai Yijing's heart. Every time he thought of her, his heart would warm up, but he always tried to restrain this emotion.
