Xiaoya sent a message to Lu Xiaobei.

Xiaoya: Captain, I'm out again.

In less than three seconds, her phone screen lit up again.

Lu Xiaobei: Didn't you say to wait?

Lu Xiaobei: You haven't even graduated from college yet, can you discuss it with me before doing something?

Xiaoya: It was an accident.

Xiaoya wanted to tell Lu Xiaobei not to attack her, but she knew she was wrong, so she still wanted to be scolded, and told Lu Xiaobei about her meeting with Joanna today, and emphasized that her mother knew In fact, she didn't change her reaction.

It took a long time before Lu Xiaobei's news came back.

Lu Xiaobei: This is not necessarily a bad thing.I'm going back to Nancheng tonight, so don't worry too much.

Xiaoya: But today is only Thursday, and you have to go to work tomorrow.

Lu Xiaobei: I have to ask for another day off.And you, did I ask you to meet your pen pal privately? !I'll deal with you when I come back!

Xiaoya: ...

On Friday morning, Xiaoya's mother made breakfast as usual, and asked Xiaoya to get up from bed, "This place is far away from your school, and your father will send you off later."

Xiaoya: "OK"

Xiaoya felt uneasy. After half a day of class on Friday, she went back to the house where she and Lu Xiaobei lived together.The two discussed it for a long time, but they didn't have a particularly good idea. Lu Xiaobei just said: "Don't be afraid. If your family knows, just call me, and I will face it with you."

Xiaoya returned home shortly after class.However, until Lu Xiaobei left Nancheng on Sunday afternoon, Xiaoya's mother did not make any trouble, and the family was calm, as usual.

The wait before the death sentence is sometimes more tormenting than the death penalty.

It wasn't until Lu Xiaobei was so busy on the high-speed rail that he kept calling on the weekend for four consecutive weeks, but still insisted on going back to Nancheng, that Xiaoya finally couldn't hold her breath anymore and tested her mother.

When Xiaoya came home on Friday night, she told her family, "I have a roommate who signed up for an English class and asked me if I would like to join. I kind of want to go, whether it's just learning English or IELTS in the future, it will be useful."

At the dinner table, Xiaoya's father asked, "Do you want to study abroad?"

Xiaoya: "I'm thinking about it. It's only a year or two to go abroad for postgraduate study. It's a good time to go out and see the world. Some universities in Europe have low tuition fees, and you can apply for scholarships."

Xiaoya's father: "That's right. Even if you can't apply for a scholarship, our family can afford it. At that time, you can visit all the big and small countries in Europe. You are old enough to decide for yourself."

Xiaoya has long been speechless about her father's rough nerves, she turned her eyes to her mother, this is the biggest mountain in their family.Her mother did have something to say to her.

Xiaoya's mother: "Going to study abroad, do you plan to go alone?"

Here we come, Xiaoya said to herself.

Xiaoya: "I'm still not sure whether to go or which school to go to. However, I heard from my senior sister that most universities abroad have Chinese students studying abroad. If you go there, it's best if you have someone you already know. Just make new friends."

Xiaoya's mother: "Then you are abroad alone, can you take care of yourself?"

Xiaoya pretended not to care and said, "I lived on campus in high school and university, and I feel that my autonomy is quite strong."

Xiaoya's mother: "Can this be the same?!"

Xiaoya's father persuaded her from the side, "Don't say that the wind is the rain. She hasn't left yet. But you can start to practice her cooking skills. For such a big girl, you usually don't even wash the dishes. I can't bear her to wash it."

Xiaoya's mother ignored him, but said to Xiaoya: "Tonight, the two of us have a good chat."

Chapter 53

After dinner, Xiaoya's father went to wash the dishes, and Xiaoya's mother entered Xiaoya's room first.

When Xiaoya entered the room, she whispered: "Mom."

Xiaoya's mother looked up at her and asked, "The matter of going to study abroad, did you just talk about it on a whim, or did you think about it long ago?"

Xiaoya knew that she couldn't hide it from her mother, and she didn't want to hide it, "In fact, I had such an idea when I was a freshman, so I took the exam again at level 6 to improve my score, and I also wanted to exercise myself."

Xiaoya's mother: "Why didn't you tell the family?"

Xiaoya: "I haven't decided yet, I just thought about it this way. I also bought materials for the postgraduate entrance examination recently. If our school or a university in Shanghai can pass the postgraduate entrance examination, it would be good."

Xiaoya's mother stood up from her seat, took two steps forward, stared into Xiaoya's eyes, and asked her: "You want to go out, but don't you want to come back?"

Xiaoya was surprised: "Mom, why do you think so?"

Xiaoya's mother shook her head, no longer looked directly at Xiaoya, but looked out of the window, "Because I don't agree with you being with girls, so you don't want to come back..."

Xiaoya quickly explained: "No...No, Mom, this is my home. I never thought of not coming back...I just want to become better. In the future, whether I am with or without a company, I can I am living a good life. I want you to rest assured that I can survive in this society without getting married and having children."

Xiaoya's mother had tears in her eyes, "Can't you change it? Can't you take an easier path like other girls and live a simpler life?"

Xiaoya: "I'm sorry, Mom, this is innate. I can't change it." Xiaoya took two steps forward and hugged her mother, "Mom, I love you, but it's my nature to like girls... only with Only when the people I like are with me can I be happy and happy."

Xiaoya's mother hugged her and nodded, "I will try to accept..."

Before she finished speaking, Xiaoya took a step back and looked at her mother in surprise, "Mom, are you serious?"

Xiaoya's mother: "Of course it's true. I also checked a lot of information, and forcing you is not only harming you, but also harming others. I have done everything I can. Is it really possible to find another place to lock you in?" "

Xiaoya: "Mom, thank you."

Xiaoya's mother was a little sad at first, but she suddenly became serious again, "But Yu Xiaoya, listen carefully, even if you are gay, I will not allow you to change girlfriends a week and go out with different people every day. Apart from sexual orientation, I won't allow you to do anything else out of line."

Xiaoya said nicely, "I won't."

Xiaoya's mother: "That time at the hotel entrance, did you really think I didn't see it? In the past, the family didn't care about you, you could hide it, but now, as long as you have a girlfriend, you have to take it home , I'll take a look!"

Xiaoya: "Mom! The conscience of heaven and earth! I really have nothing to do with that girl!"

Xiaoya's mother said angrily: "It's nothing, you are just chattering like that at the hotel entrance?! Then what is it really, what are you planning to do?!"

Xiaoya looked at the little bed in her room.

Five years ago, also here, she and Lu Xiaobei...

Xiaoya's mother looked at Xiaoya looking at the bed in the room, and gradually became dazed, as if a flash of inspiration flashed in her heart.Xiaoya's mother remained calm, "It's a pity. If you knew that you still had to take these two paths, you shouldn't be so resolute in opposing you and her. After all, it was your first love. At that time, you hated me very much, right? ?"

Xiaoya shook her head and said, "No. I was only in high school at that time, and no matter who fell in love, parents and teachers mostly broke up."

These years, they have been avoiding this topic, and Xiaoya's mother discovered that Xiaoya was abnormal, and she did not express any sadness or regret at all.

Xiaoya's mother: "Did you break up later? What's the girl's name?"

Xiaoya: ...

Xiaoya had no idea that her mother might let go tonight.Although Lu Xiaobei had speculated about this before, he didn't dare to hold out too much hope, and the two of them didn't discuss what to do in this situation.
