Because of Shiraishi Rika, Xia Zhi couldn't sleep a little. Although she used her mobile phone to ask where the bedding and other things were placed, she lay them all flat on the ground and Xia Zhi didn't feel sleepy. She was a little restless.
After making up my mind, I decided to go outside for a walk after sitting in the room for a while. Just outside the room was a courtyard, where the five people took photos together.
While changing his shoes, Xia Zhi heard slight footsteps approaching. Could it be coming again? Xia Zhi looked at the door in front of him in confusion, and sure enough, it confirmed Xia Zhi's idea after a few seconds.
But this time it was Xia Meng who came, and she still held her mobile phone in her hand, and the screen of her mobile phone was also on.
"Where are you going?" Xia Meng looked at Xia Zhi who was sitting in front of the door changing shoes.
"Think of the wind blowing outside and taking a look at the scenery. After all, I'm leaving tomorrow morning." Xia Zhi looked at her doubtfully: "You are the one Mengmeng, why are you here? Shouldn't you be resting?"
"It's only what time, how can I sleep." Xia Meng handed the phone to Xia Zhi: "Mom is looking for you."
Xia Zhi took the phone and took a look. It looked like her mother was on the phone. It seemed like it was a video call: "Hello? Mom."
"How have you been during this time? Although it's spring now, it seems to be quite cold. You don't have a cold, right?"
"No, don't worry, it's starting to get warm now." Xia Zhi replied, and then looked at Xia Meng: "Come in and sit down first."
"I heard from Mengmeng that you seem to be doing well this time. Are you among the top in your class?"
As soon as he mentioned this, Xia Zhike started to get drunk: "Those are not the top few in our class. I am already in the top twenty in our grade."
"Okay. It seems that you are still working hard there." Mom's voice sounded very happy. Parents are so simple sometimes. Although they are also a little one-sided, good grades mean a lot to them.
Something happened.
"Mengmeng helped me a lot." In this matter, Xia Meng must have his life.
"I know, I know...but now I have something I want to discuss with you." Mom's expression suddenly became serious, and Xia Zhi instinctively felt that something was not good: "What's wrong?"
"It's still the same situation I mentioned before. I wasn't going to tell you anymore, but there are suddenly a lot of things to do. Your dad and I may become very busy in the next time...you understand me.
What do you mean?"
"Um."
"I think you don't understand. Mengmeng, please explain it to him in detail."
Xia Zhi looked at Xia Meng, and Xia Meng said expressionlessly: "Basically, my parents' work content suddenly became very, very large, and it couldn't be solved in a short time. The work is linked one after another.
, if you choose to participate from the beginning, it will be very difficult to withdraw in the mid-term, because parents are the most familiar with their work, and it is impossible for both partners to let them withdraw at this time, and it is necessary to find a replacement.
The cost is too high, so they may have to keep busy until it's all over."
"That's basically it." Mom's voice came over again: "But your dad and I should have changes in our positions afterwards. Your dad and I discussed it and asked Mengmeng again. I think we should stick to it.
It’s better to come down.”
"Yeah, work is also very important." Xia Zhi nodded. Since he had asked Mengmeng, there shouldn't be any problem with their choice.
"But this creates a problem... Your dad and I may not have much free time for a long time in the next, and we may even have less time to go home. This matter has already affected various provinces and cities across the country.
It’s the same type of unit. Your dad and I may have to travel to more places than we have in our entire lives combined, and we may not have time to stay at home to take care of your sister.” Mom sighed in front of the screen: “We don’t have many relatives in our family.
It’s suitable for taking care of Mengmeng, and Mengmeng probably won’t go there even if she lives alone.”
Xia Meng nodded on the spot.
"But your dad and I can't take Mengmeng with us on a business trip. It would be too tiring, and your dad and I don't worry about leaving Mengmeng alone at home. It just so happens that you have been living there alone for so long, so you deserve it
I have gained experience, so..." Mom paused: "I want to ask you if you are willing to come back and take care of your sister."
"I..." Xia Zhi was a little at a loss. Suddenly he saw Xia Meng standing in front of him and shook his head. Of course Xia Zhi understood what Xia Meng meant, but Xia Zhi hesitated.
Like his parents, if Xia Meng is left to live alone, even if she is Xia Meng, Xia Zhi will still not be able to let go.
"No need." Probably because Xia Zhi hesitated, Xia Meng directly took over the topic: "He is living a pretty good life here, and his grades are relatively stable. If he continues, he should be able to get into a good university. Now.
If he goes back to study at home, he may not be able to adapt. It would be too troublesome to spend time correcting it, and there would be no time to take care of me. In fact, it is the same."
Mom sighed: "If I had known better, I wouldn't have taken this job."
I'll be in trouble if you don't take it. Xia Meng rolled her eyes quietly.
"But..." Xia Zhi looked at Xia Meng with a worried look. Xia Meng rolled her eyes at Xia Zhi for the second time: "Are you stupid?"
???
Xia Zhi still didn't react, so Xia Meng took the phone away from Xia Zhi's hand.
"I'm not going back." Xia Meng said, "I can just live here. I've brought everything I need anyway, so don't worry about me."
?????
"Hmm? It seems like a good idea. What do you think, Xia Zhi?"
Due to emotions and reasons, Xia Zhi could not have the second answer: "Of course, no problem."
"But Mengmeng, you have to come back here and register at the university."
"I just need to give them a call. I can just build something and show it to them and tell them I'm doing research here. There should be no problem. Even if there is, it's just a flight back and forth, a day or two.
That's it. Anyway, if you want to go, there is a direct flight, which is very convenient. I can also supervise his studies here and prevent him from engaging in puppy love here, so you can rest assured."
The corners of Xia Zhi's eyes twitched. Her younger sister had learned bad things. She would lie to her parents.
"Xia Zhi, do you think this is okay?" Xia Zhi's mother's voice, even after the change of electronic equipment, could still tell that she was completely satisfied with the plan. Xia Zhi really didn't think of any other way.
Although he always felt as if he had been thoroughly arranged, Xia Zhi still nodded: "No problem, leave it to me."
