Xue Ling quickly took photos of each contract and then sent them to lawyer He Miaomiao.
"Okay, let's all eat."
Cheng Tianyuan glared at his younger son and said in a deep voice: "In the next two months, study hard for me. Take a break when it's time, go to class when it's time, and you're not allowed to touch comics!"
Cheng Huanchong's eyes were red and he hesitated: "But I...have signed a contract, I can't break the contract!"
"This contract doesn't count at all!"
Cheng Tianyuan said solemnly: "If you hadn't stolen the ID card and pretended to be my signature, this contract could have been signed! How did you agree to me in the first place?
Study well, and if you want to learn comics without affecting your studies, you can go.
After you pass the high school entrance examination, you can study whatever you want! Now you can decide what is more important! If you fail in the high school entrance examination this time, you will never touch a paintbrush!"
ah?
!! After listening to this, tears welled up in Cheng Huanchong’s eyes.
"Dad... that's my dream! I just want to write a book... I'm not committing adultery or doing anything bad. Are you like this?
!Besides, my mother agreed with me to learn comics at the beginning.”
Cheng Tianyuan had a dark face and said coldly: "Your mother agreed at the beginning, but I didn't agree at the beginning. Have you forgotten!?
The prerequisite for your mother to agree to your study is that you must do a good job in your study!"
"My academic performance will not be bad at all!"
Cheng Huanchong suddenly loudly said: "I can pass the No. 2 Middle School exam easily!"
Cheng Tianyuan asked loudly: "Since you can easily get into the second middle school, why don't you strive for the first middle school?
!The teacher said you could go to No. 2 Middle School, why didn’t you fight for it?
!Why publish a book at this time?
!Is your life just such an opportunity?
!You will never publish a book again?
!How much money can you make from publishing a book?
Do you know how big the difference is between No. 1 Middle School and No. 2 Middle School?
!The worst student in No. 1 Middle School is the best in No. 2 Middle School! Do you think there is any difference between them?
!Is there any gap?
!Do you know that once you miss some opportunities, it will last a lifetime! Now that you have the opportunity to work hard and fight for it, why don’t you fight for it?
!Do you know that if you miss the opportunity, you will regret it for the rest of your life!"
Cheng Huanchong was stunned and did not dare to speak again.
Cheng Tianyuan threw away his chopsticks, turned around and left the dining room angrily.
Everyone was stunned and had different expressions on their faces.
Xiao Huzi came a little late. As soon as he entered the door, he saw Cheng Tianyuan leaving with a dark face. He couldn't help but say hello, but found that the other party refused to pay attention to him. He scratched his head suspiciously, and when he walked into the dining room, he found that everyone had ugly faces.
"Um...what's wrong?"
No one paid any attention to him.
Little Huzi was surprised to find that Cheng Huanchong was crying, and couldn't help but "Ouch!"
One sound.
"San'er, why are you crying?
!What's wrong with you?
Did you make Uncle Yuan angry?
Oh my God! Man, stop crying, stop crying!"
Cheng Huanchong felt a little embarrassed, so he stood up and wanted to run away - but Xiao Huzi held him back.
"Xiao Chong!"
Xue Ling stopped him, with firm eyes: "You shouldn't make your dad angry.
He...he has always regarded his studies as very important. You obviously can strive for it, but you don't strive for it. How can you not make him angry!"
Cheng Huanchong choked up: "Mom! I just don't want to give up this opportunity! If I miss this opportunity, I may not have it in the future..." "Impossible."
Xue Ling raised his eyebrows: "Is this the only publishing house in the world?
Is this how an editor takes a fancy to your talent?
As long as it is gold, it will shine wherever it goes.
Your dad is right, why can't you tell which one is more important?
If you miss the high school entrance examination at this time, you will definitely lose more opportunities! But if you take your manuscript to another publishing house and another editorial department, as long as your manuscript is good enough, you are not afraid of not having a chance to publish it.
Do you think drawing comics can guarantee you a worry-free life?
is it possible?
There will always be a day when people's talents wither and dry up. Only by constantly learning and ensuring a better environment can you have the time and energy to pursue your dreams."
"Yeah."
Xiao Huzi nodded hastily: "Auntie is right!"
Cheng Huanchong's eyes were red and he didn't speak.
Xue Ling sighed: "Your dad...he used to love studying and study hard, but because his family was too poor, he could only put away the college admission notice and go to the city to work with his luggage.
His admission notice was contained in that very old Xinhua Dictionary. I read it several times, but he never dared to open it.
Although he didn't say anything, I knew...that was his biggest regret in this life."
At this point, Liu Ying began to sob softly.
"At that time...your grandfather was ill and the family already owed a lot of money. No one was willing to lend money to your dad to study...your dad didn't say anything and went to the supply and marketing cooperative in the city to make money.
Your grandfather kept crying secretly, and he even advised your grandfather that he was not good at studying, so it was better not to study.
But I know that he really loves reading."
Everyone sighed one after another, and the atmosphere in the dining room was solemn and sentimental.
Xue Ling whispered: "Your dad doesn't want you to be like him and live with regrets for the rest of your life... so he always attaches great importance to your studies.
We agree that you have your own hobbies after school, but it does not mean that you can give up your studies.
Let me tell you the truth, if your second brother is not qualified to be recommended to Teito University, your father will never allow him to become a professional athlete.
If you neglect your studies and only love comics, you may have regrets in the future.
Dreams can be pursued throughout your life, but if you miss your studies sometimes, it will last a lifetime.
Your dad doesn’t want you to regret it in the future, but it’s too late to regret it, do you understand?”
Cheng Huanchong lowered his head and said "hmm" in a low voice.
Father Xue on the side held his hand and said warmly: "Be good, listen to your parents.
That cartoon of yours, don’t be in a hurry now.
Later, your mother will discuss with the publishing house and ask them to extend that time. There are still two months left in the summer vacation! When you pass the high school entrance examination, no one will care about you during the summer vacation. You can draw as much as you want."
"right."
Xue Ling said: "Take care of your studies first and don't make your parents angry.
Later, I will help you negotiate with the publisher and talk to the editor who accepted the manuscript.
We can postpone the time for a few months. They are all people who have experienced the high school entrance examination. They should know how important the impact of a major examination is on life.
What can be discussed is easy to discuss with each other.
If they dare to cheat, even if it is a breach of contract, Mom can help you get the manuscript back and help you pay the liquidated damages.
Mom knows better publishing houses and better editors. As long as your manuscript is good enough, you don’t have to worry about not having a chance in the future.
Now remember the first thing - studies come first."
Cheng Huanchong finally smiled and clenched his fists excitedly.
"handsome!"
Xiao Huzi patted his arm and said with a smile: "Look! Everyone is protecting you! I didn't say you can't do it in the future. There are many opportunities! I'm so jealous of you!"
Cheng Huanchong swallowed secretly and whispered: "...Thank you, Mom."
Xue Ling showed a smile and said, "Let's all sit down and eat.
After you've eaten enough, send some to your dad and apologize to him sincerely.
