Chapter 44 Fireworks
He Qiong was in her forties, with a solemn face and no makeup. She was only dressed like a teacher, which lowered her appearance.

In fact, she is a very charming woman, but her cold temperament makes students afraid to look her in the eye.

Of course, this was intentional.

In Xu Mingyuan’s impression, she was a very kind old lady who always smiled and liked to chat about parents in private and say caring words.

Although she is in charge of teacher assessments, academic affairs and other work, if she sees mischievous students causing trouble, they will at least get a slap in the face.

Nowadays, teachers really beat people, so Xu Mingyuan naturally didn’t dare to offend her.

When the No. 3 Middle School was looking for outstanding alumni to sponsor the new campus, Gao Dexiang was already semi-retired and had long stopped teaching classes. He became an idle teacher who did not teach a single physical education class a week.

Because Xu Mingyuan and Tao Shuxin are old classmates, He Qiong was the one who was responsible for the handover.

After getting the sponsorship, He Qiong had a private conversation with Xu Mingyuan, hoping to stay away from her girl.

At that time, Xu Mingyuan was shocked. You are too quick to kill the donkey after it has served its purpose.

But he knew what kind of person he was, and he didn’t want to delay Tao Shuxin, so he reduced contact with her.

By the time Tao Shuxin was in her early thirties, He Qiong probably had no other options, so she went to talk to Xu Mingyuan, hoping that he could introduce her to someone.

Xu Mingyuan did not refuse. Since they were old classmates, he introduced them to each other several times.

Although Tao Shuxin is beautiful, it is difficult for her to find someone who meets Xu Mingyuan’s requirements after she turns 30.

The second-generation rich people of the same age as Xu Mingyuan have similar views. They all go to have fun with twenty-year-old girls. Why would they go to a teacher in her thirties to make themselves suffer?

And I heard that he was actually the dean of studies. I didn’t even want to look at his photo. I was scared to death.

Xu Mingyuan also introduced some outstanding employees in the company, but Tao Shuxin didn’t like them.

Since her words and actions hinted that they were old classmates, even if Xu Mingyuan’s employees were interested in her, they would not spend energy pursuing her.

During the subsequent struggle, He Qiong became extremely anxious as she watched her daughter grow older day by day.

She even found Xu Mingyuan in private and told him that it was okay for them not to get married, but he had to find a way to give birth to a child for Tao Shuxin.

Damn it?

Xu Mingyuan was stunned.

In fact, after knowing Tao Shuxin for so many years, there was basically no heart-beating feeling between the two of us at that time.

The reason why we keep maintaining friendships is probably to give ourselves some security and an explanation for our life.

Otherwise, Xu Mingyuan would not have said, “I am not married and you are not married, so why don’t we just make do with each other.”

However, Xu Mingyuan still backed off when the time came and chose to take a few steps back to see the situation.

It is possible that after a few years both of them will reach a point where they can no longer delay, and the final result will most likely be this.

But this time is different.

If Xu Mingyuan dared to say to He Qiong now: Why don’t I give your daughter the entire child for you to play with?
She absolutely did not think that these were words she could say in person, but instead wanted to jump up and chop Xu Mingyuan to pieces on the spot.

Xu Mingyuan had no idea what He Qiong was staring at, nor did he know what Tao Shuxin said to his mother, so he could only pretend that he didn’t see anything.

After a few little girls went out, the chattering sound was stopped as soon as it was heard.

It’s really pleasant to have the opportunity to take a break from the busy life of senior year.

Have you ever given Tao Shuxin a birthday present?
Xu Mingyuan thought about it for a long time and had a vague impression, but he had forgotten what he had given.

It’s a pity that slowing down the learning progress is no big deal. It’s not easy to find a classmate who is pretty, pleasing to the eye and can take the teasing.

However, Xu Mingyuan was not worried. It was the same in the past. Tao Shuxin got angry many times, but they also became good friends for many years. Everything was destined.

Maintain or not maintain, the road is always the same.

Quite an asshole indeed.

The teacher taught for more than twenty minutes, and the rest of the time was still spent on doing papers, which seemed to never be finished.

Without help, Xu Mingyuan had to circle the questions he didn’t know how to answer and then ask his classmates after class, which returned to his previous state.

Alas, it’s really hard to bear.

“Brother Yuan, let’s go smoke together.”

“Remove the hair, no.”

Xu Mingyuan declined.

He has never smoked in school. The attitude of No. 3 Middle School towards students smoking is the same as fighting. If caught, the student will be given a serious warning, and the second time will result in expulsion.

Rules are rules. Xu Mingyuan is a person who likes to find loopholes, but he generally abides by the written regulations.

Sun Hongwei and his friends were not bold enough to ignore the school rules. They just sneaked outside the school after school to smoke a few puffs. They were not addicted to it and just wanted to show off.

“Why don’t you go with your buddies today? We wanted to stay with you all night.”

“Let’s talk about it next time. I’m leaving now.”

Xu Mingyuan waved his hand, and when he reached the intersection, he hailed a taxi. “Master, do you want to go to the farmers’ market?”

“Let’s go, get in the car.”

He opened the door, sat down, and then quickly left the city.

“Hello, Tang Lin?”

“Hey, how come you have time to call me?”

“Have you guys finished the show?”

“We have classes tomorrow, so we’re all going home. You just remembered to come now? What a bad coincidence.”

“Okay, got it. Where is Tao Shuxin’s home address? Tell me.”

“Huh? Why are you asking this? No way! What time is it now? You want to go find her now? I’ll be surprised if Teacher He doesn’t skin you alive!”

Tang Lin’s surprised voice came from the other end of the receiver.

“Why do you have so much to say? Hurry up and tell me. I’ll buy you two packs of AD calcium milk tomorrow.”

“Is this your attitude when you ask for help?”

“Hurry up, I still need to go home to sleep.” Xu Mingyuan urged.

“Okay then, Kanghua Garden Building 7, Room 501, remember it?”

“Remember, which way does her room face?”

“How would I know? Anyway, it’s behind the street…”

Just as Tang Lin finished answering, she heard a busy tone.

Damn, this guy is so ungrateful!
Tao Shuxin sat at the desk, opening the gift box she had brought back.

Most of the gifts from the elders were pocket money, and only my older brothers and sisters gave me gifts, which were small things like dolls.

I had a pretty good time today. I ate cake and shared cake with my good friends.

But I wasn’t as happy as I had imagined. I felt like something was missing. I glanced at the crystal ball on the desk, picked it up and shook it.

Suddenly snowflakes began to fall.

It was quite appropriate. Tao Shuxin nodded with satisfaction and lay back on the bed.

I don’t have to read today, so I can finally go to bed early.

Tao Shuxin was trying to fall asleep, but she couldn’t fall asleep no matter how hard she tried. She had to open the curtains and look at the night sky outside the window, her mind flying away into the distance.

“Crack, bang! Crack, crackle…”

The sudden sound of fireworks and firecrackers scared Tao Shuxin, who was in a daze, and he jumped out of bed.

Listening to this sound, it is not far away from you.

I don’t know which wicked person set off fireworks so late at night!

Tao Shuxin was very angry. Looking downstairs, he saw a row of fireworks that had been lit, some flying into the sky, and some scattering silver flowers.

With the brightness of the fireworks, Tao Shuxin saw a line of words written on the snow in the flower bed by someone stepping on it.

Life is good!

Tao Shuxin was stunned for a moment, ignoring the shrill sound of firecrackers, he opened the window and stuck his head out, only to see a figure in a black down jacket running away.

She recognized the man at a glance by the way he walked, without even looking at the clothes.

Tao Shuxin’s face kept changing, her thoughts kept twisting, but in the end she smiled.

“Xu Mingyuan! Hey! Wait a minute!”

I know you won’t forget it!

Xu Mingyuan couldn’t hear the sound, so Tao Shuxin had to put on her coat and rushed out of the room without even bothering to put on her shoes.

At this time, Xu Mingyuan had already left, leaving Tao Shuxin alone standing under the fireworks and looking at the sky.

This may be the most beautiful fireworks I have ever seen in my life.

Fireworks flashed in her eyes and kept rising up to the sky and exploding. Tao Shuxin knew that this fireworks display was a gift that belonged to her alone.

After a long time, the fireworks dissipated, but Tao Shuxin was still in a daze.

“Whose unlucky kid is setting off fireworks in the middle of the night? Can’t we sleep? Do you have any sense of public morality? Where are the parents? Do they care? Ah?”

A shout of curse woke Tao Shuxin up.

No wonder this bastard ran away without saying a word! It turns out he was waiting for me here!
Tao Shuxin blushed and didn’t dare to stay downstairs any longer. She picked up a piece of red paper scattered on the ground by the fireworks, put it in her pocket, and ran home quickly with her back hunched.

Every time he gets angry with himself when he is happiest!
Tao Shuxin frowned, was sulking for a second, then burst out laughing with a crescent shape.
