After returning home, Mingyao applied cold compresses to her feet as instructed by the doctor.
The school will be on winter vacation tomorrow, and it's just the right time for her foot injury.
Mingyao lay on the sofa and looked around. She felt that the home was eerily quiet. She took out the remote control and turned on the TV and clicked on a channel at random.
A family ethics drama started playing on the TV. It was noisy and the room suddenly became lively.
Ever since Chen Ke's accident, she was used to turning on the TV when she was alone at home, otherwise there would be no people in the room at all.
Mingyao watched it for a while and found that the plot of this TV series was very fast-paced.
The content is roughly about the heroine who is a housewife. One day, a pregnant mistress came to her door and discovered that her husband had been cheating on her for many years. So the heroine divorced her husband and started her own business. In the end, she successfully counterattacked and became a female boss. At the peak of life, the story of slapping a scumbag and a mistress in the face.
The story is cool and exciting.
But it doesn’t seem to have much reference for me.
Her husband also cheated on him, but he was lying unconscious on the bed and she couldn't get divorced even if she wanted to.
Although she is not a housewife, she is just an ordinary middle school teacher, and she has no business acumen. There is no problem in supporting herself. It is impossible to become rich and powerful and counterattack in life.
well.
Life is not a TV series, life is much more difficult than a TV series.
Mingyao watched it with mixed emotions. She wanted to find a light-hearted and humorous comedy movie to relax so that she could go to bed after watching it.
Switch to the movie list, press the remote control and keep scrolling, trying to choose something good.
Hmm, it’s so hard to choose... How about watching Pride and Prejudice again, which I have watched before? Or "Thumping Heartbeat"?
Suddenly, her gaze froze as she looked at the TV screen.
It was fixed on a red two-person poster.
[Have you never seen "In the Mood for Love"? The story is about the male and female protagonists hooking up together. After the male and female protagonists find out, they start to interact with each other, and finally fall in love with each other uncontrollably...】
Suddenly, the man on the movie poster seemed to turn into Shen Yu's face...
Mingyao trembled and subconsciously turned off the TV.
What are you thinking about?...
It’s all Guan Qing’s fault!
Her heart was as restless as grass growing, and she rolled around on the sofa because of itching. When she turned her eyes, she saw the wedding photo of her and Chen Ke on the background wall.
The woman was wearing a strapless white wedding dress, holding flowers in her hands, looking sideways at the man. Both of them were smiling, looking affectionate.
Mingyao still remembers the day when the wedding photos were taken. She and Chen Ke didn't usually take photos, so their poses were very stiff.
The photographer asked the two people to stand face to face. As long as the two people looked at each other, they would laugh...
I really felt happy at that time, so I decided to marry him.
However, feelings can change.
Mingyao felt her heart become colder little by little.
She sat on the sofa silently for a while, then brushed her teeth, washed her face, and went to bed.
I didn’t know what I was dreaming about, and I couldn’t sleep well all night.
Mingyao woke up in the morning and looked at her watch to find that it was already past nine o'clock. She was startled and quickly got up from the bed. Then she realized that she didn't have to go to class today. She breathed a sigh of relief and felt as happy as picking up money.
As soon as he fell down, he lay on the bed and fell asleep again. He vaguely heard the phone ringing, thinking it was an alarm clock, so he closed his eyes and clicked a few random times on the phone screen.
Suddenly, a man's chuckle was heard.
Mingyao opened her eyes in confusion and met the man's gaze on the screen. The man was in a suit and tie. In the background was a whole row of bookshelves, which seemed to be in an office.
And he, wearing pajamas and with messy hair, appeared in the lower right corner of the screen.
Is this...a video call?
Mingyao suddenly pressed the screen into the quilt, her face turned red instantly, and her heartbeat was about to jump out of her throat.
what happened? !
A man's voice came from the phone, polite and apologetic. The voice was a little distorted because he was buried in the quilt.
"...Sorry, Mingyao, I originally wanted to click on the voice call, but I accidentally clicked on the wrong one..."
Of course Mingyao is not blaming him, she is just annoyed about her carelessness. Why do she always make a fool of herself in front of him?
She gently opened the phone a crack, then pressed the front camera with one finger before daring to pick it up.
Only a handsome face was shown on the screen. The man was closer than before, and his facial features became more three-dimensional and distinct.
"W-what's wrong with you?"
It was dark on the phone, and all I could hear was the woman's sulking voice.
Shen Yu was still recalling the sleepy and lazy face of the woman, her eyes half-opened, her face a little naive, her home clothes a little loose, and a patch of white flowers exposed on her chest...
It's a pity that I can't see it with my own eyes.
"Ahem, that's right. Mingyao, you said before that you were a teacher at the Experimental Middle School? I have a child from a relative, and this year he..."
The man spoke warmly of the reason for calling her. Mingyao's heartbeat slowly calmed down, but her fingers were still pressed against the camera.
So this is ah.
Although her experimental middle school is not a top school, it has been shortlisted for the top 100 middle schools in the country. The teaching quality is good and it has a history of several decades. Therefore, the number of admissions every year is very limited.
Mingyao knew that there were teachers in the school who could bring in students through their positions. Although she has never operated it, she can ask Guan Qing, she should know.
Shen Yu has helped him so many times, but he has gotten nothing in return. Now that he finally has the chance, Mingyao really hopes to help him and return the favor.
"What's going on with that child? Will he enroll in school this year? What are his grades?"
Mingyao sorted out her thoughts. If the students' grades were too poor... it wouldn't be easy to handle.
"Mingyao, can we meet and talk? This is not convenient. We can find a place close to your home..." The man on the screen sounded very sincere.
Mingyao sat beside the bed. There was a lamp and a photo frame on the bedside table beside the bed.
The photos are of Mingyao and Chen Ke's life in college. At that time, they were high-spirited and high-spirited.
"No need, just send me a message."
Mingyao refused.
She felt...it was really not good for them to stop meeting each other.
"..." The man on the other end of the phone was silent, his mouth straightened.
Mingyao moved his eyes away.
After a while, the man spoke again, "Mingyao, is your school on winter vacation?"
"Yes..." Mingyao was afraid that he would ask to meet again, so she immediately added, "But I also have other work to do."
This is not a lie. Many people envy teachers for having winter and summer vacations, but teachers are also assigned a lot of tasks during the holidays.
Mingyao was afraid that he wouldn't believe it, so she quickly explained one by one, "During the winter vacation, there are still meetings, teacher training, writing lesson plans, issuing school opening papers, home visits, writing reports..."
"Home visit?" The man interrupted her with a frown.
"Mingyao, are you going out for a home visit?"
