Zhutian: I have been happy to be a father since I was a child.

"...Okay, I'll stop here today. All students, please take your parents back to your classes to carry out our theme activities!"

The [Speaking Meeting] activity officially started after Teacher Sun gave a great explanation.

Chen Tao followed Qiao Yingzi to the corridor outside her classroom, sat on a stool with Song Qian, and waited patiently in the prearranged order.

Huang Zhitao stood by the protective wall, looking at the scenery downstairs, feeling a little depressed.

Many classmates’ parents, even if they are divorced, came to participate in the event today.

But she only has her uncle Pan Shuai.

"Taozi, if you have anything to say, tell me~"

Qiao Yingzi was very smart and saw what was on her best friend's mind, so she walked over to make her happy.

"I talk to you every day, how can I have anything to say now?"

With that said, Huang Zhitao went to scratch Qiao Yingzi's itch.

"No, no, I have something to tell you, okay~"

Qiao Yingzi immediately begged for mercy.

"What are you talking about? I don't want to be your mother."

Huang Zhitao blurted out.

"..."

Qiao Yingzi was speechless and said in her heart that you'd better not imitate Sister Lin, otherwise we, two good sisters, would really have nothing to do.

ten minutes later.

Chen Tao walked into the empty classroom.

For this event, most of the tables, chairs and benches were moved to the corridor, with only three soft chairs placed back-to-back in the middle of the classroom.

The three of them sat on it, with their backs to each other, so no one could see the other.

Facing the three moved chairs, three more vertical mirrors were placed, with the four words "get to know the family, speak freely; listen with affection, and be moved with heart" posted on them... The purpose of this arrangement is obvious, it is to let people see. Clear your heart.

To be honest, the concept of this event is really good.

But if you think about it carefully, there are dozens of families in a class, and even if each family only talks for ten minutes, the afternoon is probably not enough.

But if it’s only ten minutes, or even less than that, how in-depth can the conversation be?

It can only be a mere formality.

As soon as Chen Tao thought this, Li Meng stood at the door and reminded: "Qiao Yingzi, hurry up with your parents, there are many parents waiting outside!"

Qiao Yingzi hummed and said to Chen Tao and Song Qian:

"Sit down quickly, let's finish this quickly, don't waste other parents' time."

Chen Tao sat down on the chair comfortably.

Song Qian also sat down, with a serious expression on her face, but she was a little nervous, not knowing what her daughter would say.

Qiao Yingzi hesitated again and again before saying seriously:

"Dad, Mom, I didn't have to worry about you when I was growing up, and I always listened to your words. Later, when you got divorced, you even asked me for my opinion. At that time, I already knew that you would not be happy even if you were forced to be together. So there is no objection. Besides, it’s useless for me to object, you will definitely not listen...but, I really don’t want to see you get divorced."

Chen Tao hummed and comforted:

"Under normal circumstances, no child wants to see his parents divorce... Yingzi, I can understand your feelings. But some things just happen so irrevocably that it will make you feel painful and difficult to accept. . But once you wake up, you have to slowly learn to accept it, and then cheer up and keep moving forward."

Qiao Yingzi is already an adult, and her EQ and IQ are quite high. Naturally, Chen Tao will not treat her like a child like Song Qian.

So he would say some things very directly, so as to prevent this girl from having any unrealistic fantasies and causing greater pain.

Song Qian curled her lips, not wanting to talk about this topic:

"Yingzi, let's talk about this matter later. Let's talk more about you now."

Qiao Yingzi pursed her lips and said bravely:

"Mom, actually I know very well that you have paid a lot for me and have worked very hard over the years, so I am very grateful to you and will not expect you to remarry my father. I just hope that my father will be happy, and I hope you can give me more Some trust, less blame.”

Song Qian nodded: "Okay."

Qiao Yingzi continued: "If possible, I hope mom can support me in getting admitted to Nanjing University."

This girl finally showed her cards.

Song Qian was a little confused: "Nanda? Is it the university in Jinling?"

Qiao Yingzi hummed and said with a trembling voice:

"Yes, I want to go to Jinling and study astronomy at Nanjing University..."

Song Qian couldn't help but stand up and her voice became louder:

"The relevant majors of universities in Beijing are not much worse than NTU, right? Why do you want to go to school there? Besides, how can any of our children in Beijing want to run away?!"

Chen Tao said with reason: "What you said is wrong. Children in the capital will go abroad if they have the conditions. That is much farther than going to Jinling!"

After Song Qian heard this, she immediately turned her gun and said to him dissatisfied:

"Yingzi wants to get admitted to Nanjing University, are you the one who encouraged her? You don't understand anything, so don't talk nonsense to Yingzi!"

Chen Tao did not immediately refute, but looked at the cheap daughter.

After all, Song Qian is not the only one who needs to change.

Qiao Yingzi also had to make changes.

Chen Tao was not interested in convincing Song Qian again and again so that Qiao Yingzi could continue to be her mother's good daughter.

Qiao Yingzi must first make up her mind, tell her true thoughts, and show her firm attitude...

"Parent, please don't leave your seat, and don't interrupt your child's speech with this attitude. This violates the original intention and rules of our Speech Club activity [Speak Out]."

Before Qiao Yingzi could express her attitude, the teacher in charge of the activity pushed open the door and made her attitude clear.

"Okay, sorry, I get it."

Song Qian did not insist, but sat down obediently.

After the teacher left, she said coldly:

"Qiao Weidong, I don't care what you tell Yingzi, anyway, I will never agree to her going to Jinling to go to school."

Chen Tao closed his eyes and remained silent.

Seeing this, Qiao Yingzi had no choice but to explain to Song Qian:

"Studying the universe has been my dream since I was a child; majoring in astronomy at NTU is also my own goal and has nothing to do with my father."

Song Qian was still willing to believe these words.

But...she was very dissatisfied with Chen Tao's attitude:

"Qiao Weidong, do you have any objections to your daughter going to Jinling to go to school?"

Chen Tao chuckled and said: "As long as Yingzi's idea is reasonable and feasible, then I will support her. Let alone NTU, even if it is MIT, which is thousands of miles away, as long as she can pass the exam, then I will support her. Study abroad.”

Things that Qiao Weidong would not agree to are not a problem at all for Chen Tao.

‘Still going abroad to study? What if she stays abroad to work in the future and never comes back? ! ’

Song Qian flatly refused: "It doesn't matter whether you support her or not, Yingzi has to listen to my mother."

PS: Don’t worry, everyone, the preparations have just been put in place.
