1205 chapter 2: a bright future and a meaningful life

fang taoran sat down.

she massaged her temples, looking a little distressed. ” all these years, when i pretended to be ordinary in front of you, didn’t you laugh in your heart? ”

tang qian said, ” studying is so boring. there’s a drama queen acting for us. it’s free of charge and we don’t have to buy tickets. how interesting. ”

the other two people nodded in agreement with tang qian.

fang taoran didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.

“if i knew this would happen, i wouldn’t have pretended!” she really didn’t know that fang yusheng had done those things behind her back. she looked distressed, but she was actually quite touched.

it was a blessing to have a father who loved her.

“then, our wang ye wouldn’t know about it too, right?”

hearing this, hu beilei finally put down her chopsticks. she stared at the watch on fang taoran’s wrist and said, ” as long as wang ye has a good eye, he can recognize that the watch on your wrist is expensive. ”

fang taoran had always worn this watch. it was a birthday gift from qiao jiusheng on her eighteenth birthday. this watch was very expensive. it was a global limited edition that was released in the year of the coronation for love. there were less than ten of them in total, and each of them had a unique number on it.

back then, because the price of this watch was too high, it caused a storm in the global fashion circle as soon as it was released.

fang taoran was completely dumbfounded.

now she finally understood what wang ye’s faint smile and somewhat complicated expression meant when she lied that her family background was ordinary when she pursued him.

from the beginning, everyone had seen through her act, but they were all playing along with her.

shaking his head, fang taoran raised his can of beer and said to tang qian and the rest, ” let’s not talk about anything else. come, sisters, we’re going to graduate soon. after graduation, i’ll travel all over the world. may the future be bright and life be full of joy! ”

the noisy atmosphere suddenly quieted down after fang taoran said this.

in the end, tang qian was the first to pick up her beer can and said in a bold tone, ” come on, let’s have a drink. i wish everyone to get rid of their single status soon. if you want to get married, you must marry a good man. if you want to be single, you must earn enough money. ” you can only live a high-quality single life if you have money.”

“alright, cheers!”

the four girls all stood up, clinked their glasses, and drank the rest of the beer in the can. even mo lan finished her beer slowly. seeing how mo lan was giving them face, everyone looked at each other and smiled. everything was clear without words.

the meal lasted for nearly two hours before it ended. on the way back to school, everyone’s hearts were filled with a faint sadness.

tang qian and fang taoran were both from binjiang city, so they would be able to see each other often in the future. hu beilei was from yucheng. her family was quite well-off, and she was very capable. if she wanted to have a party, she could fly to binjiang city at any time, so it would be easy to meet her in the future.

only mo lan was different.

mo lan’s home was in a small county. mo lan had no parents, only a grandmother. she used to say that she would find a suitable man in her hometown to marry in the future because she couldn’t let go of her grandmother.

if possible, mo lan wanted to bring her nanny to live in binjiang city. it was not easy to settle down and live in a big city.

fang taoran and tang qian were not short of money. they could help mo lan settle down in binjiang city. however, mo lan was too proud to accept their help.

they would be separated after graduation. who knew what mo lan’s future would be like?

fang taoran had already packed everything today, and qi bufan had come to pick her up personally.

he helped fang taoran carry the luggage into the car. after fang taoran got in, qi bufan saw that there was no smile on her face and guessed what she was feeling down about. he comforted her, ” all good things must come to an end. ran ran, don’t worry. ”

” i understand, uncle qi. it’s just that i can’t bear to part with him. ”

qi bufan made a sound of acknowledgment. he recalled the scene when he was discharged from the army and could understand fang taoran’s feelings. before the car reached home, fang taoran received a call from wang ye.

“ran ran, where are you?” wang ye’s voice was muffled.

fang taoran replied, ” at my house. i just got back. what’s the matter? ”

wang ye strangely fell silent for a moment.

“wang ye? why aren’t you saying anything?” fang taoran didn’t notice wang ye’s abnormality and only thought that he was busy. it just so happened that her heart was also filled with the melancholy of parting, so her reaction was a little slow.

“ranran, let’s meet tonight.”

“alright!” fang taoran was frustrated at the thought of graduating soon, so he said to wang ye, ” i just moved my luggage out of the dormitory. when i think about how we’re going to graduate soon and how we won’t have much chance to see each other in the future, i feel terrible. i just wanted to find something to do, so you asked me out.”

“where are we meeting? what time do you want to meet?”

fang taoran’s tone clearly became cheerful.

wang ye said that he would talk about it after work and then hurriedly hung up the phone.

qi bufan saw a smile on fang taoran’s face and said, ” you young people are so good. sadness comes and goes quickly. ”

“uncle qi is not old either.”

“i’m almost 60, i’m getting old!”

qi bufan would be 60 years old in two years. perhaps it was because of the strict requirements of the year-round training, but he looked much younger than his actual age. people would believe it if he said he was 50 years old.

“compared to your father, we are old.”

fang taoran pursed her lips and said, ” don’t compare yourself to my dad. my dad is a demon. ”

“you’ve finally said something decent.”

as the two of them spoke, they arrived at the fang residence.

qi bufan was still helping fang taoran carry his luggage. when he entered the house, he saw lisha sitting in the small courtyard, basking in the sun. qi bufan stopped and called her aunt. lisa opened her eyes and stared at qi bufan with her green eyes for a moment before saying, ” it’s bufan. ”

“it’s me, aunt. how have you been recently?” he asked.

“it’s alright,”

they were almost 80 years old. in the past two years, lisa and chi boguang’s health had been deteriorating. a few days ago, chi boguang had almost suffered a stroke because of a fall. he had been hospitalized for a few days and had only returned two days ago.

“where’s uncle? are you resting?”

“he went to the toilet.” lisa said, ” he kept saying that he drank too much water and kept running to the toilet. ” lisa wanted to sit up and pour herself a glass of water. she tried to move her body and found that her body was not as good as before, and even getting up was a little difficult.

“i’ll do it, auntie.” qi bufan strode over and poured a glass of water for her.

lisa took a sip, shook her head, and said, ” i’m old. i’m really old. ” when she said this, her tone was quite flat.

qi bufan couldn’t say something that went against his heart like ‘you are still young’.

everyone would grow old one day, and the once elegant and beautiful aunt lisa had also reached the age of a rotten tree. in a dozen years, he, mr. fang, and the others would also become like this.

this was life. no one could escape the end of growing old. the difference was that some people grew old calmly, while some grew old in a sorry state.
