Chapter 680: The Past and the Present
Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales
I remember that I didn’t seem to att end school for half a month. I had been bored at home, and I didn’t listen to anyone. After the incident, the first thing I did when I first stepped past the school gate was to find a few girl delinquents to beat up Zhou Jiajia…
Yang Ming felt a little regret as he recalled the incident…
September 30
Today, several girl delinquents from the underworld taught me a lesson. I know that it was he
who sent the girl delinquents. I’m not going to tell the teacher this time. Probably allow him to
let some steam off. As long as he no longer blames me.
Ai , I really made a mistake! Originally, I thought that as long as he and Su Ya were separated, I get
to be with him. My thoughts were too simplistic… I regret it now, but how could I fix it?
Looking at Zhou Jiajia’s journey, Yang Ming kept shaking his head and sighing. Who wasn’t young before? It was really an innocent and impulsive era… The attachment to the young and inexperienced love, the longing for blissfulness, it could really make a person relentless…
Zhou Jiajia was so. Wasn’t I the same? Now I laugh at Zhou Jiajia being foolish. In fact, I’m just laughing at myself! I actually found someone to beat up Zhou Jiajia and I fell into despair due to Su Ya’s incident…
Thinking about it now, it was indeed an unwise decision.
” Dangdangdang ,” there were knocks on the door coming from outside the room. Yang Ming quickly closed the diary and asked, “Who is it?”
“Big Ming, it’s me, your dad.” Yang Dahai pushed the door and went in as he spoke.
“Dad, what’s the matter?” Yang Ming put Zhou Jiajia’s diary on the bedside table and then sat up.
Yang Dahai glanced at Yang Ming’s diary on the bedside table. He asked curiously, “Big Ming, do you still keep a diary?”
Zhou Jiajia’s diary was the kind of lock-up diary that was sold at the market, so it was noticeable at a glance.
” Oh , it isn’t mine.” Yang Ming smiled and said, “It is Zhou Jiajia’s diary…”
“Zhou Jiajia?” Yang Dahai stared at him blankly and frowned. “Isn’t she the girl who sold you out in junior high school?”
“It’s her. That’s right.” Yang Ming didn’t deny it and nodded. Now that I’m ready to accept Zhou Jiajia, I can’t hide it from my parents.
“Then you can’t peek at someone else’s diary. That is unethical!” Yang Dahai apparently misunderstood Yang Ming. He thought that Yang Ming peeked at Zhou Jiajia’s diary, trying to find some of her personal matters to use for blackmail.
Yang Ming didn’t know whether he should laugh or cry. “Dad, you misunderstood me! This diary… Ai , how do I tell you…?”
“What the h.e.l.l is going on? If you have anything, just say it. You don’t need to hide from your dad!” Yang Dahai shook his head and said, “If you don’t have a good reason, don’t look at it again, and give it back!”
Yang Ming hesitated for a moment and thought for a long time. “Dad, I can’t explain everything in a few words. I will tell you from the beginning!”
“Just say it. I’m listening.” Yang Dahai also wanted to hear Yang Ming’s reasons. Yang Dahai was secure in his son’s character, so there was definitely a reason for this incident. Yang Dahai wanted to figure it out.
“Dad! Zhou Jiajia and I are college cla.s.smates, but she was injured and now stays in the hospital. She hasn’t woken up yet…” began Yang Ming.
“What? Was she hurt because of you? In the hospital?” Yang Dahai was surprised. “What the h.e.l.l is going on?”
“Dad, I told you but don’t worry about it…” Yang Ming finished his words and looked at Yang Dahai’s expression. He noticed that his father nodded and continued, “Before Chinese New Year, I helped Uncle Chen to solve a smuggling case. I was kidnapped by their smugglers to their base. In the most dangerous moment, Zhou Jiajia blocked a shot…”
Yang Ming had an unclear resentment with w.a.n.g Zhitao, so Yang Ming simply pushed everything to Chen Fei. Since it was to arrest the bad guys, his father, who was a person with a sense of justice, would certainly support him.
Sure enough, Yang Dahai nodded after listening and sighed. “It turned out to be such a thing… Ai , this silly kid! Big Ming, why don’t you tell me earlier?”
“Dad, don’t you want to ask why she blocked the shot for me?” Yang Ming asked curiously.
“Do I still need to ask?” Yang Dahai looked at the diary on the table and shook his head. “Your dad, I, have lived until this old age, can these matters still make me wonder? If I didn’t guess wrong, this little girl sold you out because she was jealous of you and Su Ya.”
” Ah ?” Yang Ming didn’t think that Dad was so powerful, and said the main point immediately.
“What are you going to do?” Yang Dahai didn’t ask much but asked directly.
“I have promised her that I would take care of her in the future…” Yang Ming said guiltily.
“Big Ming, it is inappropriate to interfere with your matter.” Yang Dahai was also helpless. “But now you have two girlfriends, Mengyan and Lan Ling, and you add another one… What would Mengyan and they all think?”
“Mengyan is also sympathetic to her. It isn’t a big deal to deal with her inner thoughts.” Yang Ming said.
“If I remember correctly, you still owe a girl named Lin Zhiyun…” Yang Dahai reminded him.
” Yeah …” Yang Ming nodded deeply. The responsibility that I have to shoulder is getting heavier and heavier.
“I would meet her parents with your mother on another day.” Yang Dahai said, “Whether Zhou Jiajia can wake up or not, your mom and I will help you take care of her.”
“Dad… Thank you for understanding…” Yang Ming was touched as he replied. I thought my father would be angry with me.
Yang Dahai patted Yang Ming’s shoulder. “Big Ming, you’re already an adult now. Dad won’t say anything more. If you think it’s correct, just go and do it!”
Yang Ming smiled and suddenly thought of one thing, “Yes, Dad, why were you looking for me?”
“This is the case, Big Ming.” Yang Dahai took out a piece of paper from his pocket and said, “I have studied it with Old Feng and Little w.a.n.g. About the matters of the concert, which place do you think is better to organize this? One of them is the gymnasium in your university, Song Jiang Industry University, while the other choice will be the Seventh District Stadium. Which place do you think is better?”
“You don’t have to discuss with me about this matter, right? It’s an insignificant matter.” Yang Ming looked at his father’s information and said, “I think it’s better in the university gymnasium. Many of the college students are Shu Ya fans so the atmosphere can be a little exhilarating… But if you’re talking from the perspective of social influence, it is still better to do it in the stadium.”
“We just had this disagreement because of this…” Yang Dahai smiled bitterly, “Old Feng wanted it in the Seventh District Stadium while Little w.a.n.g wanted it in the university gymnasium. Both places have their strength just as you said! Old Feng came from the perspective of publicity, thinking that the outreach will be wider if the advertis.e.m.e.nt is done in society. However, Little w.a.n.g who came from the perspective of economic benefits thought that Shu Ya was an idol of college students. It would be more popular to organize it at the campus and make a profit at the same time.”
“How is this a challenge?” Yang Ming smiled and said, “In any case, Shu Ya’s itinerary says she’s in Song Jiang for many days. Let’s arrange a few rounds in both places!”
“That’s right. Why didn’t I think of it?” Yang Dahai said as he patted his thigh. “That is it! I will facilitate the venue’s matter tomorrow.”
” Oh ya , Dad, give me a copy of Shu Ya’s detailed itinerary tomorrow. I will head over as we welcome her at the airport.” Yang Ming said.
“Okay. Big Ming, do you know Shu Ya?” Yang Dahai was a bit curious.
“You can consider that as well. I thought that her name is similar to that of Su Ya, so I paid more attention to her.” Yang Ming explained.
Yang Dahai nodded and didn’t say anything. He turned around and left Yang Ming’s room.
Yang Ming hadn’t been online for a long time. When his father went out, he switched on the computer and logged into QQ.
The offline notification that kept ringing shocked Yang Ming. However, most of them were some inexplicable group messages. Yang Ming closed them one by one. There was a group called “Fishman Loyal Fan.” Yang Ming didn’t know when he was added in the group, so he left directly.
“I’m a Superstar” left a lot of messages to Yang Ming. In the beginning, it was still neutral emoticons. But, there were only angry emoticons later on and nothing else. Most probably, the person was a bit angry because Yang Ming didn’t go online for a long time.
“I’m sorry. I have been busy recently. I can’t stay online for so long. Are you still there?” Yang Ming sent a sorry smile.
Speaking of it, Yang Ming was really apologetic to I’m a Superstar. He hadn’t spoken to her for a long time. When Yang Ming was in despair, to have such a friend with whom he could exchange advice felt really good.
Now, I’m faring well and yet I have forgotten about this netizen who had accompanied me. Although the two people had never met, they could be described as good friends on the internet.
