Chapter 201 Past and present

Dong Zijian's answer obviously made Xu Wei even more confused.

Teacher Dong, I remember that in the third year of high school, a month before you left school, weren’t you already engaged, and many people in the class saw the engagement ring on your hand. Could it be... Did you say something?

You mean...you mean that thing Ah...

Dong Zijian's face instantly became awkward.

After raising my cup and taking a sip of hot coffee, I said embarrassedly: At that time... at that time, I did get engaged to a girl under the arrangement of my parents. I originally agreed to get married after graduation, but it was a pity...

It’s a pity that on the eve of graduation, the girl suddenly found me and said that she met someone she really liked and hoped to end her previous engagement.

She...how could she do this?Teacher Dong, you shouldn't agree to her...

Xu Wei never expected that such a thing would happen after Dong Zijian left school after his internship.

Is there anything I can agree to this or not? Although we were engaged before, we didn’t get a marriage certificate and didn’t hold the ceremony, and her heart was no longer with me. What if I don’t agree, it will only make her hate me for no reason.

Although Dong Zijian's mouth was open and free, the gloom in his eyes could not be hidden from Xu Wei at all.

But...but...

Xu Wei spent a long time, and didn't know what to say to comfort Dong Zijian. The whole thing seemed to be the girl who was wrong.

But if you think about it carefully, just as Dong Zijian said, since you have not really gotten married, the other party certainly has the right to choose.

But what she couldn't understand was that a tall, handsome and warm man like Dong Zijian was already the most perfect man in the eyes of the girls in their class back then. What kind of person was that the girl who resolutely gave up Dong Zijian after getting engaged.

Fortunately, this question did not last long in Xu Wei's mind, and Dong Zijian, who was sitting opposite her, gave the answer directly.

Actually... she can't blame her entirely for this. Although she and I are engaged, they don't really know each other well. They have met several times under the arrangement of both parents. What else can I say? Her new boyfriend heard that his family is very good and can easily give her very generous living conditions. I am a physical education teacher. At best, after graduation, I just go to school to be a physical education teacher, and I have no ability to give her the happiness she wants...

Teacher Dong, you are wrong. Not all girls in this world only pay attention to material conditions, and happiness is not just based on absolutely generous material foundations. She did not choose you, which is her life loss. I believe that Teacher Dong, you will definitely meet a better person to accompany you for the rest of your life.

Perhaps he was infected by Dong Zijian's narration, or because he was a teacher profession, Xu Wei was obviously a little excited when he said these words.

OK Xiaowei, don’t comfort me. I have already let go after so many years...

Dong Zijian shook his head gently, obviously not believing what Xu Wei said just now.

Teacher Dong, I'm not comforting you. The words I just said are sincere...

Xu Wei frowned, with a slight anger on his face.

Seeing Xu Wei's serious look on his face, Dong Zijian's heart was moved.

He raised his head and looked at Xu Wei's eyes and said affectionately: Then I'll ask you Xiaowei, a girl like you... is she willing to marry a sports teacher who has no money or power like me?

Of course I do!

As soon as he said that, Xu Wei seemed to realize the grammatical problem in his words, and he corrected in a panic: Teacher Dong, I... I mean... there will be such a girl who is willing to marry you...

Fortunately, Dong Zijian did not get too entangled with this issue, but just smiled at Xu Wei with relief, and soon changed the topic and began to ask about Xu Wei's college life and every bit of what he went to H City to teach after graduation.

Xu Wei accidentally revealed Dong Zijian's sad past just now, and now she feels a little guilty. Therefore, as long as it does not involve her privacy topic, she will tell her life after graduating from high school bit by bit.

I didn’t expect that Xiaowei, you went to Canada to study Ah when you were in college. This is much better than me. Speaking of which, I am ashamed that I have grown up, but I have never even gone out of the provincial capital.

It was a coincidence that I happened to catch up with a Canadian university and signed an exchange student agreement with our school. I was chosen by the college in a confused manner. In fact, I only found that I was not as good as my motherland when I really went abroad...

Xiaowei, it’s not easy for you to think like this. As far as I know, today’s college graduates are rushing to run abroad if they have any choice…

The two chatted for a while, and the topic gradually changed from Xu Wei's college life to Xu Wei's current teaching career.

When talking about the workplace, emotional issues are naturally indispensable.

Sure enough, after a while of chatting, Dong Zijian said intentionally or unintentionally: Xiaowei, you are so young and beautiful, there must be many male teachers in your school pursuing you crazy.

Where is it?Teacher Dong, don’t joke, but Teacher Dong, you must be very popular in Renmin University High School, so don’t you think about starting over?

Xu Wei was not willing to mention his marriage that could be said to be extremely failed. After taking a light sentence, he threw the problem back to Dong Zijian.

After chatting for a while, Xu Wei suddenly remembered something, raised his arm in panic, glanced at the watch on it, and said apologetically: Sorry, Teacher Dong, the exam should be over soon, I probably have to pick up my student quickly...

It doesn’t matter. Since the exam is about to end, I have to rush back to maintain order outside the exam room. Let’s go back together.

While speaking, Dong Zijian and Xu Wei returned to Renmin University High School. As soon as they walked to the outer wall of the High School, they heard the sound of flutes representing the end of the exam.

Immediately following the campus, which was as quiet as stagnant the moment before, suddenly became crowded.

Dong Zijian apologized to Xu Wei and said: Then Xiaowei, let’s separate here. Please be careful by yourself. Oh, by the way, this is my mobile phone number. If you encounter anything, please contact me at any time.

Dong Zijian said as he pulled out a business card from his body and stuffed it into Xu Wei's hand. The business card was paid for him when he was promoted to the director of the teaching department. It was useless for him to carry it on him normally. Unexpectedly, it happened to be useful today.

The other party was kind, and Xu Wei naturally couldn't refuse. After accepting Dong Zijian's business card with a blushing face, he said: Thank you, Teacher Dong. To be honest, I really didn't expect to meet you again after graduation.

This may be fate.

Dong Zijian said with a smile.

But today is really too hasty.

I'm really a little nervous.

Xu Wei followed up with a sentence.

Speaking of this, Dong Zijian suddenly hesitated for a moment and asked: Xiaowei, will you return to H City today? Or will you stay in the provincial capital for two more days...

In fact, I had already booked my ticket for the return trip this afternoon a few days ago.

This way... Then you should pay more attention to safety on the road...

A trace of loss flashed in Dong Zijian's eyes, but he quickly hid it with a smile. He waved his hand at Xu Wei and got into the crowd outside the gate of Renmin University High School, and squeezed in the direction of the gate with great effort.

Watching Dong Zijian's figure gradually disappear into the crowd, Xu Wei's mood was very complicated.

Dong Zijian can be said to have the purest feelings she had when she was a girl, but when she met again many years later, everything that was once familiar with became a little strange.

She didn't know where these strangers came from, whether she was changed by time, or Dong Zijian was changed by time, or whether both of them had changed...

Teacher Xu!Teacher Xu!

Just as Xu Wei was staring at the crowd in front of him, the happy Wu Shen squeezed out the crowd and came to her.

His sudden appearance made Xu Wei a little dazed, as if Dong Zijian had stood in front of her five years ago again, but in just a moment the illusion in his mind disappeared, and Wu Shen's face in front of him gradually became clearer.

Why did you sweat so much?

Taking out the handkerchief, Xu Wei gently wiped the sweat beads on Wu Shen's forehead.

There is no way, the entrance of the affiliated high school is too crowded. There are only a few hundred students coming to take the exam, but there are more people around the school gate than when they participated in the preliminary round and the rematch...

Wu Shen frowned.

Who made you squeeze out so anxiously? After waiting inside for a while, there will naturally be fewer people around the school gate.

Hehe, I want to meet the teacher early.

What nonsense? I haven't had any regular appearance all day

Xu Wei frowned and glanced at Wu Shen with a fierce look. After all, she was in a public place now, so she didn't want Wu Shen to say anything inappropriate.

By the way, how do you feel about this test paper? Are you sure?

There should be no problem, right?

Wu Shen scratched his head, and he seemed to have no confidence in his answer, but the smile in his eyes had betrayed him.

Seeing his confident look, Xu Wei finally let go of his heart. As long as Wu Shen successfully passed the provincial trials, the only thing left is the final national competition.

Teacher Xu, I'm hungry, where can we eat later?

The intense exam obviously consumed a lot of Wu Shen's energy. After chatting with Xu Wei for a few words, his stomach started to growl.

Xu Wei was about to lead him to find a restaurant and have a good meal, a silver-gray car suddenly stopped in front of the two of them. The moment the window rolled down, Dong Zijian poked his head out of the cab and looked at Xu Wei and Wu Shen beside Xu Wei with a smile.

Teacher Dong, you...why...are you...you want to stay and maintain order outside the exam room?

Dong Zijian's appearance surprised Xu Wei.

That's right. Now the candidates have basically left the school and there are not many people who need to maintain order. The principal is just me who gets off work early. This is the student you mentioned just now. As for a high school student, he is really tall enough.

Teacher Xu, who is?

Although it was only the first time to meet Dong Zijian, Wu Shen seemed to be instinctively hostile to the man in front of him.

Especially when Dong Zijian walked down from the driver's seat of the silver-gray sedan, his tall and tall figure and sunny and steady expression made Wu Shen feel even more unhappy.

He was Mr. Dong, who was responsible for teaching his teacher physical education when he was in the affiliated high school.

Xu Wei was not prepared to hide Dong Zijian's identity from Wu Shen.

When Wu Shen heard the words "Teacher Dong" who taught sports, he finally understood where the hostility in his heart came from.

Because this teacher Dong is clearly the one mentioned by Xu Wei before, she admired the physical education teacher she missed very much when she was in high school but regretted it for various reasons...
