Countdown to Awakening

Chapter 238 Not Going Home for the New Year

Shang Wen didn't say anything, just kept nodding.

But she has no choice now. She can't say that she is not Lin Hao, but a girl who traveled from the 21st century, right?

If she told these things, Qi Rongfeng might rather she was Lin Hao.

This era does not allow their romance to appear.

After a while, Qi Yuanyuan continued to ask, "Dad, what made you want to set up a stall at the school gate? Did something happen at home and you need money urgently?"

Qi Rongfeng shook his head.

"To be honest, I'm a little worried about you...that's why I'm here making pancakes. But I can't let other students recognize me like this, so I can only ask you to go back to school first. If someone recognizes you, won't you be laughed at? How can I go out in front of others like this? There are so many students in the university. Can I let others know that I'm your father and then let so many people laugh at you? Don't worry about me. I'll be fine. I made these pancakes when I was young, and there's nothing wrong with it. The students around here love them."

Qi Yuanyuan didn't know what to say for a moment...

It turned out that he was worried about her.

……

"Dad, you should go home. You don't have to work so hard to set up a stall here. I have enough money. Besides, there's no place to live here. You're exposed to the wind and sun every day setting up a stall. You may not make any money. If something happens to your health one day, how will we know? There are people in the village who can help you."

Qi Rongfeng nodded, but he still decided to work for a few more days. The students here all like to eat the pancakes from Dajian. If he can earn more, then your family can exchange most of the things they want, and you can also save some money for emergencies.

"Yuanyuan, I know you're worried about me, but I want to work a few more days. Don't worry, I won't be left without a place to live. I rent a small house not far from school, and the landlord treats me very well. If I don't earn back the rent, I won't feel at ease. Just let me work a few more days. When this semester is over, I'll go home for the New Year. If you go home for the New Year, you can buy more delicious food."

Qi Yuanyuan was a little embarrassed.

She and Sun Pandi had already agreed not to go home for the New Year.

They were all well aware of Sun Pandi's family situation. Zhang Haifeng had no one but his mother, so he definitely had to go back. But Qi Yuanyuan was different. Her parents were both home, so it wouldn't matter if she didn't go back. At most, there would be one less person at home for the New Year. If she could stay with Sun Pandi, maybe they could find a part-time job together to earn some extra money. That would be perfect.

"Dad, I might not be home then. I'm busy here. I recently found a part-time job. Many people will be back in Oil City for the New Year, so I can make more money. You and Mom can spend the New Year together at home. If I'm not busy here, I can call you."

Qi Rongfeng looked at Qi Yuanyuan and then at Lin Hao beside her, and he understood a little.

Girls can’t stay at home when they grow up…

"Then... where are you going to live if you don't go home for the New Year? Are you going to move to his house?"

Qi Yuanyuan quickly denied it, "No, no... no. To be honest, I want to stay here to accompany Pan Di. How about this, Zheng Haifeng will celebrate the New Year with you. After all, the three of us grew up together, and you've watched him grow up. He's like a brother to me. Let him go home and celebrate the New Year with you in my place. Wouldn't that be the same?"
