Su Xi came out of the exhibition hall and said, "Yining, I think your photos will definitely win an award."
"Winning or not isn’t important. What’s important is that I feel I’ve learned a lot today," Pei Yining said, although she still felt confident about winning an award, she thought that gaining knowledge was more crucial than winning.
"Great attitude." Su Xi praised, "Don’t be too modest, though. Whether you win or not, your photos are truly beautiful!"
"Hehe," Pei Yining was even happier with her affirmation.
After Su Xi returned home, she thought it over and still went out, specifically to find Fei Jiayi. Since the beginning of summer vacation, Fei Jiayi hadn’t gone out much and was busy studying English.
Fei’s parents saw their daughter working so hard and were quite distressed. Every day, they tried to make something delicious for Fei Jiayi to boost her nutrition.
"Jiayi, how about going to see the photography exhibition?" Su Xi asked.
As expected, Fei Jiayi refused, saying, "My dear sister, I’m busy now. If you want to see the photography exhibition, find someone else to go with you." For origınal chapters go to 𝖓𝖔𝖛𝖊𝖑~𝖋𝖎𝖗𝖾~𝖓𝖊𝖙
These days, although she’s been reading books, listening to English broadcasts, and studying, life has been very busy. From opening her eyes to going to sleep, except for eating and going to the bathroom, she has been studying all the time. She feels that she wasn’t even this diligent during her senior year in high school. Even in her dreams, she’s memorizing vocabulary.
However, this kind of life makes her feel very fulfilled.
"You’re really not going? Even if it includes Nianhua’s photos?" Su Xi crossed her arms, looked down at her, and sighed lightly, saying, "I also wanted to say that this time, the photos Pei Yining took are truly beautiful. I wanted to invite you to go together. Since you don’t want to go, forget it then."
"What photos?" Fei Jiayi looked at Su Xi in confusion.
Su Xi explained briefly and emphasized that this photography exhibition only lasted three days.
Fei Jiayi instantly stood up and said, "Then let’s hurry and take a look!"
Photos praised so much by Su Xi definitely piqued Fei Jiayi’s interest.
"What, you’re not studying anymore?" Su Xi pursed her lips, looked at Fei Jiayi, and feigned a sigh, saying, "Sigh, I’ve lost favor. I invite you, and you refuse, but for Nianhua, you’re willing to go."
"My dear sister, haven’t I accompanied you to play in many places before?" Fei Jiayi happily put her arm around her shoulder and said, "Weren’t you always telling me to work harder at studying and not be lazy? Now, I’m diligent and hardworking. Why are you complaining?"
Is this what they mean by hoisting one’s own petard?
In the past, during senior year, Su Xi spent a lot of effort trying to get Fei Jiayi to study together every day, but it didn’t yield much.
Now, she’s putting in effort, and there’s no one to accompany her out.
Fei Jiayi followed Su Xi out as quickly as possible. If it had been in the past, Mother Fei would have been unhappy again, saying Fei Jiayi just wanted to go out and play, but today, Mother Fei was very happy indeed, saying, "Xiaoxi, come and take Jiayi out more often. Don’t have her cooped up indoors all day. Studying needs breaks too, you know."
"Auntie, then I’ll have dinner with Jiayi today before coming back." Su Xi seized the opportunity and said, pulling Fei Jiayi out the door.
The outside light made Fei Jiayi instinctively shield her eyes. After some effort, she recalled that ever since the vacation started, she’d been stuck at home and hadn’t stepped out, no wonder even her mom was encouraging her to go out and play more.
