How could she not understand Tong Yan’s temperament? She knew he would feel very annoyed if she confessed to him.
Just like Liu Yating, who obviously grew up with Tong Yan. Tong Yan basically ignored her after she confessed her love.
So Xu Xinduo knew that if Tong Yan knew she liked him, the two of them might not even remain friends.
Tong Yan didn’t leave any hope for a girl whom he didn’t like.
This disregard for others’ feelings was cruel.
Edges of Xu Xinduo’s eyes turned a little red again. She rubbed her eyes to prevent tears from falling and lowered her head to continue reading, but she still couldn’t help but feel sad.
Inadvertently, tears landed on the book.
The feeling of liking someone couldn’t be suppressed at all. It was very hard to control herself. She didn’t know what to do…
She quickly wiped her tears and thought to herself: You’ve already gotten a lot. You’re luckier than anyone else. You know Tong Yan better than everyone else. You’re closer to Tong Yan than any other girl.
However, this unique sense of closeness would always delude her, making her feel that she still had hope.
Hope that was shattered again and again.
Giving up was also… Impossible.
If this continued, even being friends was hard.
Xu Xinduo’s world was very simple, consisting of only two people. One was Grandma Xu and the other was Tong Yan.
If she fell out with Tong Yan, her world would split in half and she would collapse with it.
She opened up WeChat and looked at the message sent by Director Huang. She hesitated again.
She really wanted to join the rocket class, because the rocket class had tuition waivers, which would ease her stress a lot. However, she did not want to study abroad.
How could I afford the cost of studying abroad without relying on Tong Yan?
When she transferred to this school, she wanted to join the international class wholeheartedly just because Tong Yan was here. Thinking about it now, it was really a bit silly, but it was too late to transfer to the Rockets class now.
Moreover, Grandma Xu’s health was not so good anymore. She was afraid that something might happen to Grandma Xu while she was aboard, and that she wouldn’t be able to return quickly. If she remained in China, she could take Grandma Xu to the place where she would go to university. Moreover, she wouldn’t have to worry about her being alone.
Director Huang was very polite and understood Xu Xinduo’s circumstances. He promised that he would help Xu Xinduo apply to the school.
While she was waiting for Director Huang’s reply, she saw a message prompt from the modelling company. It contained the contract details and asked her to read it through carefully.
She read through the document and noticed one of the clauses: You can’t fall in love during the contract period.
She sent a screenshot of it to her assigned manager and asked: Why is there such a strict requirement?
This manager seemed to dislike typing. She would either send her a voice message or simply voice call her.
She clicked on the voice message and heard the content sent by the manager: “Our company uses model idolization, unlike other modelling companies. All of our models are given a unique image and we have found a suitable one for you. Your contract period is short. You are going to become an adult in one year, aren’t you? After learning about that, we have decided to give you the image of a cold and beautiful high school girl. Puppy love is definitely not good for that image.”
The company had offered her reasonable terms and it was most likely to give face to Shao Qinghe.
