Tingdong looked helplessly at Yang Enwei and Zhou Lan. Seeing that they didn't show any resistance, he had no choice but to pour as much into Yumeng's cup as her mother. Then she sat down happily. Tingdong finally gave him

The glass was also filled with wine.

Yang Enwei did not hold the cup, and it was difficult for everyone to take the lead.

He looked at Ting Dong with a smile and said, "Dong'er, aren't you curious why uncle suddenly got an extra star? Why don't you ask me?"

Tingdong smiled: "Being promoted to lieutenant general, of course there will be changes in the work. The army cannot accommodate a lieutenant general. Seeing Aunt Zhou so happy, I guess there is a high possibility of returning to Beijing. Since I stay, I will definitely

I have a chance to learn about it, hee hee!"

Zhou Lan also smiled: "Dong'er is a thoughtful kid with a lot of wisdom. He will do great things in the future. Enwei, if you can help him without violating your principles, you must help him."

Yang Enwei smiled: "I'm afraid Tingdong will not become a soldier, otherwise I might be able to help him. Tingdong, your three good brothers are all serving as soldiers in Enping. They will have the opportunity to enter the military academy and become senior officers."

, maybe there will be a chance to come to my place, but I may have quit by then! Haha!"

Tingdong's heart moved and he said with a smile: "Uncle, so you have gone to the National Defense University? That is a great place. It is the cradle of senior generals. If you become the principal, the next step is to join the Central Military Commission!"

Yang Enwei looked at Tingdong in surprise: "Dong'er, do you know this? No wonder Enping and Enjia think so highly of you. It seems that uncle still has little contact with you and doesn't know you well enough."

Zhou Lan gave her husband an angry look and said, "No matter what we, Dong'er, do in the future, we will do well. Dong'er, come and let's toast your uncle together."

Tingdong immediately raised his glass and said with a smile: "I wish my uncle a good promotion. I wish my uncle and aunt can finally return to Beijing for reunion. Next year Yumeng will return to Kyoto University and the whole family of three can be reunited."

Yang Enping and his wife looked at Tingdong in unison, and then exchanged knowing glances with each other.

Zhou Lan, who was already smiling, smiled even brighter after hearing Tingdong's words. Yang Enwei also looked at his daughter with a smile on his face, full of love.

Tingdong suddenly understood the actual meaning of this meal. It seemed that Uncle Yang and Aunt Zhou still trusted him quite a bit and did not communicate with him beforehand, which meant that they thought he would stand on their side.

Yu Meng was a little surprised: "Dong'er, are you saying that I have to go back to Beijing when I go to college? Does that mean you have to come too?"

Tingdong first drank a glass of wine with everyone, and then helped Yang Enwei, who also drank, fill it up. He looked at Yu Meng with a smile and said: "Meng'er, you majored in art. You know that you are the top artist in our country.

The institutions of study are the Central Academy of Fine Arts and the Department of Fine Arts of Tsinghua University, both of which are in Beijing.

"So, going back to the capital to study is your best choice. Although Chuncheng Normal University also has an art department, and even Jiangcheng University has an art school, they cannot be compared with the two universities in the capital. Only Mr. Tang is the only one there.

Well-known professor, you should understand this."

Yumeng's mood was a little low, but she still nodded.

Tingdong patted her little hand with some distress, and said softly: "Meng'er, we have one more year to go to high school together. After graduating from high school, we are destined to break up. We can't go to the same university again.

A class, do you understand?"

Yu Meng still nodded, but her eye circles were a little red.

Zhou Lan held her daughter in her arms distressedly, her eyes were moist. She looked up at Tingdong and said, "Dong'er, why don't you come to the capital as well? And Xiaoyu, your grades are so good, you can't be admitted to the capital."

No problem. If there is any problem with Xiaoyu, I will help you find a solution."

Tingdong felt very complicated. He knew that Yang Enwei and his wife were very principled people. For the sake of their daughter, Aunt Zhou must have made great determination to say such things.

However, he still shook his head and said: "Aunt Zhou, Uncle Yang, Meng'er, to be honest, I don't want to come to the capital to study at university, and Xiao Yu is unlikely. In addition to studying, I have other things to consider, and I have my own

life plan."

After a pause, he continued: "Meng'er, we will all grow up slowly, and we can't stay together every day. Your parents are the closest people to you.

"As for us, although we may not be in the same city, the transportation is so developed now. It only takes one night to take the train from Spring City to Beijing, less than ten hours by car, and more than an hour by plane. It is very easy to meet.

"You know me, I didn't study well in junior high school or high school, and the same goes for college. I promise you, whenever you want to see me, as long as you give me a call, I will come to you as quickly as possible. What do you think?

?”

Yumeng looked at Tingdong seriously and said, "Are you telling the truth? Are you not lying?"

Tingdong looked at Yumeng equally seriously: "Have I lied to you?"

Yu Meng's face finally showed the sunshine, and she smiled shyly in her mother's arms. Zhou Lan looked at Ting Dong gratefully and said, "Dong'er, Auntie, thank you."

Tingdong shook his head and said: "Auntie, what are you talking about? Meng'er is like my biological sister. If she can't see us, she will miss her. But if we can't see her, we will miss her too."

After saying that, Tingdong stared at Yu Meng and said, "Meng'er, are you interested in fashion design?"

"Yes!" Yu Meng's eyes lit up and she immediately sat up from her mother's arms. She opened her eyes and said, "Do you want me to learn fashion design? I'm just trying to design when I have nothing to do. I'm just playing by myself.

whee!"

Tingdong smiled: "I have seen drafts on the table in your studio. So, Meng'er, you can prepare a draft that you are more satisfied with, and I will ask a regular designer to take a look at it. If it is available, I will

What do you think about hiring you as our part-time designer?"

Yu Meng's reaction was also very quick, and she immediately said: "Dong'er, in that case, can we have a cooperative relationship? If I become a fashion designer, I will work for you, and then we will often be together."

Are we together? By the way, do you plan to also do clothing production?"

Tingdong smiled and did not answer Yu Meng's words. Instead, he turned to look at Zhou Lan and said, "Auntie, do you think Meng'er's career in fashion design is acceptable?"

Although he felt that Uncle Yang and Aunt Zhou were not rigid people, Yumeng was the little princess of the Yang family after all. Most of these aristocratic families would have unified arrangements for their children, and it would be difficult for the children to make their own decisions.

Even their parents may not be able to make the decision.

Zhou Lan seemed to understand Ting Dong's intention, smiled and nodded and said: "Dong'er, I can tell you responsibly, Meng'er's future can be decided by me, which means that it can be decided by herself.

No one will interfere, this is what grandpa promised, and it also includes her marriage.

"As long as she recognizes it and feels happy, no matter what she does, even if she decides to become a farmer, her family must not interfere and must provide unconditional support."

Tingdong suddenly remembered what he said in the past. It is said that the old man once said that the Yang family owed Yu Meng. The child's status was indeed transcendent, but everyone seemed to understand it tacitly, and no one mentioned it again.

The meal didn't take too long, it was over in about an hour and a half, and Yumeng pestered Tingdong to visit her boudoir, studio, and her private collection.

Tingdong couldn't bear to let Yumeng down, so he stayed with her until after seven o'clock before saying goodbye. He was sent back to the hotel by the extended red flag that picked him up. He was the old man's guest.

During his stay in Beijing, this car can basically be assigned to him.

On the way, he called Wang Sike. To his surprise, Xiaoke was waiting for him in the coffee shop downstairs of the hotel.

Xiao Ke is wearing a light brown suit, which outlines her slim and graceful figure. She is a thirty-year-old professional woman, a pure intellectual beauty, and her body has a bookish air.

Seeing the handsome young man walking quickly, Xiao Ke stood up slowly, opened his arms, and said with a smile: "Tingdong, sister really misses you, don't you miss me?"

Tingdong was very touched. He knew that what Xiaoke said was neither polite nor a lie. Like Bentham, she had always cared for him and would unconditionally choose to stand by him at any time, even with his family.

There was a conflict, but Xiao Ke was more reserved than Ah Qin. They were both his confidante.

Tingdong held Xiao Ke tightly in his arms, patted her back gently and said: "Sister Xiao Ke, are you too tired and a little thin? I still like you to be plumper.

When the burden is heavy, you should pay attention to rest. Leave what others can do to them and do everything personally. You are not a good boss!"

Xiao Ke put her face against his chin and murmured: "You bad guy, you took away my Aqin and no one helped me. How can I not be tired? If you feel sorry for me, just take it away."

She gave it back to me."

Tingdong let go of Wang Sike, and the two of them sat down on a low sofa next to it. This was a coffee and teahouse area. It was open and dimly lit. Most of them were couples enjoying coffee or other drinks.

A cup of cappuccino was already placed in front of Tingdong.

Xiao Ke smiled and said: "I know you are not very picky about drinks, so I ordered you a drink. Do you mind?"

Tingdong also smiled: "Are you aware that I am not picky? By the way, Sister Xiaoke, I came here this time to discuss with you and prepare to return Aqin to you. You should be satisfied now."

Alright?"

Xiao Ke's eyes lit up, and then he smiled bitterly and shook his head, saying: "Forget it, I don't believe it. That heartless guy who values ​​sex over his sister, when he has a man, he doesn't even want his sister. He's tired of you all day long."
