Ding Nan finally listened to Sun Yan's advice and went to see Wang Rui again. She also convinced herself to get along with him seriously and went to look for him every weekend. However, half a year later, at the end of the first semester, she gave up completely.
Speaking of a relationship that they had been together for half a year, the two of them had never held hands once. This seemed to be written as a new version of the Arabian Nights. This was indeed the case. Every time he faced Wang Rui, Ding Nan would always be absent-minded and indifferent when looking at him, while Wang Rui would always be timid when looking at him. Although she was looking at him politely and replying to him, sometimes she would take the initiative to find a topic to talk about, her mind and heart were filled with thoughts of the man in Russia.
Every time she came out of Wang Rui's house, she would always cry on the way back to school.
Being with a man, but thinking about another man in her heart, this was undoubtedly a kind of sorrow and pain. She couldn't get rid of the deep guilt of Sun Guowei meeting another man behind his back, and she couldn't get rid of the guilt of Wang Rui meeting him but thinking about another man. The two forces were clearly pulling her in two opposite directions, almost tearing her apart. She could only be miserably defeated and reflect on herself in a sorry state.
After the Spring Festival, when the second semester began, Ding Nan's life became a problem. After the National Normal University followed the country's graduate student enrollment policy, the vast majority of graduate students did not receive subsidies. She could not ask her parents for support like Zhang Lili and the others who were unmarried. Ever since she went to graduate school, she had resigned from her full-time job at the magazine company. There were many courses in the first year of graduate school. It was said that her supervisor did not approve of them working part-time outside and wanted them to study wholeheartedly. In this way, she did not have the energy and did not dare to work part-time. During the divorce, Lu Bo said that he didn't make any money from starting a company, so he gave her tens of thousands of yuan. He said that it would be her son's living expenses for the next few years, and she would give it all to the parents who helped her take care of the child. The little savings from work had paid for the tuition fees and bought a computer to cover the expenses of the last semester. He was almost out of money.
After thinking about it for a week, Ding Nan called Lu Bo to negotiate. He asked him to pay her a few more years of child support in advance. That way, after she graduated, he would not have to care about his son anymore. Lu Bo agreed. However, when she called him again, he did not pick up the phone anymore. She was so angry that she cursed him for being a " scoundrel with no credit." Two weeks later, she changed her phone number and did not tell him.
On this day, Zhang Lili and Li Ying weren't around. Ding Nan and Wang Han sat at their own tables and talked about their part-time jobs. Wang Han had also worked before she went to graduate school. After she went to graduate school, she wanted to continue to be independent.
"I asked the senior sister from the previous batch. She said that the boss really doesn't like us working part-time. She said that three years will pass in a flash and wants us to focus on our studies. I'm also worried." Wang Han told Ding Nan. They had the same tutor and the same major. They were living in different majors at the National Normal University. It was really a very lucky thing for the two of them to be assigned to the same room.
"Boss? Was he talking about Director Zhu? Since when did he call his mentor 'boss'? This is the first time I've heard of it." Ding Nan asked curiously when she heard her talking about the boss.
"Then you're out. It's popular to call you that now because graduate students are cheap labor for instructors.”Wang Han said.
"I've really learned. Then what should he do? She doesn't like us working part-time. If we do it secretly, won't she be unhappy?”Ding Nan asked her. He turned around and took the professional book he read last night from the bed above. He sat down in front of the table and chair below and flipped through a few pages. Ding Nan was surprised when she saw this combination bed with a table on top, a wardrobe on the bottom, and a shoe cabinet on the side on the first day she entered the dormitory. Compared to the bunk bed she had in university, this was much more advanced. After graduating from university and leaving the campus for many years, Ding Nan felt like she was Grandma Liu who had entered the Grand View Garden. She was curious about everything. This kind of curiosity was probably not inferior to Sun Guowei, who had just arrived in Russia. When she thought of Sun Guowei, her expression darkened and she sighed.
"Why are you sighing? It's fine. She just said that she doesn't want us to do it. She didn't explicitly forbid it. We'll tell her about our situation and she'll understand. It's a woman's nature to be kind."
"Do you have anything good to do at the moment? My university classmate introduced me to help his colleague write a thesis for a professional title evaluation. The price was good, but I didn't dare to take it. Just thinking about writing a thesis made me afraid. It wasn't an easy job.”
"Writing a thesis is indeed a hard job. Not everyone can write it. It's not that easy to earn money. I heard that our school's adult education department needs a substitute teacher.”
"Then what should we tell Director Zhu? Why don't you go and tell him? I'm scared when I see her." Ding Nan said that she was still not used to calling her mentor 'boss'. It was awkward, and she felt weird just thinking about it.
"Actually, it's all the same. I'm afraid of her too. None of the senior sisters in my previous batch were afraid of her. We've been together for so long, but they still tremble in fear when they see her. It's fine. I'll go and tell him then."
"You're so brave! Thank you." Ding Nan praised sincerely and finally felt at ease.
Unexpectedly, Director Zhu, who seemed to be serious, agreed to them very readily. He only reminded them to make good use of their time and not lose more than they gain. In the end, he sighed and said,"Three years have passed in the blink of an eye." This was Director Zhu's favorite warning to his students.
The moment Wang Han entered the dormitory, she told Ding Nan about her meeting with Director Zhu, especially her classic line," Three years have passed in a flash." Both of them had heavy expressions. However, studying was more important than eating. Soon, the two of them successfully became substitute teachers in the adult education department. One taught art appreciation, and the other taught the history of Chinese arts and crafts. They taught half a day every weekend. Their income was enough for their living expenses.
Not long after, Director Zhu personally introduced Ding Nan to a part-time job as an assistant to Teacher Zhao, an old researcher at the art academy next to the National Normal University. Ding Nan was naturally grateful. In his heart, he said that Director Zhu was really cold on the outside but warm on the inside.
The summer vacation was coming. Ding Nan's heart was filled with anticipation and joy when she thought that she could go home to see her son and see Sun Guowei again after a long separation. She stood on the simple scale in the dormitory and weighed herself. She realized that she was about five pounds heavier than before, so she wanted to lose weight as soon as possible. Otherwise, she wouldn't be confident in front of him. It was said that a woman's appearance was for the person who liked her. This was really a woman's sorrow.
Two weeks after Ding Nan changed to eating two cucumbers and one tomato every night, Sun Guowei wrote to tell her that their three-year application to study in Russia had been reduced to two years. The schools on both sides had approved it, and he would not be coming back for the only summer vacation. He wanted to have fun with his colleagues all over Russia. Ding Nan's cucumber rolled from the table to the ground with a thud. She was too lazy to pick it up. The next night, she started eating again.
In that reply, she only wrote one sentence," I almost forgot what you look like.”
Soon, Sun Guowei's reply came. She held it in her hand and felt that it was hard. It was more realistic than before. She opened it and saw a size photo. In front of a dark three-story building, he was wearing a military uniform and smiling at her valiantly.
Looking at him, a deep longing rose in her heart, mixed with indescribable confusion and helplessness. She sighed again.
That Friday night, Ding Nan was sitting in the dormitory preparing for the lesson for the students from the adult education department the next day when he suddenly received a call from Rong Xiaozhen. He first asked her how she was doing. After chatting for a while, he told her that he was married again. He was an elementary school teacher from his family. It had been more than two months since they got married, but he hadn't held a banquet yet. He wanted to treat everyone to a meal and get together. He wanted to inform her first and inform her when the time was set. Ding Nan was surprised and quickly said,"Congratulations! Congratulations! You're good!"
Who knew that after waiting for a month or two, she did not believe him and gradually forgot about it.
When the second year of postgraduate studies started, Ding Nan was still immersed in the melancholy of parting with his son. The little girl had grown up and understood the pain of parting more and more. For a week, he would call her many times a day. He kept calling and crying. Ding Nan also cried, and his heart ached.
This afternoon, she was alone in the dormitory. Just as she finished her son's call, she suddenly saw the QQ hidden in the lower right corner of the computer flashing. Someone was talking. She opened it and saw that it was Yajing.
"How have you been recently? I feel like I haven't contacted you in a long time." Ya Jing sent a message.
"It's alright. Well, it's been a few months since we last contacted each other. Everyone is so busy that they can't sit down, hehe. Are you guys alright?" Ding Nan quickly replied.
"Us? She had a daughter, just like her father. She was already two months old.”
"What? That was great! It's only been a year, and you've moved to a new house and added a daughter. Oh right, some time ago, Rong 'er said that he got married again and wanted to treat us to a meal. Later on, we didn't believe him. Do you know about this?"
"I know. He's about to get a divorce again, so he didn't invite us.”
"Ah? What happened?" Ding Nan typed the message in surprise and sent it over.
"Did you know that Rong 'er has made a fortune this year? Later on, he changed to a magazine agency, which was a core journal in the economic field. He worked as an editor and a manager. At his peak, he could earn more than 200,000 yuan a month. After a year, he earned quite a lot and bought a house in Yanjiao, Tongzhou. He now had three houses, a car, and a company.”Ya Jing sent a long message.
"Ah? There was such a thing? I've never heard him mention this."
"Maybe they're all men. They're closer to our Fang Yuan and talk more. At that time, they had also talked about cooperating, but it didn't work out in the end.”
"Oh, I see. Then what happened when he got married? Why are you getting a divorce again?"
"That primary school teacher is also from his family. His family introduced him. He resigned and followed Rong 'er to Beijing. Rong 'er had wanted to start a company with his friend. After he became rich, he registered his own company and opened two specialty stores in Beijing. He let his wife manage one of them and brought two employees with her. He said that his wife often did not do the accounts, and the accounts were messy. Once, when Sister Rong 'er was staying at his house, she accidentally found a money order of 5,000 yuan. It was sent to her parents by a primary school teacher.”
"And then?"
"Then, Rong 'er asked his wife what was going on. He heard that his wife refused to admit it again and went back to her parents' house in a fit of pique. She hasn't come back for a few months. The primary school teacher was previously unmarried and was born in the 1980s. She was a little young and insensible. Rong 'er felt that it was unreasonable for her to send money to her family behind his back. It was so boring for the couple to live like this. He was disheartened and did not want to redeem himself. It looks like we're really going to get a divorce again."
"It's not a big problem. What's wrong with the bride sending some money to her parents? Perhaps the key was her attitude, but it wasn't to the point of wanting a divorce, right? Is he addicted to divorce?" Ding Nan typed in confusion and sent it over.
"The two of them are ignoring each other now, so it's probably over. It was also to be blamed that this marriage was too rushed. The two of them had only known each other for less than two months before they registered their marriage. He said that he felt that the women in the big city were too sophisticated and that the ones brought from home were more simple and reliable, so he got married without worry. Who knew it would turn out like this?"
"How are his ex-wife and son? Are you still in contact?"
"I don't think we're in contact anymore. Every time she asked him about this, he didn't like to talk about it. He always said, why did she mention them?”
"Different relationships and different marriages will definitely face different problems. The key is how to manage and resolve them. If he was like this and did not reflect on himself and only avoided it, there would be problems in his marriage sooner or later.”
"Maybe I haven't met the right person.”
"Maybe. What was the right person? The right person was the person who was willing to solve the problem through negotiation, not the person who gave up, or the person who worked hard while the other person avoided or gave up. No matter how much two people loved each other, no matter how tacit their relationship was, it was impossible for them to always maintain the same interest and enthusiasm for each other. There would always be problems. If the right person was together, would there be no problems?”
"Yes, love and marriage are really difficult to explain in a few words. Perhaps no one knows right and wrong and is crossing the river by feeling the stones.”
Ya Jing went offline. Ding Nan's heart was heavy. She hoped that Rong Xiaozhen would not get divorced again. It was unbearable to get divorced again! We're just ordinary people who want to live an ordinary life. How can we endure it?
Ding Nan turned off her computer and was about to take a nap on the upper bunk when her phone rang. She saw that it was Sun Yan and picked it up. At the moment of the call, she felt that Sun Yan's voice had changed a little. She heard Sun Yan say,"Honey, I'm going crazy. My boyfriend called the police.”
