I'm back in 1990

Chapter 988: Divergence

Tang Jianhua has only had this one girl in his life, and he has cherished her since she was a child. In addition, she is sensible and ambitious, so he has never had any worries since she was a child.

He knows his daughter best. Although she has always been a well-behaved girl, she is actually very decisive. Tang Jianhua knew that one day his daughter would make her own decisions. He just didn't expect that day to come so soon.

So, when it comes to choosing a university, they're already unwilling to follow their parents' arrangements.

Tang Jianhua had never laid a finger on his daughter since she was a child, so he could only patiently persuade her: "Darling, you must know that Shanghai University ranks higher than Jinling University among domestic universities, and Shanghai University is willing to admit you. You can choose your major. Isn't that great?"

Tang Ruixuan remained silent. She knew in her heart that no matter how many points she scored, her parents would only let her apply to universities in Shanghai. She wanted to be independent and have her own space, so this time she had to fight to the end. Besides, with her uncle as her backer, she didn't have to worry about anything.

The family of three remained deadlocked, with no one able to convince the others.

A short while later, Zeng Xia arrived.

"Auntie!" Tang Ruixuan greeted Zeng Xia as she went to open the door.

"Oh, you're home. I thought you went out with your classmates," Zeng Xia said to Tang Ruixuan as she changed her shoes.

Upon seeing Zeng Xia, Zeng Hong greeted her and asked, "Little sister, what brings you here?"

Zeng Xia pointed to Tang Ruixuan: "Xuanxuan's college entrance exam results came out, right? I came to see her and plan to take her out to buy some clothes. She's such a pretty girl, she doesn't have many clothes. I'll buy her a lot this time as a gift from me."

Tang Ruixuan wore school uniforms throughout junior and senior high school, and rarely had the opportunity to wear other clothes. So even though Tang Ruixuan's family was well-off, she didn't have many clothes. Firstly, the girl was growing rapidly, and her body was changing quickly. Secondly, Zeng Hong planned to buy her more clothes after she was admitted to university. Therefore, Zeng Hong hadn't bought many clothes for her daughter before.

"Oh, brother-in-law is home too? Why didn't you go to the company today?" Zeng Xia felt a little strange seeing Tang Jianhua at home. She knew Tang Jianhua well; he devoted all his attention to his catering company and would never be home at this time of day.

Tang Jianhua offered her a seat while explaining the reason to his sister-in-law: "We were just discussing Xuanxuan's college application at home!"

"Yes, yes, this is a big deal," Zeng Xia agreed wholeheartedly.

Hearing this, Zeng Hong was furious: "That brat just won't listen to us, she just won't apply to a local university."

"Why?" Zeng Xia asked, looking at Tang Ruixuan with a surprised expression.

Her older sister, Zeng Hong, had already called her, so she knew how many points Tang Ruixuan had scored. When she learned of Tang Ruixuan's college entrance examination score, she was both happy and jealous.

I'm happy that my niece got into a top university in China, but I'm also jealous that it wasn't my own daughter. There's no harm in comparison; my own precious daughter is just a poor student.

Why? Of course, it's to be away from my parents.

Of course, Tang Ruixuan would never say this aloud, otherwise it would hurt her parents' feelings too much.

"The main reason is that Jinling University has the major I want to study. I plan to study artificial intelligence. I have looked into it and found that Jinling University's ranking in artificial intelligence is second only to Tsinghua University in China. Since they won't let me apply to Tsinghua University, I can only apply to Jinling University. Besides, Jinling University is not far from home. There are dozens or even hundreds of trains every day. If I want to come back on the weekend, I can just buy a ticket and come back."

Zeng Hong immediately jumped up to object: "No way, what's with all this talk about artificial intelligence? It's best for a girl to study accounting or finance, that's the most practical. Besides, our family's financial situation is what it is. We don't expect you to work hard to support yourself. After you graduate from university, you can just find a job or go directly to your dad's company to manage the finances."

Tang Ruixuan didn't like hearing these words; her head was buzzing from her mother's nagging.

Zeng Xia naturally sided with her sister: "Xuanxuan, your mother is right. You're their only child, and you've never left their side before. They're bound to worry about you going to school so far away all by yourself!"

Tang Ruixuan was speechless. The two places were only a little over 200 kilometers apart, but in the eyes of her parents and aunt, it seemed as far away as they could not reach. The more they thought about it, the more determined she became to do things her own way.

Since we can't reach an agreement with our parents anyway, let's put the dispute aside for now to avoid escalating the conflict and making the whole family unhappy.

Zeng Xia then remembered the purpose of her visit: "Oh right, I almost forgot about that. Let's go buy some clothes first, and you should also get a new phone. Auntie will also buy you the best laptop." It seems that Zeng Xia is planning to buy Tang Ruixuan everything from head to toe this time.

Seeing her younger sister looking like she was about to go on a shopping spree, Zeng Hong quickly stopped her, saying, "Don't buy her so much, just a few clothes will do."

Zeng Xia picked up her limited edition Hermes bag and struck a pose that left no room for refusal: "Alright, it's none of your business. Xuanxuan did so well on the exam this time, and I'm happy as her aunt. Besides, it won't cost much money."

She then asked Zeng Hong, "Are you going? If you're free, you can come with us."

Tang Jianhua urged his wife, "Why don't you go with her too?" Tang Jianhua's idea was that if Zeng Hong went with her, Zeng Xia could spend less money. He knew what kind of person his sister-in-law was; she was extravagant with money. If no one stopped her, there might be a lot more stuff in the house by nightfall.

Seeing this, Zeng Hong agreed: "Okay, I'll go too. I haven't been out in a long time, so let's go for a stroll together."

Zeng Xia drove Zeng Hong and her daughter straight to Henglong Plaza.

As she drove, she said to Tang Ruixuan, "Today we're going to Henglong Plaza. Several brands have new arrivals, so I'll take you to try them out."

"Okay!" Tang Ruixuan knew her aunt's habits, so she didn't refuse outright. However, she had already made up her mind that whether she liked it or not, and whether it looked good or not, was up to her.

In short, we shouldn't let my aunt spend too much money.

In fact, Tang Ruixuan wasn't very interested in big brand clothes and shoes. From a young age, she was a pragmatist. As long as clothes were comfortable and looked good, that was enough for her. So she didn't have much desire for clothes, food, or drinks. She focused most of her energy on studying and the things she liked.
