Chapter 19 Simulated Course for University Students (Part 8)
Back at school, the two were very affectionate. Once their feelings were in place, everything fell into place naturally. Before they knew it, they ended up at a hotel, doing things that would make her father chop Lu Ze up.

After glancing at the bed sheet, Lu Ze went downstairs, bought a pair of scissors, and neatly cut off the piece of fabric. Then, the two of them left the hotel like thieves.

When you're young, you always do some outrageous things, and they were no exception.

This incident actually has both advantages and disadvantages. First, Lu Ze's personal safety is definitely in a slight danger. No father would remain indifferent if he knew that the beautiful cabbage he had cultivated for so many years had been eaten by a pig.

The second point is that it will make her feel insecure and anxious, just like a normal girl, wondering if the other person will become cold or change their mind if they take away her most precious thing.
There are favorable circumstances as well. Now that things have come to this point, she will devote herself even more wholeheartedly to this relationship. After all, she has staked everything on this and can't afford to lose.

This is why many girls can't forget their first love, even after they've broken up. Of course, whether they still like or hate him is another matter.

Lu Ze didn't know why he turned into a wolf that night, but it's not surprising that a young man in his early twenties with good physical strength would be driven by lust. However, the next day, he felt pressure and seemed to be carrying a lot more burdens.

And so, the two began their inseparable second semester of sophomore year, living a very happy life together.

Lu Ze would give her some gifts every month, such as snacks, cosmetics, or other random things.

She wasn't the kind of shameless person who would only accept gifts and never give anything back. She used her saved allowance to buy clothes, ties, shoes, and even knitted a scarf by hand, which Lu Ze treasured so much that he was reluctant to wear it.

After that, they moved out together, just like the second brother, leaving the dormitory and starting a sweet life together.

Living together can expose many of your spouse's problems. You might even find that the clean and tidy person you remember comes home with underwear and smelly socks flying everywhere.

She wasn't that filthy, but she liked to leave things lying around, which meant she couldn't find them when she needed them. She also liked to eat potato chips, so naturally some crumbs would fall on the ground and be stepped on by Lu Ze.

However, it wasn't unbearable. At least Lu Ze was quite happy tidying up the house. It felt like he had a home. The noise and commotion were actually quite cozy.

A month after the start of the semester was her birthday. Lu Ze went all out that time, treating his roommate and her roommate to dinner, and then went to a karaoke bar, which was the first time he had ever been there. He sang a song while drunk, and although it was a bit dry, it wasn't too off-key.

But after that day, she began to make changes.

Romance is about the emotions associated with consumption; love is about the everyday necessities of life.

She started accompanying Lu Ze to the building materials market, then used her skills to create a spreadsheet to record the price fluctuations of building materials. She also read some architecture books and learned cost estimation under Lu Ze's guidance.

In this way, Lu Ze only needed to be responsible for drawing, and sometimes needed to go to the client's home to take measurements. She was responsible for all other work, which greatly increased the speed. Lu Ze also had time to take on more orders, and his income increased.

He learned to drive at the end of last semester and has now obtained his license. Afterwards, the two of them bought a car, spending all their savings to purchase an Accord. They finally had their first car of their own.

They took a road trip during the National Day holiday, which was their first time traveling together. However, it was not a pleasant trip because they were stuck in traffic on the highway for two days. When they arrived at their destination, they didn't see any scenery but were surrounded by tourists like dumplings being dropped into a pot.

They became the envy of everyone who knew them, because while others were struggling to make ends meet and buy gifts for their partners, the two of them didn't have such a heavy financial burden. They didn't spend their parents' money to enjoy their relationship, and they were even preparing to buy a house and settle down in the capital.

By the second semester of their junior year, the two had almost saved enough for a down payment on a house.

At this time, Lu Ze had become quite famous in the interior design circle in the capital city due to his extremely high customer satisfaction and fashionable design concepts. He was called a big shot by a group of newbies, and even some of his little fans were professional designers who had been working for several years.

He started posting his favorite designs on interior design websites as his showrooms, and each design received over a thousand likes and hundreds of comments.

In this internet age, even people who have bought a house but haven't renovated it will browse decoration websites to look around with envy, and then be amazed by Lu Ze's model rooms. They will learn Lu Ze's contact information from the watermarks on the pictures, and then start negotiating prices.

To put it a bit arrogantly, he's now uninterested in designing houses smaller than 120 square meters, and his design fees are already calculated per square meter, reaching 50 yuan per square meter. Numerous design companies have contacted him, offering him jobs at their decoration companies after his junior year, some even offering a high annual salary of 500,000 yuan, skipping the internship stage and becoming a top-tier, flagship designer.

Lu Ze did not refuse, but was considering which decoration company to choose.

She's been acting strangely lately, often feeling down. She's been clinging to Lu Ze every day, hugging and kissing him constantly, and even inexplicably bursting into tears. Lu Ze is very worried and has even pressed her to reveal the reason for her distress.

Her parents wanted her to study abroad and leave after her junior year.

This is a cliché that has been overused in TV dramas, but this situation just happened to happen between the two of them.

Lu Ze was furious and questioned her about why she hadn't spoken up sooner. The two had a big argument. No, it wasn't Lu Ze who was venting his anger; she just sat on the sofa, silently wiping away her tears.

He quickly calmed down, but he couldn't accept the reality. He wanted to change things, so he bought two plane tickets to Sichuan Province to meet her parents.

This was his first visit. After entering the house, he pointed out many flaws in the decorations, but he also had to admit that the family was very well-off.

The designer only needs to visit their home once to get a general idea of ​​how much money they have, which explains why she has five or six thousand yuan of pocket money every month.

The visit was somewhat abrupt, and her father's expression was not very pleasant, but her mother showed a slight smile and invited Lu Ze to have some fruit.

They were quite wealthy, but when it came to marrying off their daughter, they still considered the social standing of the family. So he subtly inquired about Lu Ze's family background, and both of their faces darkened.

She explained Lu Ze's current job and achievements, which improved her parents' expressions somewhat, at least they knew that this young man was capable of supporting his wife.

Afterwards, Lu Ze had a meal at their house and drank a couple of cups with her father. His clients were mostly wealthy people, so this meal was meant to make her father happy, and for the first time, he showed a smile at the dinner table.

Lu Ze then learned about her family situation. Her family was worth tens of millions, making them a wealthy family. They were also in the same industry as Lu Ze, as they were in the construction business and also owned a furniture factory. Their economic strength was not vastly different from Lu Ze's, the only difference being the time they had been together.

Then Lu Ze started talking about her plans to study abroad. She got a little nervous and squeezed Lu Ze's hand tightly under the table.

Her parents didn't show any overbearing expressions or tone. They seemed to be comforting Lu Ze, saying things like, "If the two of you really want to get along, a few years won't make a difference," and "If love between two people lasts forever, why should they be together every day?"

Lu Ze knew in his heart that his parents still didn't like him. They were killing him with a soft knife. They knew he understood what they meant, so they put the knife to their daughter's neck.

Lu Ze observed her expression. She seemed hesitant because of what her parents had said, and she secretly looked at Lu Ze, hoping to get his opinion.

Lu Ze understood that he needed to fight for his love now, so his next words left everyone present stunned for a long time.

“She should go. She shouldn’t give up the opportunity to continue improving herself, and neither should I.”

Lu Ze gave up a job with an annual salary of 500,000 yuan, a house he had fallen in love with, and everything in China. He planned to leave with her.

As for IELTS and TOEFL, he took them a long time ago when he had nothing better to do. He got 8 on IELTS and 112 on TOEFL.

His excellence remains unchanged.
