My Mysterious Husband

Chapter 150 He called her name in a dream (3)

"How am I going to explain Xinyou’s disappearance to others?" Venus thought.

"I can tell them that Xinyou is home taking care of her parents. But what if her parents find out?" Venusdidn't dare to think about it any further. Xinyou’s death would always be known.

Although she wasn't the murderer, Xinyou's death did have something to do with her. How would sheexplain all this then?

"Don't think about it. I'll take care of it." Kerry came to her side and handed her a tissue.

As he watched her cry, his heart softened and then he took her into his arms.

"Don't cry. It’s going to be okay." He stroked her long hair and whispered.

Venus cried on his shoulder for a moment, and then she wiped her tears.

"Kerry, don't pretend to care about me." Venus said suddenly. “Just leave me alone.”

Kerry was speechless.

......

The school is full of full of youthful spirit. People are vigorous and dynamic. When Venus came backschool, she was in a good mood.

She went to the guidance counselor's office. Mrs. Xiaohua was very happy when she saw Venus.

"Are you here alone? Where's Xinyou?" she asked.

"Her father isn't well, so she went home to take care of her parents." Venus told this lie again.

Mrs. Xiaohua didn't suspect anything after hearing it, and gave her a file, smiling, "You should read thisfirst."

Venus opened the file and skimmed through it roughly. It was a file about exchange students, and theother school was a famous university in Paris.

"The school now has ten exchange student places. You and Xinyou are the best in our academy thisyear. If you're willing, you can go to France to further your studies for two years." Mrs. Xiaohua saidhppily.

Venus was pleasantly surprised and said excitedly, "I get the chance?"

Mrs. Xiaohua was quite proud and said, "Of course, you are the talented girl of our design school, andyou are the first in every exam. If you go out and see the world, it’ll be very helpful in your career."

"I know." Venus was so happy, but then she thought about Kerry. He would never agree to her leavingthe country. Venus was a little sad.

Mrs. Xiaohua saw her face change and asked, "What's wrong?"

"I ...... you know I'm married, so ......" said Venus awkwardly, "I'll have to talk to my husband about that."

Mrs. Xiaohua patted her hand and said, "It is something you should discuss. This is a rare opportunity.You should consider it carefully."

"Thank you, Mrs. Xiaohua." said Venus. “I will.”

"There are a lot of people fighting for this chance in the school now. I can only give you three days.Take this file back and discuss it with your family."

After leaving Mr. Xiaohua's office, Venus didn't go back to work right away, but strolled around thecampus.

It had been a long time since she'd been to school. The library, classrooms, and dormitories all hadfond memories of her.

She had cheered on seniors on the basketball court with her friends. She had also come to run everynight for a few days in order to run 800 meters on the green track.

This campus holds all her happy memories. If time had remained frozen on campus, she wouldn't haveto suffer the pain of betrayal.

Venus sat on the bleachers all afternoon, reading that file over and over again. She really wanted to goabroad for further education, but the reality simply wouldn't allow her to do it.

Kerry wouldn't necessarily approve of her going abroad. Besides, she couldn't afford the tuition andliving expenses alone.

"Venus…" an unfamiliar voice sounded.

Venus turned back, and a not very familiar but gentle face appeared in front of her.

"Is it really you? I thought I had the wrong person." A man said. He was a little surprised.

Venus remembered that he was a schoolmate who was one year senior to her grade. He had pursuedher in her sophomore year, but she rejected him. In his junior year he had an accident and Venushadn't heard from him since.novelbin

Venus recognized him and said, "Hello, long time no see."

"You still remember me?" The man sat down next to her.

"You're famous in school of foreign languages." Venus teased.

"But you still don't like me." he looked at her seriously and said.

"Let's not talk about the past." Venus was a little embarrassed.

"You're graduating soon, aren't you?" asked he.

Venus nodded, "Yes. What are you doing now?" Venus was afraid that he would ask more about her,so she changed the topic quickly.
