Chapter 313

Bi Yan said, "It must be Su Zhe's fault!"

Jiang Zhu asked cautiously, "Did you two fight?"

Zhu Peng shook her head. "He proposed to me."

"Huh???" Bi Yan exclaimed in surprise.

Shen Baili's hand paused as she offered Zhu Peng a tissue. Something occurred to Bi Yan. "Aren't you going abroad to study?"

Zhu Peng had finally secured a government-sponsored opportunity to study abroad, with a full scholarship covering tuition and living expenses. It was a once-in-a-lifetime chance.

To secure that spot, Zhu Peng had left early and returned late every day, even putting her part-time work on hold.

Shen Baili asked, "If you get married, will you still go abroad?"

Zhu Peng said, "Not this year, at least."

"Su Zhe's grandfather is sick. He wants to see his grandson settle down soon. Su Zhe is very devoted to him and doesn't want him to have any regrets..."

Su Zhe wanted Zhu Peng to find a stable job in Capital City, either as a civil servant or a teacher, so they could build a home together...

Zhu Peng had dreamed of a future with Su Zhe. They would get married, but definitely not now. She wanted to continue her education. If she missed this chance, who knew how long she would have to wait for another?

"Su Zhe is a Capital City local. His family has prepared a home for us to live in after we marry. It's not far from Q University..."

"I told him I needed to think about it." Zhu Peng had hesitated.

She couldn't bear to give up either the man she loved or her future.

Zhu Peng wanted to hold on to both. She had discussed her plans seriously with Su Zhe. They could get married first, but she still wouldn't give up studying
