Lu Zhishu didn't say anything, but squatted down and tried to touch Chen Pan's calf.
Shen Pan took a half step back in reaction, "What?"
"Don't you have a leg cramp?" Lu Zhishu looked up and asked.
The bangs on his forehead were very long, covering his eyes. Although Shen Pan could not see his eyes, he still felt a little flustered and didn't know where to look.
"No, I'll just take it easy," Chen Pan squeezed Zhou Mo's hand tightly, "Let's go."
Zhou Mo: "Yeah."
She took Chen Pan to a rest area where they could buy drinks, and she ordered two cups of hot cocoa.
"Thank you," Shen Pan took the hot cocoa and said thank you.
"Are your legs still hurting? Why don't you go take a shower with some hot water?" Zhou Mo asked.
"No, I'm much better now," Shen Pan took a sip of hot cocoa, but his eyes looked in the direction where they had just come out of the deep water.
At this moment, there was no one there.
"It's so unlucky that I run into him when I'm out playing," Chen Pan complained.
"Look at the way he's dressed... he doesn't look like he's here on vacation," Zhou Mo said.
"I can tell at a glance that he's probably here to meet some client and discuss business," Chen Pan said. "Green Island is not small. How could we have such a coincidence to run into him?"
Zhou Mo thought for a moment, "It shouldn't be a chance encounter. Did he follow me here?"
Chen Pan suddenly realized: "Yes! Now that you put it that way, I understand. That broken lamp must have been given by him as well."
"That's thoughtful of you," Zhou Mo said.
Chen Pan gnashed his teeth in hatred, "What kind of heart does he have? If he had any heart, would I break up with him?"
Zhou Mo saw that Chen Pan was angry. Talking about Lu Zhishu would only make Chen Pan more irritated. She changed the subject and said, "Rest for a while. After you've rested, let's go swim in the shallow water for a while."
"Yeah." Chen Pan calmed down for a while. Seeing that Zhou Mo was too bored sitting here with her, she said, "You can go swimming first. You don't have to stay here with me."
"It's okay," Zhou Mo said.
"No need, I can just relax for a while."
Seeing Shen Pan like this, Zhou Mo didn't insist anymore and went to the shallow water alone.
Just as she reached the shallow water, a naughty little boy paddled out of the pool and the splashing water hit her legs.
The little boy looked at her, looking apologetic and bewildered, "I'm sorry, sister."
Zhou Mo didn't get angry. Instead, he quickly jumped into the water and gently splashed water at the little boy. "Saying sorry is useless."
Seeing that Zhou Mo was not angry and that he was splashed with water by Zhou Mo again, the little boy immediately fought back.
The two people started playing.
Zhou Mo didn't show any mercy just because she was an adult. The little boy couldn't open his eyes because of Zhou Mo's powerful attack. The water fell on his head, catching him off guard. "Sister, sister, I surrender, I surrender."
Zhou Mo immediately withdrew her hand and swam to the boy's side. "Hey boy, what's your name?"
The little boy was about eleven or twelve years old. He was playing in the water near the swimming pool with a swimming ring on and was just encountered by Zhou Mo.
"My name is Yang Haotian," said the little boy.
"Who did you come with?" Zhou Mo asked while chatting with him.
"My mom and dad," Yang Haotian pointed to the rest area not far away, "They went upstairs to drink water."
"Can you swim?" Zhou Mo asked.
"Yes," Yang Haotian nodded.
"Let's compare them?"
"ah?"
"Swim back and forth in this pool." Zhou Mo gestured twice.
Yang Haotian frowned, "Sister, you are an adult, and I am a child..."
The implication is that Zhou Mo is bullying others.
Zhou Mo didn't care at all whether she was bullying others by taking advantage of her age. She argued: "You are a man, and I am still a woman."
The little boy shook his head, "I don't want to compete."
Seeing that the child was not fooled, Zhou Mo stopped bullying him.
He stretched out his hand towards the shore, jumped lightly, and got on board.
Just as I was about to say goodbye to Xiao Yang, I looked up and accidentally saw a familiar person.
"Cheng Yuan?" she murmured.
Student Xiao Yang followed Zhou Mo's gaze and looked over. "That sister is so stupid. She has been practicing here for a long time, but she still hasn't learned to swim. There is an uncle who has been teaching her, but she still can't learn."
Zhou Mo raised his eyes and looked in the direction of Cheng Yuan, and saw Cheng Yuan sitting on the shore with his head down, as if waiting for someone.
"What uncle?" Zhou Mo asked Xiao Yang.
"There's just a tall, handsome uncle. He just left and will probably be back soon."
Upon hearing this, Zhou Mo guessed that the "uncle" Xiao Yang was talking about was probably Cheng Yuan's new boyfriend. They obviously came here to spend some time together as a couple, so he didn't feel comfortable going forward to say hello.
Cheng Yuan is also a girl with a miserable life. She has a congenital heart disease and only had palliative surgery when she was nine years old. The results of the surgery did not seem to be very ideal, and her health has always been poor.
When Cheng Yuan was ordered around by her mentor Gan Liyan and was admitted to the emergency room of the First Hospital of Dongda University due to overwork, Zhou Mo went to visit her.
At that time, not only was her body in a dilapidated state, but her mind was also tortured by Gan Liyan to the point of near collapse.
Zhou Mo wanted to comfort her, saying that the future was long, there were still many things she had not tried, and there were many things in this world worth her recollection, such as a book, a person, and a love affair.
Cheng Yuan, however, was disheartened. Because of her health condition, she said that she would never fall in love, let alone touch love in her life.
Zhou Mo was not a doctor, so she could not estimate how bad Cheng Yuan's physical condition was, but she had learned about Tetralogy of Fallot when she was in school. The incidence of this congenital heart disease in children was not low. The best age for surgery was around one year old, but Cheng Yuan did not have the surgery until she was nine years old. The prognosis was not very ideal, and she could die at any time.
How could she possibly pray for a relationship when she couldn't even guarantee her physical health?
Zhou Mo also felt that God was too unfair. Why did he let such a hardworking and kind girl suffer such hardship?
While Cheng Yuan was in the hospital, she happened to encounter a scholarship evaluation, but people said that she was able to get the scholarship because of the sympathy points given by the college. But the fact is, with Cheng Yuan's GPA and grades, she had no problem getting a first-class scholarship.
Cong Manrong brought a group of people from the west building to the Graduate Management Office to make trouble. Zhou Mo felt that they were unreasonable.
Cheng Yuan was so ill, and not only did they have no sympathy, they even added fuel to the fire and came to question whether the scholarship she received was reasonable.
Zhou Mo scolded them on the spot. In addition, the director of the Research Office was also there. Cheng Yuan's life was at stake and it had already attracted the attention of the college. Cong Manyong and the others were very dissatisfied with being scolded by Zhou Mo. The director of the Research Office was also angry and said that if they made trouble again, their qualifications for awards and honors would be revoked. Only then did Cong Manyong and the others give up.
Because of this, Cong Manyong and Zhou Mo became enemies.
When Chen Pan walked over, he saw Zhou Mo staring blankly at a place not far away.
"What are you looking at?"
"classmate."
"Why don't you go over and say hello?" Shen Pan asked.
"No, it's rare for her to have the life she has now, so it's better not to disturb her."
Shen Pan was puzzled: "Who is she?"
Zhou Mo recounted the story of his acquaintance with Cheng Yuan from beginning to end.
After hearing this, Shen Pan also said, "It's better not to disturb me."
"Sister, do you want to play again?" Xiao Yang suddenly asked.
