Chapter 72 A Toast to the Past



In the early stages, Shi Dingyan was sufficient to help Wang Xiaojuan regulate her body; Gao Wenyuan would only intervene when the toxins were completely eliminated.

This is what Shi Dingyan told Shen Qian at the Tower of Babel that day. In order to make it easier for his parents to accept, Shi Dingyan also said that he would pretend to be a medical professor.

Shen Qian hadn't expected Shi Dingyan to fulfill his promise so quickly...

Third Senior Brother is reliable!

"The doctors at the hospital said that the spread of toxins in your mother's body has been completely stopped. Even if the toxins are not completely eliminated later, her lifespan will be greatly extended."

Shen Liang's face was full of sighs, but his eyes held a sense of relief.

"Over the years, I've been a burden to you and your son..."

As Wang Xiaojuan spoke, tears began to stream down her face again.

"What nonsense are you talking about!" Shen Liang scolded. "We're all family, we should weather the storm together, what's this talk of being a burden or not!"

This is the only time Dad can stand up for himself...

Shen Qian glanced at Shen Liang, feeling both touched and somewhat amused.

That night, Shen Qian didn't go anywhere. He sat obediently on the sofa and watched two episodes of the new drama with his parents. Of course, the plot was very boring, and Shen Qian didn't remember anything...

Apart from the popular actress who plays the female lead.

It's not that the other person's acting skills are particularly good, but rather because... it's very big.

As night fell, Shen Qian stood on the balcony, gazing at the starry sky (he thought these stars might be simulated by the weather system), listening to his parents next door whispering about their hopes for the future, and gradually drifted off into thought.

He didn't have extraordinary talent or exceptional intelligence. Unlike many others, Shen Qian realized he was just an ordinary person when he was in elementary school.

If you ask which specific day it was, it was probably the day he kept saying he wanted to go to summer camp but got beaten up by Shen Liang, and Wang Xiaojuan comforted him while wiping away tears.

Even just wanting to live a normal, ordinary life requires him to exert all his efforts.

Meeting Ding Yi was probably the only bright spot in his darkest years.

But Shen Qian also understood that if nothing changed, one day she would also leave.

He tried his best, he really tried his best...

No one can understand the guilt one feels when someone faints in class because of excessive physical training but lacks proper nutrition, and their parents are also reprimanded by the teacher.

No one can understand the bitterness of going to the physical testing center every day to work as a free laborer just to get a free look at the various instruments, only to accidentally overhear people pointing and whispering behind your back.

No one knows how unpleasant it is to be "supported by a girl with borrowed money".

Although Lao Wang and his friends always joked that they envied him, Shen Qian knew that even his best friend Wang Yangming might have looked down on him a little deep down.

But there's nothing to complain about.

Who in this world has a perfect life?

Father had it tough, and so did mother.

Old Wang's family was better off than mine, but his parents argued constantly, worrying themselves sick over his future. He had run away from home more than once.

Zhou Xu may seem carefree and easygoing, and his family is quite wealthy, but he has never experienced maternal love.

Before I went to the temple, I saw Lin Xiaoqian crying her eyes out in the woods after being scolded for reporting someone for cheating on an exam.

Liu Changqing was arrogant and domineering, but before the sinking that day, we discovered that his chest and calves were covered in scars, and perhaps there were even more on his body. What kind of past was that?

Grandpa Xu, who reads the newspaper all day, has only one taboo: he can't mention his wife.

Huo Ling'er chatted with Shen Qian without a care in the world, talking about everything from nail art to cats and dogs, and even the styles of underwear. However, she remained silent when the topic of her parents came up.

There was also my eighth senior sister, whom I had met before. She was a woman in the prime of her life who spent her days eating vegetarian food and worshipping Buddha. She must be either sick or had a story to tell.

All beings suffer.

But we hold onto hope.

This glass of wine is a toast to the past.

Shen Qian picked up the baijiu he had swiped from his father, raised it to the sky, and took a sip. But immediately, he spat it out with a "whoosh," cursing with a red face and thick neck, "It's fucking awful!"

...

"22 days until the college entrance examination!"

On Wednesday morning, I took a free public tram to school and glanced at the banner at the school gate before silently doing some calculations.

Last night he went to the Kyushu Martial Arts Hall again. Just two days later, after another test, his explosive power had broken through the 400 mark and reached 430 kg.

Similar to Shen Qian's previous estimate, his daily progress was around 30 kg, so theoretically he still had time to become a formal martial artist before the college entrance examination.

However, one cannot only focus on weightlifting; the study of humanities subjects should not be neglected, and the proficiency in basic martial arts skills also needs to be improved...

Thinking about it this way, the days ahead will still be fulfilling, which is great.

Entering Class 109, the mornings before self-study are always the noisiest... mainly from those students who are busy copying homework on the spot.

Shen Qian, who finished her homework while reviewing her textbooks every day, naturally didn't feel this pressure. She and Zhou Xu, who had no intention of handing in their homework, watched Wang Yangming, making Wang Yangming, who was frantically copying homework, feel quite resentful.

"They're here! They're really here!"

Suddenly, Zhang Liangwei rushed into the classroom, shouting as he ran.

"What's here?" Everyone was completely confused.

"The second round of early admissions for major universities is here!"

Zhang Liangwei couldn't wait to share, "I just saw Principal Huang greeting a group of people at the school gate. I found out they were from the admissions office of a martial arts college in Shanghai. Many schools sent people, and I heard that Shenwu College also sent people!"
