Chapter 584: One-third of the progress bar
"What? Professor Wen?" Ji Chunming was surprised.
Ye Rou looked at the photo again. The young man in the photo was wearing shabby clothes, had a thin body, and had dull hair. His face could not be seen clearly. The first impression she had of him was gloomy.
This person is actually Professor Wen when he was young?
He is not the same person as Wen Bojian, who is a gentle and elegant person in the eyes of today's students, well-dressed and with elegant features.
Luo Jitong said: "Wen Bo's family was not poor. His parents were both workers. He was the second of three sons. He was not loved by his parents, but he was smart and could read. He was noticed by Old Huang and was accepted as his student. He has been studying with Old Huang ever since."
He sighed, "The quiet kid back then has now become a professor at University A. Time is truly magical."
After hearing his sigh, Ye Rou pointed at the girl in the photo and asked curiously, "Who is this girl?"
A flash of disappointment flashed across Luo Jitong's eyes, although it was quick, Ye Rou still caught it sharply.
He said in a slightly dull voice, "She was Old Huang's proudest and favorite student. She had good grades, a distinguished family background, a lively and cheerful personality, and was popular in school. All the boys in school liked her."
"In terms of professional knowledge, Quince is inferior to her."
"Old Huang poured the most effort into her. She should have gone abroad. What a pity."
Ji Chunming listened to Dean Luo's praise and asked curiously, "Where is she now?"
Professor Huang is seriously ill, demented and unconscious. Professor Wen is taking care of the teacher. So where is his favorite female student?
Ye Rou held the photo and suddenly asked, "Is her last name Cheng?"
"Cheng?" Ji Chunming reacted and asked in surprise, "Cheng Hui? Professor Wen's wife!"
Luo Jitong snorted coldly, "It's her."
Ye Rou looked at the girl with a dazzling and beautiful smile in the photo, and couldn't connect her with Cheng Hui whom she had just seen.
Cheng Hui now looks gray and downcast, with thin hair and a dull and yellow face... If Ye Rou had not been observant and noticed the similarities in their facial features, no one would have believed that Cheng Hui was once so dazzling.
Ji Chunming sighed sincerely, "No wonder you said it was a pity for her."
After sighing, Ji Chunming asked in confusion, "Is she sick?"
Dean Luo, who always appeared to be a gentleman, said sarcastically, "She can't blame anyone for what she has become now."
Ye Rou keenly grasped the deep meaning in Dean Luo's words. Thinking that there was still two-thirds of the progress bar for eating melons, she knew that the key might lie with Cheng Hui.
"Dean Luo, can you tell me what happened to her back then?" Ye Rou pleaded.
Luo Jitong didn't want to mention these unhappy things, but he glanced at Ye Rou.
Same age, same beautiful girl, same amazing talent, same bright future...
Luo Jitong didn't want Ye Rou to follow Cheng Hui's old path, so he didn't refuse. Instead, he asked the two to sit down at the tea table and told them the story of that year.
At that time, the college entrance examination had not been abolished yet. Cheng Hui was the student with the highest score in the history of the Chinese Department. In addition, she was beautiful, so she received a lot of attention as soon as she entered the school.
The gift of photographic memory she displayed during the learning process made Professor Huang feel like he had found a treasure. He took her by his side and taught her carefully.
Cheng Hui is also very hardworking. Although she is only a freshman, her articles have been accepted by many major newspapers. She can support herself by writing alone.
She loves dressing up, is not a dull person, loves making friends, and is especially good at dancing. Whenever there is a dance at University A, she will definitely be there.
Wen Bo is the complete opposite of her. He is dull and likes to be alone. He never goes to any dances and won't even go to crowded places.
The two students had very different personalities and often quarreled. When Lao Huang talked about this with him, he felt both happy and depressed.
But everyone has selfish desires, including Lao Huang.
Quince is smart, but the articles he writes are very formal.
Although Cheng Hui is a girl, her writing is elegant, her overall view is grand, and she is particularly talented.
Lao Huang prefers Cheng Hui's articles.
He had a quota for overseas exchange at the time, and he seriously considered two students.
Wen Bo has a dull personality, doesn't like making friends, and his family is not as wealthy as Cheng Hui's.
Cheng Hui is good at socializing. If she goes abroad and changes to a new environment, she will feel like a fish in water. Lao Huang wants to help her fly.
In the end, Old Huang added Cheng Hui to the list of students eligible to study abroad.
Everything was ready, but on the day of leaving the country, Cheng Hui suddenly disappeared.
Old Huang begged the boat to wait a little longer. Half an hour after the stipulated time, Cheng Hui did not arrive, so the boat left with other students going abroad for exchange.
Just when everyone thought that Cheng Hui had an accident, she came to school again the next day, this time to drop out.
Old Huang didn't understand and tried his best to keep him.
However, Cheng Hui resolutely went through the procedures to drop out of school. Lao Huang chased her out, stopped Cheng Hui and asked her why she wanted to drop out of school.
Under Lao Huang's repeated questioning, Cheng Hui said that she was going to get married and that studying was useless. The most important thing for a woman in her life was to find a good man. She had already found one and didn't want to waste time on her studies...
When Luo Jitong said this, his tone was filled with uncontrollable disappointment.
Ji Chunming sensed something was wrong and asked, "Is she marrying Professor Wen?"
Luo Jitong shook his head.
"Wen Bo is her second husband. Cheng Hui's first husband was arranged for her by her family when she was young. His family was also very wealthy."
Ji Chunming was puzzled: "What happened next..."
"Alas," Luo Jitong sighed, "Her fiancé's family background is not good, and some are dead or scattered."
"Cheng Hui should have been sent to the bullpen, but it was Old Huang who saved her." Luo Jitong said this with a hint of hatred in his voice, "If he hadn't saved her, Old Huang wouldn't have encountered what happened later."
People were very sensitive to these things at that time. Cheng Hui's family background was not good, and the person she married also had a bad background, which implicated Lao Huang. As a result, he was also fired and even sent to the cowshed.
"In the end, it was Wen Bo who stepped forward, took in Old Huang, and married Cheng Hui, which saved the two of them."
Luo Jitong exclaimed, "Don't underestimate Wen Bo's dull personality. But when everyone was avoiding him, he was the only one who stood up. Over the years, Old Huang's illness has become more and more serious, and all the money from this child has been used for Old Huang's treatment, but he has never complained, and he is also good to Cheng Hui."
"Quinbo is Lao Huang's best student."
After listening to this story, Ye Rou opened the system panel and saw that the melon-eating progress bar had risen by another one-third.
But there is still a third.
Dean Luo has said everything clearly, but the system still determines that he has not succeeded in eating the melon. Is there any hidden secret behind what happened back then?
Ye Rou had a feeling that if she wanted to know the whole story of what happened back then, she had to find Cheng Hui.
Thinking of this, Ye Rou asked, "What disease does Professor Huang have?"
"His lover hanged herself, which greatly shocked him. He became crazy afterwards, and his condition has become increasingly serious over the years." Luo Jitong felt sorry for his friend's experience, and he couldn't bear to see Wen Bo, a young man with a bright future, being dragged down by his friend.
He once suggested to Wen Bo that he should send Old Huang to a nursing home and he would pay for it.
But Wen Bo was afraid that the nursing home would not take good care of him and would bully his stupid teacher, so he disagreed.
Luo Jitong sighed that his old friend was thoughtful, so he had to visit him at a fixed time every month. There was nothing else he could do.
Ye Rou touched her chin and suddenly said, "Maybe I have a way to cure Professor Huang's illness."
Luo Jitong's eyes lit up.
yes!
Just because Western medicine can’t help doesn’t mean Chinese medicine has no solution!
"That's great." Luo Jitong stood up and said excitedly, "Classmate Ye, will you come with me to see Old Huang?"
Ye Rou immediately smiled and agreed, "Okay, today is the best day to do it. I don't have classes this afternoon."
Ji Chunming looked at Ye Rou strangely. Why did he always feel that this little girl was up to some bad idea?
Don't think he doesn't know who injured Wen Bo.
