No one knows what Zhen's father said to Ji Yuzhi, but what is certain is that Zhen's father saw him off with a smile in the end.
Not long after Ji Yuzhi left, Zhen Tian, who should have been fast asleep, stirred, her breathing erratic, and she mumbled something. After a while, Zhen Tian calmed down again, her breathing gradually becoming steady.
the next day.
Zhen Tian, who was woken up by the alarm clock, lingered in bed for a long time.
She felt her head was spinning, as if some image flashed through her mind, vague and indistinct. She wasn't sure what it was.
"Ouch!" Zhen Tian clutched her neck. "Did I sleep in a stiff neck?"
She mumbled as she walked towards the bathroom. She vaguely remembered having a very long dream, but she couldn't recall the specifics at all.
When Zhen Tian came out of the room, Zhen's father glanced at the time.
"Why did you get up earlier than usual today? Did you know that Yuzhi was taking you to school today?"
"Huh? Zhizhi took me to school?" Zhen Tian ran over, looking around, "Where's Zhizhi?"
"Ding-dong ding-dong..."
"They're here. Go open the door." Father Zhen gestured with his chin.
Zhen Tian ran faster than a rabbit, and in a flash she reached the front gate. When she opened the door, there was Ji Yuzhi, dressed neatly.
"Zhizhi, good morning." She rushed over and hugged him.
"Good morning." Ji Yuzhi caught her, patted the back of her head with his hand, and then greeted Zhen Tian from behind, "Good morning, uncles and aunts."
Father Zhen carried out a bowl of rice: "Good morning, come in quickly."
Ji Yuzhi walked in, as if a little tail was following him. When he went to wash his hands, the little tail followed him to wash his hands. When he went to the kitchen, she followed him to the kitchen.
"Sit still, Tian Tian, and eat," Dad called out.
"Okay."
He readily agreed verbally, but then ran straight to the bedroom.
Where are you going?
Ji Yuzhi grabbed the rabbit tail at the back of her pajamas and pulled her back.
"I'm going to change my clothes."
"Let's eat first."
"profound."
Zhen Tian sat next to him, obediently picking up her chopsticks and biting into the fried dough stick that Ji Yuzhi had handed her, taking small bites.
"Why didn't you go to school today?" Zhen Tian asked him quietly.
“It’s not that I didn’t go, it’s that I was waiting for you to go together.” Ji Yuzhi put another braised egg in her bowl: “From now on, I’ll take you to school every morning.”
"Really?" Zhen Tian was so excited she almost fell off her chair, but Ji Yuzhi quickly pressed her back down.
"Why would I lie to you?" Ji Yuzhi picked up his cup and took a sip of soy milk. "Ask me the questions later, let's eat first."
While stealing glances at him, Zhen Tian quickly ate her food, wanting to ask him a question.
Ji Yuzhi wasn't blind; the little girl's actions were too obvious: "Eat slowly, or you'll have indigestion."
His lips kept curving upwards.
The idea of taking her to class was something I discussed with Mr. Zhen last night. He explained all his thoughts, and naturally, Mr. Zhen agreed.
With his grades, it's no exaggeration to say he could choose any school he wanted. So he skipped the extra morning self-study session in his senior year compared to his junior and senior years, hoping to make this little girl happier and give him more time to spend with her, even if it was just the journey to school.
Seeing Ji Yuzhi made Zhen Tian happy, but she didn't forget why she got up early.
She originally intended to go to the supermarket to buy some things, but when Zhen Tian checked the time, she realized she was running out of time. She turned around and ran to the study, taking a lot of her favorite foods from her snack shelf and putting them into a bag.
"What are you doing?" Ji Yuzhi leaned against the door frame, watching her movements.
“I was thinking about it yesterday, and I realized that eating is the happiest thing when you're unhappy. So I'm going to bring these to Qingyan and Yuanyuan.”
Zhen Tian looked very serious.
Ji Yuzhi's lips curled slightly, neither confirming nor denying.
This method works well for Zhen Tian because she's still a child. It might not work for her two friends, but it won't discourage them.
He took the bag from her hand: "Go change your clothes, I'll wait for you at the door."
In the past, it was always Zhen's father who drove Zhen Tian to school, but now Ji Yuzhi is also with them.
The car quickly arrived at the school gate. There were quite a few people driving their children to school, so Zhen Tian wasn't being conspicuous.
The senior and freshman grades were on opposite sides, one to the left and one to the right. Zhen Tian had things she wanted to do, so she didn't linger with Ji Yuzhi as usual, as if she wanted to go to class together. She waved goodbye to Ji Yuzhi cheerfully and carried her things to the classroom step by step.
Ji Yuzhi watched her figure disappear, then turned and walked to the other side.
When I arrived at the classroom, the bell for the end of morning self-study had just rung.
He bumped into Lu Yiran at the classroom door.
"You just arrived too?" Ji Yuzhi raised an eyebrow.
"Yes, I went and bought some books." Lu Yiran nodded.
These two could be described as exceptional individuals, the cream of the crop. They were deeply loved, even favored, by the principal and other teachers. Therefore, skipping class was tolerable in the eyes of the teachers.
Class 1 has always been the best among the science experimental classes, but these two have always been figures that everyone can only look up to.
It wasn't just because they consistently ranked among the top two in their class, but also among the top two in the provincial rankings. Moreover, they weren't just bookworms; they were multi-talented, bringing honor to the school in various competitions. More importantly, their faces were the kind that few could resist.
Ji Yuzhi glanced at the book in Lu Yiran's hand: "Respiratory Pathology? When did you become interested in studying medicine?"
"You should know I'm interested in everything." Lu Yiran didn't give him any face at all, pushed up his glasses and walked into the classroom.
Ji Yuzhi scoffed lightly, refusing to argue with him.
The science experimental class has very few students, only 28, of whom 23 are boys. Fewer girls mean fewer problems.
Therefore, even though the two of them are so outstanding, very few people bother them.
"You've arrived." The teacher greeted the two of them cheerfully as they entered.
After all, having raised two children like these, their teaching careers can be considered complete.
They nodded to the teacher and both returned to their seats.
The difference is that, because there are fewer people, everyone in this class has their own seat.
The first class was supposed to be English, but all the teachers in the school were called to a meeting. So everyone sat quietly in their seats doing their own thing.
Ji Yuzhi opened his English book and placed it in front of him, but this book wasn't a textbook; it was the Oxford Advanced Learner's English-Chinese Dictionary. Even open, it was still a thick volume.
For Ji Yuzhi, in English exams, as long as the teacher is not out of their mind, his score will be perfect.
