"Congratulations to Xiaoyu for passing the exam!" Four parents blew up their horns, and the plastic signs in their hands rattled loudly.
Zhen Tian joined in and clapped along.
"Thank you everyone." Ji Yuzhi clasped his hands together in gratitude.
"Come in and sit down. Your parents were so excited when they found out about your grades." Ji Yuzhi was surrounded by parents chatting about this and that.
Zhen Tian stood among her brothers and uncles: "Where are my eldest brother and third uncle?"
"My eldest brother has an operation that hasn't finished yet, and my third uncle is on the plane back," Lu Yiran explained.
"Oh, if only my younger brother and fourth brother were here." Zhen Tian felt a little nostalgic for the days when everyone was together when she was a child.
These days haven't been around since Fourth Brother Zhen Hong started learning sports. Now, Little Brother Lu Lin has also gone to play e-sports, making it difficult for everyone to get together.
Zhen Yan patted her head, offering silent comfort.
Even after Ji Yuzhi became the top scholar, his status at home did not rise at all. When everyone gathered for a meal, Ji Quanzhou and Liu Ye gave the child a sum of money as a reward, but that was all.
On the contrary, the school put up banners and posted the results list the very next day.
Ji Yuzhi's face and his grades were printed separately on a red cloth and displayed on the first fence to the left of the school gate. His photo was placed in the school's exhibition hall, where a large part of the space was dedicated to famous people and outstanding students who graduated from No. 1 High School.
All the students in the school knew Ji Yuzhi, including their parents.
While waiting for students to be dismissed from school, everyone stood in front of the college entrance examination results list and discussed it.
Because it attracted so much attention, Zhen Tian refused Ji Yu's offer to come upstairs to pick her up and instead waited for her in the car at the door.
Time flew by, and it was time for Ji Yuzhi to fill out his college application. The school was bustling with activity once again.
Ye Qingyan was not behaving properly in class and kept chatting with Zhen Tian.
Do you know which university Senior Ji applied to? I heard he received many calls from people vying to recruit him.
"I don't know," Zhen Tian shook her head.
"So, will you be studying in H City?"
"I……"
"Still don't know?" Ye Qingyan raised an eyebrow, her face full of speechlessness: "My little darling, how could you not know? That's your fiancé."
"no!"
"Alright, alright, let's not talk about whether he's my fiancé or not." Ye Qingyan was so anxious, it was like the emperor wasn't worried but the eunuch was: "Just think about it, if Ji Yuzhi hadn't gone to university in H City but went to a faraway city, recall his face, the aura of 'I'm so handsome and talented' that he exuded."
"Think about it again. Don't the girls in college wear such ugly school uniforms like we do? Those girls are all dressed up, wearing pretty skirts, high heels, and wearing exquisite makeup. They're also older than us, and they have so many seductive tricks up their sleeves."
"When Senior Ji enters university, it's like a little rabbit entering a wolf's den. So many girls are eyeing him covetously. Aren't you worried at all?"
"If Senior Ji changes his mind, you'll have nowhere to cry."
"I……"
Zhen Tian was interrupted by Ye Qingyan again: "What do you mean 'what ...
Ye Qingyan was utterly disappointed in him.
Zhen Tian was so disgusted by what she said that she felt like withdrawn. Just thinking about what she said and making connections made her feel terrible.
This gloomy mood lasted for many days.
Especially after learning that Ji Yuzhi applied without hesitation to the Capital University of Foreign Languages in S City.
Her mood plummeted.
Although Ji Yuzhi had often gone to S City for work before, this time was different. This time, he might never come back. He would only come home during winter and summer vacations, and he would definitely stay there to work after graduation.
And what about her?
What should she do?
She didn't want him to go, but what right did she have to prevent him from going to a better university to pursue his potential? She had always known he was just a person with goals.
Zhen Tian's mood worsened day by day, and her face became visibly thinner.
Unfortunately, this was the busiest time for Ji Yuzhi, as he was applying for and waiting for admissions. So even though he knew the girl was in a bad mood, he didn't have time to deal with it.
By the time he realized this wouldn't work, it was already July.
He had already received his acceptance letter, and everyone was happy for him, but she was hiding in a corner, silently lost in thought.
"Sweetie?" he called her softly.
"Hmm?" She raised her head and looked at him with wide eyes.
"What are you thinking about?" He sat down next to Zhen Tian.
Zhen Tian shook her head: "I wasn't thinking about anything. I'm just feeling a bit hot and uncomfortable, so I'm just spacing out for a while."
In reality, she didn't know what she was thinking; she just unconsciously spent most of her time daydreaming. Her mind was in a daze.
"Have you encountered any difficulties recently? Or is something bothering you?" He carefully chose his words, afraid of touching on the child's most painful feelings.
"No, I'm fine." Zhen Tian smiled, pursing her lips.
That smile was pale and powerless.
Ji Yuzhi always knew when to advance and retreat. Since she didn't want to talk about it, he would observe her little by little from other aspects.
The next day was Friday, and Ye Qingyan invited everyone to her house.
"I've invited you so many times, you can't not come." Ye Qingyan patted her backpack: "I've prepared some delicious food for you."
"good!"
"Okay!"
"Can."
The three of them agreed, leaving only Sweetie.
"Sweetie?" Ye Qingyan nudged her head.
"Huh?" She looked at Ye Qingyan blankly.
"Come to my house tomorrow, I'll send a driver to pick you up. Send me your address via WeChat!"
"Ah, oh, okay."
"You even have a personal driver? Wow, you must be some kind of wealthy family?" Yang Feiguang jokingly typed in his home address.
"Stop talking nonsense, you'll see when you get here."
Ye Qingyan was actually a little uneasy, because her family was a bit special.
The next morning, Zhen Tian left home carrying her gifts.
The first time, she only told her parents that she was going to a friend's house, but didn't let Ji Yuzhi know. She knew that there was something wrong with her heart, but she couldn't find the source. She even wanted to avoid Ji Yuzhi.
She was tormented whether she hid from it or not; her conflicted heart was about to explode.
Around 10 a.m., everyone was taken to Ye Qingyan's home.
Standing in front of Ye Qingyan's house, the three people's jaws nearly dropped to the ground in astonishment, while Zhen Tian seemed completely nonchalant.
"Holy crap, am I blind?" Yang Feiguang smacked himself hard.
Shao Junli swallowed hard, feeling as if he had lost his language system.
"I feel like I've latched onto a rich woman's golden thigh." Yuan Yuan's usually calm face was filled with these words.
Fuck peace!
