He wasn't unaware of the rumors, but he didn't quite believe them. After all, he had met Zhen Tian's family on the first day of school, and they didn't seem like the type to cause this girl any harm.
"It's alright, you can go back now."
Shao Yuheng watched the two disappear behind the teaching building before turning around and walking behind a tree not far away.
His best friend was waiting there, and frowned as he looked at Shao Yuheng: "Old Shao, you stayed up all night these past two days to organize these notes, why didn't you tell your junior?"
"If I tell her, will she still want it?"
"So you're just going to keep giving silently and take the sentimental route?"
"What else can we do? She has a boyfriend."
The man looked at Shao Yuheng as if he were seeing him for the first time: "It seems you really like him."
Shao Yuheng gave a wry smile.
...
Thanks to Zhen Tian's diligent study, the final exams passed without any major incidents.
During the days when she ignored everything outside the window and focused solely on studying the classics, she missed out on a lot of comics.
The editor keeps urging her online.
[Xiaoyu: Author, please update! Seriously, if you don't update soon, your fans are going to kill you!]
[Sweet on the tongue: Immediately, immediately.]
[Xiaoyu: You've been telling me for days that it's almost here.]
[Sweet Tongue: This time it really is right away. I finished my exams and I'm rushing to finish this draft now.]
Zhen Tian was a little embarrassed. She could never do two things at once, and she could only focus on one at a time, drawing and final exams.
[Xiaoyu: Hmm... I'll wait for you.]
[Xiaoyu: Our book sales are pretty good, and the group is thinking of organizing a book signing for the author. What do you think...?]
[Sweet Tongue: No, I don't really want to do it.]
[Xiaoyu: Why? This is a rare opportunity! Holding a book signing event will attract many fans.]
[Sweet Tongue: Sorry for personal reasons.]
[Xiaoyu: Okay, I still hope you can reconsider.]
Zhen Tian didn't reply. I was drawing in Ji Yuzhi's studio. She wasn't participating because she wasn't interested, but more importantly, she was afraid of getting hurt on the way. After all, she seemed like a normal person, but she wasn't really.
The Lunar New Year is fast approaching.
"It's time to go home." Ji Yuzhi walked to the small sofa and woke up Zhen Tian, who was sleeping.
"Zhizhi~" Zhen Tian smiled dreamily and buried her face in his chest.
Since Zhen Tian started staying in his office, he even replaced the sofa with a softer, more comfortable one.
“I have exams next week, and I might have even less time to take care of you then. The New Year is coming soon, and you should go back to H City.” Ji Yuzhi had already received many calls from Aunt Lu urging him to come back, but he couldn’t refuse this girl.
"Hmm... I don't want to leave you." Zhen Tian stretched.
"I'll go back after the exam."
He touched her cheek; she had just woken up, her face flushed and covered in a thin layer of sweat. He took a tissue and wiped her face with it, then grabbed a large down jacket and wrapped it around her from head to toe.
"What are you wearing?" Zhen Tian asked, yawning as she draped his clothes over herself.
It's freezing cold outside, with snow everywhere.
Ji Yuzhi pulled a coat out of the closet. He usually kept several suits in a closet in his office for emergencies.
"It must be cold," Zhen Tian sniffed, looking at his thin clothes.
"It's not cold." Ji Yuzhi led her to squat down in front of Tian Tian and zipped up her zipper.
The car drove very slowly on the ice; it was already very late at night.
I got home around 10 p.m.
At the end of the year, he gave everyone in the studio a holiday, and those who hadn't finished their tasks could go home to continue. The studio's affairs fell entirely on his shoulders.
Although the studio is gradually getting on track, he is getting busier and busier.
Ji Yuzhi has already tried to adjust things, but he still feels like he's neglecting Zhen Tian.
As soon as she got home, Zhen Tian became drowsy again. She took off her coat and went straight into bed.
"Take a shower first."
"I don't want to wash."
"If you don't wash, you'll feel uncomfortable when you wake up tomorrow morning." Ji Yuzhi didn't mind, but the little girl was so sleepy that she didn't care about anything, but she would feel uncomfortable all over when she woke up tomorrow.
"Ugh, so annoying." Zhen Tian crawled out of bed again, grabbed the change of clothes Ji Yuzhi had found for her, and went into the bathroom.
She felt drowsy while soaking in the water.
These past few days, she's been working long hours to meet deadlines, and on top of that, she's getting her period. She tends to feel tired before her period even starts.
Ji Yuzhi took a quick shower, and after showering, he sat on the edge of the bed looking at his study materials while waiting for her to come out.
He had already looked at a small portion of it, and then he glanced at his watch; almost an hour had passed.
He closed the book, got up, and knocked on the bathroom door.
"Sweetie? It's time to come out, the water's getting cold."
"Sweetie?"
"knew."
Zhen Tian yawned, and then fell asleep again.
She climbed out of the water, casually wiped away the water droplets, put on her clothes, and walked outside.
Seeing her tired look, Ji Yuzhi asked with some concern, "Are you feeling unwell anywhere?"
"fine."
Zhen Tian burrowed under the covers and waved to Ji Yuzhi, who was standing there: "Come here and hug me."
He smiled helplessly and turned off the light. The room fell into darkness.
the next day.
Zhen Tianta walked out in her slippers.
"This is……"
A complete suitcase stands in the living room.
"I've booked your plane ticket. You're flying to H City this afternoon."
Ji Yuzhi cooked soup for her and brought it to the table wearing heat-resistant gloves.
"Are you in such a hurry to get rid of me!" Zhen Tian was unhappy.
“It’s not that I want to send you away.” Ji Yuzhi bent down and pinched the tip of her nose. “It’s that Aunt Lu misses you. If I don’t let you go back, I’m afraid I’ll get beaten by my uncle.”
"They won't dare hit you if I'm around," Zhen Tian muttered.
"Let's eat."
"Hmph. Do you think you can do bad things behind my back if I leave?"
"nonsense."
Despite her reluctance, Zhen Tian was forced onto the plane by Ji Yuzhi, while he stayed in H City to continue preparing for the exam.
*****
The year is fast approaching.
The Zhen family was still singing and dancing with great joy, and Ji Yuzhi and his parents were still spending the New Year at the Zhen family home. This year, the New Year was not early, so before the Lantern Festival on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, universities started their semesters one after another.
She didn't stay at home for long, which made Lu Ti both angry and anxious.
"You haven't even started school yet, why are you in such a hurry to leave?"
Zhen Tian stuffed things into her suitcase: "It's just work, so I'll go back with him early. School starts in a few days."
"No wonder your dad said you don't want anything anymore now that you have a boyfriend." Lu Ti sat on Zhen Tian's bed, arms crossed, looking annoyed.
"Oh, my best mom." Zhen Tian rushed over: "I just wanted one."
"You two have been together every day since you were little, haven't you gotten tired of seeing each other yet?" Lu Ti pouted.
"How could I possibly get tired of looking at it?" Zhen Tian bit her lip. "Zhizhi looks different every day."
"What's different?"
"Hmm...it looks even better..."
"Look at your pathetic self," Lu Ti said through gritted teeth in anger.
