Jiang Manyue took her mother to the hospital for a follow-up examination in front of her classmates, and then rumors spread that Jiang Manyue had an abortion for Shen Zhongli.
Shen Zhongli initially took an indifferent attitude towards the rumors, saying "it's none of my business". But when it came to the part about abortion, Shen Zhongli suddenly couldn't sit still and exploded. He caught several people who were leading the rumor-spreading and put them in a toilet where there was no surveillance and beat them up severely.
It caused a lot of commotion and finally the parents were called in.
Her father abandoned her and her mother when she was very young. Her mother, a single daughter, had to live with the child. She became so overworked that her lower body became paralyzed and she could not attend parent-teacher meetings at all.
He could only turn to his uncle for help.
Fortunately, Shen Zhongli's parents had some status and reputation, so the matter was handled without any trouble. Her uncle was only reprimanded by the teacher for disciplining her.
The uncle felt sorry for their mother and took them in despite the criticism from their aunt.
Jiang Manyue felt that she had already caused a lot of trouble for her uncle and didn't want to cause any more trouble, so she took the initiative to find the teacher and said that she could not keep up with the progress of the key class and wanted to be transferred to a regular class.
The teacher might feel that she couldn't touch a young master like Shen Zhongli, but she was undoubtedly the best choice, so she agreed without saying anything.
When Shen Zhongli found out, he was very angry and wanted to tear down the teacher's office.
It was she who said those hurtful and cruel words that persuaded the man to come back.
She said: "Can you please not be so arrogant and self-righteous.
It was my request to change shifts, it has nothing to do with anyone else. If I have to say something related, it's because of you.
It's because of you that I'm in this situation.
I just want to study hard and get into a good university. I don't want to sit next to you, listen to you explaining the questions to me, or eat your tired breakfast, milk, fruit snacks...
You are really annoying. I don't want to have anything to do with you. I just want to study in peace.
Please, let's just pretend we don't know each other, okay?"
After hearing this, Shen Zhongli wiped his face and pulled out his schoolbag from the table, "Okay, I'll give you some peace and quiet, I'm leaving!"
Jiang Manyue finally stayed in the key class, while Shen Zhongli went to the ordinary class.
"If you look at me straight in the eye, you will know that she looks like me. You are quite amazing."
Shen Zhongli's sarcastic tone brought Jiang Manyue's wandering thoughts back to reality.
"..." Jiang Manyue was stunned for a moment before she realized what he said. She pursed her lips and said, "It's like you back then."
"At that time?" Shen Zhongli sneered, raised his eyes to meet her evasive gaze, "Didn't you look down on me at that time?"
Jiang Manyue: ...
Don't like it?
How could she, an ordinary girl with a lot of debts and a paralyzed mother, be worthy of the young master who looked down on her in every way?
She should be the one who is looked down upon.
"No!" Jiang Manyue lowered her head and twisted her fingers nervously.
"If you didn't look down on me, why did you abandon me to study design abroad?"
Jiang Manyue: ...
abandon?
How could that be!
I thought that after Shen Zhongli was transferred, even if the two of them met face to face occasionally, they would pretend not to know each other and go their separate ways, and they would never have any intersection again.
It was not until that skiing trip that Shen Zhongli went to find her.
She also thought that after she blamed him for what he said, the two of them would never have any contact again.
It was not until the night after the college entrance examination that Shen Zhongli stopped her on her way home.
He said, "Come with me to medical school!"
"Aren't you going to study abroad?" she asked puzzled.
"It's enough to have my brother studying abroad to inherit the family business," he said with a smile, "I have analyzed your first to third mock exams. With your grades, you will definitely be able to get into medical school this time."
Maybe it was because he was done with the exam and all the pressure in his heart was gone, he felt relaxed and unrestrained, plus he looked as happy as a child.
Jiang Manyue thought it was a good suggestion for the first time, although she didn't understand why she chose medical school. "Okay!"
After receiving her affirmative answer, Shen Zhongli was so happy that he became a child, "Great, I have learned about it, the medical school has a full scholarship, you don't have to worry about tuition.
The Department of Reproductive Medicine has many scientific research projects, and we can do research with our supervisor to earn some living expenses..."
"Reproductive medicine?" Jiang Manyue's heart skipped a beat. "Why reproductive medicine?"
"Because of reproductive medicine..." Shen Zhongli touched his nose unnaturally, "Because the reproductive department of the hospital does not have emergencies, no overtime, no late nights, if you cure people you will be grateful, if you can't cure them it doesn't matter.
Even if we take a step back, at least the treatment won’t kill anyone, and there won’t be a serious doctor-patient relationship.”
"No..." Jiang Manyue pursed her lips, "Because I can't..."
"No," Shen Zhongli interrupted her and said, "What are you thinking about? It has nothing to do with you.
Originally, my family wanted me to study abroad in the NBA, but I didn’t want to, saying that I wanted to stay in the country to study medicine. My parents said that being a doctor was too tiring and that I might even be sued by the patients’ families.
Then I analyzed it and felt that reproductive medicine was the easiest and most suitable.
So we both compromised and chose reproductive medicine.”
Jiang Manyue believed it and happily waited for the scores to come out and fill in the application form.
Jiang Manyue worked throughout that summer, but she was happy in her heart and felt that the future was full of hope.
The only thing that made her unhappy was that Shen Zhongli never came to see her again after he told her about the plan.
She didn't have a cell phone at that time. When she was about to check her scores, Shen Zhongli asked someone to send her a cell phone, and the two were finally able to communicate.
Shen Zhongli said that his mother was going to a remote mountainous area to look for her missing sister, and he was worried, so he followed her.
Because it was too remote and there was no signal, I didn't find a way to contact her. I'll have someone send her a cell phone when there's a signal.
He also said that his sister, who was still living in another city with her mother, would fill out her application online and could only come back when she went to school.
Maybe the signal was bad where he went and he couldn't get in touch with her often, which caused her to often stare at her phone in a daze.
Her abnormal behavior alerted her mother to something going on, so Jiang Manyue had to tell her mother about her relationship with Shen Zhongli.
Unexpectedly, after hearing this, her mother sighed deeply, and with a look of heartache, she tucked the hair that was scattered on her forehead behind her ears.
Jiang Manyue didn't understand why her mother was like this and just thought that her mother was worried that she was falling in love too early.
"Mom, I'm an adult now and I'm in college."
"..." Mom was in a trance for a moment, then gave a bitter smile, "Daughter! I'm not against you dating.
Mom is just worried that you will end up like her and regret your whole life."
"No, he is not that kind of person," Jiang Manyue retorted subconsciously.
"You are still young and don't understand how complicated and difficult human nature is. Sometimes you can't even control yourself." As she said this, the mother sighed again and looked into the distance through the small window, as if she was recalling something.
After a moment of silence, my mother continued, "Love is just a hormone effect that lasts from a few months to three to five years. When it ends, love ends too. Maintaining a relationship depends on values, character, and similar hardware conditions of both parties.
He is really obsessed with you now. He can choose not to go abroad for you, and of course he can also fight against his family for you.
Family background, wealth gap, appearance and so on will not be obstacles between you.
What holds you back is the fact that you may not be able to have children.
There are only two most important things about human genes: survival and reproduction.
Survival means staying alive, which is no problem for you. The next issue is reproduction. No man would like to live his whole life without children of his own.
Even if a man swears to be a DINK when he is young, he will regret it and want to have a child when he gets older.
This is human nature and cannot be changed.
Even if he loves you enough and is willing to not have children for you, he still won't be happy.
Just like the major he chose, reproductive medicine.
No matter how reasonable his explanation is, can you guarantee that he doesn't want to cure you?
As long as there is, it means that he cannot accept not having children."
