Chapter 18 School is about to start



Shengxia curled up her legs and retreated into the bed: "No, no, no! This is so painful, I don't want to disinfect it, it will heal on its own in two days!"

Qin Ge grabbed him and scolded him, "Don't move around. If you don't disinfect it, it will get infected and it won't get any worse."

Shengxia could be as willful as she wanted at ordinary times, but when it came to real combat, the difference in strength between them was too great. Shengxia couldn't break free, and she was afraid of the pain, so she kept kicking around on the bed, and kicked Qin Ge in the face several times.

Qin Ge finally managed to restrain him: "Good boy, I'll be gentle, I'll be gentle, okay?"

Shengxia struggled until she was covered in sweat, her clothes were torn to shreds, and the ankle of her other foot was still firmly grasped in Qin Ge's palm, not trying to break free at all.

She gasped for breath with exhaustion and pitifully discussed with Qin Ge: "I'm so hungry. I'll eat first and then disinfect after dinner, okay? If I don't eat, what if I faint from the pain?"

Qin Ge saw through her little calculations at a glance. She habitually put off things she didn't want to face, and she would forget about them as she put them off. Qin Ge knew she was afraid of pain, so he patiently said to her, "Once the disinfection and bandage are done, I'll let you go eat and even buy you some candy."

After hearing the second half of the sentence, Shengxia's face immediately turned red, as if she was so old and still needed someone to coax her with candy.

She coughed and relaxed a little: "Be gentle, tell me before you touch..."

Qin Ge nodded.

After Shengxia screamed in pain countless times, she waited for Qin Ge to finally wipe off the dirty thing. She was kicked several times on the face and neck, and she sweated more than Shengxia.

After applying the medicine, Shengxia hid in the quilt and refused to come out no matter what was said.

"Who told you to ride your bike without calling me? Behave yourself. Get up quickly and I'll take you to buy some candy." As he said that, he threw the used gauze into the trash can.

Shengxia muttered something: "When you go to the construction site this afternoon, remember to bring my bicycle over to get it fixed. I broke it."

Qin Ge prepared a meal outside and brought it in. He sat beside the bed and fed Sheng Xia: "Don't study for the next few days. Take a rest. School won't start for several days anyway."

Shengxia quickly finished a few bites and then Qin Ge took over. After they finished eating, Qin Ge took the bowl and chopsticks back and let Shengxia have a good rest.

Qin Ge couldn't rest, but fortunately there wasn't much work on the construction site today, so after dinner, he went to the construction site.

In recent days, Hou Jianhong's own niece Feng Caiwei also came. Because she also passed the entrance exam to Jinghai University, she came to live with her uncle in advance.

She happened to be free that day, so she came here for a stroll. When she saw a little girl working on the construction site, she came over curiously.

"Is that person your boyfriend?" Feng Caiwei said, pointing at Qin Ge who was walking away.

Shengxia usually had no one to talk to outside, so she nodded boredly.

"It seems difficult to talk to you."

Shengxia smiled.

In fact, apart from her bad temper, Shengxia's appearance is quite deceptive. She is as beautiful as a charming little fox! Her peach blossom eyes are full of autumn water, and the look she gives people is like a look filled with affection.

Feng Caiwei nodded without saying anything, looked at her on the bed, and glanced at her up and down.

Sheng Xia understood and said, "I'm not disabled. I was just injured today. Qin Ge asked me to rest."

"Then why don't you go to school?" Feng Caiwei was a chatterbox. Even though Shengxia didn't say much, she could still ask on her own.

"I was admitted to Jinghai University, but school hasn't started yet, so I'll stay here for a while."

Feng Caiwei's eyes lit up when she heard this: "Jinghai University! I got admitted there too. Let's go together then."

Shengxia looked at her excited expression and saw that she had no intention of leaving.

But her legs were so painful that she stretched them out. When Feng Caiwei saw her stretched legs, she understood what she meant and tactfully said something and left.

Not long after Feng Caiwei left, Shengxia fell asleep. When she woke up, it was dark and Qin Ge had also returned from the construction site.

Seeing that Shengxia was awake, Qin Ge took out a thick book from his bag and threw it to her: "If you have had enough rest, school will start soon, you can read this book at home."

“What book is that…?”

Shengxia muttered to herself. Just as he took it, the heavy thick book made her arm fall to the ground. Then she looked at the title - "Polymer Materials Engineering - Professional English", which was a textbook published by Jinghai University.

Shengxia immediately exploded: "What is this! Take it away... It gives me a headache just looking at it. School hasn't even started yet, and my head still hurts! I don't want to see it!"

Seeing that she was injured, Qin Ge was afraid that she might not behave herself and secretly go for a bike ride again. He ignored her and opened the curtain and went out: "Read the first chapter first today and do the questions in the back, so that you don't waste your energy."

"Qin Ge!!"

Ignoring Shengxia's wailing, Qin Ge left, leaving Shengxia alone facing the book in her hand that was heavier than a brick on the construction site. She almost fainted and seemed about to foam at the mouth.

Qin Ge looked at Shengxia playing tricks in the house from the window and couldn't help laughing.

Shengxia flipped open the first page. The first chapter was seventy or eighty pages long, and the whole book was over five hundred! She threw herself on the bed and collapsed onto the quilt, feeling hopeless.

Who wrote this book? It's so long! How can I finish reading it?

Qin Ge had something to do at the construction site in the evening, so he prepared dinner for Shengxia and went back to the construction site.

These days, Qin Ge didn't return home until three or four in the evening.

Shengxia didn't know what he was doing specifically because Qin Ge didn't tell her. He just said that every time he went back, he would have some injuries on his body. Shengxia cried several times out of heartache when she saw it.

In a few days, school will start in midsummer.

Qin Ge stayed at the construction site all night again and didn't come back. He has been doing this often recently, always letting Shengxia go to bed early.

Shengxia sometimes particularly dislikes Qin Ge's temper. Perhaps it is due to the limitations of the times. Qin Ge is a very traditional man at heart, and people will not tell him too much about things outside. It was like this in the previous life.

It's time to report to school tomorrow. Shengxia knows that Qin Ge must be very tired from working so hard every day. She doesn't want him to worry about her anymore, so she packs up everything she needs for the report, puts them on the table, lies on the bed and starts thinking about her previous life.

Qin Ge had chosen the same path as in her previous life, and for Sheng Xia, this time in college was indeed a completely unknown road. Thinking back to this time in her previous life, she was like a bird kept captive by Qin Ge. She lived in the golden cage Qin Ge had built for her, free from the hardships of the outside world, but her wings had not yet grown.
