But his emotions were like a lion released from its cage, beyond his control. Today, he has done many things he shouldn't have done, things he has done before, and things he will continue to do in the future.
He originally meant to say that a man will only cherish a woman like a baby when he loves her to the extreme. If a man doesn't love a woman, he will say that she can't do anything, that she is very capable, that she can stand on her own in society, and that we don't need to worry about her, and so on.
But he is no longer in a position to say such things.
Therefore, he remained silent for a while, his mouth feeling as if he had swallowed a lot of bitter medicine, extremely bitter. He slowly raised his head, looking at Ye Wenyu with a touch of sadness, his gaze like continuous autumn rain. He raised his hand to his ear and made a phone call gesture, saying gently to her, "Call me if anything happens. I've been at school these days, I'll be there whenever you call."
Ye Wenyu didn't want to see him again, so she didn't say anything, but impatiently waved her hand again, telling him to leave quickly.
Jiang Zhiming could only say, "Goodbye. I'll pick you up for school tomorrow morning. What time do your classes start?"
What? Jiang Zhiming plans to carry her every day until her leg recovers, take her to school, to the classroom, after class, to the cafeteria, and back to her dormitory?
If I carry her back and forth on campus for several days like this, wouldn't it cause a huge scandal? No, absolutely not! If Lin Tingyue finds out about this, she'll kill me!
Therefore, Ye Wenyu immediately said, "No need. No need. I have other friends, and I will ask them for help. Jiang Zhiming, there is a difference between us, and you have a girlfriend. You should be mindful of your actions and avoid suspicion."
She has made herself very clear.
Jiang Zhiming froze, his face flushing. Ye Wenyu had reminded him several times to care about Lin Tingyue's feelings, and he had been desperately reminding himself to control his emotions, but sometimes, he still couldn't help himself.
He could only say in a hoarse voice, "Alright, then I'll trouble you, my friend. I'll come see you again when I have time. Goodbye." His throat seemed to have suddenly developed a serious throat ailment.
Ye Wenyu breathed a sigh of relief, as if a huge weight had been lifted from her chest. This time, she smiled and politely said, "Thank you, goodbye."
Jiang Zhiming turned around dejectedly, took two steps forward, and felt as if a huge hole had been torn open in his heart, like an eggshell, making a hollow sound that caused him great pain.
He suddenly remembered something, turned around, and saw Ye Wenyu hopping alone, carrying a bag of medicine, preparing to return to the girls' dormitory. He called out to her gently, "Xiaoyu—"
Ye Wenyu still had her back to him and asked him impatiently, "What else is there?" She was injured and it was difficult for her to turn around with only one healthy leg, so she was too lazy to turn around.
Jiang Zhiming said to her, "I forget when I get busy. I came to see you today because I have some important good news to tell you."
What?
Ye Wenyu listened impatiently.
Jiang Zhiming said to her, "Your eligibility for the poverty subsidy has been reinstated."
What?! Like a thunderclap, Ye Wenyu suddenly turned around, her eyes wide open. Due to the violent movement, one leg could not maintain her balance, and she swayed violently. Jiang Zhiming immediately stepped forward and supported her to prevent her from falling on the wet and hard ground.
He smiled at her and said, "Your financial aid eligibility has been reinstated. I believe the school will call you soon, which will make your life much easier."
"Is it true?" Overwhelmed with joy, Ye Wenyu's eyes welled up with tears. Good heavens, these past few days, in order to earn her tuition and living expenses for her second year of university, as well as the debts at the end of the year, she had been saving every penny and working desperately. She had already exhausted herself to the limit, and because of her leg injury, she had been unable to work. She was worried and suffering over money, but she never expected to suddenly receive such good news.
This is truly the best news of the year!
Seeing the girl's joy, Jiang Zhiming felt a pang of heartache. He thought how simple her wish was—to have her poverty-stricken student status reinstated—and how happy she was. He said gently, "I promised you I would help you find a way. I spoke to Lin Tingyue about your situation, and she contacted some friends with connections, so your problem was solved. That's why I laughed at Professor Cai's naivety earlier. This is a society where everything depends on connections, yet he thought arguing with the principal would restore your poverty-stricken student status." As Jiang Zhiming spoke, a hint of disdain appeared on his face. At the same time, he realized a truth: he couldn't leave Lin Tingyue. Only with her could he take care of himself, his family, and the girl he loved.
Yes, doing this is going too far, but Lin Tingyue loves her, and she did it willingly.
Ye Wenyu didn't want to say much. She originally wanted to scold Jiang Zhiming and defend Cai Wenchuan, but she really needed this poverty student spot so badly. It would lighten her heavy burden by half. So, she said in a hoarse voice, "Zhiming, thank you."
