Chapter 29: I can only lean on his shoulder [VIP]
It's sunny today.
But my heart was drizzling.
Like a puppy who can't find the way home, he hides sadly in the grass by the roadside, watching the passers-by coming and going, not knowing where home is.
——"Chronological Diary"
During the day in the examination room, in front of outsiders, Zhou Chunrui's protective mood reached its peak, but after an evening self-study session, the more she thought about it, the more aggrieved she felt.
She, Zhen Hao and Yan Yunshu went to school and grew up together. The three of them can talk about anything and their relationship is even better than that with their families.
But how did Zhen Hao treat them?
In the past, she was unwilling to talk about some small things, but now she is secretly in love with a boy in the class without telling them.
If Zhou Chunrui had known earlier that Zhen Hao had a crush on Shi Hangyu, then after learning that Shi Hangyu said such hurtful words to Zhen Hao, he would not have simply scolded the other party as he did before.
And Yu Ling and her gang...
Zhou Chunrui thought about it all night and finally figured out the relationships between the characters.
Shi Xu likes Zhen Hao, Zhen Hao likes Shi Hangyu, Shi Hangyu likes Yu Ling, Yu Ling likes Song Jing, Song Jing likes Zhen Hao...
The relationship between these people almost forms a closed loop.
She boldly speculated that the "love letter incident" was definitely Yu Ling's deliberate act, with the purpose of revenge on Zhen Hao and embarrassing her...
If Zhen Hao had told her and Yan Yunshu the whole story earlier, they would never have watched their good sister suffer in silence.
She was angry. She was angry that Zhen Hao didn't treat them as her own family, and she was also angry that Zhen Hao always took on everything by himself.
She felt distressed. She felt distressed that Zhen Hao didn't dare to trust anyone easily, and she felt even more distressed that Zhen Hao always had to carry everything on his own.
Conflicting emotions surged in her chest. After holding it in for a whole evening study session, she finally couldn't hold it in anymore and poured it out like beans.
After hearing this, Yan Yunshu's first reaction was: "Rui Rui, it turns out that your brain is all about gossip."
"That's all!" Zhou Chunrui became even angrier now.
Yan Yunshu meant that she didn't study hard and only focused on studying these love affairs.
Although this is true, doesn't she have any dignity?
Zhen Hao was at a loss as her young girl's secrets were exposed. Embarrassment and nervousness made her try to change the subject: "No, Shi Hang doesn't like Yu Ling."
Zhou Chunrui: “…”
Seeing her speechless expression, Zhen Hao repeated seriously, "Shi Hangyu really doesn't like Yu Ling."
She could see that Shi Hangyu didn't like Yu Ling, nor did he like herself. It seemed that he didn't have any girl he liked.
This was great news for her. As long as he remained calm, she would have the opportunity to test the waters.
"Alright, are you trying to piss me off to death?" Zhou Chunrui really wanted to roar, "Is this the point I'm making?"
"There's another thing you're not right about." Zhen Hao tilted his head and thought for a moment, then changed the subject again, "When did Song Jing start liking me?"
Zhou Chunrui: “…”
She felt like she was going to be pissed off.
She never wanted to care about Zhen again.
A gust of wind blew, rustling the banyan leaves. Zhou Chunrui turned around angrily and walked quickly towards the dormitory alone.
Looking at Zhou Chunrui's shrinking figure, Zhen Hao realized belatedly that he was wronged: "Yunyun, am I really wrong?"
After saying that, she murmured to herself, "But it's really hard to say that you like someone who doesn't like you..."
Even best friends.
She lowered her head dejectedly, staring at the few banyan leaves that had just been blown down by the wind, feeling depressed.
Zhou Chunrui is the one with the best personality and is the most cheerful among the three of them, but she was made so angry. It seems that she really did something wrong.
"Okay, don't worry." Yan Yunshu comforted her, "Rui Rui is just angry, leave this matter to me."
After returning to the dormitory, Yan Yunshu went to find Zhou Chunrui alone, and the two stood in the corridor and talked.
Zhou Chunrui still insisted on her own opinion: "Haohao just doesn't treat us as friends. I'm not happy."
"Rui Rui, we all know Hao Hao. We all know she's worried about something. She just hasn't found the right time to tell us." Yan Yunshu said earnestly, "Besides, Hao Hao is easily embarrassed. How can you expect her to take the initiative to tell us who she likes, right?"
When he said the latter sentence, Yan Yunshu felt very guilty.
Not to mention Zhen Haohao, who is introverted by nature, even she couldn't tell her friends frankly that there was someone living in her heart.
So she could understand Zhen Hao's feelings, and Zhou Chunrui's grievances, but...
In fact, Zhou Chunrui knew what she said. She was just holding back her anger: "Anyway, I don't want to forgive her so quickly!"
Seeing her so stubborn on this matter, Yan Yunshu couldn't help but test her: "Rui Rui, if one day you find out that I'm just like Hao Hao, will you be angry with me too?"
Zhou Chunrui was stumped by her question. It was the same thing, and we couldn't generalize.
After saying that, she quickly reacted: "Yunyun, what you mean is that you also have someone you like? Tell me who it is!"
"No, no, I'm just asking, and I want to tell you that I didn't mean it."
"I understand." Zhou Chunrui had already forgiven Zhen Hao in his heart, but he was still stubborn. "Let's talk about it tomorrow."
The next morning, although Zhou Chunrui did not talk to Zhen Hao, Fang.
They were under the woods, looking in their direction.
Zhou Chunrui finally said awkwardly, "I went to the banyan tree forest to prevent Shi Xu from waiting in vain, not because of you."
"Rui Rui, don't be angry. I will tell you everything in the future, okay?" This was the first time Zhen Hao had a quarrel with her, and it was not a pleasant feeling.
"Hmph, let's see how you perform." Zhou Chunrui said arrogantly.
But Zhen Hao understood her and knew that she said that just to calm down, and the depressed mood in her heart slowly dissipated.
The test this morning was in mathematics and lasted two hours.
Zhen Hao did quite well at the beginning and finished all the basic questions, but when she got to the big questions, she obviously felt uncomfortable.
Not only did I feel cold all over, but my palms were sweating and my head was aching.
In fact, there was one thing she hadn't told Zhou Chunrui and the others.
In the past week, she would occasionally notice that the tips of her ten fingers had turned slightly black, as if they were rubbed with pencil dust, but no matter how hard she rubbed them, there was no effect.
Later, the gray-black color slowly turned into densely packed small black dots, covering the small fingertips, which looked shocking.
This symptom appeared at irregular intervals throughout the day, and although it didn't last long, it was enough to bother Zhen Hao every minute and every second. Whenever her mind stopped for a moment, she would wonder if she was sick, if she was going to die...
She spent a week in panic, not daring to tell her family, classmates or teachers. She just endured it silently, hoping that the abnormality on her fingertips would not reappear.
With an hour left before the exam, Zhen Hao couldn't hold back his stomach any longer and raised his hand, "Teacher, I...I don't feel well. I want to...go to the bathroom."
Just saying this made her break out in a cold sweat and her lips turned pale.
The teacher agreed to her request.
Zhen Hao stood up with great difficulty, but the moment he stood up, his eyes went dark and he fell heavily to the ground.
Before falling to the ground, her head hit the corner of the table, and her forehead quickly became red and swollen.
"Okay!" Zhou Chunrui looked up at Zhen Hao after hearing her words.
The accident happened so quickly that she had no time to react and could only scream.
The huge noise attracted the attention of the classmates. Shi Xu had been paying attention to Zhen Hao since she raised her hand to speak, but even though he rushed over at the first moment, he could not prevent the accident from happening in an instant.
His eyes flushed with anxiety. Without a word, he squatted down and tried to pick up Zhen Hao, but it was difficult to lift someone unconscious. He tried several times but failed. Finally, with the help of teachers and classmates, he was able to carry the girl on his back. He ran towards the school gate like a madman, fearing that a second later would lead to irreversible consequences.
Zhou Chunrui and Song Jing followed closely behind.
The invigilator said, "Everyone, continue taking the exam," and followed him out of the classroom. He recognized Zhen Hao from Teacher Chen's class and, while calling a taxi, reminded the teacher carrying Zhen Hao on his back, "Be careful, don't fall."
Seeing that Song Jing and the other two had followed him out at some point, he scolded them, "Two students, what are you doing out here? Go back and continue your exams!"
Hearing this, Zhou Chunrui immediately covered his stomach and said, "Teacher, my stomach hurts. I want to go to the hospital too. Ah——"
Her acting was so exaggerated that I couldn't help but shake my head when I saw it out of the corner of my eye.
Song Jing immediately started acting when he heard this: "I'll help Zhou go together to avoid any accidents!"
As he said this, he pretended to support Zhou Chunrui.
The two of them cooperated well, and apart from their slightly exaggerated expressions, there was no fault in their logic.
The invigilator's mind was already on the fainted Zhen Hao. Even though he knew the two were faking it, he didn't dwell on the details. He waved his hand and said, "Let's go together."
Shi Xu quickly arrived at the school gate carrying Zhen Hao on his back. Song Jing was always by his side to protect him, fearing that he would accidentally fall and hurt the girl on his back.
Mr. Chen, the head teacher who was invigilating other classes, quickly drove to the school gate. The county hospital was only one kilometer away and could be reached quickly by car.
Several people got on the car, but the invigilator did not follow. He watched the car leave and then returned to the classroom to continue invigilating.
Zhou Chunrui sat in the passenger seat and kept looking at Zhen Hao who was leaning on Shi Xu's shoulder in the back seat.
Zhen Hao has regained consciousness, but he is still weak all over and has no strength to speak, so he can only lean on others quietly.
"Okay, hold on a little longer, we'll be at the hospital soon." Zhou Chunrui's eyes were full of worry.
Shi Xu and Song Jing remained silent.
"Two students in the back, take good care of Zhen." Teacher Chen said as he drove, "Zhen, I've already called your father. Don't be afraid."
After hearing what Teacher Chen said, Zhen Hao moved his lips, but in the end he didn't say a word.
She didn't want to alarm her family, but now that things had come to this, there was no point in saying more.
The hospital arrived quickly.
The doctor first took Zhen Hao's temperature and drew blood for testing.
While waiting for the test results, Zhen Dongcheng rushed to the hospital in a hurry.
"Okay, how do you feel?" There was sweat on his forehead, and the worry on his face was something Zhen Hao had never seen before.
Her nose suddenly felt sore, and she tried hard not to cry: "It's much better now."
"That's good, that's good, that's good." Zhen Dongcheng said "That's good" three times in a row before greeting Teacher Chen and several children.
The time waiting for the blood test report seemed to be stretched infinitely, and one minute felt like a century.
Zhen Dongcheng used the excuse of going to the bathroom, and when he came back, he was holding four strings of candied haws in his hand.
There are hawthorn, strawberry, and emblica.
He handed the bunch of emblica to Zhen Hao: "Okay, I remember you like this flavor."
