He had experienced having things he liked taken away from him before. At first, he was a little unaccustomed to it, but he was able to adjust quickly and find new things he liked soon.
Gu Zhixing thought that his feelings for Shen Jintang were the same; perhaps he would stop caring about her and stop liking her in a few days.
But it's different, not at all.
The longer Shen Jintang was away from him, the more he missed her, and the thought of her kept him up all night.
Shen Jintang's presence was everywhere in the room, and there were traces of Shen Jintang's existence in every place. Shen Jintang was involved in everything he did during this period!
How could he possibly forget that?
He couldn't stop wanting to find her, to see her.
If it weren't for a sliver of reason telling him that his most important task right now was to prepare for the imperial examinations, only by doing well could he bring Shen Jintang back, and only by doing well could he and Shen Jintang be together forever, and no one would ever separate them again.
If he didn't still have such rationality, he would have run to Yanzhou long ago.
What kind of place is Yanzhou?
With the Yellow River breaching its banks, refugees are everywhere. Can Shen Jintang protect himself in such a dangerous place all by himself?

He knows nothing and can do nothing!
"Boss, I know we need to take the imperial examinations, but we can't just become bookworms, can we?" Ye Qingzhou glanced at the essay Gu Zhixing was practicing, narrowed his eyes, recognized the words, and said, "The Yellow River bursting its banks?"
"Oh! Boss, speaking of the Yellow River, I just remembered something. My old man said that Yanzhou had the most and worst refugees. When the relief supplies arrived, some people were so hungry they ate clay!"
Guanyin clay can be swallowed, but it cannot be excreted.
It has absolutely no nutritional value; it only makes you feel temporarily full, but in the end, it can cause you to die from overeating.
In fact, everyone knows that eating Guanyin clay is taking you further and further away from a way to survive.
But if you're forced to eat Guanyin clay out of desperation, it just means that there's nothing else to eat there anymore.
If you don't eat Guanyin clay, you'll starve to death.
Shen Jintang went to Yanzhou!
"Thump—"
The desk overturned and crashed to the ground with a dull thud.
Gu Zhixing could no longer hold back; he suddenly stood up and ran outside.
