Xiao Shuo covered his chest, lay down and relaxed, a sigh echoing in the empty room.
When Ji Qingzhou was waiting outside the door just now, he happened to meet Xiao Shuo's attending physician, and went to his office to chat for a few words.
But when he came back and looked through the window on the ward door, he found that Xiao Shuo was the only one left in the room.
"Where are the people?"
Ji Qingzhou frowned and was about to push the door to ask when someone suddenly called her from the other end of the corridor.
"Light boat."
Ji Qingwan raised her hand to wipe the water droplets off her face and walked towards her quickly.
Ji Qingzhou looked at her with some confusion.
"What have you been doing?"
Ji Qingwan quickened her pace, and when her eyes passed the door of the ward, she hastily withdrew them somewhat unnaturally.
She lowered her head slightly, took Ji Qingzhou's arm and was about to take him away.
"Nothing, it's just too hot, I just went to wash my face."
"It's getting late, let's go back."
Ji Qingwan tried hard to act as usual.
But the concealment was too obvious, and Ji Qingzhou still heard something wrong.
Ji Qingzhou frowned and looked carefully as he walked.
"Sister, you just cried, didn't you?"
Even though she had just washed her face with cold water, her eyes were still very red.
But given Ji Qingwan's personality, asking is useless. If you want to know what happened, you have to find a way.
Ji Qingwan shook her head and was about to say no, but Ji Qingzhou had already rolled up his sleeves.
"Well, I tried so hard to find a cure for him, and he actually bullied my sister!"
"I want to ask him if he has a heart or not!"
After saying that, she headed straight for Xiao Shuo's ward.
Ji Qingwan was startled and quickly chased after him to stop him.
"Qingzhou, don't be impulsive. He didn't bully me."
Ji Qingzhou was full of disbelief: "I said I didn't bully you, but you're crying like this. No, I have to get to the bottom of this today!"
After saying that, he rushed to the ward again.
Ji Qingwan hugged Ji Qingzhou's waist tightly. She had no choice but to tell the truth.
"I really don't blame him, it's my fault."
"I was rejected by him and felt sad, so..."
"In the final analysis, it was because I was too fragile."
Then, Ji Qingwan briefly described to Ji Qingzhou what had just happened.
Ji Qingzhou was stunned.
It turned out to be because of this.
But if you think about it, it seems understandable.
Ji Qingzhou sighed, put his arm around his sister's shoulders and patted her.
"Sister, his current situation is special, so his psychology will naturally be affected..."
Ji Qingwan nodded.
"I understand. It's not the right time yet. I don't blame him."
"Actually, I don't have any other thoughts right now. I just feel that he looks like an old friend. Plus, he was injured while serving his country, so I want to take good care of him."
"But since he already has a partner and wants to avoid suspicion, forget it."
After saying this, Ji Qingwan felt a lot more relieved.
She took a deep breath and tried to smile.
"It doesn't matter. This isn't the only thing in my life. Studying hard is the most important thing."
The more Ji Qingwan pretended to be strong, the more distressed Ji Qingzhou felt.
How can it be so easy to let go of something like this?
I'm afraid she will be sad for a while.
Ji Qingzhou sighed again.
On the way back, Ji Qingwan remained silent the whole time.
Ji Qingzhou was worried that she would get stuck in a rut, so after hesitating for a moment, he expressed his guess.
"In fact, the childhood sweetheart Xiao Shuo mentioned might have been lying to you."
"I heard from Yan Bei before that Xiao Shuo has been alone in the military camp all these years. His mind is only on training and combat, and he rarely comes out on leave."
"Besides, his parents died early, and he doesn't have many relatives at home, so it's unlikely that they can help him find a partner."
What's more, Xiao Shuo, Xie Yanbei and the other two have such a good relationship. If they are really engaged, it is impossible for them not to tell others.
These words were meant to comfort her, but Ji Qingwan lowered her eyes and smiled bitterly after hearing them.
"You're rejecting me even by lying. It seems you really don't like me."
"In that case, I have no reason to keep thinking about him."
After saying that, she seemed to have made some decision and took Ji Qingzhou's hand.
"Qingzhou, please help me make a study plan. Starting tonight, I will study hard."
Ji Qingwan does what she says.
When she returned home that night, she didn't even eat and plunged into studying.
Every day after that, she would get up before dawn to review her lessons. The scrap paper she used for her daily calculations would pile up thickly, and her books would be turned so many times that the edges were curled up.
Sometimes, the number of words she chatted in three to five days could be counted on one hand.
Seeing him neglecting food and sleep day after day, Ji Qingzhou felt sad and distressed.
"Alas, are you working so hard for the sake of learning, or just to numb yourself..."
Ji Qingzhou was really worried that her body couldn't hold on, so he would bring her a glass of spiritual spring water from time to time.
Whenever Ji Qingwan felt sleepy and tired after studying, she would immediately perk up after drinking the spiritual spring water and study even harder.
Seeing this, Ji Qingzhou became more motivated to study.
The days passed one by one, and another week passed in the blink of an eye.
Ji Qingzhou calculated that according to the study plan he had made, Ji Qingwan should have already completed a round of study, so he found a test paper.
The two of them finished the work together and then exchanged their corrections.
After grading a test paper, Ji Qingzhou was shocked.
"Sister, you made almost no mistakes on this test!"
You know, before Ji Qingwan started studying like crazy, her scores on a 100-point test always hovered around 80 points, and there were times when she scored 60 or 70 points.
Isn’t this score increase too fast?!
Is this what they mean by having no man in your heart and drawing the sword naturally like a god?
Ji Qingwan was not surprised, but rather calm as if she had expected it.
She smiled and pointed at Ji Qingzhou's test paper.
"I even made a typo. You deserve a perfect score!"
Ji Qingzhou smiled mischievously and stretched out a hand towards her.
"Hello, sister of the future college student."
Ji Qingwan was amused and laughed, and imitated her and shook hands with her.
"Hello, sister of the future college student."
Seeing that Ji Qingwan's mood had really recovered and even her academic performance had improved so much, Ji Qingzhou couldn't help but go forward and hug her.
"Sister, I'm really happy for you."
Ji Qingwan understood what she meant and accepted the hug.
After a moment, he regained his spirits, smiled and slapped her.
"Why are you so happy? The questions on this test are simple, and getting into university isn't that certain."
"The road ahead is long and difficult. Hurry up, stop wasting time and get on with your studies!"
After saying that, she smiled and pushed Ji Qingzhou away, walked back to the desk, picked up the book and started to recite.
Ji Qingzhou deliberately clicked his tongue beside him: "He's crazy, really crazy."
After saying that, he rushed back to his room and started learning as quickly as possible.
The two sisters encouraged each other, studied together, and made rapid progress.
After returning from the hospital that day, Ji Qingwan told Ye Lanqing that she didn't need them to take care of her anymore.
