Chapter 83

After staying in the hospital for more than 20 days, Chi Shen was finally discharged.

On the day of being discharged from the hospital, it was also when the results of the college entrance examination in City A were announced. The family first brought Chi Shen home together. After the placement was done, it was noon before they knew it. Qin Sheng immediately proposed to go out to eat, as a celebration of the double happiness.

"...I can understand you helping Chi Shen to celebrate his discharge from the hospital, but why is it a double happiness? My results are only announced at night, so I'm so sure that I did well in the exam?" Qiao Zhen Zhen was dumbfounded.

Qin Sheng snorted coldly: "My granddaughter has worked so hard for so many days, how could she fail the exam, let's celebrate in advance."

"Yeah Zhen Zhen, don't be under pressure, no matter what you do in the exam, everyone will be happy for you." Chi Cheng also echoed.

Chi Shen nodded silently.

Qiao Zhen Zhen was helpless: "Okay, I hope I can be worthy of your celebration after my grades come out."

"It's definitely worth it, let's go in." Qin Jing said, and pushed her forward.

A group of people started laughing, and Chi Cheng refused to go home after eating out, so they went to the amusement park in the city together.

Qin Sheng and Chi Cheng were getting old. Although they suggested to come out to play, they started making noises before taking a few steps, so Qin Jing and Qin Zhao had to accompany them. In the end, only Qiao Zhen Zhen and Chi Shen were together. Hang out in a lively amusement park.

Holding hands, the two walked slowly past amusement rides, and finally stopped in a pavilion.

"Are you tired?" Qiao Zhen Zhen asked.

Chi Shen shook his head.

Qiao Zhen Zhen pulled the corner of her lips and took out a bottle of water from her backpack for him.

Chi Shen unscrewed it and handed it to her, Qiao Zhen Zhen paused: "It's for you."

"You should be thirsty," Chi Shen still looked at her, "drink more water."

Qiao Zhen Zhen's eyes moved slightly, and she suddenly felt a little irritable: "Why should you think about me first, I gave it to you, can't you drink it yourself?"

Realizing that she was angry, Chi Shen paused, and immediately took the water away, a little nervousness in his black pupils.

Qiao Zhen Zhen took a deep breath, and after restraining her emotions, she took the water from his hand, took two sips perfunctorily, and then returned it, saying with the best attitude possible: "You can drink it too."

Chi Shen held the water and didn't move, and looked at her for a long time: "Why are you angry?"

"...No." Looking at him cautiously, Qiao Zhen Zhen felt a little sour in her heart, she couldn't help reaching out and rubbing his hair, "It's a little long."

"I'll cut it tomorrow." Chi Shen said.

Qiao Zhen Zhen nodded, the two fell into silence.

The midsummer wind was very hot, and it was very dry on the body. Although the two of them were sitting under the gazebo, they quickly sweated without air conditioning.

Qiao Zhen Zhen was silent for a long time, then took the initiative to reach out to him: "Come on, I'll take you to the merry-go-round."

Chi Shen stared at her and looked at her. After confirming that she was not angry anymore, the corners of her lips curved a little and nodded earnestly.

Qiao Zhenzhen smiled and took his hand to find the merry-go-round.

Although Chi Shen's wound has scabbed over, he still cannot exercise vigorously. The two of them can only play amusement facilities with the intensity of a merry-go-round. Fortunately, the two of them are not very demanding, as long as they can act together, it is enough.

It took the two of them two hours to finally visit the amusement park, and finally appeared together at the place where the elders rested.

When they saw them walking hand in hand, Qin Sheng and Chi Cheng had mixed feelings, while Qin Jing's eyes were sore and restrained for a long time before showing any strange colors.

"I'm all tired, let's go home." Qin Jing said with a smile.

Chi Shen and Qiao Zhen Zhen looked at each other and nodded after making sure she didn't want to play anymore.

He cared about Qiao Zhen Zhen as always, but in the eyes of the elders, it already had other meanings. Thinking of his serious mental state, everyone was more or less worried, but fortunately, Chi Shen's attention was on Qiao Zhen Zhen, and they didn't find any abnormality.

When the group returned home, it was already evening, and Chi Shen, who had not fully recovered, looked tired and was pushed back to the bedroom by Qiao Zhen Zhen as soon as they got home.

"The grades are out, remember to call me." He was so sleepy, his eyes were wet.

Qiao Zhen Zhen nodded.

"Be sure to call me." He wanted to be by her side when looking at the results.

Qiao Zhen Zhen laughed: "Understood, hurry up and go to sleep."

After receiving repeated assurances from Qiao Zhen Zhen, Chi Shen went back to the room to rest, Qiao Zhen Zhen stayed at the door of his room for a long time before returning to her bedroom with her head lowered.

Night came quickly, after eight o'clock, the elders waited in the study tacitly, Qiao Zhenzhen was still lying on the bed, her eyes staring straight at the ceiling.

After a long time, the door was knocked gently, and she came back to her senses: "Who?"

"It's me," Qin Jing pushed open the door, "your class teacher said you can check your grades."

Qiao Zhen Zhen was stunned for a while, only to realize that it was already ten o'clock in the evening.

She got up from the bed, took the admission ticket, and followed Qin Jing to the study. When they were halfway there, Qin Jing suddenly stopped: "Where's Shen Shen? Go and call him out. Let's watch it together."

"……it is good."

Qiao Zhenzhen obediently went to the door of Chishen's room, she suddenly stopped when she raised her hand to knock on the door, after thinking about it, she gently twisted the doorknob, only to see that it was pitch black inside, and the shadow on the bed was motionless, obviously slept soundly.

She pursed her lips and closed the door again.

When Qiao Zhenzhen came back, Qin Jing saw that she was the only one and raised her eyebrows curiously.

"He's still sleeping, so don't disturb him." Qiao Zhenzhen said.

Qin Jing wanted to say that he came back from the hospital specially for this moment, wouldn't it be bad not to call him, but when the words came to his lips, seeing the lowness of Qiao Zhen Zhen's eyes, she didn't say anything.

The mother and daughter soon appeared in the study, and Qin Zhao turned on the computer immediately after receiving the admission ticket.

It was the peak period for checking the results, and the webpage crashed again and again, so Qin Zhao could only keep refreshing.

Qin Sheng stood beside him, his heart almost jumping out of his throat, and finally he could only grab Chi Cheng's hand: "No, I have to take a quick-acting heart-saving pill, my heartbeat is uncomfortably fast."

"Okay, don't be a demon. Besides, I'm about to suffer from high blood pressure." Chi Cheng complained.

Qiao Zhenzhen was amused by the two old men, and was about to say something when Qin Zhao exclaimed, "Go in!"

In an instant, everyone looked at the computer, and Qiao Zhen Zhen's heart also lifted.

The score came out, 630.

For a moment, only the sound of breathing remained in the study.

Qin Sheng's eyes widened, and it took a long time for him to speak with difficulty: "I... am I right?"

"It seems not." Qiao Zhen Zhen replied as calmly as possible.

This year, she made up classes every day until eleven o'clock in the evening, and her grades moved forward step by step. She could guess that she would get a good score in the exam, but she obviously didn't expect it to be so high, and her heart beat faster for a while.

"...Grandpa, give me one of your quick-acting heart-saving pills too."

After Qiao Zhenzhen finished speaking, there was a burst of cheers in the study room, Qin Sheng was as noisy as an old child Chi Cheng, Qin Zhao kept rubbing her face, Qin Jing couldn't help wiping her tears, and came to hug her from time to time.

In the midst of the excitement, Qiao Zhen Zhen turned her head accurately, and in an instant, she looked at Chi Shen who was standing outside the study.

Time seemed to slow down for a moment, and his eyes were clear and a little puzzled, as if he didn't quite understand why she broke her promise. Qiao Zhen Zhen's throat moved, she lowered her head and passed through the excited elders, and finally came to the door of the study: "Come with me, I have something to tell you."

Chi Shen paused, followed her back to the room obediently.

The moment the door was closed, the liveliness were also shut out, and the room was so quiet that one could hear each other's breathing.

Chi Shen faintly sensed that the atmosphere was not right, and took the initiative to speak: "You did well in the test." He was outside just now and heard her score.

"...If you can take the test, you will definitely do better than this one." Qiao Zhen Zhen looked at him tenderly.

Chi Shen held her hand: "It's fine now too."

Then there was silence again.

Chi Shen pursed his lips and said again: "I can't go to university."

Without grades, he couldn't accompany her to study, but he couldn't selfishly ask her to repeat the study. At this moment, he finally knew why he had been uneasy.

Qiao Zhen Zhen's eyes moved slightly: "...you can study abroad. You did very well in the competition before. Grandpa Chi made the application materials and helped you choose a good school."

"Are you going?" Chi Shen asked.

Qiao Zhen Zhen looked at him silently, the answer was self-evident.

Chi Shen's fear was finally no longer hidden: "I don't want to be separated from you."

"You can't go to university in China, I don't want to go abroad, we can only separate." Qiao Zhenzhen said seriously.

Chi Shen's face darkened: "I'll follow you."

Qiao Zhenzhen smiled: "Then what? Are you going to accompany you to read? What about your own life?"

Chi Shen said nothing, just looked at her stubbornly.

Qiao Zhen Zhen sighed: "Shen Shen, we have to be separated for a while."

"...Why?" Chi Shen's voice was hoarse, trembling faintly, "You don't want me anymore."

"I don't want you, why would I be willing to not want you?" Qiao Zhen Zhen's eyes turned slightly red, she bit her lip before continuing, "It's just that you are sick now, we have to separate..."

Facing Chi Shen's puzzlement, she took out his inspection report directly, dragged him to sit on the sofa, and explained the reason to him page by page.

Chi Shen lowered his eyes, with no expression on his face, he just silently grabbed the corner of her clothes and rubbed the fabric with his fingers unconsciously.

Qiao Zhen Zhen spoke dryly for a long time, and after drinking half a glass of water to moisten her throat, she asked in a low voice: "Do you understand now? If we want to be together for a longer time in the future, you must first treat the disease. Get cured, otherwise our future life will be full of uncertainty, which is too dangerous."

She didn't tell him that he might not like her anymore after the illness, at least not that much. She was afraid that after she said it, he was even more reluctant to leave.

However, despite her euphemism, Chi Shen refused to agree: "I won't leave."

"Why are you so disobedient," Qiao Zhenzhen frowned, "If you do this again, I won't like you anymore."

It was just an unintentional sentence, and Chi Shen's face turned white.
