Originally it was agreed to go to the amusement park the next evening, but because of the rain it was canceled. Recently Chu Yang did not check the weather forecast, so she did not know it would rain. When the two were about to go out, there was thunder, so they could only go to the movies instead, and postponed the trip to the amusement park until after the final exams.
During finals week, the library was full of people. If you didn't go to the library early in the morning, you couldn't find a seat.
So Chi Yan decided that they would study at his house. Every morning he would pick up Chu Yang by car, and send her back at night. It would be their own world again, just thinking about it made him happy.
Since Chu Yang would be going home after the final exams, she did not reject Chi Yan's requests. After all, a boyfriend still needs to spend more time with his girlfriend.
The two studied different subjects, and their grades did not require helping each other, so usually they just studied on their own. Chi Yan knew Chu Yang liked to read all kinds of ancient books, so he brought several treasured books from home for her to read, planning to sneak them back after she finished reading them.
Sometimes Chi Yan cooked lunch and dinner, sometimes they ordered takeout. If they wanted to go out for a walk they would eat out.
When they got tired from studying, they would sometimes exercise using Chi Yan's equipment. That afternoon, Chu Yang suddenly wanted to drink sugar water. They were also tired of studying, so they decided to go out for a walk and buy some sugar water on the way.
When they got to the sugar water shop, Chu Yang also wanted to eat snacks sold at the food stall in front of the shop. So Chi Yan went into the sugar water shop to buy packaged sugar water, while Chu Yang bought snacks from the street vendor.
While waiting, Chu Yang suddenly felt a chill and sinister gaze. She turned her head to look around but did not see any strange person.
When she turned back she felt it again, very strongly and dangerously, as if there was a venomous snake behind her.
Chu Yang glanced over, on the other side of the road, a black Mercedes-Benz was parked there, the back seat window was open, and a man looking in his thirties was staring at her steadily. Seeing Chu Yang look over, the man smiled, then gestured with his hand on his chest and nodded slightly, as if greeting Chu Yang.
Chu Yang frowned, those eyes...
Then the man quickly rolled up the car window, and the car left quickly.
"Miss, your order is ready," the street vendor called out to Chu Yang.
"Oh, thanks." Chu Yang came back to her senses, took the packaged food from the street vendor, and paid.
At this moment, Chi Yan also came out of the sugar water shop holding their drinks, "I'm done, do you need anything else?"
Chu Yang shook her head.
"Then let's go back."
"Okay."
In the departing Mercedes-Benz, Zhu Ying smiled and murmured, "Interesting, really interesting! Hahahahaha!"
Zhu Ying suddenly burst out laughing, "I didn't expect it, I didn't expect it."
Back at Chi Yan's place, Chu Yang asked, "Do you know what that Zhu family uncle looks like?"
Chi Yan thought for a moment, "At first glance he looks ordinary, but at second glance he seems extraordinary. He has a mole on his nose and eagle eyes."
Chu Yang thought of the man she saw today, which matched Chi Yan's description, so... that person was the Zhu family uncle?
Chu Yang thought back to her previous vomiting and pain, and now her spiritual powers had only recovered halfway. That person was definitely not a nobody. Meanwhile, Chi Yan was puzzled why she suddenly asked about him, "What's wrong?"
Chu Yang told him what happened. Chi Yan frowned and advised, "Next time you see him, remember to call me. Don't confront him alone."
Chu Yang was no fool, of course she knew, "Don't worry, I know. And now we have rule of law, he won't do anything to me."
Chi Yan was still worried, "I'm afraid he'll use other means."
Chu Yang reassured him, "Rest assured. I have the ability to protect myself, don't worry. Come try what I bought, I think it's pretty tasty. Ah~"
Chi Yan opened his mouth "Ah~" and ate what Chu Yang fed him.
The remaining days were busy but fulfilling. Zhu Ying did not appear again, and Zhu Ruxin did not come to find Chu Yang again. Everything was very peaceful.
Chu Yang had already bought her train ticket home, and also told her dad and mom the day she was going back. She bought the ticket on her phone while Chi Yan watched beside her, asking again and again, "Why don't you postpone going back for a few days?"
"Postponing for three days is fine too."
"Postponing for one day?"
Of course Chu Yang heartlessly did not agree to stay in Beijing to accompany him. She had already told her family, and Chu Luo had sent her a message saying the fruits at home were going to be harvested soon, and the wheat was also ready to be reaped, with her parents going out early and returning late every day.
Chi Yan hugged Chu Yang and buried his head in her arms, mumbling, "What should I do?"
He used to feel confused when others were lovey-dovey with their girlfriends, now it was his turn, he really didn't want to be separated from her for so long. It would be two months in the summer vacation, such a long time without seeing each other, just thinking about it made him feel awful.
Chu Yang stroked his head, "Can't we still video chat?" Although she was also reluctant to part, she really could not go soft and stay in Beijing to accompany him. Giving in once would lead to giving in a second and third time, then she wouldn't need to go home at all.
Chi Yan suddenly asked, "...Then can I come visit you?"
Chu Yang felt he was just talking: "Sure, if you don't mind doing farm work at my home, and possibly getting bitten by mosquitoes. Not only that, you may not be able to adapt to rural life either. Most importantly, are you ready to meet my parents?"
Chu Yang raised her eyebrows, "I don't mind, just wondering what you think." She had an open relationship, not afraid of her family knowing she had a boyfriend, and they probably knew already anyway since it was posted on her social media.
Chi Yan's eyes suddenly lit up, "Then it's settled."
Chu Yang: Settled what?
After finishing the last exam, everyone felt liberated.
"Ahhhhh, finally going home!" Jin Yang shouted loudly in the dormitory, she was already quickly packing her luggage, ready to go home first thing tomorrow morning.
Zhou Caicai and Qian Xin were similar, in any case they were all radiant and full of spirit, joy apparent in their eyebrows and eyes.
Some were even looking forward to their summer break already.
"I'm going to my grandma's place in the countryside this summer, my grandma's place is so fun, with lots of good food."
"My mom said our whole family is going on vacation."
"I'll probably do a summer job at a relative's place to earn money."
"Summer vacation~ summer vacation~ here we come!"
"Chu Yang, what are you going to do during the summer?" Jin Yang suddenly asked.
Chu Yang replied while chatting with Chi Yan, "Probably help out with farm work at home?"
"Farm work sounds really fun," Zhou Caicai said.
Chu Yang shook her head. She probably still didn't know that farm work was actually the toughest.
After 7pm, Chi Yan came over, and Chu Yang hurried downstairs. She was also going home tomorrow, taking the afternoon train.
Tonight Chi Yan was going to take her to the amusement park.
