(I have to go out tonight. Updated in advance. Thank you for your support.)
Back in the dorm, the four of them were drunk, and Hao Ren was the most sober one among them.
Hao Ren was supposed to stay in the dorm with Zhao Jiayi, but he missed his grandma who had just been discharged from the hospital. Besides, he wanted to ask for Zhao Guang's opinion on this matter. Therefore, he took the documents and went to Zhao Yanzi's home.
When he arrived at Zhao Yanzi's home, it was already seven o 'clock in the evening. Zhao Hongyu had just cleaned the table and was watching TV with Hao Ren's grandma while chatting.
When Hao Ren entered the room, he was surprised to see Grandma's radiant face.
"Ren, we were just talking about you. We thought you weren't coming today," sitting on the sofa, Grandma looked at Hao Ren and said with a smile.
"I had something to do at school today, so I'll come later. How's Grandma?" Hao Ren asked.
"Hehe! Better than before. Even my blood pressure is down! "Grandma answered with a loud voice.
Hao Ren saw that Grandma looked good as well. She didn't look like someone who had just recovered from a serious illness. Instead, she looked a few years younger than before.
Standing beside Grandma, Zhao Hongyu smiled and didn't say anything.
"After all, Hongyu took good care of me. She made chicken soup for me every day, so I'm recovering better than before!" Grandma looked at Zhao Hongyu and continued.
Hao Ren thought that Zhao Hongyu might have put some elixir pills in the chicken soup. Looking at her smile, it was quite possible. Of course, it could also be that Grandma was in a good mood and recovered quickly.
Seeing that Grandma was getting better, Hao Ren was finally relieved. He asked Zhao Hongyu, "Where's Zi?"
"She's doing her homework upstairs. You go up, and I'll chat with your grandma," Zhao Hongyu said gently.
"Ok!" Hao Ren went upstairs with the documents in his hand.
Looking back at Zhao Hongyu and Grandma in the living room, he found that they were getting along even better than Grandma and her daughter-in-law. "What a wonderful world!"
He came to Zhao Yanzi's room and pushed the door open quietly. He saw Zhao Yanzi lying on the desk, doing her homework.
Hearing the noise, she turned around and saw Hao Ren. "Humph!"
"What? What did I do to piss you off this time? "Hao Ren walked over and returned the textbooks Zhao Yanzi had lent him last time.
"My mom cooked a lot of your favorite dishes, and you just called and told me you weren't coming," Zhao Yanzi said with a pout.
"Oh?" Hao Ren didn't know about this. He was surprised and touched.
"Something happened at school today, so I couldn't come," Hao Ren explained as he sat beside her and took out the documents from the bag.
Zhao Yanzi puffed up her cheeks like a pufferfish and ignored him.
"This Friday is the midterm exam, right?" Hao Ren asked her.
"Ok." Zhao Yanzi nodded slightly.
She was wearing a printed cake shirt and khaki mid-length pants. She was lively and playful, and there was a kind of extra sweetness to her. Her petite body exuded a light aroma, and it assaulted Hao Ren's sense of smell.
She was indeed the daughter of the famous designer Zhao Hongyu. Even the clothes she wore at home were so beautiful.
"Then, let's review one last time," Hao Ren said as he spread out the materials.
After reading the textbooks Zhao Yanzi gave him, Hao Ren had a clear understanding of their progress in Grade Eight. He also knew which parts to focus on, and he had a clearer direction for Zhao Yanzi's midterm exam.
This time, Zhao Yanzi didn't argue. She actually followed Hao Ren's train of thought and began to review. Today's tutoring session was the smoothest since Hao Ren started tutoring her.
Hao Ren felt that Zhao Yanzi really wanted to learn something this time. It seemed like she was ready to take the midterm exam seriously.
Two hours had passed unknowingly as he sorted out and consolidated the important points of each subject for her.
Hao Ren suddenly stopped the class and said to her, "Go to bed early. I'm going to visit my grandma."
"Ok." Zhao Yanzi nodded and buried herself in the notes of today's class.
Hao Ren was stunned when he saw her obedient look. He almost wondered if the person in front of him was Zhao Yanzi.
He quietly left the room and went to visit Grandma in the room next door.
"Are you done tutoring Zi?" Grandma was lying on the bed and didn't sleep. It seemed like she knew Hao Ren would come to visit her.
"Yeah. I'll teach the rest in a few days," Hao Ren answered as he sat beside Grandma's bed.
"Ren, I have a feeling that your relationship with Zi's family isn't that simple. But when I asked Hongyu, she always said that you are just Zi's tutor. "Grandma looked at Hao Ren and asked," Are you hiding something from me? "
"Uh … nothing," Hao Ren shook his head and said, "I just have a good relationship with her family."
"Well, no matter what, Hongyu's family saved Grandma's life. You must tutor Zi well," Grandma touched Hao Ren's shoulder kindly and said.
During the few days she lived in Zhao Hongyu's home, Zhao Hongyu's family treated her as if she were their elder. They were respectful and considerate, which made Grandma feel like they were really kind people.
As for Ah Zi, she would come to greet her every morning and evening. Not only would she wake her up for breakfast in the morning, but she would also come to ask about her physical condition after school at night, which made Grandma feel that Ah Zi was well-behaved and sensible. The more she saw her, the more she liked her.
Grandma had made up her mind that her relationship with Zhao Hongyu's family would not be severed even if she recovered and went back to live by the sea. Moreover, she planned to let her son get to know Zhao Guang's family. No matter how busy he was, he would make time to visit them. The two families must be friends for generations.
"It's a pity that Zi is a few years younger, and Ren and Zi don't have a relationship. Otherwise, it would be nice if they could be a couple since they are of the same age …" Gradually, Grandma's old ideas resurfaced in her mind.
She always thought that Zhao Hongyu couldn't be her daughter-in-law, but it would be nice if they could be in-laws.
"It's a pity that Zi is too young to be Ren's girlfriend."
Of course, Hao Ren didn't know that Grandma was thinking about the old ideas in her mind. He just chatted with her and talked about school, just like when he was with Grandma by the sea.
Another half an hour passed, and it was time for Hao Ren to go back to school.
Seeing that Hao Ren was going back to school, Grandma was very sad. "Hongyu just told me that you can stay here tonight. You can sleep in my room or the design room in the attic."
"It's ok, Grandma. I'll go back to school. It's not good to stay outside all the time, "Hao Ren tried to comfort her. He was worried that Zhao Jiayi was in a bad mood and wanted to comfort him when he got back.
"You're right. It's not good for you to stay away from school all the time. You should go back to school early." Grandma hoped that Hao Ren could stay the night, but she didn't want him to delay his studies.
"Ok. Have a good rest, Grandma. I'll come back tomorrow anyway." Hao Ren got up from the bed, looked around the clean new room, and walked out of the door.
From the hallway on the second floor, Hao Ren saw that the light in the study room next to the living room was still on. He guessed that Zhao Guang hadn't gone to bed yet. He walked down the stairs and saw Zhao Guang in a loose shirt reading documents in the open study room.
He walked to the study room and knocked on the door.
Zhao Guang looked up and saw Hao Ren. He nodded slightly and said, "Come in."
"Uncle, I have something to discuss with you," Hao Ren said as he entered the study room and looked up at the clock on the wall. It was almost 10 o 'clock.
"Zi's dad always looks like he doesn't like to talk, but he is really busy. I don't know if he will be annoyed if he gets involved in such a small school matter." Hao Ren thought to himself.
"Go ahead." Zhao Guang put down the documents in his hand and looked at Hao Ren.
"Um, it's like this. One of my roommates got into a fight with the basketball team today …"
Hao Ren told him the whole story. Zhao Guang sat on the chair and listened quietly without any expression on his face.
"That's what happened? You were involved in the fight too? "Zhao Guang asked after Hao Ren finished speaking.
Hao Ren nodded. After all, Zhao Guang wasn't his father. Hao Ren felt a little awkward asking Zhao Guang to help him.
Moreover, Hao Ren had already disturbed them once because of Grandma's matter. Grandma was still living in their house, and this time, he needed their help because of the school. Hao Ren was already shy, and now he was even more worried that Zhao Guang would think that he was insatiable and insatiable.
"You don't have to come to me for this kind of thing," Zhao Guang looked at Hao Ren and said coldly.
Hao Ren's heart sank. As expected, Zhao Guang was unhappy.
"You can go to Lu Qing tomorrow," he continued.
Just when Hao Ren was about to leave with a red face, Zhao Guang said, "But I will also call the Principal later to tell him about this. Your classmate is called Zhao Jiayi, right? "
A glimmer of hope lit up in Hao Ren's heart. He looked at the cold but willing Zhao Guang and said gratefully, "Yes, thank you, Uncle!"
"It's okay. From what you said, you guys didn't make a big mistake, and I hope the school can handle this fairly. Anyway, be careful in the future. "Zhao Guang looked up at the clock on the wall and said," How about staying here tonight? "
"No, I'd better go back to school early," Hao Ren said.
"I still have a lot of things to take care of here. Is it okay for you to take the bus back?" Zhao Guang asked.
"No problem! Thank you, Uncle! "Hao Ren turned around and walked out of the study room.
He went back to the second floor and entered Zhao Yanzi's room. He wanted to take her tutoring materials, but he found that Zhao Yanzi had fallen asleep on the desk.
Hao Ren tiptoed to the desk and looked at her reddened hands and face. He thought to himself, "She's really working hard for this midterm exam. I've never seen her study so hard before."
Hao Ren didn't have the heart to wake her up since she was sleeping soundly. However, he was afraid that she would catch a cold, and he was even more afraid that she would wake up with a sore back. After some consideration, he bent down and put one hand under her knees and the other on her back, gently lifting her up.
Zhao Yanzi seemed to be in a deep sleep. She didn't wake up even after Hao Ren lifted her up. Her eyes were still closed, and her breathing was even.
Holding the soft Zhao Yanzi in his arms, Hao Ren lowered his head and smelled her fragrance. Then, he moved her half a step to her small bed and pulled up the quilt for her. Then, he picked up his tutoring materials and tiptoed to the door. He turned off the main light and left a small one on. Then, he walked out of the room and closed the door.
As the door was closed, Zhao Yanzi, who was in a 'deep sleep', slowly opened her eyes, and her face instantly turned red.
"Asshole …" she murmured in her mind.
