Chapter 15: Divergence
"Sister, don't be afraid. In the taxi, Zhao Zhiheng squeezed Lu Zhiyao's hand and comforted him softly.
He is a man in the family, and he can't mess around in the most critical moments.
Dad, you're going to be good.
When Lu Zhiyao and Zhao Zhiheng rushed to the hospital, Zhao Zhixin was already outside the emergency ward, Lu Daqing was lying inside, and Lu Zhiyao's heart was raised to his throat.
"Aunt Zhao, my dad...... How?"
"Don't worry, it's hypoglycemia caused by the intensity of work without eating in the morning, just infusion. Zhao Zhixin replied, her tone was extraordinarily gentle.
Lu Zhiyao breathed a sigh of relief and sat down on the bench in the corridor, Zhao Zhiheng sat down next to her, stretched out his hand and rubbed her hair: "Sister, I'll just say it, our dad is very healthy, and it is impossible to be seriously ill." ”
"Of course I do, and I need you to say it. Lu Zhiyao brushed his hand away, his tone was vicious, but the expression on his face softened a lot.
"Lu Daqing's family, who is Lu Daqing's family?" The doctor walked over with the medical records, and the hearts of the three people rose to their throats again, and they said in unison, "I am." ”
"Lu Daqing has so many family members?" the doctor said and laughed, "Low blood sugar is not serious, but Lu Daqing's blood lipids and blood pressure are a little high, and then you should control your diet and exercise moderately, don't eat anything that is too greasy, and it's best not to drink alcohol, it's not good for your health." ”
"Okay, we'll pay attention, thank you, doctor. ”
Lu Daqing woke up very early, low blood sugar was not a serious illness, and there was no problem with supplementing glucose, he opened his eyes faintly, and saw the three people staring at him tightly in front of him, and he was a little stunned.
"Why are you all looking at me like that?"
The three of them sat back together, Erlang's legs were cocked, and he leaned on the back of the chair and looked at Lu Daqing.
"Dad, shouldn't you explain it to us? ”
"Explain what?" Lu Daqing looked innocent.
"In short, Aunt Zhao and I will supervise you in the future, and we will be ready to meet the challenge, Mr. Lu. ”
Hypoglycemia is not a serious illness, after the glucose transfusion, the family of four was discharged from the hospital and went home in the afternoon, and the leave was also requested, Lu Daqing stayed at home with Lu Zhiyao and Zhao Zhiheng to watch TV series, and Aunt Zhao went back to work.
To say that it is worthy of the three fathers and sons, watching TV is almost the same, a "The Condor Heroes" made them chase after the dark, and after the broadcast, the three of them looked at each other, indicating that they hadn't seen enough.
"Dad, did you say that my aunt would go to Yang Guo?"
In the TV series, it was broadcast that Yin Zhiping defiled Xiaolongnu, Xiaolongnu misunderstood Yang Guo, and the two quarreled and separated.
"Yes, I remember when I was a kid reading novels and looking for them. Lu Daqing can't remember clearly, the rough paper book he read when he was a child was a fresh reading at the time, and he forgot it after so long.
"Dad, you can buy us a martial arts novel to read, the TV broadcast is too slow. Zhao Zhiheng proposed next to him.
Lu Daqing remembered the huge game console he promised Zhao Zhiheng, and he gave him a blank look with a pain in his flesh.
"At your age, don't you study and read any martial arts novels?" Saying that, Lu Daqing's eyes accidentally swept to the clock on the wall, it was almost five o'clock, he suddenly remembered that he hadn't prepared dinner yet, so he quickly got up and packed up and prepared to go to the vegetable market to buy vegetables, "Zhiyao Zhiheng stewed pot rice, I'll go to the vegetable market to buy vegetables!"
Lu Zhiyao and Zhao Zhiheng looked at each other, and finally Lu Zhiyao got up and went to wash rice and stew rice.
Zhao Zhiheng was still thinking about the martial arts novel, sneaked out of the house, and went to a nearby bookstore to read the novels that other bookstores opened and tried to read.
Lu Daqing bought a lot of meat and came back, Lu Zhiyao kept watching him while cooking, and finally the meal was served, a plate of braised pork, a plate of chicken wings, a plate of spinach, and a plate of shredded potatoes.
Lu Zhiyao calculated, his father can eat at most one chicken wing, but too much is not good.
After a while, Zhao Zhixin went home, washed his hands and prepared to eat, Lu Daqing always thought that Zhao Zhiheng was upstairs, and shouted several times but no one answered.
"Zhiheng seemed to have gone out at that time, there should be something. ”
As soon as Lu Zhiyao's voice fell, Zhao Zhiheng opened the door and came back, his face was radiant, and he was just about to reach out to take the chicken wings on the plate, but Zhao Zhixin slapped a chopstick, and withdrew his hand to wash his hands.
"Sister, do you want to know if Xiaolongnu went to find Yang Guo in the end?" While eating, Zhao Zhiheng asked Lu Zhiyao with great interest.
"You know?" Lu Zhiyao raised his eyelids in disbelief and asked.
"Of course I know, I just went to the bookstore across the street from the neighborhood to see it, and the little dragon girl ......"
"Zhiheng, food is silent. Zhao Zhiheng said that the key place, Zhao Zhixin interrupted him, Zhao Zhiheng stopped talking and lowered his head to eat, Lu Zhiyao was a little unhappy in his heart, lowered his head and took a bite of rice, and took a chicken wing from the plate.
Lu Daqing followed her and was about to clip it, but she stopped him.
"Dad, you have eaten two chicken wings, be careful of your high blood lipids. ”
"Daddy eats one more, just one. Lu Daqing said that he wanted to clip it, but was forced back by Zhao Zhixin's eyes, and silently turned his head to clip a chopstick spinach.
Lu Zhiyao chopped the rice in a muffled voice, and went upstairs after eating.
She wanted to ask Song Xiu how his health was, she didn't know if he called when she wasn't at home, whether he had eaten dinner, and whether he had taken medicine on time.
But thinking that my stepmother was still downstairs, I thought about it and forgot it.
At night, Lu Zhiyao was lying on the bed and was about to fall asleep, someone downstairs hit her window with a small stone, she was woken up, got up and pushed open the window, and reprimanded her viciously and in a low voice outside.
"Pan Siyi, are you sick?"
The only person who can knock on her window so late is Pan Siyi.
"Zhiyao, let's go to the Internet café together? Didn't you still look at that sketchpad last time?" Pan Siyi waved her hand at Lu Zhiyao excitedly below, but she was a little lacking in interest.
"It's so late, let's talk about it tomorrow, and I don't have enough money to buy a sketchpad. Lu Zhiyao shook his head and looked at Pan Siyi's face with some small scars, "You are not in good health, don't go around, the Internet café is not safe at night, go home and sleep." ”
Pan Siyi frowned slightly, he always felt that Lu Zhiyao was not the same as before, but he couldn't think of anything different, but he still smiled and beckoned to her, "I can't sleep, Zhiyao, the moon is so bright tonight, you come down and talk to me." ”
"Okay, you wait for me for a while. Lu Zhiyao quietly went downstairs, at this time Lu Daqing and Zhao Zhixin were asleep, the house was quiet, she opened the door, carefully closed the door, and ran to the yard to meet Pan Siyi.
"Aren't you usually quite able to sleep, why can't you sleep today?" The two of them found an open place to sit down, the summer wind was gentle and gentle, and the person who blew was a little sleepy, Lu Zhiyao yawned and asked.
"I just can't figure out what I'm going to do in the future. Pan Siyi replied, he has been lying at home for nearly a summer vacation, the TV is almost let him see through, when he is bored, he will also think about the not so distant future, the third year of high school at the beginning of school, his academic performance is not good, whether he can go to college in the future is a problem, how can he not be entangled.
"It's not like you. Lu Zhiyao curled the corners of his lips, "It's not like you've never considered these illusory questions before. ”
"You stay at home for two months and try to make sure you think about it too. Pan Siyi sighed slightly, the moon in the sky was slightly bent into a big crescent, like a bitten moon cake, the moonlight was cold and translucent, and the hearts of those who saw it were also a little translucent, "Besides, let's be in the third year of high school." ”
"In the third year of high school, you can catch up if you study hard, get admitted to a good university, how about we go to Shencheng to study together?" Lu Zhiyao turned her head and proposed, her eyes were shining, looking at Pan Siyi, her eyes were full of expectations for the future.
That kind of look is different from the look in the eyes of looking at the sketchpad with him in the Internet café before.
He couldn't tell.
"Why do you want to go to Shencheng?" asked Pan Siyi, a little sluggishly.
"Shencheng University is one of the best universities in the country, and you don't want to go to school?"
Pan Siyi looked at the sky and did not answer.
He didn't really want to go.
Don't you want to draw? You said that going to school is not your pursuit. He wanted to ask, but he didn't.
Lu Zhiyao was extremely sleepy, Pan Siyi watched her enter the house, the light in the room went out, and he stood downstairs for a while, knowing that the wind was blowing in the sky and a cloud blocked the moonlight, so he started to go home.
At noon the next day, Lu Zhiyao slept lazily, Zhao Zhiheng watched TV downstairs at half noon, she hadn't gotten up yet, and finally Song Xiu came, Zhao Zhiheng shouted at her.
"Sister, Brother Song Xiu is here! don't sleep!!"
Lu Zhiyao jumped up from the bed with a spirit, folded the quilt at the speed of light to arrange his hair and appearance, and on the other side, Song Xiu was already going up the stairs, Lu Zhiyao sorted out his breathing and opened the door.
"Why are you here so early?"
"It's not early. Song Xiu curled the corners of his lips and replied, "You slept too late." ”
"Give me five minutes!" Lu Zhiyao rushed into the bathroom to wash, while Song Xiu sat in front of the desk, took out a few test papers from his schoolbag, looked at the blue sky outside the window, and patiently waited for Lu Zhiyao to wash.
After Lu Zhiyao finished washing up, when he returned to the desk, his hair was still dripping, and Song Xiu took a tissue from the side and handed it to her.
"School is about to start, so I won't tutor today, do a set of questions, and see how your learning results are this summer. ”
"Oh. Lu Zhiyao sat down, honestly put out the pen, and stared at the paper to do the question.
She did the math paper first, and after finishing it, she handed it to Song Xiu for correction, and then English, Song Xiu put the listening tape into the repeater, pressed the play button on the side with her index finger, the tape turned up, and the familiar female voice began to read the question.
Zhao Zhiheng was originally sitting downstairs watching the TV series, although he had read most of the novel and understood the general plot, but watching TV was another feeling, and he had completely forgotten the tasks assigned by his father.
By the time Zhao Zhiheng remembered it, Lu Zhiyao's English papers were already halfway done. He took advantage of the advertising time to cautiously go upstairs and take a look at the crack in the door.
Fortunately, the two of them sat there honestly, and there was no overstepping the norm, Zhao Zhiheng breathed a sigh of relief and quietly went downstairs to watch TV.
Song Xiu finished grading the math papers, and bent the corners of his lower lip with some satisfaction, Lu Zhiyao saw that he had scored, and hurriedly came over to take a look.
Chapter 16 Unforgettable?
"One hundred and twenty-seven?!" Lu Zhiyao looked at the red number, a little surprised, "Is it really one hundred and twenty-seven?"
"Maybe I can still help you cheat. Song Xiu smiled lightly, "The grades are good, I haven't studied in vain in the past two months." ”
Lu Zhiyao's English is a weakness, and two months is not a very long time, so the improvement is not so fast, just 100 points, the results of the three courses of physics, chemistry and biology are good, all of them have reached 90 points, it may be that he really wants to test the results, Song Xiu also used a red pen to score the whole process when he read the papers, and he was not ready to let Lu Zhiyao correct the wrong questions later.
Although Lu Zhiyao's grades are not top-notch, he will definitely be ranked in the class.
She has the brain to study science, understands the topic quickly, works hard in science, can reach 280 points or even more in the college entrance examination, and the same is true for mathematics, as long as she does not slack off in the coming year, 140 points is no problem.
"Remember what you said last time?" Song Xiu put away the scroll and turned his head to look at Lu Zhiyao, the two of them were very close, and they each turned their heads to look at each other, feeling that the distance was surprisingly close.
"What?" Lu Zhiyao asked stupidly.
"Apply for Shen University," Song Xiu held the red pen in his hand, his palms sweating slightly, "Learn English and Chinese well in the third year of high school, I'll wait for you at Shen University." ”
"Hmm. Lu Zhiyao's eyes were shining, and he nodded vigorously.
"I'm going to Shencheng tomorrow, I have some things to deal with, and I'll call you when I come back. ”
"Stay at home and review well, it's the third year of high school at the beginning of school, and work hard. ”
"I'll be back in two days, don't make trouble, and don't stimulate Jiang Tao, you know?"
Song Xiu didn't hear what Lu Zhiyao said, she was a little distracted, she just nodded stupidly.
"I also want to go to Shencheng. After Lu Zhiyao reacted, he made a weak proposal.
"What are you going to Shencheng?" Song Xiu smiled and said in a soft tone, "Study hard this year, and you won't be able to go next year." ”
He went to go through the procedures for deferring his enrollment, and it was best not to let her know until he was successful.
"I won't be distracted, I promise!" Lu Zhiyao solemnly stretched out three fingers.
"Uncle Lu is still afraid that I will abduct you, you stay at home honestly and come back to bring you a reward. Song Xiu thought about Lu Daqing's vigilance against him, if he knew that he had taken his daughter to other places, he would have to chase after him with a knife.
"What reward?" Lu Zhiyao's attention was diverted, and he quickly forgot about going to Shencheng.
"The reward for your hard study during this time, in short, listen to me, stay at home, watch TV series, do problems, and don't go out to make trouble. ”
"Oh. Lu Zhiyao nodded.
"Sister, it's getting dark, let's stew. Zhao Zhiheng poked his head out of the crack in the door at the right time and interrupted the words of the two people.
He stood in the corner of the wall outside for most of the day, and he didn't come out again to say that the two of them could talk until it was dark.
"Don't forget my words," Lu Zhiyao packed his schoolbag and walked out, Zhao Zhiheng followed behind him, "Brother Song Xiu, I'll send you." ”
When he went out, Zhao Zhiheng's expression changed, and his face changed from serious at the beginning.
"Brother Song Xiu, don't you have a fever, right?" Zhao Zhiheng shook his hand hesitantly and asked a question that was not related.
"Well, thank you, Zhiheng. Song Xiu nodded, knowing that what he was going to say was not this.
"That...... My dad is very wary of you, you know?"
"Precautions?" Song Xiu raised his eyebrows slightly, silently.
"I'm just worried that you will abduct my sister," Zhao Zhiheng got straight to the point, and said everything that should be said and what should not be said, "I know that it is not easy for my sister, a tigress, to be looked at, so I will not be an obstacle to the two of you, but I also have a task to ...... You will stick to it until school starts, and when I finish my mission, I will set off firecrackers for you and my sister to celebrate......"
The more you talk about it, the more you talk about it.
"Zhiheng," Song Xiu interrupted Zhao Zhiheng's words in time, "You think too much." ”
Where is Lu Zhiyao, a tigress, in essence, just a kitten dressed as a tiger.
Song Xiu stretched out his hand and patted Zhao Zhiheng's shoulder, turned around and left with his schoolbag, Zhao Zhiheng scratched his head in confusion behind him.
Could it be that he was wrong, Brother Song Xiu didn't like his family Lu Zhiyao?
He said, a top student of Shencheng University, a young talent and handsome, why might he like someone else's Tyrannosaurus rex?
Wrong...... What are high-achieving students, why can't they look down on their Tyrannosaurus rex?
"Superficial!" Zhao Zhiheng snorted coldly, turned around and entered the house, and slammed the door shut.
When he entered the living room, Lu Zhiyao was humming a song and standing in the kitchen stewing rice, looking in a good mood.
Zhao Zhiheng was even more upset inexplicably.
"Sister, don't be obsessed with other people's Song Xiu, they don't like you. ”
As soon as the words fell, Zhao Zhiheng regretted it, he was ready to meet Lu Zhiyao's critical attack, but he didn't expect her to just look back at him with a slight shyness.
"What do you never forget? Have you read too many romance novels?"
As he spoke, Lu Zhiyao closed the lid of the rice cooker, pressed the switch, and went upstairs to his room.
Look at her blushing face, with a hint of a smile on the corner of her mouth, how can you look at it?
It's confusing.
However, since Song Xiu didn't have any thoughts about his Tyrannosaurus Rex, he would be relieved, and he would just play his game console with peace of mind when school started.
Zhao Zhiheng never expected that he would be wrong, and when he suddenly became enlightened, it was too late.
Song Xiu didn't come to tutor for two days, Lu Zhiyao seemed to have lost his soul, the strength of his whole body seemed to be drained, he got up in the morning to wash, and then stared at the TV, his eyes were blank, she didn't laugh when she was funny, she didn't cry when she was moved, Zhao Zhiheng felt like a zombie sitting next to him, and it was boring to watch, so he went to the next door and pulled Pan Siyi into the Internet café.
"Si Yi, go to the Internet café?" Zhao Zhiheng knocked on the door of Pan Siyi's house, and saw that he looked depressed, "Tut" twice, "Are you growing hair at home?"
"Recuperate, do you understand that I'm recuperating from illness?" Pan Siyi rolled his eyes, turned around and went back to lying on the sofa, a very old cartoon was playing on the TV, and the sound was so small that he couldn't hear it clearly.
"I haven't broken my leg, it's not enough to lie down for two months? Let's go, let's go to the Internet café together, I haven't been there for a long time. Zhao Zhiheng walked over and pulled Pan Siyi's arm.
"Don't go. Pan Siyi refused without thinking about it.
"No, you didn't always go to the Internet café noisily before, how did you change sex now?"
"Before, it was because of ......" because I bought a sketchpad for Lu Zhiyao. Pan Siyi choked in his throat in the middle of his words, was silent for a long time, and picked up his coat from the side, "Let's go." ”
The two of them, one happy and the other sullen, stepped into an Internet café not far from home.
One turned on the phone and beat the King of Fighters, and the other turned on the phone and only knew how to look at shopping websites.
The sketchpad that Lu Zhiyao likes is not enough money.
"Still looking at the sketchboard?" Zhao Zhiheng leaned over and looked at it, disapproving, "That sketchpad is too expensive, even if you buy it, my dad will definitely let my sister return it to you, he doesn't like to be wasted the most." ”
After saying this, Zhao Zhiheng thought about it again, it didn't seem right, didn't Song Xiu go to his house to tutor his homework?
What a good friendship his old father and Uncle Song were.
"Yes. Pan Siyi sighed, closed the shopping website, opened the game, and plunged into it.
The two of them played from the morning to the afternoon when their parents were about to get off work, and then they hurriedly checked out and rushed home.
This lasted until the school year was about to start.
So when Song Xiu called home, Zhao Zhiheng was still in the Internet café and had a lot of fun.
Knowing that Song Xiu was going home that day, Lu Zhiyao had been waiting in front of the phone since the morning, and only received a call from Song Xiu's house in the afternoon.
"Hey, Song Xiu?"
"It's me. There was a bit of tiredness and a smile on the side of life, "Are you at home?"
"Hmm. Lu Zhiyao nodded.
"Wait for me in a moment. ”
"Hmm. ”
Song Xiu's house is still a long way away from her house, even if it takes more than ten minutes to ride a bicycle, the TV is on, Lu Zhiyao is a little excited and a little nervous and waits for about ten minutes, the knock on the door sounds, and she hurriedly runs over to open the door.
"Take it apart. Song Xiu moved in a cardboard box, which looked quite big, and put it in the living room, Lu Zhiyao looked at him curiously, he only said to let her open it first.
Lu Zhiyao carefully opened the box, inside was a complete set of painting tools, brand new, the one they didn't dare to look at before, Lu Zhiyao's eyes lit up suddenly, holding the painting tools and carefully putting them back into the box, getting up and looking at Song Xiu, his eyes slowly turned red.
"Why did you give me this?"
"It's a commemoration of my first successful tutoring assignment and a reward. Song Xiu smiled and touched Lu Zhiyao's head, "I'm so moved, right?"
"Hmm. Lu Zhiyao nodded violently, not to mention being moved, she was about to hug his thigh excitedly.
"Then study hard, and next year we will go to Shenda together to report. Lu Zhiyao bent the corners of his lips and rubbed Lu Zhiyao's hair.
"Let's report?" Lu Zhiyao was still immersed in joy, but when he heard Song Xiu say this, he frowned suspiciously, "Aren't you going to report at the beginning of school?"
"I applied for a deferment of enrollment. Song Xiu replied, and Lu Zhiyao's expression collapsed at a speed visible to the naked eye.
There was a momentary touch and impulse in her heart, feeling that Song Xiu chose to postpone her enrollment for her, and as soon as this idea came out, her joy of getting the new painting tools was washed away, and there were only doubts and worries left in her eyes.
"Why? Your grades are so good, what should you do if you can't keep up with the postponement of enrollment? The most important thing is why do you want to postpone enrollment?" Lu Zhiyao's anxious tears were about to come out, and the person in front of him was still smiling.
"The main reason is that I am too tired after studying for 18 years, and I want to take a break for a while, and then take advantage of this year to do what I haven't done before, and by the way, I took the assistant medical exam. ”
Song Xiu's face was calm and light, and Lu Zhiyao was also easy to deceive, really thinking that he was also a person who was tired of going to school like she used to, and his expression slowly softened.
