Chapter 839: My Boyfriend, You are a Regular Now
At 6:50am in the morning, the shrill sound of the alarm clock cut through the quiet bedroom.
Ren Xinghe wanted to carefully break free from Ku Jie’s hand, but unexpectedly, Ku Jie also sat up from the bed.
“You can continue sleeping a little longer. It’s still early.”
Ku Jie shook his head, before he lifted the quilt and got out of bed: “I want to accompany you to visit grandma in the hospital.”
“You fell asleep last night, and your colleague called you and said that he has already found someone.” Ren Xinghe handed him his cell phone, “He said it was not particularly urgent, so I didn’t wake you up.”
Ku Jie looked at Ren Xinghe and he ran his fingers through her messy long hair as he said, “Go and wash up first. I’ll return a phone call first.”
Ren Xinghe nodded, went to the bathroom. After that, she prepared a new toothbrush and towel for Ku Jie.
When she entered the kitchen, Ku Jie was already done with his phone call: “Are you feeling better today?”
“I am fine.” Ren Xinghe took Ku Jie’s hand and rubbed it gently in her palms.
“Wait for ten minutes. I will eat breakfast with you, and go to the hospital to see grandma.”
“If I said that I might have failed the exam yesterday…what should I do?”
Ku Jie pulled her closer to him as he hugged her tightly in his arms, and kissed her on the top of her head: “It’s not a big deal. You could just extend your studies for a year then. I will accompany you.”
Ren Xinghe leaned against Ku Jie’s chest, and her voice was muffled, but she replied in a serious tone, “Don’t worry, I won’t let her succeed.”
The both of them simply cleaned up and ate their breakfast before they went to the hospital together. At this time, the doctor in the hospital had not started making his rounds yet, and Grandma Ren was still sleeping soundly.
“I heard your grandma say last night that you are taking the college entrance examination these two days. Go, I will be here with your grandma. So, don’t worry.” The kind-hearted nurse took the breakfast and urged the both of them to do what they should do. “She’s fine, don’t worry.”
Ren Xinghe looked at her grandmother on the bed and kissed the back of her hand. Then she said to the nurse: “Then I will have to trouble you.”
“Let’s go, I’ll take you to the examination room.” Ku Jie placed his hands around Ren Xinghe’s shoulders and brought her out of the hospital.
At this moment, it was still early, and it was less than half past seven. The both of them walked along the path to her school. On the way there, they also encountered many college entrance examination students.
Because Ren Xinghe usually did not have any friends, when a tall and handsome man suddenly appeared next to her, the students would naturally be curious and even stop on the road to point at them.
“That…is Ren Xinghe’s boyfriend?”
“Impossible! Could Ren Xinghe really fall in love?”
Before this, Ren Xinghe had to be careful as she was afraid of causing trouble for Ku Jie, but now, this was already the last day of the college entrance examination. So, Ren Xinghe did not care much.
Ku Jie did not mind it either and he even placed his hand around her shoulders as he sent her to the school gate.
Ren Xinghe did not move, and she simply stood quietly beside Ku Jie.
“Why aren’t you going in?”
“It’s too early, I’ll stay with you for a while.” Ren Xinghe replied.
Look carefully. At this moment, Ku Jie was wearing a casual cotton shirt on the upper body and a pair of black slacks on the lower body. It was obviously a very simple dressing but he looked very dazzling.
“What happened to your sister?”
“I found the culprit and it will be resolved soon.”
With the passage of time, there were more and more people at the entrance of the school. In order to prevent Ku Jie from ending up on the news again, Ren Xinghe took her hand out of his palm and said to him: “Go back, I’ll go in first.”
“I will pick you up for lunch later.”
“I will take the exam well, so that you can get upgraded as soon as possible.”
Ku Jie ran his fingers through her long hair and smiled silently.
…
Because there was a video evidence, Ren Xinghe’s mother who came to the house to cause trouble was accused of causing deliberate injury, and was asked by the police to return to the bureau for investigation and detention.
She would never have expected Ren Xinghe to call the police directly.
And her husband recently learned about Ren Xinghe’s rebellion. He was originally arguing for a divorce. Now that Ren Xinghe’s mother was in custody, all that she could think about was how great it would have been if she had not given birth to Ren Xinghe.
…
After finishing her last English examination, Ren Xinghe handed in the paper half an hour earlier.
The students in the exam hall did not dare to make any movements at all because they didn’t have enough time. However, Ren Xinghe could leave early every time, even for the college entrance examination.
When she walked out of the examination room, it was raining.
Ren Xinghe looked at the man holding the black umbrella outside the school gate and smiled lightly.
At this moment, all the parents waiting outside the door, only he…was the person that she liked.
Ren Xinghe walked out quickly and stepped under Ku Jie’s umbrella as she said, “I have finished the exam, and I will tell you officially, my boyfriend, that you have already become a regular.”
Ku Jie held the umbrella in one hand, and held her in the other as he said, “Congratulations to you and congratulations to me.”
The both of them left side by side from the entrance of the school. At this moment, Ku Jie suddenly said: “Your mother has already entered the detention center. I called the police yesterday.”
After Ren Xinghe finished listening to him, she squeezed his hand, and cleared her emotions as she said, “Well, just let her be then. She is not an important person to me anymore.”
“After the test, what are your plans? Do you want to travel?”
“If I leave, what will grandma do?” Ren Xinghe thought about all these years, that she had been immersed in her studies and has never gotten to visit any other places at all. Now there was time, but there was also her grandmother to take care of.
“Hmm.” Ku Jie didn’t force her, they headed directly to the hospital.
In the hospital, Grandma Ren was watching television.
She was not worried that Ren Xinghe would fail in the exam, because she knew of her granddaughter’s excellence, and she was even more at ease with Ku Jie around. So, she felt rather leisurely at this time.
The nursing worker sat beside her as she cut fruit for her. The both of them got along very well, and they looked like a mother and daughter to the medical staff.
The nurse had the last name, Yu and she lived nearby. Because of her health, she could not go to work at the unit and refused to spend time at home. So, she decided to work as a nurse to kill time. The both of them have been chattering and talking endlessly.
The nurse seemed to like the old lady very much, and she took very good care of her…
“Grandma…”
Grandma Ren looked up to see her granddaughter coming in and she waved at her: “Have you been very worried?”
Ren Xinghe rushed over and lay in the arms of Grandma Ren: “I almost hurt you.”
“What are you talking about? Grandma is already so old, so what else wouldn’t I have already experienced before? I was afraid that she would delay your college entrance examination. I will be discharged from the hospital tomorrow. Grandma doesn’t want to stay here.”
“No, the doctor says it’s okay.”
Grandma Ren looked at Ren Xinghe, and then at Ku Jie, and her eyes rolled back and forth between the two of them: “You have already finished the college entrance examination, so aren’t you planning to go out for a trip? Isn’t a graduation trip popular for kids like you?”
“I don’t want to go anywhere. Besides that, this uncle is so busy, so no one will accompany me.” Ren Xinghe used Ku Jie as an excuse.
“Don’t try and trick me.” Grandma Ren patted the back of her hand and said, “I just discussed this matter with Xiaoyu. The both of us can get along very well. So, Xiaoyu will go to the small courtyard to take care of me, and keep me company. Your dad gave me a lot of money for my medical expenses. So, I can afford it. Don’t get in my way at home. You can go wherever you want to.”
