Protagonist:

Li Xiulan

Before long night fell deep; Li Xiulan tidied up two empty rooms, letting Wang Xiaohua and Wang Erhai each stay in one.

Wang Xiaohua took out his mobile phone, lay on the bed, and opened the "Study the Strong Nation" app to read some things.

At this moment a WeChat verification message popped up.

Only then did Wang Xiaohua remember that his eldest sister-in-law had just pushed Zhang Ruoshui's WeChat to him, but he had forgotten to add her.

The one adding him now was definitely Zhang Ruoshui.

Sure enough, opening the verification screen, the remark on it read the three characters "Zhang Ruoshui".

Wang Xiaohua tapped "Agree".

Zhang Ruoshui immediately sent him a message:

"Have you gotten home?"

"I'm at my eldest brother and eldest sister-in-law's place."

Wang Xiaohua replied to her out of politeness.

After replying he went back into Study the Strong Nation to continue studying.

Before long Zhang Ruoshui sent another message:

"Just now your eldest sister-in-law told me you might not come chase me; is that true?"

Zhang Ruoshui went through a huge psychological struggle before sending this one message.

After sending it, she hurriedly recalled it.

But Wang Xiaohua still saw it.

Wang Xiaohua was quite speechless; with a question asked so directly, how was he supposed to answer?

He was just about to reply "It's true", the characters already typed out.

He didn't want to waste too much time.

But before he could send it, Zhang Ruoshui sent another line:

"You're free on weekends, right? How about from now on, on weekends, I come find you to hang out."

Wang Xiaohua couldn't help but stare blankly.

Zhang Ruoshui is going to take the initiative to chase him?

"Sometimes I have time, sometimes I don't."

Wang Xiaohua originally wanted to refuse, but in the end he still answered her very seriously.

"If you come, let me know in advance; if I have time I'll take you around the area, if I don't have time then you needn't come."

Mainly he didn't want his mother to worry excessively; if there really was a girl who didn't dislike his shortcomings, didn't mind that he had no car or house, wanted nothing from him, and was just willing to be with him, then being together would actually be pretty good — at least for him there would be no loss.

Of course, he didn't believe that after entering society there would still be a girl who wanted nothing from him and would be with him.

He's not some great handsome guy; what virtue or ability does he have?

Zhang Ruoshui then said:

"Then I'll come find you next weekend, okay?"

Wang Xiaohua replied to her:

"We'll see when the time comes; it's very late now, going to sleep, good night."

Zhang Ruoshui still wanted to chat, but could only reply good night.

Wang Xiaohua didn't sleep immediately; he just didn't want to continue chatting, because he still had to keep studying, and he didn't want anyone to disturb him while he studied.

At this moment Zhang Ruoshui received a WeChat message from Du Xiaojuan:

"Little Sister Ruoshui, how's the situation?"

Zhang Ruoshui sent a voice reply to Du Xiaojuan:

"Sister Juan, I did as you said; I asked him if I could come find him on the weekend, he said we'll see then — does that count as a refusal?"

Du Xiaojuan read it and couldn't help but sigh; this actually indeed counts as a polite refusal.

But Du Xiaojuan certainly wouldn't tell her the answer directly; instead she said:

"Then wait until Friday and ask him again!"

Zhang Ruoshui hurriedly said:

"Okay, Sister Juan!"

Du Xiaojuan was still a bit uneasy, then added:

"What did you just say to Xiaohua? Send me a screenshot to see!"

Zhang Ruoshui sent the screenshot; after Du Xiaojuan read it, she asked her again:

"What was that message you recalled?"

"It was what you told me — that he might not come chase me; I asked him if it was true."

Du Xiaojuan was directly rendered speechless:

"You're really stupid; can a thing like that be asked directly?"

But she typed it out, didn't send it, and deleted it again.

Right now she mustn't damage Zhang Ruoshui's self-esteem, otherwise she might also shrink back.

She must give her a bit more encouragement.

So she said to Zhang Ruoshui:

"Ruoshui, how does that saying go? A man chasing a woman is like crossing a mountain; a woman chasing a man is like piercing a layer of gauze. If you really think Wang Xiaohua is alright, then bravely go after him. He's that short, no woman looks up to him anyway. Believe me, chasing him will be super easy!"

Zhang Ruoshui questioned:

"For real? But he's from Tsinghua..."

Du Xiaojuan said:

"Of course it's real, otherwise I wouldn't be working so hard to matchmake you two! Besides, there are so many women in the whole company, I asked around all of them, and they all dislike his height! So you see, he's not that unattainable either!"

Zhang Ruoshui then said:

"Juan-jie, with you putting it like that, I have confidence again!"

Du Xiaojuan said again:

"Just, we have to be clear: you can't dislike his height!"

Zhang Ruoshui then said:

"I don't dislike it. I'm that stupid, and I don't look that great either. What qualifications do I have to be picky?"

Du Xiaojuan laughed and said:

"If you can think like that, that's great!"

In the blink of an eye, the next day arrived.

Wang Xiaohua, Wang Erhai, Wang Dashan, the three brothers accompanied their mother Li Xiulan, and together went to the hospital to visit Niu Chunsheng.

Arriving at the hospital, they discovered that Niu Linxin and Wang Xiaoqian were actually there too.

Niu Linxin was at Niu Chunsheng's bedside, crying continuously, tears flowing constantly, calling out "Dad, I'm sorry" from time to time.

She had been studying at a cram school, only getting one weekend off every four weeks. This weekend she came home, planning to ask her family for some living expenses. As a result, after returning, she discovered her father was gone.

At first she asked her mother, but her mother said her father was on a business trip, wanting to conceal the situation. However, she sensed something was wrong, and under persistent questioning, her mother finally told her the truth.

Upon learning her father had cancer, and it was already counted as late-stage, she immediately felt the sky had fallen.

She originally planned to have her mother accompany her to Guangzhou to visit her father, but her mother had to take care of her still-young son, so she didn't come along.

In the end, she called Wang Xiaoqian, who had just tested into Sun Yat-sen University, and had Wang Xiaoqian come along to accompany her.

Wang Xiaoqian originally didn't want to come out. She felt she and Niu Linxin were no longer people of the same world.

However, upon hearing Niu Linxin say that her dad Niu Chunsheng had cancer and needed surgery, she immediately changed her mind, agreeing without a second word.

In fact, for Wang Xiaoqian to be able to change her fate and have her current grades, Niu Chunsheng had also given her no small amount of help.

If that summer, Niu Chunsheng had not agreed to let her come freeload Wang Xiaohua's tutoring classes, perhaps she would be like many little sisters in the county town, unable to even test into high school, only able to go to vocational school; or even if she tested into high school, her grades would stay at the bottom, she'd just muddle through a high school diploma and come out to work.

Just when she saw Niu Chunsheng, Wang Xiaoqian was also scared a jump.

Because after Niu Chunsheng underwent chemotherapy, he had lost a lot of weight, nearly unrecognizable, almost couldn't recognize him.

Seeing her father like this, Niu Linxin only then suddenly realized how ridiculous and inappropriate her past rebelliousness had been. So this was why when Wang Xiaohua and them came in, they saw the scene of Niu Linxin crying and saying sorry at Niu Chunsheng's bedside.

"Lin Xin, don't cry. Actually, this dad of yours has many unqualified aspects too. Don't worry about me. After you go back, study hard, get into university. Xiaoqian can do it, you definitely can too."

Niu Linxin cried back:

"Okay Dad, I'll listen to everything you say. I'll definitely study hard from now on! I won't make you angry anymore. You must live on well!"
