Good Luck Time - Chap 41
”Your mother said you did very well at Mingde. I saw your transcript and it was indeed good,” he added, “I know you don’t want to see Hu Yichui. He has already transferred to another school. On the anniversary of his death, Dad also told him not to go, how about that?”
”Not very good.” Jiang Ge looked at his father and said.
His father choked and frowned, and his mother said: “Jiang Ge, you don’t want to take the college entrance examination either. So many subjects are different from what you studied before…”
”I want to take the college entrance examination.”
”What are you thinking? I think you want to be with your girlfriend,” his dad said angrily, “Don’t think I don’t know. The last time I saw your expression when you sent a text message…”
”Jiang Ge,” Jiang Ge’s mother said gently, “if you find a girlfriend and are really serious about it, do you want me to talk to her parents? It’s not impossible for you to go abroad together.”
”You have to think about it carefully,” his father said again, “You are only nineteen years old, and the world will be very big in the future——”
”——I’m not looking for a girlfriend,” Jiang Ge interrupted them expressionlessly, “I want to stay in Mingde.”
”Do you think I will believe it?” his father said, “If you keep messing with me, I will find someone to follow you at your school 24 hours a day. If you don’t believe me, I won’t be able to find your girlfriend. I want to see who has obsessed my son.” If you have five kinds of confusion and three ways, you will lose your future.”
”What are you talking about?” Jiang Ge’s mother stopped him and turned around to persuade Jiang Ge softly, “Jiang Ge, your parents are doing this for your own good. It is unrealistic for you to take the Mingde College Entrance Examination. Mom never told you. , you don’t even have a student status at Mingde.”
Jiang Ge’s phone vibrated, and he picked it up and took a look.
Tao Sizhi finally replied: “Okay then.” He made his Vulcan gesture.
The author has something to say:
Missing see @No, it’s not Pikachu. It really doesn’t matter if you don’t watch it.
Chapter 25
On Tuesday morning, Jiang Ge returned to the city and first bought the cake Tao Sizhi wanted to eat before returning to school.
On a weekday morning, there were not many people buying cakes, so Jiang Ge bought it without queuing for long.
The cake had been repackaged for the New Year, and an extra maraschino cherry was placed in the center of the cream. It looked cute, but Jiang Ge suspected that Tao Sizhi wouldn’t eat it.
He carried it back to the dormitory, and only a few minutes later, Tao Sizhi came back.
Tao Sizhi walked in alone with a thin book in his hand. When he saw Jiang Ge, he lowered his eyes and saw the cake packaging box on his table, and he immediately became happy.
”Chestnut cake.” Tao Sizhi said. He closed the door, sat on the chair, opened the box, and frowned when he saw the cherries: “I didn’t have this last time.”
”Then take it off.” Jiang Ge said.
Tao Sizhi looked at Jiang Ge: “Take it off for me. You can eat it.”
Jiang Ge had no choice but to help him eat the cherry.
The wine-soaked cherries were not unpalatable, but the taste was a bit strange. Tao Sizhi scooped out the cream stained with cherry jam with a spoon, handed it to Jiang Ge, and then changed the spoon.
Jiang Ge ate the cream he didn’t want and watched him dig out the cake seriously. After watching it for a while, he said to him: “I’m going to transfer schools and go back to my original school.”
Tao Sizhi didn’t stop eating the cake.
Jiang Ge paused, then continued: “Take another year and apply for university again. However, my schooling lasted for three years. I graduated in the same year as you, and I came back after finishing it.”
Jiang Ge didn’t say the words “Would you like to go with me” that he had thought about on the way back in the car, feeling that Tao Sizhi would probably struggle with this for a long time.
Tao Sizhi didn’t like crowds or strange places. He didn’t even want to go out of the city. Going to the Linshi beach had to be planned a year in advance, so Jiang Ge said, “I’ll be back with you during the holidays.” He thought Tao Sizhi would be unhappy, They got into trouble, lost their temper, and walked away on the spot, but Tao Sizhi still ate without any reaction, as if Jiang Ge was talking about other people’s affairs.
Jiang Ge looked at Tao Sizhi and then said, “But it’s still a long time before I go to school. Please stay with you before I leave, okay?”
After speaking, he waited for a moment, but Tao Sizhi still didn’t reply.
Tao Sizhi scooped up the cake one spoonful at a time and put it into his mouth. Each spoonful was almost the same size, as if eating cake was the most important thing in his life.
Jiang Ge watched Tao Sizhi’s mechanical eating movements for a while, then called him by name, “Tao Sizhi,” and then asked him, “Are you listening?”
Tao Sizhi’s hand holding the spoon paused, and she looked up at Jiang Ge with her eyes wide open, making Jiang Ge’s irritability disappear instantly.
The two looked at each other for a while, then Tao Sizhi put down the spoon and asked Jiang Ge very gently: “Then will you come to celebrate my birthday?”
Jiang Ge said “yes”.
After hearing this, Tao Sizhi thought for a while and then asked pitifully: “Can I go to the seaside park?”
Jiang Ge said “yes” to Tao Sizhi, and Tao Sizhi slowly showed a smile that seemed a bit forced to Jiang Ge and said “hmm”.
He stopped eating the cake, put his hands into his coat pockets, and lowered his eyes quietly, as if in a daze.
Jiang Ge looked at it for a moment and realized that Tao Sizhi seemed to be touching something, so he reached into his pocket and touched his finger and a small piece of paper that was rubbing against his finger.
Tao Sizhi stopped moving when Jiang Ge grabbed his hand. He looked at Jiang Ge and rested his face on Jiang Ge’s shoulder listlessly. His soft hair touched Jiang Ge’s skin, and Jiang Ge raised his arms to hug Tao Sizhi. Tao Sizhi raised her face again, and gently touched Jiang Ge’s chin with her chestnut-cream lips.
”Don’t you want to eat the cake?” Jiang Ge asked him.
Tao Sizhi said nothing again. She stretched out her hand and hugged Jiang Ge’s waist. After a while, she said gloomily: “Jiang Ge, you are so annoying.”
His voice was very soft, with a little confusion and complaint, as if he was angry that Jiang Ge was leaving, but also as if he didn’t understand anything.
”When we graduate from college,” Jiang Ge told Tao Sizhi what he had thought about, “we will live together, regardless of whether they agree or not.”
Tao Sizhi still held Jiang Ge, motionless. Jiang Ge touched his cheek, asked him to raise his head, and kissed him. He accepted it and said, “Yeah.”
