Xu Yan was a very smart person. He knew what Tan Ron meant. According to his personality, he should be sleeping in the dormitory by now, but he was asking about a girl in the hospital. It was really strange.

Tan Rou saw his conflicted expression and knew that he hadn’t thought it through yet. Although she hoped that Shang Jin would be happy, Xu Yan was not enlightened. If she asked him to care about Shang Jin now, he would go. However, it wasn’t because he liked Shang Jin, but because of his sympathy.

“Don’t think about it anymore.” Tan Rou said, “Hurry up and go back to rest. You still have classes tomorrow.”

Xu Yan sighed. “Okay, I’ll come back tomorrow.”

Tan Rou really wanted Xu Yan to not come over tomorrow, but this was not her business. She could not stop Xu Yan from coming to the hospital to see Shang Jin.

Cold drizzles started to fall from the outside. Tan Rou reached out to catch the drizzle. The chill penetrated her bones, making her shiver uncontrollably.

“Xiao Rou.” Zhuang Liu stood under the steps with an umbrella. “Do you want to go back now?”

When Tan Rou saw Zhuang Liu, her depressed mood improved a lot. She rushed under Zhuang Liu’s umbrella and hugged him tightly. “Why are you here?”

“I saw the explosion in your school building on the news. It happened to be the laboratory building you were in. Although I knew you didn’t have an experiment today, 1 was still worried that something would happen to you, so 1 rushed over. Your counselor said that you took leave to come to the hospital, so I followed you here,” said Zhuang Liu.

“How long have you been waiting here?” Tan Rou asked.

“I don’t remember, but it wasn’t raining when 1 came.”

Tan Rou let go of Zhuang Liu. “I’ll talk to the class monitor. We’ll leave immediately.”

Zhuang Liu tilted the umbrella towards her. “I’ll wait for you.”

“Class monitor, do you need us to give you a lift?” Tan Rou turned to Xu Yan.

Xu Yan looked at Zhuang Liu and Tan Rou and shook his head. “No, I’ll leave later.”

Tan Rou didn’t insist. “Okay, then be careful on the road.”

Tan Rou and Zhuang Liu snuggled up to each other and left. Under the big black umbrella were two people who liked each other. They held each other’s arms, and their entire bodies were filled with happiness.

When Xu Yan saw them, he thought of Shang Jin. No matter how much it cost, he had to cure Shang Jin’s face. It was not for anything else, but he just did not want to see that smiling girl cry.

The next day, Tan Rou and Xu Yan both applied for leave. Xu Yan said that he wanted to go to his hometown, but Tan Rou didn’t say where she was going.

Tan Rou was very mysterious this time. Even Li Li and Tian Tian didn’t know what she was doing.

“Do you not know where Tan Rou went?” Lu Qing asked for the eighteenth time.

Li Li was annoyed by his questions. She said directly, “Rourou only told Brother Zhuang Liu. If you want to ask, you can ask Brother Zhuang Liu.”

Lu Qing couldn’t ask Zhuang Liu. It would be bad if Zhuang Liu thought that he was coveting his girlfriend.

Tan Rou and Xu Yan weren’t around, so they weren’t in the mood to eat. After finishing their meal, they went to their club activities.

Where did Tan Rou go? She went to a very secret place.

“Long time no see, Xiao Rou.” An old man with a white beard and hair said with a straight face, “How have you been all these years?”

Tan Rou smiled. “Not bad.”

The white-bearded old man said, “I heard about you from Old Wu and the others. 1 didn’t expect your brain to recover. This is something worth celebrating. When you were injured back then, 1 went to your laboratory and wanted to bring you back for treatment. Unfortunately, when I went, you had already left.”

Tan Rou said, “Thank you, Grandpa Chang. It was very complicated back then. Even if you treat me, my brain won’t recover. Don’t waste your energy.”

“Has your brain recovered?” Grandpa Chang asked curiously.

“I’ve completely recovered. Otherwise, why would I be here?” Tan Rou said.

Grandpa Chang smiled. “It’s good that you’ve recovered. Are you a university student now? Where do you go to school?”

“I’m a freshman at Capital University.” Tan Rou replied.

Grandpa Chang calculated the time. “Today isn’t a holiday. Why are you here?”

Tan Rou revealed the purpose of her trip. “I’m taking a leave from school. I was hoping to borrow a few books from here. Is it convenient for me to do so?”

Grandpa Chang said, “Of course.. Hurry up and head inside!”
