However, during their past dates, she would often be late, claiming it was a âwomanâs privilegeâ.
But this time, she was obviously a bit anxious but came by and didnât see Qin Zhigu waiting here?
Whatâs going on? She looked around and didnât see Qin Zhigu anywhere. Just when she was puzzled, an ambulance nearby sounded its siren. It was leaving from her old residential area, heading somewhere far away.
An ambulance, what happened, who was it for?
After her parents divorced, she and her mother moved out of their original house. Bai Changyou still owned the house, but it was mortgaged. It was said that Cai Yiren had also moved into that house. Even though she didnât occupy her bedroom, the fact her mother and she entered the house was undeniable.
However, there are other families in the community, and she didnât know who was taken for emergency care.
But here, Qin Zhigu finally sent her a message: âSorry, something came up, I canât make it today.â
For the first time being stood up, Lu Weixi sat in the cafe, somewhat at a loss.
If it was in the past, she would have demanded in indignation how dare he stand her up, Miss Bai? You better not talk to me for a day, or a week, or even a month!
But at the moment, she just replied calmly: âOkay.â
When she returned home, her mother was still there. Even though she had undergone chemotherapy, whether it was because of the treatment or not, her mother now looked so much more haggard within a month. âYouâre back? Have you met with Zhisu?â
Hearing this name, Lu Weixi felt a bit awkward.
She was originally going to Qin Zhigu today to lay everything out on the table, to make clear everything about Qin Zhiyou harassing her, her plans to stay in the country, and her motherâs illness.
She had a feeling that perhaps after laying everything out, Qin Zhigu would choose to break up. But now, leaving everything unsaid and hanging in the air, was even more unbearable for her.
ââ¦No, he had something urgent.â
Luâs mother merely responded with an âohâ, then turned around and sat on the sofa. After some thought, she said again, âIf he wants you to go abroad for study, you should go with him. Wasnât that your original dream? Besides, we still have some money at home. With your grades, you could get a full scholarship. Studying abroad wonât cost much. Donât worry about me. If something happens, I can stay in the hospital. There are enough nurses there. But Qin Zhigu is a good boy. Heâs gentle and reliable. I would be relieved if you could end up with him.â
Lu Weixi smiled, âMom, what are you thinking about? I have been given a guaranteed postgraduate recommendation, which is not easy to get. Itâs only open to the top third of the students in our class. Moreover, my mentor is a famous professor, whom many people admire. Our country is not bad either, thereâs no need to insist on studying abroad.â
Hearing this, Luâs mother knew her daughter was comforting her. Although our country is not bad now, the best architecture education is still in Europe and America, right? Having the opportunity of a fully-funded study abroad was her daughterâs dream for many years, but now her dream was compromised because of her illness and circumstancesâ¦
âBut you and Qin Zhiguâ¦â
Mentioning Qin Zhigu, the smile on Lu Weixiâs face subsided a bit: âItâs okay, Iâll go to the school tomorrow.â
However, when she went to school the next day, she was pointed at and scrutinized by others.
