Chapter 825: Which Identity Do You Want to Know?
The wind was strong at night, and the trees in the small courtyard were rustling.
Ren Xinghe, who was exhausted and she didn’t know that Ku Jie had been to the small courtyard last night. She only knew that when she opened her eyes, she saw an unread message on his phone.
Jack Su: “Come out and I will take you to breakfast.”
Before Ren Xinghe had time to think about it, she hurriedly got up and took a look at her not too bad face. After 20 minutes of washing, she went out.
At this moment, it was only 6:30 in the morning. The sky was not clear yet. There were not many pedestrians on the road. Only the sanitation workers in orange clothes were cleaning the streets.
Ren Xinghe stood at the cross street and saw Ku Jie’s off-road vehicle on the opposite side.
After she got closer, Ku Jie got out of the car and saw that she was rubbing her hands. He took off his coat and put it over Ren Xinghe: “Why don’t you wear more when you go out?”
“Not far, the classroom is warm.” Ren Xinghe explained, “Why did you come so early?”
Someone didn’t want to say that he didn’t go back at all, so he simply came up with an excuse: “I have been out for a long time since last night. Anyway, I stayed up all night. I stopped by and had breakfast with you before I went back to sleep.”
“Oh.” Ren Xinghe had no doubt, after all, she had seen Ku Jie stayed out all night with her own eyes.
“What’s delicious nearby?”
“At the gate of the school, there is a student’s family who sold fried dumplings, but…” Now that there were day students going to school one after another, it shouldn’t be a good thing to be bumped into.
“Boarding.”
Ku Jie brought Ren Xinghe directly to the school gate, then he got out of the car to buy, and returned to the car with the warm soy milk. After that, the two of them found a relatively unobtrusive place to stay.
But between eating, Ku Jie suddenly said to Ren Xinghe: “It’s not meaningless.”
Ren Xinghe, who was eating buns, raised her head in confusion: “Huh?”
“Studying.”
Hearing these two words, Ren Xinghe was stunned. Some memories from last night quickly returned to her mind, creating a not-so-good picture.
“It’s grandma…”
“Your existence and your value do not need to be confirmed by others. You read and study for the purpose of grasping more power in the future, not for others.” Ku Jie unfolded his inner thoughts very rarely, “It is you, Ren Xinghe, who lives for yourself.”
When he said those last five words, Ku Jie seemed to be talking to himself.
Because he understood that Ren Xinghe was not the only one to be separated from her original family.
“No one can stop you from taking the college entrance examination, unless you don’t want to take it yourself.”
“No one will hinder your future, unless you feel that there is no future for yourself.”
“On the day of the college entrance examination, I will send you to school, and on the day of the college entrance examination, I will pick you up and leave school. Your grades… shouldn’t it be difficult for Nantah University?”
Ren Xinghe slowly ate the steamed buns, as if she was reminiscing the taste inside, but unknowingly, the salty taste was mixed in.
Ku Jie watched her weeping, and he reached out her hand and rubbed her hair: “Don’t keep all of these burdens to yourself.”
Ren Xinghe adjusted her emotions, paused, and said dumbly: “I was just venting my negative emotions last night. I never thought about giving up on the college entrance examination. At least, for those people, I can’t. I tried my best. The same is true now. I will not let any factors affect me. Even if I have to crawl, I will crawl to the examination room.”
“I know it all makes sense.”
“It’s just that I actually wanted to go abroad for the exam before. No matter how hard I am, as long as I don’t need to meet those few people. But now, I don’t want to. There is no need to anymore, you know? Since I was young, my grandma has been dragging me, so I know the feeling of being dragged by others, it’s very bitter and tiring. So, you are not dragging me down. You don’t need to do anything at all. It’s okay, even if you do nothing.”
“I know that there is an abyss behind me, so I choose to look forward and never look back.”
Ku Jie was very pleased after listening, and at the same time, very distressed.
Ren Xinghe was stronger than he thought, and more transparent than he thought.
What she needed was not salvation, but companionship. On the contrary, the person who really needed to be muted was himself.
“It’s almost time, go to class.”
Ren Xinghe took a look at the time, and put the remaining raw fried buns and soy milk in Ku Jie’s hands: “I’m leaving. Finish it, don’t waste it.”
Ku Jie looked at the half of the bun in his hand, and he finished everything.
The heavy night’s haze seemed to disappear suddenly.
After Ren Xinghe got out of the car, she took out her cell phone and quickly found her mother’s phone number, and then completely blocked it.
Nothing could hinder her future, not even her biological mother.
…
One week after, Ku Jie had obviously increased the number of times in the small courtyard now. He usually went there to eat at night, and by the way, he would teach children mathematics.
At this time, Grandma Ren usually hides in the room to watch TV, and she also has to close the door.
In the room, Ren Xinghe was writing a question. He looked up and saw that the door of the opposite room was closed. Suddenly he was a little confused: “How did grandma add your WeChat?”
Ku Jie flipped through the book beside her and shook his head: “I don’t know.”
“Does grandma know a lot? And, why does she worry about you so much?”
“She said she believes in your eyes.” Someone replied without blushing.
“Where do you have the confidence to meet grandma without telling me? Don’t you say wait for my college entrance examination?”
Ku Jie finally put down the book at this time and looked at the kid: “I’m going to take a pit, there’s a problem?”
Ren Xinghe smiled and shook his head: “No problem, so why must I wait for the college entrance examination to be completed? I am eighteen.”
“This is a learning atmosphere, don’t be biased.”
After receiving the warning, Ren Xinghe seemed to understand something suddenly, and couldn’t help but lower his head and laugh.
“There is a sense of crime of kidnapping a girl, right? Old man…”
“So, what time are you going to sleep tonight?” The old man tapped on her desktop.
Ren Xinghe stopped in an instant.
It was just that, after holding back for a while, still could not hold back: “What about your name? Can you tell me?”
Ku Jie ignored her, and he simply pushed the frame on the bridge of his nose.
“Selfish.” Ren Xinghe murmured, and then refocused and plunged into the learning atmosphere.
These few nights, Ku Jie stayed very late until about eleven o’clock, and he did not close the door in Ren Xinghe’s room. The both of them were generous and frank, because he knew that this would make Grandma Ren rest assured. Grandma gave them space to be alone.
After leaving the courtyard, Ku Jie got in the car, took out his cell phone, and sent a message.
Jack Su: “Which identity do you want to know?”
Ren Xinghe: “Are you a spy?”
Jack Su: “Hahaha…you can only know one tonight.”
