by VolareChapter 59: Crap, Why is He Bald?
[Bewilderment Value 9999]
Ji Shu stared at Rong Ziyan, seemingly not understanding what he was thinking. It wasn’t until a long time passed that he showed a hint of grievance. Then, he buried his head in Rong Ziyan’s shoulder and didn’t speak.
System: Crap, crap! He’s been mentally and physically broken by your straight-man behavior!
Rong Ziyan: Don’t talk nonsense, he might be delirious from the fever.
Rong Ziyan, being someone who could single-handedly wrestle a three-hundred-pound boar, directly carried Ji Shu on his back and ran towards the school infirmary.
Ji Shu’s soft breaths tickled Rong Ziyan’s neck, and he was burning hot. Even though Rong Ziyan was just a veterinarian, he could tell that Ji Shu’s temperature was at least 39.5 degrees Celsius.
Sure enough, when they arrived at the infirmary, they took his temperature, and it was 39.7 degrees. It was the same temperature as when Rong Ziyan had a fever before.
“You young people! None of you pay attention to your health. When you get old, all kinds of illnesses will come knocking,” the school doctor said, nagging at them while preparing the medicine.
Ji Shu was clearly delirious from the fever. He kept staring at Rong Ziyan, and when the needle was inserted into the back of his hand, he frowned and leaned into Rong Ziyan’s arms.
“What’s wrong?” Rong Ziyan thought he was too uncomfortable to sit still and wanted to discuss with the doctor whether they should arrange for Ji Shu to lie down on a bed.
However, he was shocked by Ji Shu’s next words.
Ji Shu held Rong Ziyan’s waist tightly with one hand and whispered, “Brother, it hurts.”
Rong Ziyan: “???”
System: Crap! Are you two relatives?
Rong Ziyan: Don’t talk nonsense, I only met him in the village.
But Ji Shu, who was confused by the illness, clearly didn’t recognize anyone and clung to Rong Ziyan, refusing to let go.
In the end, Rong Ziyan had no choice but to change to a comfortable position for both of them and let Ji Shu hug him.
Unlike Rong Ziyan’s quick recovery, Ji Shu’s constitution was clearly worse. After two bottles of medicine were infused, his temperature only dropped slightly, and he was still drowsy and couldn’t open his eyes.
His phone was also dead, and Rong Ziyan couldn’t do anything about it for the time being. In the end, he had to carry him back to the dormitory again.
Ji Shu slept for a long time, only opening his eyes at one o’clock in the morning. He was surprised to find himself in darkness.
Ji Shu shivered instinctively and was then pulled into someone’s embrace.
Ji Shu’s whole body stiffened. He carefully turned his head and saw Rong Ziyan’s sleeping face. Then, his heart, which had been suspended in the air, slowly fell back down.
Most likely because Ji Shu had moved too much before, Rong Ziyan gradually opened his eyes as well.
“Awake? Then take your medicine first,” Rong Ziyan sat up after a while.
He first turned on the bedside lamp, then got out of bed to get Ji Shu’s medicine. The sober Ji Shu was clearly much calmer and could communicate smoothly.
After taking the medicine obediently, he apologized to Rong Ziyan, “Sorry, I’ve troubled you.”
“It’s okay, I happen to have a day off today.” Rong Ziyan had bought porridge earlier, and now that it was summer, although it wasn’t hot, it wasn’t too cold either. So, he waited for Ji Shu to finish taking his medicine and directly handed it to him.
“Thank you.” Ji Shu took it and quietly ate the porridge with the bowl in his hands.
After all, he was sick. After eating something, the medicine started to take effect, and he began to feel sleepy again. Rong Ziyan took the empty bowl from his hand, gave him a glass of water to rinse his mouth, and then pressed him back onto the bed to sleep.
Then, after getting himself tidied up, he got into bed as well.
“That, you…” Ji Shu was shocked by Rong Ziyan’s actions.
Rong Ziyan pushed him further inside, “Hurry up, I have an experiment tomorrow morning.”
Ji Shu: …
Rong Ziyan fell asleep quickly, and after a while, he was in a sound sleep.
Ji Shu lay next to him, but he gradually lost his sleepiness.
They were too close, so close that he could feel Rong Ziyan’s breath, which was falling on his neck.
But before he could let his imagination run wild, Rong Ziyan’s hand suddenly fell on his waist, and then Ji Shu was completely pulled into Rong Ziyan’s arms.
Now, Ji Shu was even more unable to sleep. He thought to himself, after not seeing each other for many years, not only had Rong Ziyan’s age suddenly become younger than his, but he also didn’t remember him. Yet, the fact that he liked to hug things while sleeping had not changed at all.
Turning his head, Ji Shu stared at Rong Ziyan’s sleeping face for a long time. It wasn’t until a long time had passed that he slowly let out a breath.
He didn’t want to dwell on it anymore. It was enough that he had found him. As for why he was different from what he remembered, he would find the answer sooner or later.
Therefore, after relaxing his body, Ji Shu gradually fell asleep in Rong Ziyan’s arms.
The next morning, Rong Ziyan’s biological clock woke him up on time. He glanced at Ji Shu, who had crawled into his quilt while sleeping, and Rong Ziyan didn’t feel anything. He just assumed that Ji Shu had bad sleeping habits. Then, he went out to get food for Ji Shu, placed the medicine, and left for the laboratory.
However, not long after he left, Ji Shu woke up. Looking at the medicine and food on the table by the bed, Ji Shu picked up the note Rong Ziyan had left and looked at it for a while. Then, he followed the instructions on it one by one. After folding the quilt and ventilating the room, he left with the trash.
Knowing that Rong Ziyan had an experiment in the morning, Ji Shu didn’t call Rong Ziyan. Instead, he sent a message, “Thank you for saving my life. I don’t know how to repay you, how about I offer myself?”
When Rong Ziyan saw this message, it was already noon. The system was very excited.
“Crap, crap! Hero saving the beauty really works, Rong! Finally, there’s a brave person throwing themselves into your arms!”
However, Rong Ziyan directly replied to Ji Shu, “You still have a fever, remember to go to the hospital for another shot. The school doctor said your condition is quite serious.”
“…” [Bewilderment Value from Ji Shu 4000]
The system was heartbroken: Rong! You’ve ruined your love luck again.
Rong Ziyan said righteously: Don’t talk nonsense, we are friends.
…Yes, friends who slept in the same bed and hugged for a whole night. Rong Ziyan really deserved to be single. Not to mention a reserved and gentle young lady, even a beautiful little gay who loves to act spoiled can’t move him at all!
It was simply poisonous.
The system shut down again, not planning to pay him any attention. Rong Ziyan, on the other hand, sent Ji Shu the complete medical instructions from the school doctor from yesterday. After confirming that he had arrived home, he went back to the laboratory to do his experiments.
Over the next few days, Rong Ziyan was even busier than before graduation. Originally, the tutor’s idea was to have Rong Ziyan be recommended for graduate studies under his name.
But after discussing it with Boss Fat, they simply sent Rong Ziyan over in the name of school-directed training.
Some of the procedures required Rong Ziyan to handle himself, and at the same time, he couldn’t delay the work in the laboratory. These tedious matters took up a full week for Rong Ziyan.
When he finally caught his breath, the experiment finally had a breakthrough. All the components were separated clearly, and all that was left was to cultivate them separately.
However, this was no longer the main field of the agricultural university. They would prepare to transfer it to a more professional researcher’s institute. Rong Ziyan, after finishing this stage of the experiment, was also preparing to pack his things and follow Boss Fat back to his institute.
When other students left before, Rong Ziyan had seen them off. But now that Rong Ziyan was leaving, only the tutor and the head of the department were there to see him off.
“Teacher, please rest assured!” Rong Ziyan bowed solemnly to the two teachers.
“Take good care of yourself. Don’t be afraid, the agricultural university will always have your back!” Knowing that Rong Ziyan was going to a research institute where many great minds gathered, the head of the department patted Rong Ziyan’s shoulder to encourage him.
“Okay. Teacher, don’t worry, I will never bring shame to the agricultural university!” After saying that, Rong Ziyan took a step back, first put his luggage into the trunk of the car that had come to pick him up, and then put the geese, which had grown huge, into cages and lifted them onto the back seat of the car. Then, he sat in the passenger seat.
Soon, the car started, and Rong Ziyan looked back, the gates of the agricultural university were gradually being left behind.
System: Host, will you miss it?
Rong Ziyan: No, it’s always there, I can come back anytime.
The system didn’t quite understand what Rong Ziyan meant, and this time Rong Ziyan didn’t intend to explain.
The weight of the term “alma mater” could never be easily described with simple words. But it was precisely because it always weighed heavily in one’s heart that students wandering outside could have a sense of belonging similar to home.
Especially when holding their diplomas and standing in front of others, the alma mater was something to talk about, but even more, it was engraved in their bones as pride.
Boss Fat’s research institute was located in the distant suburbs of Beijing, across the entire city from the agricultural university.
Coupled with the traffic jam on the way, Rong Ziyan had departed in the morning and arrived at half past two in the afternoon.
The geese in the back seat had calmed down from their initial excitement about moving with their handsome father and had transitioned to the collapse of “Why aren’t we there yet? This goose is going to die.”
Finally able to breathe the fresh air outside the car, the geese were instantly revived and began to look forward to their future happy life.
“There must be many beautiful young ladies!”
“There will also be gentle aunties.”
“Yes, yes, the important thing is that there will be a handsome father!”
The barrage of comments was full of their expectations.
Rong Ziyan sighed.
System: What’s wrong?
Rong Ziyan shook his head: I’m a little reluctant to tell them the truth.
The system didn’t understand the subtext of Rong Ziyan’s words, but since waiting was too boring, the system suggested that Rong Ziyan do a ten-draw lottery.
System: Even if it’s all salted duck eggs, they can still be stored, why not try it.
Rong Ziyan: That’s reasonable, draw!
The roulette wheel spun rapidly. Maybe it was because they had changed location, but this time Rong Ziyan was shockingly lucky.
Ten draws in a row were all R-level items with beautiful blue glows. The key thing was that what came out this time was not goose eggs or suonas, but a rectangular bottle of liquid.
System: Crap! Did the feng shui change? Host, hurry up and see what you drew?
Rong Ziyan was just about to click to see the item details, but just then, the team that was coming to welcome Rong Ziyan finally arrived.
Rong Ziyan stopped what he was doing and sized up the people who had arrived.
As expected of the famous “National Youth Team,” the seven or eight people who came were all nearly thirty years old, but they all stood upright, wearing laboratory-specific white coats, each looking valiant and giving people a good impression.
“Wow! Are they handsome uncles?” The geese immediately became excited and stretched out their necks.
Closer and closer, closer and closer, the geese all held their breath, even more excited than Rong Ziyan, who was about to join the team.
Finally, they walked out of the gate and stood in front of Rong Ziyan.
The geese all widened their eyes to size up the young men in front of them, and they were also sizing up Rong Ziyan.
In that instant, both sides fell silent.
Rong Ziyan’s fellow senior students: Crap! Why is Junior Brother’s hair so thick!
The geese: They look good, it’s just that their hair, their hair volume is a bit sparse.
[Resentment Value 10000]
Looking at the rapidly increasing emotional value of his senior brothers, Rong Ziyan subconsciously placed the R-level item he had just drawn into the hands of several of his senior brothers.
Now, the whole place was silent.
The system finally reacted and read the name of the new item: Little Overlord Anti-Hair Loss Shampoo.
It was only one word different from the best-selling Overlord Anti-Hair Loss product on the market, “little”, which was very similar to the fake Kangshuifu instant noodles sold on trains.
