Spend Summer Chapter 42
bykeep her
Shen Wan followed and climbed ashore with her hands on her hands. At the first moment, she rushed to Ji Zhao’s side, her voice became extremely dry.
“Zhao Zhao…Zhao Zhao!”
Ji Zhao still closed his eyes and spit out a mouthful of turbid river water unconsciously.
“Ambulance! Yes, ambulance!” Shen Wan suddenly raised her head and looked at Lin Jiayue, her eyes full of paranoia.
“It’s already been beaten, but it may take a while.” Lin Jiayue kept choking, grabbing Ji Zhao’s arm, tears streaming down her face.
Hearing this, Shen Wan bit her lower lip and recalled the methods of saving people on TV.
After a pause, she stretched out her hands tremblingly, crossed them and pressed them on Ji Zhao’s chest, once, once, once…
“Cough! Cough!”
Finally, the men under him trembled, their chests rising and falling.
Shen Wan’s eyes turned red and she shouted hoarsely: “Zhao Zhao…”
“Wan…wan…” Ji Zhao wriggled his lips and frowned, trying to open his eyes, but couldn’t.
There were bursts of dull pain in his heart, which was beating violently and non-stop. A tear overflowed from the corner of Ji Zhao’s eyes physiologically, and flowed into the ground unconsciously.
Shen Wan nodded repeatedly, as if he wanted to catch her, “Well, I’m here. The doctor will be here soon. Just wait for a while, okay?”
“Wan… Wan, I’m sorry, I seem to have broken my promise, and Yueyue, help…” Ji Zhao opened a gap with all her strength. She wanted to seal Shen Wan in her heart, but her heart was so painful that her vision was filled with fog and she couldn’t see clearly.
After a pause, she did not choose to say the next words. Lin Jiayue should not take care of Shen Wan for herself, nor should she ask her.
So, she said: “Everyone…goodbye…”
“No, Zhaozhao, I have never felt like this.” Shen Wan shook her head eagerly in denial, her voice full of choking and pain.
Lin Jiayue nodded and choked with sobs, “Yes, I know.”
Her vision gradually became blurred, and Ji Zhao seemed to see a gorgeous sea of blooming flowers. She couldn’t help but murmur: “So tired…so beautiful…”
As if she had realized something, Shen Wan tightened her hands and her eyes became dull, red and heavy, stained with strong paranoia.
“Zhaozhao, I don’t allow you to die! Did you hear me? If you die, I will not live alone! I will always and forever make you uneasy! You are not allowed to die!”
This was the first time that Shen Wan showed such a paranoid side in front of Ji Zhao. She had always been afraid before, afraid of scaring her.
But now, she can’t care about so much, and only has one thought left – to keep her and use all means.
“Ha…, so my… little… deskmate is so… cruel?” Ji Zhao’s voice in her ear was smiling, as doting as ever, but her eyes slowly closed and could no longer be opened.
On August 10, 2018, Ji Zhao officially stopped his heartbeat.
This year, she was seventeen years old, the best age in her life.
From then on, Shen Wan was left alone in the world, and there was no one she cared about anymore.

A party that was supposed to be filled with laughter ended up being filled with sadness.
The leaves rustled down and scattered all over the shore path, just like Ji Zhao’s life.
“Zhao…Zhao…” The throat rolled several times, but it seemed to be stuck, and the words he spoke were full of blood.
The emergency bell ringing behind him was particularly harsh, and Shen Wan was pulled away suddenly and fell to the ground.
“She…she has a heart disease.” With her throat dry, Shen Wan gritted her teeth and spat out.
The doctor in front of him seemed to freeze for a moment, then quickly went to rescue.
But soon, they dispersed.
Someone walked up to Shen Wan. The white medical uniform was particularly dazzling. Shen Wan raised her head and stared at her lips, opening and closing them.
For some reason, Shen Wan suddenly understood the lip language.
“Sorry, we tried our best.”
The sound of stinging electricity filled her ears, and Shen Wan seemed to be unable to hear the sound anymore.
The midsummer sun was extremely hot, but Shen Wan felt extremely cold. Her soaked clothes stuck to her body, making her shiver from the cold.
In a hazy state, Shen Wan heard Lin Jiayue’s painful cries, sobbing, shaking violently, and coughing and wheezing continuously.
Shen Wan didn’t cry, and couldn’t cry, but her eyes were extremely empty, without any light.
She followed the doctor to the hospital. Ji Zhao was sent to the morgue to be laid to rest, while Shen Wan stayed outside until her legs and feet became numb.
When Ji’s mother and Ji’s father arrived, it was already evening. Their faces were pale, their lip lines were chapped, and their eye sockets were red and swollen.
They entered the morgue and hugged Ji Zhao, who was lying on the ice bed and covered with white cloth. His clothes were soaked with tears.
After crying for an unknown amount of time, Ji’s mother moved out of the morgue, holding up the sluggish Lin Jiayue with one hand, and patting Shen Wan, who had her head lowered, with the other.
“Yeah…sorry.”
Shen Wan finally reacted. She wriggled her lips and spit out something dryly.
Ji’s mother’s eyes became even redder. She shook her head repeatedly and said in a choked but gentle tone: “It has nothing to do with you, it’s all about life. Let’s go, Auntie will take you home.”
Shen Wan nodded slowly, raised her empty eyes, and hummed in a low voice.
We were so sad that we didn’t dare to drive, so we found a substitute driver.
Shen Wan sat in the back row, staring straight at her toes, not daring to blink.
To this day, she still doesn’t want to believe that Ji Zhao, who was always full of vitality and extremely gentle, died because of a reason that caught people off guard.
She didn’t eat, but asked Ji’s mother to put her at the door of the house, then turned and walked inside.

Ji Zhao’s death didn’t seem to cause much sensation. Only a few people knew about it, but Shen Wan knew that everything had changed.
She didn’t dare to attend Ji Zhao’s funeral. She stayed close to the bed and refused to leave. There was a video on the phone next to her – it was a video of the two singing that Lin Jiayue had taken on her birthday.
“You are a fleeting thought
Alienation with coldness
…”
Probably knowing Shen Wan’s mood, Lin Jiayue just took a photo of her and didn’t say anything else.
The funeral was over, but Shen Wan still didn’t dare to come out. She seemed to have become a coward, unwilling to face all this.
Except for the necessary meals and washing, she just stayed in the room, listening to the video, reading college textbooks, and studying questions.
Listen to what Lin Jiayue said – that little girl couldn’t think of jumping into the river because her family favored boys over girls and beat her wantonly. She now knows how precious life is and will never do that again.
Ji Zhao saved her and seemed to have saved Shen Wan as a child, but she forgot that the grown-up Shen Wan needed her company even more.
–
In a flash, the first day of school arrived.
Lin Jiayue seemed to have taken over Ji Zhao’s “job” and came to Shen Wan’s room and knocked on the door and shouted: “Sister Shen, it’s time to go to school!”
Shen Wan picked up the schoolbag at hand, opened the door, and hummed in a low voice: “Thank you.”
She didn’t speak for a long time, her voice was slightly hoarse, and there was an indescribable chill in her voice.
Lin Jiayue was helpless and uncomfortable. She wanted to step forward and pick up her schoolbag, but Shen Wan avoided her.
“It’s okay, I can do it myself.”
Lin Jiayue scratched her head, then nodded and followed her.
When entering the classroom, Li Yuanfang was already waiting on the podium. When he saw the two people, he quickly walked down.
“Jiayue, Shen Wan, come out for a moment.” She knocked on the desk.
Shen Wan raised his eyes to look at her, then nodded slowly.
The office was empty, except for the humming sound of the air conditioner, which brought coolness to the body and dissipated the heat.
“Shen Wan, Jia Yue, about Ji Zhao…” As he spoke, Li Yuanfang paused, his eyes full of worry and hurt.
Touching Ji Zhao, Shen Wan moved a little and raised his eyes to look at her, his expression calm.
Lin Jiayue’s eyes turned red uncontrollably, but she still managed to answer: “Old Ban, just tell me, we are fine.”
Li Yuanfang nodded, and then continued: “As for Ji Zhao, I will tell her in the classroom later that she will transfer to another school and leave. This is also her wish. Can you… be okay?”
“Yes, we can.” Lin Jiayue wiped the tears from her eyes and nodded in agreement.
“One more thing -” Li Yuanfang looked at Lin Jiayue, “Classmate Sang Zhiyu transferred to her hometown to study due to family reasons.”
Lin Jiayue’s fingers tightened, and she clutched the corner of her clothes, her eyes stiff.
After a long pause, she nodded and forced a smile, “Well, Xiao Yu’er told me that it’s okay, we can go and play with her.”
She seemed to be smiling, but Shen Wan keenly felt the bitterness in Lin Jiayue’s heart. She moved her fingertips, then took out a cowboy candy from her pocket and gave it to her.
The smile on Lin Jiayue’s lips suddenly deepened, and she whispered: “Thank you, Sister Shen.”
After calming down in the office, the two followed Li Yuanfang back to the classroom.
During one summer vacation, two people were missing from the classroom. Shen Wan and Lin Jiayue also had no one they wanted to see.
Before, because of Sang Zhiyu’s joining, the Three Musketeers became the Four Heroes, but now, the Four Heroes have become two people.
Li Yuanfang clapped her hands on the podium and said, “Students, please be quiet and let me tell you some bad news. Due to family reasons, classmates Ji Zhao and Sang Zhiyu have transferred to another school.”
As soon as he finished speaking, the students below immediately exploded, making the classroom noisy and noisy.
“What? Sister Zhao transferred to another school?!”
“And Sang Zhiyu, why didn’t you tell us? Do you think we are friends?”
“That is to say, believe it or not, we are angry!”
Faye Wong came directly to Lin Jiayue and Shen Wan and asked, “Is this true? They have all transferred schools and left?”
Afraid that Lin Jiayue’s secret would be exposed, Shen Wan spoke first: “Well, I transferred to another school.”
Her eyes were clear and slightly cold.
Faye Wong said “Oh” with a hint of disbelief in her tone.

Life and studies in the senior year of high school were too busy, and it seemed that they couldn’t bear the trouble without the two of them. Li Yuanfang did not move Ji Zhao’s desks away, so Shen Wan became a single person.
It seemed like a good thing, having a place to put books, but Shen Wan was not happy at all. She did not occupy Ji Zhao’s desk, but quietly wiped her desk clean.
Shen Wan was still unwilling to admit the fact of Ji Zhao’s death. She still brought her a cup of coconut milk oatmeal porridge every morning, but this cup of porridge always ended up in her own stomach.
The black fur ball Ji Zhao gave her on her birthday was put on her schoolbag and flew with the wind.
