Difficult To Raise Chapter 52

Chapter 52 Holding Hands Jiang Jin’s injury was indeed what he said…

As expected, Jiang Jin’s injury healed quickly as he said, and he would be discharged from the hospital within a few days.He completed the discharge procedures and stood at the door of the hospital waiting for He Siyu to pick him up.

If you have nothing to do, send a message to Jiang Ran.

RJ: [Brother, I’m discharged from the hospital. When will you finish class?]

Jiang Ran had a professional class this morning and rushed to school early in the morning.

Before leaving, I went to the doctor and asked for a long time, and then I felt relieved after making sure that he could be discharged from the hospital. When I got to the door, I couldn’t help but look back and told him: “I can’t pick you up today. You can go back to school in a while and don’t run around again. Do you understand?”

Jiang Jin responded lazily and said with a smile, “I’m not a child anymore, so don’t worry.”

Jiang Ran glanced at him and said, “Children have less trouble than you.”

Jiang Jin shrugged, and when he looked over again, his figure had disappeared.

Jiang Ran is very serious in class and usually doesn’t play with his mobile phone.Jiang Jin waited for a long time but didn’t get a reply, so he knew that he hadn’t finished class yet.

He sighed, cut out the chat page, and played a small game out of boredom. After playing and feeling bored, he switched back to WeChat to take a look.Except for the one he sent, no new messages came in.

Jiang Jin stared at Jiang Ran’s profile picture and felt that he was hopeless. He missed his brother a little even though he hadn’t seen him for a while.

When He Siyu drove to the entrance of the hospital, he immediately saw Jiang Jin standing by the steps.

Maybe it’s been raining these past few days and the temperature is a bit low.Jiang Jin wore a thin black sweater jacket, with the collar hanging loosely on his shoulders, making his already thin figure look even thinner.

His face was paler than when he was hospitalized, and he couldn’t even hide the faint green shadow under his eyes.

He Siyu parked the car next to him and honked the horn.Hearing the sound, Jiang Jin raised his head, met He Siyu’s eyes, opened the car door casually, bent down and sat in.

“Go back to school first?” He Siyu glanced at him, said calmly, and turned up the air conditioner twice.

Jiang Jin didn’t answer, his eyes were glued to the screen of his phone without moving away. The screen was still on the chat interface with Jiang Ran.

He stared at the record with no reply for a long time, feeling a little uncomfortable.After a while, he curled his lips, turned off the phone and put it back in his pocket.

“Well, I’ll get back to you first…” As he finished speaking, an idea suddenly flashed in his mind, and he suddenly turned around, “Let’s go to S University, just in time to give my brother a surprise.”

He Siyu’s hand on the steering wheel paused and glanced sideways at him, “Are you sure that’s a surprise?”

Jiang Jin was in a much better mood now and did not argue with him, “Why not? My brother cares about me so much. It’s not like you haven’t seen him these past few days.”

He Siyu didn’t even look at him, with a clear look of disgust on his face.

“Little Fatty,” Jiang Jin stretched out a finger and shook it, “Don’t show that jealous look.”

He Siyu was too lazy to pay attention to him, stepped on the accelerator without saying a word, and drove away from the hospital.

Arriving at the gate of S University, He Siyu stopped the car and drove Jiang Jin out of the car, “Get out of here, I have something else to do.”

Jiang Jin gave him a middle finger.

When he got out of the car and turned back, He Siyu had already stepped on the accelerator and ran away like a ghost chasing behind him.He really had no interest in watching Jiang Jin act stupid in front of his brother.

Jiang Jin was choked by the exhaust fumes and coughed. He covered his mouth and nose and frowned. He couldn’t help but cursed in a low voice.He stayed at the school gate for a while, then turned and walked towards the school.

The teaching building of the Department of Mathematics is behind the complex building, next to the library. The weather is rare today. The originally wet ground has dried up, and the sun has quietly emerged from the clouds.

Fragments of sunlight shine through the gaps in the leaves, falling on the ground to form mottled light and shadow, neither drying nor scorching.

Jiang Jin chose a bench next to a tree and sat down, took out his mobile phone and played a mini game. The game man jumped on the screen dutifully, crossing obstacles one after another.

This level is a bit difficult, I tried it three times and failed.Jiang Jin clicked his tongue and raised his eyes from the screen. Out of the corner of his eye, he suddenly caught a glimpse of a woman sitting on the bench opposite.

There was a distance of about ten meters between the two of them, so they couldn’t see their appearance clearly. She could only see that she was wearing an off-white windbreaker, her hair was tied back, and she was holding a light blue cake box in her hand. It seemed that she was also waiting for someone.

From time to time, she would raise her wrist to look at her watch, her fingertips rubbing the edge of the box, her brows slightly furrowed, obviously she was impatiently waiting.

Jiang Jin narrowed his eyes and stared at that figure for a long time. He always felt that it looked familiar, as if he had seen it somewhere before, but after thinking about it for a long time, he really couldn’t remember it.

Forget it, he’s just a stranger after all.

He looked away and was about to send another message to Jiang Ran when he heard a bell ringing and class was over.

Not long after the ringing stopped, students were already coming out one after another.

There were more men than women in the Mathematics Department of S University, and almost all of them were boys. Jiang Jin stared at it without blinking for a long time, and finally saw a slender and tall figure coming out.

Jiang Jin put his cell phone in his pocket and was about to get up from the bench when a figure walked towards Jiang Ran one step ahead of him.

Jiang Jin was startled, and when he looked carefully, he saw that it was the woman carrying the box from before.

The woman stopped in front of Jiang Ran and said something. She looked very excited.Jiang Ran took two steps to the side, as if he wanted to bypass her directly, as if he didn’t want to pay attention to her.

They were far away, so it was hard to see clearly what the two said or the expressions on their faces. Jiang Jin could only see the woman holding Jiang Ran’s arm again, and then pushing the cake box in her hand into his arms.

Perhaps Jiang Ran’s refusal was too obvious, and the two of them were arguing in public. The students passing by all looked at them as if they were watching the show.

It didn’t feel good to be looked at by others like this. Jiang Ran couldn’t help but feel embarrassed. He hesitated for a while and finally accepted the box.

When the woman saw him putting away the things, a big smile suddenly broke out on her face, and she didn’t know what she said.

Jiang Ran nodded impatiently, and then she turned around and walked away.

The moment he turned around, Jiang Jin finally saw her face clearly. His eyes darkened, and his hand on the bench suddenly used a little more force.

After a moment, he stared at the woman’s disappearing back and slowly revealed a sarcastic smile.

*

Jiang Ran’s fingers tightened slightly on the light blue box, and his chest was filled with unspeakable annoyance.

He thought he had made his words very clear at the door of the orphanage last time and had drawn a clear line every word. He never expected that Chen Rong hadn’t given up yet, and he didn’t know how she found out that he was studying at S University and actually found his own school.

Jiang Ran didn’t actually have much emotion towards Chen Rong. Of course he had some hatred, but after all these years, those feelings of hatred had become very weak, and he almost never thought of this person.

When I saw her again, what emerged in my heart was more of a desire to completely separate.

He didn’t want to play the role of a loving mother and a filial son, he just hoped that she would disappear in a sensible way and stop disturbing his finally calm life.

However, Jiang Ran lowered his head and glanced at the box in his hand, feeling as if there was a stone in his heart.

He sighed silently and walked towards the dormitory with lowered eyelids, his footsteps heavy and his heart a mess.

*

Not far away, a figure suddenly swayed out from under the tree and stopped in front of him.Thinking it was Chen Rong again, he raised his eyes impatiently. Before he could show the alienation on his face, he met a pair of smiling eyes.

“Hi brother, surprise.”

Jiang Jin stretched out his hand and shook it towards him.

Jiang Ran was stunned for a moment and paused, “Why are you here?”

Jiang Jin took two steps forward and said in a matter-of-fact tone, “You didn’t come to pick me up or reply to my message. I want to see you.”

“Didn’t I tell you to go back to school?” Jiang Ran looked at him helplessly, his eyes swept over his slightly pale cheeks, and his frown never relaxed, “You have just been discharged from the hospital, why are you running around? Why don’t you take a mirror and look at yourself? How ugly your face is now.”

He knew that this little lunatic was not that worried.

“I’m really fine.” Jiang Jin touched his face and sighed, “It’s all because of the meals I’ve eaten these past few days, which are watery and watery. It’s no wonder that my complexion is good. I need to eat a few more meats to make up for it.”

Jiang Ran glanced at him and walked forward without saying a word.

Jiang Jin smiled and said, “Where are you going, brother?”

“Didn’t you say you want to eat meat?” Jiang Ran stopped and turned back to glare at him, “Why don’t you follow me quickly?”

“Here we come.” The smile on Jiang Jin’s face became even bigger. She took three steps at a time and then two steps to follow him. She stretched out her hand and hooked his fingertips.

A little warmth spread along the fingertips, and the calluses on Jiang Jin’s fingers rubbed against his palms, and the touch was obvious.

Jiang Ran was startled and didn’t hide away like before.The two held hands quietly through their wide sleeves in the busy campus.

We walked in silence for a while.

Jiang Jin turned his head to look at him and suddenly said: “Brother, are you a little…”

She likes me a little bit.

Before he could ask this question, Jiang Ran suddenly let go of his hand, as if he had been burned by something, and looked at him with panic in his eyes.

“Okay, okay, I won’t ask you anymore.” Jiang Jin followed his retracted hand and touched a thin wrist bone.The boy’s wrist is smooth and white, warm to the touch, and the protruding joints are so obvious that you can almost wrap it around with one hand.

He frowned and said, “Brother, are you a little too thin?”

Jiang Ran looked at him. His panic calmed down and he lowered his voice and said, “I’ve always been like this. I can’t get fat no matter what.”

“Really?” Jiang Jin didn’t believe it. “Is there anyone in this world who can’t get fat? If you are so thin, you must not have eaten well.”

While talking, the two of them had already walked to the cafeteria.There are too many people here, and you are likely to run into someone you know.Jiang Ran didn’t hesitate and took his hand out of his palm.

This time Jiang Jin didn’t catch up and put his hands in his pockets. He followed Jiang Ran and said enthusiastically, “Let me see what you have in your canteen…”

“Well, steamed fish, this one is good. The braised pork looks good too, and there’s even braised pork with pickled vegetables. I haven’t had it for a long time, so I want one…”

After looking around, I finally selected several dishes, all of which were meat.The cafeteria of S University is very user-friendly. You can pay with school card and WeChat. Jiang Jin paid the money and walked to the empty seat in the corner with a full plate.

Jiang Ran sighed behind him, “How can we eat so many dishes?”

“You can eat it,” Jiang Jin pointed at him and then at himself, “Both of us have to make up for it.”

Jiang Ran couldn’t resist him and didn’t want to waste food, so he could only stuff it into his mouth hard.

To be honest, the food in the cafeteria tastes pretty good, especially after eating the patient set meals for a few days, these dishes become even more delicious.

But no matter how delicious it was, I couldn’t stand it and was fed it in a cram-like manner. In the end, I was so full that I could hardly walk.

He touched his swollen belly and wanted to sigh again. This little lunatic could always torment him in an unexpected way, even without stopping to eat.

Finally, Jiang Jin asked for his school card and said he wanted to buy something to drink.Jiang Ran didn’t think much and gave him the card.

A few minutes later, he came back with two glasses of juice, handed both the card and the juice into his hands, and said, “Brother, you must eat well in the future. You can’t lose weight any more. Do you understand?”

Jiang Ran laughed, “Children, don’t worry so much, you will become stupid.”

“Ah, then become stupid,” Jiang Jin also laughed, “Brother must watch me closely and don’t let me get lost.”

After coming out of the canteen, the two of them went for a walk on the playground to eat some food.At this time, there were not many people on the playground. There were only a few people walking slowly on the plastic track, shoulder to shoulder, holding hands. Looking around, they were basically lovers.

After walking a few times, they felt a little tired. They lay on the grass in the middle and chatted while resting.Jiang Jin raised his arms to rest his head on the back of his head and glanced at the blue box next to Jiang Ran vaguely.

“What is this?” Jiang Jin asked, “Did my brother buy the dessert?”

Jiang Ran said “hmm” and said vaguely: “Yeah.”

He looked at the light blue box and felt troubled. Throw it away. It felt like a waste. Keep it. When he thought it was from Chen Rong, he felt a blockage in his heart and couldn’t eat it at all.

“Oh,” Jiang Jin nodded, with the corners of his lips slightly curved, “I quite like sweets. Brother, I will bear the pain and give it to me and give this cake to me, okay?”

He stared at the cake box. Through the transparent plastic sheet, he could see an exquisite piece of peach mousse lying inside. The pink and white cream was vividly made, and even the bright red on the tip of the peach was just right.

“The peach flavor is my favorite.” Jiang Jin said with a smile.

Jiang Ran breathed a subtle sigh of relief, took the box over and put it in his hand, “You can take it back and eat it.”

The two chatted for a while, and Jiang Ran didn’t remember what they talked about. He had the habit of taking a nap. Now that he had eaten and drank enough, he was already a little sleepy, and he couldn’t help but squint his eyes slightly.

Jiang Jin glanced at him and turned sideways to help him block the fragments of sunlight.He stretched out a finger to trace his face in the air, and slowly hummed an unknown tune in his mouth.

The boy’s voice was clear and gentle, accompanied by the breeze blowing from time to time on the playground and the fresh smell of grass, as if it could enter his dreamland all the way.

“We walk from the past to the future, with a sea of flowers at our feet and stars above our heads.”

“We held hands and we smiled at each other.”

“When the cherries turn red, I look at you, and you finally have my look in your eyes…”

Jiang Ran woke up from his sleep. There was no one next to him. He was wearing a piece of clothing that looked familiar. It was the coat that Jiang Jin had just worn.

I took out my phone and looked at the time. It was already past two o’clock. I fell into a deep sleep, and actually slept for nearly two hours.

There is an unread message on WeChat, which Jiang Jin sent half an hour ago.

RJ: [Brother, I have to leave first. I’ll see you again after I’m done.Remember to eat well, sleep well, and…remember to miss me every day.]

[Cat acts like a baby.jpg]

Jiang Ran hugged his clothes and smelled the smell on his body. It was a faint fragrance that he couldn’t tell what it was.

After a while, his eyes couldn’t help but fall on the cute cat. He recognized it as the one raised by Jiang Jin and couldn’t help but curl his lips.

After watching for a while, he typed three words on the keyboard.

R: [Got it.]
