After rebirth, she discovered the space golden finger
Chapter 502 Reminiscing the Past
Late at night, Chu Zewen was practicing when there was a knock on the door. He opened the door and saw Pei Yun. A gentle smile appeared in his eyes unconsciously: "Senior Pei, what's the matter?"
There were many people in the living room just now, so she only mentioned Wan Xiaoqing's matter briefly, saying that her ex-husband was ordered by the Wang family to seize the custody of the child, but did not mention the conversation between the two. Now of course, she repeated the conversation between Wang Xin and Wan Xiaoqing.
Chu Zewen restrained his smile and stood silently in front of the French window, seemingly admiring the night view outside, but scenes from the past emerged in his mind. When he came to his senses, he saw the person in front of him looking at him with interest.
This close distance reminded Chu Zewen of the day in the operating room when she was also so close to him, so close that he could see her trembling eyelashes and his own shadow in her pupils, as well as the faint fragrance of lotus lingering around his nose...
He lowered his eyes, his gaze wandering to her lips, his eyes darkened slightly, and he couldn't help but move slightly closer.
Pei Yun frowned slightly and took a step back. He felt that the approach of the person in front of him was a little strange, but he couldn't help but gossiping: "...How are you going to deal with Wan Xiaoqing's matter?"
Chu Zewen had already woken up. Seeing that the person in front of him couldn't hide his expression of wanting to watch the show, he smiled slightly, with relief in his tone:
"...Some things and some people are missed once they are missed, but I am the one who implicated her in this matter. If she is willing to go to K City, that's fine. If she doesn't want to go, I will try my best to make arrangements."
Pei Yun nodded and stopped asking questions. After all, this was someone else's private matter. She changed the subject and asked, "Are you practicing?"
"That's right, please give me some advice, senior."
The two of them sat cross-legged on the ground facing each other. Pei Yun first used the Xisheng Jue to check Chu Zewen's inner elixir, and said after a while: "Judging from the world I live in, you are now in the middle stage of foundation building, but not far from the late stage. Try to break through to the late stage of foundation building in the near future..."
As she spoke, she took out a bottle of spiritual liquid and gave it to Chu Zewen, "This spiritual liquid will help you improve your cultivation."
Chu Zewen thanked him quickly, and Pei Yun took out a palm-sized stone from his storage ring: "This is a black stone for measuring spiritual roots. Although it is not as good as the spiritual root pillar of the sect, it can give you a rough idea. Put your hand on it and try it."
Chu Zewen did as he was told, and soon the black stone emitted a faint light.
"The grade of your spiritual roots is roughly at the lower earth level. Of course, this is because you ate the fruit of wisdom, so your spiritual roots have been improved."
Pei Yun said, "But later, as long as you have enough meteorites to trade with me, I also have treasures that can improve the grade of spiritual roots."
"Senior, the higher the spiritual root grade, the easier it is to cultivate, right?"
"That's right. Spiritual roots can represent a person's talent and almost indicate the upper limit of a person's cultivation. Of course, spiritual roots are not static. Natural resources and treasures can upgrade spiritual roots."
Pei Yun said, "If you can be promoted to the Heavenly Grade, then there is a possibility of ascending..."
"Ascension?!"
"Ascend to the upper realm. If my guess is correct, this world is just a small world. When your cultivation and enlightenment reach a level comparable to the laws of nature in this world, you can ascend to a higher level world..."
Pei Yun half-jokingly said, "Maybe we can meet in the upper realm in the future..."
Pei Yun just said it casually, but Chu Zewen was shocked. He looked at Pei Yun deeply and engraved these words in his heart.
……
On the other side, after Wan Xiaoqing coaxed the two children to sleep, she sat by the window in a daze, memories of the past flooding into her mind -
"I didn't expect that we would have a placement test right after entering high school and before class. Xiaoqing, you are indeed a top student. You actually ranked second in the grade, second only to Chu Zewen!"
Listening to her companions' excited words, Wan Xiaoqing stood in front of the bulletin board with scores and rankings in various subjects, staring blankly at the three characters "Chu Zewen" above her name, and whispered, "Chu Zewen."
At this moment, a loud voice came from not far away: "Zewen, come with me to play basketball! Zhou An and the others are already on the basketball court!"
When Wan Xiaoqing heard the voice, she looked and saw a boy of similar age holding the shoulders of the boy next to him with a cheerful look on his face. Both of them were wearing white school uniforms. She set her eyes on the boy called "Zewen", with neat short hair, handsome face, and picturesque eyebrows. When he looked over and met her gaze, Wan Xiaoqing couldn't help but feel her heart tighten.
This was the first time she met Chu Zewen!
……
Although she and Chu Zewen were in the same class, they hardly spoke to each other. Chu Zewen was introverted and not at all like his two good buddies.
As for her, she came from a poor family and her life was all about studying. She couldn't relate to other topics.
The first time she and Chu Zewen came into contact was because of a mathematics competition, and their teacher took them to the neighboring city to participate in the competition organized by the province.
Other students went for a stroll around the area after the competition, but she had no spare money for food, drink and entertainment, so she could only stay in the hotel to study.
Perhaps Chu Zewen saw her embarrassment, so in the next few days he not only treated everyone to a meal, but also took the initiative to help her solve difficult problems.
Only then did she realize that although Chu Zewen looked difficult to approach, he was actually a very gentle and friendly person.
……
The results of the final exam came out, and she went to the bulletin board without much hope. Whether it was the previous monthly exams or the midterm exams, she always ranked second, and Chu Zewen was always in first place.
But... "Xiaoqing, you actually got the first place in the grade!" Her classmates told her the news with surprise.
She hurried forward to take a look, and this time her name was above the three words "Chu Zewen". Chu Zewen actually only got second place.
Wan Xiaoqing was naturally very happy. The first place in each grade would receive a bonus. With the bonus, she would not go hungry, nor would she be threatened by her parents for not being able to go to school.
But when she passed the school playground and came to the corner of the garden, she heard Li Yi on the other end laughing happily at the person opposite: "Hey! You, the nerd, have failed this time! I told you to pretend, and you handed in the test paper half an hour early, but you ended up missing half a question, hahaha..."
Her mind moved slightly, and she heard the man say calmly, "Are you sure you want to laugh at me, who is ranked second, when you are ranked outside the top 100 in the whole grade? If you have time, you might as well think about how to explain it to your mother when you go back..."
She quietly left the corner, but an irresistible thought arose in her mind, that is, Chu Zewen deliberately took the second place, and he wanted to give the first place prize to her.
An indescribable complex emotion surged in her heart...
……
After the students were divided into arts and science in the second year of high school, she and Chu Zewen had more contact. They both chose science and sat at the desks in front and behind each other, so she could see him as soon as she turned around.
Before the college entrance examination, she asked Chu Zewen about his major and chose the same university as him. They entered the same university without any setbacks.
More than a year later, she mustered up the courage to confess her love to Chu Zewen. She thought she would always remember that day.
In the hot summer, the two stood under the shady trees. He lowered his head and gently kissed the corner of her mouth. Her heart was beating uncontrollably. She closed her eyes and trembled slightly. She stood on tiptoe to respond to him. It seemed like the whole summer had passed, and it seemed like only a moment had passed. She heard his smiling voice in her ear and he said softly, "Okay."
At this moment, her youth that had nowhere to go had a place to go...
