【British and American】My miserable life studying abroad

Wei Shengling slept soundly. When she woke up and turned her head, she saw a little light coming through the curtains. She was a little dazed and it took her a while to realize that it was daybreak.

She forgot to enter the space to practice yesterday.

Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah! ! ! ! !

This is crazy. According to the four times flow rate of the space, she has wasted two days!

Too lax, too lax!

The main reason was that there had been too many things going on recently, and she was so busy that she was dizzy and under a lot of pressure. In addition, she had been practicing day and night, so as soon as she relaxed yesterday, she had a good rest.

"It seems that we still need to combine work and rest." Wei Shengling lay on the bed and picked up the phone on the bedside table. Some messages from domestic friends and boring chats in the Avengers internal group chat. What did they talk about that night? 99+ in a flash, more than 400 messages waiting to be read.

I took a quick look and saw some stuff like who ate peanut butter, who ate donuts, and Tony, can you please stop staying up late? He's been up all night for three days, and they've made plans to go out for drinks.

Should she set this group chat to "Do Not Disturb"? She was thinking seriously.

There were also messages from Claire and Lianne in her phone, the latter expressing concern for her safety and saying that she would never reveal her identity.

The former invited her to his home, saying that he had been feeling bored recently due to his illness and missed Wei Shengling very much.

Go to Claire's house?

Wei Shengling was a little hesitant. She rarely visited her friends’ homes in the country, and abroad...

Forget it, let's go and see her. Claire seems to have been sick recently and has no one to accompany her. She sounds pitiful.

After all, they are friends. It is normal to care about your friends and visit your friends' homes. It's just that she is not used to it.

"Okay, when is convenient?" Wei Shengling replied. Claire seemed to be staring at her phone all the time and replied immediately.

"Anytime is fine. If you are free now, I will send someone to pick you up."

So eager?

She frowned, switched to the camera, and seeing her disheveled hair in the lens, she smacked her lips and continued to reply.

"It's not convenient now, maybe in two and a half hours. - S?WS"

"Okay. --C?L"

The letters at the end are the first letters of the name/surname. Because Wei Shengling is a double surname, she is used to using WS to represent her surname.

Two and a half hours later it was exactly half past nine, enough time.

Wei Sheng Ling rubbed the soft pillow reluctantly, got out of bed, washed, did morning exercises, took a shower, ate, practiced, and finally prepared gifts.

There should be more than one person at Claire's house, so it would be better to bring gifts to her home.

There was nothing suitable in the space, only basic food and medicine. She went out temporarily to buy a bottle of good red wine and a beautiful scarf from a niche brand, which were for Claire's parents.

She herself... well, Claire has a small appetite, so she should have some hawthorn pills, which are sour and sweet to whet the appetite, and buy a beautiful diamond hairpin.

At half past nine, the car stopped at the door of Wei Shengling's house on time. There was some confusion in her eyes. She had forgotten to agree on the location with Claire, so the car came directly. This was normal. The question was, when did she tell Claire her address?

Wei Shengling herself attaches great importance to privacy and never posts photos that would reveal her address or her appearance online. Even when she takes a screenshot of the weather while discussing the weather with others, she will carefully cut off the upper area.

It is one thing for big data to know, and it is another to actively expose it to others.

This habit has continued from her childhood until now when she went abroad. In this country, she has never taken the initiative to reveal her address to anyone, including the Avengers.

So, how did Claire know?

Could it be that her family investigated? Wei Shengling half-closed her eyes to hide the emotions in her eyes. She sat in the back seat behind the driver's seat, which was the safest place.

After fastening my seat belts, the car started off. The whole journey was quiet in the car and no one spoke.

After driving for a while, the car stopped outside a manor and was only driven in after being checked by the guard at the gate.

Is Claire's family so powerful? Wei Shengling looked at the scene along the way and felt that everything that happened was beyond his expectations.

After getting off the car, the maid led them to a room. Wei Shengling didn't say anything, and neither did the maid. She knocked on the door, and a weak voice came from the room, "Come in."

"Claire." Wei Shengling entered the room. "How are you?"

She sat on the bed and was stuck the moment she saw Claire.

How is it? Of course it is very bad.

The girl lying on the bed was a typical blonde with blue eyes. Her big golden curls were scattered on the pillow. At the moment, she looked dull and lifeless. Her face was pale and weak, and her sea-blue eyes were watery. Although I hadn't seen her for only a few days, she had lost a lot of weight.

“Claire…”

Wei Shengling nervously put the gift in his hand on the ground. He wanted to touch her with both hands but didn't dare.

"Suki..."

Claire reached out and held Wei Shengling's hand. That hand was too cold, it didn't seem like the body temperature of a living person.

Wei Sheng Ling held Claire's hand to warm her up. "Why are your hands so cold?"

"It's okay. Suki warmed my hands. I'm not cold at all now." She smiled, trying hard to hide her weakness.

"What did the doctor say?" Wei Shengling remembered that Claire had told her that it was an old illness. Now it seemed that this old illness might be very serious.

Even whether it is an old problem or not is a question mark.

"It seems to be a genetic disease, and the onset is very sudden." When this was mentioned, Claire sat up with difficulty and moved her eyes to the window. She was a little sad, but she quickly adjusted herself. "You brought a gift?"

"Yes, there are gifts for your parents, and for you." Wei Shengling brought the gifts up, and Claire forced a smile. "My parents died a long time ago."

Wei Sheng Ling: ...

Damn me.

"sorry, I do not know……"

"It's okay, I didn't tell you in advance." Claire comforted him. Wei Shengling blamed himself even more. It was normal that he didn't tell anyone. Who would tell everyone that their parents were dead?

Seeing Wei Shengling's expression, Claire smiled morbidly in a place where she couldn't see. It's great that Su Ji also cares about me...

Just like that...looking at me, caring about me, I'm your only friend.

I will also try to get better for Suki, as long as Spider-Man is caught...

Peter Parker sneezed again: …

Hmm? What happened? It's autumn and the weather is getting colder. Did you catch a cold?

Claire wasn't like this originally.

She had very few real friends, and most of them were friends with her because of their family. When Lin En and his wife passed away, their huge fortune was left to Claire.

How crazy can people be for money? Assassination, seduction, and approaching in the guise of friendship...

Wei Shengling became friends with her when he didn't know her identity. In Claire's opinion, this friend was gentle, sincere, considerate, and hardworking.

She always remembers small details about herself, even a word she said inadvertently, and then gives herself a surprise at some point.

She also tried many times to confirm that this person really didn't know her identity or Lin En's family.

So, in just a few months, they became good friends.

That's how it was originally.

Why did it change? It was a sudden genetic disease, rapidly failing organs, a weak body, and the watchful eyes of outsiders.

It's the fear of death.

This fear changed her, making her paranoid and morbid. She wanted to hold on tightly to the only trace of reliable warmth and never let go.

She also has to catch Spider-Man and she has to survive.

The threat of death can easily change a person beyond recognition.

"Claire." Wei Shengling raised his head at some point. Claire was a little flustered. Did Suki see her expression before? Would she distance herself from her...

"Claire," Wei Sheng Ling called again, raised his hand and touched Claire's head, the warm body temperature radiated from the top of her head. She stared at her friend with a gentle expression, a tear falling from the corner of her eye.

It’s great that she and Suki have become friends.

She will, will definitely survive.

So, grab Spider-Man!

Peter was being scolded again: Ah Qiu!

Got a cold?
