After rebirth, I gave up Bai Yueguang

Chapter 89 Heart-to-heart talk

When the alarm went off, Su Jing didn't stay in bed for a few minutes like she usually did. Instead, she jumped out of bed as if someone had stepped on her tail. She dressed and washed up at half the speed of her usual pace, then headed to the kitchen with an English test paper in hand. She planned to memorize a few difficult questions while making breakfast. But as soon as she opened the door, she was greeted by a sweet aroma wafting from the kitchen.

Huh? She thought it was Wu Wanqiu in the kitchen, but when she walked over, she saw Jiang Yi, dressed in sportswear, carrying a plate of omelets. He said to her, "You're ready to eat."

The sun hasn't risen yet today, has it? Su Jing looked out the window. What's wrong with this guy today?

"This cake is sweet. There's more inside. I'll get it." Jiang Yi walked back to the kitchen. "Hurry up and eat it."

Su Jing looked at him suspiciously as he slowly sat down. Jiang Yi then came out with a small pot: "Quick, get a cushion. It's hot."

Putting down the pot, he went to the kitchen and brought out a plate of cold turnips and two bowls before sitting down.

Facing Su Jing's wide eyes, Jiang Yi smiled very flatteringly, raised his chin and pointed at the plate of kohlrabi: "This is spicy. I know you need some chili to feel better when eating sweet food."

Su Jing took a bite of the biscuit and stared at Jiang Yi while chewing. "Who possessed you?"

"Go away, I just wanted to give you more time to sleep, you don't know how to appreciate it!" Jiang Yi gave her a blank look and pushed the porridge in front of her.

Su Jing didn't understand why he suddenly did this, but Wu Wanqiu had already come downstairs at this time, so she didn't ask any more questions. She just said to Wu Wanqiu, "The sun came out early today. Your son made breakfast."

"Oh, really? Am I sleepwalking?" Wu Wanqiu joked with a smile, "I never thought that I would be able to eat breakfast made by my son in my lifetime. Oh my, it's a miracle!"

"It's not a miracle, but you can eat it every day from now on." Jiang Yi stood up coquettishly, put his arm around Wu Wanqiu's shoulders and asked her to sit down. He then went to the kitchen to get the bowl and chopsticks, and served her porridge in front of her.

"Oh, I can eat it every day in the future, I am really dreaming." Wu Wanqiu continued to tease his son, looked at him meaningfully, and then looked at Su Jing, who was lowering her head to scoop a spoonful of porridge.

Jiang Yi understood what Wu Wanqiu meant, and a hint of embarrassment appeared on his face. "Of course it's true, but..." He glanced at his mother, "This treatment will only last until the college entrance examination."

Seeing that he didn't deny her guess, Wu Wanqiu smiled and pointed at him without saying anything else. She quickly finished her meal and went out to work.

At night, Wu Wanqiu didn't sleep all night. When she heard Jiang Yi returned to the room, she came over and knocked on the door.

When he opened the door and saw that it was his mother, Jiang Yi asked in confusion: "What are you doing so late at night?"

"Come in." Wu Wanqiu pushed her son into the door and closed it casually.

Before Jiang Yi could speak, Wu Wanqiu asked directly, "You didn't do anything to him, did you?"

"Huh?" Jiang Yi was confused by the question, "What did I do to her?"

"You are suddenly so nice to her. Did you do something to her and are you asking for forgiveness?" Wu Wanqiu looked nervous.

Jiang Yi was silent for a moment, then understood what his mother meant. His face flushed, "Mom, what are you thinking?"

"Why did you suddenly become so diligent if you didn't do anything wrong?" Wu Wanqiu asked.

This son loves cleanliness and tidies up the house, but he never gets up early to make breakfast. And when he does, it's only his own room, and now Su Jing's. If he says he doesn't have any thoughts, I'd definitely not believe it. He's so diligent now, could it be... Wu Wanqiu is really worried. The college entrance exam is coming up soon. What if these two kids really mess up? What will happen?

"Hey, why don't you believe your son? Am I that bad?" Jiang Yi was a little depressed.

"I did before, but you've changed a lot in the past year. But what if you relapse into your old ways?" Wu Wanqiu stared at him seriously. "Tell me, do you have feelings for her?"

"I..." Jiang Yi was a little embarrassed by his mother's question. He had originally said that he was just helping a classmate, and now he didn't expect it to turn out like this, that he would care so much about Su Jing. He thought for a while before saying, "Mom, what do you think of her?"

Looking at her son's expression, Wu Wanqiu knew that her suspicions had been correct. After a moment's thought, she said, "Su Jing is quite good. I've noticed you two are interested in each other for a long time. But I didn't expect you to start now... Sigh, I thought you would start after the college entrance examination."

She was in a dilemma. Her son had finally started studying, and with the Gaokao approaching, if he were to be distracted by a relationship, it would affect both of their futures. But she and her grandmother had already spoiled her son; he would do whatever he wanted without considering anything else. Just as she was trying to figure out how to help her son focus on his studies, Jiang Yi spoke up.

"Mom, we're not in a relationship."

"No?" Wu Wanqiu looked at her son's expression and didn't see any trace of lying, so she felt a little relieved.

"Not now, but in the future," Jiang Yi said to Wu Wanqiu very seriously, "I will let her be my girlfriend after she finishes her exams, and then I will marry her after she finishes her studies." His tone was very firm.

"Tsk, you're thinking about getting married now?" Wu Wanqiu looked at her son with contempt and turned away.

She couldn't believe it at all. This son had been pursued by many girls since he was a child. She didn't believe that he could decide on his marriage partner so early, let alone that he would not be tempted by other girls. And there was also his father's bad example in front of him.

However, she felt that her son might only think this way now. Once Su Jing really went to college and moved away, it might not change. So she didn't argue with Jiang Yi about anything else, but just asked him seriously: "Is there really nothing going on between you two?"

"Really not!" Jiang Yi said very seriously.

"Whether you want to date or not," Wu Wanqiu said, "it has to be after the college entrance examination. She's a good kid, and you can't hinder her future."

"Don't worry, Mom," Jiang Yi put his arm around Wu Wanqiu's shoulders, "I'm serious this time, very serious."

Wu Wanqiu turned to look at her son: "You'd better be serious."

"I'm really serious. I don't know why, but I'm certain that I should treat her well in this life. I must treat her well because, besides you, she's the only one in the world who loves me the most."

Wu Wanqiu sighed, "Okay, I hope you are serious. If you really love her so much, I have no objection. The only requirement is that everything has to wait until after she takes the college entrance examination. You are not allowed to do anything rash now!" Wu Wanqiu gave Jiang Yi a warning look.

"Don't worry, I will never do anything rash! She is different from other girls. She is really very, very good and worthy of all my energy in caring for and cherishing her throughout my life." Jiang Yi's tone was very firm.

Wu Wanqiu felt relieved by her son's rare resolute expression. She knew him too well; he had trouble determining his goals or objectives. But once he showed such a resolute look, ten oxen wouldn't be able to shake his resolve.

She caressed her son's head lovingly and said gently, "It's been so long, I can see that you two like each other, but Su Jing has her own goals. You can't just stay like this, otherwise if she meets a better boy in college, you won't have a chance. You have to find a way to be worthy of her. No matter how good-looking you are, there may be other boys who are better looking than you. China is so big, with so many people, there are too many boys who are better looking and better than you. Don't even think about how much wealth your father will leave you in the future. Don't forget, the woman he's with is about to give birth."

Jiang Yi remained silent. He knew that what Wu Wanqiu said was true. He could clearly sense how much Su Jing yearned to be strong and outstanding. She had repeatedly, intentionally or unintentionally, urged him to work harder. In fact, he knew every time Su Jing hinted at him, but on the surface he still pretended that nothing mattered. In secret, he was already thinking about how to make himself better.

For example, he now gets up in the morning to do push-ups, lift dumbbells, and do squats; although he lies down in class, he is listening to the class; when doing homework at night, he copies her homework, but he thinks about it carefully and compares the two answers before copying... He just doesn't want Su Jing to find out. He wants to give her a surprise on the day of the college entrance examination results, to let her know that it is not just his face that fascinates her, but he is also excellent enough to conquer her in other aspects.

Although Jiang Yi now understood his feelings for Su Jing, he still couldn't understand how he could be so sure he'd spend his life with her, especially before he'd even tried different girls. He remembered boasting to Maomao and the others not long ago that he'd date many women and that he'd only marry after killing 100 women. Why had he suddenly changed his mind? Could it be, as Su Jing had said, that they were destined to be together in a previous life?

Ever since that strange dream, Jiang Yi has been obsessed with the idea of ​​who he was waiting for in that dream. Furthermore, there was an equally unforgettable dream from a year ago. Who was the person who abandoned him in that dream?

Jiang Yi thought about it for a long time, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt that there must be some connection between these two seemingly completely opposite dreams.

Either the two people who appear in the dream have a special relationship with each other; or both of them have an inseparable and complicated entanglement with oneself.

Ultimately, this intense curiosity led Jiang Yi to desperately recall those two lingering, nightmarish dreams almost every night before bed, eager to encounter related scenes or plots again in his dreams. He was truly eager to uncover the true reason behind the obsession that had quietly grown in his heart, the insistence that he must treat Su Jing even better, no matter what.

Mother and son had a rare, serious heart-to-heart talk. It was past two in the morning when Wu Wanqiu left her son's room. She told him to sleep in a little longer, saying she would get up early to make breakfast for them. However, the next morning, Wu Wanqiu appeared at the kitchen door at 6:30, and the fragrant aroma of porridge was already wafting from the kitchen.

Although Wu Wanqiu felt sorry for her son, she was also pleased that he was able to determine his feelings and work hard for them.
