Rise

Hearing Su Xue's question, No. 1 did not rush to answer but turned to look at his fiancée.

Number Five shook his head lightly:

"I haven't said yet."

Such a situation made Su Xue feel even more uneasy, because it was almost certain that there was indeed a secret that she didn't know about, and seeing the reactions of No. 1 and No. 5, it was obvious that this matter...

Some serious.

Possibly even very serious.

After a moment of contemplation, No. 1 also shook his head, and said to his fiancée, "Look, if it feels appropriate... It doesn't matter if one more person knows."

Then he called Chu Fangnan who was on the side, and the two went to the corner of the corridor next to them to discuss something in a low voice, leaving room for two women with almost the same looks and temperament who were impeccably excellent.

Su Xue's eyes fell on No. 5 again:

"Jojo?"

Although she was very restrained, Su Xue still couldn't hide the anxiety and urgency in her heart. She really needed to know the truth, and if the truth...was closely related to someone and the girl on the other side of the ocean.

Number Five sighed softly:

"This matter... it's a long story."

Then she also looked directly at Su Xue: "Do you know why Baozi went to England? Why did he go to Manchester?"

Su Xue was slightly startled when she heard this, and subconsciously opened her mouth to answer without thinking: "Didn't you say that you transferred to another school to study, so you left without even taking the college entrance examination..."

But before she finished speaking, she stopped herself.

because.

If that was really the case, the question from number five would be meaningless at all.

so……

"Aren't you going to study?" Su Xue made another guess in a daze, a guess that had never considered subverting the original concept, perhaps because of the inertia of thinking or subconscious belief in that girl.

But if you don't go to study,

What else can I do?

I don't know if I guessed the confusion in Su Xue's heart, No. 5 didn't choose to answer the former's question directly, but changed the topic lightly:

"Baozi's previous grades have always been very good."

Su Xue nodded subconsciously, while No. 5's voice continued to ring in her ears:

"If you want to study in Europe, there is no need to worry about avoiding the college entrance examination, right?"

"Even if I go..."

"With the UK as a destination, there should be a lot of better choices. Manchester is not a city known for its educational atmosphere."

For a moment Su Xue was a little confused by the sudden change of topic, but she didn't know how to answer the conversation. Fortunately, the next moment, No. 5 continued in a calm and leisurely tone:

"However, in terms of certain medical technologies, Manchester is the top in the whole of the UK and even in Europe."

"There... there are some top-notch professional medical research centers."

"There are also top-notch hospitals that are purpose-built."

If Su Xue was confused by the previous evaluation of education in the UK and even in Manchester, then the sudden turning point in the following few sentences made her suddenly wake up and realize something.

It was like a ray of light piercing through my mind.

Or rather...

It was a chill, which suddenly rose from behind at the moment a certain thought flashed in her mind.

So at the next moment, Su Xue suddenly raised her head and stared at No. 5 in front of her with an unbelievable expression, as if she was speaking calmly.

The latter met the former's gaze indifferently, but there was a hint of mourning in the depths of his pupils, and he spoke softly:

"Bun, she..."

"I'm sick."

...

Many times you will find how easily a person can be influenced by outside news, which makes his mood change drastically in a very short period of time.

Even just a moment ago, you were still relieved that the expedited visa process was completed, and you were delighted to meet two of the most legendary couples in the generation of gaming circles in the corridor by chance.

But the next moment...

When a certain news is personally told by only a very small number of insiders.

When the sad news of the truth, which has never been seen before or even flashed in your mind, hits the unsuspecting you so abruptly and directly.

this moment.

It's as if the sky suddenly collapsed in front of you, and the whole world suddenly went dark for a moment.

All the joy, all the emotions of relief, were completely shattered in this instant, cruelly and coldly, and disappeared without a trace.

After hearing all the truth from No. 5 in front of her in a calm but sad tone, Su Xue staggered back two steps uncontrollably, only feeling a little dizzy uncontrollably in her head, subconsciously reached out her hand to cover her heart, tried her best It's unbelievably overwhelming trying to digest this information and still be buzzing with:

"Baozi, she...is sick?"

"How, how is it possible?"

He murmured almost subconsciously*.

But No. 5 nodded lightly, confirming this again in a cruel and realistic voice: "It's true."

Su Xue couldn't help closing her eyes tightly, her eyelashes trembling violently.

Trying hard to control my emotions, but my mood couldn't stop trembling in the air with the voice of speaking: "When did it happen?"

No. 5 was silent for a moment, then said, "A year ago."

"a year ago!?"

Su Xue suddenly opened her eyes again, her face full of disbelief: "But a year ago, Baozi just transferred to Shanghai—"

yes.

That was the reunion of a certain person and that girl after many years. Everything seemed to be the newest and full of vitality and hope. How could it be a year ago...

But the next moment, No. 5 shook his head again, and asked back:

"I studied well in the high school in Hangcheng. What do you think... an ordinary girl, what reason can she use to make her family accept her sudden transfer?"

"And... just to transfer to the same high school where Xiaofeng is."

Su Xue had just uttered half of her words and was choked by No. 5's rhetorical question. She opened her mouth subconsciously, and then a certain guess suddenly flashed in her mind, and the shocking light in her eyes flickered away:

"You mean..."

No. 5 smiled silently, but there was a bit of pity and helplessness for a girl from the other side of the ocean in the smile:

"Normal reasons are of course impossible to be accepted by the family."

"so……"

"It can only be some abnormal reasons that family members can't refuse."

Su Xue's lips trembled a little, just like her heart couldn't stop trembling at this moment, because she also thought of some "minor illness" that seemed to be an accidental sudden onset of the girl more than half a year ago, but now When it comes to reality, everything seems to have a more reasonable and cruel explanation, which makes her tremble when she speaks again:

"Baozi...what's wrong with her?"

Number Five pursed his lips, paused again for a long while, and then slowly shook his head:

"The specific situation... I don't know much yet."

"I went to England this time, and I originally wanted to see her, but..."

The words are not finished.

But Su Xue has been able to understand the meaning of the second half of the words without any effort, because no one has ever imagined that such a sudden and unexpected situation will happen, and it will also make everyone who knows the truth... all for that person The girl on the other side of the ocean was full of unstoppable anxiety and worry.

"All of this... doesn't Xiaofeng know?" Su Xue murmured in a daze. Even now, she herself still couldn't believe and accept this reality.

Number Five shook his head.

Then she looked at Su Xue again:

"These things, absolutely don't let Xiaofeng know for the time being."
