The game was fast, furious and exciting.
After one round, both Qiao Lian and Shen Liangchuan were greatly excited.
She shouted uncontrollably, “One more game!”
“Ok.”
“Zi Chuan, don’t go there. Come over and help me!”
“Go, go, go! We can attack!”
“I’ll loop around to the back and you work with me from the front! Let’s kill whatever the opponent’s sending first.”
“…”
The ward was filled with gaming sounds.
Qiao Lian’s voice was attractive.
Shen Liangchuan’s laughter grew louder.
In the world of video games, there were no complicated emotions and sorrows.
After a few games, he was relaxed in a way that he hadn’t been for the longest time.
The day passed quickly.
In the evening, Xia Yehua came to see Shen Liangchuan, so she asked Qiao Lian to return home for dinner and to rest.
Qiao Lian agreed.
After saying goodbye to Shen Liangchuan, the moment she walked out of the ward, the smile on her face vanished at once.
–
Auntie Li welcomed her home the moment she entered the Shen family villa. “Madam, dinner is ready. Would you like to eat now or after you wash up?”
Qiao Lian answered, “No hurry.”
She changed into her house slippers and walked into the living room. Looking around, she inquired, “Where’s Qiao Yi?”
“Young Master Qiao Yi is upstairs reading.”
Qiao Lian nodded.
She headed upstairs, towards Qiao Yi’s room. She knocked on the door and then entered.
The boy was studying for his IELTS, as training for studying abroad. He had to pass this test.
Qiao Lian glanced at him and sat on the sofa seat next to him, observing him.
His legs had recovered and he could walk normally now.
She realized when he stood up that he had grown up, he was half a head taller than her now. He had grown into a fine young man.
She continued to observe him.
His face had lost its child-like features and looked considerably composed, like an adult’s. He no longer displayed that trusting innocence when he looked at people, but rather possessed an air of wisdom and insight.
He said as she studied him, “Sister, there’s something I’d like to discuss with you.”
Slightly surprised, she looked at him and said, “Go ahead.”
He cast his gaze down and thought for a while before he started, “Sister, I was hoping to go abroad right away.”
She froze as something inside of her stirred up.
She had not expected him to bring this up before she did.
She also had not expected that he would be this thoughtful and sensitive to her own thoughts.
Holding her gaze steadily, she encouraged him, “And?”
Qiao Yi smiled broadly as he said, “Sister, I’m grown up and can decide for myself. I’ll be 22 this year. Although my studies have been delayed, I don’t wish to be a parasite. I can go overseas and work as I study to pay my tuition fees. I could also wait for the acceptance notice from the universities, and continue studying on my own in the meantime.”
This was exactly what Qiao Lian wanted for him as well.
Although she did think that it was a rather harsh decision.
Qiao Yi continued, “Sister, you’ve looked after me for the past eight years and I really don’t wish to turn into a good-for-nothing. I can’t repay you right now, but at the very least I can look after myself.”
Qiao Lian said with clenched fists, “But after all, you haven’t been in contact with the outside world for eight years.”

“Which is why I should start!” Qiao Yi grinned. “Are you afraid that I’d be dazzled by the outside world? But I’ve seen all sorts of splendor and wealth. It’s not like we’ve never been wealthy. Don’t worry.”
She bit her lip and finally said, “Ok.”
