Quick Transmigration: Kitten's Healing Handbook - Chapter 90
Chapter 90: Light In The Cracks 23
Bai Zhiheng considered that both he and Lin Yao were quite good at Science, and that he also had to repay the Bai Family’s debts, so he needed to find a major with a high salary after graduation or good entrepreneurial prospects: “I’ll go online and check it out later. Let’s meet at the library tomorrow. ”
“Ah Heng, don’t you have a part-time job tomorrow? ”
Bai Zhiheng saw that Lin Yao didn’t seem to realize that tomorrow was her birthday, so he felt even more distressed: “I’ve prepared a surprise for you, you’ll know tomorrow. ”
Bai Zhiheng and Lin Yao discussed at the library which university to attend and which major to study. They finally decided on Tsinghua University, choosing between Artificial Intelligence, Big Data Technology and Application, and Software Engineering. They decided to attend whichever one they got into. The three majors were relatively related, so even if they weren’t in the same major, what they learned could complement each other, and the job prospects were also very good.
Afterward, the two of them reviewed their studies separately. Bai Zhiheng didn’t mention anything, and Liuli didn’t ask. The romance from a young boy is still something to look forward to.
Before dinner, Bai Zhiheng asked Lin Yao to wait for him in the classroom. On Sundays, the classroom is usually empty, and by dinner time, even if there were people, they would have gone to eat. It was the perfect time for him to give Lin Yao some small surprises and gifts.
Bai Zhiheng returned to the dormitory, picked up the prepared gifts, and went to the Dorm Supervisor’s small refrigerator to get the small cake he had bought yesterday. He walked faster and faster along the way, wanting to return to Lin Yao’s side as quickly as possible.
Back in the Classroom Building, Liuli was in the corridor, leaning against the railing, looking at the bustling atmosphere of the Dining Hall in the distance. It was in stark contrast to the quietness of the Classroom Building, as if they were two completely different worlds. It reminded her of Lin Yao’s helplessness when she was standing on the rooftop of the Classroom Building. She was so regretful that she didn’t beat up the people who bullied Lin Yao!
Bai Zhiheng jogged over and took Lin Yao’s hand, eagerly pulling her away from that isolating state: “Yao Yao, I’m here. Come on, let’s go to the classroom to open the presents. ”
Bai Zhiheng took out a palm-sized small cake from the bag. The small cake was decorated with a sunflower pattern made of cream: “Yao Yao, happy birthday. I couldn’t prepare a very big cake at school, but every birthday cake I give you in the future will definitely be bigger and tastier than this one.
This will be our third promise. Let’s celebrate birthdays and eat cake together from now on, okay? ”
Liuli didn’t really notice that it was Lin Yao’s birthday today. It was rare for Bai Zhiheng to find out and even prepare a cake and gifts in the bag.
Liuli deliberately didn’t let Tuánzi spoil the surprise. Gifts are meant to be opened by oneself to create a surprise.
“Okay, I hope we can get together for every birthday in the future. ”
Bai Zhiheng didn’t rush to correct Lin Yao’s wording. He had made thorough preparations today. He lit a candle on the cake: “Make a wish. ”
Liuli made a wish that the mission would be successfully completed this time, and another one: “May we all grow towards the sun. ” Then she blew out the candle.
Bai Zhiheng took out a notebook with a rainbow printed on the cover from the bag. On the first page, sky-blue paper with golden marker wrote “YOU ARE WORTH OF LOVE AND AFFECTION You are worth of all the love and affection”. Below it were stickers of various gift boxes, toys, kittens, and puppies.
Below the stickers, it wrote “YOU DESERVE ALL THE BEAUTY IN THE WORLD You deserve all the beauty in the world”.
“Yao Yao can use this notebook to write down happy things, or to write down wishes she wants to achieve, and gifts she wants. As long as the schedule permits, we’ll go and fulfill those wishes. ”
What Bai Zhiheng didn’t say was that on the very bottom of the last page of the notebook, there was another wish of his hidden under a gift box sticker: “To hold your hand, and grow old together. ”
“This notebook is great, I really like it! ” Liuli held the notebook, somewhat reluctant to let it go. The design was thoughtful, equivalent to wish exchange coupons. Not bad, not bad.
Bai Zhiheng took out the last gift of the day from the bag, a small square box, beautifully packaged, similar in style to the packaging of the hearing aid she gave him.
Liuli opened the outer packaging. Inside was a khaki wristband embroidered with a sunflower. It was clearly hand-embroidered. It wasn’t that it didn’t look good, but the sunflower was a bit naive. It was clear that this was the result of Bai Zhiheng practicing many times.
“Ah Heng, did you embroider this? You practiced for a long time, right? It’s prettier than the one on my hand. ”
Bai Zhiheng’s cheeks flushed slightly. He himself knew that the pattern he chose was a little childish, but he couldn’t learn complex patterns in such a short time: “I’ll embroider a prettier one for you when I have the chance. Turn the wristband over; there are two lines embroidered inside. ”
“YOU ARE THE ALTAR I PRAY TO, IS THE ONLY CURE I’LL FIND You are the altar I pray to, is the only cure I’ll find”
“Yao Yao, will you be my girlfriend? ”
Liuli didn’t reject Bai Zhiheng’s closeness, but did she like him? Did she love him? What kind of emotion she felt for Bai Zhiheng was a bit beyond the scope of a cat.
After all, the reproduction of cats didn’t have so many rules, but she had seen a lot of love affairs in the Forbidden Zone when guarding reincarnation, but perhaps because of the different species, or perhaps because she wasn’t a romantic, she couldn’t really empathize.
However, for the smooth progress of the mission, it would be better to agree: “I will. ”
Lin Yao’s momentary hesitation felt like years to Bai Zhiheng. The moment Lin Yao agreed, Bai Zhiheng embraced her. This was something he had wanted to do for a long time but hadn’t dared to do as a classmate and deskmate.
Bai Zhiheng was afraid that he was too excited and would scare Lin Yao, so he forced himself to let go of her and picked up the wristband: “Can I help you put on this new wristband? ”
Liuli hesitated a little. The scar left by the stitches was indeed a bit hideous: “It will scare you, I’ll do it myself. ”
“I won’t be scared. If you don’t want me to see it, then I won’t look. ”
Seeing that Bai Zhiheng didn’t mind, Liuli reached out her hand, gesturing for him to put it on.
Bai Zhiheng carefully removed the original wristband, looked at the wound, and his eyes were full of heartache: “Does it still hurt? ”
“It’s just that the scar looks scary; it doesn’t hurt anymore. ”
“I can’t protect you every moment, but if you’re unhappy about anything, I’ll be your punching bag, let you hit and scold me. So don’t hurt yourself anymore, okay? ”
Liuli considered her dual persona and remained silent for a moment before saying: “I will try my best. ”
“Let’s work hard together. “
