Chapter 94 - 93 The Only Way Out
Throughout the long month of August, Zhao Meimei followed Xu Xu to the library to pass the time.
One reason was the worry that, after starting high school, she would no longer have the leisure time to read extracurricular books, and another reason was that Shi Yang was too busy.
So busy that Zhao Meimei dared not call him casually, fearing she might interrupt his business dealings.
Zhao Meimei didn’t understand her Brother Yangyang’s business acumen—she only knew he was very busy, very tired, and striving hard.
The most noticeable trait after Zhao Meimei started growing up is that she no longer just used her mouth to express concern but instead genuinely thought of the other person.
Since Zhao Meimei couldn’t call her Brother Yangyang, she started sending text messages, sending one whenever she thought of it, sometimes expressing care for his health, sometimes casually chatting, including humorous jokes, and occasionally checking up out of curiosity...
Whenever Shi Yang has time, he replies, and Zhao Meimei saves them all in the drafts box until it’s full and can’t store more, forcing her to browse through and delete less important ones, each time feeling a pang while deleting.
The library has a wide variety of books. Recently, Zhao Meimei has become fond of the books on the last three shelves on the left side of the fourth floor, which are extracurricular reads but different from what she usually reads—mostly touching love stories akin to TV dramas but more nuanced.
Many beautiful sentences within capture her heart from time to time.
Zhao Meimei is very focused while reading. She habitually props her forehead with one hand while turning pages with the other, her half-exposed profile slightly tilted up, revealing her delicate fair neck.
