Jiang Jiao and Li Bala didn't expect it to be such a coincidence that they actually ran into Zhao Shucheng's parents coming back. They didn't want to stay here any longer. After all, Zhao Shucheng must have a lot to say to his parents, so after sitting for a while, they left in a hurry.

Seeing that they had all left, Zhuang Meijuan curiously sat next to Zhao Shucheng and asked, "Son, these two girls are both good, who do you like?"

Zhao Shucheng smiled and said, "Why do you ask that? Can't I like them all and let them all be your daughters-in-law?"

Zhuang Meijuan smiled and said, "I don't mind, but I'm afraid your uncle Jiang will come to your house and beat you. Besides, it's a question whether they can accept you as someone who just studies hard."

Zhao Shucheng smiled and said, "Let's not talk about this. By the way, Mom, how is your health? Have you fully recovered?"

"Not yet. I still need to take medicine for a while and go to the hospital for regular checkups. If it doesn't relapse, it should be completely cured."

Zhao Shucheng nodded and said, "That's the best. But mom, after you're cured, you should still find an old Chinese doctor to treat you. After all, Western medicine treats the symptoms, while Chinese medicine treats the root cause. Only by strengthening the root cause can you protect your body from the pain."

"We both know that, so don't worry about me. How was your exam? No pressure, right?"

Zhao Shucheng said: "Why should I feel any pressure? I have already been recommended for admission, and the college entrance examination is just a formality. Besides, my grades are pretty good, and if nothing unexpected happens, I will definitely be the top scorer this time."

"It's good that you have confidence, but you can't be too conceited. You have to know that there are always people better than you." Xu Ruiyang said on the side.

"My son is capable and good at studying, he is not conceited!"

When Xu Ruiyang heard Zhuang Meijuan say this, he could only say, "Okay, okay, you are right, our son has the best future."

In the following period of time, Zhang Yang was busy working to earn tuition and living expenses. After all, after losing Jiang Jiao, his big sponsor, he could only find ways to make money on his own.

Zhao Shucheng packed his luggage with his parents, preparing to wait for the college entrance examination results to come out, fill out his application form, and then go to the Magic City with his parents.

However, what Zhao Shucheng did not expect was that during this period, Li Bala and Jiang Jiao, as if they had discussed it beforehand, took turns appearing in front of him. Sometimes they went out to eat, sometimes they went to the amusement park or the beach to play, but they never appeared in front of Zhao Shucheng at the same time like last time, which made Zhao Shucheng breathe a sigh of relief.

Li Er felt a little disappointed. She would no longer be able to see Zhao Shucheng at school. In fact, after Zhao Shucheng went to college in the future, her contact with Zhao Shucheng would become less and less.

When Li Bala was about to go play with Zhao Shucheng that day, he was stopped by his cousin, who said:

"Come on, I'll take you home!"

"It's okay, don't worry about me. The old woman has invited a bunch of people to play mahjong. Even if I go back now, I can't sleep. Besides, I have a date!"

My cousin said, "I heard that your mother married a foreigner and is now stable. She will definitely come back before the Chinese New Year and take you away!"

Li Bala said, "Do you believe what she said?"

"Your mother has had a hard time, don't hate her so much."

"If I were a child and she wanted to take me away, I might agree. But now I am an adult and have someone I like. Do you think I should give up my love and go with her?"

Li Bala's cousin was stunned for a moment and said, "But even if you don't want to go, at least you should tell her clearly in person when the time comes."

"Don't worry, I won't hide from her. After all, it's not me who did anything wrong to her. She abandoned me. Of course, I don't hate her either. After all, I don't even remember what she looks like."

Soon, the college entrance examination results came out.

What was somewhat surprising was that Zhao Shucheng almost scored full marks and successfully won the title of provincial top scorer in science.

When Tianyi High School learned about Zhao Shucheng's results, they were naturally very happy and hung a banner outside the school to publicize that a top scorer in the college entrance examination had emerged from the school.

These days, the emergence of a top student can greatly enhance the reputation of a school, especially for those high-quality students, it is even more tempting.

Zhao Shucheng didn't look surprised at all when he saw his results. He just thought about it briefly and then filled in the application form according to his previous plan. In fact, he had already received a recommendation quota, so filling in the application form was just a formality.

On the day the results were announced, Li Er was also very concerned about the college entrance examination score list. After learning about Zhao Shucheng's results, he breathed a sigh of relief, but at the same time, he secretly told himself that he must work hard and strive to be admitted to the same university as Zhao Shucheng.

But Zhang Yang was in a miserable situation because of the continuous setbacks before the college entrance examination. Even though he performed well, he could only get a junior college score in the end. He will have to study in a junior college in the future.

This was hard for both Zhang Yang and Zhang Lide to accept. Zhang Lide even hoped that Zhang Yang would repeat a year, otherwise he would not pay for Zhang Yang's living expenses and tuition.

However, Zhang Yang no longer had the heart to repeat his studies. During this period of time, he received a piece of news while working. After the typhoon, he cooperated with a black man with whom he had a grudge before, and together they went to transport oysters from the oyster breeding base.

At first, Hei Ren was suspicious of why Zhang Yang wanted to cooperate with him, but after hearing Zhang Yang say that they were acquainted after fighting, and thinking that this business was profitable, he agreed. Things developed similarly to what Zhang Yang said, and both of them eventually received generous rewards, which was more than they could earn in working for several months before.

He felt that since there was no hope for him in school, he might as well start a business with others, so that he could become successful and make those who looked down on him regret their previous indifference.

He was in a bad mood and drank alone in the restaurant, and finally got drunk.

The waiter wanted to persuade Zhang Yang to go home, but Zhang Yang refused to leave and even said that he no longer had a home.

The waiter was helpless and could only take Zhang Yang's phone and call his friends in his address book, asking them to pick him up.

Unfortunately, after hearing that Zhang Yang was drunk, both Jiang Jiao and Li Bala asked the waiter to call other people and not to disturb them.

In the end, it was the waiter who found Youta's phone number and asked Youta to come and pick up Zhang Yang home.

When Youta saw Zhang Yang who was drunk, he seemed to know why Zhang Yang got himself drunk. After sighing, he helped Zhang Yang leave the restaurant.

When Zhang Lide saw Zhang Yang being sent home by Youta, he couldn't help but sigh. Why did his adopted son have such a personality? Why didn't he want to listen to him repeat a year?

The next day.

Zhang Yang received a call from Blackie’s younger brother, telling him that Blackie was in trouble.

Zhang Yang was worried about their business, so he was in a hurry to go out. When Zhang Lide saw him, he asked worriedly, "Yang, where are you going?"

"My friend is in trouble, I have to go check it out." "Be sure to be safe!"

Zhang Yang came to the seafood wholesale market and met up with Heizi's younger brother on the way. Only then did he find out that it was Boss Luo, who had been occupying the seafood market, who found out that Heizi and his gang had taken over his business, so he deliberately made trouble and locked Heizi up.

"Boss Luo, my brother is ignorant, please be merciful and let him go."

"The person who just caused trouble at my stall and forced me to close it was your boss?"

Zhang Yang also knew that he couldn't afford to offend Boss Luo, so he said, "With you here, there is no need for other bosses."

"Hmph, you're good at talking. Let me put it this way. If you help me clean up this place and pay me 10,000 or 8,000 yuan, I'll let the man go."

Zhang Yang felt a little embarrassed after hearing this. After all, he had only earned this little this time, so he naturally didn't want to work in vain.

"Boss, can you give me less?"

"Were you buying groceries with me?"

Zhang Yang was somewhat reluctant to keep the money in his hands. This was money he had earned by risking his life, and now he had to give it to others before he could even warm up to it.

But he was also very clear that if he didn't give it to Boss Luo, not only would the black man not be released, but Boss Luo might also cause trouble in the future. He didn't want him to make his family a mess, so he had no choice but to give it to Boss Luo.

Boss Luo saw that Zhang Yang had given in and took the money with a smile, but found that Zhang Yang was still reluctant to let go and took it away with force.

"It would have been better if you had done this earlier. Let him go!"

The black man was severely beaten by Boss Luo, so Zhang Yang had to take the black man to the hospital for treatment with his younger brother.

In the hospital, looking at the black man lying on the bed, Zhang Yang felt more and more aggrieved. He risked his life to go out to sea to make money, but now all his efforts were in vain, just because Boss Luo occupied the seafood market and acted ruthlessly.

Neither he nor the black man could swallow this humiliation. They felt that they could not just accept defeat and would retaliate sooner or later.

Zhao Shucheng didn't know what happened to Zhang Yang. If he knew, he would definitely think that Zhang Yang was asking for trouble. In fact, he should have considered the consequences of offending Boss Luo long before he planned to do this business.

After all, Boss Luo has always controlled the share of the seafood market. If they want to grab the business, they can't really do nothing. If they are not satisfied with the benefits and still do business in Boss Luo's seafood market, aren't they waiting for others to cause trouble?

Li Bala made an appointment with Li Er and said, "I have good news for you."

"what?"

Li Bala said, "I'm going to Shanghai to perform, so I may rarely go back to the Forget It Bar in the future."

"Are you doing this for Xu Yi?" Li Er asked Li Bala.

"There are reasons for this, but more importantly, I want to go out and see different scenery. Little Ear, don't forget me in the future. Remember to call me."

"I will!"

Hearing that Li Bala was going to Shanghai to look for Zhao Shucheng, Li Er suddenly envied her. He hadn't graduated from high school yet, so he couldn't live in the same city with Xu Yi. Maybe when he graduated and went to Shanghai, Li Bala would already be with Xu Yi.

In fact, Li Er wanted to ask about the relationship between Li Bala and Zhang Yang. After all, she knew that the person Li Bala liked was Zhang Yang. But seeing Li Bala's current state, she couldn't bring herself to ask.

The first thing Blackie did after being discharged from the hospital was to find Li Bala, wanting to tell her what had happened to him recently.

But Li Bala doesn't like black people at all, so her attitude towards them has always been so cold.

"Blackie, I'm leaving here. We may rarely see each other in the future. Don't keep your heart on me. I won't like you. Even if I can't be with Xu Yi, I won't marry you. So you should find a good girl and live a good life together."

The black man said, "Li Bala, I know you may not like me, but I can't live without you. I will definitely marry you. No matter how long it takes, I will wait for you here."

After Hei Ren and Li Bala separated, they went straight to Zhang Yang to drink together. He felt that the two of them were in the same boat, both of them were pursuers of Li Bala who could not get her love, but he never thought that he had accidentally ruined Li Bala's plan.

Zhang Yang was very happy to drink with Hei Ren at first, but when he heard Hei Ren say that Li Bala was going to Shanghai and chose to be with Xu Yi, he suddenly became more sober.

"Are you saying that Li Bala is going to look for Xu Yi?"

"Yes, Li Bala actually belongs to this small city, and Xu Yi has lofty ambitions. He will wait for Li Bala here for his whole life, waiting for him to come back."

Zhang Yang listened to the black man's words without saying anything, looking into the distance thoughtfully.

He was a little hesitant, wondering whether he should go find Li Bala right now and ask her why she said that to the black man. But he was also worried that when he went to find Li Bala, he would run into Xu Yi. Wouldn't that let Xu Yi find out something was wrong?

His college entrance examination results were not good, so he could only go to a technical college, but he did not want Xu Yi to do well, so he naturally hoped that Li Bala could really ruin Xu Yi's reputation in the new school.

He kept telling himself that the reason why Li Bala said that to Blackie was to make Blackie give up, because in fact, the person she loved in her heart was still him. The reason why she said she loved Xu Yi was because she was worried that Blackie would let it slip and let Xu Yi know. After all, Li Bala didn't know that she and Blackie had made peace and were still doing business together.

Maybe Li Bala actually wanted to provoke the black man and make him go and cause trouble for Xu Yi again? After all, the black man had gone to Zhao Shucheng to settle accounts many times before, but in the end, Zhao Shucheng taught the black man a lesson, while he himself remained unscathed.

After filling out their applications, Zhao Shucheng and others left the city with their parents and returned to their home in Shanghai.

After returning home, Zhao Shucheng did not sit idle at home. Instead, he took advantage of his time to apply for a driving school and prepare to get a driver's license.

Although he has good driving skills, he is still a student who has just finished the college entrance examination in this world. He does not have a driver's license, so it will be inconvenient for him to drive when the time comes.

Xu Ruiyang and Zhuang Meijuan were naturally very happy to see that their son had something to do. They also told Zhao Shucheng that after he passed the driving test, they would give him a car so that he could drive to school.

Zhao Shucheng did not reject his parents' kindness, but he also said that the gift he wanted most was to rent a house near the school so that he could occasionally stay outside the school. (End of this chapter)
