Chapter 291 I Can't Live Without You

"Missed?"

The other party suddenly raised his voice so loudly that almost the entire inn could hear it, not to mention the second floor.

Then, as if he had come to his senses, he quickly covered his mouth.

"Sorry, I'm sorry, I was too surprised just now, and I couldn't control it for a while. It's just... how could this happen? Brother Chai, you are such a talented person. When we were writing articles together, everyone agreed that even If we fail the exam, you will definitely pass! But why do you..."

He seemed to have regret on his face, but his eyes were full of light, and the excitement and gloating in his eyes were obvious.

"Even if I didn't win, I can't help it." Chai Dong replied calmly, "So, congratulations this time."

"Thank you very much!" The other party finally grinned uncontrollably.

After laughing for quite a while, he put away his smiling face again, pretended to say a few words of comfort to Chai Dong, and left in a hurry.

When he went downstairs, he completely let go of his throat and laughed out loud!
The wanton laughter could be heard clearly throughout the inn.

And when they got downstairs, the shop waiter and the others also swarmed over and started to get close to him, complimenting laughter came over one after another.

This lively scene was in stark contrast to Chai Dong's desertedness when he entered the door just now.

Chunzhi suddenly felt very uncomfortable.

Chai Dong also had a sullen face, and he immediately walked into the room quickly.

Chun Zhi quickly followed in, and saw that Chai Dong had already sat down by the window.

He stared blankly at the pen, ink, paper and inkstone in front of him, as well as the thick stack of books on the desk, with complex expressions on his face.

Chun Zhi walked over slowly, and she asked softly, "How does it feel to fail the exam? Does it feel good?"

"It's not good." Chai Dong shook his head.

Chun Zhi twitched the corner of his mouth. "I always thought you wouldn't fail."

In fact, even before looking at the list just now, she was still holding on to the last glimmer of hope.But after reading it several times and finding that his name was not on the three lists, she completely gave up.

He really missed this time.

A wry smile appeared on the corner of Chai Dong's mouth. "I also always thought that I would make great progress all the way, pass the Jinshi examination smoothly, and then enter the court as an official. But now it seems that I am still too naive. After such a blow, my self-confidence completely collapsed. In the examination room, my mind was like a mess. Not only could I not write a few words, but my hands were shaking when I was answering the questions! Do you know, I didn’t even finish the paper... For the first time in my life, I didn’t answer the questions. Completed!"

"Really? So that's the case." Chun Zhi nodded.

Chai Dong also nodded, and his wry smile grew bigger and bigger.

"The feeling of failing the exam is really uncomfortable. Especially when the person you have always looked down upon actually passed the exam, and he comes to you to show off his power, the feeling is even stronger. Originally, I could have passed the exam. better one!"

However, it is too late to say anything now.

"Since we didn't win, let's pack up our things and go home tomorrow! It's been a long time since we came out this time, and the money on hand has already been spent." Chun Zhi said softly.

This time they came to the capital city for the exam, and it can be said that they spent more money than the sum of the previous exams in the county and the provincial capital.After all, the capital city is far away, so food, clothing and housing for so many people along the way is a considerable expense.Now after arriving in the capital, in order to let him have a quiet environment for reading, Chun Zhi did not share a house with others like last time, but chose a clean and comfortable inn, just to let him read with peace of mind.Before and after, they spent more than 40 taels of silver!
In the end, he handed over such an answer sheet.

This can't help but disappoint her.

After leaving this sentence, Harue was about to turn around and leave.

Seeing this, Chai Dong quickly grabbed her hand.

"I'm sorry," he whispered.

"Things have come to this point, and it's useless to say anything else. You rest first, I'll go say hello to Mother and the others, and ask Ren Boy and the others to pack up the carriage. Now we go back, and we should still be able to catch up with the species." Rice." Chunzhi said, shook off his hand and left.

This time, Chai Dong did not keep her.

He just quietly watched her figure go away, and the outstretched hand slowly fell back.

Then, he suddenly raised his hand and slapped himself across the face. "Chai Dong, so that's all you have to offer?"

After Chun Zhi walked out, she went directly to Wang's room.

Mrs. Wang didn't go out these days, so she locked herself in the room to take care of the children.Now when Chun Zhi came over, Mrs. Wang was still bowing her head to make tiger-toed shoes for Li Xiaozi.

Li Xiaozi was running around the house, having fun with Xiao Hei.

"Mother!" Seeing Chun Zhi approaching, Li Xiaozi quickly cheered, and threw himself into Chun Zhi's arms cheerfully.

Chunzhi hugged her son, and she came to sit down in front of Mrs. Wang: "Mother, let's pack up today and go back tomorrow!"

Wang quickly raised her head. "Go back? You...I...you still allow me to go back?"

The cautious look on her face made Chun Zhi's heart ache.

Chunzhi let out a sigh of relief. "Wangjiacun is your hometown, and we borrowed your identity to live there! And since we came together, of course we have to leave together. The whole family is neat and tidy, and no one can live there. few."

"But my son..."

Wang moved her lips, and then looked to the next door eagerly.

Since all the truth was revealed, she never dared to appear in front of Chai Dong again.However, after not seeing Chai Dong for several days, she was actually thinking a lot.But as the pusher who ruined the Chai family, how could she have the face to meet him?

At least, she felt that she didn't have that face.

"He didn't blame you." Chun Zhi shook his head gently, "Since he called you mother, you will be his mother all his life. He told me that without you, he would not be where he is today. So, he would I will take care of you as my own mother for the rest of my life."

"That's what they said before this incident happened?" Wang laughed dryly.

"No matter when he said it, as a man, he must do what he says." Chun Zhi said solemnly.

Wang paused, but still hesitated.

At this time, there was a sudden knock on the outer door panel.

"Mother." Chai Dong's voice came in.

Wang shi immediately shuddered, and she quickly stood up. "Son!" She called out excitedly, but immediately realized that she shut her mouth again.

Then, the door was pushed open from the outside, and Chai Dong came in.

"Mother." He came to Mrs. Wang and greeted her respectfully, "A few days ago, my son was not filial. I just dawdled around every day, but I didn't even come to you to perform my filial piety. My son knew it was wrong, so I'm not filial." Mother, please don't be angry with the child."

"No, no, how could I be angry with you?" Wang quickly waved her hand.As long as she saw that Chai Dongken took the initiative to appear in front of her and talked to her so kindly, she would be moved to the point of crying, what other request could she have?

Now, her eye sockets have become wet.

But Chai Dong knelt down in front of her with another plop.

"My son!" Seeing this, Wang's face turned pale with fright.

"What are you doing? Get up, get up!" She hurriedly yelled to pull Chai Dong.

Chai Dong grabbed her hand. "Mother, the baby is useless, I have let you down this time!"

What he said about disappointing her, of course Wang knew it well.That person had been yelling at the door of their room for a long time just now, and now the whole inn knew about Chai Dong's failure.Wang is naturally one of them.

It's just that she never thought that Chai Dong would take the initiative to confess his mistake to her because of this matter.

"It's nothing, it's mother's fault. If mother hadn't been hiding those things from you, if mother hadn't been trying to get away with it all the time, how could you be bullied by so many of them all of a sudden, and ended up like this? You this time It's all mother's fault if you don't hit, don't blame yourself!" Shi Wang hurriedly yelled, desperately trying to pull him up.

Chai Dong still knelt on the ground without moving a muscle.

He only looked up at Wang Shi. "Mom, it was the baby who broke your heart a few days ago. But since things are over, let's let them go, and don't let those sad things ruin our good life. You are my mother, You are also my only elder in this world, I cannot do without you."

"My, my son!"

When Mrs. Wang heard this, she finally couldn't control her tears, so she shouted at the top of her lungs, knelt down, hugged Chai Dong and cried loudly.
