THE LIGHT OF HIS WORLD - Chapter 32 English Competition
Lin Jia Xi breathed hard as she barely held onto the back of her chair and stood up, leaning against the cold wall. She cried until even her heart began to throb for a while.
Just look at the surgical lights across the room, eyes lax.
After an hour had passed, the operation was still going on. Jia Xi didn’t dare to think about anything and stood until her legs lost consciousness.
“Xiao Xi!”
The voice came from far and near, like a life-saving rope, into Lin Jia Xi’s ears.
She turned around, and Lin’s mom and dad sprinted over and hugged her at once, and her eyes were red.
“Mom ….” Her voice was already hoarse to the point of being unbearable.
“Good girl, don’t cry, grandma will be fine.” Dad also comforted.
……
The operation was in its third hour, but still not over.
Mom looked at her daughter’s tired face and was filled with heartache. She said she had to let her go to rest. Jia Xi stiffened and had to agree, but she didn’t want to go home, head down and red eyes, heading downstairs to her grandmother’s ward.
The first thing you need to do is to get a good idea of what you’re doing.
When she was about to fall, a hand steadily wrapped around her waist.
She looked up and looked incredulously at the person who came.
Was she dreaming, otherwise why would Jane Bai, who should be far away in Beijing, appear in front of her eyes?
“It’s me.” Jane Bai held her tightly in his arms and fixed her loose hair, “Baby, I’m back, don’t be afraid.”
“You…” She wanted to say, “Shouldn’t you be in Beijing, preparing for the extra game tomorrow, but her throat felt like it was clogged with something, too sour to say anything.
Jane Bai cupped her pale little face, her eyes were red and swollen, with tear marks at the corners, and said heartily, “I’m worried about you.”
All the caution, fear and uncertainty, in his gentle words, like a spring of water rushing down.
“I …. I ….” Jane Bai can always easily make her weak.
Jane White’s cold lips fell on her eyes and kissed away her tears.
“I’m so afraid… Really …. What to do, what to do …..”
“Baby don’t cry, grandma will be able to get through it, she can’t let you go.”
Jia Xi kept nodding her head, she thought, it will pass, for sure, grandma can’t let her go.
…..
The actual fact is that you will be able to get a lot more than just a few of these. I’m fine, this competition everyone has put so much effort, you can not be absent ….” The team’s game, if because he was not there, and there is something wrong, then he has to carry how much responsibility.
In fact, Jane Bai heart had already prepared the worst plan, for him, those are not as important as this person in front of him.
However, looking at her, if he left, her heart would be more difficult, so promised her, “I’ll watch you sleep and go, okay?”
“Good ….” Auntie Liu went home, and Lin Jia Xi slept on the bed of the escort.
Jane Bai touched her forehead, “You have to be good, rest, grandma will be fine.”
The hospital in the early morning, shrouded in the smell of sterile water, and not so quiet, from time to time will come the sound of rushing. But the emotional ups and downs, as well as several hours of sleepiness and exhaustion, came up all at once, and Lin Jia Xi fell asleep in the restlessness.
Watching her drift off to sleep, Jane Bai reached out his fingers to smooth out the folds between her brows.
Squeezing the quilt, he gently closed the door and left.
The clock in the ward, ‘tah’ ‘tah’ turns softly, the hour hand points to 1 o’clock.
…….
Lin Jia Xi did not sleep soundly, waking up in a nightmare, drenched in sweat.
It’s four in the morning and Jane Bai is no longer there, it seems to have left.
She picked up her phone and was about to see if there were any missed calls.
“Squeak… Squeak squeak squeak…” Just now the phone vibrated.
“Xiao Xi, you’re awake?”
It was mom.
“Mom, how’s grandma?!” Lin Jia Xi felt her voice trembling.
“It’s okay, it’s okay, good girl, it’s been rescued, just got out of the ICU now it’s getting ready to be transferred to the ward.” The mother’s voice was joyful after the robbery.
The cord that had been taut in my head was instantly loosened.
Soon Grandma was wheeled back to the ward, the ventilator still covering her face and her eyes tightly closed. The doctor prepared the brainwave machine on the side, which still needs constant attention during this period, and explained some precautions before leaving.
She walked over to her grandmother and gently stroked her pale hand.
Mom came over to her and hugged her, “The doctor said it might be a few hours before Grandma wakes up, you must not have slept well either, come home with mommy, let daddy stay here and we will come back to visit Grandma at noon.”
She nodded and went home with her mom.
Jane Bai’s side of the game ended successfully, she estimated the time to call Lin Jia Xi again, the phone rang for a long time and was finally picked up.
“Well… Jia Xi was woken up by the ringing of her phone, her voice tinged with sleep.
“Did I wake you up?”
“No…” It was probably because her nerves were too tightly wound, and after she loosened up, her head hurt for a long time, and she couldn’t even sleep.
“Grandma, Grandma’s surgery was successful, I’ll go see her later.” Lin Jia Xi immediately shared the good news with him.
Hearing the relaxation in her tone, Jane Bai also breathed a sigh of relief, “That’s great.”
“Did you have a good time, you must not have rested well, so late and rushed back… You shouldn’t have come back, it’s all my fault ….”
“No, I slept on the plane, and even if I don’t sleep well, my IQ won’t drop, you don’t think too much.” Jane Bai joked with her.
“Then… When are you coming back?”
“In a day or two, depending on the arrangements here.”
“I’ll wait for you.”
“Okay.”
……..
At noon, Lin Jia Xi and her mother went to the hospital to see her grandmother.
Grandma had just gone through a major surgery and was not in very good spirits, but when she saw her coming, a smile appeared at the corner of her mouth.
“…. My good granddaughter, made you worry, right?” Grandma took her hand and put it in her palm.
“Scared me to death ….” Speaking of which, Lin Jia Xi’s eyes filled with tears again.
“Grandma, can not leave, can not leave you miles ….”
“I also think so, grandmother you must not miss me.”
“No more crying, then cry, grandmother can be heartbroken, look at the eyes swollen with walnuts like.”
The two grandchildren are teary-eyed, looking at each other.
The rain has cleared up.
…..
Waiting for the day Jane White returned, also came the good news.
Of course, for the students who blindly believe in his strength, this should have been the result. So after hearing that, they also became spoiled and not used to it, and as usual, congratulated Jane Bai joyfully.
However, for the senior students who have not yet experienced these, the national competition championship they would not dare to think of the honor, but also actually happened in the school, with a few storms posting, inevitably a discussion boom, Jane Bai and a group of unknown admirers.
This semester everyone is busy, each according to their own plans, steady progress.
This day, she returned from a bathroom break.
“Xi, just now the English teacher came to see you and Jane Bai, asking you to go to the office, Jane Bai has gone.” Du Ruo just happened to come back from water conservation and told her.
Lin Jia Xi’s heart tightened, called her and Jane Bai at the same time, could it be about the two of them ….
Du Ruo probably guessed what she was thinking and soothed: “Don’t worry, I see the teacher is quite happy on the surface, it should be a good thing, you go now.”
“Oh, okay.” She immediately left the classroom and went to the office.
When she arrived, the office door was open, and she saw at a glance Jane Bai standing in front of the English teacher’s office seat, with her back to her. Although, Du Ruo said it was a good thing, but the first time she encountered two people calling her and Jane Bai at the same time, she was still inexplicably a little nervous.
“Lin Jia Xi.” The English teacher saw her and waved to her.
She walked over, and Jane Bai turned to look at her and gave her a smile. Seeing his smile, Lin Jia Xi was instantly relieved and naturally walked to stand next to him.
“What is it, teacher.”
The company’s main business is to provide a wide range of products and services to the market. Our school was divided into six places, two for each grade, and agreed with the grade teachers, want to recommend you two to participate, you see if you have any objections.”
“When will it start? What is the competition system like?” Lin Jia Xi asked.
“It will start next week, the competition is divided into preliminary, final and final, and those who enter the final will need to go to the unified management of the training camp for the competition afterwards.”
Both of them expressed their understanding, and Mr. Tang said, “If you have no objections, register on the official website now and use my computer, just as I’m going on class rounds this moment.”
With that, Mr. Tang stood up and left them with their seats, mentioned a few more important things to fill out, and then left the office.
Jane Bai let her sit in Ms. Tang’s seat, and pulled an empty chair aside to sit down. Ms. Tang had already opened the English contest registration page, and she followed the process of filling out the information one by one.
“How do I get this one?” The other things Lin Jia Xi filled out very smoothly, but there is only one need to upload an electronic version of the white background inch photo, let her difficult, now where to take an inch photo.
The actual fact is that you can find a lot of people who are not able to get a good deal on this.
The office has no other teachers at this time, he directly held Lin Jia Xi’s hand and walked to a white wall, then took out his phone, “You can this wall to take pictures.”
“Ah, can, can?” Lin Jia Xi asked with uncertainty.
He took the phone and debugged the angle, “Yes, you can, you stand well I will take a picture for you.”
This is the first time Jane Bai took a picture of her, although it was only an inch photo, but she also a little suddenly did not know how to swing her hand, how her face to smile.
“Don’t be nervous,” Jane Bai lightly laughed, “head down a little, well, in the right side a little, yes, just like this don’t move.”
The ‘click’ sound, shot well.
Lin Jia Xi came over and asked him how the shot was, Jane Bai looked at it and was satisfied: “Very nice.”
He took her hand again and said, “The baby looks good in any shot.”
This person!
This is in the office ah, even if no one, but still too bold it.
She blushed, took her phone and said, “Then I’ll shoot it for you, you’ll need it later too.”
Jane Bai nodded and walked to where she was just standing and looked into the camera.
The teenager in the camera, flamboyant, without having to move specially, is a very nice picture. Lin Jia Xi quickly took a good picture, she looked at the photo especially like, and sent it to herself with Jane Bai’s phone.
Just quit the photo interface, the wallpaper of the phone came into view.
“This photo…”
Jane Bai walked to her side and she said, “You took it as wallpaper ah.”
“Because I like it a lot.”
“But, it’s too shy.”
In the photo, the young girl on the right teenager on the left, the two are intimately next to each other, the teenager’s lips kissed her face.
It was taken at that time on the Ferris wheel, she still remembered, she was about to take a picture when Jane Bai kissed over.
“What if they see you?”
“I can’t see people?” Jane Bai raised an eyebrow.
“Well…” Lin Jia Xi pretended to look down and think, then stole a glance at Jane Bai and hugged him unexpectedly and said, “Of course not.”
“And learn to tease me?”
“It’s not from you.” Lin Jia Xi clenched her fist and lightly punched him on the shoulder.
Jane Bai slightly lowered his head, exhaled hot air, and said in her ear, “…. The teacher is here.”
Her eyes widened and she immediately pushed him away, then turned around. Where was the teacher in the empty office.
Fooled!
Her right hand was raised high, making a gesture to hit him, but it was easily held by a large, strong hand.
“You, you still dare to resist.” Lin Jia Xi cocked her mouth and looked at him with dissatisfaction.
“I don’t dare,” Jane Bai laughed lightly, “but, do you give up.”
“I think…”
The words did not fall, suddenly the sound of the office door handle turning sounded.
This time, it is really a rapid, Lin Jia Xi retracted his hand.
A hand pushed the door in, preemptively, “Is the registration completed?”
“What are you two doing standing there?” Teacher Tang entered the office and saw the two of them standing by the wall.
The company’s main business is to provide a wide range of products and services to the market.
The actual fact is that you can find a lot of people who are not able to get a good deal on a lot of things.
The company’s main goal is to provide the best possible service to its customers.
This person, now really more and more bold!
The teacher is in front, Lin Jia Xi inconvenience, just quietly open his finger, and then quickly step forward.
……..
The preliminary assessment of the English competition is the selection of a 5-minute English self-introduction video, the contestants will record their own video and upload it to the website in accordance with the request, the backstage unified first round of screening, through the entry into the second round.
“The preliminary round of this video, the main assessment of the contestant’s English pronunciation, fluency, you each write a self-introduction today, and then I check and revise, and then come back tomorrow to record.”
This was not too much of a problem for the two of them, and they quickly finished it and gave it to Mr. Tang. Mr. Tang was still satisfied with their content, and only modified a few complicated sentences to make the whole self-introduction look more advanced.
At Mr. Tang’s request, they rehearsed it several times in front of him, picking up the pronunciation word by word and sentence by sentence until the pronunciation was completely correct and the utterance was very fluent. The next task of recording was left to them, except that before uploading, Mr. Tang would also review the video.
