Chapter 2: Hug Me If You’re Afraid

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Jinhua twirled her feet against the floor awkwardly. She wanted to leave, but when she saw Jian Huaiyu’s back, she could not bear to.

There was so much she wanted to say to him, but she couldn’t.

“Come on.”

Jian Huaiyu, who had reached the door, realized that she had not followed him. He invited her in, “Why are you standing at the door? Come in.”

“Oh.”

Jinhua lowered her head and walked in like a quail.

When Mother Jian saw her, her smile was very kind. “Huahua, you’re here. Have you eaten?”

“Not yet. My mother is cooking,” Jinhua greeted with a smile. “Hello, Auntie.”

“Mn, good girl, are you looking for Huaiyu for something? You can talk in the house. I’m busy now, so I won’t entertain you.”

“It’s fine, Auntie. Do what you need to do. Don’t worry about me.”

Jinhua waited in the courtyard for Jian Huaiyu to come out of the kitchen before following him into the central room.

Jian Huaiyu’s father was an alcoholic. After he got drunk, he often beat up both the mother and son. Mother Jian could not live with him anymore, so she divorced him and brought Jian Huaiyu back to her family’s home.

This house was his grandparents’ old house. After the two old people passed away, only the mother and son were left.

Jian Huaiyu poured a glass of water and handed it to her. “Sit.”

“Thank you.”

Jinhua took it with both hands and her gaze landed on his hand.

Not only was Jian Huaiyu handsome, but his hands were also extremely beautiful and slender.

However, at this moment, there were wounds of various sizes on his fingers. There were old injuries and new injuries.

Jinhua thought that Jian Huaiyu was already learning craftsmanship from the jade crafting teacher from the next street.

A few years ago, Mother Jian developed a cancerous tumor in her uterus, and she required a lot of money for her surgery. At that time, the two elders of the family had just died of illness. Not only did their family not have any savings, but they also owed some debts. They did not have the money for her treatment.

Jian Huaiyu was a top student. He received scholarships every year, but that money was only enough to subsidize some family expenses.

He had no choice but to drop out of school and go home to work to earn money.

For the sake of survival, he never returned to school.

“How did your hand… get so injured?”

“It’s just a small injury. It’s not a big deal.” Jian Huaiyu looked down at his hand that was covered with several Band-Aids and subconsciously put it under the table. “By the way, why are you looking for me?”

Initially, Jinhua was worried that there was no reason, but now, she thought of something. “I remember that you have many books on identifying jade artifacts and jade raw stones. I’m quite curious and want to borrow a few to take a look.”

Rong Zihao’s family was in the jewelry business, and jade was also one of them. She was born with an affinity for jade and could sense if there was jade in the raw stone, as well as the quality of it.

Moreover, she had studied it deeply and was relatively proficient in professional knowledge. After all, she had to know some basic knowledge in this industry. Otherwise, wouldn’t it be suspicious if she could always pick out high-quality materials without knowing anything?

It could be said that as the Rong family developed better and better, she had also contributed a lot.

“Oh, wait here. I’ll get them for you.”

Jian Huaiyu did not hesitate at all. He did not even ask why she was suddenly interested in this and returned to his room.

After a while, he came out with a few introductory books. “There’s a lot of knowledge to learn about jade. Read the introductory books first. Otherwise, you might not be able to understand it.”

Jinhua smiled brightly and took the book happily. “Thank you, Huaiyu.”

“You’re welcome.” Jian Huaiyu coughed awkwardly. “I have a lot of books here. Come and get them anytime after you’re done. You can ask me if you have any questions.”

“Alright, it’s settled then.”

“Mm.”

Jian Huaiyu nodded. His charming peach blossom eyes were filled with a gentle light, and the faint smile on his lips was as warm as the spring sun.

When Jinhua left, Mother Jian warmly invited her to stay for dinner.

How could she have the cheek to do that? She rejected her and ran off with the books.

When she returned home, her delicate face was already covered in a thin layer of sweat.

When Feng Mingfang heard the door open, she stuck her head out of the kitchen window. “Where have you been all day? I couldn’t even stop you.”

“I went to borrow a few books from Jian Huaiyu.”

Jinhua ran back to her room, unable to stop the smile on her face.

She walked around the lively alley outside and looked at the people she was once extremely familiar with. Only then did she really feel that she was truly alive. This was not a dream.

She casually flipped through a few pages of the introductory books. It was very neat, but the edges were already slightly raised. This meant that Jian Huaiyu usually flipped through it often.

Some important parts were even outlined, and the words beside it were summarized.

Looking at the contents of these books, Jinhua could even imagine Jian Huaiyu sitting at the desk, seriously writing and drawing on it.

Jinhua stroked the pages. In this life, she would not be a moth that burned herself and illuminated others.

She would cherish her life and stay away from Rong Zihao.

With the knowledge she had learned in her previous life, she would earn money to support her family and let her mother live comfortably and happily for the rest of her life.

And Jian Huaiyu. She could not let him follow in the steps of his previous life and end up in such a miserable state.

After lunch, Feng Mingfang had to return to the supermarket to look after the place. Jinhua obediently cleaned the dishes and washed the clothes that needed to be washed by hand by the well.

After she was done, she returned to her room and dug out her little golden pig piggy bank.

This was the New Year’s money that Feng Mingfang had given her since she was young. Because it was only used for saving, she had never used the money inside.

Jinhua found a small hammer and smashed the little golden pig. She counted the amount inside. It was exactly 4,500.

She planned to visit the raw stone market sometime.

School had just started. Fortunately, her grades were very outstanding in the past. When she was locked up at home by Rong Zihao, she often read books to pass the time. It was not that difficult for her to pick them up again.

Looking at the sets of papers on the desk, she hardly needed to think to answer them quickly.

Therefore, she spent the rest of her time revising some knowledge that she needed to memorize.

…

The next morning, before Jinhua left the alley, she bumped into Jian Huaiyu, who was about to go to work. She immediately stood up and waved at him happily. “Good morning, Huaiyu.”

“Morning.”

Jian Huaiyu rode a motorcycle and wore a cool helmet. He stopped in front of her with a warm smile. “Are you going to school? Do you want me to give you a ride?”

“Isn’t this… too troublesome?”

“It’s fine. It’s not far anyway.”

Jian Huaiyu gestured for her to get on. “Let’s go.”

Seeing that it was still early and that she could save herself the trouble of squeezing on the bus with others, Jinhua did not stand on ceremony with him. She grabbed the clothes on Jian Huaiyu’s waist and climbed onto the bike. “Thank you in advance.”

“Why are you thanking me?” Jian Huaiyu’s voice was soft and energetic. “Hold on tight. Let’s go.”
