191 Problem with your scalp

Penny's round eyes twinkled with curiosity as shallow lines appeared between her brows.

"So soon?" she added, assuming Renren meant he wanted to go home now.

Renren shook his head. "I'm leaving the country."

"Oh..."

"My elders found a specialist that can help me with my condition, but she's based abroad. So, I have to fly there and get treatment and therapy."

Penny blinked, her lips partially open. After a second, she rocked her head. "When are you leaving?"

"I was supposed to leave a few days ago, but I postponed it. So, my flight's tomorrow."

"Oh..." Penny rocked her head again. "Why did you postpone it? If you left immediately, you could've started the treatment right now!"

"Heh." He smiled. "I want to see Chunchun first."

Penny bit her tongue and scrunched up her nose. Not that she was expecting him to say the reason was her, but his health was the most important.

"You told me that you want a friend who doesn't die early," he recounted, watching her round eyes hold his again. "I want to keep our friendship, so I don't mind going somewhere far to extend my life." Penny's shoulders relaxed as she heaved a sigh of relief. "I'm glad to hear that."

"You said we'll be friends for a long time," he continued, pausing as his brows rose meaningfully. "Are we still going to be friends, even if I'm far away?"

"Of course!" Penny exclaimed without a second hesitation. "Even if you're on the opposite side of the world, our friendship will remain!" 2

"That's reassuring to hear."

"Distance will not change that," she reassured with a nod. "Also, don't worry about Chunchun, because I will take care of it."

Renren smiled and nodded in understanding. "I know you will take care of them."

"Anyway, how long are you going to stay abroad?" she asked out of pure curiosity.

"I don't know." He shrugged and pondered before casting her a look. "But I will come back."

Penny chuckled. "Okay."

"Will you still be here by then?"
