The next day, early morning.
“Buzz, buzz, buzz!”
Zhou Chao groggily fumbled around under the blanket for a while before finally finding his vibrating phone.
“Hello,” a lazy voice came through the phone.
Listening to the voice on the other end, Guo Yan checked the already risen sun, glanced at the time on her phone, and saw that it was already past 9 o’clock.
She took a deep breath and then spoke slowly, “Boss, it’s Gu Yan. I’m already at the Hilton Hotel entrance!”
Oh, come to the Presidential Suite on the 10th floor. And buy some breakfast. Make sure to buy more!” Visit no(v)eLb(i)n.com for the best novel reading experience
Before Gu Yan could respond, the call was abruptly disconnected!
Staring at the now-hung-up phone, Gu Yan looked puzzled for a while before snapping out of it.
Without overthinking, she simply glanced around to find a nearby place to buy breakfast and made her way there.
After buying a big bag of food, she made her way up to the specified floor as instructed by Zhou Chao.
“Knock, knock, knock!”
“Knock, knock, knock!”
“Knock, knock, knock!”
Gu Yan kept pounding the door, but there was no response from inside.
“Is our boss a pig? How can he sleep so soundly? I’ve been knocking on the door for ages, and he can’t even hear it!”
Just as Gu Yan was quietly grumbling, she noticed a figure approaching and quickly turned around.
“Phew, it’s you. You almost scared me to death!” Gu Yan patted her chest, which was on the verge of taking flight.
“Boss, is he still not awake?” The person who had arrived was Lin Wu.
“I don’t know. I’ve been knocking on the door for several minutes, and there’s been no response. Maybe we should call him?”
Before she could finish her sentence, the door was opened, revealing Zhou Chao in a bathrobe, his hair still wet, and he was occasionally patting it with a towel.
“Come in!
Guo Yan entered with the bag of breakfast, and Zhou Chao returned to his room.
After a while, he changed into fresh clothes and came out.
“Lin Wu, go wake Xiao Yan up. The sun’s been out for a while, and she’s still sleeping!” Zhou Chao said while opening the breakfast Guo Yan had bought.
“Boss, did you call me over today for something important?”
“Let’s sit down and have a bite to eat together. I assume you haven’t eaten yet. Sit down, eat, and we can talk as we go.”
Gu Yan hesitated for a moment but eventually took a seat, picking up some breakfast, and starting to eat.
After Zhou Chao finished his bun and wiped his mouth, he said, “I’m planning to arrange for all of you to go to Modu.”
“Boss, are you saying we should move the studio to Modu?”
“Yes, that’s right. I’ll take care of the studio’s office space, and of course, your accommodations will be arranged by the company. You don’t need to worry about that.”
Upon hearing this, Gu Yan’s face displayed a hint of inner conflict. She hesitated for a moment, uncertain whether she should speak up.
“If you have any concerns, just go ahead and say them. There’s no need to be so hesitant,” Zhou Chao noticed that Gu Yan seemed to have some reservations.
“Boss, I hope you won’t be upset when I say this.”
Once they arrived home, Zhou Chao led Guo Yan straight to the basement game room.
“Don’t worry, there’s no need to be nervous. You’ll definitely get a high score!”
“Bro, I’m not nervous at all. 1 think it’s you who’s nervous!”
“Don’t talk nonsense. Check your score already!” Zhou Chao pointed to the open computer and asked her to sit down.
“Okay,” Guo Yan sat at the computer, took out her old phone, and opened her album to find her admission ticket.
She opened the official website, followed the instructions to enter her admission ticket number, and paused when it came time to confirm.
“Bro, how about you take a look just in case? What if I did poorly?” Guo Yan, who had lost her previous composure, looked nervous.
“Who just said she wasn’t nervous!”
Zhou Chao glanced at her hand on the mouse and clicked it without hesitation.
Before the computer screen could display the results, Guo Yan screamed with her eyes covered, “Ah! 1 won’t look, 1 won’t look!”
This left Zhou Chao dumbfounded.
“Bro, how did 1 do?”
“The page hasn’t loaded yet; don’t panic!”
“Oh,” Guo Yan carefully removed her hands and looked at the computer.
The results were displayed in an instant.
“Bro, please look, I got 688 points, fifth in the whole of Fuzhou! Oh, Bro, look!!” Guo Yan stood up excitedly, grabbing Zhou Chao’s hand.
“I see it, I see it. Don’t get too excited!” Zhou Chao pressed her head gently, afraid that she might faint from excitement.
Zhou Chao glanced at the computer and felt a sense of relief at the score displayed there.
“I know! Hehe!”
Just as she finished speaking, Zhou Chao’s phone rang.
He took it out and saw that it was a call from Third Aunt.
“Here, it’s a call from your mom. She’s probably asking about your results!” Zhou Chao said before answering the phone.
“Hello, Third Aunt!”
“Xiao Chao, is Guo Yan with you? Her phone has been off every time 1 tried calling!”
Upon hearing this, Zhou Chao looked at Guo Yan beside him and asked, “Did you change your phone and forget to inform your mom?”
Guo Yan twirled her index fingers in a circle and said embarrassedly, “I got carried away these past few days and forgot!”
Zhou Chao shook his head in exasperation and then picked up the phone, saying, “Third Aunt, Guo Yan is with me. We were just checking her exam results. Is there something wrong?”
“You have no idea, my phone has been ringing off the hook today. Many people have been calling me. Guo Yan’s school, as well as some universities like Southwest University and Tsinghua University, all of them called hoping that Guo Yan would enroll in their schools. I haven’t had a moment’s peace since early in the morning!”
Zhou Chao suddenly remembered that he had destroyed the SIM card earlier, and no one else had Guo Yan’s phone number. Even her teachers didn’t have it, so he had to call Third Aunt.
“Third Aunt, I understand. If anyone else calls, just tell them that Guo Yan has made her decision. You can also inform her class teacher the same way.”
“Xiao Chao, which university are you planning to send Guo Yan to?”
Zhou Chao glanced at Guo Yan beside him and then said to Third Aunt, “I’m planning to send her to a military academy to toughen her up.”
“Great, great! You’re putting in so much effort for this matter!”
“We’re family, there’s no need to be so formal.”
“Alright, I’ll hang up now. I’ll inform her class teacher.”
“Okay, goodbye, Third Aunt..”
