Chapter 192 College Entrance Examination & Duan Xuezhi's Visit

The house was taken back and the newly purchased yard was maintained. Gu Qingyu went to the library to review peacefully every day.

With the official notice of the resumption of the college entrance examination published in the newspaper, the library was crowded every day, so Gu Qingyu moved his review space back home.

The course of history has long been different. The college entrance examination is scheduled for mid-July, and now it is less than a month away. As Gu Qingyu looks at the examination time getting closer and closer, he can't help but feel nervous.

That day, Gu Qingyu got up early in the morning and was reciting the text in the yard, but was interrupted by the sound of knocking on the door outside the yard.

"Why are you here?" Gu Qingyu opened the gate and asked curiously as he looked at Chen Yuanchao and his sister standing outside the yard.

"I'm afraid you're having a hard time reviewing, so I brought you some food to replenish your energy!" Chen Yuanchao raised the net bag in his hand and said to Gu Qingyu.

"Oh? Then I'm in for a treat today!" Gu Qingyu didn't hesitate and directly took the net bag from Chen Yuanchao's hand, then led the two of them into the yard.

Chen Mingzhu was not able to keep her words to herself. Before Gu Qingyu put the things in the kitchen, she spoke anxiously, "Qingyu, something big happened. Your parents' families returned to Beijing two days ago!"

Gu Qingyu paused holding the things in her hand, turned around to look at the Chen siblings and asked in surprise, "Are you all back?"

"Well, the two families came back one after another last Monday!" Chen Yuanchao nodded affirmatively at Gu Qingyu.

"Tsk!" Gu Qingyu didn't expect the two families to come back so soon. He couldn't help but sigh. How annoying!

"They don't know I've returned to Beijing. Even if they knew, they wouldn't know where I live. I'll go meet them after I finish the college entrance exam."

"If they ask you about me, just say you don't know. Got it?" Gu Qingyu instructed the Chen brothers and sisters.

"Don't worry!" Chen Mingzhu patted her chest and assured.

The Chen siblings had lunch at Gu Qingyu's place and then left. Gu Qingyu sat in the pavilion in the yard to rest and think about the impact of her parents' return to Beijing on her.

After thinking about it, Gu Qingyu felt that these two people might be trying to make trouble for his marriage.

Before Li Dahua passed away, Gu An had wanted to interfere in Qingyu's marriage, but Gu Qingyu ignored him.

The problem now is that Gu Qingyu has indeed reached the age to get married. She was so far away from these two people before that it was inconvenient for them to intervene even if they wanted to.

If they were both in Beijing, based on the personalities of these two people, they might really cause trouble for her!

By the way, the only one who knows that she is back and where she lives is Sun Lei, and he is not a meticulous person.

No!

She had to go and give some instructions, but she couldn't let this guy reveal her address!

Thinking of this, Gu Qingyu couldn't sit still any longer. She locked the gate and walked towards the nearest post office. She had to call Sun Lei and give him some instructions!

After carefully instructing Sun Lei to keep his mouth shut, Gu Qingyu turned a deaf ear to what was happening outside the window and focused on reading the books of sages, completely immersed in the intense college entrance examination review.

The weather is getting hotter and hotter, and the college entrance examination that has been anticipated by thousands of students for so many years has finally arrived!

The night before, Gu Qingyu stopped reviewing early and went to bed to prepare for the formal exam the next day.

The examination room assigned to Gu Qingyu was only about two kilometers away from her. After getting up early and having breakfast, she carefully checked her admission ticket before walking towards the examination room calmly.

The temperature was very high on a July morning, and Gu Qingyu was already sweating profusely when he walked into the examination room.

At this time, there was still more than half an hour before the examination room opened to let people in, and many candidates had gathered outside the examination room waiting to enter.

Seeing this, Gu Qingyu wanted to find a shady place to hide from the sun, but the shade of the trees near the entrance of the examination room was already full of people and there was no room left.

Gu Qingyu had no choice but to walk towards the alley opposite the examination room, hoping to find a cool place to rest. However, as soon as he turned into the alley, he saw three people arguing in front of him.

Seeing this, Gu Qingyu didn't want to go any further. This alley was dark and there was no sun, so she simply sat down on the steps of a house and waited for the examination room to let people in.

Just as Gu Qingyu sat down to rest, the voices of three people talking at the corner came out.

"Brother Tingchao, can you please? I specially made some mung bean soup and put it in a kettle with ice. You can take it with you and drink it when the weather gets hot!"

The soft and weak female voice sounded so familiar. Gu Qingyu couldn't help but look back.

Oh wow! It's the girl I met at the scrap yard before!

Gu Qingyu also recognized this boy. He was the one named Gu Tingchao whom she met in the library before. As for the other girl with a cold face, Gu Qingyu did not know her.

These three people are pulling and tugging at each other. Could they be performing a drama of two women fighting for one man?

Sure enough, Gu Qingyu heard another girl with a slightly cold voice say, "Liu Qingqing, if I remember correctly, you cooked this mung bean soup last night, right?"

"Even though we put it in the well and kept it on ice overnight, it's so hot out here. What if it goes bad and Tingchao gets diarrhea after drinking it? What should we do?"

Gu Tingchao, who had been about to reach out to take the mung bean soup, paused when he heard this and said to Liu Qingqing in front of him embarrassedly, "Qingqing, I think your cousin is right. It's better to be safe than sorry. I'd better just drink the boiled water!"

"Brother Tingchao, this is the mung bean soup I specially prepared all night long. I wanted to give it to you to cool down in the exam room." Liu Qingqing said to Gu Tingchao in a low voice.

Gu Tingchao looked at Liu Qingqing, who lowered her head and looked lonely, and said with a sad heart, "Then...then just accept it!"

"Tingchao!" Liu Wenwen on the opposite side saw that her cousin was just pretending to be pitiful, and Gu Tingchao accepted the things again. She couldn't help but shout at Gu Tingchao.

Gu Tingchao looked at Liu Wenwen, who was trying hard to suppress her anger and wanted to tear him apart, and he didn't know what to do for a moment.

At this moment, the bell of the examination room suddenly rang. Gu Tingchao, who was at a loss as to what to do, was delighted when he heard it. He turned to the two girls in front of him and said, "Wenwen, Qingqing, the examination room has been released. I'm going to find a classroom first!"

Having said that, she ignored the shouts of the two girls behind her and quickly rushed into the examination room, leaving the two girls staring at her back and stamping their feet.

"Liu Qingqing, you're really awesome. You're so shameless trying to get close to Ting Chao every day!"

"Cousin, what are you talking about?" Liu Qingqing looked at Liu Wenwen with an innocent expression as if she didn't understand what she was talking about.

Liu Wenwen was furious when she saw him pretending to be so innocent. "What did you say? You're shameless and trying to seduce your future cousin-in-law. You have no shame!"

"What future brother-in-law? How come I don't know?"

"The marriage between the Liu and Gu families did not specify the persons involved. It's too early to say whether Brother Tingchao is yours!" Liu Qingqing looked at the furious Liu Wenwen in front of her and said with contempt.

"You! Just wait for me!"

"After I finish the exam, I will go home and tell grandma. I will ask her to deal with you. We will see what happens." As she said that, Liu Wenwen also rushed to the examination room.

"Hmph! Liu Wenwen, you still think I am the cowardly and incompetent Liu Qingqing in my previous life. I'm not afraid of you even if you bring up the old lady!" As he said that, he walked towards the examination room.

Gu Qingyu huddled on the steps, listening with great interest to the big show happening across the street. After everyone had left, she stood up, stretched her muscles, and stamped her feet.

Sure enough, this Liu Qingqing was another person with luck. Her previous feeling at the scrap collection station was correct, but she was a little stupid and actually wanted to snatch a man from her cousin.

After the numbness in Gu Qingyu's legs subsided, she stood up and walked towards the examination room. The exam was the most important thing right now, and she didn't have time to deal with all these messy things.

Ring... Ring... Ring..., the bell for the last exam rang. Gu Qingyu put down the pen in his hand and waited for the invigilator to come and collect the papers. He breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. The exam was finally over!

Gu Qingyu tried her best in this exam. As far as she was concerned, she felt that she did quite well. She basically answered all the questions on the test paper and should be able to get into the neighboring Jingshi University.

Forget it, the exams have already been finished. There is no point in worrying about it now. She has more important things to do.

She had used up most of her savings over the years to buy a house and renovate the courtyard. Since there were still about two months left before school started, she had to prepare and get some money, otherwise life would be difficult without money.

Gu Qingyu had a good plan, but he didn't expect to be tripped up by Duan Xuezhi who suddenly showed up.

When Gu Qingyu looked at Duan Xuezhi, whose face was rosy, he knew that she had lived a good life in recent years.

But thinking back to when they left, they almost had a falling out, she didn't expect that the other party would actually come to her on his own initiative now. This was really like a weasel paying a New Year's visit to a chicken, with no good intentions.

Gu Qingyu secretly raised his guard, but he still looked at Duan Xuezhi politely and asked, "Why did you come here?"

"Why, can't I come?" Duan Xuezhi pushed away Gu Qingyu's hand on the door and walked directly into the courtyard.

"I thought we had reached an agreement not to interfere with each other!" Gu Qingyu said in a light tone.

Gu Qingyu's words made Duan Xuezhi feel inexplicably angry, but she also knew that she had no weight in Gu Qingyu's eyes, so she had to suppress her anger and walk around the house.

Gu Qingyu didn't have the time to waste with Duan Xuezhi. She walked into the pavilion and sat down, saying to Duan Xuezhi bluntly, "Just tell me what you want to say. There's no need to play any emotional cards between the two of us."

"Okay, then I'll just say it directly. You're old now, and it's time to get married. Do you have any plans?"

"Oh? Since you asked this, you must have an idea. Can you tell me about it first?" Upon hearing this, Gu Qingyu leaned against the pillar of the pavilion and asked with pretended anticipation.

Duan Xuezhi originally thought that Gu Qingyu would be furious after hearing what she said, but she didn't expect that Gu Qingyu did not get angry, but spoke to her in a kind tone.

When did this girl become so good-tempered?

Duan Xuezhi looked at Gu Qingyu suspiciously for a long time, but seeing that he always had such a calm expression, she stopped worrying about what Gu Qingyu was thinking.

"It's like this. I heard from Gu An that he wanted to introduce you to someone before, but you rejected him?"

Ok?

Upon hearing this, Gu Qingyu raised his eyebrows and glanced at Duan Xuezhi. He didn't expect that the other party came here today because of Gu An's matter.

These two people have basically not had any contact with each other since their divorce. Why are they getting together again now?

Gu Qingyu kept this matter in mind. She felt that she needed to find out more about the hidden things in it.

"Ah? Is that the case?" Gu Qingyu came back to his senses and said indifferently.

Duan Xuezhi looked at Gu Qingyu, as if to say, "Why are you so ignorant?" and said, "I have to say something to you. The person your father introduced to you is General Lin's eldest grandson. How could you refuse without even meeting him?"

"General Lin? Is it General Lin Wei?" Gu Qingyu asked in surprise.

"Yes, it's General Lin Wei!"

Gu Qingyu was extremely surprised when she heard Duan Xuezhi's affirmative answer. You know, General Lin Wei was a founding general and he was truly powerful.

How could Gu An, a small brigade commander, marry into such a prominent family? There must be something fishy going on!

Gu Qingyu came back to her senses and said to Duan Xuezhi, "Since it's so good, why don't you introduce Jiang Mingyue to her? Mingyue is twenty this year, right?"

"You...what are you talking about? Your sister is only a little girl, why is she in such a hurry to get married?"

Looking at Duan Xuezhi's anxious expression, Gu Qingyu was certain that there was something wrong with this eldest grandson of the Lin family.

After confirming the situation, Gu Qingyu no longer had the time to continue chatting with Duan Xuezhi.

"Okay, I don't know what benefit Gu An gave you to ask you to come and persuade me."

"But you can go back and tell Gu An that I won't do this. If he sets his sights on me again, I'll spread the word in Beijing that Gu An is selling his daughter for fame."

"I don't care about shamelessness anymore. If things get out of hand, he'll be the one to be embarrassed!"

"Or, should I find a way to introduce Jiang Mingyue over there?" Gu Qingyu looked at Duan Xuezhi coldly and said.

Duan Xuezhi was frightened by Gu Qingyu's words and stammered, "You...what does this have to do with Mingyue? Why did you bring Mingyue up?"

"Then what does this matter have to do with you? Are you here to lobby for Gu An?" Gu Qingyu asked back.

"Forget it, I don't care!"

"This is a matter between you and your daughter. You can deal with it yourselves!" Duan Xuezhi said and ran away from Gu Qingyu's house.

Gu Qingyu looked at Duan Xuezhi's embarrassed back as she left, and her heart was not moved at all. Her parents really had no feelings for her.

However, half a year has passed, and Gu An has not given up and wants to introduce her to someone. It seems that she needs to find out more about the Lin family.

But there is no need to rush this matter. She should think of a way to make money first.
