A profound sense of loss washed over me.

Shen Mubai was flustered and embarrassed, but Bai Yan suddenly smiled, put her arm around his head, and gently kissed his lips.

"you……"

"You...you..."

The former school bully now looks like a virtuous woman being bullied.

Bai Yan looked at the young man in front of her with amusement. His gaze always followed her, as bright and sparkling as a star.

She's not stupid; how could she not see through Shen Mubai's feelings for her?

After that kiss, she was certain of her feelings for Shen Mubai.

However, they are still too young, so Bai Yan doesn't plan to commit to a relationship so soon.

So when Shen Mubai asked her what she meant, Bai Yan simply said, "I'll kiss you for as many minutes as you get your college entrance exam score, okay?"

Shen Mubai's throat tightened. "Really?"

Bai Yan smiled: "Of course."

...

On the day of the college entrance examination, Shen Yi and Bai Yan went together to see Shen Mubai off to take the exam.

Yes, Bai Yan did not take the college entrance examination this year. She had already received an admission letter from a prestigious foreign university, so she did not take the exam.

Shen Mubai was furious that she wasn't going to take the exam, but when he thought about their previous agreement, he still went to take the exam obediently.

After the college entrance examination ended, the results were released one after another.

Song Sisi performed exceptionally well and was admitted to a top design school in China, while Pei Xun was admitted to Qingdao University.

Because the two families had a good relationship, and Song Sisi and Pei Xun were boyfriend and girlfriend, they decided to hold their graduation banquets together.

Song Sisi wore a haute couture gown and expensive jewelry, and her mother also put a crown on her head.

"Sisi, you will be the most eye-catching princess in the entire room today." Song's mother said with a face full of love.

Song Sisi looked up, her eyes filled with emotion and guilt: "Mom, I'm sorry. I heard that Xiaoyan didn't take the college entrance exam this year. It's my fault. I didn't expect her to risk her future like this..."

Before Song's mother could speak, Song's father came in and said, "This has nothing to do with you. She has a bad temper."

"She's already eighteen, there's nothing we can do about it. If she likes to hang out with hooligans like Shen Mubai, let her do it."

Song's father said disdainfully, "He's destined to amount to nothing in this life."

Instead, Song's mother sighed, "This child is so disappointing." They only wanted her to drop out of school, but they didn't expect her to threaten to sever ties with them. It's not like she's not going to take the college entrance exam.

"On such a joyous day, let's not talk about unhappy things," said Song's father. "Come on, Sisi, you're the leading lady today. You're going to dance the opening dance with Pei Xun."

Song Sisi blushed, lifted her skirt, and got up to leave.

The waltz music was melodious, and Song Sisi and Pei Xun finished their opening dance under the spotlight.

"They're a perfect couple, a match made in heaven!" someone exclaimed at the ball.

"They both attended top universities, and one of them is a famous designer. They're a perfect match." Someone asked Pei's father, "Why not take this opportunity to celebrate twice and get the two children engaged?"

Mr. Pei raised his wine glass: "They're only eighteen. We're not those old fogies. We'll make sure our kids finish college..."

Pei Xun stood beside his father. The Pei family was wealthy, but his son's admission to a prestigious university made him even more proud.

Isn't this better than those nouveau riche sending their incompetent second-generation kids to study abroad?

Pei's father couldn't help but think of his other son, Shen Mubai.

He's a troublemaker at school, probably not even good enough to get into a junior college, but with Chen Yi around, he can at least get a degree from some dubious foreign university.

But at that moment, someone suddenly shouted, "Old Pei, Old Pei! Come quick, isn't that your son on TV?!"

Pei's father frowned: "What?"

"Our city's TV station is interviewing this year's top scorer in the college entrance examination. This looks like your son."

Pei's father said, "Impossible, isn't Xiao Xun right here?"

"Really! Come and see!"

The person speaking was an old business partner of Pei's father, so it was impossible for him to be tricked like this. Pei's father walked over to the person's phone, and to his surprise, the person appearing on the screen was his son, Shen Mubai, whom he had always looked down upon.
