Chapter 137 Return to the City 3

On the day the admission notice arrived, a swarm of reporters followed, along with the county education bureau officials carrying bonuses. Four or five cars arrived in a row, causing a sensation throughout the entire Malutun village.

Of the several teams under the Red Flag Brigade, only Malutun had 45 students taking the college entrance examination, with 21 being admitted.

And most importantly, the top scorers in both the humanities and sciences came from Malutun.

Naturally, this outcome brings joy to some and sorrow to others.

Ye Hua's face turned ashen. Everyone had received their admission notices except for two male educated youths, Li Zhaodi, and a few villagers. Naturally, those who were not admitted were dissatisfied with this result.

Duan Jianhua has been visibly happy these past few days, and his happiness reached its peak today.

He walked with a brisk and energetic stride, looking quite pleased with himself.

"Slaughtering two pigs! This is great news! Hahaha! So many college students..."

Now it's not just Malutun that's famous.

Even he, as the production team leader, became famous throughout the surrounding villages.

Not to mention, the top scorers in both arts and sciences come from their village.

Although they were sent-down youth, they were still sent-down youth who came from Malutun! A significant achievement in their resumes.

Gu Zuozuo slipped away as soon as the reporter entered Malutun.

She doesn't like being too flashy, surrounded by people and looked at like a monkey.

"Where is the top scorer?"

"The top scorer has run away!"

Wearing a crisp old military uniform, Duan Jianhua happily waited for his photo to be taken: ...?

Why is this girl holding him back now?

"Bring her back!"

……………………*^O^* I am the dividing line where time flies by and never returns!

Carrying her luggage, Gu Zuozuo stood in front of an unfamiliar small villa and looked at the courtyard with its gate tightly closed.

"Zuo Zuo, your parents live here now..."

Seeing that she didn't seem inclined to go in, Cai Wenyue, who was leading the way, turned back to look at her in confusion.

"What's wrong? Is something the problem?"

Gu Zuozuo tightened her grip on the duffel bag, vigorously wiped the cold sweat from her palms, and looked up with a slight smile.

"It's nothing. I haven't seen them in a long time, so I'm just a little nervous about returning home."

Interrupting her from asking the question she wanted to ask, another person stepped forward to knock on the door.

Squeak~

The red lacquered wooden door opened, and a fair-skinned girl in a yellow dress stared at them in bewilderment.

"Huh? Who are you looking for?"

Cai Wenyue also took a step back in confusion, looked at the house number above her head, and looked at the girl with a face full of question marks.

"Is this Professor Gu Tingye's residence? We're looking for Professor Gu and Professor Xie."

The girl tilted her head, glanced at the two people outside the door, and finally her gaze settled on Gu Zuozuo, who had been silent all along. A knowing sneer flashed in her eyes, and then she regained her innocence.

"Godparents are home, would you like to come in?"

Cai Wenyue and Gu Zuozuo were not stupid; they could naturally see the girl's unusual behavior. They simply watched the girl talk to herself without saying a word.

The girl's polite smile gradually faded, and she became somewhat embarrassed. In the end, she simply stepped aside, gesturing for them to come in.

Gu Zuozuo's emotions vanished completely upon hearing her call him godfather and godmother. She returned to her indifferent demeanor, strode inside, and didn't even glance at the girl.

Cai Wenyue scoffed, concealing the disdain in her eyes, and followed after them.

Gu Tingye sat leisurely in a rocking chair by the door, flipping through the newspaper in his hand, while Xie Jingyao quietly arranged flowers beside him. The atmosphere seemed very warm and beautiful.

"Godmother, we have guests!"
