If they went back after the exam at noon, there wouldn't be enough time. So, after discussing it together, Gu's father and Aunt Qi decided to do it this way, even though Gu Luoqi herself said it wasn't necessary.
Perhaps they were too enthusiastic, because Gu Luoxi ultimately couldn't refuse.
Qi Sheng came back this week and, as usual, accompanied her out for a walk. This time, however, they went to a park near the neighborhood and continued like this until the day before the college entrance examination.
After walking for a while, Gu Luoqi estimated that it was almost time to go back. "It's late, we should go back."
"Mmm," Qi Sheng replied softly.
But just as he was about to leave, he suddenly moved closer to her.
Upon noticing his approach, Gu Luoqi froze, seemingly forgetting to react.
He gave her a gentle hug, tenderly and without going too far, and said, "Good luck on your college entrance exam."
"Sister," he murmured.
He certainly hoped his sister would have a bright future.
Before she could even react, he had already let go.
But Gu Luoqi could still feel his warm breath on her ear.
Gu Luoqi's face flushed slightly. The park lights were dim, making it difficult to see the other person's face clearly.
As the other person turned around, Gu Luoqi called out to him, "Qi Sheng."
"What's wrong?" Qi Sheng turned around, her voice gentle.
“Actually, I heard it on New Year’s Day,” Gu Luoqi said.
After saying that, she turned around without waiting for the other person's reaction.
Qi Sheng didn't say anything, but just silently followed behind her.
The two remained silent after that and did not mention the matter.
Gu Luoqi didn't know why she brought this up at this time.
There probably wasn't a reason; I just said it because I wanted to.
At that moment, she was willing to disregard the consequences.
The next morning, Aunt Qi made her breakfast early.
After breakfast, Gu Luoqi checked her belongings one last time to make sure she had brought everything she needed.
Mr. Gu nervously escorted her into the examination center. From a distance, Gu Luoqi could see the candidates waiting at the entrance.
It's not time yet, so you can't enter the examination center.
Gu Luoqi took a deep breath and then got out of the car.
Mr. Gu, who was already very nervous, smiled and said, "Go, my darling daughter!"
Mr. Gu stayed until she was allowed to enter the examination center. As he watched her receding figure, he began to take deep breaths.
I kept telling myself to believe in my daughter; she could do it.
"Good luck, host. Now it's your personal battlefield. This is your final test." The system's usually emotionless voice seemed much gentler.
"Okay." She had already entered the examination room.
She took a few more deep breaths and then calmed down.
Then, just like their usual exams, there were no problems.
She was relatively relaxed because the exam in the morning was Chinese; after all, she couldn't do too badly in this subject.
By the time the exam papers were handed out, her attention was already drawn to them, and she began writing furiously.
She did a lot of practice tests, so she had a good grasp of time, but she didn't hand in her paper early.
At this crucial moment, she felt she could still sit still for a few minutes.
She only left the examination room after the bell rang.
Mr. Gu and Aunt Qi were already waiting for her outside the school.
She glanced around and saw that Qi Sheng wasn't there, probably to avoid affecting her.
Or perhaps she's angry because of what happened yesterday.
However, she doesn't have time to investigate the root cause right now.
She walked over with a smile.
She had already said that she didn't need anyone to bring her food, but her father and Aunt Qi just wouldn't agree.
She could only accept the elders' concern with a smile.
The three returned to the hotel. "This was made by Xiaosheng and me. You eat first," Aunt Qi said gently.
"Hmm." Upon hearing this, Gu Luoqi felt a surge of joy.
Mr. Gu and Aunt Qi didn't bother her any further. After she finished eating, she went back to the next room and told her to take advantage of the time to rest and recharge.
In short, the two-day exam made them extremely nervous.
Perhaps because they were already nervous for her, Gu Luoxi wasn't very nervous at all.
On the day the college entrance examination ended, Gu's father came to pick her up with Aunt Qi and Qi Sheng.
Gu Luoxi looked up and saw the boy holding flowers; her heart skipped a beat.
She smiled and stepped forward to hug her father and Aunt Qi in turn.
When she reached Qi Sheng, she paused for a moment and whispered in his ear, "Thank you."
Then, naturally, I accepted the flowers.
In short, she felt that she had accomplished a major life event. After the exam, she even felt empty inside, followed by a deep sense of exhaustion.
She went to bed without eating dinner that afternoon and didn't wake up until noon the next day.
Mr. Gu and Aunt Qi prepared a large table of dishes to celebrate for her.
Unfortunately, Qi Sheng had already returned to school, which left her somewhat disappointed.
That evening, she played a game she hadn't played in a long time, and a strange sense of satisfaction rose within her.
Because she had gotten rid of those troublesome problems, she played freely and spent almost half a month like that.
Then she received an invitation from Xu Cheng, and only now did she realize that Xu Cheng's family actually owned a small estate!
Indeed, people are different.
Cheng Cheng and Li Mingya also received invitations. Xu Cheng's main purpose this time was to invite his close high school classmates to get together, since it would be difficult to get together in the future.
The date was set for two days later.
"System, I don't seem to know what to do." Gu Luoqi played a few more games and then lay down on the bed.
Suddenly losing her biggest goal during this period, Gu Luoqi didn't even know what to do for a while. In short, she felt utterly empty.
"You know I trust you," the system said softly.
That day, she talked a lot with the system, and finally she lay quietly on the bed.
The system assumed she was going to rest, so it didn't say anything more.
Until her very soft yet slightly fragile voice rang out, "System... are you leaving?"
She's not stupid; she's not easily fooled. Considering everything that's happened recently, she can easily see that.
I thought it would at least wait until her college entrance exam scores came out, but I didn't expect it to be in such a hurry.
During this time, she certainly noticed its reluctance to speak.
The system remained silent for a long time before finally replying, "Hmm."
Its mission was complete, and its energy was about to run out. Leaving at this time would undoubtedly be better for both of them.
It had considered her reaction: screaming, being heartbroken, trying to reason with her, and pleading with her to stay.
The only thing I didn't expect was that she would be so calm.
Gu Luoqi's voice was very gentle, "System, thank you."
She was very grateful that it accompanied her through this difficult but meaningful period.
"You're welcome." The system's reply was as always.
"Then, goodbye," she said softly.
"goodbye."
