The two chatted animatedly, leaving Shu Zhendong behind.
Shu Zhendong wasn't in a hurry; he smiled, sipped his tea, and listened to their conversation.
"Really? You got into Kyoto Medical University? That's wonderful! Oh my, Xiaoxiao, how are you so smart? You're much smarter than your brother Bowen." Xu Xiuyun couldn't hide her joy when she heard Su Xiao say that she had been admitted to Kyoto Medical University.
Upon hearing this, Shu Zhendong raised an eyebrow and nodded in satisfaction. He had always treated Su Xiao as his own nephew, and as a parent, he was naturally happy that the child was doing well.
"No, I was just lucky. I happened to know all the questions on the test," Su Xiao said modestly.
However, if other test takers heard this, they would probably call her a Versailles. Fortunately, Shu Zhendong and Xu Xiuyun were not test takers, so they just thought she was being modest.
In fact, Su Xiao was truly humble.
"By the way, where's Brother Bowen?" Su Xiao felt a little embarrassed by their stares and quickly changed the subject.
Xu Xiuyun thought of her son, feeling both proud and resentful, "He got into university too. He said he wanted to check out the school environment in advance, so he went out early this morning and hasn't come back yet."
Su Xiao was somewhat surprised to hear that Shu Bowen had also passed the exam, because in the original book, Shu Bowen did not take the college entrance examination.
Although she had doubts, Su Xiao did not show them and directly congratulated Xu Xiuyun.
"That's great, congratulations Aunt Xu! Which university did Bowen get into?"
"Hey, why congratulate me? It's his own achievement. He got into Nancheng University to study economics, which is right near our home, so it's very convenient." Xu Xiuyun was very satisfied. She only had one son, and she hoped he could be close to her and not live too far away.
"Yeah, that's great. Nancheng University is a prestigious school; many people want to get in but can't. Brother Bowen is really amazing."
"Hehe, don't praise him like that in front of him, or he'll get so arrogant he'll be strutting around like a whirlwind."
The house was bustling with laughter and conversation. Shu Bowen pushed open the door and was greeted by this scene, feeling as if he'd entered the wrong house. Was that his father and mother's laughter?
"Bowen, you're back! Come here quickly, your little sister is here." Xu Xiuyun waved to her son as soon as she saw him.
"Brother Bowen," Su Xiao stood up and greeted him.
"Hey, Xiaoxiao. You passed the exam?" Shu Bowen was overjoyed to see Su Xiao. He had sent her several study materials as soon as he received the news of the college entrance exam.
"Yeah, I passed the exam. Bowen, why didn't you tell me you passed too?"
Upon hearing her question, Shu Bowen laughed heartily and said, "I just took the test casually, who knew I would pass, haha."
Su Xiao was speechless. So this was the real Versailles after all.
Upon learning that Su Xiao had been admitted to a school in Kyoto, Shu Bowen felt a little regretful, saying that he should have applied to a school in Kyoto as well, which earned him a big eye roll from Xu Xiuyun.
Su Xiao had dinner at the Shu family's house and then said goodbye to them.
When Shu Zhendong and Xu Xiuyun learned that she would be leaving for Kyoto in a few days, they each wrote a letter for her to take to the Shu and Xu families in Kyoto.
Su Xiao felt a warmth in her heart. She knew that the two people did this on purpose, just to give her more protection when she arrived in Kyoto.
Su Xiao accepted the offer solemnly and promised to visit as instructed.
After staying in Nancheng for three days, Su Xiao and Huang Feiyan packed their bags again and set off for Kyoto to explore their unknown path. Presumably, the scenery along the way would be beautiful.
