"No, I was just thinking about what I plan to do after the college entrance exam."
Gu Chen continued massaging her without stopping. "It mainly depends on what you want to do. Anyway, I will support you. Don't put too much pressure on yourself. If you can pass the exam, go to university. If you can't, then work if you want to, or stay at home if you don't want to."
"I know, my back is a little sore too, can you rub it for me?" Lin Yuxi turned over, her back to him.
Gu Chen turned off the light, covered her with the blanket, and massaged her waist with his rough hands. "How are you? Are you feeling any better?"
"I feel a little better. It's ten o'clock. Let's go to sleep." Lin Yuxi felt her back was a little better, so she turned over, snuggled into his arms, and cuddled his eight-pack abs to sleep.
She took a short leave of absence, and for this month, she doesn't have to go to work at the factory.
He Cuiping, worried that she might not have any books to read, went around borrowing books for her.
"The college entrance exam is a big deal, so don't neglect it. Anyway, my child is all grown up now, and I can help you take care of the child during the day with Aunt Jiang. Don't get distracted by the child's situation. Focus on your studies, and you'll definitely pass!"
Although He Cuiping only knew a few characters, she knew how important the college entrance examination was. In the past, it was all about recommendations from the masses, but now it's all about merit-based admission.
"Take all these practice papers. Do as many as you can to gain some experience. What if you guess the right questions?"
Those who didn't get into university in the past can try again.
Time passed quietly, minute by minute.
Beijing has experienced several snowfalls, and finally, the college entrance examination has begun.
Lin Yuxi's household registration followed Gu Chen's, but she also came from the family compound. The candidates from the family compound were recruited to take the exam at the same test center.
In the morning, Gu Chen even got up himself to cook two eggs and a bowl of sweet soup for Lin Yuxi.
"Eggs are plentiful, but you're not allowed to put anything in your bag. Drink some sugar water so you won't get hungry later. Have a steamed bun too, eat as much as you can. The exam is long, and I got up early this morning. There was a thick snowfall outside. I need to bring my scarf, pen, and ID. I can't forget anything."
Gu Chen wrapped a red scarf around Lin Yuxi's neck. He had specially bought it from the department store; red is a festive color.
Today, the military provided transportation, which can be considered a privilege for military families.
"Comrades taking the college entrance examination, make sure you get on the right bus. The journey is long, it's snowing outside, the roads are difficult to travel, and we're worried about traffic jams, so we have to get there early today and not let any of you be late."
"Comrades, please make sure you check your identification documents carefully and don't forget them."
A man dressed in military green was holding a large megaphone.
Gu Chen saw Lin Yuxi into the car and waved by the window, saying, "Don't put too much pressure on yourself. Just do your best, okay?"
Lin Yuxi nodded. "Let's go back quickly, it's cold outside."
After she finished speaking, a layer of fog formed on the glass.
To ensure that the residents of the family compound could take the college entrance examination smoothly, the car set off promptly at six o'clock in the morning. It would take an hour to drive from the examination site, and we aimed to arrive before eight o'clock.
The roads were slippery from the snow, and I was also worried about traffic jams, so I didn't dare to delay.
Inside the car, there were both men and women, and many of them became somewhat nervous, with no intention of talking at all.
Lin Yuxi was alright. Seeing Gu Chen waving behind the car, she wiped the condensation off the car window and waved back to him.
"Go back quickly, don't see me off, I'll be back after the exam."
