Chapter 119



Su Yu performed well in both of the morning exams. She had never had much trouble with questions that mainly relied on memorization.

When the bell rang to signal the end of the exam, she finally relaxed completely.

It's finally over. I'll never have to study again. I'll never have to endure the extraordinary torment of the college entrance exam again.

Su Yu handed in her paper with satisfaction, then packed her things and left the examination room.

Along the way, seeing the expressions of these young students—some frustrated, some relieved, and some relaxed—Su Yu felt for a moment as if she had returned to the age of eighteen, back to the time when she took the college entrance examination for the first time.

At that time, among the many candidates who were escorted by their parents, she went to take the college entrance examination all by herself, which made many students admire her.

What goes around comes around. While many candidates were taking the exam alone, she actually had someone picking her up and accompanying her... Watching the person accompanying her at the school gate secretly smoothing their hair, she smiled and breathed a sigh of relief.

When Secretary Song saw her come out, he stood up straight nervously.

"Comrade Su, how did the exam go?"

Su Yu said with a straight face, "Didn't you not want me to do it before?"

"I was worried that you would be affected before..." Secretary Song looked at him nervously. He hadn't forgotten that Comrade Su had said that if you didn't do well on the exam, he would go back on his word.

He asked cautiously, "So, how did it go?"

"Hmm... barely passable."

Su Yu walked towards the main road with her bag on her back, her head down, looking very unhappy.

Secretary Song quickly pushed the cart to catch up. What does this mean? Did he not do well on the test?

"Actually... it doesn't matter, there will be other opportunities in the future. We can take the test again slowly."

"I'm already so old, what if I keep failing the exam?" Su Yu looked at him worriedly. "If I don't pass this year, I'll waste another year, and it will be five years before I graduate from university."

"Five years is five years. A lifetime is long. What's five years?"

"What if you still fail the exam?"

"..." Secretary Song choked for a moment, "Then let's take it slowly? You're so smart, you'll definitely pass after taking the test a few more times and gaining experience."

Su Yu gripped her wrist. "Then what are you going to do?"

"I..." Secretary Song said, "I'll just do what I'm supposed to do."

"Oh dear, aren't you worried that if I keep failing the exam, it will hold you back in the future? You're already so old, what if you want to get married later? Secretary Song, to be honest with you, my dream is to go to university, and I won't give up on this dream because of anything else."

Secretary Song blushed and said, "Actually, it's nothing. Let's just date for a while... cough cough, I mean, we can date for a few more years. Actually, my dad was almost forty when he got married. He wasn't in a hurry, was he? We're busy building up our country, and you're studying for the rise of China. It's an honor for us."

"Pfft—" Su Yu couldn't help but laugh. She walked to Secretary Song's car, tiptoed, and sat down. "Let's go eat. Aren't we going to see a movie later?"

Women change so quickly.

Caught off guard, Secretary Song dazedly got on her bike and started pedaling. "What do you want to eat?"

"Eat braised fish and white flour dumplings."

Su Yu let out a sound. Then she reached out and hooked her arm around his waist.

Secretary Song trembled with excitement.

"What are you shaking for? Hurry up, I'm hungry," Su Yu demanded matter-of-factly. Being her boyfriend wasn't so easy. She wasn't some virtuous wife and loving mother who would do whatever she wanted.

"Okay." Secretary Song swallowed hard, her voice trembling.

Su Yu smiled and subtly pinched his waist. Hmm, not badly muscular.

Secretary Song's face and neck were burning red.

This is a little different from what he expected. He was planning to secretly touch Comrade Su's hand while watching the movie later.

We've fallen far behind again.

The two of them made a point of dining at the Oriental Hotel. They ordered white flour dumplings, braised fish, and a plate of stir-fried vegetables.

Secretary Zhu quickly received the news and rushed over from her office.

He hadn't been in contact with Secretary Song for a long time, only getting bits and pieces of information from his sister.

He knew that Secretary Su was already Secretary Hao's temporary secretary. So when he learned that the two of them had arrived together, he quickly ran over.

"Secretary Song, Secretary Su, why didn't you call before you came? I could have made some preparations and had dinner with you."

Secretary Song: "..."

I just don't want to be disturbed!

Su Yu kicked his leg under the table, and only then did he give Secretary Zhu a smile, "Zhu, you go ahead and do your work, I'll just have dinner with Secretary Su."

"That won't do. How about this, I'll treat you to dinner today. Let's eat together," Secretary Zhu said enthusiastically.

"I don't care!" Secretary Song took a breath. "No need, Secretary Su and I have some things to discuss."

Secretary Zhu became even more curious. "What are you talking about? Is there any news lately? If so, you should tell us."

Su Yu ate the dumpling in her mouth and said with a smile, "Let's talk about dating."

Secretary Zhu: "..."

Secretary Song blushed, trying her best to appear calm, "Exactly, you're a married person, yet you're interested in other people dating?"

Secretary Zhu stood up awkwardly, feeling that he had gotten off to a bad start. No wonder Secretary Song kept trying to get rid of him.

This is embarrassing.

He laughed and said, "Congratulations, congratulations! I didn't even hear the news."

Secretary Song instructed, "Don't go anywhere, we're all working inside."
