Chapter 557: Chapter 557 Very Sweet
Whether or not he was bragging, Gu Shiting successfully completed his college entrance exams over the past two days without any issues.
He said he performed well, and he has been in a great mood all along.
The whole Sheng Family accompanied him, gaining experience together with the exam process.
"I wish Tangtang could also take the exam at Seventeenth Middle School next year." said Grandma.
"It might not be that much of a coincidence," Sheng Tang laughed, "No worries, anyway, the schools are all nearby."
After the exams, that afternoon, Sheng Tang went to Gu Shiting’s home with him.
His parents and sister waited until it was over before calling to ask, afraid to disturb him midway, just like Grandma had thought.
"There wasn’t anything particularly difficult; it was all stuff we’ve learned, so there shouldn’t be any major problems," said Gu Shiting, "There aren’t many places where I could lose points. I should be able to get into S University."
Everyone let out a sigh of relief.
In the Gu Family’s villa, it was just the two of them, so Gu Shiting started packing up his things, putting away all his high school textbooks, and reorganizing them.
He cherished his books, carefully organizing them and then moving a large ladder over to place them on the top shelf of his bookcase.
Sheng Tang laughed, "I thought you would sell all these books as waste paper after the exams."
She had done so in her previous life.
After the college entrance exams, she packed up all her books and sold them to the scrap collector at the school gate.
Of course, that was also because she didn’t have a home, and there was nowhere to store so many books. She couldn’t carry them with her—it was too inconvenient to move around.
"Why sell them?" Gu Shiting was puzzled, "These are all the books I’ve used."
Sheng Tang touched her nose and laughed.
Song Chen came back in the evening.
"How did it go?" he asked Gu Shiting, "I heard it went well?"
"Yes."
Gu Shiting always had confidence. If he said it went well, it must have gone very well.
"That’s good," said Song Chen, "I made plans for dinner tonight, so I won’t be able to join you two."
Gu Shiting: "Is my sister back?"
"It’s a business dinner, with the leaders of the education bureau," said Song Chen, "We’ll socialize and gather some information."
Gu Shiting was worried that Gu Shiyan might suddenly come back and interrupt his alone time with Sheng Tang, not about who Song Chen was dining with.
"Okay, you go ahead," Gu Shiting waved his hand.
Once he finished tidying up his study, he turned to Sheng Tang and said, "I’ll make you dinner."
"Aren’t you tired?"
"It’s just an exam, why would I be tired?" Gu Shiting said, "You relax for a bit, I’ll cook."
Sheng Tang responded with an ’okay’.
For dinner, Gu Shiting even made a dessert, adding sesame crisps, and it was especially delicious.
Sheng Tang couldn’t help but praise, "You can even make desserts now, that’s amazing!"
"I have free time now. From now on, I’ll pick you up from school every day and bring you lunch." Gu Shiting said.
Sheng Tang thought for a moment. With only a month left until the final exams, he might as well come.
Otherwise, he would be quite lonely at home.
Besides, everyone at school already knew about their relationship.
Nobody caused trouble, but there was certainly an increase in the number of people who looked at Sheng Tang with respect and admiration.
This wasn’t solely due to Gu Shiting’s influence.
Sheng Tang had first made a name for herself, earning the respect and support of the students. If she had remained inconspicuous as before, her relationship with Gu Shiting becoming known would have surely invited trouble from various people eager to replace her.
So, anyone’s status is largely dependent on their own capabilities.
Support from others can only enhance what you already have.
"Alright," Sheng Tang said, and then added, "This dessert is really delicious."
"Let me try." he said.
Sheng Tang was about to scoop a spoonful for him when he leaned in and kissed her on the lips.
