Chapter 565: Chapter 565 Love Affair
With his top scores in science for the year, Gu Shiting successfully got admitted to the Physics Department at S University.
Sheng Tang’s summer vacation hadn’t ended yet, but Gu Shiting was already starting school.
There was military training at the start of the school year.
Sheng Tang was staying at home and called Jiang Baocu, who she hadn’t contacted all summer, and they arranged to go out for a meal.
Jiang Baocu indeed came.
"You said you got a lot darker, but it doesn’t seem that way." Jiang Baocu scrutinized her, "Just a bit tanned, huh? I thought you turned into charcoal, secretly reveling in that for a long time."
Sheng Tang: "..."
What kind of lousy friend is this?
She brought a gift for Jiang Baocu.
Jiang Baocu was very happy.
They had a meal, then went to see a movie, and in the evening, they went to the nearby square to dance with the grannies, having a lot of fun.
Privately, Jiang Baocu asked her, "So, what do you and Young Master Gu do on your dates every day?"
Sheng Tang hooked Jiang Baocu’s arm, "Why are you so curious all of a sudden? Did you fall in love over the summer?"
Jiang Baocu’s face immediately turned red.
She hadn’t planned on hiding it from Sheng Tang, just didn’t know how to bring up the topic. Otherwise, it would seem like she was showing off or something.
"Who is it?" Sheng Tang pressed.
Jiang Baocu replied, "My aunt’s friend’s son; he’s from Hong Kong, studying as a freshman in Beijing. He came to my house during the summer break, and we naturally got together."
Sheng Tang laughed, "Is he handsome?"
Jiang Baocu immediately pulled out her phone and showed Sheng Tang a picture of the boy.
The boy in the photo was fair-skinned and delicate-looking, wearing glasses, and somewhat shyly looking at the camera.
He resembled Gu Jiahui a bit.
Jiang Baocu’s taste remained consistent; she couldn’t resist boys like Gu Jiahui.
"You just met this summer?"
"No, I met him a few years ago," Jiang Baocu replied. "I was young then and didn’t understand much. Last year after his college entrance exams, he specifically asked me about good universities in S City.
I told him there weren’t any particularly good ones. If it were me taking the college entrance exam in the country, I’d aim for schools in Beijing because it’s more fun there. I’ve lived here too long and really want a change of scenery."
Sheng Tang: "..."
Jiang Baocu: "This year he confessed, and I finally understood what he meant last year. Am I a bit slow?"
Yeah, pretty slow.
"Sheng Tang, I’ve decided not to go abroad anymore. I also want to apply to universities in Beijing," Jiang Baocu said.
As expected, girls this age are easily satisfied with love.
"Would your dad and your aunt agree?"
"My dad doesn’t really care. Does he look like a responsible parent to you? My aunt never really wanted me to go abroad; she’s always been worried about me," Jiang Baocu said.
After meeting Jiang Baocu, Sheng Tang received another call the next day, this time from senior Qin Lin.
"Where have you been running wild all summer? I couldn’t get through to you on the phone," Qin Lin complained.
After going abroad, Sheng Tang got a new phone that Song Chen had prepared for her, and she only gave the new number to her family.
Her own phone had been turned off.
She also hadn’t posted any updates in her social circle.
It wasn’t until yesterday, when she had dinner with Jiang Baocu, that she posted a status update.
"You called me?" Sheng Tang was curious, "Haven’t you graduated? What do you need?"
"Nothing much, just wanted to tell you I’m starting university," Qin Lin said.
"Where?" Sheng Tang asked.
"Right here in this city!" he almost roared. "Didn’t you say you’d make time to play basketball with Zhou Yu this summer? He asked me twice, making it seem like I was using your name to ask him out. Can you be reliable for once?"
Sheng Tang: "..."
She had completely forgotten about it.
