Ji Chen felt slightly relieved after meeting Yang Hong and helping him with some documents.

Then, under Yang Hong’s incredulous gaze, he left Yang Hong behind. No matter how the other party tried to persuade him to stay, he left early..

What was more important now was to leave the Ji Group.

However, before Ji Chen could find an opportunity, Gu Xiao and Chu An’s college entrance examination results were out.

On the day the school notified them of the results of the college entrance examination, although Gu Xiao and Chu An were quite confident in their respective college entrance examination results, the two of them were still worried before seeing the results.

Well… or rather, Gu Xiao was the only one who could not relax.

This morning, Gu Xiao pulled Chu An out of bed and prepared to check their college entrance examination results.

However, perhaps because there were too many people checking the college entrance examination results that day, Gu Xiao refreshed the page for a long time but could not enter the results page.

After a while, Gu Xiao collapsed on the sofa, put her phone aside, and gave up.

Chu An took Gu Xiao’s phone, glanced at the blank page on the phone, and didn’t concern himself with it either.

“Don’t worry, there will definitely be no problem with our college entrance examination.” He comforted Gu Xiao in a low voice.

Gu Xiao moved her body and finally placed her head on Chu An’s lap.

“I know it’s definitely not a problem, but I still want to know immediately…”

Before Gu Xiao could finish speaking, her phone rang.

Chu An glanced at Gu Xiao’s phone, picked it up, and glanced at it. Then, he handed the phone to the other party.

“It’s Teacher Li.”

When Gu Xiao heard this, she hurriedly sat up straight and answered the call. “Teacher Li, why are you calling at this time?”

“Student Gu Xiao, is Student Chu An with you now?” There was a hint of irrepressible excitement in Teacher Li’s words.

Gu Xiao glanced at Chu An beside her. “Teacher Li, Chu An is beside me now. Are you looking for Chu An?”

“No, no, I’m looking for you two!”

Upon hearing this, Gu Xiao took the phone from her ear and turned on the loudspeaker under Chu An’s puzzled gaze.

“Teacher Li is looking for us,” Gu Xiao said silently to Chu An.

When Chu An saw this, he nodded in understanding.

Before Gu Xiao and Chu An could ask, Teacher Li’s excited voice came from the other end of the phone again.

“Student Gu Xiao! Student Chu An! Your college entrance examination results are out! Student Gu Xiao, your total college entrance examination results this time are 730 points! You’re fifth in our province! Student Chu An scored 736 points this time! He’s the top scorer in our province!”

At the end of the sentence, Teacher Li’s voice even broke from excitement.

Originally, she had hoped that Chu An could bring back the title of top scholar for their school, but she had never dared to hope that it would come true.

It had been four years since their school had a top scorer. This time, the top scorer was in their school. In the next few years, it would be much easier for them to enroll students! The quality of students would also be better!

When she heard Teacher Li’s results, Gu Xiao finally felt that the dust had settled.

She subconsciously looked up at Chu An, who was beside her, and happened to meet Chu An’s gentle eyes.

Gu Xiao smiled at Chu An, but Teacher Li’s excited voice seemed to be a little far away.

After a while, Chu An raised his hand and rubbed Gu Xiao’s head and only then did she come back to her senses.

Gu Xiao thought of how she had just left Teacher Li aside and immediately felt a little guilty. However, when she heard Teacher Li still talking non-stop, she heaved a sigh of relief.

“Someone contacted the school to interview the top scorer of our province’s college entrance examination. 1 wonder what does Chu An think about this?”

“Teacher, there’s no need for an interview. I don’t want to be exposed in front of the public,” Chu An said calmly. There was no trace of happiness in him that a college entrance examination top scholar should have.

Teacher Li wanted to persuade him further, but when she thought of Chu An’s usual personality, she swallowed the words that were about to come out of her mouth.

She did not talk about the interview anymore. Instead, she mentioned something else. “Both your college entrance examination results are very good this time. The school and the province have scholarship prizes for this. You have to come to the school to collect this. I wonder when the two of you are free to come to the school?”

Chu An leaned back and gestured for Gu Xiao to answer this question.

“Teacher Li, after I discuss this with Chu An, we’ll find time to return to the school.”

Hearing this, Teacher Li did not say anything else.

However, in the end, Teacher Li asked for Chu An’s opinion.. “Chu An, do you mind if the school uses your identity as the top scorer of the college entrance examination to promote our school?”
