Reborn into the 70: Turning Adversity into Her Dazzling Path-Chapter 595: Getting Better
The exam results were released.
In the previous life, He Yue was the top scorer, but this time there were two top scorers, Gu Lingling and He Yue.
Zhao Xuefei’s results were also very good, almost perfect in math, physics, and chemistry, but his language scores dragged him down, placing him second.
Hao Lianlian ranked fourth.
When everyone heard the news, they were stunned.
They had anticipated their scores after leaving the exam hall but never expected such good results.
With the results out, the next step was to apply for universities, and then they could wait for the admission letters.
As the year-end approached, it was time for celebrations.
This year, they could finally set off fireworks and visit relatives and friends.
After the New Year, the admission letters were gradually sent out.
Gu Lingling had already learned from Mr. Zhou that she, Zhao Xuefei, and Hao Lianlian were all admitted, and naturally, He Yue was no exception, as she had attended Kyoto University in her past life.
Old Sir Gu was regretful about Gu Lingling not applying for his archaeology department, but he supported her decision and praised her greatly from his experienced perspective.
The country had gone through a major disaster and needed talented individuals in all areas.
With future developments aiming internationally, talents like Gu Lingling’s in translation would be greatly needed.
"Congratulations." Gu Juan ran into Gu Lingling while visiting Old Sir Gu one day, and unprecedentedly spoke to her in a non-sarcastic tone.
"Thank you."
Regardless of her true intentions behind the congratulatory note.
In subsequent visits, Gu Juan never inquired Old Sir Gu about the transformer factory, always bringing some food, staying briefly, and then leaving.
Over time, Old Sir Gu became much gentler with her.
Knowing Gu Lingling was admitted to Kyoto University, Grandma Yao began early preparations for her trip to the Capital City.
Gu Lingling returned today to collect some things, planning to take what Mr. Zhou had given her to Kyoto and return them later.
However, she couldn’t openly carry them, so she had to ask Grandma Yao to sew them into the quilt or coat.
Seeing Gu Juan enter Old Sir Gu’s house, Gu Lingling instead greeted Old Sir Gu, took her things, and went to Grandma Yao’s home.
"Grandpa, how are you today?" Gu Juan smiled, placing the items she brought on the table, "Though spring is approaching, there’s still a chill, please keep warm."
These words surprisingly touched Old Sir Gu.
His granddaughter had never cared for him like this before, maybe she truly changed.
After all, she’d been through so much.
"Juanzi," Old Sir Gu said earnestly, "What are your plans for the future? Have you thought about going to your brother’s place?"
To start anew in a different place and environment.
"My sister-in-law is pregnant, my mom’s gone to take care of her." Gu Juan lowered her head, and Old Sir Gu couldn’t see her expression, assuming she was regretting, "I’d only make trouble for them if I went."
"Grandpa, do you not like me coming to see you?" When Gu Juan looked up again, there were tears in her eyes.
"How could that be?" Old Sir Gu replied helplessly, "I’m very happy you come to see me, and I’m gratified you’re getting better."
Getting better?
What does it mean to be better?
The fleeting resentment in Gu Juan’s eyes, was it because she spoke a few words with Gu Lingling today?
"I’ll go see who’s here." A knock on the door sounded, and Gu Juan ran out with her head lowered.
