After lunch, Gu Jiuci relaxed on the pink sofa, as usual, holding on to her Sponge Bob. Xiang Heng, Ye Kan, and the others came in to discuss business matters with the devil.Everyone was used to Gu Jiuci being there, so there was nothing they had to avoid discussing. Still, Ye Kan would occasionally look over at the Sponge Bob plush doll in Gu Jiuci's arms and occasionally let out a fierce look.Previously, when Gu Jiuci did not often come to the office, Ye Kan would usually take up the space on the pink sofa. For extra comfort, he had specially bought two extra plushies. He never thought that this dumb girl would take his spot!Gu Jiuci was unsure why, but while Zhan Ying was reporting to the devil, with great pain, she gave up her treasured plushie in her hands to Ye Kan.Ye Kan's eyes grew bigger momentarily. He then took the plushie awkwardly and held it in his arms. He looked the other way pretending as though nothing had happened as his ears turned red."Since you returned
"Just this time."Xiang Heng was smoothing things over when he heard the man speak coolly. Everyone was shocked into silence.The three brothers Zhan Ying, Ye Kan, and Xiang Heng were all dumbfounded.The boss actually agreed!Ye Kan stared blankly and sighed."Shujing actually has a lot of the face! Boss, you're playing favorites!"On the sofa, Gu Jiuci squeezed her phone subconsciously. Her heart was beating loudly. She felt uncomfortable.The ugly devil, the evil devil. He actually feels something special about Lin Shujing."Xiang Heng, go and arrange it.""No problem. I'll call Shujing and tell her the good news."Xiang Heng was thrilled, while Gu Jiuci was depressed. She did not even want to continue playing games.Conveniently, Tang Yu sent her a message saying the audience rating for "Our Best Time" broke two percent. He wanted her to send some selfies for advertisements.She stretched out her hand and pulled the curtain closed, took some selfies, and uploaded them t
Gu Jiuci stared at her phone for a moment. In her previous life, she had not taken the National College Entrance Exam. She naturally did not pay attention to the grades.At the moment, she realized that all the top searches on Weibo were about the Entrance Exam. The entrance grade levels for various places were all on the top search rankings.The whole country was concerned about the students' grades. The Entrance Exam's top scholar rankings from every area were also appearing.Now that she understood what was going on, Gu Jiuci opened up her class group chat. She now saw that the class teacher had notified everyone early that morning, telling the students to check their grades at three o'clock.Minutes before, the class teacher had also posted the minimum score for this year's National College Entrance Exam.Class Teacher: "These are the minimum scores for bachelor's degrees in the imperial capital: liberal arts, 480; science, 490. For emphasized bachelor's degrees: liberal arts,
Gu Jiuci had plenty of confidence in her IQ, but she doubted she was the only genius.Only the devil had more confidence in her than she did."Even if we check it again, it will be the same."The corner of the man's mouth raised slightly as he said in a happy tone, "Notify everyone, work is done for the day.""Ah? Why?"As his assistant, Zhan Ying raised his head in shock."You idiot! We have to celebrate the young Huo Family mistress becoming the top science scholar in the imperial capital!"Ye Kan's first reaction was to ridicule Zhan Ying."Gu Jiuci, you've finally given our big brother some face!""Humph! I've always been great. You're the one that's been showing bias!"Once the grades came out, Gu Jiuci finally let go of her anxiety. She quickly told her family the good news. She did not realize that Old Gu already knew.Lao Gu: "Come home quickly. The imperial capital education channel has come to our house. They say they want to interview you."Big Brother: "The scho
Xu Yun'er: "Ci, You're too amazing! Congrats! Btw, since you've tested so well, Uncle will definitely want to throw you a banquet, right? It will be at the Gu residence, won't it?"Gu Jiuci scanned over this message with disdain. She imagined that when Xu Yun'er sent this message, she must have had a toothy grin on her face.She did not respond, pretending as if she had not seen it.As for the banquet, she did not want to expose herself in such a high profile way. Moreover, she would certainly not give Xu Yun'er the opportunity to see the devil!Gu Jiuci closed the other notifications. In her family group, she messaged Old Gu saying she wanted to be low key. She did not want to do any interviews, and she did not want to have a banquet.Although Old Gu thought it was a bit sad, he agreed to her demands.Big Brother: "Then let's send red envelopes to all the Gu Group workers."Second Brother: "Ci, then why don't I give you a sports car. You'll definitely need one at college!"Old
Huo Mingche turned his head around all of a sudden. He had not heard the sound of the sizzling oil."I said, I'm happy."Gu Jiuci smiled at Huo Mingche and spoke quietly.Now Huo Mingche understood.The man smiled in his mind. His deep and mysterious eyes were as splendid as the milky way. He only ever looked at her with these eyes.In this smoke-filled kitchen, Gu Jiuci was looking at a unique scene, like spring in full bloom.At the moment, her heart started racing, each beat louder than the first. Something had sprouted in her mind, and now it was growing at a crazy speedNot many days after the National College Entrance Exam, minimum grades had been published. The Shangjing Film Academy publicly announced the students that had been accepted. Gu Jiuci's name was at the top of the list in the writing and directing major. Her student number began with 0001.How could Tang Yu have missed such a great marketing opportunity? He had immediately publicized the news in various social
Su Furong looked down at the fragments of her phone and her expression changed. She bypassed the trash on the floor, placed the milk on the bedside table, and then sat down on a stool."Today is the day when you won the Best Actor. I called a few younger sisters to celebrate for you. Why are you angry for no reason?""How alright? Ha..."Xu Yun'er was furious when she saw her mother. Her expression turned cold as she mocked her mother."The whole internet is caring about Gu Jiuci's first place, and even my fans are all talking about her! She took first place, and the Gu family wants to celebrate the whole world. If I take first place, I just want to drink a few cups of tea with your little sister. Is it a good thing?"Su Furong had a headache after hearing this. "Yun'er, you can't always compare with Gu Jiuci. Gu Jiuci is..."Unexpectedly, Su Furong's words irritated Xu Yun'er even more. She picked up the milk on the table and threw it on the ground heavily."Why can't I compare
Su Furong looked at her daughter's haggard face and secretly made up her mind."Yun'er, don't worry. Sooner or later, the entire Gu family will be yours! At worst, we'll do it again three years ago!""Will it work this time?"Xu Yun'er asked a little apprehensively."Gu Qingyuan's health has been deteriorating day by day. He is much weaker than Su Yunchao."Once she mentioned three years ago, the same viciousness flashed in the eyes of the mother and daughter pair...Not long after the acceptance list was announced on the screen, the letter of acceptance was announced.Gu's Garden of the Tomb.The summer breeze blew. Gu Jiuci knelt in front of Su Yunchao’s grave and did not speak for a long time.When Old Gu buried by her mother, he personally planted two cypresses. After three years, the pines and cypresses had been covered like a canopy, like an umbrella, shielding Gu Jiuci from the scorching sun.Perhaps, the god's mother had been taking care of her from the sky."Mom, I
