Chapter 544: Chapter 544: Cute Childhood Sweetheart VS Gorgeous New Love (34)

Junior year ended, ushering in the intense senior year.

Every day was incredibly busy with various exams, test papers, and homework.

The walk home with Lu Yu became the most relaxing moment for Gu Shengyin.

Their behavior wasn’t particularly secretive, and everyone noticed the closeness between them.

But perhaps because they were so candid, or maybe it was the enviable warmth of their daily routine, no one felt there was anything amiss with them being together.

June 7th and 8th.

Exiting the examination hall, Gu Shengyin looked up at the dizzying white brightness of the daylight, wiped off some sweat, walked out of the school and immediately noticed Father Chang and Mother Chang waiting for her early.

Mother Chang handed her daughter the prepared mung bean soup and said with concern, "You must be exhausted," not mentioning a single thing about the exams.

Drinking the sweet mung bean soup, Shengyin let out a satisfied sigh, "It’s okay."

Her words were sincere; she didn’t feel the anxiety and worry like a typical examinee would.

She had a good feeling about her own results this time.

Nevertheless, after the exams were over, Gu Shengyin still went home and slept under the covers for two days.

What followed were various classmate gatherings, besties’ parties, and teacher appreciation banquets.

There were also confessions.

Even Gu Shengyin received two confessions from male classmates, which didn’t require a response.

These prime-of-youth students seemed eager to make up for all the regrets of their high school years in these brief ten-plus days.

When everything calmed down, Gu Shengyin realized that she and Lu Yu hadn’t seen each other for over ten days.

One day at dinner, Mother Chang suddenly spoke up.

"Xuanxuan, now that the college entrance exams are over, when will you bring that boy named Lu Yu to let us meet him?"

Gu Shengyin looked at her dad and mom, understanding that they’d actually known about her and Lu Yu for a long time.

Aside from her and Lu Yu, everyone else considered them a couple.

Who knew that in fact, between these two, not even a confession had ever taken place?

But then again, who decided that one must say those three words to be considered lovers?

"Um... we’ll see," Shengyin vaguely answered.

Mother Chang looked at her daughter and felt a deep sense of relief.

Back then, when Xuanxuan didn’t want her to accompany her to school, how could she be at ease? She’d secretly followed her many times, fearing she’d encounter something bad.

That’s when she noticed Lu Yu, the boy that all mothers in Lincheng City, including herself, liked a lot.

She watched him accompany Xuanxuan to school, their demeanor close.

And this escorting went on from freshman year to senior year.

Grandchildren have their own blessings; Mother Chang had come to terms with it. Lu Yu seemed like a fine young man; she no longer needed to worry over Xuanxuan unnecessarily.

In the evening, Gu Shengyin sent a message to Lu Yu.

"Are you there? If you’re free tomorrow, let’s have a meal together."

The reply came back quickly: "Sure, the time and the place?"

After thinking for a while, Shengyin set the location.

"Good night."

She typed these two words.

Lu Yu’s response was still very prompt: "Good night."

An involuntary smile appeared on Gu Shengyin’s lips as she turned off her phone and sank into a deep, sweet sleep.
