Butterfly Effect
At the start of August, Gu Youli received a letter of acceptance from Jingcheng University.
Gu Liangwei was even happier than her when they received the intimation. With a happy heart, he started making preparations to go for the appreciation banquet [1. A Chinese tradition for graduates to thank their teachers].
Yang Mengshan was not at home, currently. A few days ago, she had told Gu Liangwei that she was going to get some things settled with Gu Huijun.
She had not returned home after she left and only called Gu Liangwei a couple of times. She did not e back even during the appreciation banquet.
On the 30th of August, Gu Youli was preparing to go to Jingcheng University but Yang Mengshan was still not back.
Gu Youli did not know what Yang Mengshan was up to. She had already told Gu Liangwei that she was not going to attend any other school except Jingcheng University. Right now, she was waiting for Jingcheng University’s reply to her appeal.
Philosophy had always been an unpopular course and basically no one would want to take it up. However, because of the country’s regulations, Jingcheng University had to offer this stream. Otherwise, the university wouldn’t have set it up.
If Yang Mengshan managed to get through the right connections, she might be able to appeal successfully.
Gu Youli knew that Yang Mengshan could have gone to any other place except Jingcheng University. The reason she was so insistent on the same university was that she had decided to pit herself against Gu Youli.
What a joke!
It was technically autumn in August but the sun was still very harsh and bright, like a hot ball of fire, making it unbearable.
Gu Youli alighted from the bus and carried her luggage towards Jingcheng University under the hot sun.
The entrance of Jingcheng University was bustling with people. Both students and parents were milling around.
Gu Liangwei had wanted to acpany Gu Youli but he received a last-minute call from a client to make a delivery. Under such circumstances, he could only let Gu Youli go alone.
Gu Youli, who was dripping with perspiration, threw her luggage on the floor and panted, standing outside the university gates.
Gosh, why did the bus have to stop so far away from the school? The walk had almost killed her.
She took out a bottle of mineral water from her bag and gulped down half of it.
She exhaled with relief and smiled. She had made it. However, her face shrunk suddenly.
An old friend appeared in front of her!
He was a handsome and dashing young man with prominent features and a tall build. He was wearing a white shirt and casual pants, which made him look refined.
However, who would have thought that behind Zhao Mingcheng’s gentle and elegant looks, an evil and cruel soul resided?
Gu Youli lowered her gaze to hide the chill in her eyes.
Zhao Mingcheng, how are you?
Since she was given the chance to relive her life, how could she not make Zhao Mingcheng pay her back for what he had done?
Zhao Mingcheng, who was just a short distance away, could feel the gaze that sent a shiver down his spine.
For no reason, he shuddered under the glaring hot sun and subconsciously turned his head to look in the direction of Gu Youli.
However, their eyes did not meet because a young lady in a t-shirt and shorts was blocking the view.
When she smiled, her eyes formed two crescents and her charming dimples showed. She looked at Gu Youli and asked her politely, “May I know if you’re Jingcheng University’s freshman?”
Gu Youli looked up and was taken aback.
Isn’t this person Chu Qing? So she also attended Jingcheng University?
Gosh! Was this the butterfly effect of changing her past?
Not only did she meet Zhao Mingcheng much in advance, she actually got to meet Chu Qing at the age of 18.
What about Hua Miaomiao then? Would she be meeting him soon as well?
“Hello, I am a freshman at Jingcheng University. My name is Gu Youli.” Gu Youli shook herself out of the thoughts and replied with a smile.
