"Qianqian, you should go to First Middle School," Luo Shufan said seriously to Luo Qianqian.
"Why? Xiao Yu is going to Experintal," Luo Qianqian curiously asked her brother, who spoke with such seriousness, "What’s going on? Why do you say that?"
"Fourth Brother suggested it. Besides, although Experintal Junior High does ride on the coattails of Experintal High School and counts as a key junior high, it still falls short of the well-established First Middle School." Luo Shufan looked at his sister very earnestly. He really couldn’t say that soone had threatened to target his sister when she entered junior high. That arrogant fool was none other than Yi Muhuan, who was a grade above him—and had once hurt him and insulted him at the airport. As a brother, he needed to protect his sister. Experintal High School and the Junior High are very close to each other, while First Middle School is far away. Their mother would certainly only consider two options, either to pick her up every day or to board her at school. And ntioning Luo Yanwu was because he had gone to West Point Military Academy and couldn’t be contacted; by the ti his sister found out, she wouldn’t be able to change it.
Luo Qianqian looked at her brother’s face, thinking that even though he was two years older, his ears still turned red whenever he lied. Her brother was already in his third year of junior high and was just a week away from the middle school exams, yet here he was, urging her to change her mind, even though there were still several weeks left to register for junior high.
"What about Xiao Yu?" Luo Qianqian looked at her brother and sighed, resigning herself to agree, since her brother was about to have his middle school exams and she didn’t want to distract him.
"I didn’t ask, but he’s probably still going to Experintal," Luo Shufan said, lowering his head guiltily.
"I’ll ask him, and I’ll listen to you and go to First Middle School. Grandpa Zhang probably won’t be happy, but you’ll have to handle that yourself, because it’s you, not , who’ll have to face Grandpa Zhang every day in class," Luo Qianqian spread her hands and pulled a blank sheet of paper from the table, "If you promise you can make it into Experintal High School, I’ll attend the First Middle School admission test."
Luo Shufan swiftly wrote down the promise, adding that regardless of whether He Wenyu went or not, Luo Qianqian had to go to First Middle School, then he handed the pen to his sister for her to sign.
Feeling resigned and knowing the family was still together even if their schools weren’t, Luo Qianqian signed.
She couldn’t foresee that because of this signature, He Wenyu would be dragged into the whirlpool of his previous life, unable to extricate himself.
"By the way, Grandpa said you staying at ho would disturb , so Fourth Brother is coming to take you to his place for a couple of days tomorrow; I’ll co over after I finish the exams," Luo Shufan carefully put away the promise before speaking.
"What? I didn’t know about that," said Luo Qianqian, startled, but the thought of Grandma’s delicious cooking made her eyes narrow in anticipation.
"Your phone has been off for a long ti...," apparently, Grandpa had said he would get him and his sister new phones after his middle school exams were over. For now, the priority was for him to perform well on his exams.
"I forgot, and no one was looking for ," Luo Qianqian yawned and then said, "Does Mom know?"
"She knows. Mom told you to tone it down and not to annoy people." Rembering what Luo’s Mom said about his sister, Luo Shufan couldn’t help but smile.
"How can it be like this? Rember to tell Xiao Yu about going to First Middle School after your exams; I wonder if the wedding Godmother took Xiao Yu to had good food," Luo Qianqian yawned again and spoke slowly.
"Got it, got it, just go to sleep. You don’t need to pack much; just make sure to bring your wallet and IDs," Luo Shufan said as he shook his head at his sister’s tired look, watched her get into bed, then turned off the light and left her bedroom.
"Got it."
Lying in bed, Luo Qianqian thought about the changes over the past few years. The revolving hotpot places had opened many branches and even started a chain nad ’Luo Shenyao’ and ’Fragrance Cos’, which were becoming more and more famous. Luo’s Mom, happy about how often she had als out and watched movies with a factory manager she frequently bought goods from, had not aged but instead had beco younger-looking, with increasingly rosy skin. And on Luo Qianqian’s advice, she had stopped begrudging the dical checkup fees and went for a full-body checkup every year.
Mother He also made a bunch of friends through purchasing goods, so when one of her friends was getting married, she took He Wenyu along, and her friend planned to take them around and stay for a couple more days. Since her daughter had already graduated, Mother He agreed, and had soone watch over the store.
As an interest class teacher at the Youth Palace, He’s father was earning less money than his wife over the past two years. Annoyed, he quit his job, rented Bai Yixian’s storefront, and opened a barbecue restaurant. Because it was clean and the food tasted good, business was good and life was prosperous.
Luo Qianqian kept her talents hidden except for exams, and lived quite comfortably with Elder Zhang’s increasingly satisfied looks.
Luo Yanran had already beco a household na as an idol, and still enjoyed dealing with people himself tirelessly.
"Aren’t you worried about being discovered?" Looking at Luo Yanran beside her, wearing large sunglasses, a big mask, and a duckbill cap, wouldn’t this make him even more noticeable in the hot season?
"Discovered what? I am your brother after all." Even if Luo Yanran didn’t admit it, Shufan was increasingly resembling him, aside from the shape of their face and nose—it really could fool anyone.
"So, how’s Li Xiancheng?" Luo Qianqian, sitting on the plane as the sun was just rising, was so sleepy that she kept yawning, but still forced herself to stay alert. After all, having a superstar by her side could cause chaos if they were discovered.
"Don’t get started, my dad talks about him in every other sentence, all praises, and it’s giving a headache." Luo Yanran looked out of the window, also feeling sleepy, and took off his glasses to rub his eyes. "Now so many companies want to cooperate with us, and all were refused."
"Hehe, I need to ask my uncle to give a red envelope," bead Luo Qianqian proudly.
"No need for that, my dad and Li Xiancheng have already prepared sothing for you, they absolutely won’t disappoint you."
——
By the ti Shufan arrived, Luo Qianqian was already unknowingly rich and getting richer over ti. Thinking that her uncle and Li Xiancheng took out five percent of the shares made her joyous beyond believe, receiving ten percent of the Xicheng Group for nothing. Her uncle said that if it weren’t for Luo Qianqian’s insistence on introducing him, he wouldn’t have t Li Xiancheng, a student unknown to the industry; Li Xiancheng said that it was Luo Qianqian who gave him hope, a small kindness that should be repaid by a spring-like bounty. He t people he wasn’t qualified to et then, got the investnt, and made it to today. No matter what, Luo Qianqian was his initial beacon of hope.
When the ti to apply was almost up, Shufan took Luo Qianqian back to apply for First Middle School.
The admissions at Experintal Middle School were already over, and He Wenyu had been accepted.
Under He Wenyu’s angry gaze, Luo Qianqian glared at Shufan.
"Shufan apologized repeatedly and treated his two younger sisters to a week’s worth of cake to resolve the matter, but the result could no longer be changed.
The admission notification finally arrived: Shufan went to Experintal High School, Luo Qianqian went to First Middle School, He Wenyu, Jiang An, Jiang Qian, Ye Chen, Zhang Jingjing, and a few other unfamiliar classmates went to Experintal Middle School, Zhang Sheng went to a private school, and the rest were promoted directly to their corresponding junior highs.
Luo Qianqian, all alone, glared at her brother, stubbornly believing that the decision to go to First Middle School regardless of whether He Wenyu went or not was preditated. But the result could no longer be changed.
