When Yu Mufeng heard this, the corners of his mouth twitched. His father, the head of the neurological department of the medical organization, and a veteran, all had to call this little Grandmaster “Master.”
This Grandmaster’s relatives were rather stupid for not knowing how to curry favor with her.
Gu Si rolled his eyes and continued, “Is there really a need for this?”
His phone rang for a while and stopped. After a few seconds, it began vibrating again. Gu Si ignored it and threw his phone on the desk.
I have to take the university entrance exams, ain’t nobody got time for this.
Gu Mang stayed at the medical research lab for ten days.
The weather was beginning to turn warm.
Almost all major news, hot topics and searches were stating: 3 Days to the University Entrance Exams.
…
The medical research lab.
Gu Mang wore a white robe which was fully unbuttoned. She stood by the window at the end of the corridor holding a crystal cup filled with honey water by the ledge. Her pale beautiful fingers held a cigarette and in her other hand she held a mobile phone. She was busy replying to messages.
The Year Threes of Ming City High School had already started their exam break. They were all waiting for the day of the university entrance exams.
Gu Si had returned to Ming City as well. He stayed with Meng Jinyang at the Seal Palace condominium.
In Gu Mang’s apartment.
Lu Yang and Shen Huan would come over to study with Meng Jinyang as well. Being around Gu Si made all of them question their own existence multiple times, everyday. Gu Mang had a few words with Meng Jinyang before she went to do some revision.
She was fighting her final lap.
Gu Mang left the chat room with Meng Jinyang and replied to Lu Chengzhou’s messages. Then, she put her phone away and turned to walk to the research lab.
…
In the research lab.
A man in his twenties was conducting some research.
When he saw Gu Mang return, he walked over with a small test test tube and asked, “Boss, why don’t you take the university entrance exam?”
The man was a direct disciple of Yu Zhongjing. He knew that Gu Mang was Yu Zhongjing’s mentor and that she was the true boss behind the institute.
Gu Mang glanced at the chemical reaction and said without any expression on her face, “I’m barred from taking the university entrance exams.”
“Huh?” The man looked confused.
“I achieved a perfect score twice on the national joint exams.” Gu Mang added a drop of reagent into it with a plastic-tip dropper and said with a calm tone, “They won’t let me take anymore exams.”
The man was speechless.
A woman who happened to walk into the laboratory at that moment with the equipment Gu Mang needed said, “Hey, don’t you know that Boss got a perfect score on the national joint exams when she was seven as well as during this year’s exams?”
There were many geniuses at the institute. Some people graduated from college at the age of fourteen and some were admitted into the institute for training at the age of ten because of their superb talents.
All of them were prideful.
But they seldom kept themselves updated about news online. They would only use their phones during mealtime. Even then, they usually looked at medical literature and report results.
They seldom cared about gossip.
When the man heard this, he widened his mouth and said in disbelief, “Seven?!”
The lady passed the equipment to Gu Mang and looked at the man. Then, she said earnestly, “Handsome, the 5G network connection in our lab is very strong. When you have nothing to do, use it. 2G is obsolete.”
The man was speechless.
…
7th June, the day of the university entrance exams.
The brilliant sun shone brightly, covering the city in a glimmering shine. The entire city seemed to have been set to ‘silent’ mode. Everyone was serving the students who were taking the university entrance exams.
Police officers maintaining order were seen on the roads and at school gates.
Many youths entered the exam hall. Some were nervous while some were excited.
Gu Si’s exam venue happened to be at Ming City High School.
Gu Si handed the admission pass to the teacher and the two invigilators were in shock. They stared at Gu Si, who was not even 8 years old yet, dumbfounded.
“Teacher?”
Gu Si called out to invigilator in confusion before the man regained his senses and swept the metal detector around his body with a dumb expression.
