The bus to his class was already full.
He had no choice but to board the temporarily empty bus.
but.
Soon, he saw a group of people approaching.
It was Xu Yanyan and his brother, as well as Zhao Menghua, Chen Wenwen, and other members of the literary society.
They were all stunned when they saw Gu Hou after getting on the bus.
Zhao Menghua muttered to himself, "Didn't Su Xiaoqiang say she would arrange for familiar people to be in the same car? Why did she bring this butler along?"
In the "Gods and Gods" chapter of Shilan Middle School, Gu Ran is described as Lu Mingfei's tutor and a mysterious figure who drives very aggressively.
Because Gu Ran was very low-key in high school, no one knew much about him.
At this point, everyone quietly found a place to sit.
Chen Wenwen is still immersed in the happiness of being in love.
She suddenly snatched the phone from Zhao Menghua's hand, then took out a Hello Kitty keychain from her small bag and insisted on hanging it on Zhao Menghua's phone.
Zhao Menghua frowned, but did not refuse, though he thought the hanging rope was a bit childish.
Then, Chen Wenwen took out her phone, which had an identical lanyard hanging on it.
She sent Zhao Menghua a text message: "Do you like this lanyard?"
Zhao Menghua thought to himself, "They're sitting so close together and not saying a word, and they still have to send a text message for this one sentence. It's a bit speechless."
His fingers flew across the keyboard as he replied, "I like it."
Upon seeing the message, Chen Wenwen was overjoyed and smiled.
Gu Ran found a single seat and sat down.
Liu Miaomiao then walked onto the train carriage and glanced at him.
Liu Miaomiao was a very polite and well-behaved girl. After exchanging glances with Gu Ran, she nodded slightly in acknowledgment.
She remembered Gu Ran's figure on the basketball court that day.
So she asked softly, "Do you like playing basketball too?"
Gu Ran smiled and shook his head, about to speak.
Suddenly, a beautiful figure walked quickly towards the front door and grabbed Gu Ran's wrist.
"Gu Ran, sit with me!"
Su Xiaoqiang is always quick and decisive in her actions, and she directly announced the goal of this trip through her actions.
Su Xiaoqiang wore light makeup today, which made her mixed-race features appear even more delicate.
She was dressed in a DKNY summer outfit, her eyes brimming with pride, truly deserving of her nickname "Little Fairy".
Gu Ran, who had already taken a seat, was pulled up by her and made to sit in the double seat at the back.
The boys who came up later were all watching where Liu Miaomiao was going to sit.
Liu Miaomiao pursed her lips and sat down in the single seat that Gu Ran had just been sitting in.
Thus, the boys gave up their hopes.
After everyone was seated, the bus started moving.
Su Xiaoqiang's hand was still gripping Gu Ran's wrist.
Chapter 24 Casual Chat on the Train
When Gu Ran smiled and withdrew her hand.
Su Xiaoqiang gave him a resentful look.
Gu Ran gave a wry smile.
That day at the movie theater, he teased her on a whim.
For many days afterward, the two did not meet or communicate.
Gu Ran thought that was the end of it.
I don't know why Su Xiaoqiang would take a liking to me.
It can't be because I'm handsome, can it?
In fact, Su Xiaoqiang's inner thoughts were also very complicated.
That day, Zhao Menghua confessed his feelings to Chen Wenwen.
She felt like she had been dumped.
Well, to be precise, it's about losing the person you had a crush on.
At one point, she felt that her life was shrouded in darkness.
I just wanted to find a place to vent.
Then she ran and ran in a panic, and then she bumped into someone.
A fair-skinned young man, dressed in a well-fitting suit, suddenly appeared in front of her.
He smiled gracefully, then reached out and suddenly lifted her chin, telling her not to cry, and wiped away her tears.
At that time, Su Xiaoqiang felt that every move he made exuded a sense of composure and confidence.
In an instant, her heart brightened again.
At that moment, she forgot about Zhao Menghua and thought to herself that she must have been blind to have liked that kind of person.
Zhao Menghua, in order to please and pursue Chen Wenwen, actually discussed Marguerite Duras.
When Su Xiaoqiang thought about these things, she felt that Zhao Menghua's character was just like the title of Marguerite Duras's first novel.
(Note: Marguerite Duras's first novel was titled "The Shameless Man")
Su Xiaoqiang felt that the person she liked should have a unique personality.
I won't cater to anyone.
He should be a knight, standing by the princess's side, sheltering her from the wind and rain, and wiping away her tears.
But the knight will not abandon his creed.
In her innocent mind, she imagined Gu Ran as that kind of knight.
Su Xiaoqiang nudged Gu Ran's shoulder with her own and asked softly:
"You were at the Kassel College interview that day, right? Their interview questions were really bizarre..."
She planned to find some topics to chat about with Gu Ran.
The college entrance examination had just ended, and the results had not yet been released.
The news that Lu Mingfei and Gu Ran had been admitted to Kassel College was not publicized.
The school staff are not aware of this yet.
Su Xiaoqiang has been staying at home recently, hiring a private tutor to prepare for the college entrance examination.
So she didn't know that Gu Ran wasn't going to school.
It's even more unclear that he didn't take the college entrance exam at all.
"Uh...maybe foreign schools are more open-minded, so their interview questions are more open-minded."
Gu Ran casually replied.
"That's true. That's how you discover the potential of interviewees and recruit outstanding people."
Su Xiaoqiang felt that the school Chu Zihang could attend must not be too bad.
That's what everyone at Shilan Middle School thinks.
"Um……"
Gu Ran responded, then suddenly realized the conversation was going nowhere.
You can't exactly praise yourself for being outstanding, can you?
He wasn't the kind of person who liked Versailles.
Seeing that Gu Ran responded with a sound, Su Xiaoqiang assumed he was unhappy and comforted him:
"Are you upset because you didn't pass the interview at Kassel College? Don't be like that. If you want to study abroad, I can help you. My dad has connections at Stanford..."
Ha, having a mine at home really lets you do whatever you want.
Gu Ran was truly at a loss for words:
"I'm not sad, thank you for your kindness."
Hearing him say thank you made Su Xiaoqiang feel very happy.
She leaned closer and started discussing the college entrance exam questions:
"This year's Chinese reading comprehension questions were so silly. One question asked, 'Hanzi is the local term for husband used by women. Why does my grandmother call me Hanzi?' How did you answer that question?"
"Uh... I forgot."
Gu Ran didn't even take the college entrance exam, so how would she know?
Su Xiaoqiang said, "I see that many teachers' standard answer is: My grandmother earnestly hopes that I will become a responsible and strong person."
She continued, "Later, I checked the source of the article and found that the author's name was Niu Han, and Hanzi was his nickname!"
"This question is ridiculous. If someone answers that it's the author's nickname, the examiner definitely won't give them any points!"
Su Xiaoqiang complained.
Gu Ran thought to herself that these reading comprehension questions were actually a youth version of 'guessing the emperor's intentions,' which would still be useful for her future work.
This is especially true in workplaces where personal relationships play a significant role.
Do more reading comprehension exercises, and at least you'll be able to grasp the key points of what your leader is saying.
