The next day, early morning.

“Buzz, buzz, buzz!”

Zhou Chao groggily fumbled around under the blanket for a while before finally finding his vibrating phone.

“Hello,” a lazy voice ca through the phone.

Listening to the voice on the other end, Guo Yan checked the already risen sun, glanced at the ti on her phone, and saw that it was already past 9 o’clock.

She took a deep breath and then spoke slowly, “Boss, it’s Gu Yan. I’m already at the Hilton Hotel entrance!”

Oh, co to the Presidential Suite on the 10th floor. And buy so breakfast. Make sure to buy more!”

Before Gu Yan could respond, the call was abruptly disconnected!

Staring at the now-hung-up phone, Gu Yan looked puzzled for a while before snapping out of it.

Without overthinking, she simply glanced around to find a nearby place to buy breakfast and made her way there.

After buying a big bag of food, she made her way up to the specified floor as instructed by Zhou Chao.

“Knock, knock, knock!”

“Knock, knock, knock!”

“Knock, knock, knock!”

Gu Yan kept pounding the door, but there was no response from inside.

“Is our boss a pig? How can he sleep so soundly? I’ve been knocking on the door for ages, and he can’t even hear it!”

Just as Gu Yan was quietly grumbling, she noticed a figure approaching and quickly turned around.

“Phew, it’s you. You almost scared to death!” Gu Yan patted her chest, which was on the verge of taking flight.

“Boss, is he still not awake?” The person who had arrived was Lin Wu.

“I don’t know. I’ve been knocking on the door for several minutes, and there’s been no response. Maybe we should call him?”

Before she could finish her sentence, the door was opened, revealing Zhou Chao in a bathrobe, his hair still wet, and he was occasionally patting it with a towel.

“Co in!

Guo Yan entered with the bag of breakfast, and Zhou Chao returned to his room.

After a while, he changed into fresh clothes and ca out.

“Lin Wu, go wake Xiao Yan up. The sun’s been out for a while, and she’s still sleeping!” Zhou Chao said while opening the breakfast Guo Yan had bought.

“Boss, did you call over today for sothing important?”

“Let’s sit down and have a bite to eat together. I assu you haven’t eaten yet. Sit down, eat, and we can talk as we go.”

Gu Yan hesitated for a mont but eventually took a seat, picking up so breakfast, and starting to eat.

After Zhou Chao finished his bun and wiped his mouth, he said, “I’m planning to arrange for all of you to go to Modu.”

“Boss, are you saying we should move the studio to Modu?”

“Yes, that’s right. I’ll take care of the studio’s office space, and of course, your accommodations will be arranged by the company. You don’t need to worry about that.”

Upon hearing this, Gu Yan’s face displayed a hint of inner conflict. She hesitated for a mont, uncertain whether she should speak up.

“If you have any concerns, just go ahead and say them. There’s no need to be so hesitant,” Zhou Chao noticed that Gu Yan seed to have so reservations.

“Boss, I hope you won’t be upset when I say this.”

Go ahead, there’s no need to get upset about anything,” Zhou Chao replied with a calm smile.

Gu Yan took a deep breath and said, “Boss, 1 hope you won’t be angry, but even though you’ve arranged our accommodations in Modu, the cost of living there is quite high. Our monthly salaries aren’t that high, and if we start spending on costics and other things, we might not have much left by the end of the month. In Jinling, we have our own hos, and apart from eating out for lunch, we handle everything else at ho, so…”

“Hahaha, 1 thought it was sothing big! These are just minor issues. The company has a cafeteria, so you won’t have to spend money on als. You can have free breakfast, lunch, and dinner. And your salaries will definitely increase. There will be soone specifically handling that!”

“Really?!” Gu Yan was sowhat surprised and stood up.

“Absolutely. Besides, when you go to Modu, there might be other tasks as well. Rember that plagiarism case I ntioned earlier? We might need your help with that in the future, so be prepared to stand your ground!” Zhou Chao didn’t go into detail but hinted at it.

“Don’t worry, boss, we’ll do our best!” Gu Yan brushed away her previous concerns and smiled.

Good!” Zhou Chao nodded lightly.

When Guo Yan finished getting ready and ca out of her room, the three of them had already finished their breakfast. Her portion was still on the table, and when she saw this, Guo Yan gave an embarrassed smile. She picked up the remaining breakfast and started eating.

After Guo Yan had eaten most of her breakfast, Zhou Chao said, “Let’s pack up and head back to Modu!”

“Boss, I’ll head back first then!” Gu Yan quickly stood up.

“What? Why are you going back? You’re coming with us to the high-speed rail station!”

“I’m going back to Modu with you, boss?” Gu Yan was a bit surprised; she hadn’t even prepared her clothing.

No, it’s not that. You’ll find out soon enough!” Zhou Chao teased.

“Oh!”

Neither Zhou Chao nor Lin Wu had much to pack, so it was only Guo Yan who needed to organize her luggage.

“Bro, I’m ready!” Guo Yan walked out with her suitcase, and Lin Wu hurriedly took it from her.

The four of them left the hotel and got into the Rolls-Royce that was parked in the parking lot.

“Boss, is this a new car you bought? You didn’t just buy a car specifically for your visit to Jinling, did you?” Gu Yan, who was sitting in the passenger seat, looked at the temporary license plate in surprise and asked.

“Well, any problem with that?”

Zhou Chao’s words left Gu Yan speechless, and she silently thought to herself, “Rich people can just spend thoughtlessly!”

“No problem!”

The car soon arrived at the entrance of Jinling’s high-speed rail station.

“Boss, we’ve arrived at the high-speed rail station. What did you bring here for?”

Zhou Chao grinned and nodded at Lin Wu.

“Miss Gu, you can hold onto these keys!” Lin Wu handed the Rolls-Royce car keys to Gu Yan.

Gu Yan looked puzzled, holding the keys and looking at Zhou Chao. For a mont, she didn’t know what to say.

“If you have these keys, you can drive the car. Consider it a studio’s transportation. Well, it’s ti for you to go back. We’re heading inside!

After saying this, Zhou Chao walked into the station, and Lin Wu and o Yan quickly followed, leaving Gu Yan standing there in astonishnt.

When she snapped back to reality, Zhou Chao and the others had already disappeared into the bustling crowd at the station.

“I didn’t expect the boss to be so generous. I’ll have to show off to my friends when 1 get back!” Gu Yan said with a delighted expression as she opened the car door and got in. However, they had only driven a couple of kiloters before the car stopped.

“Zhou Bastard, did you forget to refuel the car?” soone shouted in frustration!

Zhou Chao and his group had managed to buy first-class seats for the trip back to Modu.

They didn’t encounter any of the issues they had faced on the way to Jinling, and Zhou Chao took a short nap on the train. When he woke up, they had already arrived at Modu Hongqiao Station.

“Xiao Yan, can you check your exam results today?” Zhou Chao suddenly looked at Guo Yan, who was sitting next to him as they exited the train station.

Guo Yan was montarily stunned but quickly regained her composure. She thought for a mont and then nodded, “Yes, I can check my results today.”

“Great, let’s head back to Huazhou Junting!” Zhou Chao said, heading towards the parking garage, where they got into the sa car they had used earlier and left the train station.

Once they arrived ho, Zhou Chao led Guo Yan straight to the basent ga room.

“Don’t worry, there’s no need to be nervous. You’ll definitely get a high score!”

“Bro, I’m not nervous at all. 1 think it’s you who’s nervous!”

“Don’t talk nonsense. Check your score already!” Zhou Chao pointed to the open computer and asked her to sit down.

“Okay,” Guo Yan sat at the computer, took out her old phone, and opened her album to find her admission ticket.

She opened the official website, followed the instructions to enter her admission ticket number, and paused when it ca ti to confirm.

“Bro, how about you take a look just in case? What if I did poorly?” Guo Yan, who had lost her previous composure, looked nervous.

“Who just said she wasn’t nervous!”

Zhou Chao glanced at her hand on the mouse and clicked it without hesitation.

Before the computer screen could display the results, Guo Yan scread with her eyes covered, “Ah! 1 won’t look, 1 won’t look!”

This left Zhou Chao dumbfounded.

“Bro, how did 1 do?”

“The page hasn’t loaded yet; don’t panic!”

“Oh,” Guo Yan carefully removed her hands and looked at the computer.

The results were displayed in an instant.

“Bro, please look, I got 688 points, fifth in the whole of Fuzhou! Oh, Bro, look!!” Guo Yan stood up excitedly, grabbing Zhou Chao’s hand.

“I see it, I see it. Don’t get too excited!” Zhou Chao pressed her head gently, afraid that she might faint from excitent.

Zhou Chao glanced at the computer and felt a sense of relief at the score displayed there.

“I know! Hehe!”

Just as she finished speaking, Zhou Chao’s phone rang.

He took it out and saw that it was a call from Third Aunt.

“Here, it’s a call from your mom. She’s probably asking about your results!” Zhou Chao said before answering the phone.

“Hello, Third Aunt!”

“Xiao Chao, is Guo Yan with you? Her phone has been off every ti 1 tried calling!”

Upon hearing this, Zhou Chao looked at Guo Yan beside him and asked, “Did you change your phone and forget to inform your mom?”

Guo Yan twirled her index fingers in a circle and said embarrassedly, “I got carried away these past few days and forgot!”

Zhou Chao shook his head in exasperation and then picked up the phone, saying, “Third Aunt, Guo Yan is with . We were just checking her exam results. Is there sothing wrong?”

“You have no idea, my phone has been ringing off the hook today. Many people have been calling . Guo Yan’s school, as well as so universities like Southwest University and Tsinghua University, all of them called hoping that Guo Yan would enroll in their schools. I haven’t had a mont’s peace since early in the morning!”

Zhou Chao suddenly rembered that he had destroyed the SIM card earlier, and no one else had Guo Yan’s phone number. Even her teachers didn’t have it, so he had to call Third Aunt.

“Third Aunt, I understand. If anyone else calls, just tell them that Guo Yan has made her decision. You can also inform her class teacher the sa way.”

“Xiao Chao, which university are you planning to send Guo Yan to?”

Zhou Chao glanced at Guo Yan beside him and then said to Third Aunt, “I’m planning to send her to a military academy to toughen her up.”

“Great, great! You’re putting in so much effort for this matter!”

“We’re family, there’s no need to be so formal.”

“Alright, I’ll hang up now. I’ll inform her class teacher.”

“Okay, goodbye, Third Aunt..”
