Tang Mo's pride is shaken by Su Zhe's intelligence, making her question her own academic standing. Meanwhile, Su Zhe celebrates finally getting broadband internet installed and looks forward to the completion of his college entrance exams. He encounters Tang Mo again, who seems to have something to give him, before returning to his studies. Su Zhe is amused by rumors spreading among his classmates about him pursuing Tang Mo and anticipates revealing his exam scores.

Su Zhe completed the final question, and a great sense of relief overwhelmed him from inside out.

It was like bidding farewell to his past self; starting today,

he would enter Qinghua, acquire a swan, reach the pinnacle of his life, marry that girl he longed for, and step into the hall of marriage.

Su Zhe stood up, and under everyone’s gaze,

handed in his paper early once again.

The road ahead, long and steep as iron, is now conquered with steps from the shadows.

Su Zhe sat in the car, waiting for Tang Mo to come out.

A few days ago, when his car was parked at the school gate, no one paid attention to it. But perhaps due to Tang Mo sitting in it yesterday, many people were now frequently glancing over.

When they realized it was a Tiger Head Ben, many students who knew cars immediately exclaimed.

"Damn, it’s a Tiger Head Ben!"

"Over a million, huh?"

"Wow, there’s such a car in Su City?"

"Hey, there’s someone sitting inside..."

Then, Su Zhe was surrounded by a crowd of students; some from No.3 Middle School also saw him.

"Is it Su Zhe?"

"Wow, is his family really that rich?"

"Did he drive here himself?"

"No wonder Tang Mo fell for him... so he’s actually a rich second generation."

"Couldn’t tell at all!"

Many students from No.3 Middle School saw Su Zhe sitting in the car, and hearing their comments,

he smiled wryly. This was the reality, seeing a luxury car equaled being a second-generation rich kid.

But even if Su Zhe explained about his money, probably no one would believe it, so he didn’t bother.

Just then, Tang Mo arrived behind the crowd and, seeing Su Zhe surrounded and hearing those

sharp comments, couldn’t help but speak out: "Excuse me, make way!"

The students immediately made space, just watching Tang Mo sitting

in Su Zhe’s car.

Crack

It was as if they heard the sound of their hearts breaking.

Damn, they really are together!

"I couldn’t believe it yesterday!"

"How could Tang Mo be with someone like that, I don’t believe it?!"

Many students from No.3 were wailing there. Many of them had liked their goddess for three years; throughout those years, Tang Mo rejected everyone’s confessions, no one succeeded.

But now, watching her speeding away in Su Zhe’s car, everyone felt

a sense of desperation that marked the end of their youth.

Tang Mo was ultimately taken away.

But she was taken away by the most notorious guy in Su City No.3 Middle School.

In these days, Su Zhe’s reputation was rising quickly, and last night he became the imaginary enemy of numerous boys in No.3.

"You could’ve just used a public phone to call me, I would’ve come to pick you up."

Su Zhe drove, eyes on the road, but speaking to Tang Mo.

Tang Mo was taken aback, realizing what Su Zhe meant. He was worried about causing misunderstandings; with Tang Mo getting in his car,

the whole No.3 would spread rumors about their unclear relationship.

Yesterday it was just a rumor; today, it would probably be confirmed because so many people witnessed it.

"Those who are clear know themselves!"

Tang Mo said softly: "I didn’t think too much about getting in the car!"

Really?

Su Zhe chuckled slightly but didn’t continue the topic. Such words just needed a light touch; Tang Mo’s getting in the car was unexpected to Su Zhe, whether she had other thoughts was unknown to him.

But her getting in, just like receiving a love letter, actually involved careful consideration.

She was different from other girls; she had rejected so many pursuits over three years, yet she got into his car just now under so many watchful eyes, which itself was against her typical character.

"I just... didn’t want people to misunderstand you!"

Tang Mo finally, revealed the reason she got into the car: "Why didn’t you explain?"

"Just like you being able to get into Qinghua, and you self-studied the university material—"

"If explanations worked, why would we need court trials?"

Su Zhe suddenly turned around, looking at the girl with fluctuating emotions: "Many things, the more you explain the worse it gets, just like between you and me, do you think... can be clearly explained?"

Tang Mo slightly lowered her head, her thoughts were unclear to Su Zhe.

"As you said, those who are clear know themselves. Living is just for oneself, not for others. If I’m happy, why bother about others’ opinions?"

"In this world, there’s light as well as darkness!"

"You cannot make everyone like you, after all these years, haven’t you realized that?"

Tang Mo, in fact, should have felt this deeply.

Because the boys liked her, but the girls were filled with jealousy and ostracized her spontaneously.

In fact, Tang Mo understood that if it were her, she wouldn’t explain anything either.

But today, for some reason, seeing Su Zhe like this, she couldn’t help wanting to defend him.

After saying it, she regretted it.

She had always been a calm person, but recently didn’t know why she became unsettled.

"When did I... become so restless?"

Tang Mo thought slightly.

Su Zhe drove, quickly reaching the hospital.

"I’ll wait for you downstairs!"

Tang Mo got out of the car, suddenly feeling a bit embarrassed, which made Su Zhe feel a bit strange too.

"Alright, I’ll wait here for you!"

Su Zhe felt he could use a cigarette; waiting in the car for Tang Mo, he craved one.

But considering smoking’s health risks, he endured not lighting up.

Not long after, Tang Mo’s distinct cool voice was heard.

It was quite recognizable, like a CCTV announcer, with a crispness in her words that naturally made people feel pleasant.

But now, she seemed a bit flustered.

"Grandma, really, no need to come down, your legs are already not good!"

"I’ll hand it over to him..."

"Grandma."

Tang Mo was pleading, and Su Zhe suddenly saw a gray-haired old lady with a cane coming down the hospital staircase, with Tang Mo supporting her, holding a basket, yet her face was full of helplessness.

She saw Su Zhe and gave him a bitter smile.

Su Zhe hurried to meet them, and Tang Mo immediately introduced: "Grandma, this is my classmate, Su Zhe!"

"Hello, Grandma, I’m Su Zhe!"

Su Zhe smiled and wanted to help the old lady, but she suddenly looked up, and tears welled up in her deeply wrinkled eyes, as she wanted to kneel towards Su Zhe.

"Grandma."

Su Zhe quickly caught her, and Tang Mo exclaimed.

"Thank you... thank you so much."

The old lady cried, while pulling Tang Mo: "Sweetheart, kneel and thank your grandpa’s lifesaver!"

"Quickly."

The old lady, with much force, was struggling there, and Su Zhe felt a little anxious. How could he let the elder kneel to him?

Finally, the stubborn old lady made Tang Mo bow to Su Zhe.

The old lady herself bent slightly too.

And, of course, there was a big basket of fresh country chicken eggs.

"These were laid by our own chickens!"

"I... my grandma already cleaned them."

When Tang Mo said this, it was slightly unsteady. Su Zhe looked at the basket full of clean eggs and could imagine how the elderly, with inconvenient legs and poor eyesight, wiped them one by one.
