Chapter 1033: Lin Miao’s Celebration Party

Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

After receiving her scholarship, Gu Zi was surrounded by leaders from the Education Bureau, all eager to pose for photos.

The flashing lights of the cameras created a whirlwind of attention, but Gu Zi stood there, radiant as ever. Her gaze naturally drifted to the crowd, and there, at the edge of the stage, stood a tall figure, his eyes fixed solely on her. The moment their eyes met, an unspoken connection passed between them, deep and undeniable.

Gong Zhan, positioned in a prime spot with a clear view of the stage, watched the exchange between Gu Zi and Su Shen with a complex expression. At this point, he lacked the courage to even step forward and offer his congratulations.

In that brief, painful moment, he came to a bitter realization—someone as brilliant as Gu Zi would thrive no matter who she was with. She was exceptional on her own. The truth settled painfully in his chest: he had missed his chance.

He turned to Gong Xin and said with a forced smile, “Congratulate her for me later. I’m leaving now. You stay and enjoy the celebration.” Without waiting for a response, he turned and left, his back stiff as he walked away.

Gong Xin watched her older brother’s retreating figure, then glanced over at Gu Zi and Su Shen.

By now, Gu Zi had stepped down from the stage, and Su Shen had made his way over to her. The sight of the two together—so harmonious, so right—made Gong Xin understand her brother’s hasty exit. He had always been the one to let go of good things, and perhaps this was just another example. frёeωebɳovel.com

She felt a flicker of sympathy for him, though not much. In the end, it was his own fault for letting Gu Zi slip away.

By noon, the banquet rooms at Golden Sun Hotel’s first floor were filling up with the Gu family, gathered to celebrate Lin Miao’s entrance to university.

Lin Miao, dressed in a new outfit and looking every bit the part, enjoyed the compliments of her family and friends around the table.

Earlier that morning, Lin Miao had planned to visit the school with Zhang Mei to check her exam results. However, they ran into an acquaintance who worked at the education bureau, and with a simple phone call, their plans were quickly changed.

There was no need to visit the school—her exam score had come in at 400 points. While not high enough for a prestigious university, it was enough to guarantee a spot somewhere.

Though Lin Miao wasn’t entirely satisfied with her score, she knew it wasn’t a reflection of her true abilities. During the exam, two subjects had thrown her off, and if it weren’t for those distractions, she was certain she would’ve done better.
