Reborn into the 70: Turning Adversity into Her Dazzling Path

Chapter 596: Chapter 596: Don’t Even Think About It

”Who are you looking for?”

When the door opened, Gu Juan saw a man dressed like a mailman, pushing a green bicycle, and asked in confusion.

”You must be Gu Lingling, right?” The mailman uncle said with a smile, ”Good child, your admission letter has arrived.”

To deliver an admission letter to Qin City’s top high school graduate, the mailman uncle felt very honored.

He looked at the girl in front of him with pride.

”You are truly amazing, bringing honor to Qin City,” the mailman uncle continued proudly, ”Kyoto University, that’s the highest institute in our country.”

”Good child, keep working hard, strive to bring glory to the nation and to Qin City.”

”I... thank you, uncle,” Gu Juan said with a sweet smile, ”I will definitely work hard.”

”Truly a good child,” the mailman uncle said smiling, handing the admission letter to Gu Juan.

But he didn’t notice her fleeting cold smile.

”Who was it?” Once back inside, Old Sir Gu asked, ”Who came?”

”No one,” Gu Juan said, ”Just someone passing by asking for directions.”

”Oh.” Old Sir Gu didn’t suspect anything and nodded, then said to her, ”What are your plans now?”

”Isn’t the college entrance exam reinstated? Do you want to prepare to take the exam?” Old Sir Gu asked, ”Lingling’s study materials are still here at home. If you get into college, grandpa will support you.”

Old Sir Gu was sincerely thinking of what’s best for Gu Juan.

His granddaughter was still young; though she’d been through many detours, it was fine as long as she could change now. Moreover, a girl should acquire some education.

Reading gives wisdom.

He genuinely hoped his granddaughter could achieve something in the future.

”I’m quite foolish,” Gu Juan said with a faint smile, ”How could I be as smart as Lingling and score so well?”

Though she had a smile on her face, her hand hidden in her sleeve was tightly clenched.

So what if you scored well?

Without the admission letter, it doesn’t matter how well you did; you still can’t go. In the future, won’t it be the same as her?

”As long as you’re willing to work hard, grandpa believes you can make it,” Old Sir Gu looked at her and said, ”Juanzi, it’s still good for girls to study so they can have a decent job and support themselves.”

”Grandpa, I can support myself now,” Gu Juan lifted her head and said, ”Forget about taking the college entrance exam. I’m not cut out for it.”

Start studying again?

Better forget about it!

After experiencing so much, she was no longer the same Gu Juan as before. How could she peacefully open a textbook again?

”Grandpa, I have something to do. I’ll come back to see you another day.” Seeing Old Sir Gu was about to speak, Gu Juan hurriedly said, ”I have to go now.”

”This child...” Old Sir Gu sighed behind her.

Once she walked out of the village, Gu Juan took out the admission letter from her pocket, glanced at it, and smiled slightly, ”Gu Lingling, do you want to go to school? Don’t even think about it.”

After speaking, she decisively tore up the admission letter that determined Gu Lingling’s fate.

”School? Go to hell.” After tearing it up, she disdainfully tossed the admission letter into the roadside field and walked off in her little high heels.

Not far away, a boy looked at her in confusion, then went into the field and picked up all the torn pieces of paper that Gu Juan had just shredded.

The paper was torn into very small fragments. The boy thought for a moment and then wrapped them all up.
