Chapter One Hundred and Seven: Mr. Gu

soon as the door opened, a sight met my eyes: someone with a worried face, disheveled hair. If anyone else had seen them, they would have been terrified, thinking they'd encountered a ghost."Xue Xue,...It's Saturday today. Lao Lu said there's an important academic lecture at the Business School today, and she should go listen to it. 。Chen Lao hammered it home, "Those who don't come will face the consequences." 。At three o'clock in the afternoon, Xu Yixue went to the Business Building. 。Xu Yixue looked at the few female classmates beside Lao Lu, and then at Li Tao beside her, trying to control the upward curve of her mouth. 。"Junior Sister, it's been a long time..." 。Li Tao leaned closer to her and whispered into her ear. 。Xu Yixue moved her lips, "Senior brother, long time no see" 。"Little sister, I passed my PhD entrance exam.
