Childhood Sweethearts: He's Jealous Again!-Chapter 500: Tong Mo Did Not Come to Take the College Entrance Exam
Chapter 500: Chapter 500: Tong Mo Did Not Come to Take the College Entrance Exam
"Of course not!" Tong Mo was also beaming with happiness.
"What’s there to be happy about," Gu Zhihan said emotionlessly, throwing cold water on it.
In reality, he was green with envy.
Why hadn’t he been assigned to the same exam room as Mengmeng?
At the very least, in the same room, they could have looked out for each other. Of course, he wasn’t talking about cheating—cheating during the college entrance exam was tantamount to courting death.
What he meant by looking out was, for instance, being able to talk during rest times.
Tong Mo, an old hand at reading people, could easily tell he was jealous that she and Mengmeng were in the same exam room. She immediately made a face at him, "Humph, I’m just happy, to make you jealous, to make you jealous."
"Childish."
Gu Zhihan rolled his eyes in annoyance and stopped looking at her.
Luo Mengmeng: "..."
Suddenly, the day of the college entrance exam arrived.
The weather that day was atrocious; not only was it gloomy, but it was also drizzling lightly.
Concerned they might catch a cold from the rain, Gu’s mother skipped work and drove them straight to the exam site.
"Mengmeng, Hanhan, you need to do your best!"
When getting out of the car, Gu’s mother quickly encouraged the two.
"Don’t worry, godmother," Luo Mengmeng said with a sweet smile.
Perhaps it was really because she had cleared the air with Gu Zhihan that day, and at this moment, Mengmeng was truly at ease.
She had decided that even if she didn’t do well, she would go to the Capital to study, and it wouldn’t matter even if she could only attend an average university there.
"We’ll try our best," Gu Zhihan said with a rare smile.
Afterwards, he and Luo Mengmeng exchanged glances before heading into their respective exam rooms.
Fortuitously, Mengmeng and Tong Mo were not only in the same room this time but their seats were also one behind the other.
Tong Mo was in front, Mengmeng behind.
Once Mengmeng entered the exam room, she placed her transparent pencil case on the desk.
She looked around at the unfamiliar setting and strangers, her heart racing.
After taking several deep breaths, Mengmeng calmed down and sat there, sometimes recalling the material she had reviewed the day before, and other times wondering when Tong Mo would arrive.
However, when the first exam bell rang, Tong Mo had still not entered the room.
"Strange... where could she be?" Luo Mengmeng couldn’t help furrowing her brow, as countless thoughts rushed through her mind.
Had she forgotten that today was the day of the college entrance exam?
Was there an accident on the way?
Or had she gone to the wrong test site?
Luo Mengmeng was so worried she couldn’t stand it; she decided to run out and make a phone call to check on her.
"Student, the first exam bell has already rung; it’s forbidden to go out," a proctor’s voice came from the podium, his eyes half-closed as he glanced over at her.
"But I have something really urgent," she protested.
"Even so, you can’t leave."
"Alright then."
Luo Mengmeng had no choice but to return to her seat, comforting herself that Tong Mo might have just had a small mishap and would probably arrive soon.
Right.
It must be so!
However, even as the exam went on, even halfway through, Mengmeng still hadn’t seen Tong Mo appear.
It was as if she had decided not to come to the exam.
Luo Mengmeng was really worried about her, but with the college entrance exam papers right in front of her, she could only cast her concerns aside for the moment and focus on the test.
Meanwhile, on the other side.
Tong Mo had not forgotten that today was the day of the college entrance exam, nor had she taken a wrong turn; she had actually gotten up bright and early, quickly got ready, and rode her bike to school wearing a raincoat.
But who would have thought that halfway through her ride...
