Chapter 486: with translation of chapter title

Mu Youyu raised her brows and looked at the display board; the colorful font bearing her name was the most eye‑catching, with Jiang Liangjin's name and score right beside it, and the surrounding lights flickered.

Jiang Liangjin only then realized the staff member's hand wasn't cramping—they were secretly pointing at the sign.

He followed behind her, reached out and pushed the door open for her.

The staff scattered flower petals more enthusiastically.

Inside the banquet hall, guests already filled the entrance; Grandma Song sat at the head seat, chatting quietly with several elders; seeing her granddaughter come in, her smile grew richer.

Mu Youyu walked over and greeted her; Grandma Song took her hand and examined her up and down, confirming she was fine before letting go, saying, "Good child, you did great—you arrived much earlier than Song Lujing."

The two just smiled.

Song LuXiao pointed his arm to a direction: "Let's all go sit down, don't stand; Chu Chu and the others are over there."

"It's almost forty, why aren't they here yet?" Grandma Song muttered casually.

The person being muttered at by Grandma was slowly looking for a parking spot.

Song Lujing had just parked steadily when a voice suddenly sounded: "Holy crap, Song Bro, when did you get your driver's license?"

Song Lujing lowered his voice: "Shh, shut up."

Gu Xingnan stood at attention: "Hello, Song Bro."

Song Lujing nodded: "Hey, you guys came pretty early."

"Not bad, just five minutes to the deadline." Yu Ci chuckled, came over and asked casually: "By the way, Song Bro, I sent you a message—why didn't you reply?"

"What message?" Song Lujing: "Anything up?"

"What was your college entrance exam score? I've been out playing these days and didn't have a chance to check."

Song Lujing closed the car door, pressed the lock button: "Seven hundred thirty-one."

Yu Ci fell silent for a moment, "……"

Gu Xingnan lightly patted his shoulder, turned his gaze: "Brother Jing, congratulations."

"Same congratulations." Song Lujing raised an eyebrow: "How about you?"

Yu Ci still hadn't recovered from the earlier blow, muttered dully: "Six hundred eighty."

Gu Xingnan stood beside, tone calm: "Seven hundred-ish."

Song Lujing said "Oh", didn't pursue further, turned and walked toward the hotel entrance: "I'm going to find my sister."

Yu Ci followed behind him, took two steps then suddenly quickened his pace: "No, wait, is six hundred eighty bad? I transferred midway; achieving this level is already strong, okay?"

Song Lujing didn't turn his head: "I also think it's pretty good."

Yu Ci was choked by that remark, felt something was off but couldn't put it into words.

Gu Xingnan softly advised: "Don't ask, you did well."

"Alright."

Song Lujing walked in; Grandma Song was energetically greeting guests, and upon seeing someone she waved: "Xiao Jing, come over quick so Grandma can take a look."

"Okay, Grandma, grandson is coming right now."

Song Lujing stepped forward cooperatively; Grandma Song reached out and patted his shoulder: "Our Xiao Jing is really handsome today, not bad, scored three digits—Grandma shouldn't have underestimated you."

After Song Lujing's college entrance exam results came out, he earned several billion with Mu Nian and Lu Yuchu, plus the island gifted by his birth mother; these days he's been having a blast.

It could be said he's overjoyed, forgetting what his grandma previously said: "Where's Grandma? I know I'm handsome!"

"……" After Grandma Song finally let go, Song Lujing straightened up and moved aside.

He immediately spotted his sister, the corner of his mouth twitched up, about to walk over, but Song LuXiao grabbed him from the side: "Come with me over there first; a few elders want to see you."

"I don't want to……" Protest ineffective, Song Lujing was half-dragged away.

Yu Ci and Gu Xingnan took the chance, one in front and one behind, approached: "Grandma, hello."

Grandma Song smiled at the two children: "Good, good, good, Xiao Ci looks taller again, Xiao Nan is still as gentle."

Yu Ci laughed brightly: "Grandma, you're still as young as ever."

Grandma Song, pleased by his coaxing, couldn't stop smiling, waved her hand: "Alright, alright, go play, don't keep me this old lady company."

Yu Ci replied with a smile: "Okay, Grandma, then we'll go find Youbao and them."

"……"

Mu Youyu was sitting in the seat behind the main table, holding a cup of freshly poured juice.

Jiang Liangjin sat beside her, the distance between them less than a fist, their heads close together, they were flipping through a phone.

The brothers were sitting, attending to their own matters, no one disturbed them.

Yu Ci pulled Gu Xingnan through the crowd over, grabbed a chair and sat beside Mu Xi: "You're hiding here? I almost got blinded by that display board at the entrance just now."

While saying that, he gestured: "Those characters are way too big; someone who doesn't know might think it's some master's art exhibition."

Jiang Liangjin glanced at him: "That's actually good—free treatment for your nearsightedness."

Yu Ci choked: "When did I become nearsighted?"

He turned his head seeking support: "Ah Nan, do you think I'm nearsighted?"

Gu Xingnan gave him a serious look: "Not nearsighted."

Just a bit of astigmatism, that's all.

"See, I told you I'm not nearsighted!"

No one paid attention; Yu Ci leaned back, his gaze swept the banquet hall, shifted topic: "Why do I feel there are so many unfamiliar faces today? Who's sitting at that table over there?"

Mu Youyu followed his gaze and glanced; indeed it was a table of people: "Friends of Brother Huaiyu; he said something about the lab having a project later tonight, so he brought them over for dinner."

"Inviting guests to Song Bro's birthday banquet—he really knows how to arrange things. Has Brother Xian come? Last time he even said if I did well on the exam he'd buy me a car……"

Lately Yu Ci doesn't want anything else; he just wants many cool supercars, and once he turns adult next year he'll pick one to drive each day!

Gu Xingnan knows this is the main reason he's willing to give up vacation and come back to C City.

Jiang Liangjin conceded: "Didn't I already give you a car before?"

Yu Ci is definitely not satisfied, "That one of yours is different, that one of yours is a birthday gift; once it's given, my birthday is over. But Xian Ge gave it to celebrate my smooth college entrance exam! So where is Xian Ge?"

"Backstage." Mu Xi said, then moved closer to her sister, bent down and whispered something.

Mu Youyu nodded, then he turned and walked toward the backstage.

Backstage, then I'll go inquire later, Yu Ci thought smugly, and then turned back to Jiang Liangjin: "What's up with A Jin's foreign language on the college entrance exam? How could points be deducted? I got full marks, eh."

Jiang Liangjin finally lifted his eyes and glanced at him: "Too easy, left a question blank."

"……" Yu Ci, who was about to mock him at the opportunity, turned his body away silently, "I wasn't talking to you."

Jiang Liangjin snorted, "Look, speaking the truth, you're not happy again."

Really hard to please.
