"Qingqing and Xiyue, come to my study in ten minutes. Ayuan, you come too. We're going to have a formal family meeting!"

"The topic of the meeting is related to Qingqing Xiyue's college entrance examination. I'll tidy up the table now."

The family members were not surprised by this sudden family meeting.

While parents may not have the final say on their child's upcoming college entrance examination and the subsequent college application process, they certainly have the right to offer advice.

After watering the potted plants on the balcony, Gu Qing changed into her pajamas and went downstairs.

After entering the study, Gu Qing naturally sat down next to Su Xiyue, while Gu Yuan and Su Changqin sat opposite him.

Su Changqin had already brewed the tea and poured it for everyone before she spoke:

"The college entrance exam is in two weeks, and your teacher has already sent me the results of your last mock exam."

"Although it's not a college entrance exam score, as long as the fluctuation isn't too large, it's still very valuable for reference."

Su Changqin took a sip of tea, paused, and then continued:

"Xiyue and Qingqing, you're not young anymore. You'll both be adults in a few months, so I'd like to ask you about your plans for the future."

"If not, that's okay. We can set a short-term goal first, like a preferred university."

After listening to Su Changqin's words, Gu Qing and Su Xiyue exchanged a knowing glance.

Then, Gu Qing looked at Su Changqin, then at Gu Yuan, and spoke first, "Aunt Su, Dad, I'm planning to apply to Jinling University in the provincial capital."

Upon hearing this answer, Gu Yuan's smile remained unchanged, while Su Changqin asked with some surprise:

"With your grades, Qingqing, you could easily get into a better university in Beijing. Do you just not want to be too far from home?"

Su Changqin knew that Gu Qing was a young man with his own opinions, so she did not intend to persuade him, but was simply curious.

“That’s only one aspect.” Gu Qing nodded. “The capital city is too stressful and has too many people. In comparison, I prefer Nanjing, which is just right in every way.”

"I see."

Su Changqin put down her teacup, refilled it, and then continued:

"I support your decision, Qingqing. What are your thoughts on your professional abilities?"

"Law or public administration," Gu Qing replied.

In fact, Gu Qing had already thought about her university major before she started her new family.

Both law and public administration are disciplines with broad employment prospects.

The former can work in fields such as adjudication, prosecution, judicial administration, law, and public security.

However, law exams are very tiring, and Gu Qing doesn't have as much of an advantage in this area as she did in high school.

I'm afraid that once you choose this major, you'll become very busy.

As for the latter, Gu Qing's main motivation was to "pass the civil service exam and secure a government job."

The so-called end of the universe is the fabric, and this is generally true in any world.

However, the path of taking the civil service exam is like a thousand troops crossing a single-plank bridge; the competition is extremely fierce.

Before starting a new family, Gu Qing had some reservations.

However, after remarrying and learning about Su Changqin's background, Gu Qing still chose public administration as one of her majors.

Although this might create dependence on Su Changqin, for the time being, the future of this blended family is still worth Gu Qing's gamble.

After hearing Gu Qing's choice, Su Changqin couldn't help but nod repeatedly, a satisfied smile appearing on her face.

Gu Qing has a calm personality and behaves in a manner completely unlike a seventeen or eighteen-year-old boy; moreover, he is very principled.

She had always intended to groom Gu Qing to follow in her footsteps, and now Gu Qing's choice of major perfectly aligns with her wishes.

However, sometimes being too mature is not necessarily a good thing.

More than her career, Su Changqin hopes that her children can live a happy and fulfilling life.

After thinking for a moment, Su Changqin asked earnestly:

"Qingqing, if we disregard employment factors and only consider our interests, what major would you like to study?"

Gu Qing was slightly taken aback upon hearing this.

He really didn't expect Su Changqin to ask that question.

However, if we think about this issue carefully...

Are there any fishing professionals?

As soon as Gu Qing uttered those words, everyone present stopped what they were doing and turned to look at him.

His gaze was filled with disbelief, as if he had suddenly realized something like, "So this is the real Gu Qing."

33. Grandma Su Xiyue's alma mater

Inside the study on the first floor.

Gu Qing was wearing light blue pajamas.

The pajamas had a deep neckline, revealing a pair of slender collarbones that looked as if they had been skillfully sculpted, with graceful curves.

Her smooth, black hair, not tied up, fell naturally over her shoulders, giving her a serene and elegant air, like a narcissus blooming alone in the still of the night.

But what's surprising is...

This daffodil, blooming for no one, was now fantasizing about something completely unrelated to him.

After get off work, I go home, pick up my beloved fishing gear, ride my electric bike, and head to the small river on the outskirts of the town.

Then throw out bait to attract fish and create a feeding area, then let the hook catch the bait.

A graceful swing, the buoy bobbing on the river.

Finally, as night deepened, after picking up the empty fish basket, I looked around to see if there was anything that could serve as a harvest.

A stray cat or a worn-out shoe, or if all else fails, catch a snake.

In short, one must never admit to being an air force operator, otherwise it would damage the dignity of the fishing enthusiasts.

This is a fragment of Gu Qing's past life.

Or perhaps it was one of the few moments in his otherwise dull and monotonous life that brought him personal joy.

That's why.

When Su Changqin suddenly asked Gu Qing about her hobbies, the first thing that came to mind was fishing.

"I never expected Qingqing to like fishing!"

Su Changqin's tone was filled with surprise, as if she were getting to know Gu Qing all over again.

Fishing is a tedious and patient sport that requires a certain level of physical and mental fitness.

And often the rewards are completely disproportionate to the effort put in.

Moreover, those who truly enjoy fishing often prefer wild fishing.

Not only do they face wind and sun, but they also have to feed mosquitoes at night.

Let alone young boys like Gu Qing, even some middle-aged and elderly men rarely get involved in this sport.

It's mostly older women who enjoy fishing.

However, if you're looking for a hobby, fishing is indeed a pretty good sport.

"Among related majors, it seems that only aquaculture studies has fishing as a branch."

Su Changqin pondered for a moment and said, "If Qingqing likes it, then... it's not impossible."

"But it's best to just stay as a **."

"You can join relevant clubs or hobby groups at school, and there might even be related minor courses."

Su Changqin spoke with a hint of persuasion, as she simply couldn't imagine a young and handsome boy like Qingqing working in the aquaculture industry.

Although there is no distinction between high and low status in any profession, it is still really tiring.

In fact, not only Su Changqin, but even Gu Qing himself could not imagine himself engaging in aquaculture.

Does this mean that in the future, people will be selling fish at the market while holding a copy of "The Art of War"?

His surname isn't Gao!

"She's just a little interested in fishing, Aunt Su, don't overthink it."

It is certainly something to be happy about when you can turn your hobby into a career.

But not all hobbies are suitable to become a career.

Take Su Xiyue for example.

Her hobby is Gu Qing's little feet. If this were to become a profession, would she become a technician at a foot massage parlor?

I'm afraid Su Changqin will kill her!

"I'm glad you understand, Qingqing."
