Reborn as a woman in a superpowered society: My father remarried and gained an older sister.

Judging from the speed at which she replies to messages, her typing speed must have been the result of a lot of practice.

"Eat something!"

Gu Qing said to Su Xiyue.

The girl was anxiously waiting for her college entrance exam results during dinner, so she didn't have much of an appetite.

But it seems to be healed now.

"Mmm, I'll eat right away!"

Su Xiyue responded, but her hands remained glued to her phone.

Gu Qing could only shake her head gently, pick up a rice dumpling, peel off the bamboo leaves with her jade-like fingers to reveal the soft, glutinous, and tender part.

Gu Qing placed the zongzi, which looked like a "chubby little white guy," into a small bowl and presented it to Su Xiyue.

"Eat it while it's hot; it's bad for your stomach if it gets cold," Gu Qing said.

Gu Qing has gone to such lengths; if the young girl continues to hold her phone, it would be rather ungrateful.

"Thank you, Gu Qing!"

Su Xiyue took the small bowl from Gu Qing's hand, and their fingertips briefly touched.

Since it's not autumn yet, there won't be any tingling static electricity.

"Qingqing, don't always spoil Xiyue. She's the older sister and should be taking care of her younger brother!"

Seeing the interaction between her daughter, who was more like a father and daughter than siblings, Su Changqin couldn't help but frown and glare at her.

After Gu Yuan brought Gu Qing with her when she married into the family, Su Changqin always showed Gu Qing great care and affection.

However, Gu Qing was just too sensible. Not only did he not give her a sense of accomplishment as a "son slave," but he also took very good care of the whole family.

A son who is so young yet so capable of managing a household—I really can't bear to marry him off.

Su Changqin sometimes thought this way.

The soft, sweet rice dumplings were a bit sticky, and Gu Qing didn't touch any more after eating one.

On the contrary, Su Xiyue seemed to be really hungry. After finishing the zongzi in her bowl, she looked over expectantly again.

The bright, watery eyes of the young girl are simply irresistible.

Gu Qing had no choice but to peel off a few more "little white fatties".

"Gu Qing, you're so kind!"

Su Xiyue's face lit up with a smile.

Although he didn't feed them directly, Gu Qing still peeled the zongzi himself.

Rounding up, that's feeding play!

Su Changqin looked helplessly at the scene before her.

She opened her mouth, wanting to scold her daughter, but Gu Yuan tugged at her arm, so she had no choice but to remain silent.

But for some reason, Su Changqin always felt that she saw a familiar light in Gu Qing's eyes.

It seems that her deceased husband always looked at his daughter with a similar tolerant gaze.

Gu Yuan watched with a smile, without saying a word.

His son, Qingqing, has always had a strong "fatherly" nature; he was already taking care of other children when he was in kindergarten.

She'll definitely be a great dad someday. Whoever marries Qingqing is truly blessed!

But when exactly will Qingqing be able to bring a girl home?

Thinking about this question, Gu Yuanzhen felt both anticipation and resistance, her heart filled with contradictions.

……

After having a late-night snack, the family roundtable meeting, which had been temporarily convened due to the college entrance examination scores, officially came to an end.

After quickly washing up, Gu Qing returned to her bedroom.

Having lived together for nearly two months, they have found a tacit understanding with each other.

For example, when they get home, Gu Qing will wash up first, while Su Xiyue will do so a little later.

The two rarely encountered awkward situations in the bathroom.

Back in her bedroom, Gu Qing, who wasn't very sleepy, didn't continue burying herself in her historical research.

Instead, I went out onto the balcony, enjoyed the evening breeze, and gazed at the night sky for a while.

Speaking of which, the astronomy department of Jinling University, which he wanted to apply to, is ranked first in the country.

Moreover, the provincial capital is home to the renowned Purple Mountain Observatory, which boasts numerous world-famous scientific research achievements.

Gu Qing inexplicably recalled a remark from a former friend:

"The most romantic thing humans have ever done is to look up at the stars."

This boundless night sky holds countless joys and sorrows.

……

Last day of June.

A morning rain refreshed the city's landscape.

But by afternoon, the scorching sun had reclaimed the sky.

Su Changqin had already booked the largest private room at a private restaurant for Su Xiyue and Gu Qing's graduation banquet today.

There weren't many people, but the portions were surprisingly generous.

Su Changqin invited several colleagues with whom he had a good relationship, or what could be interpreted as allies with whom he could trust each other.

These individuals, while not holding high positions, still occupy important roles.

Even before they entered, Su Changqin, along with Gu Qing and Su Xiyue, waited at the entrance to greet them.

Upon meeting, they exchanged pleasantries and introduced the two to the aunties.

In a way, this can be considered as paving the way in advance.

Of course, whether or not we take this path depends on future developments.

Gu Yuan also invited several male colleagues with whom he had a good relationship.

In addition to the homeroom teachers of Gu Qing and Su Xiyue's respective classes, this completes the lineup for the graduation banquet.

On the surface, graduation banquets are primarily for students, celebrating their achievement of reaching a new peak in life.

But in reality, it's more like adults showing off to each other, or spreading the word and sending signals.

Therefore, after a few rounds of drinks, the conversation naturally shifted to other things.

Su Changqin and Gu Yuan, one as the hostess and the other as the host, each greeted their own guests.

The two main characters, Su Xiyue and Gu Qing, seemed to have nothing to do.

Gu Qing was alright, listening to Su Changqin and her colleagues discuss domestic and international affairs.

Although it was said in a very subtle way, if you are attentive, you can still understand some of it.

Su Xiyue, however, was a little restless and had to talk with her two homeroom teachers about college entrance examination scores and college application.

As the conversation progressed, Gu Qing was also drawn into the topic.

"Gu Qing, your sister said you're going to Jinling University. Are you interested in astronomy?" asked Mr. Yang, the homeroom teacher.

Given Gu Qing's grades, he chose Jinling University instead of the top universities in the capital or Shanghai.

As a teacher, one can only guess that Gu Qing went to Jin University because of its top-ranked astronomy department.

"I don't plan to major in astronomy."

Gu Qing replied, "Law or public administration, but I've also been considering philosophy recently."

The idea of ​​becoming a philosophy department is a recent one for Gu Qing.

In the process of studying historical materials, Gu Qing inevitably began to think about some philosophical questions.

However, without systematic learning, it was difficult for him to make a breakthrough, so he also started thinking about it.

Moreover, the Philosophy Department is a national-level featured major at Jinling University, with sufficient faculty resources.

In terms of future employment, although it may not have the same broad prospects as public administration, it is still a profession with options for advancement or retreat.

71. Rainy days and driving test part two

Compared to graduation banquets, which often have a social aspect, teacher appreciation banquets are much more purely social.
