The next afternoon, as he had said, Ji Chen drove them to their new residence.
Gu Xiao and Chu An sat in the back seat and looked at Ji Chen, who was looking straight ahead with both hands on the steering wheel.
“Brother, why did you come to pick us up personally? Isn’t the company busy?” Gu Xiao looked up and happened to meet Ji Chen’s gaze in the rearview mirror as he raised his head when he heard her speak.
After Ji Chen took over the Ji Group, he did not give up on his own company.
But because of this, Ji Chen was managing the development direction of the two large corporations and was much busier than when he was managing his own company. He had to go on business trips from time to time.
Sometimes, when Gu Xiao contacted Ji Chen, Ji Chen was either on the plane or in another country.

After Ji Chen turned the steering wheel, he glanced at Gu Xiao through the rearview mirror.
“I’m a little busy, but I still have time to pick you up.”
Because there were too many things to do in the Ji Group, and there were even some loopholes, Ji Chen could only pay more attention to the Ji Group, while he hired a professional manager to manage his own company.
Although he knew what Gu Xiao was thinking, he was a serious person and did not want the Ji Group to collapse in his hands.
So… it was better to find a time to send the Ji Group back according to his previous plans.
Ji Chen looked very calm. It was impossible to tell that he was thinking about how to give the Ji Group away.
After sending Gu Xiao and Chu An to the residential district, Ji Chen handed over the entry permissions to the two of them and drove away.
After watching Ji Chen’s car leave, Gu Xiao and Chu An walked towards the building that Ji Chen mentioned. When they opened the door, they were surprised to see the renovation style inside.
Different from the cold renovation style that they had imagined, the whole house had a warm color, totally different from Ji Chen’s cold personality.
As if hearing the commotion at the door, a figure walked out of the kitchen.
Seeing the two of them, that person was the first to smile. “You must be Miss Gu Xiao and Young Master Chu An, right? I’m the auntie Young Master Ji Chen hired to be in charge of your food for the next few days.”
Actually, they usually wouldn’t take on such short-term jobs, but the pay Mr. Ji offered was too high. Just these three to four days were equivalent to their monthly salary, which really tempted them.
The auntie looked at Gu Xiao and Chu An in front of her, her eyes filled with joy.
Gu Xiao nodded at the auntie. “Excuse me, how are our rooms arranged?”
“Mr. Ji said that Miss Gu and Young Master Chu can choose a room at will.”
Upon hearing this, Gu Xiao exchanged a few words with the auntie before going to choose rooms with Chu An.
There were a total of four bedrooms in the apartment, and each bedroom had traces of cleaning. It was obvious that Ji Chen had made sufficient preparations to let them choose the room they liked.

The auntie that Ji Chen hired was indeed worthy of the high salary he gave her. Gu Xiao and Chu An did not have to worry about anything, and the auntie could prepare everything.
On the day of the college entrance examination, the auntie even specially checked their things for them. After confirming that there were no missing items, she watched the two of them leave the apartment.
The two of them walked towards the examination hall with relaxed expressions. There was no trace of nervousness about the college entrance examination at all.
When she heard the bell ring, Gu Xiao put down the pen in her hand completely. She looked at the densely packed answers on the answer sheet and suddenly felt a sense of disappointment.
It was really over. Her high school life and her college entrance examination had all ended at this moment.
Gu Xiao stood up with the crowd and walked out with them.
Some of the people around her left in groups and were whispering what they had answered on the exam to their companions. There were also people who seemed to have done well with smiles on their faces. Of course, there were also people who wailed as soon as they left the classroom.
Gu Xiao looked at the crowd around her. There was no emotion in her heart, and her expression was as usual.
“Xiaoxiao!”
Hearing Chu An’s voice, Gu Xiao came back to her senses from the noisy and cold surroundings and suddenly looked in the direction of the voice.
When Chu An’s figure appeared in her eyes, Gu Xiao’s eyes finally had a trace of warmth..
