77: Gold mission! Completed!
Guo Hao sat in his bedroom.
His mind was slightly in a daze.
It was over.
The sense of urgency that had been weighing on Guo Hao's heart before suddenly relaxed, leaving Guo Hao with a strange feeling.
The sense of urgency he felt now was completely different from the urgency he felt when he was doing business.
At that time, his tension mainly stemmed from survival; that kind of tension could not disappear.
After all, at that time, he was still too far away from financial freedom.
But his current tension only stemmed from the short-term goal of the College Entrance Examination.
Now that this short-term goal was over.
For a moment, Guo Hao was actually a little dazed.
Sitting in his seat, Guo Hao couldn't help but pick up a book.
Studying, under certain circumstances, had become a habit for Guo Hao.
There's nothing wrong with that, right?
Guo Hao smiled slightly.
He casually opened the Physics book.
Without the pressure of the College Entrance Examination, Guo Hao read the book without any utilitarian motive or problem-solving mindset.
He just looked at the Physics book, occasionally picking out one or two interesting problems to play mind games with.
"Guo Hao?"
At this moment, the door opened.
Guo's mother walked into the room and was slightly stunned to see Guo Hao still reading.
"I called you many times just now and you didn't answer... Why are you still reading? Haven't you finished the College Entrance Examination?"
Guo's mother looked at Guo Hao in front of her with some confusion.
"Just reading for fun. What else is there to do if I don't read?"
Guo Hao smiled and said to Guo's mother.
"Go, go, go! You've finished the College Entrance Examination and you're still reading! You need to give yourself some space and time to rest! Don't push yourself too hard!"
Guo's mother said to Guo Hao in annoyance.
Guo Hao was slightly helpless.
Many Dragon Country parents are like this. When their children don't read, the parents feel that the children are not studying and are not motivated.
But once the children are too diligent and serious, the parents start to worry about their children's health again.
"Okay!"
Guo Hao nodded.
"Come on! I've finished cooking the dumplings, come and eat some dumplings!"
He left the room to eat dumplings.
After the College Entrance Examination ended.
Almost all student groups were sharing College Entrance Examination answers, and many people started estimating their scores.
Guo Hao wasn't very curious about his score.
Anyway, it would only take about twenty days for the College Entrance Examination scores to be released.
For Guo Hao, he only had one option: exceed 640 points!
Only then would the College Entrance Examination have enough significance for him, otherwise, for Guo Hao, this College Entrance Examination would be a failure!
In short, Guo Hao had no place in this bustling scene.
However, Wang Xi did.
"Ah, this time it's definitely over."
In the internet cafe, Wang Xi's eyes were full of helplessness as he looked at Guo Hao beside him.
"What's wrong?"
Guo Hao was playing a game. He had just been kicked out of the house by his Mom, because after the College Entrance Examination, Guo Hao was still playing games at home every day, and Guo's mother was afraid that Guo Hao would get sick from being cooped up.
So she kicked him out and told him to go out and play more.
Hence, Guo Hao found Wang Xi and came to the internet cafe with him to play games.
"What else could it be? I checked the answers, and I feel like I probably won't even get 350 points this time. It's over, it's over!"
Wang Xi's face was full of bitterness.
Guo Hao's action of playing the game paused. He turned his head and rolled his eyes at Wang Xi.
"You guy, can you have some shame? With your usual level of effort, 350 points is considered very good! What more do you want?"
"But, when this score comes out, I'll be finished at home! If I scored over 400 points, I could still lie to my Mom and Dad and say I had a College Entrance Examination setback.
But 350 points, no one will believe it's a setback!"
Wang Xi looked at Guo Hao beside him with a bitter face.
Guo Hao didn't speak, just gave him the middle finger.
"You don't work hard yourself, and you're here every day thinking about luck. You really have a bright future!"
"I'm just thinking..."
Wang Xi said with a forced smile.
"...Let's play the game!"
Guo Hao couldn't be bothered to deal with this guy.
After playing games for a while, Guo Hao gradually adapted to the League of Legends of this era, after all, this was when League of Legends had just started.
With Guo Hao's current learning ability and reaction speed.
It was very easy to get started.
They came out after playing for three or four hours.
"I knew it, with the two of us teaming up, we could definitely dominate! In just a few games, we're almost Gold II! Next time, let's continue! We can definitely reach Diamond!"
After leaving the internet cafe, Wang Xi excitedly said to Guo Hao.
Guo Hao, however, only felt a wave of boredom.
Since experiencing the joy of learning before, the joy brought by games had significantly decreased.
The two walked out of the internet cafe, pushing their bicycles, ready to go home.
"Huh? Isn't that Shen Luoyan?"
Wang Xi beside him suddenly said.
Guo Hao looked in the direction Wang Xi pointed.
Indeed, at a small, spontaneously formed farmer's market on the street, Shen Luoyan was squatting in a corner.
In front of her were some vegetables and sweet potatoes.
Guo Hao walked over.
"Selling vegetables?"
Guo Hao asked Shen Luoyan with a smile.
Shen Luoyan raised her head, looked at Guo Hao, didn't speak, just nodded.
"Just in time, my family hasn't bought vegetables yet. I'll buy some to take back to my Mom."
"You don't need to spend money, I'll give some to Auntie."
As soon as Shen Luoyan finished speaking.
"That won't do. Wouldn't that mean I'm taking advantage of you? You're not willing to take advantage of me, how can I take advantage of your family?"
Shen Luoyan was silent, she was not good at this kind of social interaction.
Guo Hao smiled, haggled normally, and bought some green vegetables.
Just after buying, Shen Luoyan suddenly asked Guo Hao at this moment.
"How did you do on the College Entrance Examination?"
"Not bad, I should thank you for tutoring me these past few months."
Guo Hao said to Shen Luoyan.
"It's nothing, I also took the salary your family paid me every month, I just did what I was supposed to do."
Shen Luoyan's expression remained indifferent.
This was her usual demeanor, Shen Luoyan's personality was just like this.
Perhaps only studying could cause significant emotional fluctuations in her.
Guo Hao didn't mind.
He smiled at Shen Luoyan.
"Alright! Then I'll be going now."
After saying that, Guo Hao left Shen Luoyan's stall with Wang Xi.
"No way, Hao Ge, how come you and Shen Luoyan aren't very familiar yet? Why are you still like this, half-familiar and half-unfamiliar?"
Wang Xi looked at Guo Hao with some confusion.
It's been two or three months, and she's your tutor. No matter what, you should be considered friends by now, right?
"You don't know Shen Luoyan's personality?"
Guo Hao glanced at Wang Xi and said in a bad mood.
"It's good enough that she even talks to me! What does it have to do with time?"
"You're right!"
Wang Xi nodded.
After returning home, Guo Hao continued to read, looking forward to the arrival of the College Entrance Examination scores.
This continued until June 23rd, the day the College Entrance Examination scores were released.
This day was the Dragon Boat Festival.
The whole family stayed at home.
They started checking the scores online!
After experiencing several website crashes, under the tense eyes of the three people.
Finally!
Guo Hao's score was refreshed.
668 points!
192nd in the province!
Seeing this score, Guo's Father and Guo's mother's eyes immediately showed intense surprise.
And at this moment! The System prompt sounded almost simultaneously in Guo Hao's mind!
