“Hey, bro!” Guo Yan’s lazy voice came through the phone.

“Are you up yet? I’m on my way down!”

“Bro, it’s so early, it’s just after 8!”

“Get up quickly! The sun’s already out, and if I come down and you’re still in bed, you’ll face consequences!”

“I got it, you annoying brother!” Guo Yan reluctantly crawled out of bed.

After hanging up the phone, Lin Wu commented, “Boss, by deceiving her like this, will she be mad if she finds out?”

“If you don’t tell, and I don’t tell, how will she know!”

At this moment, Zhou Chao and Lin Wu were having breakfast at the entrance of the residential complex. They had just sat down, and it would be another 20 minutes before they finished eating.

When they were done eating and just entering the residential complex, ready to go home and get in the car, Guo Yan’s phone rang.

“Hey, bro, where are you? I’m in the garage!”

“We’re stuck in traffic in Gaosuntang. Wait a little bit!” He didn’t hesitate to tell another lie.

“Oh, I’ll grab something to eat while waiting for you guys!”

“Okay, make sure to bring your admission ticket and ID with you!” Zhou Chao reminded her.

“I got it, they’re all with me!”

After hanging up the phone, Zhou Chao had a smirk on his face.

Back in the garage, Zhou Chao drove the Maserati Quattroporte they had purchased with Jiang Li’s help the last time. They left the residential complex.

The road was relatively clear, and they didn’t encounter much traffic. It took about 10 minutes to reach the Golden Coast. Guo Yan was already standing at the entrance of the residential complex, pacing back and forth.

The car came to a steady stop in front of Guo Yan. She looked stunned for a moment and quickly took a few steps towards it.

Lin Wu, sitting in the passenger seat, lowered the window and said, “Get in! What are you standing there for?”

“Ah, it’s you guys! You didn’t even call me, were you hoping to see me embarrassed?”

“What’s embarrassing about you?” Zhou Chao said heartlessly.

“Big brother, always bullying me, I’m so mad!” She crossed her arms and pouted, looking angry as she gazed out of the window.

Looking at Guo Yan’s reaction in the rearview mirror, Zhou Chao couldn’t help but burst into laughter.

“All, you’re such a mean big brother!” Guo Yan stared at her small arms and legs, only able to let out a helpless roar.

After laughing for a while, Zhou Chao finally calmed down.

“Sit tight, we’re off!”

Guo Yan’s school was also located along Binjiang Road, just towards the end of it.

Zhou Chao started the car and headed towards Guo Yan’s school, Wuzhong High School. freewebnov(e)l.com

As they entered the school gate, they noticed several students walking towards the school building.

“How do we get there?” Zhou Chao hadn’t been here in many years and didn’t remember the way.

“Turn right and go straight up to the teaching building.”

They drove slowly through the campus with students on both sides of the road, many of them casting envious glances at Zhou Chao’s car.

When they reached the teaching building Guo Yan mentioned, they parked the car. However, as soon as Guo Yan stepped out, someone called her.

“Xiao Yan!” A cheerful voice rang out.

“All, Kailin, I’ve missed you so much!” Guo Yan happily ran over and held another girl’s hand.

“Where have you been lately? You have no idea how bored I’ve been at home!”

“I went to Modu to visit my brother!”

The two girls huddled together and chatted away for what seemed like half an hour.

Zhou Chao had to speak up, “We need to take care of some things first. You two can catch up later.”

“Brother Chao~” It was only now that Kailin noticed Zhou Chao sitting in the car.

“Long time no see!”

“Let’s go, Brother, we’ll catch up later. Kailin, this is my new number, save it!” She took out her phone and called Kailin.

“Alright.” Kailin didn’t question why Guo Yan had changed her number; she assumed there was a reason for it.

After parting ways with Kailin, Guo Yan led Zhou Chao to the teachers’ office.

“Mr. Zhang!”

“Oh, Guo Yan, you’re here. We were just talking about you. I heard from your mom that you want to apply to the military academy. You need to think it through carefully. The acceptance rate for military academies is generally low, and they have strict requirements. If you don’t meet their standards in any aspect, you might get rejected and have to look at your second choice!”

Guo Yan glanced at Zhou Chao beside her and then said to her homeroom teacher, Mr. Zhang, “Teacher, I’ve made up my mind. I want to apply to the military academy.”

“Alright, now that you’ve made your choice, I’m behind you all the way. Here are the school documents. Once you’ve filled in your preferences, the local authorities will review your application. If it meets their criteria, then it’s up to the military academy to decide. If they accept you, that would be fantastic!”Mr. Zhang handed the documents to Guo Yan.

Taking the documents from Teacher Zhang, Guo Yan expressed with a touch of enthusiasm, “Thankyou, Teacher!”

“Alright, now go to the computer room on the third floor and fill in your preferences.”

“Okay, Teacher!” With a happy expression, Guo Yan left the office.

The three of them arrived at the third-floor computer room, where they noticed several people were already filling out their preferences. Perhaps they had come early, as there weren’t too many people yet. Guo Yan found an unoccupied computer and took a seat.

Following the instructions on the blackboard, Guo Yan opened the webpage for selecting preferences and swiftly filled in her choices as guided.

Her first choice, of course, was the National University of Defense Technology, and after discussing it with Zhou Chao, her second choice was Northwestern Polytechnical University.

After about 10 minutes, she completed the form successfully, and Guo Yan breathed a sigh of relief.

“Brother, where are we going now?” Guo Yan asked as she stepped out of the computer room.

“We’re going to the hospital for a full-body checkup.”

“We need to do a checkup? It sounds like a hassle!”

Even if it’s a hassle, we still need to do it. Let’s get it done quickly and aim to finish today!”

“Alright!” Guo Yan reluctantly got into the car.

Upon arrival at the People’s Hospital, Zhou Chao promptly arranged for a full-body checkup, and Guo Yan followed the nurse up and down for various tests.

Meanwhile, Zhou Chao and Lin Wu found a cool place to play on their phones.

When Guo Yan finally appeared before them, it had been two hours, and she looked exhausted. Zhou Chao greeted her, “What’s wrong? You look so tired.”

“I’m exhausted. I’ve lost count of how many tests I’ve done, but I’m finally done!”

“What did the doctor say about when you can get the results?”

“After 2:30 PAT”

Checking the time, it was almost noon. Zhou Chao suggested, “Let’s go and grab some lunch. What do you feel like eating today? It’s your call!”

“Really? I love you, big bro!” Guo Yan jumped up from her chair in excitement.

“Yeah!”

“Bro, let’s have hot pot! How does that sound?” Guo Yan looked at Zhou Chao with anticipation.

Lin Wu, who was nearby, looked at the scorching sun outside and imagined the scene of eating hot pot. He was already prepared for sweating profusely.

“Okay, let’s go,” Zhou Chao ruffled Guo Yan’s hair.

Lin Wu quickly drove the car to the hospital’s entrance and sped towards the hot pot restaurant Guo Yan mentioned.

Boss, how do you folks in Fog City think of having hot pot on such a scorching day?” Lin Wu held a tissue in his right hand and a bowl of iced soup dumplings in his left. There were already quite a few used tissues on the ground.

“It’s all about passion. Even in hot weather, our enthusiasm for hot pot remains undiminished!” freewebnove(l)

Lin Wu looked around the packed hot pot restaurant. Indeed, the patrons braving the high temperatures to enjoy hot pot were true friends and comrades!

Finally, after Lin Wu used up two boxes of tissues, the hot pot feast came to an end. Even Lin Wu, a Hunanese who could handle spicy food, found it challenging in this situation.

Back at home, all three of them found a place to lie down. Satisfied and full, they fell asleep shortly after.

“Bro, just wait in the car for me. I’ll go get the test results and come right back.”

“Alright, go ahead.”

Guo Yan hopped out of the car and quickly ran into the hospital.

By this time, it was already three in the afternoon. Originally, they had planned to sleep for an hour, but who knew they ended up sleeping for nearly two hours. If it weren’t for Lin Wu waking up in the middle, they might have slept until evening.

In no time, Guo Yan returned from the hospital with a bag in hand and jumped into the car.

ii

It’s so hot, bro, this is for you!” She handed the bag to Zhou Chao.

Zhou Chao took everything out and checked the test results. He found that all the indicators were excellent. Comparing them to the information he had found online, everything seemed to be in order.

“Okay, Lin Wu, let’s go to the People’s Armed Forces Department now.” With the medical checkup done, the only thing left was the political review, which was the part Zhou Chao was most confident about.

It took about ten minutes to drive from the hospital to the People’s Armed Forces Department. As soon as they arrived, they saw several people going in and out with forms in hand.

“Bro, are these people also applying to military academies?”

“I’m not sure; it’s possible. Some of them might be joining the military as well.”

“Oh.”

Zhou Chao asked one of the staff members for directions and, following the instructions, led the two of them to the office.

Perhaps it was late in the day, but apart from a few staff members, there were two or three young men in the office, asking some questions.

“Hello, is this where I can process the political review?”

“Well, have you brought the relevant certificates?”

“I have them all.” Zhou Chao promptly handed over Guo Yan’s documents and the materials provided by the school to the staff member.

The staff member took the materials and began to examine them.

Logging into the internal office software, the staff member began a preliminary check, which involved verifying the applicant’s family background and checking for any legal violations.

After entering Guo Yan’s name and ID number, the relevant information quickly appeared on the screen. When the staff member looked at the section about immediate family members, detailed information about Guo Yan’s parents was displayed.

“Hmm, her father works in the administrative department. Let me check the other relevant details,” the staff member muttered to themselves.

“Huh? What’s going on? Why can’t I open this?” When the staff member tried to open the information about another family member, they found that it wouldn’t open no matter how many times they tried.

“Manager Chen, could you please come and take a look? It seems there might be an issue with the system!”

Manager Chen heard the request and walked over. The staff member quickly stood up.

“What’s the situation?”

“Manager Chen, 1 just wanted to check some important information about her immediate family members, but I can’t open this one.” The staff member pointed to a person’s name on the screen.

Manager Chen followed the staff member’s gesture and saw that the name in question was “Zhou Chao..”
