Chapter 95: Encounter with Scum

"You two must take care of yourselves."

Sending off these two beloved former students onto the train, Gu Kaige bid farewell to Ning Xiaobei and Fan Xia with reluctance.

Fan Xia shoved his suitcase filled with dried bamboo shoots, sweet potatoes, tea oil, and tea leaves under the seat and couldn't wait to ask Ning Xiaobei, "What does it mean that he can only work in extracurricular education for 16 years? Only 16 years? Can't it be longer?"

Calculating on his fingers, it was the end of 2003 now. Even if they started counting from 2004, 16 years would be until the end of 2020.

"Does that mean after 2020, the college entrance examination will be canceled? Can we still have the privilege of direct admission to top universities after achieving comprehensive well-off society?" Fan Xia suddenly had a whimsical idea, wishing he were born a dozen years later.

"Stop dreaming. I just said it casually. Whether you listen or not is up to him," Ning Xiaobei thought to himself that even sixteen years later, there would still be the college entrance examination. This year's examination coincidentally encountered an epidemic just like their year.

Regardless of whether Gu Kaige listened or not, Fan Xia would definitely listen. After all, Ning Xiaobei was a master at predicting the exam questions, their little Zhuge Liang.

In this exam, Ning Xiaobei "predicted" the ancient Chinese and essay topics for Chinese language, as well as the last two major questions for mathematics. If it weren't for his last-minute intensive review before the exam, and his targeted repeated practice with himself, Lele, and Yangyang, they would definitely not have achieved such good results in this exam.

Ning Xiaobei shook his head. He couldn't directly say that in the following year, all those educational institutions that were still sponsoring major TV shows during the Spring Festival would collapse, and even well-established English training centers like New Oriental would not be able to sustain themselves and would have to switch to other businesses.

Although Gu Kaige still loved the education cause, he couldn't return to the affiliated high school no matter what.

He said he would go to Hangzhou, Ningbo, and Shaoxing after the New Year to look for opportunities. Now that parents have money in their pockets, they want to provide better education for their children. In the face of fierce competition, they want their children to at least step into the threshold of university, if not lead the pack. Anyway, he had a skill, so he wasn't afraid of not finding a job.

As for love...

"Let's leave it to fate. In this lifetime, I fell in love with two people in total, and both results were heart-wrenching. I'm tired."

Gu Kaige was deeply hurt, and only heaven knew when he would recover.

After finishing the call with Ning Jianguo, Ning Xiaobei returned to his seat and nudged the drowsy Fan Xia.

"My dad asked us to go directly to my grandmother's house in Shanghai. Tomorrow, some relatives from Suzhou are coming to Shanghai to visit my grandmother, and we'll accompany her niece and nephew to various places in Shanghai for the next few days."

Ms. Jian still had some relatives in Suzhou, but they were all distant relatives. Among the older generation, they had either passed away long ago or had great-grandchildren. The ones coming tomorrow were her younger cousin's grandson and two great-granddaughters. The older one is in junior high school, and the younger one is in fifth grade. They're all coming to Shanghai to play during the winter vacation.
