Chapter 348: Chapter 348: The Scheming Master Drove Away the Imaginary Rival!
The meal was filled with laughter, except for Gu Yuzhi, who kept a straight face, full of concerns.
After the meal, Gu Qiusha asked Bao Gucheng, "Mr. Bao, just now my brother mentioned letting Xi Chansha return to take over the company. I feel there’s no rush. Let him gain more experience outside. I can hold things down at home, no problem. But since you have students all over the world, if you hear any news about jade resources, please give our Xi Chansha some advice to help him out."
Bao Gucheng nodded, "It would be an honor, I won’t let you down."
Gu Qiusha grew even more fond of this modest and polite young man, who looked perfect from every angle.
He has great manners, a good temper, excellent knowledge, and even looks so good!
After dinner, Bao Gucheng and Zuzi returned to the bedroom to "study."
This time, Gu Qiusha firmly stopped Gu Yuzhi from disturbing them, "Brother, tomorrow’s the last day of the exams, let the kid have one more go at it. Come on, let’s watch TV!"
She then shouted upstairs, "Mr. Bao, I’ve tidied Zuzi’s room next door for you to stay the night, don’t be shy."
Gu Yuzhi: "...!"
What, stay over?
Sha Sha didn’t even invite me to stay over!
The taste of ginger pig’s trotter soup, sour and lingering, filled his mouth again.

Upstairs bedroom.
The little game of planting strawberries continued with endless enthusiasm...
But Bao Gucheng found that continuing to kiss like this was torturous for him. It took immense willpower to keep himself to just the "kissing" part of the instruction and not indulge in any other "optional actions." How cruel!
As a result, the sound of running cold water from Zhuzi’s bathroom echoed several times...
In the late hours of the night.
The young woman, who had absorbed all the spiritual energy, was finally coaxed to sleep.
Bao Gucheng got up quietly.
His phone was full of missed calls.
He put on his coat, buttoned up his suit one by one, and looked back at the young woman on the bed.
He leaned down, tucked her in with a small blanket, and left a cool, reluctant kiss on her forehead, "I’ll wait for you in the Imperial City."
He gently pushed the door and left the room.
The plane cruised through the night sky with turbulence, and although he was in the aircraft, it felt like he left something behind—on the young woman’s bed...
Bao Gucheng remained silent for a long time, then swiped open his phone and dialed a number: "Let Xi Chansha’s company win the contract for the jade mine in Continent A. The condition is that the company manager has to personally oversee the mining on site."
No matter whether that brother has any improper intentions towards the young woman, the priority is to send him away, the farther the better.
No one can say sibling affection is impossible. Gu Yuzhi and Gu Qiusha are living examples. Over time, affection may grow.
Wei Yang asked in confusion, "Mr. Bo, why have Xi Chansha go so far to secure a contract?"
Bao Gucheng casually replied, "I promised Miss Gu to look after him."
Wei Yang was still completely puzzled, "... But, sir, don’t we also have jade mines in the Empire?"

Last day of the exams!
Today, parents were more frantic than ever, not only following traditional customs by wearing red and carrying green, bearing bananas and sugarcane, but also inspired by Bao Gucheng, each of them carrying a sunflower to send off their children!
Outside the school was a sea of swaying sunflowers!
The East Sea Class entered the classroom with laughter.
They found Wang Xin had arrived particularly early today, being the first one sitting at his desk.
Wang Xin, known for his competitiveness, was expected by everyone, having been embarrassed by getting kicked out of the exam room yesterday. Arriving first today suited his character, so no one was surprised.
The preparatory bell rang.
The proctor reminded, "If you need to use the restroom or get hot water, do it quickly."
Some brought their own water bottles, but quite a few who forgot rushed to the hallway water dispenser to fill a paper cup.
Wang Xin remained still with a gloomy expression.
Xi Rubao tapped her forehead, "Oh no, I left my water bottle in the car. I’ll get water for you, sis!"
Zuzi smiled faintly, "Wait a moment."
Her slender fingers formed a quick hand sign in the air, "Go on."
