Chapter 39 - 2.18
Today was an important day for every high school diploma who had just graduated from their high school. Because today was the national examination for college entrance or Gaokao. Duan Biya drove Junze and Yunyu to the exam site, which was the national university located in the heart of the city.
"Ah, I can’t imagine the moment when my son graduated from high school with a high score and also took the Gaokao," Duan Biya said half-jokingly, "Tell me, what do you want? A new car? A new house? A new land? I will give it to you!"
"I want to have a formal engagement with Yunyu after my test," Junze said clearly. There was no doubt in his voice. He held Yunyu’s hand tightly.
Duan Biya glanced at Yunyu who also confirmed his wish, "If aunty allows it, then I will marry Junze after university graduation."
Duan Biya stared at these pairs of young lovebirds who were taking care of each other. Yunyu’s presence in Junze’s life changed many things, from his study, his attitude, and his life goal. Duan Biya was assured that Junze would be able to take care of Duan’s family business after she retired.
Meanwhile, for Yunyu, Junze’s presence gave him security and the love that he never felt before as an orphan. His quality of life also significantly increased, because Junze would always take Yunyu every single day to eat delicious and healthy food.
Duan Biya rubbed their heads and said, "Of course, if you two want to get engaged after enrolment, then so be it. I will hold a grand engagement ceremony for you two! Let the world know that my son has an amazing fiancée!"
Junze was wholly satisfied with his mother’s answer. He was afraid that he would need to take drastic measures to assure his mother about his goal to marry Yunyu, but his mother was very supportive of this, unlike his father who would still demean him and Yunyu, no matter how much achievement he got.
It didn’t matter anyway. Junze had a thousand ways to give Yunyu happiness without the help of his father.
