Many taxis and some private cars by the roadside have started tying red ribbons, waiting to provide free rides for students on the day of the exam.

Education is the foundation of a country, and every nation places immense importance on its students—these are also the days when students receive the highest treatment.

Many students have come to check out the examination venues in advance.

More than ten years of hard study, all for this moment.

All hotels and guesthouses within five kilometers of the school have been fully booked.

Musen and Ming Yue are at the same examination venue, but it's in another district.

Going back and forth would be more than ten kilometers, and on the day of the exam, traffic is sure to be heavy; shuttling back and forth would be out of the question.

Both families were eating breakfast together, still discussing the preparations for the two children's exams.

"I see that the hotels in these areas are all booked; how about we book something a bit further away or find a small guesthouse to stay in?"

Musen's parents didn't expect that as soon as the exam venue was announced, all the hotels would already be full.

"That won't do; small guesthouses can't guarantee sanitary conditions. What if the child catches a cold, or the noise means they don't rest well? It could affect the exam."

As they were discussing, Ru Shuang smiled and spoke up.

"Don't worry; I've already booked in advance, right across from the examination venue."

"Didn't they say last night that everything was already full?"

Musen's mother asked.

Ru Shuang smiled and took many room cards out of her bag: "I booked rooms in hotels near several examination points half a month ago."

Looking at the stack of room cards.

Musen couldn't help but inwardly lament the damn power of money and the sense of security it brought.

His ex-mother-in-law was always thorough and full of a sense of security in her actions; Ming Yue's dominant CEO style later on was largely learned from her mother.

It's just that she learned it a bit askew.

"How much did all this cost..."

Musen's mother said a bit embarrassedly.

Ru Shuang laughed, "Don't worry about it, the hotels would be glad for me to cancel a room, and I might even make some extra."

Of course, she didn't care about this bit of money.

Musen's gaze turned to Ming Yue.

As a daughter, she was still green; if she had some of Ru Shuang's tactics, in his past life, he might have been even more firmly in her grasp...

Meanwhile, Ming Yue was also looking at those two room cards, seemingly pondering something.

After eating, Ru Shuang took them to see the hotel and the examination venue.

When they arrived, many parents had already brought their children over.

Actually, there's not much to see; after all, they can't enter the school, they can only check out the location map posted outside.

It was rare for Ru Shuang to come back for two days, so she took Musen's mother and Ming Yue out for some shopping and beauty SPA treatments.

Musen stayed home analyzing backend data, as these days many people were seeking to collaborate with him.

Several shops that had already tasted success were thinking of renewing their contracts.

And the offers were one higher than the other.

If Musen could seize the opportunity this summer, he could really earn his first big bucket of gold.

"Ding~"

A message popped up on his phone.

He Qiang: "The examination locations were announced today; I'm at No. 9 Middle School. Do you want to come and have a look with me?"

Musen: "There's not much to see; just make sure you have a room booked. The venue is only so large; you can't get lost."

In the heat of summer, it's better to lie down at home than to wander around.

Just then, another message popped up.

Nuannuan: "Musen, the teacher said the examination venues were announced today; do you think I should go check it out?"

Musen glanced at the message he had just politely declined his buddy and immediately replied, "Of course, you can check it out; it's important to familiarize yourself with the examination venue. How will you get there, do you need me to pick you up?"

"Yeah, sure!"

Nuannuan also replied cheerfully, adding a bunny emoji hugging a carrot and nodding its head.

As Musen changed clothes, he thought to himself.

His buddy is fast on his feet and could find his examination spot without going to the school.

But Nuannuan is in a wheelchair; how could she not familiarize herself with the examination venue a bit earlier?

It was all for the sake of what's right in his heart!

Xu Musen sauntered out of his house, and it didn't take long before he arrived at An Nuannuan's doorstep.

An Nuannuan had been waiting for a while, waving at him from inside the yard.

To his surprise, the one who opened the door was her younger sister.

This little girl liked to clutch her pear blossom wooden stick, and though she had opened the door, she still eyed him warily.

But this time, her big eyes glanced down at Xu Musen's hand, seemingly expectant.

However, seeing that his hands were empty, she immediately let out a disappointed humph.

"You're here."

Aunt Xiang walked out from the room and greeted Xu Musen.

"Hello, Auntie. The examination locations were announced today, and I wanted to go with Nuannuan to familiarize ourselves with the site."

"Nuannuan told me about it. Please, take good care of her and pay attention to safety on the way."

Aunt Xiang nodded with a smile.

Xu Musen turned to An Nuannuan, "Which examination room are you in?"

An Nuannuan took out her admission ticket and checked, "The Ninth Middle School."

Why does that sound so familiar?

Eh, isn't He Qiang's examination site also the Ninth Middle School?

"Alright, it's not far from here. We can just take the bus and be there quickly."

Xu Musen was about to accompany An Nuannuan to leave, but the little girl suddenly stood in their way.

Her fair little face was raised, cheeks flushed, "I want to go too!"

She walked over and clung to one of An Nuannuan's arms, pleading cutely, "Sister, you promised to play with me during your holiday..."

As she spoke, her bright eyes occasionally glanced at Xu Musen, "And I need to protect my sister from the bad guys."

Xu Musen looked up at the sky with a helpless smile.

The mind of a child is indeed very simple. When they were younger, they would cry if their mother didn't hold them.

Anyone who takes away the person they like is a bad guy.

An Nuannuan patted her head, "No, he's a good guy, actually."

"Sister, let me go out with you, please? I promise I'll behave."

Hope shone in An Nannan's eyes.

An Nuannuan was very fond of her younger sister and looked at Xu Musen.

"I don't mind," said Xu Musen with a smile, his gaze turning to Aunt Xiang.

"Then I'm leaving her in your care."

Even Aunt Xiang nodded in agreement.

It was rare for the two kids to be so eager to go out, they would probably have more fun with someone their own age.

Xu Musen looked at this mischievous little girl and somehow felt like he was taking care of a child... which was a bit of a headache.

Suddenly, a thought crossed Xu Musen's mind.

He grabbed his phone and sent a message to one of his good buddies.

"Qiang Zi, I've thought it over, and I can't bear to let you go alone. Come on, I'll accompany you to check out your examination site."

He Qiang replied promptly, "Cut the crap! I've seen the examination site list the teacher sent out An Nuannuan and I are at the same site. Are you over there trying to meet up with her and just making excuses to me?"

Xu Musen, "Would I do that?"

He Qiang, "Wouldn't you?"

Xu Musen, "Alright then, forget it. I actually have a young lady here and was thinking of inviting her over for a stroll."

A few seconds later.

He Qiang, "Bro! Wait for me, I'll be there in a bit."

Xu Musen chuckled.

After all, they were teenage boys, and it seemed their eternal fortitude to resist temptations wasn't quite there yet.

So, twenty minutes later.

The four of them met up at a milk tea shop near the Ninth Middle School.

He Qiang looked at An Nannan, who was happily sipping her milk tea.

Are we sure she's not a primary school student?

His already dark face grew darker.

He turned to look at his smiling buddy.

"This... This is the 'young lady' you were talking about?!"
