Chapter 261 - College Entrance Examination Came Out
Having shed his hesitation, Jiang Hao quickly scaled the mountain and found his way back to the main road in the dark.
Once he confirmed the coast was clear, he retrieved his vehicle from the System Space.
Then, after slipping into a fresh set of clothes, he drove back home.
Back in Jiang Village, Jiang Hao spent a few days practicing with the Old Master and his younger brother, Jiang Jingyi, before heading to Jiang Daloong's to collect a debt.
He also used some of the spiritual materials he had gathered from the primeval forest to prepare a medicinal feast.
This served a dual purpose: laying a strong foundation for his brother Jingyi and lending a helping hand to the Old Master.
Time flew by during his stay in Jiang Village, and with college entrance exam results due soon, Jiang Hao decided it was time to head back to Tianhee City.
?Early that morning, at the edge of Jiang Village, Jiang Hao rolled down his car window and waved goodbye to his sister and the others.
Then he set off, driving straight for Tianhee City.
Arriving in Tianhee City around noon, he was just in time for lunch with Mrs. Jiang.
Post-lunch, Jiang Hao phoned Xue Zixi for a meet-up.
Seated across from each other in a private room at the Heavenly-Mansion Tavern, Xue Zixi greeted him with a warm smile.
?”What brings Mr. Jiang to my neck of the woods today?” she asked.
Jiang Hao returned the smile and, reaching behind, handed her a small package. “Miss Xue, here are the super vegetable seeds you requested. Feel free to inspect them!”
Xue Zixi, visibly delighted, quickly accepted the package. “There's no need to check. I trust Mr. Jiang completely. I'll transfer the remaining payment right away!”
?Jiang Hao simply smiled in response.
Moments later, as Xue Zixi made a phone call, Jiang Hao's phone chimed. He checked it to find his account 40 million richer.
Looking up at Xue Zixi, his smile broadened, and he reached out in a gesture of friendship.
“Miss Xue, it's been a pleasure working with you!”
“The pleasure is all mine!”
After exchanging pleasantries, as Jiang Hao was about to take his leave, something suddenly occurred to him.
He paused mid-stride and turned to Xue Zixi.
“Miss Xue, may I ask a favor of you?”
Xue Zixi looked at him with a hint of surprise.
“Of course, Mr. Jiang. What can I do for you?”
Without any hesitation, Jiang Hao explained his request.
“In a few days, I'm planning to host a family dinner at the Heavenly-Mansion Tavern. I'd like to cook a few dishes myself to share with them.”
Before Jiang Hao could continue, Xue Zixi was quick to respond.
“Rest assured, Mr. Jiang. Just let me know when, and I'll coordinate with the kitchen staff personally.”
“Thank you so much, that means a lot to me!”
“And if you're available that day, Miss Xue, I would be honored if you could join us. I'd like to extend my gratitude for all your support.”
“Mr. Jiang, you're too kind! It would be my pleasure to attend. Count me in!”
After finalizing the details with Xue Zixi, Jiang Hao headed home.
Later, he pondered for a moment before reaching out to Soong Wan with an invitation, and he didn't forget to include his parents as well.
This time, he intended to use the finest spiritual ingredients he had gathered from the primeval forest to prepare a medicinal feast as a token of appreciation for his family and friends.
Time flew by, and before long, two days had passed and the college entrance exam results were released.
?At the Jiang residence, Jiang Hao was seated at the computer desk, his father, mother, and sister Jiang Zixuan gathered behind him, all eyes fixed on the screen.
Jiang Hao navigated to the results website, entered his details as instructed, and input his examination number.
?With a final click to confirm, the whole Jiang family held their breath in anticipation.
