Back to the Past: The Rise of the False Heiress Marrying the True Tycoon - Chapter 729
Chapter 729: So Artsy
Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
The First Bilingual Primary School was indeed a prestigious institution in the city, demanding more from its students in every aspect.
The Su brothers, Su Bing and Su Li, were to attend this school, and the most novel change they faced was the requirement to wear a school uniform every day.
The night before, they had placed their freshly washed and dried uniforms by their pillows, ready to be worn the next day.
After finishing their morning routines, the brothers met on the first floor, taking a moment to appraise each other.
Su Li, from the bottom of his heart, complimented his brother, “Bro, you’ve always had a cool vibe, but now with this uniform, you look even cooler. Beyond cool, there’s a chilly, trendy feel to you. You look great!”
On any other day, Su Bing would have paid little attention to such comments. However, considering the events of the previous day, he returned the compliment after looking at Su Li, “You look good too, with a scholarly air about you. A kind of reserved handsomeness, even better than before.”
Caught off guard by the compliment, Su Li’s cheeks reddened visibly. Just then, their mother descended from the upper floor. Both Su Bing and Su Li saw her and exclaimed in unison, “Mom, you look so stylish today!”
Their mother, Gu Zi, was also heading to work at the newspaper office that day. Wanting to make a good impression on her first day, she had taken extra care with her appearance to match the image of the newspaper office. She had tied up her usually loose hair with a small checkered scarf and wore a simple silver necklace around her neck.
She was dressed in a white shirt paired with a vest sweater, light blue jeans, and white shoes. With a crossbody bag slung over her shoulder, she exuded the aura of a literary young woman, just as her sons had described – stylish!
Gu Zi looked at her sons, already dressed and with their school bags on their backs. The school uniforms were indeed quite attractive. The uniforms were primarily white and sky blue, with a white short-sleeved shirt adorned with a small patch of sky blue at the collar. The trousers were entirely sky blue, paired with white sneakers, giving off a youthful vibe.
As it was still early spring and the temperature was relatively low, the brothers had also brought their school uniform jackets. These were not worn at the moment but were placed on the back of the sofa. The jackets were also primarily sky blue, with small patches of white as decoration. They were quite eye-catching, and Gu Zi noticed them at a glance.
Looking at them, Gu Zi could imagine how good they would look when worn. She didn’t hesitate to compliment, “Su Bing looks handsome and dashing, while Su Li looks lively and spirited. Both of you are our family’s handsome boys. Come on, let’s have breakfast. After eating, I’ll drop you off at Grandma Gao’s place!”
Gu Zi went to the kitchen to heat up some pastries, pairing each with a bottle of milk, a boiled egg, and a small apple. The breakfast was nutritionally balanced.
After breakfast, Gu Zi went upstairs to carry the still-sleeping Su Le, and they all headed to Grandma Gao’s house.
At Grandma Gao’s doorstep, the driver and car were already prepared to take the children to school.
Seeing Gu Zi arrive with the children, Grandma Gao warmly waved them over, “Gu Zi, leave the children with us and go to work with peace of mind. I’ll take care of Lele. Is the little girl still sleeping? Gao Ming, watch where you’re going, you might bump into Auntie!”
While Grandma Gao was still greeting them, Gao Ming ran over to Gu Zi, pushing past Su Bing and Su Li. His eyes widened in surprise, “Wow, Aunt Gu Zi, you look so artistic today, just like someone on TV!”
Su Li proudly told Gao Ming, “My mom always looks like someone on TV. My mom is the prettiest because she’s my mom…”
Su Bing silently smirked, thinking his brother sure knew how to flatter himself. Gao Ming also wanted to roll his eyes, but he held back as Su Li was, after all, his sworn brother.
Gu Zi handed the sleeping Lele to Grandma Gao, thanked her, and then rode off on her bicycle.
The newspaper office was not far from there, and cycling was a suitable mode of transportation. Since there were two bicycles at home and the children didn’t use them often for school, Gu Zi decided to use one regularly.
Su Bing, Su Li, and Gao Ming waved at Gu Zi for a long time before getting into the car one by one.
By this time, Grandma Gao’s eyes were filled with the little girl in her arms. She casually instructed the driver, “Take them to school and drop them off at their classes. I won’t be going. If I ride in the car, my little Lele won’t be able to sleep well.”
