How do I make the Parent textlabel's Text to the exp value whenever it changes?
local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local exp = player.PlayerScripts:WaitForChild("Running script").exp
exp.Changed:connect(function(newValue)
script.Parent.Text = newValue
end)

Your Problem
When you reference the value, you're getting it from game.StarterPlayer.StarterPlayerScripts. That is not the location of the value inside the client. When the player joins, everything in StarterPlayerScripts is cloned into Player.PlayerScripts
Your code is correct :) you just need to reference the value correctly.
Code
This should be in a localscript.
local plr = game.Players.LocalPlayer;
--retrieve from plr.PlayerScripts
local exp = plr.PlayerScripts:WaitForChild("Running script").exp;
exp.Changed:connect(function(newValue)
script.Parent.Text = newValue;
end)
