Chapter 58 Chapter 58 A pair of cold hands gently covered...

After entering the classroom, Lu Ji could sense the glances of his classmates quietly falling on him.

His expression remained unchanged and he walked straight to his seat.

"Congratulations." Ye Chen said with a smile, "The second young master of the Lu family is finally yours."

Lu Ji pulled out the chair and sat down, looking at him calmly: "It was originally mine."

Hearing this, Ye Chen couldn't help but laugh out loud: "Why didn't I find you so interesting before? I thought you were a quiet person."

"I didn't expect you to actually beat Lu Ran and drive him out." Ye Chen got closer, "But you don't think that this is the end of the story, do you?"

"I don't know what specific means you used, but the Lu family couple is the most confusing. You can't guarantee that they will soften their hearts again one day."

At this point, Ye Chen asked loudly: "Class monitor, Lu Ran should not have dropped out of school, right?"

He Mingan was originally writing with his head down. He did not look up, and his writing did not stop for a moment. "Of course not. Xiao Lu's tuition has already been paid. The school will not ask him to drop out because of family reasons."

Ye Chen blinked at Lu Ji.

Lu Ji frowned slightly. He could see that the other party was just looking for trouble and wanted to use him as a gun.

"If he is really so shameless as to come to class, wouldn't that annoy you? It would be better to take advantage of the situation and kill him while he is ill..."

boom--

A pile of books hit the table with a noise. Ye Chen subconsciously looked back and saw Cheng Zishi looking at him coldly.

"Oh, the big star finally comes back to school, why does he have to do hard labor?" Ye Chen teased with a smile.

"It's better to do more than to be unable to control your tongue, isn't it?" Cheng Zishi sneered and began to distribute handouts to each table.

Ye Chen leaned back a little, pretending not to understand the implication of this sentence. He originally wanted to reach out to take it, but Cheng Zishi didn't even want to touch him and threw it directly on his desk.

When handing the lecture notes to Lu Ji, Cheng Zishi exchanged glances with him.

Lu Ji's eyes moved, he still remembered the temporary alliance with Cheng Zishi.

Is this look indicating that the next step should be left to the other party?

"Speaking of big stars, you should be very happy that Lu Ran has fallen." Ye Chen continued to talk, "After all, he has made an enemy of you."

After all, he was also present at Qi Ming's celebration party that day.

"I am loyal, right? I didn't say a word to Lu Ran. If that guy knew that he would offend you, he might just go all out and get rid of you in advance."

"Ye Chen." Cheng Zishi interrupted him directly and asked mercilessly, "Is it because Gu Yang is not in the class now that you are talking so recklessly?"

This sentence hit Ye Chen's sore spot. His face changed instantly and he looked at the other person uncertainly, trying to find some clues from that face.

Cheng Zishi curled the corners of his mouth coldly. He knew that Ye Chen was up to something. As long as Gu Yang was around, he would tuck his tail between his legs and remain silent.

Speaking of which, ever since Gu Yang started to display his magical powers, those people in the class that he originally disliked, including Shen Mingjun, Nie Ying and Lu Ran, all got their comeuppance, and he was regarded as a demon-locking tower.

"Okay." He Mingan finally stood up to enforce discipline, "Xiao Cheng, thank you for your hard work in moving the handouts. Everyone should take a look at them first. The head teacher will explain the details later."

"It's okay, just on the way."

Although it was obvious that he was trying to smooth things over, Cheng Zishi was still willing to give He Mingan this face. He snorted coldly, ignored Ye Chen, and sat back in his seat.

"Why did Gu Yang take a leave today?" Yu Bai asked curiously, "Are you sick?"

Although Gu Yang looks unhealthy, he is actually in good health and rarely catches a cold throughout the year.

"No, I just want to take a leave." He Mingan smiled helplessly.

Yu Bai clicked his tongue twice, revealing an understanding expression.

"He hasn't gotten up yet."

He Mingan blinked, put a finger to his lips, and made a gesture to him to keep quiet.

Gu Yang sneezed slightly. He had just climbed out of bed, changed his clothes, and was buttoning his clothes slowly.

Xiao Huang, who followed Uncle Huang up, couldn't help but say, "Second Young Master, are you catching a cold?"

"How could that be?" Gu Yang said seriously, "Someone must be talking about me behind my back."

Hearing such childish words, Xiao Huang curled the corners of his mouth.

Seeing that Gu Yang was almost done, Uncle Huang signaled with his eyes to the servant beside him to bring up the ironed suit.

The suit is smoky grey and is paired with a pure white shirt.

To prevent wrinkles, he wore shirt clips on his legs to keep them in place.

After looking at herself in the mirror for a while, Gu Yang felt that the outfit looked a bit dull, so she took out a pair of sapphire cufflinks from her jewelry box and put them on.

"How is it?" Gu Yang asked casually.

"Perfect, Second Young Master." Uncle Huang replied with a loving face.

Gu Yang knew it was useless to ask, so he turned around and his eyes fell on the cat that Xiao Huang was holding in his arms.

He stretched out his hands and wanted to hug the cat, but was afraid that the cat's hair would get on his clothes and affect his appearance, so he gave up and rubbed the cat's head lightly twice.

"The car has been arranged and can leave at any time."

The birthday gift that was expected to be given to Mr. Nie had already been transported there in advance using other vehicles, but it was obvious that Gu Yang didn't care about this issue. For him, it was already very difficult for others to arrive.

Speaking of which, he has attended a lot more banquets during this period, almost as many as he attends in a year.

Gu Yang thought silently in his heart that when he arrived at the scene, he was relatively early.

The birthday gift given by the Gu family was a jade carving, with sandalwood as the base and relying on the color of the jadeite itself, a sculptor was hired to carve it into a Maitreya Buddha lying on his back in the mountains.

Since his two sons gradually took up important positions in the group, Mr. Nie did not cling to power tightly and slowly began to retreat behind the scenes. In his spare time, he became fond of collecting cultural relics, so most of the gifts given to him by people around him catered to his preferences.

But this has nothing to do with Gu Yang. He is not very familiar with Mr. Nie, and his relationship with Nie Ying is even more difficult to describe.

"What? You came so early." Xie Wu, who also came with his brother, saw Gu Yang from a distance. He couldn't help but say, "You didn't take a special leave to rush here, did you?"

Gu Yang had a blank expression on his face. How could he be that boring?

When he was not sick, Xie Kai was a normal person. He even exchanged several words with Gu Yang before letting his brother go and play with Gu Yang.

"Originally, I was going to come with He Mingan, but he said he had to pick someone up and asked me to come first. I don't know who he was going to pick up." Xie Wu pulled Gu Yang to the dining table, picked up some pastries and started eating, "I'm starving."

"I know you definitely don't like to go to crowded places. Anyway, this kind of party has nothing to do with us, so we'll just stay aside and kill time...ah, this cake is too sweet."

Xie Wu had a cheerful personality to begin with, he leaned on the table and chattered on, not needing much response from Gu Yang.

While they were chatting, there was a noise not far away.

A woman accidentally bumped into Xie Kai's arms. She let out a soft cry and Xie Kai quickly supported her.

The woman took a few steps back, smoothed her messy hair with her fingers, then raised her head little by little and looked at the man in front of her with a pair of lovely almond-shaped eyes.

The woman was obviously not young anymore, but she had taken very good care of herself. Time had left no noticeable traces on her face, and her temperament was gentle and calm.

Xie Kai's eyes suddenly widened, and Xie Wu's eyes also widened.

The only difference is that Xie Kai was looking at the woman in front of him, while Xie Wu was looking at his resentful brother.

His brother's expression was so gentle, and his voice was obviously more restrained.

"Zhou, Zhou Qinqin?" Xie Wu stuttered and almost couldn't speak. He looked at the scene in front of him in horror, "Why is she here? Shouldn't Ying Jiayi put her..."

But after Ying Jiayi kicked away her son-in-law father and the second son-in-law who wanted to get close to her, it seems normal that the second son-in-law and his mother Zhou Qinqin have nowhere to go now...

So in the end he found his brother as his next buyer and made all the money.

There is nothing wrong with this logic.

After figuring this out, he suddenly smiled with relief.

What kind of big grudge are they?

On Xie Kai's side, Zhou Qinqin happened to receive a call from her son and turned around to answer it.

"Hello? Ah Zhou? Mom is still out doing something. Just heat up the food in the fridge and eat it yourself."

"Yeah, it's just the stuff in the refrigerator. You can just put it in the microwave..."

Xie Kai's eyes suddenly became deep, staring at the woman's slim back and slender neck.

There is actually a child, this is simply...

To be honest, he just likes this.

No one knows a brother better than his own brother. Xie Wu was numb and he didn't even dare to look at his brother's eyes at the moment.

The most important thing was that Gu Yang read out a passage without any emotion about how the two brothers, after having all their properties taken away, walked aimlessly in the snow on a windy and snowy night without even a down jacket.

After reading it, Gu Yang leaned over to his ear and whispered, "I think your brother may have a romantic relationship recently, and it's that woman."

This reminder was inexplicable, but Xie Wu, who knew the previous situation, was still a little touched.

Gu Yang actually reminded him, is this caring about him?

But seeing that if he didn't take action, his brother might have already thought of what to name their child, he rushed forward without hesitation.

"What's wrong with Xiao Xie? Why are you in such a hurry?" He Mingan, who arrived late, walked up to Gu Yang and asked

Gu Yang didn't expect that Xie Wu would take his words so seriously. He shook his head.

But He Mingan only took a glance and roughly knew what happened. He did not ask about it anymore, but said with a smile: "Look who I brought here."

Gu Yang looked back and found that it was Song Yinxing.

He obviously didn't expect the other party to appear here, and his expression looked a little surprised.

He Mingan patted his shoulder and said, "I still have to go to Mr. Nie's place. Please do as you please."

After He Mingan left, Song Yinxing was left alone with Gu Yang and felt a little awkward. After all, he could still clearly remember Gu Yang's hurried departure yesterday.

"Why are you here?" Gu Yang asked.

"He Mingan invited me here, saying that we are all classmates and I can come to support my classmate's grandfather's birthday." Song Yinxing felt ridiculous when he said this. It might be okay if it was someone else, but the person was Nie Ying.

He also didn't know what the deeper meaning of He Ming'an calling him over was, but as the only person who could dominate the fate of the Nie father and son, if he wanted to deal with Nie Ying, he naturally had to start from this aspect.

What's more, Gu Yang is also here.

It is impossible for his experience to stop at the age of eighteen. When encountering this kind of thing, the first thing he thought about subconsciously was how to make amends.

Xie Wu on the other side had already rushed over in one step and pushed his brother three miles away, instantly interrupting the gradually heating up atmosphere between the two sides.

Xie Kai frowned and was about to explode, but when he saw that the man was his brother, he forced himself to hold it back. However, the interest he had just aroused was almost gone.

Zhou Qinqin's face turned unhappy. She knew there was no hope today.

"It's too noisy here, let's go somewhere else." Gu Yang pulled Song Yinxing's sleeve, motioning him to go out with him.

Gu Yang opened the door very skillfully and walked out of the hall, then walked around the corridor and came to a secluded room.

Song Yinxing looked at Gu Yang's back as he was pulling him forward, and felt that the other person acted as if nothing had happened, as if he had already forgotten what happened that day.

Gu Yang sat down on the sofa and leaned lazily on the backrest as if he had no bones.

Song Yinxing was just about to sit down next to him when he heard a noisy conversation outside.

Song Yinxing immediately recognized that one of the voices was Nie Ying's.

He frowned, obviously not wanting to confront Nie Ying in such an occasion.

"Is there any other way out?" he asked in a low voice.

Gu Yang naturally didn’t know. He just asked the waiter in advance about where he could rest when he came.

He obviously also heard Nie Ying's voice outside. After looking around, he stood up, opened the cupboard door behind him, bent over, pulled Song Yinxing in, and then closed the door.

Song Yinxing didn't want to confront Nie Ying right now, but he also didn't think he needed to hide from her.

Just as he was about to speak, he saw in the faint light coming in through the crack in the door, Gu Yang's mouth corners slightly raised, and he looked a little excited.

Like a child who has found a perfectly suitable hiding place during a game of hide and seek.

Song Yinxing knew that Gu Yang was in a bad mood, and could only helplessly join in his mischief.

The door outside was kicked open with a bang, and Nie Ying was obviously in a bad mood when she came in. The followers on both sides tried to make her happy, but the results were quite mediocre.

Nie Ying had just been severely scolded by his grandfather a few days ago because of something at school. Even Nie Runhua had been demoted from his position. He was already upset, and at this birthday party, a bunch of people followed the trend and praised his brother's family, which made Nie Ying even more unhappy.

But no matter how unhappy he was, he didn't dare to chirp, for fear that someone on the other side of the wall might hear him.

"Come to think of it, I just saw Song Yinxing from Class 10, brought in by He Mingan." One of the sharp-eyed followers said. He also knew that this was the time to provide Nie Ying with an outlet for her emotions.

Upon hearing this, Nie Ying sneered.

"He Mingan brought all kinds of people in here. What does he think this place is?"

"That's right. How could that poor guy Song Yinxing have the qualifications to set foot here? It's really lowering his class." The follower echoed.

"He was so lucky to be admitted to our school, do you really think he is in the same class as us?" Nie Ying's resentment grew stronger as she spoke, as if she wanted to vent all the anger she had during this period. "With his gambling father, a bailiff... and a short-lived mother who won't live long, how can he achieve anything?"

Song Yinxing listened calmly. He had heard similar insults countless times before, and it was impossible for him to be upset by such things, let alone feel sad.

But at this moment, a pair of cold hands gently covered his ears.

Gu Yang was blocking the sound for him.

In the dim room, he couldn't see the other person's face clearly. The faint light through the crack in the door could only outline a rough outline.

Gu Yang covered his ears but stared at him.

His heart began to beat faster.

After scolding Song Yinxing, Nie Ying still felt that it was not enough, so she scolded Gu Yang as well: "And Gu Yang, he is always arrogant in front of me, I don't know where he gets the confidence from, isn't he just a bastard who doesn't even know the identity of his own father?"

The moment he heard that sentence, Song Yinxing's brain had no time to react, and his hands subconsciously covered Gu Yang's ears.
