Chapter 365: People with too many tricks have become like sieves, right?
For Kang Yuanze, falling in love with someone was so sudden.
It had only been a year since his mother passed away, and with so much going on at home, he didn't think he would fall in love with anyone under those circumstances. But, he did.
When you fall in love with someone, you can't help but pay attention to her, get close to her, and want to talk to her, even if she is a taciturn person.
The more I get to know her, the more dazzling she seems to me, and the more I like her.
He knew that he was in unrequited love, but he didn't notice who she liked, perhaps because she was young, which meant that he had a chance.
But today, when she saw the boy named Han Zhengping, she became like a charged little motor, cheerful and full of energy.
She usually doesn't communicate much with her classmates in class. Although she is not taciturn, she is not the kind of girl who likes to talk particularly. But when she sees Han Zhengping, she is like a cheerful bird, chirping non-stop.
It was obvious that the two people knew each other very well, and their every move revealed their familiarity.
The whole yard was empty, just like his heart. After sitting for a while in the quiet yard where he could hear her breathing, he stood up, pushed his bicycle out, and went back to his home. The reason he came here today was to go home with her after school.
As he rode his bicycle past the door of Gu's house, he heard her cheerful laughter. It seemed that she was really happy.
The Gu family's yard is indeed very lively now. Not only has Han Zhengping returned, but Ye Chi and Zhang Zijun have also come for dinner. Moreover, Gu Sanjing will be resting tomorrow, so Gu Jianguo picked her up early in the morning.
The weather was hot and everyone was here today, so Gu Jianguo moved the large dining table from the restaurant to the yard. At this moment, the family was chatting and laughing around the table.
Zhang Zijun patted Han Zhengping on the shoulder and said, "You're in college now, you're not a kid anymore. You can't just drink soda today."
He still remembered the guy pouring soda into him.
Han Zhengping didn't respond, but looked at Gu Jianguo. Gu Jianguo was also happy today and waved his hand, saying, "Drink a little, but don't drink too much."
Han Zhengping smiled and said, "Okay, I'll drink some."
This interaction is no different from that between father and son.
Zhang Zijun: “”
This guy is so cunning, he must be like a sieve, right? As soon as he showed signs of trying to force him to drink, he went to find a big backer.
Ye Chi smiled when he saw this and whispered to Zhang Zijun, "Don't even think about competing with him for favor. You can't win."
Zhang Zijun glanced at Han Zhengping who was talking to Gu Jianguo, and whispered, "Find some time to get him drunk again, and you can come along then."
Ye Chi didn't say anything. Zhang Zijun didn't know whether he agreed or not, and cursed him in his heart as an old fox.
Gu Jianguo was telling Han Zhengping that Han Deyi and his team were planning to come to Kyoto to do business. "Your father wants to come to Kyoto to do clothing wholesale. I think he might as well become an agent for a few foreign brands. Although that would be more difficult in the early stages, it would have more room for development in the later stages."
Han Zhengping thought for a moment and asked, "What did my dad say?"
"Your dad said he'd consider it," Gu Jianguo said. "He might be worried about how to get a foreign brand. Actually, that's not difficult. Zijun has connections there, so we can just ask him to make some connections." In fact, Su Wenshan had repeatedly offered Han Deyi help with his business, but Han Deyi had always refused. Even if he said nice things, as long as the child was well, he didn't care. But in his heart, he still cared; after all, he had raised him for so many years.
"My dad said they will come to Kyoto in two days. I will have a good talk with him then." Han Zhengping felt that Gu Jianguo was right, but everything depended on his father's opinion.
Gu Jianguo patted his shoulder and said, "Your house needs to be cleaned up. I'll send someone over tomorrow."
Han Zhengping didn't bother to be polite and said, "Okay. I'll call my dad tomorrow to discuss which house to clean up."
The Han family bought more than one house in Kyoto.
As they were talking, the food arrived. A few days ago, Wang Yueju hired two nannies, both in their thirties and forties, who were very efficient at work and could cook well.
While eating, Gu Siqing asked Gu Sanjing who was sitting next to her, "When exactly is the National Games?"
Gu Sanjing swallowed what was in his mouth and said, "November 20th to 25th."
"Is the diving venue well-insulated?" Gu Siqing was a little worried. For a venue that large, she was worried the heating facilities wouldn't be very good.
"Staying warm shouldn't be a problem. Our current training ground is warm in winter, so the competition venue should be no problem at all," Gu Sanjing said as she ate a piece of watermelon. Gu Siqing then asked, "The competition for a spot in this competition was pretty fierce, wasn't it?"
Wherever there are people, there are rivers and lakes, not to mention athletes who are driven by competition. She was afraid that Gu Sanjing would be bullied. Of all the family members, she was the most simple-minded.
"It's been intense," Gu Sanjing said after taking a bite of watermelon. "Originally, the participants for this National Games had already been decided during the preliminaries, but yesterday the team announced that because the preliminaries were a long time away from the competition, they'd have to compete again. This competition will finally determine who will participate in the National Games."
Gu Siqing's novel-writing brain instantly conjured up a lot of insider trading and other things. She whispered, "Why?"
"I don't know the details, but I heard that he wasn't selected before and wanted another chance, coach."
Gu Sanjing didn't say anything next, but Gu Siqing understood instantly. She asked again, "Did it affect you?"
"No," Gu Sanjing said confidently, "Some people rely on connections, but ultimately it all comes down to actual ability."
Although she said this, Gu Siqing was still a little worried and said, "You still have to be careful and be on guard against others. If you get injured or sick, you won't be able to participate in the competition."
Gu Sanjing was stunned after hearing her words, then said, "I understand."
Although she was straightforward, she was not stupid at all. Competition on their team was fierce. Not only did they fight for qualification, but they also fought for the team's attention. If the head coach valued you, then many resources would be allocated to you.
In the national diving team, fairness is fair; everyone speaks for themselves based on their strength. To say it's unfair is to say there's some ulterior motive. Even divers need to be shrewd and have emotional intelligence.
"Is there anyone in your team who is dating?" Gu Siqing asked again.
She was worried that Gu Sanjing would be deceived into a relationship. She was almost sixteen, which was the age when love was easily stirred. But as a diving athlete, she only had a few years to strive for success. Gu Siqing thought it would be better not to waste it on a relationship.
Of course, she is different from San Jing. She has the soul of an adult, and Han Zhengping is their childhood friend, so they know each other well. Besides, she and Han Zhengping haven't made it clear!
