Chapter 517 Chu Yan Returns
The next day, as soon as get out of class ended in the evening, Gu Yin and the other teachers left, and immediately packed her things and headed out of the classroom.
Chu Yan's plane will arrive in an hour, and she needs to go to the airport to pick someone up.
As soon as she got downstairs, her phone rang. Gu Yin glanced at it and saw it was an unfamiliar number. She answered it with some confusion.
"Gu Yin, it's me, Long Yu! Have you finished class yet? I'm downstairs in your teaching building in a blue car. Come over after class, and we'll go to the airport together to pick up Chu Yan!"
Gu Yin looked around and walked towards the blue car under the tree not far away.
"Is it the one under the tree?"
"Yes, that's right, hey, I see you! Just come over here!"
After hanging up the phone, Gu Yin walked for a minute and arrived at her car.
The car window rolled down, and Gu Yin looked down to see Long Yu, dressed in a sharp suit, looking exceptionally handsome and noble.
Long Yu greeted him with a smile, then opened the car door, but Gu Yin stopped him, saying, "No need to get out of the car."
After saying that, he opened the car door and got in.
"You can drive in here even if you're hungry?"
Long Yu started the car, turned around and laughed, "I know the principal and asked him to let me in. Your school is too far away. It would take forever to walk here! Besides, it's not convenient for me to ride a bicycle in this condition! So I just drove in."
Gu Yin nodded: "It's really inappropriate. If you ride your bike in like that, you'll definitely go viral on our school forum tonight!"
Long Yu shook his head: "No way, it's better to keep a low profile!"
When the car arrived at the school gate, Gu Yin asked the other driver to stop for a moment: "I'll be right back."
A short while later, Long Yu saw Gu Yin carrying a bouquet of roses.
Long Yu was full of sour grapes: "They even bought him flowers just to pick him up from the airport! Isn't Chu Yan being treated a bit too well?!"
Gu Yin placed the flowers on the back seat and said with a smile, "Of course, there should be flowers when picking someone up from the airport; it's part of the atmosphere!"
Long Yu started the car and sighed, "Ah! It's good to have someone thinking about you! I envy that kid!"
Gu Yin raised an eyebrow: "Want someone to care about you? That's easy, isn't it?"
Long Yu shook his head seriously, a rare occurrence: "It's really not easy. Many things have a price tag from the moment they're born. With a family like yours, it's practically impossible for me to be like you. I don't ask for my future wife to be exceptionally good; I just hope she shares the same values as me!"
After saying that, his serious face returned to a smile: "Don't you think I'm pathetic?"
Gu Yin shook her head, looked at the traffic ahead, and said softly, "No, although happiness comes in different forms, I think you are luckier and happier than 80% of the people in the world. Have you ever been to the countryside?"
Long Yu nodded: "I went there for two years."
After that, Gu Yin didn't say anything more. Anyone who has been to the countryside should know how people in remote and mountainous areas live. To say they live is an understatement; it's more accurate to say they are struggling to survive.
The children of high-ranking officials and privileged families know far more than she does; they have no need for her to enlighten them.
Long Yu also thought of those two years in the countryside and suddenly realized that he was being sentimental.
When they arrived at the airport, Chu Yan's plane had not yet arrived.
After finding a good parking spot, an announcement came over the loudspeaker when they arrived at the arrival gate.
Gu Yin took out her phone, took a picture of the location, and sent it to Chu Yan: "Long Yu and I are here. Just come out and walk this way!"
After a while, Chu Yan, wearing a black down jacket and a baseball cap, appeared in their field of vision.
Upon seeing Gu Yin, Chu Yan waved and took even wider strides. Before he could even speak, he stretched out his long arm and pulled Gu Yin into his embrace.
A minute later, he released Gu Yin, then took the scarf off his neck and put it around Gu Yin's neck, carefully putting it on and pressing it down.
He smiled and said, "Why did you come here? Didn't we agree that I would pick you up from school after I got off the plane and we would go out to eat? It's so cold, and you didn't even wear a hat or scarf."
Gu Yin handed him the flowers and said with a smile, "I wanted you to see me as soon as possible, so I came."
Chu Yan smiled and gently pinched her cheek: "I'm so happy! I'm happy to see you, and I'm so happy to receive the flowers. I'm especially happy."
"Cough cough cough! Have you forgotten that I'm here? Can't you consider my feelings?! I'm a living, breathing person right here!" Long Yu looked at the two of them, his teeth aching!
Chu Yan looked at the third wheel expressionlessly and sneered, "You're lacking in emotional intelligence. What are you doing here, an outsider, at our meeting and date? What, do you think it's too dark here, lacking in brightness?"
Long Yu chuckled and quickly went over to take Chu Yan's luggage.
"Look at what you're saying! I just missed Young Master Chu! It's been so long since we last met! Given our relationship, isn't it normal for me to pick you up from the airport?! Come on, come on, the car's over here!"
"They said they were here to pick you up from the airport, but where's the money? Did they come empty-handed?"
"I already showed off to my siblings by delivering flowers, so I'll be your driver today! You tell me where to go, and I'll go! Just pretend I don't exist! I'll try to be invisible!"
Gu Yin noticed that compared to their time at the hot pot restaurant, the two seemed much more familiar with each other this time, like friends who could joke around and talk about anything. Gu Yin thought that something must have happened during this period to change their relationship.
Sure enough, as soon as he got in the car, Chu Yan threw a file folder at Long Yu.
"Everything you wanted is inside. I'll take the car; you can take a taxi home yourself. If you want to stay, I don't want to see you, this third wheel!"
Long Yu took the file bag, looked at it, and seeing that it was what he wanted, he smiled and tossed the keys to Chu Yan: "Bring the car back to me tonight, I need it for work tomorrow! Bye! Have fun! Bye-bye!"
After saying that, Long Yu readily opened the door and left.
Chu Yan moved to the driver's seat, and Gu Yin sat in the passenger seat.
Once the car was on the road, Chu Yan offered a brief explanation.
"Some of our agricultural products, as well as some machinery, have been restricted from import by several foreign countries. Long Yu came to me and asked me for help. I contacted my mentor, who is from the United States but is also a capitalist. Although he won't help personally, I can use his connections."
Gu Yin asked in surprise, "Resolved?"
Chu Yan nodded: "It's over."
"This is a matter between nations. How did you resolve it?" Although China is a major grain-producing country, it still faces a food shortage due to its large population. Especially in the next ten years or so, when Gu Yin passed away in her previous life, the amount of grain that needs to be imported will increase significantly!
Chu Yanfeng said calmly, "I tried to be polite first, then resort to force. I asked the heads of those wealthy families for help, as my mentor's most outstanding disciple, to put pressure on the authorities to lift the restrictions. But they all refused. However, it didn't matter. My mentor's database contained the secrets of their families that couldn't be exposed. So I used those secrets to threaten them, and also left a message that my mentor was planning to short their country's economy. Then I didn't contact them again. When I was about to board the plane yesterday, I received the documents to lift the ban and orders for other agricultural products that allowed our country to export."
Gu Yin frowned in surprise: "You've offended so many big shots, are you safe?!"
Chu Yan shook his head: "My teacher once said in the circle that if his student had a problem in the United States due to human error, he would definitely investigate to the end, even if it brought a financial crisis to the whole country or even the world! I have a senior brother from another country who was framed by the upper echelons of the United States because of his outstanding talent and ability. After that, my teacher directly caused three companies controlled by the US government to go bankrupt and exposed all the information and secrets of that upper echelon. After that, no one dared to offend him anymore."
Gu Yin clicked her tongue in amazement: "Your teacher is so arrogant and amazing!"
Chu Yan chuckled: "He is indeed very arrogant, but he has the capital to be arrogant. His grandmother, mother, and maternal grandmother are all princesses from various countries, and they are the kind who have real power. He himself also has an inhuman talent in business. Basically, no one dares to offend him, so you don't need to worry about my safety. However, he has a really bad temper. When I first joined his team, I was often scolded because he thought I was a typical Chinese person, too mild-mannered and not ruthless enough. He didn't like me like that. But because I have good talent, he could only endure it and take me to various dangerous places. During my entrepreneurial stage, he set up a lot of disgusting obstacles for me, just to wear down my gentle nature. But he didn't succeed. He still hasn't given up. He's a stubborn old man."
Gu Yin turned to look at him. Perhaps Chu Yan's teacher had not failed. Gu Yin had also noticed this year. Apart from being the same Chu Yan when facing acquaintances, his gentle temperament was slowly becoming more aggressive when facing strangers. Perhaps he himself had not yet realized it.
The dramatic changes in a young person always come so suddenly. After he went from being aggressive to reserved, and then to having complete control over his emotions, the boy completely transformed into a successful and outstanding businessman who was no longer easy to understand.
"It sounds like you really like your advisor."
Chu Yan nodded: "He's a good person. If there's a chance in the future, I'll introduce him to you. You'll probably like him too."
Gu Yin smiled and nodded: "Okay!"
