Chapter 44 Chapter 44 He and Gu Yang are not ordinary tutors...
When he heard this, Song Yinxing's eyes widened slightly and his expression looked a little surprised.
After throwing out this chip, Gu Qingxu stopped talking. Talking too much would only make him lose face. He just looked at the other person with a half-smile.
He checked Song Yinxing's background. His family was a mess and his father was a gambler, like a bottomless pit.
This is easy to deal with. It can be solved by paying money.
"I don't understand what you want to say." Song Yinxing said coldly, "If you have nothing else to say, I'm going back."
"Did you see the doll when you came to our house the other day?"
Seeing him turn around and want to leave, Gu Qingxu said nonchalantly: "When Gu Yang wanted to raise a cat, the family hired a nanny to look after the cat and paid her 8,000 yuan a month."
Song Yinxing was silent. When the cat was mentioned, he recalled the scene of that day.
But he didn't have any idea because he didn't have such a strong desire to control other people's money.
Gu Qingxu had no other intention in bringing up the past. He didn't care about hiring a nanny for the cat. If Gu Yang wanted to keep the cat, then he could keep it. It didn't matter.
He still had a polite smile on his face, and recalled in his mind the way his father usually spoke to others. He imitated that tone, wanting to completely suppress the restless heart of the man in front of him.
"Anyway, as long as Gu Yang is happy, it's fine for us to raise the cat until it dies of old age. It doesn't cost much."
"But this should be a considerable expense for you. After all, your family has no labor force and no stable income."
He spoke slowly, and when he came to the last sentence, he finally stopped hiding his intentions.
"After Gu Yang graduates from high school, we will probably send him abroad to study art. He is interested in jewelry, which happens to be the field our group is involved in. If he is willing, he can join the company as an art director, or I can invest money to let him open his own studio."
Yep, none of that matters.
He didn't mind keeping Gu Yang, as long as she could behave herself and be his vase.
after.
Song Yinxing was distracted for a moment.
He thought about his past life.
For a long time, Nie Ying didn't bother him again.
His nerves did not relax because of this, but became even more tense, for he was afraid that there was a bigger conspiracy waiting for him.
Until one day, he saw the news push.
The president of Feili Jewelry died in a car accident.
Speaking of Feili Jewelry, it is a jewelry brand founded during the Republic of China. It has survived all the ups and downs and has a very deep foundation. When it was first established, it mainly dealt in jadeite. Later, with the continuous expansion of its scale and the demand for innovation of the times, it gradually expanded its business scope to other types of jewelry.
Feili Jewelry is only a small part of the Gu Group that is exposed to the public. If you specifically check, you will find that it has many product lines rooted in other fields.
Therefore, under that piece of news, many people posted messages to discuss the matter, focusing on the untimely death of the former head of the Gu family, and the Gu family behind him.
Gu Qingxu is dead.
It took Song Yinxing a few seconds to digest this information. After all, to him, this was not someone who only existed in the news.
They attended the same middle school and because of Nie Ying, they would see each other from time to time.
Unlike the moody Nie Ying, Gu Qingxu seemed to be much more well-mannered and well-spoken. Every time he met him, he would greet him with a smile and had never said anything humiliating to him.
But Song Yinxing knew.
That's just because I look down on you, so I think it's a waste of time to say one more word.
He flipped through the post and took a few glances.
Some people speculated that this was not an accident at all, but man-made. To put it simply, he smelled the scent of a power struggle among the wealthy families.
This statement is not groundless.
It is impossible for a wealthy family like the Gu family to keep any information from the outside world.
In addition to the current person in power, the Gu family also has an eldest son.
The eldest son has never appeared in public, and there is very little information about him on the Internet. We only know that he attended a very famous aristocratic high school in the country, went abroad directly after graduation, and did not hold any important position in the group after returning.
The biggest topic surrounding the eldest son is his suspicious life experience. After all, bloody gossip is the public's favorite.
Some people also speculated whether the next person to take the throne would be this controversial eldest son, after all, he is the only one left in the main branch of the Gu family.
But the direction of events was beyond everyone's expectations.
Not long after, Feili Jewelry was acquired by Nie Group after undergoing a large number of equity changes.
Selling off such an old brand that accounts for more than 30% of the group's revenue and has considerable influence both at home and abroad is a rather puzzling move. The Nie family's unexpected and strong intervention makes people think more.
But at this time, the Gu family no longer had anyone who could control the situation. The side branches all had ulterior motives and only wanted to seek benefits for themselves from this turmoil.
It was certainly not a good thing that Nie Ying had time to see him again, but Song Yinxing was only concerned with protecting himself at the time and had no time to ask about matters related to the Gu family.
He had no good feelings towards Gu Qingxu in the first place, so he would not put himself in a more disadvantageous situation out of curiosity.
More than a week later, Nie Ying told him a piece of news.
Gu Yang is dead.
For fear that he didn't know who Gu Yang was, Nie Ying kindly explained to him that he was the young man who talked about the SM club in the club during the first few days when they met again.
"You won't forget him, right? He did help you out, otherwise you would have really kneeled down and licked the floor clean." Nie Ying said in a joking tone.
It has been nearly a year since that day, and so many things have happened during this period.
It was not known what started with what, but Nie Ying's attitude towards him slowly changed. His temper had been tempered by the ups and downs of his experience in the business world, and after she stopped using those insulting words, her occasional attitude seemed to treat him as an old friend.
Song Yinxing just looked at Nie Ying coldly, as she showed no shame or remorse for what happened in the past.
He does not have Stockholm syndrome, nor is he so mean as to be grateful just because someone in a higher position shows him a little kindness.
He remembered every scar his attacker had inflicted on him.
It is also because of this that he is eager to keep even a little light shining in the darkness.
He asked Nie Ying how that man died.
"She committed suicide by cutting her wrists in her own bathtub. When she was found, her body was already completely cold."
Why did Gu Yang commit suicide?
Is it because of Gu Qingxu’s death? Or is it because the Gu family is in continuous decline?
But for some reason, Song Yinxing always felt that the reason was not so straightforward.
He thought again of what Gu Yang said in the room that day.
"So do you understand? Don't think that just because you studied in the same school as him, you are qualified to stand by his side. You have never been from the same world." Gu Qingxu made the final conclusion with cruel words.
Song Yinxing lowered his head, and his overly long hair made it difficult to see the expression on his face.
Gu Qingxu looked at him with a smile, very satisfied with the attitude he showed at the moment.
He was about to say something else when he heard the sound of footsteps coming towards him from afar.
Gu Qingxu turned around and saw who was coming.
Ying Jiayi.
"Isn't this Gu Qingxu? What are you doing in the senior class?"
The girl with long black hair asked calmly. Compared to the young lady who could be seen through at a glance in the past, her temperament is now obviously much calmer.
Gu Qingxu just smiled and said nothing.
He didn't know why he couldn't come to the senior class.
Ying Jiayi's intention to protect Song Yinxing is quite obvious. She and Gu Yang are classmates, so it goes without saying who she is doing this for.
"Isn't this Senior Ying Jiayi? It's been a long time." After weighing the pros and cons, he finally chose to give Ying Jiayi this face. He smiled and said, "It seems that your family affairs have been almost resolved. Congratulations."
He has been paying attention to the affairs of the Ying family these days. Liu Chaoyin was kicked out of the house and is about to face legal proceedings. The Ying Group is now managed by Mr. Ying again.
If nothing unexpected happens, Ying Jiayi should be the first person in their generation to take over the family business.
"I have something to talk to Senior Song about. We are almost done now, so I will go back first."
Anyway, he had said almost everything he needed to say, so Gu Qingxu simply withdrew from the matter. He just left with a message: "My words always count. Come find me when you figure it out."
Song Yinxing raised his head and looked at Gu Qingxu's leaving figure with a thoughtful look.
"What did Mr. Gu say to you?" Ying Jiayi asked from the side.
"Nothing." Song Yinxing shook his head, unwilling to say more, "Thank you for helping me out."
He knew Ying Jiayi, although he had never met her in school in his previous life. But later he heard from Nie Ying's group of friends that Ying Jiayi married the wrong person and her marriage was a mess.
This marriage seemed to be arranged by her father. The man had no background, but he immediately took up an important position after joining Ying Group.
Her husband was someone Song Yinxing knew, Yu Zhou. They were in the same class in junior high school.
She gave birth to a girl as her first child, and while she was still in the recovery period, her mother-in-law, who favored boys over girls, asked her to get pregnant again because she absolutely did not want her son to have no descendants. Although only this one story was leaked, it gives us a glimpse of what was going on.
Everyone present found it incredible. How could a son-in-law and a mother-in-law without any family background dare to be so presumptuous to the eldest daughter of the Ying family even if Mrs. Ying had passed away?
Song Yinxing had heard from his deskmate that the Ying family was recently in the process of getting a divorce and was going to kick out the son-in-law they had brought in earlier.
It's different here too.
Since he remembered everything about his previous life, he found that many things had changed.
Shen Mingjun and Ding Ziyu were both expelled from school, Nie Ying was revealed to be the nanny's son, and the truth about the Lu twins was also revealed.
Who changed these things?
...Gu Yang?
If that’s the case, can he also change his own destiny?
Ying Jiayi looked at Song Yinxing, who was keeping his head down and saying nothing, and she didn't know whether the other party was deeply hurt by what Gu Qingxu had just said.
To be fair. Because of the incident with her father, who was a biological son-in-law, she now wanted to stay away from every poor boy with potential.
It wasn't that she meant to discriminate, but the example before her was simply too cruel.
After discovering her illness and realizing that she was harmed by the person next to her, Mrs. Ying finally came to terms with the heartbreak. She held her precious daughter's hand and said regretfully that it would be better for her to find someone of equal status in the future.
But Ying Jiayi was more open-minded. She thought that this marriage was not necessary anyway.
She has seen through it, so she is even less optimistic about Song Yinxing and Gu Yang.
Just now, I accidentally heard Gu Qingxu's excessive words, and I was afraid that he would say something even more unpleasant, so I stepped forward to stop him.
She didn't expect that someone like Gu Qingxu, who thought so highly of himself, would get involved in this mess.
Her relationship with Gu Yang is not good, and she is acting like a wicked mother-in-law, singing and dancing here.
But she heard from Xiaobai that...Gu Yang had already met Song Yinxing's parents.
She's only been away for a few days, how come the progress is so fast?
Helplessly, she could only look at Song Yinxing deeply: "You can see that if you two want to be together, there will be more obstacles in the future."
No matter how bad Gu Qingxu is, he is still Gu Yang's family, so they will inevitably meet in the future.
"I don't quite understand what you're saying." Song Yinxing frowned again, but facing Ying Jiayi who had just helped him out, his tone was not as cold as before, "Did you misunderstand something? Gu Yang and I didn't..."
"I hate irresponsible men." Ying Jiayi lowered her voice in response. After realizing her own misconduct, she coughed to soften her tone. "Don't think too much about Gu Yang's usual behavior of not caring about anything. This is just his nature."
Doesn’t she understand Gu Yang’s character yet? Those who can often get along with him are not ordinary people. It was He Mingan before, but He Mingan always gave her a sense of being able to save all living beings.
Now with the addition of Song Yinxing on the new track, it is really not easy.
Ying Jiayi continued to help Gu Yang improve his impression score against her conscience: "But he is indeed different to you. I haven't seen him smile so happily in a long time."
When he heard this, Song Yinxing was stunned for a moment.
He recalled the several times that Gu Yang had laughed quite wildly in front of him.
Doesn’t that person often laugh like this?
Just stop talking when you have enough to say. Talking too much is being deliberate. Ying Jiayi waved her hand and prepared to leave, letting Song Yinxing continue on his own.
When he came to his senses, Song Yinxing only saw Ying Jiayi's back as she walked upstairs.
He opened his mouth, but it was too late to say what he wanted to say.
He just wanted to ask.
Aren’t he and Gu Yang just ordinary tutors?
What are they talking about?
When she returned to Class 11's classroom, Ying Jiayi still felt as if she was in another world.
When they saw her come back, several people greeted her.
"Jia Yi, you're finally back." Yu Bai's eyes lit up. Although they had been in contact all these days, he was naturally happy that the other party came back. ”
Ying Jiayi returned to her seat, accepting their greetings and chats. She knew that a lot of things had happened in the class during her absence, but she had watched them all remotely and did not miss a single one.
She smiled friendly at Lu Ji, who was sitting on her right.
Lu Ji was stunned for a moment. He was not used to accepting kindness, so he behaved a little stiffly.
Although I don't know whether the real young master of the Lu family is a good person, but from what I heard, it seems that his life is quite hard.
And finally I don’t have to be next to Shen Mingjun anymore, which is great.
She is now allergic to anyone who wants to be a son-in-law.
Because she had taken a long leave, she had to go to the Academic Affairs Office to submit a written report. She also asked He Mingan to come along so that he could speak if there was anything she needed to say.
Before she walked out, she even went around to the back and poked Gu Yang, who was still lying there, to his feet. Then she said with a smile, "I'm finally back. Did you miss me, Gu Yang?"
Gu Yang was still lying on the table. He rested his arms on his chin and raised his eyes to look at Ying Jiayi.
The girl in front of him had a genuine smile on her face. Although the drastic changes in the past few days had tempered her, the childishness on her face was still very obvious. After all, she was only eighteen years old, and there was no hiding her vigorous vitality.
She is a favored girl of heaven, and nothing can restrain her anymore. She will no longer rot and wither in the dark corner, but will grow towards the sun.
She has gone through her share of tribulations.
For the first time, Gu Yang had such a vivid feeling. From this smile, a small piece of puzzle lit up in the gray world.
Just like a dead tree coming back to life in spring.
The corners of his mouth unconsciously curved upwards. The sunlight coming in from outside shone on his grey eyes, making them appear somewhat gentle.
"Well, welcome back."
Ying Jiayi was stunned. She stood there in a daze. As the class's attention was still on her, everyone saw it. Xie Wu had a look of as if he had seen a ghost, and he even pushed Xu Qingfeng beside him to go and see.
After standing there for several seconds, Ying Jiayi came back to her senses. Her tone was still a little unstable: "I'm going to hand in the report first, let's talk later."
He Mingan looked at Gu Yang quietly, but he did not let himself stop for too long, he immediately followed Ying Jiayi's footsteps.
After everything was done, Ying Jiayi came out and said, "Finally it's done. The viewing ceremony was quite relaxed in other aspects, but it was too troublesome to ask for a long vacation."
He Mingan smiled and said, "Before this rule was introduced, students would often go abroad for several weeks at a time. Now it's much better."
"I'm mainly worried that you guys haven't been here for a long time, and I need to get a rough idea of what happened outside."
"I understand." Ying Jiayi said, "Thank you for accompanying me on this trip, squad leader. I will treat you to a meal and invite Gu Yang along."
At this point, she remembered what happened just now. She forgot about it because of the conversation after entering the class: "Oh, by the way, when I came up just now, I saw Gu Qingxu running here to find Song Yinxing, as if to ask him to stay away from Gu Yang."
"Really?" He Mingan showed a thoughtful look on his face, then smiled at Ying Jiayi and said, "I see, I will pay attention to this matter."
Ying Jiayi has great faith in He Mingan's reliability, and he is closer to Gu Yang, so if there is anything wrong, he will be able to detect it in time.
She let go of this little episode in her heart with peace of mind.
