Chapter 143
Gu Tianci watched the Maybach drift in an extremely cool manner and stop at the entrance of the venue. He was stunned for a moment, and then his expression was filled with envy.
"I don't know which family these guys are from. I wouldn't dare to play like this in front of this venue, but they actually did it."
Gu Tianci thought about it and felt aggrieved, but when he saw two people getting out of the Maybach, his eyes widened involuntarily.
"The Lu family?"
Gu Tianci found it a little unbelievable. You know, Lu Jiu from the Lu family was a control group for him since childhood.
Lu Jiu had excellent academic performance since he was a child and had never caused any worries to his parents. Sometimes, even at parties, he could hear words from his parents that seemed to be worried but were actually boasting.
For example, Lu Jiu was sent abroad on a government scholarship, but the family was reluctant to let him go so far away. Another example was that after Lu Jiu returned to China, the Lu family threw a hospital at him, but they complained that Lu Jiu had no time to manage it and had to rely on their tutor's schedule. Fortunately, this guy managed the hospital well.
All these incidents made Lu Jiu the public enemy of most ordinary kids in the entire circle, especially those playboys, who hated Lu Jiu with a vengeance.
Fortunately, things have been better in recent years. These playboys have been pushed out by their families to arrange marriages or get married. After they have families, they can look to Lu Jiu to comfort themselves. Although they don't have his achievements, Lu Jiu and the widowed king at least still have a partner and children.
Although this kind of comfort is very Ah Q, it is indeed useful. At least the married playboys are not as hostile to Lu Jiu anymore.
——But this does not include Gu Tianci.
Although he is married, it's almost the same as not being married.
He had never seen the old man from beginning to end, and even in his impression he was still single. So when some people mentioned that he was married, he would be stunned for a moment, and then frown and say with disgust, "Don't mention such a depressing thing."
I didn't even think about it when I was communicating with Shen Ning through the diary.
However, Gu Tianci had not expected this, and Lu Jiu was fine, he had long recognized that this guy must be a stuffy person, after all, there is no such person who looks calm and relaxed but actually has achieved greater success. People like that are usually very tired, but Lu Jiu had to pretend to be very relaxed.
Gu Tianci really couldn't understand why Lu Yi was like this. He didn't pay much attention to Lu Yi. His admission was a foregone conclusion anyway, and because the poor student was afraid of the top student, he basically didn't communicate with him.
I didn't expect that Lu Yi is the same as his brother in private. They both look quite reserved. He remained calm even when such a big drift came towards him.
But how did they convince the drivers to cooperate with them?
Thinking of this, Gu Tianci saw the driver and the butler coming out from the driver's seat and the co-pilot seat.
The two looked normal, but their faces were a little pale. However, Gu Tianci just thought that it was because the lights outside the venue were too bright.
Then Gu Tianci saw the driver and the housekeeper standing there trying to get tissues, but it seemed as if their limbs were out of control and the tissues accidentally slipped out of their pockets.
The two of them frantically picked up almost all the tissues before they were able to catch the small packet steadily.
Gu Tianci: ...
No, my hands are shaking like this, I’d better not drift next time.
"What are you thinking about? Come in quickly and say hello to your Uncle Lu."
The familiar voice of his own father sounded, and Gu Tianci turned around and put the abnormality of the driver and the housekeeper behind his mind.
Gu Tianci was very confident about his look today. His hair was parted in a 3:7 ratio, with the ends of his hair slightly curled on top of his head. With the gold-rimmed glasses he wore specially today, he looked like a cultured and handsome guy.
Although he couldn't compare to Lu Jiu in terms of academics, and was even almost inferior to Lu Yi, at least he couldn't lose in terms of looks.
...However, when he arrived in front of Uncle Lu, he lowered his head which had been raised.
Not to mention that Uncle Lu, a typical successful man, instantly shrunk his father's beer belly. Uncle Lu's two sons standing by were more powerful than the other.
Lu Yi's advantage lies in the youthful vitality. His face has a very high degree of facial folds, and his superior high brow bones and straight nose bridge can be seen from the side.
And Lu Jiu...
The corner of Gu Tianci's mouth twitched. If he knew that Lu Jiu was dressed almost the same as him today, he would never run up to him and humiliate himself.
Wearing the same black shirt, black tie and gold-rimmed glasses, Lu Jiu looked like a modest gentleman like Liang Shanbo - and he was like Ma Wencai who robbed Zhu Yingtai.
He looked at the Lu family of four in front of him, and then looked at his own family of three - even his own mother looked more mean than Aunt Lu.
He immediately became obedient, even saying hello in a cowardly manner and hiding behind his parents without moving.
Father Gu glared at Gu Tianci with a look of disappointment, and then he still forced an explanation:
"...Alas, this child is used to staying in that place at school. He is not very good at socializing. Alas, we as parents can't do anything about it."
Father Gu said this with a helpless look on his face.
"Hey, kids, don't we give all the money we earn to them? Look at this kid of ours, isn't he devoted to the medical industry? He's been busy with his project every day and hasn't come home. Even Lu Yi is the same. This kid is already in his third year of high school, but he hasn't told us what school he wants to apply to. We can't control it anymore, so we can only let him do whatever he wants."
Mr. Lu said this with some comfort, but in fact he never stopped showing off.
Father Gu seemed not to understand the hidden meaning and continued to praise Lu Jiu and Lu Yi who were standing opposite him with a smile on his face.
"Doesn't this just prove that your two sons are the best of the best? Unlike my kid, who has poor grades and was admitted to a key high school by me through connections. I don't expect him to inherit the family business. He just needs to stay in school and give me and his mother a big fat grandson."
While praising him, Father Gu once again looked at Gu Tianci behind him with some anger.
Gu Tianci, however, pushed the gold-rimmed glasses he had deliberately put on today, and said with a cultured look:
"Everything depends on fate. I don't want someone who is not soul-matched. Besides, I'm not divorced. I can't delay an omega, right?"
Seeing Gu Tianci's reckless look, Father Gu wanted to hit him on the spot, but was stopped by Mother Gu. She turned around and signaled that the Lu family was still there, so Father Gu took his hand back.
"I'm sorry, Mr. Lu, I'm sorry to have embarrassed you. This kid hasn't gotten over his rebellious teenage years for more than a decade. As parents, we really don't know what to do."
Mr. Lu's expression remained calm. He greeted Mr. Gu and said it was okay. The two of them then started chatting about recent events in the medical industry.
Gu Tianci was still in the same state, and his mother was so angry that she pinched him and whispered to him:
"That's why I told you to quickly explain to that guy surnamed Ye. Don't let them occupy the position of our Gu family's daughter-in-law. The treatment we gave him before was because he could help our Gu family manage the family property. Now that he is blind, he should take the initiative to be sensible and give up his position. This can be regarded as repaying our previous kindness in cultivating him."
Mother Gu said with a frown, and the already existing frown deepened.
"What's the result? You just refused to go, saying you didn't want to see him. Please, I asked you to go so that you can get our money back, not so that you can really date him! You are such a big alpha, can't you be a little more responsible?"
Mother Gu gritted her teeth and looked at Gu Tianci, who still turned his face away and refused to give a definite answer.
"I asked you to marry him but you refused to go. I asked you to divorce him to protect our family's money but you refused to go, Gu Tianci! Do you just want to see this guy make a lot of money for free by marrying you?"
But unfortunately, even though he said such harsh words, Gu Tianci still didn't react at all. Gu's mother was helpless. After all, he was her only son after giving birth to several omegas. She had no way to deal with Gu Tianci.
Gu Tianci felt a little annoyed with his ears. He already knew what his own mother was thinking. She was just afraid that the old man would take their money.
But Gu Tianci felt that in the sense that the other person was marrying him, it was going from a first marriage to a second marriage, so he could just share some money. They had signed a prenuptial agreement before, so the money that was shared was what he deserved.
Gu Tianci would definitely not be willing to ask for the money back himself. How embarrassing that would be!
He is asking for the money back after giving it away voluntarily. Isn't that a slap in the face? His parents can do it, but he can't.
but……
"Perhaps it's time to go find that old man and warn him not to go out in public under the name of Mrs. Gu, even if she's the ex-wife. The title of Mrs. Gu is still quite valuable, and besides..."
Gu Tianci sighed and thought.
'I don't want anyone to know that I was married before.'
While Gu Tianci was thinking, he saw Lu Yi looking at this side with curiosity, and then asked openly:
"Teacher Gu, are you married? We didn't know."
When Gu Tianci thought that this kid might reveal this matter at school, he immediately coughed and said seriously:
"The family marriage that my parents forced me into had no feelings for each other. I haven't even met the person in person, I've only seen his photo. He's already going through the divorce process. You can just treat me as single at school."
Gu Tianci said this in a seemingly serious tone.
Mother Gu looked at Lu Yi opposite her expectantly, hoping that he would say a few more words, preferably to encourage her son to take the money back.
"Ah, so there is no emotion." Lu Yi said with an expression of sudden enlightenment. Finally, facing Mother Gu's expectant gaze, he said bluntly:
"But if you have no feelings for your partner, Mr. Gu, why do you want to share his property? Is there any problem with Gu's capital chain?"
The young man stood there, smiling brightly and innocently, and said:
"If something goes wrong, will Gu's provide financial support for the next project?"
Gu's mother found out that the boy had heard everything she said, and Gu Tianci, who knew how much his father valued this project, said:...
They looked up at the same time in the direction of Gu's father.
Father Gu, who heard this as soon as he came over, said:
——Hunting time!
Father Gu's expression immediately turned sour. After glaring at Gu Tianci and Mother Gu fiercely, he looked at Lu Yi opposite him with residual anger.
At this time, Lu Jiu stood up and stood in front of his brother, saying apologetically:
"Sorry, Director Gu, the child can't understand nonsense."
Although he said so, he did not make Lu Yi apologize. Instead, he still stood in front of Lu Yi, then lowered his voice and whispered:
"The pressure in the third year of high school is huge. His personality has indeed been a little weird during this period, and there is nothing I can do about it. I'm afraid it will affect his studies in the third year of high school. It's just this one year. I apologize to you here."
As Lu Jiu spoke, he apologized to Director Gu for the second time.
But Director Gu felt that he was speechless.
He said that Gu Tianci was young and had never gotten over his rebellious youth, so he had no way to take care of him. However, Lu Yi, who was 10 years younger than Gu Tianci, was in his real rebellious youth.
He even had the perfect buff of being a senior in high school and an excellent student. This made him a very powerful figure in their circle of middle-aged and elderly people.
The high school students who are good at studying feel a little bit stressed and may be a little careless when speaking, but it’s not a big deal - they can even express themselves better than Gu Tianci.
The sincere and apologetic look made it difficult for them to speak.
In the end, Director Gu still didn't say what he wanted to scold, and could only let the matter go.
As for Lu Yi, his eldest brother pretended to scold him for a few words, but then he acted as if nothing had happened and started socializing with his peers.
——But the flawless look was completely different from before.
Gu Tianci was even a little surprised. Why did Lu Yi seem to have deliberately targeted him before?
However, he did not think about this question for long. As he turned around, he was attracted by the gathering of his friends and hurried over there.
Then he started asking his friends for advice on how to write love letters.
"Oh? Master Gu is playing the role of a love saint this time. Last time he asked us to write love poems for you, and now he's turning around and writing love letters?"
One of the friends said.
Gu Tianci waved his hand to dispel the other party's ridicule and said seriously:
"If you can write, then write. If you can't, then get out."
Alpha can't say no.
As soon as these words were spoken, all the alphas sitting on the sofa straightened up and looked at the draft handed over by Gu Tianci, ready to amaze everyone.
Three minutes later.
"No, I can't think of one! Where did you find the literary omega? I've never heard of the allusions and metaphors used, and I found them all when I searched for them!"
The dandy boy who just spoke said with a look of disbelief.
The other people present also had such incredible expressions. God knows they are just a bunch of good-for-nothings who only know how to eat, drink, play and spend their parents' money. Asking them to challenge this kind of literary writing that is as difficult as the college entrance examination, isn't this asking for their lives?
They didn’t have so many allusions in their minds when they took the college entrance examination that year.
"I just came here to discuss this with you guys. Strength lies in numbers..."
Gu Tianci seemed to be speaking with confidence, but in fact he felt a little guilty.
And just as these playboys, who had returned all their Chinese knowledge to the teacher, were discussing how to write the love letter.
However, Gu Tianci always felt that there was a burning gaze staring at him. When he turned around, he found that it was Pan Yuan, who had poured wine on him in the bar last time, standing there. He looked at him without dodging or avoiding, but just nodded slightly at him.
But what was the relief on his face? Why did he look like an elder looking at a younger person?
Just when Gu Tianci looked confused, Pan Yuan nodded to Gu Tianci and then lowered his head and spoke to Ye Wangxing on the other side of the phone.
On the mobile phone call page, the three words "Ye Wangxing" are particularly eye-catching.
"——Gu Tianci was okay this time. He didn't mess around with other girls. He didn't even go near the omegas at the party. He just sat on the sofa writing a love letter. He just didn't look very smart. A bunch of alphas were struggling over the love letter for more than ten minutes, but they couldn't utter a single word."
Pan Yuan couldn't help but smile as he spoke.
"And his acting skills have improved. Even though he was almost kissing you in private, he still looked like he wanted to divorce you in front of his parents. He also acted like his father's male chauvinism, as if he would be ashamed to face others if he took your money."
Pan Yuan said this without paying attention to the fact that Ye Wangxing on the other side did not reply to him, and said excitedly:
"I have now discovered that it is actually quite fun to have such a stupid thing at home. Its thoughts are straightforward and can be seen through at a glance. Playing with it is just like playing with a dog. It is very interesting, just like raising a husky."
Ye Wangxing on the other end of the phone was silent for a long time before he spoke helplessly:
"You are really hungry, you can eat anything... And don't humiliate the Husky, it is a working dog in the ice and snow."
Pan Yuan chuckled twice in embarrassment before saying:
"I think he seems to be turning over a new leaf. Besides, you're going to live with him for a while, so say something nice about him."
Ye Wangxing's calm voice came: "He lived with me for a while, not me and him, and he is not that bad."
"It seems like you've fallen for it. Do you want to consider not getting a divorce?"
Pan Yuan asked Ye Wangxing on the other end of the phone, and Ye Wangxing's voice was still calm:
"We still have to get a divorce. With the prenuptial agreement in place, I'm the one who suffers. Besides, if we don't get a divorce, his parents won't be able to get through it. This is his business, and it's something he needs to resolve. I can't be held responsible for it."
"...As expected, a rational person like you is suitable for marriage."
Pan Yuan was silent for a while and then said with a sigh.
"I'm sure I've already started imagining the future."
Ye Wangxing's voice came again:
"It's too early to talk about the future now. For now, let's settle the property disputes after the divorce, and then talk about the future."
Pan Yuan thought about it and ended the topic. He turned to talk to Ye Wangxing about what he saw and heard at the banquet today, as well as some little gossip at the banquet.
"...Speaking of which, I just realized that there are so many young talents in our capital, especially the two brothers of the Lu family. One is 28 years old like Gu Tianci, and the other is only 18 years old."
Pan Yuan said gossipingly.
"The young master of the Lu family looks sunny and cheerful. He is an excellent student in his senior year of high school. He looks like he was modeled after a human."
"The eldest young master is a winner in life. He is a doctoral student in medicine. At the age of 28, he has already followed up on the artificial cornea project and is even the second author. He is also handsome and modest, with a modeling face that is exactly the same as his younger brother."
At this point, Pan Yuan said to Ye Wangxing with a tut-tut sound:
"Look at him and then look at Gu Tianci. He, who is also 28 years old, was knocked to the ground in seconds. If it weren't for his family background, he probably wouldn't even be worthy of carrying your shoes."
Ye Wangxing said calmly, "But family background is also part of the strength of people like them, and with my current network of connections, Gu Tianci is actually the best choice. Even if we get divorced, we won't lose much."
Hearing this, Pan Yuan sighed and said, "Alas, what a pity that your flower is stuck in the cow dung of Gu Tianci - but then again, if you get divorced, how about I introduce you to the two people from the Lu family?"
Although Pan Yuan's sudden thoughts were mostly joking, they became more and more true the more he spoke.
"You are now involved in the artificial cornea project, so we are related. When you are well again in half a year, I will introduce you to the eldest son of the Lu family. If that doesn't work, the younger son is also possible. He is an 18-year-old brother."
"Which of these two is better than that stupid guy Gu Tianci?"
Pan Yuan spoke with bright eyes and full concentration, and did not notice that the eldest and youngest masters of the Lu family, who were talking to people not far away, both had their lips curled up.
But some people still noticed it.
For example, the butler who was just frightened.
He looked at the eldest and young masters, whose lips were about to fly up to the sky and stand shoulder to shoulder with the sun, and the corners of his mouth twitched.
——Are you two happy about being stronger than Gu Tianci?
He was originally standing behind the pillar just to wait for orders, but who would have thought that there would be a melon in front of the pillar and it would be stuffed into his mouth!
The butler was already in a bad mood. It was shocking enough that the eldest and youngest masters fell in love with the same person at the same time.
But who would have thought that there is always someone stronger than the strong - the eldest and the youngest master were so bold as to pretend to be someone else's legal husband!
Even though Mr. Ye had never lived with him day and night, and had even only seen photos of Gu Tianci, all his experiences with the young master were his own.
but……
This would still violate the law!
At that time, Mr. Butler almost called the police.
If they hadn't happened to be at the banquet, the behavior of him and Lao Zhang at that time would definitely have been noticed as abnormal by the eldest and young masters.
Recalling how shocked he felt when he heard the news, the butler wanted to scream - he only earns 50,000 yuan a month, why should he be told such a big news!
It would be wrong for him not to report this kind of thing after hearing it, and it would be even more wrong for him to report it. He could only pretend to be deaf and dumb and pretend that he didn't hear it. He planned to change the Maybach when he returned to avoid such a situation from happening again.
Of course, while worrying about this matter, the housekeeper was also keeping an eye on his eldest and youngest masters, fearing that they would be discovered by their parents.
Fortunately, Lu’s parents didn’t find out.
Except that the young master was a little bit against Gu Tianci in the beginning, they were relatively honest the rest of the time.
——God knows that when the housekeeper saw Lu Yi talking to Gu Tianci, he was afraid that he would tell Gu Tianci that your wife is fine, but now mine.
Fortunately, that didn’t happen. The young master seemed to have only targeted Gu Tianci slightly.
However, what the housekeeper is worried about now is not this, but the fact that the Gu family wants Gu Tianci and Ye Wangxing to meet.
If Gu Tianci suddenly became smart and agreed...
The housekeeper's heart suddenly began to beat fast and he looked up at Gu Tianci.
——Then I saw Gu Tianci facing a crumpled piece of paper, proudly reading his masterpiece:
"Ah! You are like a fallen leaf in autumn, you look strong, but in fact you will fall if the wind blows!"
housekeeper:……
Suddenly I put my heart back in my stomach.
