Chapter 529: Finale 23: Gu Yuan is fought over by two big men, He Shuijiao and the others are furious
Principal Ji actually came here for Lu Chiyu's pretty boy boyfriend instead of attending Yuan Ye's engagement party!
This was really beyond their expectations!
However, there were also some people who were quick-witted. They had noticed that the half sentence Gu Yuan said to Principal Ji that was interrupted by Lu Chiyu had a sense of familiarity. It was obvious that he and Principal Ji had known each other before.
Principal Ji's words contained too much information. First, the gun design drawings that Gu Yuan gave them were actually favored by the military, and the military was so eager to produce them.
Second, the country will reward him greatly for this. Third, he performed very well in the re-examination of the First Military University of the Red Country, and then Principal Ji and others passed him with a unanimous vote in advance.
Finally, it was obvious that Principal Ji and Gu Yuan had known each other before, and Principal Ji even added the other person as a Green Letter friend.
In short, no matter which one of these, they all convey a signal, that is, Gu Yuan’s future will be limitless.
For a moment, everyone looked at each other, and then the eyes that were originally envious of Yuan Ye were now all focused on Gu Yuan.
At this moment, an old man around the same age as Principal Ji stepped forward and shook hands with Gu Yuan enthusiastically, saying, "Little Gu, I'm Wen Shichang, the director of admissions at the National Defense University of Science and Technology of Hongguo.
That's right. We have also seen your gun design drawings. We really admire your talent in designing weapons, so I think it is more suitable for you to come to our university to study weapons research and development than to go to Lao Ji's military academy.
Don't worry, our university students are also on the military staff. Moreover, compared to going to a military academy and learning other military skills, our university allows you to devote yourself to weapons research and development.
I sincerely feel that for a top science student from Hai Province like you to serve as a soldier in a military academy like Lao Ji's is a huge waste of your talent in research and development.
So, would you like to consider our university as well?"
When Principal Ji saw that Wen Shichang was actually trying to snatch someone from him, he got anxious and said, "Old Wen, this is really unfair of you. Xiao Gu clearly applied to our military academy. How could you cut us off halfway?"
After that, he hurriedly said to Gu Yuan, "Little Gu, don't listen to what this old guy says. Our military academy also has weapons research and development. You can also use your talents in our military academy.
Moreover, we can also train your military qualities when you join the army. The military qualities you demonstrated in our military academy's re-examination and your talent in weapons research and development are both extremely outstanding. It would be a pity to waste either one.
You can take care of both at our military academy, and then when you graduate you can choose the one you like best as your main attack, isn't that the best of both worlds?"
"Old Ji, you're talking nonsense. Your military academy has a good R&D major, but can you possibly have the depth of expertise in this area that our university has? With Xiao Gu's talent, he should come to our university to study. That would be a better fit."
"But Xiao Gu enrolled in our university..."
So everyone just watched as Principal Ji and Wen Shichang, the two big guys, engaged in a verbal battle to compete for the student Gu Yuan.
They were all stunned!
After they realized what was happening, those guests who only cooperated with the Du family and were not relatives or friends of the Du family subconsciously moved away from He Shuijiao and the others, and moved towards Lu Chiyu and Gu Yuan.
There were even some smooth and shameless people who had already started to congratulate Lu Chiyu and Gu Yuan with a smile.
Du Qingqing couldn't bear the contrast when she saw this scene. She couldn't help but ask Principal Ji a soul-searching question: "Principal Ji, aren't you here to attend my engagement party with Yuan Ye?"
After hearing this question, Principal Ji and Wen Shichang finally stopped their verbal battle.
Seeing them looking at her, Du Qingqing continued excitedly: "Principal Ji, didn't you know that my fiancé Yuan Ye got the qualification for further study at your university and came to attend our engagement party?"
Yuan Ye, He Shuijiao and others were also nervously waiting for Principal Ji's answer.
"Oh, so your fiancé has also been admitted to our university. Congratulations."
After hearing Principal Ji's congratulations, Du Qingqing and the others did not feel the slightest bit of surprise, because the other party's answer clearly showed that he had no idea that Yuan Ye had been admitted to their university before.
So they really weren't coming for Yuan Ye!
After getting this answer, Du Qingqing and the others were deeply shocked. Yuan Ye couldn't bear the blow and took a step back.
"No, then why did you say you wanted to come upstairs to attend our engagement party when you were downstairs?" Du Qingqing continued to ask unwillingly.
Principal Ji asked doubtfully, "Really? Didn't we just ask the front desk if we could come up to your engagement party to find someone, and this person is very important to our work?"
"Haha, so that's how it is. Well... then, Principal Ji, since you're here, why don't you attend my daughter and son-in-law's engagement party before leaving? We'll be setting up the table soon." He Shuijiao followed Principal Ji's words and made an invitation. If the other party could stay for dinner, it would help them save some of the face they had just lost.
The most important thing is to give Yuan Ye a chance to talk to Principal Ji and the others. Then today's incident can be considered a blessing in disguise.
When He Shuijiao saw the bodyguard Xiao Liu lowering his head and not daring to look at her, she already understood that there was indeed a misunderstanding in the previous incident.
"Yes, Principal Ji, we will be having dinner soon. You should stay and have dinner before leaving. It happens that you, Principal Ji, have been my idol since I joined the army. I would be honored if you could attend my engagement party." Yuan Ye said flatteringly.
"Thank you for your approval, classmate Yuan, but we will not attend the engagement banquet today. The higher-ups are waiting for us to bring Xiao Gu back to finalize the gun design as soon as possible so that it can be put into production." Principal Ji refused.
In fact, although their schedule was tight, they still had to squeeze out time for lunch. However, based on the information provided by Lu Chiyu earlier, Principal Ji did not like Yuan Ye and the others, and did not want to stay and give them the opportunity to get close to him, so he chose to refuse.
"Well... in this case, then... then I won't delay your business, Principal Ji. After all, business is what's important." Yuan Ye forced a smile.
"Girl, do you want to come with us with your boyfriend? Don't worry, as long as you stay away when we are discussing confidential work, you can still be with Xiao Gu at other times.
Or we can send you home first." As they were leaving, Principal Ji suddenly said to Lu Chiyu.
Lu Chiyu: "Thank you for your kindness, President Ji, but no need. I haven't eaten at the engagement banquet yet. I can drive home after I finish the banquet."
Seeing that Lu Chiyu didn't seem to be lying, Principal Ji nodded: "Okay, then we'll leave first."
In fact, it was not very polite for him to invite Lu Chiyu earlier, but he invited her because he was afraid that she would be bullied if she stayed alone.
So when he saw that Lu Chiyu sincerely refused, he was happy to see it happen, as he obviously had a plan.
Gu Yuan couldn't help but remind him: "Ayu, please stay and be careful."
"Yeah, don't worry."
After Gu Yuan and the others left the banquet hall, Lu Chiyu immediately clapped his hands exaggeratedly and said:
"Oh, who was it earlier who said that someone had entered the Red Nation's First Military University at the age of 28 and had a promising future? Well, my Yuanyuan is only 18, ten years younger than 28. Isn't his future bright?"
"Hahaha..." As soon as these words came out, some of the guests couldn't help laughing.
