Chapter 4: Big Moments



By the afternoon, everyone's scores had been tallied and the students headed to the conference room. There is a particularly important thing to be announced today, which makes people in Gu Heng and Gu Chang's groups quite nervous.

Gu Heng and Gu Chang sat at the first seats on the left and right sides of the conference table respectively. Gu Chang was the son of Gu Heng's uncle, and his possibility of becoming the heir was second only to Gu Heng. The competition between the two of them is naturally not as simple as a competition between two groups, but a struggle for interests between the supporters behind them. The struggle for interests has always been cruel, because human desires are the deepest and bottomless abyss in the world, and you cannot see clearly how terrible things are hidden in these abysses.

Gu Chang smiled at Gu Heng and said, "Gu Heng, you don't look too well. You shouldn't be so nervous, right?"

Gu Heng also smiled and said, "Third brother, you are joking. I have already won the game, so there is no need to be nervous. I was bored, so I helped you calculate the average score. Have you thought about your summer vacation plans?"

"I'm a person who always thinks ten steps ahead, so I've naturally thought of all the arrangements long ago. But you're so confident, you must not have thought about the arrangements later, right?"

"You don't have to worry about this, Third Brother." Gu Heng said with a fake smile.

In the entire conference room, except for Gu Heng and Gu Chang who were talking to each other, everyone else remained quiet.

Gu Heng turned his head slightly and glanced at Yi Wei's empty chair. He was indeed very nervous. During the lunch break, he went to look for Yi Wei but couldn't find him. He called him but he didn't answer, and he hasn't shown up yet. He didn't know what Yi Wei was going to do.

Yi Wei came in almost on time. Under everyone's gaze, he walked to his seat and sat down.

As soon as Yi Wei sat down, the chief supervisor of the Gu family school came in with his men.

For everyone in this conference room, time is precious, so after Director Guan and several other managers sat down behind the long table on the stage, they started announcing everyone's achievements, evaluations and scores without any unnecessary nonsense, so everyone looked at the big screen in front of them seriously.

After the individual results were announced, the five outstanding students were also announced. Yi Wei, Gu Heng and Gu Chang once again received individual excellence awards.

Yi Xuan couldn't help but lower his head, and once again comforted himself in his heart that as long as he did his best in the major he studied, it didn't matter if he was not good enough in other aspects, and he didn't need to envy others. In fact, he was very glad in his heart that Yi Wei did not study the same major as him.

After all the previous announcements, it was time for the highlight of the day. The chief supervisor announced the average scores of each group and the groups that received excellent awards.

Except for Yi Wei who had a blank expression, all the other students were stunned with shock, because Gu Chang's group had the highest average score, and Gu Heng's group was third, not even second.

Gu Heng stood up suddenly and said excitedly: "Why did our group lose so many points?! How did you calculate it?! The error is too outrageous!"

"Young Master Gu Heng has a strong calculation ability. If you think we have made a mistake, you can calculate it again yourself in front of the screen." The chief supervisor said calmly.

Gu Heng quickly scanned the screen and immediately found that Yi Wei's results were not on it. He immediately turned to look at Yi Wei and said, "You didn't report your results!"

"Oh, that's right." Yi Weiyi said with an expression as if he suddenly remembered something, "My memory hasn't been very good recently, so I forgot to tell you. In fact, I applied to withdraw from your group half a month ago."

"Why didn't I, the team leader, know about your application to withdraw?!" Gu Heng said angrily, "Why didn't you tell me before? You did it on purpose, didn't you?!"

"You and I have broken off our engagement, and you and Yi Xuan are about to get engaged. Didn't you keep it a secret from me?" Yi Wei looked at Gu Heng with a half-smile and said, "It's just the same for us."

Gu Heng and Yi Xuan froze at the same time, thinking that Yi Wei really knew about it. Shock appeared in the eyes of others again. Even those friends who were particularly close to Gu Heng and Yi Xuan didn't know that they were going to get engaged.

Gu Chang, on the other hand, had an expression of great interest, as if he was waiting for an interesting show.

Gu Heng was exposed in public for his injustice and immediately lost his position to blame Yi Wei, but no matter what, he had to find a way to end it.

Gu Heng walked quickly towards Yi Wei, grabbed Yi Wei's wrist, pulled him up, glared at him and said, "Did you discuss this with Gu Chang? Did you team up to mess with me on purpose?!"

Gu Chang immediately understood that Gu Heng was deliberately trying to involve him, and he sat up straight. Just as he was about to speak, the chief supervisor spoke before him, "Master Gu Heng, please go back to your seat."

"I don't recognize the average score announced this time. I will ask the supervisory committee to re-judge and re-calculate the scores!" Gu Heng said angrily: "In the Gu family's family education, such despicable competition methods are not allowed!"

The screen in front suddenly opened to both sides, and the chief supervisor and other supervisory personnel quickly stood up at the same time and stood on both sides.

The students were stunned for a moment because they didn't know that the screen could be turned on.

After the screen was turned on, another room appeared. Gu Yueshan, wearing a black suit, was sitting on a large sofa chair. Behind him stood more than 20 assistants and bodyguards. His bossy aura made people's hearts tremble involuntarily.

All the students stood up immediately. Gu Heng was shocked when he saw Gu Yueshan, so he immediately returned to his seat and stood up. His face became even uglier because of his panic.

Yi Wei did not expect Gu Yueshan to appear suddenly, but judging from the situation, Gu Yueshan should have been observing them in the room next door.

Yi Wei turned his head slightly and quietly observed Gu Yueshan's expression. Gu Yueshan raised his eyes and met his gaze. Yi Wei's heart trembled, and he immediately shifted his gaze away, then lowered his eyes. He was also a little afraid of Gu Yueshan in his heart, but he felt more apologetic and regretful. In his previous life, Gu Yueshan was very nice to him and was not as scary as others had rumored. It should be said that most of the time, Gu Yueshan was not a scary person to him.

"Go on." Gu Yueshan said.

"Yes." The chief supervisor bowed and answered respectfully, then stood up and continued to announce the list of people selected as intern assistants this time.

There is another thing today. In addition to arranging intern assistants for some management managers, Gu Yueshan will also choose an intern assistant from among them this year. Naturally, others dare not even think about it, so it is natural to think that it will be one of Gu Heng and Gu Chang. Whoever is chosen among them will be trained by Gu Yueshan and will be one step closer to the position of heir. And there was news before that whoever's team could get the excellent award, as the team leader, would be more likely to become Gu Yueshan's internship assistant, which was why Gu Heng wanted to get the excellent team so much.

The Gu family has a large population, with complex connections and complicated relationships. Gu Yueshan's uncle was infertile, so Gu Yueshan was chosen by his grandfather to be adopted by his uncle. He was raised by his grandfather himself and became the chairman of the Gu Group and the head of the Gu family.

Gu Yueshan, the chairman of Gu Group, is in his thirties and has not yet married because he is infertile like his uncle. However, Yi Wei knew that infertility was just a false excuse made up by Gu Yueshan to cover up the real reason why he could not get married, otherwise she would not have been pregnant with Gu Yueshan's child.

Yi Wei controlled her hand that wanted to put on her belly, thinking about how Gu Heng and Gu Chang were fighting for the chance to be adopted as Gu Yueshan's son, and Gu Yueshan's biological son was now in his belly.

The ten candidates for intern assistants have been announced, and Gu Chang is among them, which surprised others because it means that Gu Chang was not selected as Gu Yueshan's intern assistant.

This rekindled hope in Gu Heng's heart. He felt that as Gu Yueshan's nephew, he still had the advantage. Even if his group did not win the excellent award, as long as Gu Yueshan wanted him to be the successor, then there would be plenty of reasons to make him an intern assistant.

"The chairman's intern assistant is..." The chief supervisor finally announced: "Yi Wei."

All the students looked at Yi Wei with shocked eyes. If it weren’t for Gu Yueshan, someone among them would have shouted out loud: How could it be him? !

Gu Yueshan stood up and walked to the long table and called out, "Gu Heng."

"Yes." Gu Heng immediately came back to his senses and faced Gu Yueshan.

"You don't need to learn anything else in these two months. Go to the Institute of Etiquette and learn all the etiquette and manners from beginning to end several times." Gu Yueshan looked at Gu Heng and said. There was no expression on his face and his tone was very flat, but it made people feel very oppressed.

Gu Yueshan wanted to punish Gu Heng. It was a shame for Gu Heng to be punished by Gu Yueshan personally to learn etiquette.

But in front of Gu Yueshan, Gu Heng didn't dare to defend himself, let alone complain, and could only answer: "...Yes."

After watching Gu Yueshan leave, the others turned their eyes to Yi Wei again. They were still very surprised and didn't understand why Yi Wei was chosen to be Gu Yueshan's intern assistant.

Yi Wei walked to Gu Heng and said with a smile: "Congratulations in advance on your engagement with Yi Xuan. Congratulations to you two."

Gu Heng clenched his fists and glared at Yi Wei fiercely. He had just been punished by Gu Yueshan, so no matter how angry he was, he had to endure it.

After watching Yi Wei leave, the others came to their senses, and the conference room immediately became lively.

"What's going on? Why is Yi Wei going to be the assistant?!"

"Yeah, didn't they say that this assistant selection has special significance? Even if he has the highest score, he shouldn't be the assistant! He's not a family member."

"But the chief supervisor announced it in front of Director Gu, so there shouldn't be any mistakes, right?"

The people who supported Gu Heng and Gu Chang had been planning the selection of an assistant for a long time. They wanted to see who Gu Yueshan really wanted to choose as the successor. However, Gu Yueshan chose a person who had no influence or connection with the decision of the successor.

"Gu Heng." Yi Xuan also had a look of surprise and shock on his face. He pulled Gu Heng's hand and asked, "What's going on? Why did Director Gu choose Yi Wei as his assistant?"

"I don't know either." Gu Heng shook his head with an unpleasant expression, pounded the table hard to vent his anger, and then said: "Let's go to grandma!"

After Gu Chang came to his senses, he quickly left the meeting room. Others were still discussing why Yi Wei was chosen to be Gu Yueshan's assistant.
