Chapter 63
Ye Tianhui didn't expect that Gu Shizhang suddenly couldn't keep the appointment.
Said he had an urgent matter to attend to.
Ye Tianhui: "Forget it, let's do it another day."
She didn't really care, but she was afraid that her father might think that Gu Shizhang was going back on his word and would have a bad impression of him.
Gu Shizhang suddenly said, "Tianhui."
His voice was quite serious, which made Ye Tianhui feel something was wrong: "What's wrong?"
Gu Shizhang: "Nothing, my affairs will be dealt with soon, I will take care of everything."
Ye Tianhui raised her eyebrows slightly, she felt that he was a little weird.
But she didn't say anything: "Okay."
After hanging up the phone, she pondered for a moment, then left the company and went straight to Hong Kong University.
When we arrived near the school, we found a place to park the car and then entered the campus.
She had been to the campus of Hong Kong University once before, but the feeling she had when she came in again was naturally different from before.
That time she had nothing, bare hands and bare fists, facing the hustle and bustle of Hong Kong, she had almost no place to stand.
Now she has established herself in the Ye family, has Gu Shizhang, and also has a father who loves her.
When she looked at the Xiangjiang campus again at this time, the feeling was different. The beautiful scenery here was no longer distant and unfamiliar, but became familiar.
Because this is the campus where her father works and there are people close to her.
The campus in early winter does not look bleak at all, but rather bright and colorful, with lush greenery. The Renaissance-style granite colonnade building and its four tall corner towers are a typical Western style.
Ye Tianhui walked along the tree-lined avenue, following the wooden sign to find the location of the physics teaching building, but inadvertently saw a large upright sign with some photos of professors on it.
She immediately saw the photo in the most conspicuous position, which was of her biological father Ye Lixuan.
She looked at it with great interest, but saw an introduction below the photo, introducing his achievements. He had a brilliant resume, had won several international academic youth awards, and had published papers in important journals and achieved various achievements.
In short, it looks very good.
She looked at it for a while, and when she saw the word "youth", she couldn't help laughing.
Her father is actually still a young man!
Ye Tianhui watched her father's achievements with great interest, then continued walking forward and soon found the Physics Department teaching building that Ye Lixuan mentioned. It was a relatively traditional Chinese red brick building.
She looked around curiously and finally found a classroom, from which Ye Lixuan's voice could be heard.
She stood there and looked over, through the glazed window lattice, she saw that the class seemed to have come to an end, and Ye Lixuan was explaining a problem to the students. Many male and female students gathered around him, looking very admiring, asking questions. Ye Lixuan's face was calm, but he answered them all patiently.
As he was looking, Ye Lixuan looked up and happened to see her.
Ye Tianhui waved at him.
At this time, many students around noticed it and looked over, all of them becoming curious.
Ye Lixuan spoke to the students next to him for a few words, then came over to Ye Tianhui and asked, "How is everything going at the company?"
Ye Tianhui: "It's not going very smoothly."
Ye Lixuan: "Oh?"
Ye Tianhui: "But don't worry, I have it all figured out, everything will be resolved."
Ye Lixuan laughed dumbly and looked at his watch: "Have you eaten yet?"
Ye Tianhui: "No, I just wanted to pick you up."
Ye Lixuan: "Then I'll take you to the cafeteria to eat. I'll just answer a few questions here and then I'll be done. Come in and sit down while I get off."
Ye Tianhui nodded repeatedly.
After Ye Lixuan settled Ye Tianhui, he went straight to the front. At this time, the students in the classroom were already in an uproar. Although they didn't dare to make a sound, they all looked at Ye Tianhui curiously.
Ye Tianhui was going to the company today, so she wore a women's shirt and trousers from an internationally renowned brand. These were all matched for her by a clothing consultant before, and she just put them on directly.
The way she dressed, she looked bright and simple, dignified and free-spirited, which made all the students' eyes shine and they secretly exclaimed that she was so beautiful.
Some people even secretly looked at Ye Lixuan and marveled in their hearts, thinking about Professor Ye's cold temper in the past. It was said that he had never had a girlfriend, and he had never been seen to be polite to any woman. Occasionally, a female student would confess her love to him, but he rejected them all coldly.
They all thought that Professor Ye was a lonely and cold person, but they never expected that he was so patient when facing this young girl!
He was smiling at the girl just now, looking gentle and indulgent, so warm and thoughtful!
Ye Lixuan naturally felt the gazes of the students looking at his daughter. It was okay for female students, but the gazes of male students were intolerable to him. He immediately put on a serious expression, walked up to the podium, and talked to the students about the previous question.
Ye Tianhui sat there, supporting her chin with both hands, looking at Ye Lixuan on the podium.
I have to say that her daddy was really good at giving birth to her. She was beautiful when she was young, with an androgynous beauty, bold and free. However, as she got older, the brilliance of the past settled down, and she cultivated an inner brilliance.
He was tall and handsome, and when he stood on the podium and spoke eloquently, he looked like a young master from an aristocratic family in the Wei and Jin Dynasties.
He is indeed not as majestic as his general father, nor is he like other children of the Ye family such as Ye Lizhen and Ye Wenyong who can get involved in the family business and thus gain more resources and voice.
He is aloof and aloof, and dislikes worldly affairs, but he has made great achievements in academics and has become a clear stream in the Ye family.
It’s actually not bad to have a father like this.
Ye Tianhui held her chin and admired it with relish, feeling very happy in her heart.
Life is all about fate. In the previous life, my dad was a military commander, and in this life, my dad is a scholar. It’s quite interesting to say that.
As she thought about this, she suddenly remembered her childhood.
Once, the general father held her in his arms while riding a horse. She was still very young at that time, and her body was soft and tender. She disliked her father's rough grip, and his palms hurt her little arms.
At that time, she had a childish temper and was very spoiled. She was spoiled to the point of lawlessness and even dared to beat the prince.
She didn't have so many rules for her dad, so she pointed her finger at his forehead and scolded him.
Dad, why are you just a military general? You should also read more and learn more like your third brother, so that I can become powerful.
The third brother she mentioned was the saint later. At that time, she thought that her third brother was the best at studying. He could memorize all the knowledge at a glance, but she could not learn it.
The reason why she couldn't learn was because her father was a general who only knew how to fight but not how to memorize.
At that time, Daddy was already a famous general, with a strong belly and a wolf waist, and was unparalleled in bravery. However, in front of a little girl like her, he could not say anything and could only nod.
He kept admitting his mistakes, saying that it was all his fault that Huihui didn't like to study. He also said that he would study hard in his free time in the future.
She was very helpless at the time, and sighed like a little adult, saying that there was no hope. She didn't expect her father to become anything.
Daddy smiled helplessly at the time and said that he could only hope for the next life. In the next life, he would definitely become a well-educated person so that she could also benefit from it!
Ye Tianhui couldn't help laughing when she thought of all that had happened.
In her previous life, her father, the general, was the most important person in her life. He guided her life and tolerated all her arrogance. So much so that in her new life, she would still feel warm in her heart when she thought of her father.
That kind of warmth is like a quilt that has been repeatedly dried in the sun in winter, fluffy and warm, refreshing and dry, with the smell of sunshine.
In her previous life, her father, the general, gave her all his love without reservation.
Even though he is no longer around, she still gains great courage and strength when she thinks of him.
While thinking this, Ye Lixuan's class ended. He said goodbye to his students and came over.
He directly picked up the small handbag that Ye Tianhui had placed aside, and then led her out of the classroom.
At this time, the students had also finished their classes. They gathered around and looked at it curiously.
Finally, someone brave enough to ask, "Professor Ye, is this your girlfriend?"
When he asked this, everyone else laughed: "Professor Ye is dating! Professor Ye, your girlfriend is so young and beautiful!"
Ye Tianhui couldn't help laughing when she heard this.
Ye Lixuan's brows showed a bit of helplessness. Generally speaking, he didn't want to talk about his family affairs with his students.
But now there is obviously some misunderstanding.
He looked at the students and said, "Her name is Ye Tianhui."
leaf?
Everyone was surprised.
Ye Lixuan continued: "My daughter."
ah?
Everyone looked at Ye Tianhui in surprise.
In fact, everyone knows that Professor Ye has a daughter, who was born when he was young, so this daughter is not young anymore and should be going to college.
However, no one expected that this was actually Professor Ye’s daughter!
Ye Lixuan said seriously: "Yes, my daughter, my biological daughter."
Seeing this, Ye Tianhui smiled and greeted everyone: "My name is Tianhui, and I came here to eat with my dad!"
Everyone's eyes lit up immediately. She really was Professor Ye's daughter!
Ye Lixuan's expression was also quite gentle: "Does he look like me?"
Everyone was more and more surprised and laughed: "It seems a bit similar!"
Indeed, they can only be said to be "somewhat similar". Anyway, if you see them on the street, you would never imagine that they are father and daughter.
After saying this and laughing for a few words, Ye Lixuan took Ye Tianhui away. Looking at the backs of the two people, the students couldn't help but chatter.
"I didn't expect Professor Ye's daughter to be this big and so beautiful. How old is Professor Ye? Thirty-six?"
"Professor Ye is thirty-eight, right? His daughter seems to be eighteen!"
That makes sense...
Some even exclaimed: "No wonder, it turns out to be a daughter. I was curious why Professor Ye changed his usual demeanor and looked so doting."
The others nodded in agreement, "I can't wait to be his daughter! I can't wait to call him daddy!"
You know, Ye Lixuan is usually aloof and indifferent, and he rarely smiles at people. Who would have thought that he would be so gentle and loving when facing his own daughter!
It’s so nice to be his daughter!
************
Ye Tianhui was taken to the cafeteria by Ye Lixuan to eat. She soon discovered that many people around her were secretly looking at her. Obviously, everyone was very curious about her. Some people also greeted Ye Lixuan politely. It was obvious that those students respected Ye Lixuan very much.
This made her very proud.
At first she didn't think much of this father, but now she feels more and more that this father is a good one.
She thought that this father must be a man with a very high IQ. The reason why he was unwilling to interfere in family affairs might not be because he couldn't, but because he disdained to. He was arrogant and didn't care about these things.
In fact, from a longer-term perspective, no matter how fancy the internal fighting of the Ye family is, it is nothing more than a fight for those properties. However, Ye Lixuan is obsessed with learning and is dedicated to the advancement of human science and technology. It is hard to say who is greater and more valuable than the other.
After all, when people live in this world and have solved the most basic problem of food and clothing, the focus of life is not necessarily money, it can also be other things, some spiritual pursuits, higher-level ones.
Ye Lixuan looked at his daughter, who seemed to be lost in thought. He used his serving chopsticks to pick up a piece of pork ribs for her and said with a smile, "What are you thinking about?"
Ye Tianhui came back to her senses. She smiled at Ye Lixuan in front of her and said, "It's nothing. I just think Daddy is so smart and capable. It's great to be your daughter. I feel very proud today."
Ye Lixuan chuckled: "It's rare for you to say something nice. I'm not used to it. I'm really afraid that you'll turn around and start to criticize me again."
Ye Tianhui laughed heartily: "This is all in the past. We can be considered father and daughter who got to know each other through fighting. From now on, you will be the best father in the world, and I will be the most filial daughter!"
Ye Lixuan smiled and said, "Can I make a request to my most filial daughter?"
Ye Tianhui: "What?"
Ye Lixuan: "I will come here to attend classes in the future. If you don't go to the horse farm or the company, then come and see me off."
Ye Tianhui frowned when she heard this: "What do you mean? Do you not know how to drive anymore, or are you missing a driver?"
Let her deliver it? What is this young master thinking?
Ye Lixuan looked at her with a helpless expression: "Look, you were talking so nicely just now, but now you're unwilling to send me off. Where's your filial piety?"
Ye Tianhui wondered: "Tell me, what is your purpose?"
Ye Lixuan laughed out loud: "What's the purpose of this?"
Ye Tianhui: "It's fine, there must be a reason, otherwise it's not justifiable for you to torture your daughter like this."
Ye Lixuan restrained his smile, pondered for a moment, and then said, "Our school invites some well-known people every now and then, including academic masters, local politicians, and of course some well-known figures, to come and give speeches. If possible, if you have time, I hope you can come more often and be influenced by them."
Ye Tianhui understood everything: "So you mean, you think my cultural level is not high enough, so you want me to listen to the lectures of those great figures?"
Lecture...
This word is used.
Ye Lixuan smiled and said, "Actually, I feel that you have a good cultural background. Your history and literature foundation seems to be quite good. You also seem to have a talent for economics, but you don't have any diplomas. However, for the daughter of our Ye family, or for you, these are not really necessary. But I think you can come and listen occasionally to broaden your horizons. Or when there are no speeches, you can come to our school library. I'll give you my library card. It would be nice for you to browse through the books casually, right?"
Ye Tianhui was silent for a moment: "That's fine."
She had to admit that Ye Lixuan was right.
She doesn't expect to get a diploma or anything like that, but it is always beneficial to gain more knowledge, read more books, listen to more speeches from people from all walks of life, and see more of the different people in the world and their opinions.
Ye Lixuan looked at her obviously wilted appearance and said: "I'm not forcing you to do anything. It depends on your own interests."
Ye Tianhui said reluctantly: "I'll listen to you, okay!"
Ye Lixuan smiled and said, "By the way, after dinner, you go back first. I have something to take care of."
Ye Tianhui looked at him puzzledly, frowning: "What's the matter? Your daughter came all the way to pick you up, but something suddenly happened to you?"
Ye Lixuan: "I do have something to do. I will go back early tonight and have dinner with you."
Ye Tianhui: "Okay..."
In fact, she also wanted to run away quickly. If she was asked to study or listen to the lecture, of course she would run away first out of respect.
*********
Ye Lixuan saw his daughter off and watched her car slowly drive away. As the car gradually disappeared in the traffic, he remembered that the tie his daughter gave him was exactly the same as Gu Shizhang's.
Bought from the same store, similar style, just slightly different color and texture.
That morning, I carefully matched my clothes and wore that tie when I went out, but I never expected to see the same one worn by Gu Shizhang.
Now he understood that his daughter had bought two with her own money, one for herself and one for Gu Shizhang.
When I think of this, the bitterness in my heart spreads...
Naturally, he had some resentment towards his daughter, but he would suppress it and he was not willing to get angry with her.
In fact, from the very beginning, before they even met, he knew her character. She was not perfect, and she could not be the daughter that would satisfy him 100%.
So, don't blame her.
Who should be blamed then?
Of course, it’s Gu Shizhang’s fault.
If there is one person who is wrong, it must be Gu Shizhang. After all, Gu Shizhang is seven years older than her. Gu Shizhang is scheming and experienced. All the bad things that happened to his daughter must have been caused by him!
Anger spread through his nerves to every part of his body. However, Ye Lixuan's mind was exceptionally calm on this bustling street. He remembered many details, some that he had never noticed before.
The first time I saw my daughter was outside Zhang Linji.
While he was looking at his daughter, who seemed strangely familiar, there was another person watching him as well.
The man even asked why he was watching.
Now that I think about it, there was actually a deeper meaning behind that question.
He knew her, he had always known her, and at that time he had already regarded his daughter as his, so there was some male hostility hidden in his words.
Gu Shizhang knew from the beginning that this was his daughter, and he seduced his daughter!
As he thought about this, he felt a pair of gazes watching him.
He looked over slowly and saw Gu Shizhang.
Gu Shizhang, wearing a very formal shirt, stood silently by.
He is very law-abiding and obedient, and seems to be here to apologize for his crime. He is willing to be dealt with as he pleases!
Ye Lixuan pursed his lips and chuckled: "What would you like to drink?"
Gu Shizhang: "Whatever."
Ye Lixuan: "Coffee?"
Gu Shizhang: "Then let's go to the one next to your school."
Ye Lixuan: "Let's go."
Soon the two men walked towards the coffee shop side by side.
The weather was cold and the wind was chilly. The leaves on the roadside were rustling, and occasionally one or two fallen leaves would slide in front of them.
Both of them were silent and the atmosphere was depressing.
When they reached the door of the coffee shop, Ye Lixuan suddenly asked, "When did it start?"
