Mrs. Gu had been thinking about Gu Qingchi for a long time. He couldn't stay at home all the time. People who stayed at home would easily get sick. So as soon as Gu Qingchi said that he wanted to go to school, Mrs. Gu happily called Gu's father and asked him to help make arrangements.
Gu's father strongly supports Gu Qingchi's continued studies. In this regard, he is a very old-fashioned person at heart, and always feels that without college life, life would be missing something.
Especially since he had seen Gu Qingchi's transcript at that time, which was very beautiful, so beautiful that anyone who saw it would say it was a pity.
But Gu Qingchi's condition was so poor at that time that his father and his wife had no time to care about anything else. The only thing they hoped for was that Gu Qingchi would be healthy and happy.
Now that Gu Qingchi himself asked to go to school, Gu's father was very happy. He put down his work and let Gu Qingchi study, and even put on his glasses, which he rarely used.
The style chosen by Mrs. Gu, with a thin gold frame and a chain, was a bit too fancy for Mr. Gu, so he kept it carefully and did not secretly buy a different style, but he did not wear it easily.
"There are many good universities abroad that allow you to apply with your high school or college entrance examination scores. Even before that, your scores will definitely be good enough."
Mrs. Gu pushed Father Gu and gave him a blank look.
"Chichi wants to apply to Xiaoxie's university."
Gu Qingchi did take the college entrance examination at that time and had very good results, so he could choose one of the best universities in the country, but it had been a long time since he took the college entrance examination.
Up to now, although Gu Qingchi wanted to apply to a domestic university, even he himself was a little unsure and felt embarrassed to explain.
"I've thought about it. I'll study hard for a year and take the college entrance exam next year to give it a try."
He was a little embarrassed.
"If that doesn't work, foreign ones will do."
Father Gu put down the information in his hand and said seriously: "No, you can try it this year."
"I can't do it. The college entrance examination is only a few months away. I haven't opened my textbooks for a long time. Even if I go next year, I may not be able to pass."
Father Gu shook his head.
"Knowledge will leave traces once you learn it. Believe in yourself. Besides, it's just a try. Just treat it as practice. It doesn't matter if you do poorly on the test. We can study at home for a year and then take the test again."
Gu's father said it very easily and did not have any strict requirements for Gu Qingchi.
Gu Qingchi looked a little uneasy and anxious. Only then did he realize that his life was about to get back on track. He would no longer waste time in a daze every day, no longer sit there every day, thinking about what to do today and what to do tomorrow, and relying on drugs and alcohol to get satisfaction.
He had planned it very well before, but now that he was really going to do it, he started to get scared. He was afraid that he had forgotten all the knowledge he had gained over the years. He was afraid that he would never be able to do the things that he could do easily before. He was afraid that he had completely gone off track and would never be able to return to the normal trajectory of life.
He had absolutely no confidence in this.
Mrs. Gu was a little shaken. She originally thought that Xiaoguai could do anything, but she thought that since the university was close, Xiaoguai could go home every day and live under her supervision. She felt at ease just thinking about it. But when she asked Gu Qingchi to prepare for the college entrance examination, she began to regret it. The college entrance examination was so stressful and studying was so tiring.
"Then we have to study. There are only a few months left. What a joke. Others take three years to study, but we only need a few months. Isn't that very tiring? We can use our previous grades to apply for foreign universities, find an easy major, and study casually. Foreign universities are also good, and we can move there."
Mrs. Gu was afraid that Gu Qingchi would be too tired, and now she thinks those foreign schools are also good.
"Mom, these schools are ranked higher than that one, so it's easier to apply. We don't need to work so hard, just study casually."
Gu Qingchi shook his head. He looked uneasy but very persistent. He was afraid but determined to face it.
"Mom, I really like that school."
He looked at Mrs. Gu, and everyone could see how nervous he was and how much courage he mustered.
"I want to give it a try."
…
Gu Qingchi decided to do it and started to go all out. He had a foundation in the past, so it was not difficult to pick it up. He did not need to make any supplement and could directly proceed to the stage of practicing questions. However, he had no confidence and was very nervous every day and did not dare to relax at all.
When Xie Luyu knew about this, he was very supportive. He stopped going out with Gu Qingchi and bought textbooks to study with Gu Qingchi. The two of them even took exams seriously and corrected each other's papers. The one with the higher score would get a star, and one star could be used to make a request to the other party.
Stars are hung on the avatars. There are as many stars as there are avatars. Two people change their avatars every two or three days.
The Gu family also cooperated with Gu Qingchi and found an empty room on the first floor for Gu Qingchi and put a desk in it. Then a few days later, they added one for Xie Luyu. Mrs. Gu even went so far as to ring the bell on time to create an atmosphere for Gu Qingchi.
Gu Qingchi reviewed step by step at home for several months, and even most of his conversations with Xie Luyu were Xie Luyu asking him random questions about knowledge points.
After the exam that day, Gu Qingchi's tense nerves finally relaxed and he slept from the afternoon until noon the next day.
Although Gu Qingchi himself has never had much confidence, he actually did quite well in the exam.
In the end, Gu Qingchi scored 703 points in the college entrance examination and was successfully admitted.
On the day when the college entrance examination results were announced, Mrs. Gu was smiling the whole day and kept praising Gu Qingchi, and Gu Xie nodded along.
Gu's father seemed calm on the surface. He just nodded after looking at the results and said they were not bad. But in fact, he was so happy that day that he specially edited his first circle of friends. What he wrote was very subtle - his youngest son was willful and insisted on taking the college entrance examination again, just for fun, and got a few points less than the last time. He also attached a picture of the results.
Then it received likes from bigwigs in various fields, and there were many comments below, and exchanges took place in the comments.
[If my son had half of this, I wouldn’t send him abroad. ]
【Mr. Gu’s children are smart, thumbs up.jpg.】
[Alas, my family’s money spent on going abroad was almost returned. ]
On that day, Gu's employees received collective bonuses, which attracted some attention.
On the first day of school, Gu Qingchi firmly rejected Mrs. Gu's proposal that the three of them should send Gu Qingchi to school together. He also rejected Xie Luyu. After discussion, it was Gu Xie who sent Gu Qingchi to school. Gu Xie won because he was free and strong, so he could help Gu Qingchi carry the luggage.
Gu Qingchi did not get any special treatment and lived in school. Even though Mrs. Gu was very worried, she confirmed again before leaving that he really was not living at home. His home was close to the school, an hour's drive away. He reported early and was the first to arrive. After Gu Xie put down his luggage for him, he went to study how to make the bed.
Gu Qingchi also came over to help, but was waved away by Gu Xie.
"You go clean it up first, I'll handle this, I have experience."
Gu Qingchi went to get the broom and started sweeping the floor. After sweeping, he was ready to mop the floor and put away the chairs one by one. Just when he was halfway through, the door was pushed open and a young man carrying a luggage bag came in, followed by a woman pulling a suitcase.
When the young man looked up, he saw Gu Qingchi holding a mop. He was shocked and took two or three steps back and closed the door. Along with the sound of the door closing, he heard a woman scream.
"My nose! Are you trying to murder your own sister? And why are you so stupid? Isn't this just your dormitory?"
The door was opened again, and a woman dressed in a professional suit covered her nose and pinched the door handle. This time, Gu Xie had already stood in front of Gu Qingchi, blocking him.
Gu Xie rolled up his suit sleeves and now he took over the work from Gu Qingchi and picked up the mop.
The door was closed again.
After a while, two more people came in, standing in a neat row. The one who spoke was the elder sister, in a very official manner.
"Hello, this student's parent."
"Hello."
Gu Xiechun had the parental mentality of building good relationships with the parents of the child's classmates, so he gritted his teeth and said a few polite words, and was even going to help make the bed. The young man leaned forward to say something, but was slapped back and rejected by his sister before he could open his mouth.
"It's okay, it's okay. He made the bed himself. I'll clean the room. I'm so sorry, you guys were the ones who cleaned it. I'll do it, I'll do it."
Gu Xie couldn't refuse, but there weren't many left anyway, so he just looked around.
"Give me your meal card and I'll go top it up for you."
Gu Qingchi had packed all his things and had nothing else to do, so he helped to clean up the place and was praised by his classmate's sister.
The young man waited until his sister left before he spoke to Gu Qingchi curiously.
"Are you that Gu Qingchi? I was shocked to see you. That was my sister just now, a violent person. She didn't know you, but your brother is her boss. When she saw your brother mopping the floor, she gasped and choked me to death."
The young man was a chatterbox, and after Gu Qingchi replied with just one or two sentences he could come up with a whole bunch of other things.
After Gu Xie came back, he didn't stop talking and started chatting with Gu Xie.
Gu Xie was originally worried that Gu Qingchi would not get along well with his classmates. Gu Qingchi is now quite famous, especially his face, which is almost known by young people. It is impossible for him to do so quietly. He was afraid that Gu Qingchi would not be able to fit in, but now he is a little relieved.
There was basically nothing else to do, so he gave some instructions to Gu Qingchi.
"…I've recharged my meal card. If I lose it, I'll go to the student center to get a replacement."
Gu Xie drew on the map as he spoke.
"And the electricity and internet bills have also been paid. I've paid for four years. Don't forget to put on sunscreen during military training, or you'll get sunburned. I bought you a box of water. There's no refrigerator here. I left a few pieces of cake for you. Eat quickly and share with your roommates."
"There is also a community next to the school. I bought an apartment with a refrigerator and air conditioning. I put food in the refrigerator and replace it regularly."
After Gu Xie left, the young man looked shocked and envious.
"I want to live outside, but the housing prices in the capital don't allow me to do that. My sister's fists won't allow me to do that either."
It seemed that to him, the shock of his roommate being a celebrity was not as great as the housing prices in the capital.
On the day Gu Qingchi entered school, the school's forum, which had been quiet for a long time, exploded. Gu Qingchi did not disguise himself when he came to register, and people recognized him and took photos along the way. He had been discovered long ago, and posts appeared every few minutes.
There was no military training in the first two days, but during those two days people kept finding excuses to come to his dormitory to look for someone. While they were looking for someone, their eyes were all looking towards Gu Qingchi, and some were even taking pictures while walking on the road.
Gu Qingchi was well prepared and was not very opposed to it.
Gu Qingchi has been on the hot search list for several days in a row.
【Gu Qingchi’s enrollment】
[x Big Campus Prince is freshly released]
【Gu Qingchi School Prince】
Not only fans were shocked, but netizens were also shocked.
[Oh my god, shouldn't he have graduated from high school a long time ago? It shouldn't be this year.]
[Who knows, I still don’t understand what happened back then. ]
Later, someone discovered that Gu Qingchi actually took the exam twice.
[So? He was admitted to the school that I only dared to dream about when I was innocent and ignorant in kindergarten twice? And he didn't register once?]
[My sister is in her third year of high school this year. She has never been nervous, but now she is full of energy and keeps talking about wanting to go to the same school as Chi Chi.]
[I am very realistic. This is obviously not a goal I can achieve with just hard work.]
[I am lucky enough to be in the same class with Gu Qingchi, and face such a beautiful lady every day.]
[The person above must be a big shot. My high school is the best in the city, but only two people were admitted this year...]
In the end, there was even a big inventory of the academic qualifications of people in the entertainment industry. Most of them graduated from film schools. In the end, Xie Luyu was found to be an outlier, who graduated from the Finance Department of an Ivy League school.
[Oh my god, I've been a fan of him for so many years, but I never knew he had such a high level of education.]
[It means that this has never been used for marketing, it is really amazing. 】
[I was wrong. I used to think that Xie Luyu was not worthy of Gu Qingchi. In my impression, Xie Luyu was just a rebellious and inspirational guy who didn’t even graduate from high school and bravely ventured into the entertainment industry and finally made it big. I don’t know why, maybe it’s because he gives people a down-to-earth feeling…]
[What are you thinking? Xie Luyu also has a good family background, and he is also from a wealthy family. It’s just that he doesn’t interact much with his family. I read gossip that he had a falling out with his family a long time ago, but he is also a wealthy man on his own.]
Netizens may discuss it, but Gu Qingchi’s campus life has just begun.
Brand new, full of hope and unknown.
…
"Okay, that's it for this class."
As soon as the teacher said the get out of class was over, the classroom suddenly became lively, people started moving, and students walked out in groups of three or four.
Gu Qingchi sat in his seat, stretched, and did not pack up and leave immediately.
He is now a sophomore. He was very nervous when he first entered the school, afraid that he would not fit in and that he would not be able to adapt. But in fact, it was only when he first entered the school that many people were curious about him. People often went to see him in class, and the teachers sometimes paid some attention to him.
After the initial period passed, everyone got used to it and he lived the same life as other students, peacefully and beautifully.
After packing up his things, the roommate greeted Gu Qingchi as he passed by.
"Xiao Chi, are you going back to the dormitory this weekend? If you do, I'll bring you dinner. I'm going to the cafeteria now. There's a new roast duck restaurant on the second floor of the third cafeteria. It tastes pretty good."
Gu Qingchi lives close to home and usually lives in school during the rest of the year. He goes home on weekends and occasionally lives in school on weekends as well. He has a good relationship with his roommates. Gu Xie paid four years of electricity and internet bills without asking them for money. His roommates felt embarrassed and often brought meals to Gu Qingchi.
He thanked his roommate first, then refused.
"No, I still have to go home today."
"It's great to be close to home. I'm going to eat first."
After saying that, my roommate left too. This was the last class in the afternoon, and the students were all rushing to eat, so the classroom was soon empty.
The weather was cool, the trees were lush and green, the windows were open, and the noisy voices of students could be heard from outside.
Everything is back on track.
Gu Qingchi realized this fact very clearly at this moment, and felt that his heart was as full of vitality as the trees outside the window.
Gu Qingchi was in a good mood. He sat in the classroom for a while and was about to pack up and go home. Then his cell phone rang. He looked down and saw it was a WeChat message from Xie Luyu.
There are two little stars left on Xie Luyu's profile picture, and one on Gu Qingchi's profile picture.
[Do you have classes tonight? I want to use a little star to go to a barbecue with you.]
Gu Qingchi was a little surprised that Xie Luyu had accepted a role in a play and had already joined the crew.
[Aren’t you filming in city x? ]
Xie Luyu replied very quickly.
[The crew said they are going to have a dinner party tonight and not filming. This is not important. I have something to do now. Wait for me for a few minutes.]
After a while, Xie Luyu sent another message to Gu Qingchi, still sounding aggrieved.
[You are teaching Class 4 today, right? Which classroom are you in? Can you come pick me up? I was stopped by the security guard at the bottom of the teaching building. He said I was sneaking around. I said I was here to see my boyfriend, but he didn't even listen to my explanation.]
Gu Qingchi replied with a confused cat emoticon.
Then there are two short words.
【Wait.】
He packed up his books and rushed downstairs. He felt amused but also confused. Normally, the school allowed outsiders to enter, so why was Xie Luyu the only one detained?
When he got downstairs, he roughly understood why.
Xie Luyu was squatting in the security room, looking very aggrieved. He was wearing a hat, a mask, and sunglasses. There was a security guard sitting in front of the table looking at him. He looked a bit old, holding an old-fashioned enamel pot, wearing glasses, and there was a newspaper in front of him, and he was saying something.
"... What star? I don't understand. Anyway, you have to tell me clearly what you are here for. I can't let you go. A few days ago, a thief came and stole the students' things. I have to be responsible for the students--"
Xie Luyu straightened his back when he saw Gu Qingchi.
"Look, this is my boyfriend, and you still don't believe it."
The security guard didn't listen to him.
"Do you know him, little classmate?"
"Yes, I know him. Sorry to trouble you."
Compared to Xie Luyu who was dressed like a thief, Gu Qingchi looked much more student-like.
The security guard pushed his glasses and became noticeably kinder to Gu Qingchi.
"Little classmate, I need to see your student ID first."
Gu Qingchi handed the student ID card over from under the window. The security guard took it, took a look at it, and when he returned it, he glanced at Xie Luyu.
"Young students, please be more careful. There are many scammers in society now. You students are easy to deceive and believe everything. You will be fooled by others' sweet words. Don't go out with others at night and keep your valuables safe."
The security guard tried to persuade Gu Qingchi earnestly, fearing that he might go astray.
Gu Qingchi listened carefully and nodded, and finally smiled when the old man finished speaking.
"My parents know about it, it's okay, he just dresses a little weird."
Finally, I thanked him sincerely.
The security guard was relieved, took a sip of tea, and waved his hands vigorously.
"Your parents have seen it, so it should be fine. It's somewhat reliable. Then you can go. It's getting dark. Be careful on the road."
Although Xie Luyu was detained, he actually chatted with the old man for a long time. After a while, he knew that the old man had a precious daughter and a granddaughter at home, and also raised a mynah bird that was good at learning other things but learned to curse very quickly. When others told it to control its tongue, the old man was reluctant to let it go and never gave in. The old man was also the chef at home. They discussed how to make delicious dishes and said goodbye to each other before leaving.
"Uncle, goodbye. Try the braised pork ribs I told you about some other time. I guarantee it will taste better than your previous recipe."
Then he took a few quick steps to catch up with Gu Qingchi and told Gu Qingchi about the interesting things that happened in the past few days. As they walked, he rubbed against Gu Qingchi and squeezed close to him. He was wearing more clothes and looked like a fluffy dog.
"...That old man is really a man with a heart that loves the sun. He will definitely get full marks in the ideological and political education exam. He even sang the national anthem with me, and he sang it passionately."
On the way, Gu Qingchi couldn't help laughing when he heard it, and then he asked Xie Luyu why he came.
"The fastest high-speed train will arrive in the early morning, right? Aren't you still filming at noon?"
"By plane. I'm flexible. I flew to H City and then flew here."
Xie Luyu was very proud, and his face looked like he wanted to be praised.
"It only takes five hours. I've even taken tomorrow off and postponed my performance. We're going to have a barbecue tonight, and I can go to the hospital with you tomorrow."
Xie Luyu remembered the day when Gu Qingchi went to see the doctor. It would be better to say that he rushed back specially because he was thinking about Gu Qingchi going to see the doctor.
"Then these are two little stars. You have used up all your little stars."
Xie Luyu couldn't believe what he heard. After a long while, he hummed and said "oh". If he had ears, they would have drooped by now.
Gu Qingchi ignored the clingy dog who was still mumbling about the absence of Little Star, and sent a message to his family’s WeChat group while walking.
The last message was Mrs. Gu asking Gu Qingchi whether he would come home for dinner.
[Mom, we are going to have a barbecue tonight and won’t be going back. ]
I just posted this and wanted to add something, but then Xie Luyu came up to me, feeling warm, like a human-shaped heat pad.
Mrs. Gu noticed after a few minutes that Gu Qingchi sometimes went to dinner with classmates on weekends. If he couldn't make it home in time, he would stay in the apartment near the school, but would come back the next day.
[Then mom is going shopping with your Aunt Li. Chichi, take care of yourself. There are some sweets that mom left in the apartment, but don’t eat too much.]
