Chapter 45 Chapter 45
【54 days left until the college entrance examination】
Ding-ling-ling——
The bell for the first class in the afternoon rang.
Gu Zeye hasn't arrived at class yet.
He Xianyu came to the corridor and was about to call Gu Zeye when he found a familiar figure standing under the wall not far away. The man also threw his schoolbag out.
Oh shit!
He ran downstairs quickly and arrived at the scene before Gu Zeye was about to escape successfully.
A handsome boy in a summer school uniform climbed up the banyan tree and was about to use the tree's height to jump over the wall. The branches and leaves were lush and green, and the early summer sun jumped through the gaps between the leaves and fell on his shoulders, speckled and bright.
The whole scene looks like a screenshot from a youth movie.
"Gu Er, what are you doing? Go back to class!" He Xianyu stopped him loudly.
Gu Zeye looked down and asked, "Why are you going back?"
He Xianyu replied without hesitation: "Study."
Gu Zeye's suppressed emotions seemed to explode with his words. "Study! Study again! Haven't I studied hard enough these days? I only got this low score! What the hell am I studying for!"
He Xianyu never expected that after the provincial examination results came out, the art students who scored more than 300 points did not collapse, but he, a student who scored 503, collapsed first.
He Xianyu advised kindly, "Your grades have improved a lot. There are still more than 50 days left. As long as you keep working hard, you will definitely be able to get into a good university."
Gu Zeye asked quietly, "Can I get into the university you want to go to?"
After the first mock exam, the purpose of Gu Zeye's efforts was to go to the same university as He Xianyu. However, in the face of the huge gap, all his efforts were meaningless. He would never be able to go to the top 2 university that He Xianyu dreamed of.
He Xianyu did not answer his question directly: "There are many good universities in Beijing."
"It's boring! I won't study anymore!" Gu Zeye threw out all the words that he had been holding back in his heart, "He Xianyu, have you ever really cared about what I think? Have you ever cared about me? All you care about is studying! Nerd!"
He Xianyu asked himself, he had been immersed in the sea of questions during this period, neglecting his friends. He didn't realize that Jingchen had received so many love letters, and he didn't know that Gu Zeye was suffering in his heart.
"Gu Er, let's skip school together." He Xianyu smiled slightly.
Gu Zeye was stunned for a while, then smiled a bit foolishly, "Aren't you afraid that I, a bad student, will lead you astray?"
"You can give it a try." He Xianyu stretched out his hand to him, "Pull me."
After leaving school, the two took a taxi to a racing venue in the suburbs of Beijing.
Gu Zeye couldn't hide his thoughts at all, the corners of his lips were always raised 45 degrees, and the smile in his eyes and eyebrows couldn't be suppressed. He led He Xianyu to a red Ferrari sports car, his eyes were full of excitement and excitement that He Xianyu had never seen before. "He Xianyu, let me introduce you, this is the wife I mentioned before, Alpha."
The limited edition Ferrari has perfectly cut body lines and sharp edges, like a classical sculpture. He Xianyu has no interest in cars, but she couldn't help but touch it and praised it, "It's really beautiful!"
"How can my wife not be pretty?" Gu Zeye opened the car door, put his left hand behind his back, bowed slightly, and made a graceful invitation, "Get in the car, I'll take you for a ride!"
After confirming that He Xianyu had fastened her seat belt, Gu Zeye stepped on the accelerator, and the speed on the dashboard suddenly shot up. The Ferrari sports car flew out like an arrow from a bow.
At that moment, He Xianyu's heart also flew out.
He Xianyu had ridden Gu Zeye's kart before. The top speed of a kart is 80 kilometers per hour. The top speed of a top-level racing car can reach 960 kilometers per hour. He didn't know how fast Gu Zeye was going, and he was thinking: If this was him in his previous life, he would have had increased brain pressure and died before he even got to the hospital.
Gu Zeye intended to show off his skills in front of He Xianyu. He accelerated, changed gears, and drove at high speed, demonstrating perfect drifting skills at the corners.
The sports car drove off the track, sped across the road, and finally stopped on a hillside in the suburbs.
When he got off the car, He Xianyu's face was pale and his legs were as soft as two noodles. If Gu Zeye hadn't helped him, he would have collapsed on the grass.
Gu Zeye laughed out loud, "Squad leader who is not afraid of ghosts is afraid of water and extreme sports. Next time I'll take you to ride the bungee jumping machine."
"No! I dare not." He Xianyu waved his hand.
In the fields under the hillside, the rape flowers have not yet turned into rapeseeds. Clusters of golden little flowers dot the lush fields, like nature's sand paintings, flowing with a strong sense of summer.
As the sun sets, the fields, rape flowers, small houses and the afterglow intersect and echo each other, forming a picturesque suburban beauty.
He Xianyu sat on the ground, looking out at the beautiful scenery, and asked softly, "Gu Er, have you ever thought about what you will do in the future?"
Gu Zeye leaned against the car door, his long legs casually crossed, "I want to be a professional racing driver, but my dad won't let me. Although my dad wants me to go to college in China, my sister secretly told me that he had already applied for me to an Ivy League school in the United States. I plan to study business administration, and then return to China to help my sister manage the family business. It doesn't matter if I don't do well, anyway, my sister has taken over the company, and I can just be an idle second-generation rich man."
He Xianyu was not surprised. In the novel, Gu Zeye was a sea turtle, with the title of general manager, but he did nothing, always hanging around the protagonist, Shou, and even working in the protagonist's cafe.
Gu Zeye looked around and saw rape flowers everywhere, full of vitality.
Unlike his life which he could foresee the end of.
"You find it funny too. My father started from scratch and built such a huge business empire. He is such a courageous and knowledgeable man, but he treats his son in an old-fashioned way."
Now that I have talked about some of my worries, I feel much better.
He Xianyu turned his head, looked at Gu Zeye, and asked, "Have you told your father about your thoughts?"
"I've said that, but my dad is very stubborn. He always thinks I'm a little brat who knows nothing." Gu Zeye tried to find the reason from himself, "Maybe it's because I've accomplished nothing since I was a child and I love to get into trouble, so my dad has no confidence in me. In fact, I also want to be as good as my sister and be the pride of my parents, but I may be born to be a idiot."
The arrogant young man Gu Er, at this moment, had deep sadness in his eyes.
He Xianyu realized that, in fact, he had never really understood Gu Zeye.
The two of them opened their hearts and talked a lot, until the night fell completely, Gu Zeye reluctantly ended this "date".
"Where do you want to go for dinner? I'll treat you. After all, it was me who kidnapped you." Gu Zeye opened the passenger door. "Do you think Director Guo will go crazy if he can't contact us? Will he think we eloped?"
Gu Zeye was pleased with his own words and smiled happily.
He Xianyu turned off his cell phone when he left school. He couldn't imagine how many text messages and calls he would receive when he turned it on. He rubbed his temples and said distressedly, "Teacher Xiao is probably very angry. The consequences will be serious."
Gu Zeye assured him, "He is just a paid person to record a variety show, why is he angry? He is not a real class teacher."
"He is my brother after all. Please don't have conflicts with him in the future, okay? It's hard for me to live in the middle." He Xianyu asked him sincerely.
Gu Zeye made a concession for the first time, "Okay, for your sake."
When they arrived at the city center, Gu Zeye needed to have his sports car serviced, and He Xianyu suggested going to a nearby bookstore to buy some books. The two agreed on a time and place to meet, and then separated temporarily.
——
Gu Junshan had just finished an administrative meeting and was about to leave work when his secretary called him on the internal line, saying that a student named He Xianyu wanted to see him.
"Please ask him to come up." Gu Junshan added, "Be sure to be polite."
In sharp contrast to the luxury of the lobby, Gu Junshan's office is decorated very simply. The cold black and white decor is spacious and bright. In front of the large floor-to-ceiling glass window is a red sandalwood desk. In front of the desk is a dark brown sofa tea table, which is low-key yet elegant.
When He Xianyu came up, Gu Junshan had already made tea.
The elegant fragrance of tea fills the entire office.
Without any unnecessary pleasantries, Gu Junshan got straight to the point: "The production team contacted me and said Zeye took you to skip school. I'm sorry, but I spoiled my son and he has become lawless."
At this time, Gu Junshan was no longer a business tycoon who dominated the business world, but an old father who was worried about his son.
He Xianyu took the teacup handed to her by Gu Junshan with both hands, "Uncle Gu, don't blame him. I took the liberty to come to you today because I wanted to say what Zeye didn't dare to say to you."
"He wants to go racing again, right?" It was a question, but the tone was very affirmative.
Gu Junshan had been in a high position for a long time, and just an ordinary eye contact made people feel a strong oppression, as if a thousand-pound boulder was pressing on your back, forcing you to bend down and lower your head.
He Xianyu tried her best to overcome the urge to look away and said sincerely: "Uncle Gu, perhaps you don't realize that having such an excellent father and sister is a huge pressure for Zeye. He wants to be your pride, but he disappoints you again and again, and he himself is very sad."
Gu Junshan frowned, "Did he tell you that?"
He Xianyu nodded. "He talked to me a lot this afternoon. I can see that he loves racing very much, but you don't support him to pursue a professional career, which makes him very painful."
"If he likes racing, he can treat it as a hobby. What can a professional racing driver achieve?" Gu Junshan couldn't understand why Gu Zeye was so stubborn. He had clearly paved the easiest path for him, so why did he have to take on such a dangerous and difficult career? Wouldn't it be more comfortable to sit in an office than to be exposed to the wind and sun on the racetrack?
He Xianyu's voice was not loud, but every word he spoke was very clear: "Uncle Gu, I remember the autobiography you gave me said that when the real economy was in full swing, you borrowed a huge sum of money to engage in e-commerce. At that time, someone who didn't understand you said to you, it's so convenient to buy things in physical stores, what's the point of engaging in e-commerce? Do you remember how you answered him?"
Gu Junshan had been in the business world for many years and had gone through all the ups and downs. He believed that his heart had been cultivated to be as calm as an ancient well. However, He Xianyu's words were like a stone falling into this ancient well, causing ripples that lasted for a long time.
"You said that success is not something you do for others to see. Doing what you love, no matter what the result is, is a success for you." He Xianyu put the teacup on the table and continued, "Uncle Gu, please trust Zeye more. He has your blood flowing in his veins. Maybe he won't become a business genius in this life, but he can also excel in certain fields and become your pride."
Gu Junshan frowned, thought for a long time, and then sighed. "Ze Ye was very naughty when he was young and couldn't sit still. Only karting could calm him down. In order to support his hobby, I built the best karting venue in China, and later sent him abroad to learn the best racing technology. Ze Ye should have told you that he participated in the International F4 Championship at the age of 15 and won the championship. At that time, a lot of friends congratulated me, saying that I gave birth to a racing genius, and Ze Ye had the hope of becoming the first Chinese racing driver to participate in F1."
When he said this, Gu Junshan's face was full of pride and pride.
"In fact, at that time I wanted to train him to become the best racing driver in China and even in the world. This was also Sawano's dream. But during the F3 rally, the car lost control and overturned, sliding off the track in the opposite direction. Sawano was seriously injured in the accident. If he hadn't been rescued in time, I would have lost him forever. After the car accident, he stayed in the hospital for a full six months." Gu Junshan still has lingering fears when he recalls the accident.
Gu Junshan looked at He Xianyu. He almost yelled at his son, but spoke softly to He Xianyu. "Xianyu, you are still young and don't understand the feelings of being a parent. I just want my son to live in peace and health."
The two sides have different positions and look at the issue from different angles.
He Xianyu had said everything he wanted to say. He stood up and said, "I have an appointment with Zeye to meet in front of Jingmao Hotel in half an hour. You can go and have a good chat with him. Maybe he has never told you that you are the one he has always been pursuing and he loves you very much."
As he was about to leave the office, He Xianyu heard Gu Junshan ask behind him: "Xianyu, why are you speaking for Zeye?"
He smiled and said, "He once risked his life to stand up for me. I knew he would be my good friend for life."
