After being socially dead once, I thought that the matter had come to an end. The two of them strolled around the city again. As usual, Lin Xu did not feel proud of being the top scholar in Jiangcheng. It seemed like a very ordinary thing.
"Do you want to go back and tell your family?" Gu Jinzhi felt a little embarrassed that he was still monopolizing Lin Xu. Although Lin Xu felt guilty for leaving him behind just now, he stayed with him all the time.
But Gu Jinzhi was really not such a stingy person. After all, he was in his twenties.
Gu Jinzhi had been with Lin Xu for so long, and she knew that her boyfriend's family only had his grandparents at home all year round, and his parents were busy working in other places, so he had no doubts about Lin Xu's ordinary family background, and he even often felt a little distressed.
At this time, if he had won the first place in the exam, he would have rushed home to show off, after all, it was a very exciting and happy event.
"They should have known it, but I still want to go back and take a look." Lin Xu also thought that he should go back first.
Gu Jinzhi accompanied him back, originally planning to just send him downstairs and leave, after all, he was still embarrassed to meet Lin Xu's grandparents, especially since the other party's family would definitely find out about his existence in the future. If he said they were friends now, he would seem very foolish and a liar.
Just as the two of them walked into the community, an enthusiastic neighbor who was chatting casually saw Lin Xu and hurriedly said to him: "Xiao Xu, you are finally back. Several people came to your house today. It seems that your grandparents are still entertaining guests now."
"I heard that the teacher from the school in the capital is coming. Anyway, you should go home quickly."
The enthusiastic neighbors urged him with envy on their faces. I didn't pay much attention to this child before, but I didn't expect him to be so amazing all of a sudden.
"Huh?" Lin Xu was stunned.
Gu Jinzhi was also stunned. Still entertaining guests? He thought that the incident in the morning was rare enough. After all, he didn't dare to believe it at first.
Gu Jinzhi was reluctant to go home immediately. He wanted to see the world. What was going on?
So Gu Jinzhi simply pulled Lin Xu upstairs and whispered in his ear, "Don't worry, I won't expose myself." After that, he made a huffing gesture, fearing that Lin Xu would mind him coming over.
He knew that now was definitely not the right time, as Lin Xu hadn't even started college yet, and their sexual orientation was not something that was easy for their parents to accept.
He didn't have to worry, as he had already come out to his family, so he had no pressure at all. But Lin Xu was still so young, he certainly couldn't be honest, and he could understand that.
Just as Gu Jinzhi could understand why Lin Xu deleted his boyfriend after she found out he was a high school student.
In fact, Lin Xu was indeed worried about the problem of falling in love too early, but looking at Gu Jinzhi's dark eyes in the corridor. He thought to himself, since they met, he had done so many outrageous things that he couldn't even count them. Was he still the child from someone else's family? Lin Xu felt that he had long ceased to be that person, and he didn't live for that title.
He had lived in accordance with the order that was praised by others for a long, long time, and had never violated the rules. But if a difficult question was placed in front of him, right now, his family knew about their relationship and strongly disagreed, what would he do?
He thought that if it wasn't for the emotional problems between the two of them, he would definitely not break up.
As the child of the family, he thought he was very competent. He never made his grandparents worry, and he took care of himself. In the future, he would definitely not add burden to the family, and he would also give back to the family. So he also had the freedom to be an independent person, and his family should respect his freedom to love and marry.
"Zhizhi, I'm not the good student you imagined me to be. It's okay." Lin Xu said this instead, and gently held Gu Jinzhi's hand.
He was actually very sensitive, and he could sense what Gu Jinzhi was thinking.
The other party felt that he was still unable to take responsibility, and that he was timid when he deleted someone last time, so he said this to reassure him. He must have felt that he was a good student who couldn't resist his parents, after all, his usual style was full of student spirit.
Zhizhi was very close to him, but at the same time she didn't trust him that much. Lin Xu also understood that Gu Jinzhi had such an impression.
Last time he was indeed timid, but he was timid and thought that three months of love could not cope with their objective gap, not that he could not bear the responsibility of love.
Gu Jinzhi saw his deep and colorful eyes, and suddenly felt as if he was seen through, and his heart shrank. He wanted to maintain this relationship, so he was willing to make some concessions, and he also felt that the other party needed his concessions. Lin Xu saw it, and there was no long-winded explanation that was exposed, but Gu Jinzhi understood Lin Xu's short sentence.
He would not become a victim of such a bullshit reason.
"Just be natural." Lin Xu said, and led Gu Jinzhi out of the corridor.
There is no need to expose it deliberately now, but there is no need to hurt Zhizhi's heart in order to prevent grandpa and grandma from finding out. If Zhizhi cared about this, then she wouldn't have to hide like before, and not let Gu Jinzhi have to explain to him when she wanted to come to his house.
When Lin Xu and his friend appeared, they found that this floor of their house was very lively. The door of the house was not closed, and Mrs. Wang next door was standing by the door chatting with the people inside. There were also several other neighbors he didn't know well.
When they saw Lin Xu, their eyes lit up and they hurriedly said, "Hey! Our top scholar is back."
As they said that, they hurried to pull Lin Xu. Lin Xu had to awkwardly pull Gu Jinzhi and forcefully loosen their hands.
Of course, Lin Xu was not used to such a warm welcome. In his previous life, his family had always lived in a single-family villa and would not be disturbed at all. Even if relatives came to ask, his mother would handle it.
Gu Jinzhi stood beside him and watched the excitement curiously. In front of the elders who were much older than him, Gu Jinzhi's domineering aura was ineffective. After all, they came for his boyfriend, so a poor student like Gu Jinzhi just wanted to take part in the good times.
When they reached the door, they found that it was even more lively inside, with two groups of people talking about their own things.
First, a young man was arguing "friendly" with another man with a work badge on his chest.
"We came here in the morning, and classmate Lin Xu has agreed to come to our Q University. You should go find other outstanding classmates in your school." The young man looked very young. He was a classmate left here by the teacher of Q University to accompany the elderly.
Sure enough, the people next door came in the afternoon, but unfortunately they were still a step behind.
Jiangcheng is a municipality with a strong educational atmosphere, and the top scorer every year attracts competition from all parties. Jiangcheng's test papers are self-made, and they are always difficult. The marking is also very strict, and the score is very valuable.
The first place score is 722, but the second place score is only 702. This 20-point difference in the college entrance examination is simply a gap.
You should know that in previous years, Jiangcheng's top scorers rarely scored above 710, and there was even a history of 690+, so they especially wanted to compete for Lin Xu.
In addition, the students here generally perform very well after entering college, and many have become well-known academic gods in the school, and many students have made great achievements in scientific research. Q University and J University certainly don't want to give in to each other.
"You haven't filled in your major yet, so it's okay for Lin Xu to change his major." The teacher from J University retorted unyieldingly.
His classmates were still very young, so he could only call his teacher and ask him to come over quickly. At the same time, he saw Lin Xu at the door and tried to get close to him: "Junior brother Lin Xu, I am also a graduate of the Affiliated High School. I am also very familiar with your class teacher. You can ask him about the situation in our Q University. When you come here in the future, you can come to me for anything."
Mrs. Wang outside the door was already honored. Although she was envious, after all, her neighbor had won the top spot in the exam, so she would have face if she could tell others about it.
She and other neighbors were still persuading Grandma Lin and her husband: "Big sister, you will be right if you listen to me. Let Xiao Xu choose finance as his major. I tell you that you can make a lot of money if you study finance. I know a distant relative whose child is studying finance at J University. After graduation, his annual salary is 1 million or more."
"Yes, yes, or you can become a doctor. You can also make money with a high social status." They talked at once.
Grandma Lin was still a little confused. She had never thought that her grandson could score so well in the exam.
"Xiao Xu, your grandma doesn't understand, but you definitely do. Just choose finance. If my son scores so high, I will definitely let him choose finance." Mrs. Wang saw that Grandma Lin couldn't say anything, so she just pulled Lin Xu to talk.
Her spit almost sprayed on Lin Xu's face.
Gu Jinzhi stood aside and laughed in his heart, is this the treatment of a god of study? But why does his boyfriend look so stiff? Hahahaha!
"Xiao Xu, is this your friend?"
Gu Jinzhi shouted, "Hello, grandma." His presence was not very noticeable at this juncture, after all, the center of the topic was Lin Xu.
"Xiao Xu, you can choose whatever you want. Talk to your eldest brother in the evening. Your grandfather and I don't know anything and it won't affect you." At this important juncture, Grandma Lin directly ignored what Mrs. Wang and the others said. She knew that her family was poor when she was a child and she didn't study much, so she couldn't make the decision for Lin Xu at this juncture.
It was Xiao Xu's own efforts that led to such a result, and they had no right to interfere.
Although Gu Jinzhi felt that finance was okay, he still whispered in Lin Xu's ear: "Don't listen to them, just do whatever you want to do, I'll be there for you in the future, you know I'm quite rich." No matter what major he is in, Gu Jinzhi can arrange a job for him, otherwise wouldn't it be a waste of time to go to this class and be his boyfriend?
Lin Xu's family is ordinary, and Gu Jinzhi is worried that Lin Xu will be too concerned about this and will not be happy in college.
At this time, Gu Jinzhi threw all the teachings of his eldest brother behind his head, and he was willing to be a gigolo for his boyfriend. How can a poor man be so cunning? His boyfriend is very good.
Because of Gu Jinzhi's whispers, Lin Xu's sense of social phobia was relieved a lot, and there seemed to be no chattering around him. Gu Jinzhi speaks straightforwardly, and Lin Xu feels a little helpless when he hears him. A healthy relationship cannot be like this.
Lin Xu is rational and firm in his beliefs. Of course, he will not give up his goals for some external factors.
Although there is a huge gap between his family background and Gu Jinzhi's, his family is only well-off. But thinking about how to make more money will not only fail to solve the problem, but will make him lose himself.
A clear direction and hard work will eventually bring fame, money and other external things.
In his previous life, Lin Xu was a rising star in the research institute and was highly valued. He was a top talent willing to return from abroad. Although Lin Xu said that he didn't make much money, he was in opposition to the family business. In order to retain him, the institute offered him a very high salary, with an annual salary of eight figures.
He could have received various benefits such as children's schooling and housing allocation, but Lin Xu's family was already very rich, and he didn't dare to live in a busy residential area as he was a social phobic, and he was also a single parent, so he didn't need any of them.
As fate would have it, Lin Xu had overcome them one by one and was particularly calm about accepting the down-to-earth life
of ordinary people. "I know." He looked calm, but secretly touched Gu Jinzhi's hand. Today, he began to believe that a boss like Zhizhi could be deceived. Who would always say "I'm very rich"? He was like a fresh little fat sheep.
Gu Jinzhi pinched him back proudly, thinking that her boyfriend was reassured by her own strength. She was in a good mood. He was indeed a very useful boyfriend!
