Shen Beian and his two companions arrived at Qingjin High School. Meng Zhaojun showed something to the security guard at the gate, who opened the gate and the SUV drove straight in.
As soon as he got out of the car, a young man in a lake-blue robe walked over and greeted him, "Fifth Master Shen, Assistant Meng, Third Young Master Su." He bowed respectfully.
Shen Bei'an didn't know who this person was, and he followed Meng Zhaojun in bowing.
“Young Master Yun, the Third Young Master,” Meng Zhaojun introduced, “Sir, this is the Third Young Master of the Yun family of Gusu, and also Ninth Master’s student, Yun Hanzhou.”
Shen Bei'an crammed some information about Gu Jia yesterday.
Grandpa Gu has two younger sisters and one younger brother.
There were nine people in Gu Nanyan's father's generation.
The youngest of them is the principal of Qingjin High School, who was transferred from Xihua City.
The youngest son of Grandpa Gu's second sister.
Yun Hanzhou!
The third male!
If the second male lead was someone the female lead admired in her youth, then the third male lead is the one whose story is the most heartbreaking.
Among the fans of the characters from the original book.
He has the most wives, and I don't know why so many people like a marginal character.
Then comes the male lead, the female lead, and the third male lead!
Unfortunately, the second male lead later married someone else, which the author considered a "strong-strong alliance".
It fits the character of the second male lead very well.
Yun Hanzhou, the third male lead, was a few months younger than the female lead, and his final fate... seems to be that he was laid to rest on Fuyun Island.
Thinking of this, Shen Beian looked at Yun Hanzhou with a hint of pity.
Yun Hanzhou was puzzled. "Why is Fifth Master Shen looking at me like that?"
Being a young man, he asked directly.
"Ah, no, it's nothing," Shen Bei'an denied.
Could he say, "I know you will eventually die on Fuyun Island"?
If he were to say that out loud, people would think he was cursing him.
Moreover, the plot has completely fallen apart, and Yun Hanzhou's fate may have changed as well.
"Fifth Master, please." Yun Hanzhou gestured to lead the three of them.
As they approached the principal's office, the third young master of the Su family, who had been walking around casually just moments before, straightened his collar.
Yun Hanzhou knocked on the door. "Master, Fifth Master Shen has arrived."
Shen Beian noticed that Yun Hanzhou addressed him as "Master" rather than "Teacher".
"Come in." A clear and gentle voice greeted me.
Yun Hanzhou opened the door and gestured for Shen Bei'an to go in first.
Shen Bei'an went inside, followed by Meng Zhaojun, Su Mingheng, and Yun Hanzhou.
The first thing you see is a young man kneeling on a cushion, holding a Ru kiln porcelain cup, with a chessboard in front of him.
He's playing chess with himself!
It is the traditional chess of the empire, not the more widely spread Go.
Shen Beian walked over, bowed, and greeted his uncle, saying, "An greets Uncle Ji."
"Greetings, Ninth Master." Meng Zhaojun was an adopted daughter of the Gu family and was more familiar with this Ninth Master, so she addressed him directly as "Ninth Master."
As for Su Mingheng, it's because the Su family is an affiliated family of the Gu family, so calling him that is not wrong.
"Get up." Gu Xiuwei looked up and beckoned to Shen Beian, "Come and play a game of chess with me."
Aside from not having blue eyes, he bears a three- or four-point resemblance to his father-in-law.
And this person is way too young!
Shen Bei'an: What kind of immortal arts have the people of the Gu family cultivated? How come they are all so young?
Leaving aside his parents-in-law, even Old Master Gu is about the same age as his parents.
She really looked like she was at most in her forties or fifties, but she seemed to have a great attitude and looked very young.
This one too, looks about the same age as him, right?
He's at most five or six years older.
“Uncle Ji, An doesn’t know much about Imperial Chess… he only knows the rules,” Fifth Master Shen said truthfully.
There was no way around it; just looking at this game, even though he had only learned a little, he could clearly see that these were completely different styles.
And this was actually made by one person!
He won't embarrass himself by showing off.
"It's alright, I'll just take a walk." Gu Xiuwei didn't seem to mind at all. "Would you like something to drink?" He waved again, gesturing for Shen Beian to sit opposite him.
What else could Shen Beian say? His elders had already said it twice; it would be ungrateful of him to refuse again.
He still knows how to kneel.
"Whatever you like." Shen Bei'an glanced at the two people behind him.
Meng Zhaojun said, "Ninth Master, now that the gentleman has been delivered, you should go back and report to the President." She bowed again.
Gu Xiuwei didn't press the matter, "Let's go back."
"I take my leave, Your Majesty." Meng Zhaojun stepped back and left.
As for Su Mingheng, "Ninth Master, there's no need for Heng. The production team should have arrived by now. Heng should go and discuss with them how to proceed."
For no reason, even though this Ninth Master is in education, why does he give me such a strange feeling?
"Okay, go ahead."
As soon as Gu Xiuwei finished speaking, Su Mingheng bowed and walked away, looking as if some ferocious beast was chasing him.
Shen Beian was shocked. Why did they all suddenly leave?
Is he the only one left?
Oh no, there's also the third male lead.
"Hanzhou, go brew a pot of Wuyi Red Robe tea."
"Yes, Master."
Yun Hanzhou went to prepare the tea-making materials, and at this time, only the two of them remained in the wooden carving room.
"What's wrong, Bei'an? Is he at a loss for what to do?" Gu Xiuwei gestured for Bei'an to make a move again.
Shen Beian instinctively gripped the jade pendant, a hint of embarrassment on his face. With his limited knowledge, he truly couldn't continue down this path.
He had no choice but to tell the truth: "Father-in-law, you flatter me. I really don't know how to get there."
Those alluring peach blossom eyes stared straight at Gu Xiuwei.
