In the villa.
Gu Yuan and Xiao Ning were looking at each other.
After a while, Xiao Ning suddenly came back to his senses.
He turned his face with difficulty and looked at Ru Min.
"Minmin, the friend you mentioned earlier is Gu Shen, right?"
"Gu Shen?" Ru Min blinked, "Is this Gu Yuan's nickname? That's not right... isn't his nickname Xiao Yuanzi..."
After sitting down, Xiao Ning finally figured it out.
And Gu Yuan, recalling what Ru Min said last night, finally understood what was going on.
He looked at Xiao Ning and felt a little funny.
Xiao Ning lowered his head, wanting to find a crack in the ground and crawl in!
Looking at Minmin who looked confused, Xiao Ning began to hesitate whether he should tell her the real situation.
If the truth is told.
Minmin should be the most social person...
"Xiao Ning, in short, Gu Yuan is the friend I mentioned. Let's see, is there a way for him to stay in the martial arts academy?" Ru Min saw that Xiao Ning didn't speak for a long time, and he became anxious and began to urge.
Xiao Ning looked at her deeply and smiled bitterly.
"Miss Minmin, please stop teasing me."
"When did I start joking with you? I'm serious! We've known each other for so many years. If you don't agree, I'm not done with you!" Ru Minmei stared.
Xiao Ning looked helpless.
Miss Xu, do you still dare to say that you are not playing with me?
The person sitting in front of you now is Gu Shen!
Do you actually think that Gu Shen will be kicked out of the martial arts academy because of insufficient strength?
Xiao Ning can guarantee that if Xingwuyuan really dares to do this, the other three martial arts academies will definitely send banners to Ji Qingyu, and then beat Gu Yuan to the point of brain collapse because of his final affiliation...
You know absolutely nothing about the horror of Gu Shen!
However, Xiao Ning also understood.
He looked at Gu Yuan and asked curiously: "Gu Shen, are you really planning to graduate?"
Gu Yuan smiled and waved his hand.
"No need to be so polite, just call me Gu Yuan."
"Is this...appropriate?" Xiao Ning's eyes lit up and she thought to herself that if this was the case, wouldn't it mean that the distance between herself and Gu Shen had been narrowed?
Xu Chai looked at Xiao Ning's current reaction, squinting his eyes thoughtfully.
After all, he is an old fox who has been working hard in the business world for many years. From Xiao Ning's current reaction, he can also see some information. First of all, Xiao Ning really respects Gu Yuan, and this respect is not fake in front of Gu Yuan, but comes from the heart.
He still knows a little about Xiao Ning. He is also a proud and arrogant person. He is still very good at being a prefecture-level student. It is because Xiao Ning was born in the Xiao family that the status of the Xiao family in Star City has increased. .
But for such a proud and arrogant young man, he actually respected Gu Yuan from the bottom of his heart. He immediately realized something.
"Minmin, I didn't expect that you actually knew Gu Shen." Xiao Ning looked at Ru Min and said with a smile, "Do you still remember what I said to you when we were outside?"
Ru Min thought about it seriously and suddenly his eyes widened.
"You don't want to tell me that the person you are talking about is Gu Yuan, right?"
"Not bad!" Xiao Ning said with a smile, "If there is really a student in Star City Martial Arts Academy who can change the decision made by the dean, that person must be Gu Shen!"
When he spoke, he looked at Gu Yuan like a girl pregnant with spring.
Gu Yuan's scalp really went numb from looking at him...
Minmin glanced at Gu Yuan with a look of astonishment on her face.
Only then did she realize that she might have underestimated Gu Yuan.
"Is that so? Then please tell me carefully." Minmin urged.
He put on a posture of listening to a story.
Xiao Ning glanced at Gu Yuan awkwardly.
It was a bit too much to express my admiration in front of Gu Yuan.
Xu Chai saw Xiao Ning's embarrassment at a glance and poured Xiao Ning a glass of water with a smile.
"Let's go eat first. The food has been prepared."
"Uncle Xu, I'm going back first." Xiao Ning quickly stood up and said.
"Are you still leaving?" Xu Chai grabbed him and said with a dark face, "Why, you are so busy now that you don't even have time to stay for a meal?"
"No, no!" Xiao Ning quickly waved his hand and glanced in Gu Yuan's direction.
Of course he wanted to stay for dinner. This was a good opportunity to get closer to Gu Yuan!
Not everyone is qualified to sit at the same dining table as Gu Shen!
Isn’t it allowed to take a photo and post it on Moments?
Why shouldn't others be so envious of themselves?
Xiao Ning was also grateful to Gu Yuan.
He knew very well what happened in the trial field before.
If it weren't for the help of Gu Yuan and others, he would never have a chance to get out.
Listening to Xiao Ning's repeated words of thanks, Gu Yuan waved his hand and said: "Actually, the person who really saved you was Yang Xingyu. Before Yang Xingyu, there was also the pharmacist named Guan Yong from the Jingwu Academy. To be honest, it was me. Didn’t help much.”
Xiao Ning's expression turned serious.
"Gu Shen, I know what's going on. At that time, all my friends ignored me. If it weren't for you..." Speaking of this, Xiao Ning felt sad.
After coming out of the trial place, Xiao Ning has become much more mature than before.
After experiencing life and death, Xiao Ning understood a lot of truths and knew what was important and what was insignificant in his life.
At the dinner table, Xu Chai is a businessman and very good at finding topics.
Unlike most middle-aged men, Xu Chai will never preach in the process of communicating with young people, but it can still make people gain some insights.
After eating and drinking, Xu Chai took Gu Yuan and Xiao Ning to visit the villa, mainly to display his collection over the years.
Antique calligraphy and paintings are Xu Chai's favorite, and precisely because of this, whenever there is a conflict between Xu Chai and Ru Min, Ru Min will threaten him with these antique calligraphy and paintings.
Xu Chai sighed and said to Gu Yuan: "To be honest, the door of this room was replaced with a metal one, and a three-layer lock structure with password, palm print and iris was installed to prevent Min Min..."
Gu Yuan and Xiao Ning both laughed.
Xu Chai looked melancholy.
"Hey, Minmin's personality is quite rebellious, which may be why I am too strict. Today, you are actually here, otherwise we would still be like enemies."
Gu Yuan smiled and said, "Children will always grow up."
"Yes...children will always grow up." When Xu Chai talks about his daughter, a smile will fill his face.
When preparing to see off the guests, Xu Chai ordered his servants to fill the trunk of the car with cigarettes and alcohol. Gu Yuan wanted to stop him, but Xu Chai held his arm down.
"These are not for you, they are for the elders in your family! Reciprocity is a courtesy!"
Gu Yuan couldn't say anything, but he definitely couldn't take these things home. Given his second uncle's identity, and Xu Chai was a well-known local entrepreneur, the impact would be too bad if word spread about it.
Instructing the driver to send Gu Yuan and Xia Youzhi home safely, Xu Chai stood at the door and watched.
"Uncle Xu."
"Huh?" Xu Chai turned to look at Xiao Ning.
"If we can maintain a good relationship with Gu Shen, the Xu family... can sit back and relax!" He said seriously.
