Chapter 163 Chapter 162: Do you want a girlfriend?
Just knocked on the anti-theft door of the opposite house.
The next moment, the door was gently pushed open, and Shen Guanshan, who had changed his shoes early, appeared in front of him.
Gu Xing looked up and down imperceptibly.
Shen Guanshan remained bare-faced as always.
Although it is not as gorgeous and delicate as other women's makeup.
But she is better than she is young, with fair and shiny skin, and even brighter eyes, red lips, and white teeth; her eyebrows are just the right thickness, with one point more thick and the other less light.
The facial features are dignified and clear, so vivid and fresh.
In Gu Xing's opinion, she is beautiful enough even without makeup.
She still wears white short-sleeved shirts and black sweatpants. The loose fabric covers most of her body, leaving only two slender white forearms exposed.
What was different from usual was that she tied her recently grown middle hair into a ponytail.
The fair neck is completely exposed, and the whole person looks capable and neat.
"Good afternoon!" Shen Guanshan's tone was cheerful, and his bright eyes showed joy.
Gu Xing's Adam's apple rolled, and he shifted his gaze and did not dare to look at her, for fear that his heart would be knocked open by the pink star's horn.
Shen Guanshan had been staring at him just now.
Gu Xing has a slim build, his figure is as tall and graceful as a green pine, and his expression is full of youthful spirit.
Sensing the opponent's small movements, Shen Guanshan looked straight through his neck and could clearly see his Adam's apple rolling.
Like a quail egg.
A strange descriptive word suddenly appeared in Shen Guanshan's mind.
Out of place.
She quickly diverted her attention.
"Let's go, let's go," Shen Guanshan turned around and locked the door. "The weather is perfect, it's perfect for a walk!"
When he went downstairs, Gu Xing thought for a while and told the boss of VG that he came to Zhenhai today to raise his salary.
He felt that there was no need to hide this matter. Ding Jun neither asked him to sign a confidentiality agreement nor told him not to tell anyone.
Of course, Gu Xing can't tell the whole world how much money he wants to make, but it's normal to know everything about people he's close to.
"One million?" Shen Guanshan was sincerely happy for him, "That's amazing!"
Gu Xing also didn't expect that he would be able to receive such a high salary in the first season of his career.
It still feels like a dream.
He just wants to earn some pocket money by playing professionally and compete with stronger opponents on the same stage.
Are you going to get your first million in life just by messing around?
Shen Guanshan asked enthusiastically, "Then what do you plan to do with the money you make?"
Gu Xing blurted out, "Buy a house!"
He was really tired of living in that small cubicle. He couldn't even straighten his legs when sleeping, and the only bookshelf was still shared with Gu Pan.
It was difficult to turn around in the small bathroom, there was no separation between dry and wet areas, and water splashed everywhere when taking a shower.
What's even worse is that I went to the toilet in the morning when I was studying.
When four people use one toilet, you know how inconvenient it is.
Gu Xing had already planned to buy a house first when he made money!
Shen Guanshan walked down the stairs and looked down at his toes.
She naturally hopes that the Gu family can improve their living conditions.
In her opinion, Gu Xing Gu Pan and her uncles and aunts are all very good people. In recent years, her parents have not been around all year round, and she has received a lot of help from the Gu family.
But if the Gu family buys a new house and moves out, won't she and Gu Xing be able to continue to be neighbors?
Thinking of this, Shen Guanshan instantly panicked.
Passing by his own store outside the community, Gu Xing pushed the door open and went in, waking up a string of wind chimes that made a crisp tinkling sound.
"Welcome to the light..." Gu Pan, who was behind the counter, was immersed in reading a book. He raised his head when he heard the sound of wind chimes.
Before she finished speaking, she saw her brother and swallowed the last word.
I walked to the window and looked around, but I didn’t see my mother. “Where is mom?”
Gu Pan had seen the boss of VG driving out in a Mercedes before. He thought his mother would come to take over after the matter was discussed, but he didn't expect to see anyone after waiting for a long time.
"I'll be down in a moment..." Gu Xing went to the shelf and picked up two bottles of yogurt.
When he left, his parents were still immersed in the shock of their son earning 1 million in three months, and they probably had to wait for a while.
When he came to the counter, Gu Xing found that his sister was reading a book called "Introduction to Computing". It must have been a freshman course.
After some thought, he decided to give Gu Pan appropriate care before school started, "Can you understand it through self-study?"
Shen Guanshan on the side also showed concern.
"It's a little difficult," Gu Pan looked troubled, "I regret that I didn't take the Informatics Olympiad seriously at that time. It's too late to start now."
Zhejiang is the top information science and technology province in China and is far ahead in basic computer education.
The town is also a strong school in informatics competitions, producing members of the national training team every year.
But Gu Pan felt that not having that talent would distract him, so he didn't study hard, and his main focus was still on the college entrance examination.
I regret it now, very much.
If you get into Peking University with naked scores, it may seem like you have high scores in the college entrance examination, but in fact, not only do you have no advantage, but you will often suffer disadvantages!
When I visited the freshman group of Information Science and Technology, I found that many of the students there had competition experience.
Although the top batch of informatics competition students basically went to the Yao class next door, Peking University is still Peking University, and the informatics level of the admitted competition students is infinitely higher than that of Gu Pan!
Compared with the comprehensive test-taking ability of the college entrance examination, Gu Pan does not feel that he is inferior.
But when I entered university, there was no language and culture test in the liberal arts majors. Most of them were professional courses.
Those who have studied for the competition in advance will have a big advantage in terms of starting time and subject understanding!
Gu Pan's starting point at university was lower than that of many students at the same level, which made her uncomfortable and inevitably frustrated.
When Gu Xing saw her like this, he originally wanted to tease her by saying that if you miss the Olympiad by focusing on the topic, you might not get a good result in the competition, and your college entrance examination score may not be enough to go to Peking University.
The words came to my lips, but I still didn't have the heart to say them.
Shen Guanshan took the initiative and said, "I heard that you have some points in your freshman course. I can help make up for them."
She is not very good at comforting people and always feels that solving problems is the best way to comfort people.
"Thank you..." Gu Pan adjusted his mood quickly and picked up the code scanner quickly.
As soon as I finished sweeping away the two bottles of yogurt, I saw my brother grabbing another can of Pepsi-Cola from the freezer with a look of disgust on his face.
"Here, I'll treat you to a drink from this bottle." Gu Xing pushed the Coke to his sister and scanned the QR code on his phone to pay.
Although it is a self-owned store, you can buy it for free, but it will be a little troublesome to clear the goods and do the accounting.
It's not as convenient as paying the bill.
"What for?" Gu Pan was amused by him, "If you want to drink, I can buy it myself."
"I'm just asking you if you want it?" Gu Xing was impatient.
Gu Pan smiled and did not refuse. She glanced at Gu Xing handing a bottle of yogurt to Shen Guanshan and asked on a whim, "If I want to drink yogurt, can you treat me too?"
Shen Guanshan lowered his head and pretended to be an ostrich.
Gu Xing knew his sister Linglong's thoughts and was too lazy to pay attention to her. He waved his hand and led Shen Guanshan out.
"Gu Xing, you have changed!" Gu Pan was ready to cause trouble, "Back then you even offered me yogurt!"
In his memory, Gu Xing only treated his sister to a bottle.
At that time, he bought yogurt for Shen Guanshan for the first time, and he was worried that the girl would reveal the matter to his sister, so he bought an extra bottle.
Now he and Shen Guanshan have reached a tacit understanding.
In this case, why do you still need to buy yogurt for Gu Pan?
Gu Pan opened the ice Coke ring, leaned against the window sill and watched his brother and his friends walking side by side through the camphor trees until they completely disappeared from his sight, then he sat down and continued reading and previewing.
After walking through the shadow of the camphor trees, the two of them sipped yogurt and arrived at the People's Park not far away.
There is the District Youth Palace nearby, and the summer vacation is not over yet. There are a large number of students taking extra classes, and they are spread over a wide range of age groups.
A group of laughing and playing children carrying schoolbags rushed over from behind. The sidewalk was very narrow, and Gu Xing, who was walking on the outside, was forced to give in and dodge.
Shen Guanshan's body reacted slowly, and his forearm inevitably collided with Gu Xing's.
The first reaction was that the other person's body was as warm as a small stove, and then he saw the veins and muscle texture slightly emerging on the fair forearm.
Her cheeks were slightly tipsy.
Gu Xing waited for all the children to rush to the front, and then chatted with Shen Guanshan, "Have you packed your luggage?"
"...not yet."
Shen Guanshan thought to himself that he had spent last night chatting with his fellow celebrities. He was terrified and looking forward to what might happen today. How could he have the energy to pack his luggage?
However, she found that after she gave her short answer, there seemed to be the possibility of killing the topic, so she quickly added, "But I don't have much to bring. Textbooks can be delivered by express delivery. Just bring the necessary clothes and computer tablets."
"My mother is worried and plans to take Gu Pan to report," Gu Xing warned kindly, "If you have any difficulties, just tell them when the time comes."
After Shen Guanshan responded, there was still a wordless silence between the two.
I just followed the stone road to the park lake and walked along the shore.
Gu Xing, who has always been free from stage fright, rarely felt restless.
He didn't know whether the plan he prepared would work, and he planned to brew it for a while longer.
Shen Guanshan thought so too.
Perhaps due to the heat and panic, a thin layer of sweat appeared on his smooth forehead.
Some children picked up stones and floated them in the water. The stones quickly bounced on the water towards the center of the lake.
Gu Xing stopped.
The ripples on the lake surface are like ripples in my heart.
He recalled every moment of his time with Shen Guanshan.
I find that I prefer the light and confidence in the other person's eyes when they are concentrating on doing something. They are full of energy, which is completely opposite to their usual dullness and introversion.
I also fell in love with Shen Guanshan's brave, clumsy and green shot after shot.
Gu Xing looked at the ripples on the lake that gradually dissipated.
Shen Guanshan stopped and looked at him.
The boy's figure is still upright, like a green pine rooted by the lake, blending in with the surrounding trees.
Gu Xing gave herself a piece of Domori many years ago, and Shen Guanshan knew that it was just a small gesture of kindness to appease her grief that surged when she faced the death of her loved one.
But the seemingly insignificant kindness took root in her lonely and barren heart. After countless days and nights of watering, it grew into a green pine.
For most of her life, she was a social unknown at school, mentioned only in discussions related to mathematics.
What others say about her is nothing more than her good brain and social fear...
On other occasions, Shen Guanshan was just a little transparent, huddled in the corner watching Gu Xing and chatting and laughing with his classmates and teachers.
The time she spent in the training team was the first time she was unable to see Gu Xing for a long time.
When he got the letter of recommendation from Peking University, Shen Guanshan knew that if he continued to maintain the relationship between neighbors and friends, he would see Gu Xing less and less often.
She is confident in her memory.
Shen Guanshan will never forget that piece of chocolate.
But she was afraid that Gu Xing had already forgotten the warm kindness he had inadvertently given her.
Shen Guanshan asked someone to find a purchasing agent and bought a lot of Domori, which he gave to Gu Xing on the day he returned to Zhenhai from training.
The other party didn't respond when she received the chocolate, which made her extremely disappointed.
Shen Guanshan once thought about letting it go.
However, she couldn't let go.
Fortunately, the situation took a turn for the worse, and Gu Xing figured out the ins and outs of Domori.
Shen Guanshan still remembered his state of mind when Gu Xing delivered the yogurt that day.
At first there was panic mixed with secret joy, but then the torment and bitterness in my heart completely dissipated.
She likes Gu Xing.
Shen Guanshan is sure.
She didn't want to wait any longer.
"That..."
They both spoke at the same time.
Gu Xing turned his head and looked at Shenguan Mountain.
The other party's eyes were so clear that one couldn't tell whether they were reflections in the lake or not.
But Gu Xing was sure that he existed in her eyes.
The last warm wind carrying the scorching breath of late summer blew by. Shen Guanshan did not often tie his hair in a ponytail, and a few strands of hair were loose and stuck to his cheeks.
She moved her fingers and tucked her black hair behind her ears.
The warm wind blew away the thin sweat that had formed on the forehead, but it followed the breath and reached the bottom of my heart. It warmed my whole body and spread from my blood to my limbs.
Shen Guanshan was given great courage by the warm wind and spoke first.
"Do you... want a girlfriend?"
She enunciated clearly.
Gu Xing didn't expect that he didn't make the first move, but was caught off guard. Before he could react, he heard another sentence from Shen Guanshan.
"I think I'm quite suitable."
Shen Guanshan's heart was beating violently, as if he was also eagerly waiting for an answer.
Gu Xing was knocked dizzy by the pink star.
He took a deep breath, suppressed his inner excitement, and responded quickly, fearing that the other party would regret it.
"Yes... I feel like you just need a boyfriend."
When Shen Guanshan heard this, he couldn't help but smile brightly.
It is brighter and dazzling than the summer sunshine in Zhenhai.
……
Gu Xing paid the money, took two skewers of iron plate squid from the boss, and walked quickly back to Shen Guanshan.
She took a bunch and faced the cut squid board but couldn't eat it.
After thinking about it for a long time, I finally took a clumsy bite, and the corners of my mouth were stained with red chili powder.
Gu Xing couldn't help but chuckle and took out a tissue to wipe it off for her.
"I just said that we should go to Zhuangyuan Building, we have enough time..."
He originally wanted to find a better restaurant in downtown NB to celebrate the rapid development of their relationship.
As a result, Shen Guanshan insisted on insisting on eating squid, and then went to the Mingmen Casserole next to the People's Park for dinner.
"Isn't the casserole pretty good?" Shen Guanshan reasoned, "The last time we went to the park, we went to the same store, but it has a different meaning."
Then she also learned to change the topic, "The squid is indeed delicious. You were quite discerning when you were a child."
"That's right," Gu Xing was very proud. "My test scores were good at that time, so my dad brought me here. At that time, I felt that the squid was the god among affordable foods!"
Shen Guanshan has a good appetite today, and he can finish a casserole after finishing the snacks.
When darkness completely enveloped the earth, the two filled their stomachs and set off home.
"Look at the Drum Tower!" Shen Guanshan's face turned red and he stretched out his fingers in excitement.
Gu Xing looked up.
At night, the Zhenhai Tower emits colorful lights and looks magnificent in the darkness.
There were many tourists around taking photos to record this moment.
"Shall we take a photo too?" Gu Xing remembered that his first solo photo with Shen Guanshan was also at Zhenhai downstairs, and he was eager to take it now.
Seeing his girlfriend nodding her head repeatedly, he did not ask tourists to help take pictures this time, but stretched out his arms to take a selfie.
"Get closer, otherwise the camera won't be able to capture the two of us... get closer." Gu Xing directed Shen Guanshan.
In the end, their heads almost touched each other.
Even Gu Xing could smell the mint aroma of the shower gel.
When pressing the shutter button, Shen Guanshan smiled like a flower and stretched out his hand to make a bunny ear on top of his boyfriend's head.
Neither of them likes to take pictures, but now they still have more to say.
I stayed near Zhenhai Tower for half an hour before rushing back to Guxi Community.
The lights of the small store were dim, and Gu's father was nibbling ribs in front of the counter. This was a snack that his wife bought at the market on the spur of the moment. It was stewed so soft and delicious.
As soon as he spit out a piece of ribs, he saw a couple walking by under the light, holding hands in an intimate posture.
He was very sure that one of them was his son!
"Isn't it?" Father Gu panicked and quickly got up and chased out to see.
It wasn't until he saw the figure beside Gu Xing that he breathed a sigh of relief.
"Okay, okay..."
He had never heard that Gu Xing had any romantic relationships while he was working professionally in the Shanghai stock market.
If he suddenly brought an outsider home, Father Gu wouldn't be able to accept it for a while.
As for Xiao Shen...
That girl is pretty nice.
Gu Xing and Shen Guanshan held hands and didn't want to let go until they were downstairs.
no way.
The corridors in Guxi Community are very narrow and definitely not big enough for two adults to climb side by side.
"How about I explore the way in front, turn on the flashlight with my left hand, and we hold our right hands?" Shen Guanshan thought of a way.
The beginning is always wonderful every minute...
She knew that she would go north to study in two days, and she didn't know how long it would take to meet again.
Shen Guanshan wanted to seize every moment to enjoy a moment of tenderness with Gu Xing.
She knew her behavior was childish.
But a few years ago, Shen Guanshan dreamed of one day climbing upstairs hand in hand with Gu Xing.
Her eyes sparkled at night.
Gu Xing wanted to say that it was not safe to do this in the corridor at night, but in the end he was defeated by his girlfriend's eager eyes.
He suggested that he should walk in front, so that if Shen Guanshan accidentally fell, he would only fall on his back.
Shen Guanshan held her boyfriend's hand and climbed up the stairs step by step.
In the silent and dark corridor, only the flashlight gave off a little light.
Just like countless lonely nights, Shen Guanshan could always recall the warmth and kindness Gu Xing gave him many years ago.
……
September 2, Ningbo Lishe International Airport.
"Take your children and stay in a better place. Hotels in the capital are expensive, so don't be reluctant to leave them." The father told his wife.
"Oh, I know, I know..."
Gu's mother waved her hand, "I can understand the priorities of things. This is the only time in my life. I must spend money to buy peace of mind!"
She tries her best to be frugal on household expenses, but when she goes out, she doesn't save what she should spend.
Gu Pan followed behind, dragging his suitcase.
"Panpan..." Gu Xing called her with a disgusting tone.
"Hey~" Gu Pan protracted his tone with a look of disgust, "Can you speak properly?"
Gu Xing then said seriously, "Please take care of Guan Shan outside. She is not good at interpersonal communication. She is not familiar with the people in the hospital..."
"I understand!" Gu Pan took Shen Guanshan's arm, "If you don't tell me, how can I leave her alone?"
"I'll give you a gift during the Chinese New Year." Gu Xing planned to bribe his sister.
"Don't say goodbye to me, Qiuqiu. Can you hold back on giving me a gift?" Gu Pan thought about the chair that cost more than ten thousand yuan, and his heart was bleeding. Every number was mocking him for being a big wronged, "My little one." Ordinary people, the money you have worked so hard to earn is not enough to give you a gift in return!”
"Also, when you return to the base today, you can see the gift I gave you."
"I'm quite looking forward to it," Gu Xing patted Gu Pan's head, "Don't feel too far behind when you get there. Sometimes you have to accept your own mediocrity in certain aspects."
He understood this deeply.
When I was doing math competition, I was hung up in the sky by Shen Guanshan and beaten every day
Gu Xing, a terrifying giant who was stronger than Shen Guanshan, had also seen him during the national finals in Yingtan.
He knew that he had no talent in competition, so he was not convinced at first, but later he got used to it and it became okay and he didn't feel so uncomfortable.
I am afraid that Gu Pan will be mentally unbalanced.
After all, my sister has never seen such cheating level experts in information science competitions. In addition, she is also one of the top problem solvers in the province. She is used to being prestigious in the town, so it is inevitable that she has too high standards for herself.
Gu Pan nodded seriously this time, "I remember."
Seeing that he was about to board the plane, Shen Guanshan broke away from her arm and stepped forward to give Gu Xing a big hug.
"Ouch..." Gu Pan looked away, not wanting to look.
The Gu family's parents also witnessed this scene and turned sideways to chat with their daughter to avoid embarrassment between the two of them.
They found out the night their son and the girl across the street confirmed their relationship.
However, they have not yet fully accepted the identity change of the two from best friends to lovers.
Shen Guanshan rested his head on his boyfriend's collarbone and sniffed the air greedily. The clean and refreshing smell of laundry detergent on his body filled his nose.
Gu Xing's collarbone was a little itchy from the girl's chin.
He gently hugged Shen Guanshan's back.
Through the thin short sleeves, you can feel the beautiful butterfly bone outline of the other party.
And...
This was the first time that the inexperienced Gu Xing encountered this situation, and his palms were forced to move downwards.
When he hugged Shen Guanshan's waist, he realized for the first time how thin the waist of his girlfriend, who always wore loose sportswear, was.
This time it was Shen Guanshan's turn to scream first.
She took a step back and said, "Come on for the World Championships, I will watch you on the computer..."
"Study hard, and don't force yourself to do something you don't want to do." Gu Xing reminded.
Shen Guanshan's character, if she goes to college to act like a social butterfly, it will probably drive her crazy and make her feel miserable instead.
Seeing that his girlfriend agreed, he handed over the suitcase.
Shen Guanshan couldn't bear to leave him. Before leaving, he looked at Gu Xing eagerly and waved goodbye to his boyfriend.
The mother led the two young girls into the ticket gate. Gu Xing and the father waited for the plane to take off safely before heading to the train station.
Although the club did not confiscate his leave, he still had to go to Fudan to go through the formalities of suspending his studies.
During this period, Gu Xing frequently asked the counselors in the freshmen group about issues and precautions regarding suspension of study, and had already prepared everything.
Walking into Fudan University's Handan campus, Gu Xing was filled with emotions.
Before I came in, I participated in the winter camp and got a first-line contract.
At that time, he would never have imagined that the next time he came here would be to take a leave of absence from school!
Freshmen of the same age as Gu Xing can be seen everywhere on campus. They drag their suitcases and step into the university gate accompanied by their parents, preparing to welcome their new lives.
But sooner or later he will come back.
This missing life experience must be made up sooner or later.
Gu Xing glanced twice and then quickened his pace, heading towards the Academic Affairs Office.
Fudan has many campuses, and the main campus is on Handan Road in Wujiaochang, YP District.
The most famous building among them is undoubtedly the Guanghua Building, which is known as the tallest among domestic universities.
Gu Xing also learned about another reason why Guanghua Building is famous from a high school alumnus who was a few years older.
The jumping rate is particularly high.
However, when he took a leave of absence this time, he was going to the Academic Affairs Office of the Academic Affairs Office, which was located in the complex building. He was destined to not have time to admire the style of Guanghua Building up close.
The teacher in charge of academic management is not surprised by suspended students like Gu Xing.
Going abroad, serving in the military, suffering from illness, too much stress and anxiety...
There are all kinds of reasons.
But the reason filled in by the student seemed too outrageous. She scanned it carefully twice before asking Gu Xing to go to the department head for a signature.
Gu Xing ran back and forth twice, and finally completed all the procedures and received a stamped notice of permission to suspend school.
Everything is done.
In the next year, he can devote himself to the professional arena without any distractions!
Satisfied, he hurried back to Songjiang Haowangshan. As soon as Gu Xing arrived at the gate of the community, he received a delivery call.
A truck parked aggressively on the side of Haowangshan Community. Two staff members got out and opened the box and took out the items inside.
"Chair?!" Gu Xing didn't expect Gu Pan to give him this thing.
"It has been assembled, and the instructions are included in the box. We will help you put it in, so you can sit on it and try it out..." The staff's service attitude is very good.
Gu Xing was confused, but he still put people into the VG base.
Sitting on it, it does feel much more comfortable than a gaming chair.
After confirming that the chair was fine and sending the staff away, Gu Xing turned on his phone to search for pictures and checked the price.
What Herman Miller, ten thousand dollars for a chair? !
Gu Xing had never ridden on such a high-end thing, so he didn't dare to exert force at first, and could only roll the wheels gently to get used to it.
The base door was suddenly pushed open, and the visitor and Gu Xing looked at each other in confusion.
The daily routine has come to an end. The plot of these two days has been difficult to write, so the number of words is a little smaller.
Get ready to enter the World Championship soon, the plot will be much smoother.
It just so happens that the big plot has just ended, so let’s report the results.
The average number of chapter subscriptions is 15,000, and 11,000 new chapters are read within 24 hours.
It is much higher than the peak of the previous book, but the goal has been achieved.
Follow up and keep up the good work.
6800 words today, totaling 6.06W/27W.
(End of chapter)
