Chapter 37 What a Friend Should Say
Night has not yet come, the evening fire is still burning in the sky, and the sunset is gorgeous and picturesque.
Lin Wanyi lay on the window sill, supported his chin with his left hand, raised his head slightly and looked at the beautiful scenery, and did not speak for a long time.
"Sorry."
Gu Zhuo's voice rang out.
He said: "This does violate the promise I made to you, so I can understand your anger."
What he was referring to was naturally his request to Chen Chi to try his best to hide the news about the dean's accident.
Lin Wanyi did not look back, her voice was as light as water: "You think too much, I won't be angry about it, because I still owe you a life."
Gu Zhuo thought to himself that he would not be angry.
However, in his heart, countless voices repeated the same sentence at the same time.
——She is just angry!
"There's just one thing I can't figure out."
Lin Wanyi said indifferently: "You just did it. I can't go out of my way to check it. If you don't tell me, I probably don't know. Why do you just come over and tell me again?"
"Respect."
Gu Zhuo looked at her back and said seriously: "I know very well that what I do will make you unhappy. Keeping it secret can alleviate a lot of trouble, but since you and I are friends, we should treat each other in matters concerning each other. Be as candid as possible.”
Lin Wanyi said: "Even if you knew I would definitely be unhappy?"
I don't know why, but her voice is still cold and her aura is not gentle at all, but it gives people a different feeling.
Before Gu Zhuo could explain, he heard the next sentence.
"Yes, I am indeed unhappy. Do you know what I am most unhappy about?"
Lin Wanyi said coldly: "It's not because of what you are doing now, because I understand why you did this. Anyone who recalls the junior brothers and junior sisters who supported you on the day you left the academy will know that you did this." It's for them, not the old immortals in the academy, so even if you do this to give Cheung Chau Academy a chance to survive, I'm not angry. What I'm really angry about is that no one knows about your good deed!"< br>
Before Gu Zhuo could open his mouth to refute, the girl in the white skirt had already turned around, her skirts turning in an awe-inspiring manner, with an imposing aura.
She looked at Gu Zhuo condescendingly and asked expressionlessly: "Also, when we first met, I told you that we were like-minded, but you corrected me and said that you and I would work together in collusion, because the harm will last for thousands of years. , but you don’t look like you are colluding with me now?”
Gu Zhuo had no time to speak.
The more Lin Wanyi thought about it, the angrier and angrier he became: "I don't think it's impossible to be a good person, but can you think about it before you become a good person? Think about whether good people will be rewarded? Well, even if there is no reward, it doesn't matter. , anyway, you do good deeds without asking for anything in return, but now it’s just that you don’t Is there any reward? It's because others now regard you as an enemy and don't know that you are doing good things for them. Even if they know that you are doing the good things, they will think that you have ulterior motives in doing this! Yourself? ”
She said these words very quickly, like big beads and small beads falling on a jade plate, like heavy rain hitting pear blossoms, because she was really angry.
She had always thought that Gu Zhuo was a smart person and had never thought that he would do such a thing. In her opinion, after learning the news about the accident of the dean of Changzhou Academy, it was kind enough not to spread the news. What's more, it was kind enough not to spread the news. Not to mention entrusting Chen Chi to help the academy conceal it.
This was so baffling that Lin Wanyi even wanted to call Gu Zhuo an idiot.
But this is not to calm down, but to prevent his only friend from doing such meaningless good things again.
Until then, Gu Zhuo finally had time to speak.
He looked at Lin Wanyi, who had rarely lost his composure, and at the girl who was patting her chest gently, but could not calm down her pride and grandeur, and said: "Actually, I have considered it."
"I've thought about it all, but you just won't tell me, right?"
"...How could I have had the chance to speak just now?"
Gu Zhuo looked at her and sighed helplessly and asked.
"Haha."
Lin Wanyi suddenly felt annoyed, then smiled coldly and said, "Then tell me now."
Gu Zhuo found her reaction more and more strange and explained: "Tomorrow at the latest or tonight at the earliest, Changzhou Academy will definitely send someone to talk to me about the Tong Sheng Dan. By then, the news from the dean can be used as my bargaining chip." Lin Wan Yi understood and frowned slightly. After a moment of silence, he asked, "Do you want to use this to show off your skills and prove to the academy your ability to influence the overall situation?"
Gu Zhuo said: "That's pretty much the truth."
Lin Wanyi said seriously: "But I still think you just want to be a good person, these are just secondary."
Gu Zhuo did not deny it.
Lin Wanyi was still a little angry and annoyed, but she felt that she shouldn't be like this and should calm down, because this explanation made sense and was not a temporary deception.
As a result, her mood became more and more complicated, and her emotions became inexplicably wrong. She turned around and prepared to leave.
Even though this is actually her study.
At this moment, a servant suddenly rushed over and reported something in a low voice.
——Someone from Cheung Chau Academy is here.
……
……
Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!
There were two people coming.
The professor surnamed Liu who had a good relationship with Gu Zhuo and the vice president of Changzhou Academy.
The meeting place was not a study, but a side hall.
"In this meeting, I am mainly here to talk to you about the academy."
The vice president looked at Gu Zhuo and said, "Of course, if it makes you a little happier, you can understand that I am here to seek peace."
Professor Liu listened to this and thought, "Isn't this too tough?"
How does this look like it's here to seek peace?
Although he knew that negotiations must be tough, otherwise he would be asking for mercy, he still felt uneasy in his heart.
Lin Wanyi said nothing and looked at Gu Zhuo quietly.
Gu Zhuo said: "Please speak."
"You have studied in the academy for three years, and you are somewhat familiar with the academy's heritage. Even after His Majesty moved the capital, the academy has not seen students like you for a long time, but before that, the academy had students as outstanding as you. .”
"Some of these students are now in the center of power of the imperial court, holding their own place, or they have become elders of a certain large sect, with a transcendent realm."
The vice president said expressionlessly: "It is undeniable that the senior officials of the academy, including me, do not want to use these relationships. After all, something like affection can only be lost if a trace is used, and it cannot be made up for."
< br>
And indeed it is.
Cheung Chau Academy has such a long heritage, even if the current decline is difficult to suppress, it can still solve most problems with its profound foundation at critical times.
Gu Zhuo looked calm and asked: "So?"
"Your performance in these days has proven that you are indeed very good, so now we can let go of the previous things."
The vice-dean said slowly: "Publicly reconcile with the academy and state that everything is a misunderstanding. Get at least the top three places in the summer festival, and try your best to help your classmates get better results. At least one of them will be in the top." Thirty, two people entered the top fifty.”
"As long as you do all these..."
The old man stared into Gu Zhuo's eyes and finally said: "The Academy can give you the Tongsheng Pill after the Summer Festival."
There was laughter in the side hall.
It was Lin Wanyi who was smiling.
The laughter was harsh.
