Chapter 34: Top Scholar!

Gu Chi finally breathed a sigh of relief after watching the landlord sign his name and press his fingerprints.

"The contract is in duplicate. When can we go through the transfer procedures?" Gu Chi asked as he put away the red ink.

"Give me the money as soon as possible in the afternoon. I also want to buy a commercial house during this period. I originally wanted to take out a loan, but now it's good. I can pay the full amount." The landlord also looked relieved.

After all, he didn't want to pay so much interest.

Listening to the landlord talking about the property he wanted to buy, Gu Chi smiled and nodded: "Well, that's a good location."

Gu Chi looked at the red real estate registration certificate in his hand, and the stone in his heart finally fell to the ground.

He is also a family man and has his own house.

Not only that, Gu Chi also bought a well-located cemetery for his adoptive mother.

It was a rainy day when the grave was moved. Gu Chi was holding an umbrella and wearing a black suit.

"Mom, I'm here to see you." Gu Chi looked at the black and white photo on the tombstone with red eyes.

My adoptive mother is a traditional and gentle woman, and she always looks kind when she smiles.

People in the village always said that she looked miserable, but she didn't mind. She always smiled and said, "I have a good son like Gu Chi who is obedient and sensible. How can I be miserable?"

When the Lu family came to find him, he was happy, but he didn't want to leave his adoptive mother.

But on one side is the life of a wealthy 'prince', and on the other side is his gambling and alcoholic father. His adoptive mother naturally knows where he should live.

So she suppressed her heartache and let Gu Chi leave.

Later, Gu Chi found out that at that time, she already knew that she had a terminal illness.

Although she knew that the Lu family was not short of money, she still gave her only savings of 10,000 yuan to Gu Chi.

Such a person who gave everything for Gu Chi, in the end, he couldn't even meet him.

"Gu Chi, don't be too sad." Xu Xin behind him patted his shoulder comfortingly.

"Your life is getting better and better now, which is the greatest comfort to your aunt." Xu Qingwan soothed with red eyes and a strong nasal voice.

Before, she did complain about Gu Chi not being able to see his adoptive mother for the last time.

I also thought he was an ungrateful person, but looking at his increasingly thin figure, and the fact that for such a long time, the Lu family didn't even register Gu Chi.

She also knew in her heart that Gu Chi was not having a good time in the Lu family.

Gradually she let it go.

"Thank you two for helping me so much." Gu Chi looked at his two friends around him with gratitude.

"What are you thanking me for? We're a family from now on. Just tell us if you have any troubles." Xu Xin's personality is carefree, in stark contrast to Gu Chi's calmness.

Finally, it’s time to check the results.

All the members of the Lu family gathered together, even the third child, Lu Liu, who was studying away from home, stayed up late waiting.

When the final score was 655, the entire Lu family cheered.

Lu Meng had already prepared a fireworks show worth millions, and was just waiting for nightfall to start setting it off.

After such a big publicity, Lu’s stock is sure to soar.

Moreover, the new product developed by the company - Learning Ji, is about to be launched. With this promotion, it will definitely be a big seller.

"Mom, let's ask about Gu Chi's grades." Lu Meng's words instantly turned the originally pleasant atmosphere into a dull one. "Can you please not mention him at this time? It's really a letdown." Zhao Rui rolled her eyes at her. "He didn't do well in the monthly exams, so what good grades can he get in the college entrance exams?"

"How do you know he didn't do well in the exam?" Lu Ning looked at her puzzledly, "Are you secretly caring about him behind our backs?"

"Who has the time to care about him? It was Tianci's childhood friend who sent me his report card. He ranked over 200th in the monthly exam. I still care about him. I feel ashamed when I think about it." Zhao Rui spoke sharply and had no expectations for Gu Chi at all.

Lu Ning looked at the second child, Lu Meng, and shrugged helplessly. It seemed that she was indeed overthinking.

"It seems that this time, you have secured the title of top scorer in science." Zhao Ziming smiled with satisfaction and did not want to take part in their conversation.

The last time the matter went to the police station, in his heart, Gu Chi was no longer his son.

From now on, the Lu family will only have one son, Lu Tianci.

Teacher Lu Tianci also called and said, "Congratulations, Tianci, for getting the second place in the city."

Lu Tianci frowned and said in disbelief: "Teacher, how could it be the second place? Who is the first place?"

"Gu Chi from No. 6 Middle School has achieved very good results. The teacher is very pleased..." Lu Tianci did not hear a word of the compliments that followed.

Only the two words "Gu Chi" were spinning in his mind: "How could it be Gu Chi, how could it be..."

"It's okay, it's okay. I guess it's just a case of having the same name. No matter how exceptionally you perform, you can't possibly become the top scorer in the college entrance examination." Zhao Rui comforted him softly.

"Yes, it doesn't matter if you don't become the top scholar. You will always be dad's good son." Lu Ziming also echoed.

Although Gu Chi is his biological son, he doesn't want him to be the top scholar this time.

He can't be wrong!
"Now the reporters have gone to No. 6 Middle School for interviews. Why don't we go over and take a look to see if it's our Gu Chi." Lu Meng said as he walked out impatiently.

"Wait for me..." Lu Ning also trotted over and followed.

Several luxury cars were parked in front of the school gate, and a large number of reporters had already flocked to the school.

Everyone wanted to dig out some news stories about this top scorer in the college entrance examination.

"Congratulations, Gu Chi, for achieving such great results."

"Yes, and we heard that you are a dark horse in this college entrance examination. Do you have any study tips you can share with us?"

Reporters pointed their cameras at Gu Chi.

"Thank you all for your concern. In fact, practice makes perfect. The college entrance examination is just one of many options." Gu Chi replied politely.

"Excuse me, are you Gu Chi, the young master that the Lu family recognized?" The reporter with a good memory could tell that Gu Chi was the young master that the Lu family recognized in a high-profile manner back then.

The real young master, who had always kept a low profile, appeared in the public eye again and he actually got the top spot in the imperial examination.

"I'm sorry everyone, I'm not the young master of the Lu family. I have no relationship with the Lu family anymore. I'm just an orphan."

One stone stirs up a thousand ripples, and all the heat makes you look at each other in bewilderment.

"Gu Chi, you ungrateful bastard..." Following a loud roar, everyone looked behind them.

The Lu family's people came behind them without knowing when.

Lu Ziming and Zhao Rui were looking at Gu Chi with anger on their faces.

This is simply a news headline delivered to your door.
