Mr. Yang, the homeroom teacher, cherished this boy who was both academically gifted and handsome, and would often show him concern and care.
"I understand, Teacher Yang. Thank you for your concern."
After thanking them politely, Gu Qing left the teachers' office.
Shortly after Gu Qing left, Ms. Guo from the next class couldn't help but sigh to Mr. Yang:
"You both come from single-parent families, so how come your personalities are so different?"
Old Yang turned his head, a figure flashing through his mind, "Old Guo, are you talking about Su Xiyue from your class?"
"Who else could it be?" Teacher Guo sighed.
"Stop worrying about useless things!" Old Yang shook his head when Su Xiyue was mentioned. "She has a mother who is a leader. Even our principal has to bow and scrape before her. Just say less!"
……
"Qingqing, have you heard?"
As soon as Gu Qing returned to his seat, Zhou Jie started to strike up a conversation.
"what's up?"
Gu Qing looked at her math test paper, which had lost 2 points, and asked with a frown.
"Su Xiyue from Class 3, the school heartthrob, seems to have gotten into another fight!"
Zhou Jie's tone carried a hint of gossip.
Fights between girls are most likely caused by boys.
Gu Qing had absolutely no interest in these things; in fact, one could say she found them rather repulsive.
Students' primary responsibility is to study, especially since it's a fight between girls.
Although men and women are reversed in this world, Gu Qing still felt it was very indecent to think about pulling each other's hair and clothes.
However, he had heard Zhou Jie mention Su Xiyue quite a few times.
He seems to be good-looking; he's one of the school's most handsome guys.
I'm not sure about his grades, but they're definitely not as good as his.
She gets into fights frequently, which gives her a bit of a delinquent vibe, but that might be a plus in Zhou Jie's eyes.
To borrow a phrase from my past life, he was "bad boy handsome," with a touch of wickedness.
In short, they were all types that Gu Qing could not appreciate.
……
When school ended, Gu Qing received a message from Gu Yuan.
"Don't cook when we get back, let's go out to eat tonight."
Gu Qing looked at the message, thought for a moment, and replied, "Just the two of us?"
“There are others.” That was Gu Yuan’s reply.
"Male or female?" Gu Qing asked.
It wasn't until Gu Qing returned home that Gu Yuan's message came again: "Woman."
Upon seeing this message, Gu Qing lay on the sofa, recalling Gu Yuan's recent actions, and already had the answer in her heart.
The father, Gu Yuan, is 37 years old this year. He is not old and is also very good-looking.
Even with Gu Qing as a burden, remarrying wouldn't be difficult.
From Gu Qing's perspective, Gu Yuan has been divorced for several years and has plenty of time ahead of him, so it's reasonable for him to find a new partner.
Moreover, Gu Qing is about to go to university, and expenses in all aspects will increase exponentially.
Although Gu Qing herself was very confident in herself, she was able to win scholarships and earn money from part-time jobs.
But Gu Yuan absolutely did not want her "beautiful" son to suffer like this.
Not to mention that many good-looking boys nowadays go astray because of money.
Even if there's only a one in ten thousand chance, Gu Yuan would never take that risk.
Therefore, whether from Gu Yuan's perspective or Gu Qing's perspective, finding a good person to remarry is a perfectly reasonable thing to do.
Gu Qing, who has lived two lives, is quite able to understand and accept this.
Gu Qing's idea was very simple.
If you get along with your stepmother, then you should treat her with the utmost respect.
If we don't get along, I'm going to university soon anyway, and I'll go to a city far away. We won't see each other more than a few times a year, so it'll be easier for both of us.
For various reasons, Gu Qing was quite open-minded about Gu Yuan's remarriage.
……
Meanwhile, Gu Yuan, who had been waiting for a while without receiving a reply from Gu Qing, seemed somewhat worried.
"Old Su, what if Qingqing can't accept it?"
Gu Yuan looked at the woman beside him with a conflicted expression.
Old Su gently embraced Gu Yuan and said softly, "If you can't accept it right away, we'll take it slowly. Be patient, and everything will be fine."
With Lao Su's reassurance, Gu Yuan's worries lessened.
At that moment, Gu Qing's reply appeared before his eyes:
"I understand, Dad. Your happiness is my goal in this life, so don't worry."
Upon seeing this sentence, Gu Yuan's eyes instantly welled up with tears.
My son has been mature and sensible since he was a child, and I never cause him any trouble.
After his divorce, he took on all the household chores, managing their small home in an orderly manner, and even taking care of his father.
But it was precisely because of this that Gu Yuan felt even more guilty when he saw Gu Qing's resistance to marriage.
He hoped to show Gu Qing his happiness so that she would be less resistant to getting married.
It's really strange when you think about it.
While others worry about their children dating too early, he worries about his child not dating at all.
After smiling, Gu Yuan placed Gu Qing's information in front of Old Su and said to her with a hint of pride:
"How about it? Aren't you incredibly lucky to have met me, and even got a smart, beautiful, and sensible son as a bonus? You should be secretly thrilled!"
"Yes, yes, yes, it's more than just a stroke of good fortune; it's a luck that couldn't be bought even in ten lifetimes!"
The woman named Su Changqin once again pulled Gu Yuan into her arms, her face full of doting affection.
4. The girl is actually a foot fetishist!
7:00 pm
Su family villa.
Su Changqin changed into a women's suit, looking very clean and neat.
"Xiyue, have you changed your clothes yet?" Su Changqin called upstairs.
A moment later, Su Xiyue, dressed in a black long dress, came downstairs and appeared in front of Su Changqin.
Su Xiyue smiled mischievously and teased, "Are you in such a hurry to see Uncle Gu?"
Su Xiyue neither supported nor opposed her mother's new relationship.
But after meeting Gu Yuan a few times, she had to admit that, in terms of both appearance and personality, he was quite suitable for her mother.
“Not only your Uncle Gu, but also your Uncle Gu’s son.”
Su Changqin looked at Su Xiyue, ignoring the latter's astonished expression, and continued:
"Didn't you complain about not having a younger brother when you were little? Now you do."
younger brother!?
Uncle Gu has a son?
It has to be said that Su Xiyue was still shocked by the sudden news from her mother.
She had met Uncle Gu several times, but this was the first time she had learned that he actually had a son.
A complex mix of emotions welled up inside me.
It wasn't that she was worried about the other person competing with her mother for favor; based on her understanding of Su Changqin, there was no need to compete—she was destined to lose.
And she didn't care about that.
I just can't think of a way to get along with the other person right now.
"I hate little kids!"
