After rebirth, they all moved into my house.

Gu Jiuyi's lips trembled and she met Lu Yuan's eyes. Lu Yuan was smiling all the time, as if telling her that everything was okay.

"Um…"

Gu Jiuyi opened her mouth and held the spoon, then took it from Lu Yuan and slowly started eating.

The three girls looked back and forth between Lu Yuan and Gu Jiuyi in surprise.

Lu Yuan became serious at this time, "Hello, I am Jiuyi's tutor, who are you?"

"Tutor?" The girls paused, not understanding why this word appeared in Gu Jiuyi's mind. After a moment, they suddenly understood something, and their hearts sank. "So that's it. Meet the teacher. We are Jiuyi's friends and we were in the same class in junior high school."

Lu Yuan nodded. "You don't have to call me teacher. I'm also a student. Jiuyi and I go to Yunhai together, so I'm considered your classmate. It seems you're planning to perform?"

"That's right." The three girls looked at each other, and finally looked at Lu Yuan. "Brother, the tutoring you mentioned, is it tutoring for academic subjects?"

"Yes, what's wrong?"

The three women were dumbfounded. They opened their mouths and paused, and remained silent for a long time.

In the end, it was the girl who took the lead in the middle who spoke first.

Rang Luyuan was very surprised.

"Jiuyi, I'm sorry."

"We really didn't mean to isolate you."

"It's just that we were also deceived. We now see that scumbag clearly. He has left Bowang. No, he is no longer in this country."

Lu Yuan was shocked. What had happened to make a girl like Gu Jiuyi isolated? And what about that scumbag? Did he cheat on Gu Jiuyi or their relationship?

"...Lu Yuan, where are we going this afternoon?" Gu Jiuyi ignored them and asked Lu Yuan about the upcoming itinerary.

When the three girls saw that Gu Jiuyi ignored them, they understood what was going on. They looked at each other, bowed to Gu Jiuyi to apologize, and left.

Gu Jiuyi didn't say anything, and Lu Yuan didn't say anything either.

"The road is long." After a long time, Gu Jiuyi finally spoke.

"I'm here." Lu Yuan said that he has always been there.

"If I say..." Gu Jiuyi bit her lip, suppressing the resentment in her heart, "I used to be an art student, would you believe it?"

Lu Yuan’s answer was: “I believe it.”

"Huh?" Gu Jiuyi didn't expect Lu Yuan to answer so quickly.

"I've seen your understanding of music in music class." Lu Yuan recalled the scene of the music class. The way Gu Jiuyi and Xu Ruolin talked freely made Lu Yuan not doubt Gu Jiuyi's words at all.

Even if he had never taken music lessons, Lu Yuan would not doubt it, because he knew that Gu Jiuyi had no reason to lie to him.

"I see." Gu Jiuyi nodded slightly. "I used to be a student in the art class just like them. My piano grades were always ranked first, and I was able to be admitted to the Affiliated High School of Peking University."

"The High School Affiliated to Jingcheng University?"

"Hmm..." Gu Jiuyi raised the cup and took a sip of water, then continued, "They were originally my friends, but there was only one place for direct admission, and the rest had to pass the special talent exam to get in."

"But you had an accident, lost your admission quota, and did not take the special recruitment exam, right?" Lu Yuan said incisively.

"How do you know?" Gu Jiuyi was very surprised.

Lu Yuan sighed, "Do you remember the first time you came to my house? I played you a piano piece, a very warm piece, but you cried. At that time, I wondered if something happened in your past that gave you bad memories of the piano."

Gu Jiuyi was silent for a moment and nodded.

"It was an accident. I was pushed down the stairs and my left arm was broken. Even if I recover, I won't be able to compete for the art specialty student position!"

……

Is flexibility impaired due to the fracture?

Lu Yuan knew that a pianist's hands were the most important. The Golden Hands could not be allowed to suffer any serious injuries. Once seriously injured, they would have to withdraw from the piano stage.

"Who pushed you?" Lu Yuan asked.

Lu Yuan was very angry at this moment. Why did he push Gu Jiuyi down? Such a great talent fell just like that. Why did he do this?

Gu Jiuyi also suppressed her inner anger and said through gritted teeth, "It's the second-ranked one, the scumbag they just talked about."

Lu Yuan was stunned for a moment, then clenched his fists.

"Because of jealousy? Want to snatch your admission spot?"

Gu Jiuyi nodded, then shook her head. "Not only that, he's always ranked second, and he's also the son of Dad's business friend. Dad once even tried to get me to interact with him more because we share the same interests. However, I've never liked that guy, but he keeps pestering me."

"A business marriage?" Lu Yuan's face darkened. How many times had he witnessed such a tragedy?

"Well... that guy is a central air conditioner. I've seen him trying to hook up with me while secretly cuddling with other girls."

"That's really a sea king." Lu Yuan was indignant for Gu Jiuyi.

Gu Jiuyi nodded, scumbag!

"I told my dad about it, but he said maybe I had misunderstood it and asked me to take a closer look. I didn't want to waste time talking to him, so I didn't argue with him.

"Those three girls just now had always liked that jerk, but he kept sticking to me at the behest of his elders. Even when I acted like I had no feelings for him, he still kept sticking to me. This also caused the girls in the class to gradually have disagreements with me.

"One time, I happened to meet him on the stairs. He had just finished flirting with the three girls and then left. I didn't want to have too much contact with him, so I stuck to the railing and didn't want to get too close to him.

"But when he passed by me, he leaned towards me. I instinctively wanted to step away, but I missed a step and he caught me. At that time, I was touched. Maybe he is still a good person.

"Do you know what happened? He looked at me and smiled. Not only did he loosen his hand, he also pushed me. I fell down the stairs. I was in so much pain at that time that I almost fainted from crying. That person still squatted beside me hypocritically to take care of me. The three girls just turned around and just looked at him and me curled up on the ground.

"Later they sent me to the hospital, and after the X-ray results came out, the doctor told me that I might never be able to compete on the highest stage of piano again.

"At that time, he and the three girls looked very sad, but I knew that they were secretly glad that without me, there would be an extra spot for the special students, and the school also gave my admission quota to that boy!

"I told my dad he pushed me, but I have no proof. There were no cameras at the stairwell. Those three girls not only insisted he didn't push me, but the other girls who couldn't stand me because they couldn't compete with me also said I wanted to destroy him because I couldn't have him. But I didn't! I'm telling the truth!"

“Even though some boys and a few girls wanted to help me, the school couldn’t find any evidence. They couldn’t help me at all, so they gradually stopped helping and turned to the other side.

"Later, my father came forward and asked the police to investigate. At first, there were no leads. More and more people were trying to get me into trouble, but I was powerless and could only watch from there with my body cast on.

"A few days later, a video suddenly appeared on the school forum. The police used some means to confirm that the video was secretly filmed by a girl who had a crush on him. It happened to capture the moment when he pushed me down. That's when the misunderstanding was cleared up.

"After that, all the photos and videos of him cheating and checking into hotels were dug up. Not only students but also people outside the school were exposed. The school expelled him because of this. That's when everyone realized he was the Sea King and condemned him. But no one cared about me. They had no idea of ​​the injustice I had suffered!"

"The same goes for those three girls. They didn't contact me until I left here. I know they didn't dare to face me.

"My mom and dad were very angry and called their closest friends to take revenge on the Neptune family. Plus, my family has some connections and a lot of people are willing to help us. Now they seem to be growing wheat in Western Siberia or coffee beans in South America, I forgot."

"Because of my injury, I had to transfer to a regular class. But by then it was too late to study academic subjects in depth, so I didn't take the high school entrance exam, nor did I stay here. Instead, I went to Yunhai, and that's how I met you."

Gu Jiuyi has been narrating her past, and Lu Yuan has been listening attentively.

At this time, Lu Yuan finally realized why Gu Jiuyi treated him like that on the first day he arrived at Gu Jiuyi's house.

She asked herself if Uncle Gu recommended her for the blind date because Jiuyi had already been hurt.

No wonder Jiuyi treats herself like that.

Moreover, her suddenly improved grades gave her hope.

It turns out that there was a reason why Jiuyi was so rude to Uncle Gu.

Uncle Gu, you are courting death. Jiuyi is just angry with you. Fortunately, Jiuyi knows that the main responsibility lies with the greed of that scumbag, not your blind date, otherwise the battle between father and daughter might really begin.

But no matter what, the fact that Gu Jiuyi was injured cannot be erased.

"Jiuyi, don't worry. My sister told me to protect you. Besides, not many people know you in Yunhai. You can start a new life."

"I know...but..."

Gu Jiuyi was about to cry. Lu Yuan sat beside her and hugged her so that she could lean on his arms.

"Are we going to the aquarium later?" Lu Yuan asked.

"Aquarium?" Gu Jiuyi rubbed his eyes, a little curious.

"Well, I haven't been there yet. I want to go and see it."

This is the truth. I have never been to an aquarium. The main reason is that the aquarium in Yunhai is far from home, and I usually don’t go there specifically to play if I have nothing to do.

In fact, the main purpose was to ease Gu Jiuyi's current mood. She definitely couldn't be allowed to stay here any longer, as that would only make her mood worse.

Forget about going to the mall or something, I can't do that.

There are too many people passing the amusement park

There may be a lot of people in the aquarium or there may be very few people, but no matter how many people there are, you don’t have to queue up everywhere. At least you can keep walking. Besides, he has wanted to visit the aquarium for a long time to see the marine life and so on. It is very healing.

"I understand. Come with me."

After wiping her eyes with a handkerchief, Gu Jiuyi took Lu Yuan's arm and left the coffee shop.

Lu Yuan originally wanted to say that they were too close and it would be better to separate a little, but when he saw the tears in the corners of the girl's eyes, he thought forget it, as long as she was happy.

Gu Jiuyi asked the driver to take Lu Yuan to a hotel, which actually had an aquarium.

"There are so many people." Lu Yuan couldn't help but frowned. It seemed that he had made a mistake. However, it was still early, so he might as well go out and see if there were any other places to go, such as visiting Bowang University.

But Gu Jiuyi took Lu Yuan's hand, went straight to the staff, gestured, and then went in through the employee passage.

Lu Yuan stared at Gu Jiuyi.

Gu Jiuyi blinked and said, "This is my family's hotel."

Lu Yuan couldn't help but slap his forehead. Damn it, why didn't you tell him earlier? He was worried for nothing.

32. Encountering the homeroom teacher [33/43]

When he arrived at the aquarium, Lu Yuan couldn't help but marvel at the beauty of the ocean, the wonders of nature, and the wealth of Gu Jiuyi's family.

"Jiuyi, look, that fish is smiling." Lu Yuan pointed at the manta ray in the sky.

"It's not laughing." Gu Jiuyi was amused. What was the manta ray laughing?

Although there were so many people, it didn't seem crowded because the aquarium was huge and divided into several floors. It felt like being in the sea.

"It's a jellyfish."

"It's quite pretty, and it's purple."

“It’s a dolphin.”

"Isn't that its baby?"

"This is a giant shark."

"Do you think it will bite through the glass?"

Gu Jiuyi and Lu Yuan chatted casually about the scene in the water, as if they were swimming in the sea themselves.

"Wow, Lu Yuan, look over there, someone is taking wedding photos!" Gu Jiuyi pulled Lu Yuan's sleeve and motioned Lu Yuan to look over there.

Lu Yuan looked out and saw that the area there was cleared. There was a huge glass behind him. He didn't know what kind of fish was inside, and he couldn't confirm it because he was stopped.

The photographer stood in the distance. The bride in an extra-long wedding dress held up her skirt like a dancing swan. The groom in a black suit was a little fat man wearing glasses.

The surrounding lights are a romantic purple-red, while the background is the blue of the sea. It looks a bit strange, but Lu Yuan believes that the photographer can handle it and take a set of wedding photos that seem to be at the bottom of the sea.

"It's quite romantic." Lu Yuan sighed.

Will he be able to take a photo with that girl here many years later?

Gu Jiuyi glanced to the side and said nothing.

Take the elevator to the third floor. After you have finished exploring the first and second floors, go to the third floor.

However, they had been walking for quite a while, so Gu Jiuyi decided to find a place to rest.

Lu Yuan nodded in agreement.

There aren't many chairs here though, so you can only sit along the decorative walls.

Gu Jiuyi didn't care at all. She dusted herself off and sat down. After all, it was her family's aquarium.

Lu Yuan leaned against the wall and played with his phone for a while.

After a while, Gu Jiuyi pointed to the camera beside him and said, "Do you want to take a picture?"

Lu Yuan took a look and saw that it was for photo taking and promotion. The photos could be taken away, but others could also see the photos taken on the screen next to them.

Lu Yuan shook his head. "There's no need. It's the same if we use our phones to take pictures. It's not good for you to appear here with your identity, right?"

"Is there anything wrong with that? I'm promoting my own aquarium." Gu Jiuyi asked, tilting his head.

"Indeed, it can." Lu Yuan was a little amused, "But there's no need. Let's find a passerby to take a picture for us."
