On the third day after school restarted, Zhao PengYu went back to school and told Gu Ye what his uncle had done. \u201cMy uncle said thank you for the clue; he owes you one.\u201d<\/span><\/p>

Gu Ye said with a smile, \u201cFinding out the truth and also enacting justice for your wife are his merits, not mine. I didn\u2019t help with anything. On the other hand, he believed in my one-sided statement and saved an innocent child. It\u2019s me who should thank him.\u201d<\/span><\/p>

As soon as he heard the word \u201cwife\u201d, Zhao PengYu immediately got a headache. \u201cI don\u2019t want to marry a wife in the future, so spare me, will ya?!\u201d<\/span><\/p>

Gu Ye earnestly encouraged him. \u201cThen find a good family to marry into or you\u2019ll end up spending your old age all alone.\u201d<\/span><\/p>

Zhao PengYu felt an urge to strike Gu Ye down and give him a good beating. \u201cThen I\u2019ll marry you, is that okay?\u201d<\/span><\/p>

Gu Ye stood up and made an \u201cX\u201d with both hands while wearing a disgusted expression. \u201cUgly. No, thank you.\u201d<\/span><\/p>

In response, Zhao PengYu was amused and ran after him before asking, \u201cGu Ye, you know Feng Shui, right? Can you take a look at my house?\u201d<\/span><\/p>

Gu Ye raised his eyebrows. \u201cYour parents asked?\u201d<\/span><\/p>

\u201cYeah.\u201d<\/span><\/p>

\u201cI want money this time.\u201d<\/span><\/p>

\u201cOf course!\u201d<\/span><\/p>

\u201cOkay, this bro provides house-call<\/span> service, fortune-telling, Feng Shui, and observing your five elements and divining them… I take payments in the form of hair braid [t\/n]<\/span>. I also provide professional treatment for infertility, screen protection for your phone, et cetera.\u201d Listening to Gu Ye\u2019s obvious nonsense, Zhao PengYu almost collapsed from embarrassment and covered his face before saying, \u201cBe serious!\u201d<\/span><\/p>

Gu Ye looked at Zhao PengYu as if he was an ingrate traitor. \u201cHow could you say your savior is not serious?\u201d<\/span><\/p>

\u00a0Zhao PengYu instantly collapsed. \u201cDad, please shut your mouth. Thank you very much!\u201d<\/span><\/p>

\u201cOkay, big boy!\u201d<\/span><\/p>

Zhao PengYu gritted his teeth while constantly reminding himself that he would be damned if he beat up his savior!<\/span><\/p>

Getting another business deal, Gu Ye returned to his classroom in a pleasant mood. As soon as he sat down, several students gathered around him and said, \u201cGu Ye, how do you solve this question? Can you teach me? Please, pretty please!\u201d<\/span><\/p>

Ever since Gu Ye got first place on the previous exam, the teachers and his classmates had been paying attention to him. Gradually, everyone believed that he really was good at studying, and him not being arrogant ponce was a plus. He never refused to answer any questions regarding studies. Most importantly, he was good looking, so girls were even more willing to talk to him. Slowly, Gu Ye\u2019s reputation improved and some boys even grew jealous of him. But they couldn\u2019t even get jealous when they saw him smiling. Lin ZiHao, who had always been popular and a good student before, had gotten worse after being \u201ccursed\u201d by Gu Ye. His personality became eccentric, and his popularity also declined.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

\u00a0In the words of the girls, \u201cWho\u2019s not a Little Princess? Who do you want to show your face to? This sister is not interested [t\/n]!<\/span>\u201d<\/span><\/p>

The good thing was that Lin ZiHao would run away whenever he encountered Gu Ye. He didn\u2019t have the courage to make trouble with Gu Ye, and Gu Ye also didn\u2019t want to be bothered to deal with him.<\/span><\/p>

Gu Ye, like any other third-year high-schooler, was facing review materials every day. As the college entrance examination got closer, Gu Ye looked around and saw all the students running around to mealtime while doing revisions with small notes in their hands. Gu Ye also felt the pressure, so he picked up a small notebook and went to the cafeteria, perfectly integrating himself with the waves of students.<\/span><\/p>

When Shi HongXing and the others saw Gu Ye like this, they were energized and also determined to work hard. Even their boss was studying hard, so the lackeys couldn’t drag their boss down. If they couldn\u2019t get first-class admission or second-class admission<\/a>, they could at least try to get a third-class admission<\/span>. Worst comes to worst, they could learn a skill and open a shop. If they develop into a company, they could even hire those good at studies to work for them!<\/span>\u00a0 <\/b>\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

The whole school was submerged in a good learning atmosphere, including the bully gang, so Teacher Yu was very pleased. This was the last batch of students he would teach before his retirement. He hoped that all of them would graduate high school without regrets.<\/span><\/p>

Right before the holiday arrived and the students were just about to let out a relieved sigh, the teachers came and gave them a checklist while saying, \u201cGo back and discuss with your family which university you\u2019re going to choose after your college entrance examination.\u201d<\/span><\/p>

Gu Ye stuffed the checklist into his bag and didn\u2019t think too much of it; he already had plans for his future.<\/span><\/p>

When they were about to leave school, Zhao PengYu reminded him, \u201cI will pick you up tomorrow morning to check my house\u2019s Feng Shui.\u201d<\/span><\/p>

Gu Ye waved his hand with a smile, indicating that he\u2019d remember. After walking for more than 1km, he finally arrived at the car that had been waiting to pick him up. Gu Ye had just sat down when a figure came up from behind him and hugged him by the neck while saying, \u201cMuahaha! Tai Ling Jiu Gong, Tai Yi Shou Fang, Bai Shen Sen Wei, Xiong Mo XieSui, BuDe QinLin! Tai Shang LaoJun, Ji Ji Ru Lu Ling<\/a>! I\u2019ll take you on!<\/span>\u201d<\/span><\/p>

Gu Ye rolled his eyes and slapped the back of Gu Yang\u2019s head. \u201cAre you stupid?!\u201d<\/span><\/p>

Gu Yang just laughed mischievously before asking him in a docile manner, \u201cBrother, what do you think, is it like you? I just learned it.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

Gu Ye nodded perfunctorily. \u201cLike, really alike. Like a fool.\u201d<\/span><\/p>

Gu Yang, who received a severe blow, rested his head on Gu Ye\u2019s shoulder listlessly and didn\u2019t move after. The blow was too heavy against the child\u2019s spirit, so he needed to be comforted.<\/span><\/p>

Amused, Gu Ye patted his head helplessly and said, \u201cYou\u2019re already a big boy. Why are you still acting like a child?\u201d<\/span><\/p>

Gu Yang opened his eyes widely, his expression bitter. \u201cA child? I\u2019m a big, strong man. How can I act like a child?!\u201d<\/span><\/p>

Once again, Gu Ye nodded perfunctorily. \u201cYes, yes, my younger brother is a big, strong man. You would never act like a child. We will pass by a figurine shop in a while, your big brother will buy you a Gundam kit [t\/n]<\/span>.\u201d<\/span><\/p>

Gu Yang bounced excitedly. \u201cGreat! I\u2019ve run out of pocket money already! You still have yours, brother?!\u201d<\/span><\/p>

Gu Ye really couldn\u2019t decide whether to laugh or cry. Gu Yang was a blackhole when it came to money, he would always spend as much as he had.<\/span><\/p>

At this time, the driver said, \u201cThird Young Master, Fourth Young Master, Da Shao Ye came back yesterday and brought you two a lot of gifts. I saw a life-size Transformer inside.\u201d<\/span><\/p>

\u201cWow!\u201d Gu Yang said happily, \u201cThat must be for me! I called Big Brother some time ago and he promised to buy it for me!\u201d After thinking for a moment, Gu Yang\u2019s expression turned serious. \u201cOh, shoot! I forgot to ask Second Brother for a gift. I want a new laptop!\u201d<\/span><\/p>

Gu Ye could only laugh at this. This was the reason why he said this child didn\u2019t need to study well at all. As long as he keeps his heart pure, his brothers will make sure he has enough to live off for a lifetime.<\/span><\/p>

When they arrived home, Gu Yang immediately rushed out of the car like a wild horse while shouting with joy, \u201cBig Brother, Second Brother, we\u2019re home!\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

Compared to his younger brother\u2019s excitement, Gu Ye, who was carrying his school bag and walking slowly, was much calmer.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

On the lawn in their back garden, there was a rockery made of marble. Beside the rockery was a set of a table and chairs, also made of marble. Two young men with similar facial features sat in the chairs, playing chess. Hearing Gu Yang\u2019s voice, they both turned to his direction and smiled.<\/span><\/p>

\u201cLao Si has grown taller.\u201d The eldest son, Gu Sen, was turning 26 this year. He was more mature and looked like their father. Having a calm yet slightly strict appearance, he had the temperament of a mature elite.<\/span><\/p>

On the other hand, Gu Lin was 23 years old this year and had just graduated. His looks were similar to Gu Ye, whose looks were similar to their mother\u2019s. He had a handsome face with beautiful peach blossom eyes. When he smiled, he looked romantic, and even when his lips were only slightly curled up, he looked like a handsome young man with a gentle temperament. However, he was not a playboy, just a young master with a noble temperament. It was only when one got to know him that they would know, for a young man who was still studying at a university but had dared to start up an entertainment company which had evolved into a behemoth in the industry at such a young age, Gu Lin was by no means a gentleman.<\/span><\/p>

\u201cIf only Lao San was half as lively as Lao Si.\u201d Gu Lin, while watching Gu Ye, who was walking, said softly, \u201cLet\u2019s hold a birthday party for him this year.\u201d<\/span><\/p>

Gu Sen frowned with hesitation. \u201cI\u2019m afraid he won\u2019t accept it.\u201d<\/span><\/p>

Gu Ye\u2019s birthday was on their mother\u2019s memorial day. Their mother died from a complication after giving birth to Gu Ye, so in the first few years after his birth, their family was busy on that day sweeping their mother\u2019s grave and couldn\u2019t remember his birthday. When they wanted to hold a birthday party for him later, Gu Ye refused. They all felt the reason why Gu Ye had a gloomy personality was because they neglected him as a child. Now that they wanted to make up for it, Gu Ye had already grown up and it was too late.<\/span><\/p>

In the blink of an eye, Gu Yang had already run up to them. The eldest and second son both treated him like a child, each of them patted Gu Yang on the head, ruffling his hair into a bird\u2019s nest. Gu Yang also straight-forwardly asked with concern, \u201cBig Brother, Second Brother, where\u2019s my gift?\u201d<\/span><\/p>

Gu Sen winked at his assistant not far away from them, who then quickly found someone to push the gift over in a cart. Seeing the two-meter tall Bumblebee, Gu Yang was so excited that he jumped like a rabbit on the spot.<\/span><\/p>

Gu Lin also said with a smile, \u201cAll the gifts I bought for you have been put in your room. I also bought you the laptop you wanted.\u201d<\/span><\/p>

Hearing this, Gu Yang was so happy that he jumped all over the entire lawn. Watching his behavior, Gu Ye\u2019s lips twitched. He so wanted to tie a rope over this bear child so that he would sit still!<\/span><\/p>

When their two elder brothers looked at Gu Ye, their smiles were a bit more restrained and their eyes were also cautious. \u201cLao San, I heard you got first place in exams twice and you performed very well in your studies.\u201d<\/span><\/p>

\u201cIf there\u2019s anything you want, just tell me. I bought you a mobile phone and a computer, as well as some game consoles. They\u2019re all in your room, go and take a look. See if you like them.\u201d<\/span><\/p>

Gu Ye smiled. It really was not easy being his older brothers. \u201cThank you, Big Brother, Second Brother, for spending money.\u201d<\/span><\/p>

Gu Sen and Gu Lin were stunned by his smile because they had never seen Gu Ye smile like this ever since they were kids.<\/span><\/p>

Gu Sen and Gu Lin felt very relieved. Gu Ye finally looked and smiled like a normal person. Buying a gift can make him happy!<\/span><\/p>

Early the next morning, two security guards with two big boxes fully loaded with stuff knocked on Gu Ye\u2019s door.<\/span><\/p>

\u201cThird Young Master, this one has the gifts Young Master bought for you and the other one is from the Second Young Master.\u201d<\/span><\/p>

Gu Ye\u2019s eyes brightened and a small smile hung on his lips. After asking the two security guards to bring the boxes into his room, he closed the door and opened the boxes with a pair of scissors. The moment the box opened, the smile on his lips froze.<\/span><\/p>

\u300aFive Years of College Entrance Examination and 3 Years Simulation<\/a><\/span>\u300b, \u300aCollege Entrance Examination Must Study Questions\u300b, \u300a50 College Entrance Examination Cram Set\u300b, \u300aCollege Entrance Examination Help\u300b, \u300aCollege Entrance Examination Key Points\u300b, \u300aTop Scorer\u2019s College Entrance Examination Review\u300b, \u300aMathematics, Physics and Chemistry Cram Question Sets\u300b… The last two had 50 sets of questions per subject. They\u2019re basically endless!<\/span><\/p>

Gu Ye put down the scissors with a blank expression. His eldest brother and second brother certainly bought these books from the bookstore nearest to their home. They must have said something like, \u201cGive me a complete set of college entrance exam review materials for each subject!\u201d like the overbearing presidents they were.<\/span><\/p>

As overbearing presidents, shouldn\u2019t they give him something awesome? Or just a big fat red envelope? Who\u2019d want this kind of shit?<\/span><\/p>

When he went downstairs for breakfast the next day, Gu Ye saw Gu Yang on the sofa with the latest mobile phone in his hand, the latest laptop in his arms, and several of the latest portable gaming devices peeking through the zippers of his backpack. He looked like a rich local tyrant. With his legs crossed and swaying left and right, it was as if he was at the peak of his life. Thinking about his room full of learning materials, Gu Ye felt as if he\u2018d been dealt a fatal blow. His heart ached.<\/span><\/p>

Mrs. Gu\u2019s eyes were full of complicated emotions. Looking at her silly son who was immersed in his happiness and seeing Gu Ye coming downstairs, her heart was not at ease.<\/span><\/p>

Gu Sen and Gu Lin were really good to Gu Yang. From his childhood till now, they gave Gu Yang everything he wanted, but they had never sent him anything related to studies. There\u2019s a saying, \u201cmurder by indulging\u201d. She sometimes wondered if the two were doing this on purpose, as if they were trying to turn Gu Yang into a waste. Thinking about the two eldest sons\u2019 behavior, this didn\u2019t seem likely. But still, her heart was not at ease.<\/span><\/p>

After breakfast, Gu Yang was still immersed with his game in the living room. Taking advantage of the fact that there was no one there, Mrs. Gu quietly approached Gu Yang from behind before pinching her son\u2019s neck with her iron-like grip and whispering, \u201cYour eldest and second brothers are back, and yet you\u2019re not taking advantage of this to make an impression? What the hell are you doing?\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

Gu Yang gritted his teeth and replied, \u201cI don\u2019t wanna. It\u2019s better to ask Third Brother to play with them. They lecture me a lot and always tell me to study hard. And when Big Brother is angry, he\u2019s just like Dad, like a T-Rex. When Second Brother is angry, he just narrows his eyes and still looks good, but his aura could scare you to death. He\u2019s like Godzilla in a nice shirt, ah~ Ow!\u201d<\/span><\/p>

Mrs. Gu was so angry that she had the urge to beat up her son. <\/span>This fool! Oh, fucking hell! Does he expect the third son to give him money all his life? If their dad is gone, he can depend on his eldest and second brothers?<\/span><\/i><\/p>

Gu Yang didn\u2019t understand his mother\u2019s thoughts at all. Covering his neck, he said with a changed expression, \u201cIn fact, Third Brother is also scary when he\u2019s angry. Not like a T-Rex or a Godzilla, but like a cat that might bite people? Or a fox, maybe? It doesn\u2019t matter, he loves me anyway.\u201d<\/span><\/p>

Mrs. Gu rolled her eyes in annoyance. \u201cCan your brother be compared to cats and foxes?\u201d<\/span><\/p>

Gu Yang thought for a moment before answering, \u201cWhy not? They are all good looking. Cats and foxes are the same anyway, both have fur.\u201d<\/span><\/p>

Mrs. Gu finally couldn\u2019t hold back and slapped her son\u2019s back. \u201cLike hell they\u2019re the same. You stupid sprog, one is feline, one is canine! This is why you have to study, you can\u2019t even distinguish the species! You\u2019re so stupid, argh, I\u2019m so angry!\u201d<\/span><\/p>

Gu Yang didn\u2019t coax his mother and continued to play his games happily, leaving Mrs. Gu in anger. <\/span>This silly son, I give up!<\/span><\/i><\/p>

At this time, a luxury car stopped at the gate of the Gu Family\u2019s house. A handsome young man in sunglasses, dressed like a dandy, popped his head out of the window and asked the eldest son of the Gu Family, who had been asked to go to the company to supervise, \u201cExcuse me, is this Master Gu Ye\u2019s house?\u201d<\/span><\/p>

\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0Gu Sen\u2019s expression went cold. <\/span>Master? What Master? When did the third son get such a title?<\/span><\/i><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
