Upon hearing something about cheating, Teacher Yu\u2019s already serious expression became even more severe. \u201cYou and Gu Ye weren\u2019t in the same examination room, so how could you know that he cheated?\u201d<\/span><\/p>

Seeing the teacher\u2019s displeased expression, Lin ZiHao was slightly nervous. \u201cHe used a special method. Not only do I know about this, but Liu YiWen, Xia Xiang, and Zhao PengYu all know about it as well.\u201d<\/span><\/p>

Teacher Yu frowned. \u201cYou need to have evidence.\u201d<\/span><\/p>

\u201cHe must have used some abnormal means. If you ask him to retake the exam, then you\u2019ll see.\u201d<\/span><\/p>

\u201cThat means you have no evidence?\u201d asked Teacher Yu with raised eyebrows.<\/span><\/p>

\u201cI know, I\u2026\u201d Lin ZiHao gritted his teeth and whispered, \u201cGu Ye can control ghosts. He must have some ghost-catching equipment in his bag, and I\u2019m sure you can find it if you check. The ghosts must have told him the answers on the exam.\u201d<\/span><\/p>

A serious old scholar like Teacher Yu would never believe in ghosts or gods. \u201cNonsense!\u201d As soon as Lin ZiHao finished speaking, Mr. Yu angrily scolded him. \u201cWhat year do you think this is? Ghosts and gods are born from people\u2019s imaginations, and various phenomena can always be explained scientifically. Even if they\u2019re unexplainable now, they will be later as technology improves. If you don\u2019t understand these things, then you should read more books. How can you still believe in feudal superstitions when you\u2019re already a high school senior?\u201d<\/span><\/p>

\u201cNo, Mr. Yu. You have to believe me. Gu Ye really can control ghosts! He often has a little bottle in his pocket, and there must be a female ghost in that thing. He also helped ghosts kill people. If you don\u2019t believe it, you can check his dormitory and bag. There must be something there.\u201d<\/span><\/p>

Mr. Yu\u2019s expression became heavier and his gaze on Lin ZiHao was like looking at a wretched palace concubine before he took out the paper Gu Ye used for calculations on his Mathematics exam. \u201cLook at this. The teacher who oversaw the exam in Gu Ye\u2019s examination room collected it. You can see from the calculations that Gu Ye truly worked on his answers by himself. How can there be any ghosts?\u201d<\/span><\/p>

Lin ZiHao couldn\u2019t believe it when he saw the calculation process on the paper. There were several questions he couldn\u2019t solve that Gu Ye did. \u201cHe must have had a ghost possessing him during the test!\u201d The more Lin ZiHao thought about it, the more certain he was that he was correct. \u201cHe\u2019s not able to do these questions at all normally, so how can he answer none of them wrong during the exam?\u201d<\/span><\/p>

Seeing that he was still unrepentant, Mr. Yu angrily slammed his mug onto the table. \u201cLin ZiHao!\u201d<\/span><\/p>

Lin ZiHao was frightened and shivered as if a basin of cold water had been poured on him, instantly calming him down. Cold sweat dripped from his forehead and he didn\u2019t dare to make a sound.<\/span><\/p>

Teacher Yu lectured him with a disappointed tone, hating iron for not becoming a steel<\/span>. \u201cConsidering your record, I\u2019ll let this slide, but don\u2019t talk nonsense in the future. I know you can\u2019t accept that Gu Ye did better than you in this exam, but you can\u2019t slander people. If you have the time to meddle in Gu Ye\u2019s affairs, it would be better to spend that time caring about your own business. In just three months, you\u2019ve fallen more than three hundred places. If you go on like this, will you even be qualified to take an exam? You can\u2019t even pass two quizzes!\u201d<\/span><\/p>

Hearing this, Lin ZiHao\u2019s complexion turned pale. \u201cI\u2019m sorry, teacher! I w-will study hard!\u201d<\/span><\/p>

Teacher Yu said with a helpless tone, \u201cGo.\u201d<\/span><\/p>

Lin ZiHao regretted his impulsivity. He should have found evidence first before going to the teacher. Teacher Yu wouldn\u2019t believe a one-sided accusation.<\/span><\/p>

Going back to the classroom in a daze, Lin ZiHao sat in his seat. The students around him thought that the teacher had called on him to lecture him on his performance in the exam, so they all comforted him. \u201cDon\u2019t think too much about it. Next time, you will perform well. You still have a chance.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

Lin ZiHao absent-mindedly nodded and opened the drawer to take out the textbook for the next class. Unexpectedly, when he opened the drawer, he was frightened and his heart thumped madly. His mind froze for a moment. The paper he had hidden in the bottom of the drawer was now on top and the word \u201cRead\u201d was written on it. This meant that the thing he wanted to do had already been discovered.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

What the paper contained was information pertaining to the death of Song King, Li Rui, and Gu Ye\u2019s involvement. He intended to sell this information to a newspaper company to earn some money, but he had been late and missed the bus this morning and didn\u2019t have time to submit it. He put it in his school bag for the time being.<\/span><\/p>

Lin ZiHao saw something faintly on the back of the paper and nervously turned it over. It was a chibi drawing depicting a student who was about to take the college entrance exam. However, while using the bathroom before the exam, his exam ID fell into the toilet and he wasn\u2019t let into the exam hall. Lin ZiHao was confused, but the words written in vigorous calligraphy made his pupils shrink.<\/span><\/p>

With astonishment, he read: From Gu Ye!<\/span><\/p>

Gu Ye knew?<\/span><\/p>

Lin ZiHao suddenly remembered that Gu Ye had asked him earlier if he had done anything to apologize for. Then, Gu Ye had also said that it was not now but not necessarily so later when he denied it. So not only can Gu Ye catch ghosts, but he can also see the future?<\/span><\/p>

Lin ZiHao looked at Gu Ye in horror. Coincidentally, Gu Ye also looked back at him and grinned. The slightly upturned corner of his lips was so miniscule that it wasn\u2019t even frightening, yet Lin ZiHao felt his scalp go numb as he pictured Gu Ye\u2019s image while catching the ghost.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

Gu Ye raised his index finger and placed it on his lips, making a shushing sound before turning back around and no longer facing him. This frightened Lin ZiHao even more. Gu Ye was basically telling him to keep his mouth shut and not to talk nonsense with other people. It meant he knew everything. That drawing wouldn\u2019t be a curse, right? Will he really miss the college entrance examination? Lin ZiHao almost went crazy at the thought. He hurriedly tore up the papers and threw them into the trash can with cold sweat all over his body.<\/span><\/p>

\u201cGu Ye, I\u2019m…I\u2019m sorry!\u201d Lin ZiHao summoned up the courage and went to Gu Ye\u2019s desk after class to offer him a sincere apology. He was afraid that he would miss the college entrance exam as depicted in the drawing and afraid of Gu Ye\u2019s punishment for his deeds.<\/span><\/p>

Gu Ye looked at him before spitting out a sentence with a smile. \u201cGo away.\u201d<\/span><\/p>

\u00a0<\/p>

\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014<\/span><\/p>

\u00a0<\/p>

Gu Ye had just finished his lunch when a classmate told him that Teacher Yu was looking for him.<\/span><\/p>

Gu Ye found the teacher\u2019s office after asking around and saw Teacher Yu, who was wearing a pair of glasses, reading a paper. Seeing him, Teacher Yu looked up and said, \u201cGu Ye, sit here.\u201d<\/span><\/p>

Gu Ye obediently sat down, looking exceptionally docile.<\/span><\/p>

\u201cI looked at your calculation paper. Your progress was so great that the teachers all think it\u2019s incredible. Even your writing is so beautiful now.\u201d Mr. Yu stared into Gu Ye\u2019s eyes and said seriously, \u201cI will give you a few more questions, can you do them?\u201d<\/span><\/p>

Gu Ye nodded in a well-behaved manner. \u201cYes.\u201d<\/span><\/p>

Mr. Yu took out a sheet with new questions that he had prepared in advance from his drawer and handed it to Gu Ye who then took it and began to write. It didn\u2019t take him long to finish the questions.<\/span><\/p>

Mr. Yu looked at the answers and his eyes showed joy. His serious expression morphed into a smile. \u201cGood, very good! Gu Ye, work hard from now on!\u201d<\/span><\/p>

After a while, Mr. Yu posted Gu Ye\u2019s examination papers along with his calculation papers and the set of questions Gu Ye just did under his supervision on the school bulletin board to prove that Gu Ye got first place on the exam this time around solely by relying on his own ability.<\/span><\/p>

This time around the whole school went into a frenzy, and those who had said that it was impossible were collectively slapped in the face!<\/span><\/p>

Many teachers told their students, \u201cThere are no stupid students, only students who don\u2019t work hard! Gu Ye must have taken advantage of the winter holiday to study while you guys were going out to play! Someone who has always been at the bottom of the rankings became first on the rankings in one fell swoop, so inspirational! Open your eyes and see! Learn from this example!\u201d<\/span><\/p>

A lot of students secretly went to observe Gu Ye, wondering how he studied to improve his grades in such a short period of time.<\/span><\/p>

Gu Ye now felt that he was not just a strange creature, but a strange creature with a panda head. Now, even when he went to the bathroom, there would be people paying attention to him. <\/span>Sorry fellas, I don\u2019t want the attention.<\/span><\/i><\/p>

\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014<\/span><\/p>

\u00a0<\/p>

The holidays finally arrived and when he went home, Mrs. Gu rushed to him and excitedly asked him before he could even take off his shoes, \u201cLao San, did you get the first place on the exam? First place in the whole school?\u201d<\/span><\/p>

Gu Ye nodded tiredly. \u201cHow did you know?\u201d<\/span><\/p>

At this time, Gu DeCheng also came down from the second floor with joy in his eyes. \u201cMr. Yu called me and said that you\u2019ve made great progress.\u201d<\/span><\/p>

\u201cYes, yes, yes. The teacher praised you a lot!\u201d said Mrs. Gu happily. \u201cYour father didn\u2019t go to the company today just to wait for you to come home so he could reward you!\u201d<\/span><\/p>

Gu Ye raised his eyebrows, and when he saw that Gu DeCheng was holding a thick red envelope, his eyes instantly brightened.<\/span><\/p>

\u201cI will study hard, make persistent efforts, and will definitely achieve good grades next time too!\u201d Gu Ye turned serious and bowed deeply to his parents. \u201cI\u2019m sorry to make you worry before.\u201d<\/span><\/p>

Mrs. Gu was startled. <\/span>Why is he being so melodramatic all of a sudden? How embarrassing.<\/span><\/i><\/p>

Gu DeCheng originally wanted to lecture him to not be too proud. Unexpectedly, his son was so sensible that he had to swallow the words he was about to say. Putting the thick red envelope in Gu Ye\u2019s hands, he said seriously, \u201cOur family rule is that if you get the highest score on science or mathematics papers, the reward is ten thousand yuan. Getting first place on the exam is another ten thousand yuan. If you can still get first place next time, I\u2019ll double the amount.\u201d<\/span><\/p>

\u201cThank you, Dad!\u201d Hugging the red envelope tightly, Gu Ye happily ran upstairs.<\/span><\/p>

Seeing his brother getting a thick red envelope, Gu Yang scratched his head. \u201cThat, I also improved my ranking by three on this exam. Do I get no red envelope?\u201d<\/span><\/p>

Before Gu DeCheng could speak, Mrs. Gu already beat him to the punch. \u201cI\u2019ll reward you with an extra helping of drumsticks.\u201d<\/span><\/p>

\u201cHehe.\u201d Gu Yang happily carried his bag and ran upstairs with joy.<\/span><\/p>

Mrs. Gu sighed silently. <\/span>What else can I do? This silly child is satisfied with only an extra helping of drumsticks. Don\u2019t you see how thick your big brother\u2019s red envelope is? You can buy a truckload of drumsticks with that!<\/span><\/i><\/p>

Back in his room, Gu Ye opened the red envelope and saw the fifty thousand yuan stacked inside. Gu DeCheng really was worthy of the title National Father [t\/n]<\/span>.<\/span><\/p>

Gu Yang, who had quietly followed him, asked curiously, \u201cBrother, how much did Dad give you?\u201d<\/span><\/p>

Gu Ye beckoned the child with his index finger and watched Gu Yang obediently come over like a large husky. Pulling out a dozen red bills [t\/n]<\/span> and putting them in his brother\u2019s hands, Gu Ye whispered, \u201cTake it and buy that console you like. Don\u2019t let Mom know.\u201d<\/span><\/p>

Because if Mrs. Gu knew, these red bills would definitely be confiscated, just like when he won the lottery before.<\/span><\/p>

Gu Yang immediately rushed up to hug Gu Ye\u2019s leg. \u201cBrother! I will make money when I grow up! I\u2019ll make money and give it to you!\u201d<\/span><\/p>

Gu Ye patted Gu Yang\u2019s head and wanted to say: <\/span>Don\u2019t be silly, my child. You won\u2019t make money in this life. Just wait obediently for the dividend from the company.<\/span><\/i><\/p>

At noon, Mrs. Gu and the cook lady made a lot of dishes together, and Gu DeCheng happily drank a small cup of wine. Gu Ye looked at his father\u2019s glabella and said with concern, \u201cTake a good rest at home today, Dad. Don\u2019t go to the company, it will rain heavily soon and it will be dangerous.\u201d<\/span><\/p>

Gu DeCheng looked out the window. <\/span>The sun is shining brightly, what rain?<\/span><\/i><\/p>

Because Gu DeCheng nearly had a car accident the last time, the still shocked Mrs. Gu immediately advised, \u201cNo matter whether it will rain later or not, we have a happy event today and you\u2019ve already drunk wine. If there\u2019s nothing important at the company, then don\u2019t go today. It\u2019s not often that you get to rest at home.\u201d<\/span><\/p>

Persuaded by his wife, Gu DeCheng said after hesitating for a bit, \u201cOkay, then I won\u2019t go.\u201d<\/span><\/p>

Unexpectedly, it really did rain in the afternoon, quite abruptly so. After it rained the whole afternoon, an event was reported in the evening news. Because of the rain, the tunnel flooded, causing more than a dozen vehicles to be trapped inside. Firemen rushed to the scene, and fortunately, there were no casualties.<\/span><\/p>

Looking at the time and place stated in the news, the tunnel just happened to be the one Gu DeCheng always took when going to his office. Mrs. Gu was terrified when she saw the news and said, \u201cOh my God! Lao San is really divine!\u201d<\/span><\/p>

Gu DeCheng could barely mask the surprise and fear in his eyes before saying with a calm expression, \u201cWhat nonsense. It\u2019s just a coincidence.\u201d<\/span><\/p>

Mrs. Gu didn\u2019t pay attention to her husband\u2019s attempt at feigning calmness. \u201cNo, I have to make Lao San calculate when I will get rich.\u201d With that, she left hurriedly to search for Gu Ye.<\/span><\/p>

At this time, Zhao PengYu finally came out of the internet cafe. The college entrance examination was around the corner, so his mother banned him from playing with his computer and mobile phone. He couldn\u2019t stop himself from running to the internet cafe first thing in the morning. Unexpectedly, it started raining in the afternoon for a long time before stopping. In his hurry to get home, Zhao PengYu took a shortcut with his mountain bike and rode like crazy. It was dark at this hour, and there were not many pedestrians on the streets. Zhao PengYu suddenly saw something golden in front of him and rode over to see. Surprisingly, it was a red embroidered bag<\/a><\/span> with some gold thread.<\/span><\/p>

Zhao PengYu picked it up. The cloth was quite worn out and there was a dragon and a phoenix embroidered on it. It looked like something used by people in the 1980\u2019s for their marriages. Zhao PengYu opened the bag to take a look and was shocked. \u201cWhat the fuck! So much money?! Wouldn\u2019t the person who lost this money be losing their minds now?\u201d<\/span><\/p>

The kind-hearted young man stood there waiting for half an hour, but no one came to search for the bag. Seeing that it was getting really late, and that if he didn\u2019t return home soon, his family would be worried, Zhao PengYu simply put the bag in his arms and planned to take it to the police station later.<\/span><\/p>

What Zhao PengYu didn\u2019t notice was that, just as he passed by, the road that had been blurred by the rain revealed a concrete cast column. This was an old bridge that had been deliberately hidden after being abandoned.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
