Gu Xiao’s heart warmed when she saw how anxious the two of them were to explain, but she still said, “If you encounter such a thing in the future, just tell me directly.”
After all, Gu Xiao had already experienced three lifetimes. In her previous life, she had even ascended to that highest position. She exuded a pressure that no one else had.
Sometimes, she might not notice it herself, but the people around her would feel a little uncomfortable and depressed.
Especially Jiang Meng and Wei Shu, who had yet to leave the ivory tower, it was normal for them to not be able to withstand the pressure that Gu Xiao subconsciously gave out.
Jiang Meng and Wei Shu looked at each other. They didn’t know what to think, but they still agreed on the surface.
The three of them exchanged a few simple words before continuing to do their own things.
Gu Xiao also took out the homework from her major that she had not completed before. She planned to finish the homework assigned by the teacher today.
Just as she was halfway through her homework, a notification sounded in her ear.
Gu Xiao’s hand paused on the keyboard, and she subconsciously glanced at her phone on the desk.
She thought for a second and took the phone.
The moment she turned on her phone, she saw a message from Mrs Chu.
[Xiaoxiao! Xiao Zi said that Xiao An found a major he liked. You quarreled with him because of a problem regarding his major. Is this true?!]
Just by looking at the words on the phone, Gu Xiao could feel Mrs Chu’s excitement.
[This matter is true. Now, Chu An has already agreed to transfer to a major he likes.]
After Gu Xiao’s message was sent, she did not receive another message from Mrs Chu immediately.
After waiting for a while and seeing that there was still no message, she put her phone aside again and continued with the homework that she had previously been doing.
When there was only less than half of her homework left, Gu Xiao’s message notification sounded. This time, Gu Xiao did not need to guess to know who sent the message.
Gu Xiao turned on her phone and indeed saw Mrs Chu’s message.
[I’m sorry, Xiaoxiao. 1 was too excited just now, so 1 called Xiao An directly and didn’t reply to you in time.]
[Aunt Chu, you don’t have to be concerned about such a small matter.]
Mrs Chu didn’t seem to get the answer she wanted from Chu An, so she asked indirectly about how Chu An had discovered his interest.
In the end, Mrs Chu sent Gu Xiao a message very seriously.
[No matter what, we’re all very grateful to you, Xiaoxiao. If it weren’t for you, Xiao An would probably…]
Mrs Chu did not finish her sentence, but Gu Xiao understood what the other party wanted to say.
After the celebration banquet, she had more contact with Mrs Chu. She had learned some things from Mrs Chu of the time before she met Chu An.
Chu An had been weak in health since he was young, and there were many things he couldn’t and didn’t dare to do. Mr Chu, Mrs Chu, and Chu Zi had protected Chu An very well, but as time passed, Chu An still displayed a certain degree of indifference and world-wearyness.
It was unknown if it was because of the aftereffects of his previously weak body, but even after Chu An recovered, he still looked like he was completely uninterested about the outside world.
Mrs Chu and Mr Chu even brought Chu An to see a psychiatrist. The psychiatrist said that Chu An’s condition wasn’t very good and he could have the thought of leaving this world at any time.
After knowing about this, Mrs Chu and Mr Chu discussed it and sent him to an ordinary high school despite Chu An’s objections. They hoped that this could make Chu An a little interested in this world and have more contact with it.
And meeting Gu Xiao was a surprise that Mr Chu and Mrs Chu could not ask for more.
Seeing that Chu An’s personality was becoming more and more “lively”, Mr Chu and Mrs Chu finally let go of their long-standing worries.
Now that they knew that Chu An was more interested and having more contact with the world outside of Gu Xiao, Mr Chu and Mrs Chu were naturally very happy. They even wished that Chu An could change majors as soon as possible and learn what he was interested in.
Gu Xiao rubbed the side of her phone with her index finger. When she saw the message from Mrs Chu, her eyes darkened.
After a few seconds, Gu Xiao started typing.
[This is what I should do. Mrs Chu, don’t take it to heart.]
To her, Chu An was also the most important person. She naturally hoped that Chu An would get better and better..
