Xia Yangyang remained silent from start to finish.
But her heart was still very upset.
Gu Qichen’s decision to move out clearly meant he believed there was something going on between her and Gu Zhaohan.
After dinner, Xia Yangyang didn’t want to stay in her room.
She felt inexplicably suffocated.
So, she went out to the yard.
There was a marble bench in the yard.
Xia Yangyang sat on it, blankly gazing at the night sky.
Oscar came over and rubbed his nose against Xia Yangyang’s ankle.
Xia Yangyang bent down and stroked Oscar’s fluffy head.
“What’s the matter with you?”
Xia Yangyang didn’t know how long she had been sitting.
A cold voice suddenly came from behind her.
Turning around, she saw Gu Zhaohan.
Xia Yangyang stood up abruptly.
For some reason, she felt inexplicably nervous.
Probably because she knew that Gu Qichen had misunderstood their relationship, so now, there seemed to be a knot in her heart.
Xia Yangyang slightly hooked her mouth in a smile, “Nothing, just playing with Oscar for a while.”
Gu Zhaohan also came over, squatted down, petted Oscar, and asked, “I was asking what’s wrong between you and Uncle?”
Xia Yangyang didn’t expect Gu Zhaohan to ask this.
She pretended to be very natural and said, “We’re fine. Why do you ask?”
“I can tell Uncle is upset.”
In reality, Gu Qichen’s behavior hadn’t really changed from his normal demeanor. Xia Yangyang didn’t know how Gu Zhaohan had noticed.
But she would never tell Gu Zhaohan about Gu Qichen misunderstanding their relationship, no matter what happened.
It was far too outrageous, and extremely awkward.
Xia Yangyang changed the subject, “You seem to know your uncle very well.”
Gu Zhaohan was silent for a while, “From a young age, I’ve always seen him as my goal, my idol. Uncle is very outstanding, able to shoulder the Shengyuan Group at 17 years old. He is a genius, but I’m not. No matter how hard I try, I can’t catch up to him. So whether it’s grandfather or mother, only Uncle catches their eye.”
Xia Yangyang was taken aback.
It was surprising that someone as cold as Gu Zhaohan would say such things.
You must know, at A University he was considered a genius by others, the most outstanding academic achiever in the medical school.
Why would he think like this?
Xia Yangyang suddenly realized, Gu Zhaohan must have lived under the shadow of Gu Qichen’s success from an early age. His psychological pressure must be quite heavy.
“Actually, you don’t have to measure yourself against your uncle’s life trajectory. You are you, not anyone else. Why do you need to compare yourself to him?”
“It’s because I don’t want my mother to forever only say goodnight to Uncle, reminding him to eat on time, preparing his luggage, bring him gifts, only ever seeing him.”
When Gu Zhaohan said this, there was no jealousy in his voice, but profound sadness and helplessness instead.
For a while, Xia Yangyang didn’t know what to say.
The two could only sit in silence, with Oscar sniffing around their feet.
“Xiao Han.” The cold voice of Gu Qichen came from behind.
Xia Yangyang and Gu Zhaohan both turned their heads.
Gu Qichen came over and handed Gu Zhaohan a gift box, “This is a gift for you.”
Every time he goes on a business trip, Gu Qichen would always bring back a gift for him.
Gu Zhaohan opened it and it turned out to be a car key.
Gu Qichen said, “You’re about to graduate, I supposed you’ll need it. The car is ordered from overseas, it will be delivered home in a month. It’s just an ordinary Volkswagen. The cars at home are too flashy for your internship, I’m giving you this car for commuting. I hope your first nice car purchase will be with your own salary.”
In fact, there were many cars in the basement of Gu mansion, but they were all luxuriously expensive.
Gu Zhaohan said, “Thank you, Uncle.”
Gu Qichen was silent for a second and said, “This gift was actually selected by your auntie. If not for her, I wouldn’t have thought of this. You should thank your auntie too..”
