The Regent's Little Wife

As for that bitch Gu Nian, no one likes her anyway. "Brother, this is nothing. Brother Yan said he would give me a surprise, so this is the surprise... This is no big deal, brother. As the daughter of the Gu family, I should share the family responsibility." Gu Yao was shameless and took everything that should belong to Gu Nian for herself.

Gu Yao secretly rejoiced in her heart, Gu Nian, oh Gu Nian, even if you saved Xiao Yan's father, those honors and achievements will eventually belong to me. You are destined to be eclipsed by my halo.

On the other hand, Xiao Guoqiang generously took out a sum of 50 million yuan of personal funds and asked his assistant to transfer it to Gu Nian's account as a token of gratitude for her kindness. He assigned Assistant An to handle the matter.

Assistant An took the check with mixed feelings, as if he was weighing something. Then he went straight to Gu Group and handed the check to Gu Jingxuan.

He explained tactfully that this was prepared by their boss to thank Miss Gu, but since Miss Gu was not yet an adult, the check was first handed over to Gu Jingxuan, who then handed it over to his sister.

Assistant An thought to himself that Gu Nian was the daughter of the Gu family and rarely showed up in public. If he gave her such a huge check directly, it might cause unnecessary trouble.

However, he did not know the real situation in the Gu family, and thought that Gu Jingxuan would know who the Miss Gu he was talking about was. He did not mention Gu Nian's name directly, but only vaguely referred to her as Miss Gu.

After completing the delivery, Assistant An left in a hurry. Gu Jingxuan had already decided that the achievement belonged to Gu Yao, but he did not expect Assistant An to send him another check for 50 million and mentioned the daughter of the Gu family again.

In his heart, the only daughter of the Gu family was Gu Yao, as she was publicly announced. Therefore, he was even more certain that the achievement should belong to Gu Yao. His heart was filled with excitement and pride, thinking that Gu Yao was indeed the lucky star of the Gu family, who was able to win the favor of the Xiao family at the age of only seventeen.

Gu Nian, however, knew nothing about this. She was fully engaged in preparing for the physics competition. At first, she was reluctant to participate in the competition, but after the teacher's persuasion, she reluctantly agreed.

The teacher told her that if she could win first place in this competition, she would be admitted to the university without having to take the college entrance examination.

Therefore, Gu Nian has been studying hard these days. Although physics is her strong point, she knows that she can win the competition even if she closes her eyes, but if she doesn't work hard, people will inevitably talk about her behind her back. After all, villains have existed since ancient times, and it is hard to guard against them.

In a blink of an eye, the day of the physics competition arrived. The competition was held in a well-known high school in the city. At the same time, in a spacious and bright office, two people were sitting around a tea set and chatting happily.

One of them is an old man wearing glasses and a Zhongshan suit, while the other is a handsome young man - Gu Jingxiu, the fourth brother of the Gu family. Gu Jingxiu is the most handsome among the four brothers of the Gu family, with a slim figure and a height of 1.8 meters. He is the prince charming in the hearts of many young girls.

The old man's name is Gao Liang, and he is the person in charge of today's competition. He smiled kindly and said, "Gu Xiu, it's great that you can come. I remember you were a little boy who loved to cry when you were young, but I didn't expect that you are a doctor now. The teacher used to think highly of you, and you were the only one in the class who passed the doctoral exam."

It turned out that Gao Liang was Gu Jingxiu's high school physics teacher. Since Gu Jingxiu was admitted to university, the two have been in contact. Today, Gu Jingxiu was invited as a special guest. Because he was the champion of the S City Physics Competition, his arrival undoubtedly added some brilliance to the competition.

At this moment, a staff member walked into the room and announced softly: "Teacher Gao, Teacher Gu, the time is up and the competition is about to begin."

Gao Liang nodded slightly and replied: "Okay."

In the lecture hall, a banner was hung high - "S City's 38th High School Physics Knowledge Competition".

On the rostrum, teachers and leaders sat upright; below the stage, two or three hundred contestants waited.

The host introduced them one by one: "This is Mr. Gao Liang, the chief helmsman of this competition. Please give him a warm applause..." "This one..."

"The last one is our special guest, Mr. Gu Jingxiu, who is a senior among us and the champion of the physics competition in the past."

The unrivalled brilliance still shines. Gu Jingxiu sits on the podium and nods to everyone with his unique elegance.

Students and teachers were talking to each other in the audience. They had never expected that Teacher Gao would invite Gu Jingxiu! This former champion of the physics competition had been so glorious that no one could surpass him in the past five years.

At this time, someone suddenly exclaimed, "Gu Jingxiu, the son of Gu Group, his eldest brother is Gu Jingxuan"

Someone else continued to echo, "I've heard that among the six siblings of the Gu family, the fourth child, Gu Jingxiu, was the most outstanding in academics. He won the college entrance examination with a score of 730. Now, Gu Jingxiu has successfully obtained a doctorate degree."

"Wow, he is not only handsome, but also very wealthy. He is so lucky!" His arrival caused a small ripple among the crowd.

Gu Nian sat in the audience, frowning, her heart agitated. Why did he show up? And he was a special guest?

Shen Ruci looked at Gu Nian with worry in his eyes. He was well aware of the entanglement between Gu Nian and the Gu family.

He held Gu Nian's hand tightly, "Niannian, don't think too much, I always believe in you. Just focus on answering the questions, nothing else matters."

With the host's introduction and the leaders' encouragement, the competition officially kicked off. The scene gradually fell silent, and students handed in their mobile phones one after another. Then the test papers were distributed one by one. This year's number of questions was unusually large, and the competition lasted for three hours. This is the feature of the competition, and the difficulty is far beyond the level of the national examination.

"Ladies and gentlemen, the competition officially begins now. Please answer your questions." This is a tiered classroom. Each student occupies a long table with open space on all sides, making it easy for the invigilator to patrol.

On the podium, Gu Jingxiu and Gao Liang also picked up the test papers and quickly glanced through them.

Gao Liang sighed, "This year's questions are extremely difficult. I'm afraid it's the most difficult one in more than a decade. I'm afraid it's a foolish dream to beat a doctor like you."

Gu Jingxiu examined the questions and nodded, "It's really not easy. There are still a few difficult questions at the end. The difficulty has already jumped above high school level, which is definitely not something that ordinary high school students can achieve."

Gu Jingxiu chuckled, "You are too polite."

He examined the test paper, his eyes swept over the students who were writing furiously, and his thoughts drifted back to his school days. Suddenly, his eyes lit up and a familiar figure came into view.

"Gu Nian!" he muttered to himself. Looking down from the rostrum, he had an excellent view and finally caught sight of Tang Xiao.

"This ungrateful guy actually dared to participate in the competition!" Gu Jingxiu felt unhappy. Since he graduated with a doctorate, he has been busy with scientific research all day long, and the laboratory has become his second home.

However, this does not mean that he is unaware of the turmoil at home. He knows very well that the atmosphere at home is heavy because of Gu Nian. Gu Nian and his father Gu Shanhai frequently quarreled, even to the point of vowing to sever ties, which made Gu Jingxiu increasingly disgusted with Gu Nian.

Worse still, Gu Nian once stole property from the family, and it has not been found yet. Gu Jingxiu was furious: Not only did you steal the family property, but you also pissed off your father, and now you are pretending to study hard for the exam! How shameless!
