Chapter 22 Yu Xiaoan, I found you again

Gu Mingxing hasn't seen Yu Xiaoan for several days, and Yu Xiaoan hasn't contacted him either. Maybe it's because he is at school and Yu Xiaoan knows it's not convenient to call him.

The head teacher asked Gu Mingxing to go to the office. Gu Mingxing stood beside the head teacher's desk. The head teacher turned a pen in his hand and asked, "How is your grandfather?"

Gu Mingxing said calmly, "The situation is sometimes good and sometimes bad. The doctor said that if Grandpa keeps a good mood recently, the situation may get better."

"Okay, your family just called and said you have to go to the hospital after evening self-study. Your grandfather misses you," the head teacher said helplessly, "You have made great progress in your studies recently. I hope you can adjust your mentality and don't fall behind in your studies."

"I understand, teacher."

Gu Mingxing walked out of the school holding a book. The driver noticed the book in his hand and asked with concern: "Master, do you still need to do your homework?"

"I'm still just a student. Isn't it a student's duty to study?"

The driver was stunned for a moment, and the corners of his mouth rose slightly: "Master is right."

Gu Mingxing lowered the car window and propped up his jaw with one hand. The driver saw his young master's worried look through the mirror and asked, "Young Master, have you encountered anything at school recently?"

If it was Gu Mingxing under normal circumstances, he would not answer the driver's question at all, but he was lost in thought now: "If you have a friend and you can't contact her for some reason, but you miss her very much, what would you do?"

The driver replied, "If it was the Gu family, they would definitely tie this person to their side and use a reason that the other party could not refuse to prevent the other party from leaving. But you are a young master, you would not do this. If you were a young master, you would definitely think about how to contact the other party when the other party is free."

Gu Mingxing glanced at him and said coldly: "If other people hear this, you won't even see what tomorrow will look like."

"But you are the young master."

Gu Mingxing did not respond to him. He looked at the scenery outside the car window and was lost in thought again.

"Master, do I need to prepare other clothes for you?"

Gu Mingxing was currently wearing the school uniform. He knew that in order to let the Qian family see that he valued them, he should change his clothes. However, he thought it was too much trouble and wanted to refuse. But he heard the driver say, "Master, I suggest you change. After all, you have to leave a good impression."

"Okay, you arrange it."

"Yes," the driver drove the car to the styling shop where they had made an appointment long ago. Gu Mingxing squinted at the driver and said, "You already made an appointment long ago, why are you asking me?"

The driver smiled faintly and said, "The young master's wishes are still very important."

Gu Mingxing said as he walked in, "If it's really important, don't tell my father about my actions."

The driver smiled but said nothing. Gu Mingxing knew he couldn't do it, so he snorted coldly.

After changing his clothes and doing a simple hairstyle, the driver drove the young master, who was unwilling to talk to him, to the door of the bar that the Qian family was about to open.

For the wealthy Qian family, opening a bar does not require the presence of Qian family members in person, because a bar is insignificant, but this bar is the Qian family's token of their intention to join the Gu, Huo and Xu families, so not only Gu Mingxing is there, but also Huo Ting's mother Hua Ting.

Hua Ting is a decisive woman. Although she is a female in appearance and biological structure, her temper is more intense than that of men. She is even crazier than a mad man. Therefore, she has a nickname on the street - Crazy Man. However, only one person can call her this nickname in front of her, and others can only call her behind her back.

This nickname was given to her by Huo Ting's father. To talk about Hua Ting's reaction after getting this nickname is another story. It was also because of this nickname that Hua Ting and Huo Ting's father Huo Lin became acquainted and gave birth to Huo Ting.

Mr. Qian walked out of the bar with a flattering smile: "Oh, Sister Hua, you are here," he did not treat Sister Hua as a woman at all, and held Hua Ting's whole palm: "Sister Hua, you haven't been waiting for long," he made a "please" gesture like a doorman.

Hua Ting nodded with a half-smile, then turned to look at Gu Mingxing who had just arrived. She instantly became happy and waved: "Xiao Xingxing, you are here too, come quickly."

Gu Mingxing didn't like people calling him by his nickname outside, but this was Hua Ting. Even if he knew she wouldn't change even if he reminded her again, he still reminded her again: "Auntie Hua, don't call me by my nickname outside."

Hua Ting put her hands on his shoulders: "What's the big deal? Let's go in together."

Before being brought in by Hua Ting, Gu Mingxing noticed Mr. Qian's expression. It was a thoughtful and evil expression, and the flattering smile on his face was instantly retracted from the perspective that Hua Ting could not see.

"An old fox who wants to have a piece of meat as soon as he sees it," Hua Ting seemed to know Mr. Qian's psychology and whispered this in front of Gu Mingxing.

"Auntie Hua," Gu Mingxing said with a faint smile, "Is it appropriate to say this in front of a child like me?"

Hua Ting knew his character very well: "Didn't Xiao Xingxing change her clothes just because she knew?" She spotted the Qian family's daughter and signaled with her eyes: "Your target should be there."

"Aunt Hua really knows everything."

Hua Ting gently pushed him, and the happy expression she had when she saw him just now immediately disappeared. She only had a fake smile on her face and made a gesture to him to keep quiet. With just one action, Hua Ting's temperament changed completely. She looked like a queen, noble but extremely attractive to others.

The little white rabbit in the fox den saw Gu Mingxing coming and waved to him happily and reservedly. Gu Mingxing treated the next thing to do as a job and greeted him with a smile.

Mr. Qian found Hua Ting and saw her sitting on the counter with her hands on the table while the bartender waved his arms in front of her to mix drinks. He knew very well that whether this bar could succeed depended entirely on Hua Ting's words.

He walked over and didn't sit next to Hua Ting. Hua Ting noticed it and turned around to sit and look at Mr. Qian: "What does Mr. Qian like to drink? This bartender seems to know how to do everything."

"I hired this person at a high salary. If Sister Hua likes me, you can take me away directly."

The bartender was visibly stunned when he heard this. Hua Ting crossed her legs and placed her hands on her lap, looking at him with a faint smile: "Does the bartender know about this? If I want to drink, I can just come back. Why bother someone to come to my house?"

"Sister Hua, if you want to come, the door is always open for you!"

Hua Ting sneered secretly, glanced at him with contempt, and continued to wait for her drink. Seeing that she had not mentioned anything about the journey, Mr. Qian sat next to her and said to the bartender: "Give me a glass of the drink that Sister Hua ordered."

"Mr. Qian has a good alcohol tolerance, but I don't know if he can drink more."

Mr. Qian thought Hua Ting had some hidden meaning in her words, as if she was accepting a challenge: "You won't know if you can drink it until you try."

Hua Ting stopped talking and just said thank you to the bartender who placed the drink in front of her. Mr. Qian looked a little frustrated and asked directly, "I wonder if Sister Hua is satisfied with what she saw today?"

Hua Ting shook the glass and said, "This drink is well-mixed. I am satisfied."

"Sister Hua, you should know what I mean."

There were quite a few bosses sitting in the booth behind Hua Ting. Matters concerning the road were very serious. Hua Ting was not happy with the fact that he had invited several people from the roadside, but she also knew what Mr. Qian was thinking, and wanted to let others see that there was a connection between the Qian family and the Huo family.

Hua Ting is very clear about this, but in her eyes it is just a child's trick of playing house. So what if she knows there is a connection? Other people are not fools. Having a connection does not mean a good relationship.

"Sister Hua, can you have me on that road?"

Mr. Qian was talking about "your path", and there was only one "I". Hua Ting looked at the little rabbit who was chatting happily with Gu Mingxing with interest: "Just one Mr. Qian? Isn't that Mr. Qian's family member?"

“I can guarantee that my daughter will not know about the existence of this road and will not participate in it.”

"You won't participate?" Hua Ting sneered, "Aren't these people also invited by Mr. Qian? I want them to see the relationship between your family and mine. If they can't get involved, at least it will save face in future business negotiations."

There are a lot of nepotism in this world, but few people think about whether this "nepotism" is as thick as a city wall and indestructible, or as thin as a cicada's wing that will fall apart at the slightest touch. They just think that it exists.

Hua Ting finished the wine in her glass, but the ice cubes had not melted yet. She poured the ice in the glass onto the table: "I can pick you up for the sake of face, but," she turned the glass upside down on the ice: "I can't have you on the road."

"Why? I opened this store just to..."

"Mr. Qian," Hua Ting looked at him coldly, "You don't have a light here, and the road is so dark, can you see clearly?" She pointed at the little rabbit over there and said, "If you want to go this way, bring a light."

After saying this, Hua Ting went to the booth to meet those bosses. Mr. Qian sat at the bar with his hands clasped tightly. The bartender placed the drink he ordered in front of him. It was a glass of wine as red as blood, exuding charming temptation.

He picked up the wine glass and tasted a little. His throat felt like it was burning, and then it was stinging. He touched his throat and tried to suppress his cough. Behind him, he heard Hua Ting's unique shrill laughter.

When Gu Mingxing heard Hua Ting's laughter, he understood what she meant - money is not an option.

The little rabbit in the fox den was startled by the sudden laughter: "What's wrong with that auntie?"

"Maybe you encountered something happy," Gu Mingxing talked to her like a student who knew nothing: "Just now you said you went hiking not long ago, how long did you climb?"

"Five hours of mountain climbing is really tiring but very rewarding. Do you like mountain climbing?"

"I like the sense of accomplishment. If there is a chance, we can go hiking together."

"Okay," the little rabbit clapped his hands gently: "I heard that..."

Before the little rabbit could finish her words, she was interrupted by her father, Mr. Qian: "Daughter, are you guys having a good chat?"

"Well! Dad, when are we going to climb the mountain next time, can we invite him to go with us?"

Mr. Qian patted her head and said with a smile, "Of course, nephew, when you are free, I will pick you up then."

"Mingxing," Hua Ting came over with a smile: "Let's go back and play at my house for a while."

"Okay," Gu Mingxing said politely to Mr. Qian, "Uncle, I'll leave first. I'll contact you when I have time."

"Okay, okay," Mr. Qian raised the corner of his mouth, but there was no smile in his eyes.

Gu Mingxing sat in the car with the window still open. The wind had already messed up his hairstyle. He closed his eyes and felt the gentleness and coldness of the wind. He liked the feeling of not thinking about anything.

"Ah! It's so annoying!"

He was attracted by the roar, and seeing the relieved look on the man in a white shirt on the street after shouting, a familiar feeling came over him. He remembered Yu Xiaoan's expression when he was teaching him the questions, the expression of relief when he continued to explain the questions to him after being so disappointed in him, until he nodded and said he understood.

"Stop, stop!"

The driver didn't know why his young master suddenly became excited and asked him to stop, but he still braked suddenly and stopped the car.

As soon as the car stopped, Gu Mingxing forcefully unlocked the door and rushed out, rushing in front of the man in the white shirt.

The man in the white shirt was still immersed in the mood of bad performance today, when suddenly a man rushed into his sight. The truth-seeking look in the man's eyes could not be ignored, as if asking "Is it you?"

Facing such a look, and seeing the man who found her again, Yu Xiaoan smiled after seeing him: "How can you find me even here?"

"Yu Xiaoan," Gu Mingxing's bad mood for the whole day disappeared at this moment: "So you are here."

Yu Xiaoan saw the luxury car parked on the side of the road and a driver in a black suit getting out of the driver's seat. He also saw clearly what Gu Mingxing was wearing. Although his hairstyle looked as if it had been blown by a strong wind, it was still possible to tell that it had been trimmed.

"Are you busy with your 'grandfather's' affairs again?"

When the driver heard what the man said, he instantly became nervous and stepped forward to ask, "Excuse me, who are you?"

Polite question, presumptuous tone.

Gu Mingxing glanced at the driver coldly, signaling him not to speak, but the driver still asked, "How do you know that the young master's grandfather was in an accident?"

Yu Xiaoan saw the worry on the driver's face. He was worried about Gu Mingxing. Although she didn't know the relationship between him and Gu Mingxing, in her opinion, such a real worried expression would only appear on the faces of people who were very close. She looked at the driver and said, "I'm his friend. He told me before."

The driver knew he was lying as soon as he heard it, because he was the one who said every time "Grandpa" got into trouble, and every time he went to pick up the young master to deal with the matter in person, so it was impossible for him to have the time or opportunity to contact an ordinary person in society to talk about things about "Grandpa".

The driver stared at her and asked sharply, "You can't possibly know. Who are you?"

Gu Mingxing wanted to scold the driver, but Yu Xiaoan beat him to it. She calmly answered his question: "You should know that he brought his cell phone to school. You also know that cell phones can transmit information. Isn't it obvious how I know this?"

Gu Mingxing still reprimanded the driver: "With this attitude towards my friend, do you want to go back?"

The driver gritted his teeth and bent over to apologize: "Sorry, sir, I won't dare to do it next time."

Yu Xiaoan looked at Gu Mingxing with interest. Gu Mingxing noticed her strange expression and asked, "Why do you look like that?"

"I was surprised to find that you are more capable than I thought."

"That's not a look of surprise on your face."

Yu Xiaoan pretended to cover his mouth in surprise and took a breath: "Wow, it's so amazing!"

The driver looked down upon seeing an adult middle-aged man doing such a gesture, but he discovered that his young master was smiling, because in Gu Mingxing's eyes, he was just Yu Xiaoan. A woman who would cooperate with him according to his teasing was very cute in his eyes.
