After seven years of being a "simp," she's reborn and no longer pursuing the aloof sc

Chapter 101

I glanced around and then got into the car.

"Where to stay?"

Gu Jinhuai's gaze was serious. After pausing for a moment and still not receiving my answer, he continued, "Don't lie to me."

I swallowed the words that were on the tip of my tongue and said, "Pearl Garden."

A while ago, I secretly rented an apartment online. It wasn't too far from the city center. Since I couldn't go to school, I had to work.

"It's too far from the school."

Upon hearing this, Gu Jinhuai frowned deeply, and after a long while, he only uttered this one sentence.

As I listened to his words, a thought arose in my mind. I looked at Gu Jinhuai and asked timidly, "Can I still go to school?"

Gu Jinhuai gave me a deep look, the corners of his lips curving deeper into a serious expression. He said, “Although it’s not possible at foreign universities, I’ve already discussed it with Linda University. For the remaining year, you will go to Beijing Imperial University as an exchange student to complete your studies. It’s just that it will be a bit difficult.”

"This year will be very tiring for you."

Upon hearing Gu Jinhuai's words, I immediately retorted, "I'm not afraid of being tired."

After all this time, I've actually regretted it. I was too impulsive that day and hit someone. I've worked so hard for so long, and I don't want to end up with nothing.

"Okay, just wait patiently."

Gu Jinhuai didn't miss the gleam in my eyes, which was quite intense. He gently patted my head and spoke softly.

"What are your conditions?"

I don't think Gu Jinhuai would really help me unconditionally.

"My condition is to work for Gujia Enterprise after graduation. Don't rush to refute me, I also need to cultivate professional talents."

Gu Jinhuai had deep-set eyes and a serious expression, exuding the aura of someone in a superior position.

He's already showing signs of being a businessman even before he's graduated. I believe that after a few years of experience after graduation, he will definitely become a good businessman and a figure that strikes fear into the hearts of everyone in the capital.

"what happened?"

Noticing that I wasn't speaking, Gu Jinhuai stared at me and asked.

"You've changed."

After a long pause, I stared at him with my clear eyes and said this.

"From the first of next month to June of next year, during this graduation period, you must obtain various professional certificates and internship certificates, and you must receive high praise from every professor in the medical program at Beijing University in order to successfully enter the top medical school in Beijing, understand?"

A year is very short for me, except for summer and winter vacations, only seven months, but this is also my opportunity.

"it is good."

I responded softly.

"Words are no proof; this is a contract."

As Gu Jinhuai spoke, he took out a document from the side. I glanced at it, flipped directly to the last page, and signed my name smoothly.

The time when Gu Zi will fall ill is getting closer and closer. This time, I will race against time and never let the people who love me get hurt.

Are you sure you don't want to take another look?

Seeing how decisive I was, Gu Jinhuai's eyes widened slightly in surprise, and he kindly offered a reminder.

"I believe you."

Aside from being unethical in matters of the heart, Gu Jinhuai is always serious, cautious, and fair in his work. This contract is a kind of encouragement for me.

"Just don't regret it later."

From now on, Gu Jinhuai and I will only have work-related matters to discuss.

However, I still want to thank Gu Jinhuai for my studies. If it weren't for him, I might have regretted it for the rest of my life.

"Thank you for your academic matters. I will work hard after graduation."

I tried my best to distance myself from him.

"it is good."

Gu Jinhuai unconsciously tightened his grip on the steering wheel, his gaze fixed on the documents in my hand, a faint smile flashing across his eyes.

There's still a week until the first of next month. I've spent most of this week at the hospital taking care of Aunt Hui.

Three days later, Aunt Hui was discharged from the hospital and insisted on taking me home. In Lincheng, besides Aunt Hui's family, Su Qi was my only good friend.

I couldn't bear to hide it from them, so I told them about going back to the capital to study. Fu Yiran didn't say anything for a long time, but Su Qi was reluctant to let me go, and the air seemed to freeze.

Aunt Hui smiled and said, "It's a good thing to be able to go to school. I don't know much else, but I've heard that the Imperial University is very good. Graduates from there can find good jobs. You're all studying so hard so that you can find a good job after graduation, right?"

"Since we'll be living far away in the future, I won't be able to visit Aunt Hui as often. I'm really going to miss her."

Aunt Hui held my hand, her eyes slightly red, and her tone was somewhat reluctant.

I dislike this atmosphere of parting the most. I smiled and held Aunt Hui's hand, speaking softly, "Aunt Hui, we live nearby. Once I get my driver's license, it will be very convenient for me to come and see you."

"Yes, transportation is so convenient now, we can take the high-speed rail to visit Nam Gyi."

Su Qi comforted him with red eyes, while Fu Yiran remained silent.

Ever since he found out I married Gu Jinhuai, he's become very quiet and often seems lost in thought. I initially planned to explain, but now I feel it's unnecessary.

He shouldn't have been dragged into this mess by me and suffered with me.

The night before I left, Su Qi insisted on pulling me aside to say a final goodbye.

When I arrived, I discovered that besides me, there was also Fu Yiran. Su Qi loves barbecue, so we found a stall where it was just the three of us.

"Who knows when we'll meet again, Nanzhi? Let's drink until we drop tonight."

I looked at Su Qi's bold and unrestrained demeanor and chuckled softly.

"She has to get up early tomorrow, so you should be careful with your money."

This was the first time Fu Yiran had spoken in a long time.

My gaze slowly fell on him, and he smiled at me with his gentle eyes before turning away.

"No, I can't bear to part with Nanzhi, sob sob sob..."

All night long, Su Qi kept pestering me and drank all night. I tried to stop her many times, but Su Qi was very stubborn. She talked a lot and drank a lot.

I ended up completely drunk, and looked at Fu Yiran with pleading eyes: "Senior Fu, she's going the same way as you, could you please..."

"Okay, what about you? It's not safe for you to go home alone late at night. How about I take you home first?"

Fu Yiran's brows revealed a gentle expression.

"It's alright, I live nearby and want to walk back. I'll leave Su Qi to you."

Fu Yiran and I dragged Su Qi into the car, watched him drive away, let out a heavy sigh, paid the bill, and left.

A gentle night breeze was blowing, and I instinctively pulled my coat tighter around myself. I glanced at the grilled meat skewers; there were still plenty left. It would be a waste not to eat them, so I packed them up and planned to eat them at home.

As soon as I looked up, I saw a straight figure standing across the street. The man was quietly looking at me, and in the dim light, I couldn't see the emotions in his eyes.

And so, we stood silently gazing at each other across the traffic flowing in the middle of the road. I nodded to him to acknowledge him, then picked up my bag and headed home along the roadside.

Soon, Gu Jinhuai's voice rang out from behind.

"Zhou Nanzhi".

Reflexively, I stopped in my tracks, but resisted turning back. In my past life, whenever Gu Jinhuai called my name, I would always appear in front of him immediately.

He licked very skillfully; I was always there whenever he needed me.

But now, I don't want to do that anymore.

After a while, not receiving a reply from the person behind me, I picked up what I was carrying and continued walking forward.

I had only taken a few steps when Gu Jinhuai's voice rang out again. This time, however, the voice was getting closer and closer, and the footsteps were numerous. Soon, my hand was grasped.

"why do you ignore me?"

Gu Jinhuai's lips were pressed into a straight line, and his dark eyes revealed a hint of innocence.

"Yes, I heard it and responded."

My expression was indifferent, but my clear, clean eyes held a hint of loneliness.

"You didn't eat?"

Gu Jinhuai was not satisfied with my answer, but he did not dwell on the matter, because he now knew that a heart filled with love would become empty, and it would take time to fill it again.

"Go back and eat."

I responded calmly.

"What a coincidence, I haven't eaten either, let's eat together."

Gu Jinhuai took the bag from my hand, turned his head, and asked again, "Want to drink?"

In the dim light, the man's outline gradually blurred, and his once clear features became indistinct under the light, but his eyes shone brightly, radiating a light that pierced my heart.

"You pay."

I hesitated for a few seconds before replying.

"it is good."

The man's smile was gentle, and his clear eyes were free of any impurities, just like a naive and innocent high school boy. The heart-fluttering feeling of a boy is enduring and never fades. My heart still rippled with emotion, especially when he looked at me with a smile. I'll probably remember that expression for a lifetime.
