Senior, don't be afraid, I'll protect you.

After the Lantern Festival.

My first winter break from university is also coming to an end.

Soon, the second semester of freshman year will begin.

Luo Ye arrived at the airport entrance, and this time, it was someone else's turn to see him off.

Aunt, Uncle, and a tearful Ouyang Mingyue were all looking at them expectantly.

Luo Ye, Gu Mingxuan, and the blonde foreign beauty Judy, carrying their respective suitcases, prepared to head to Jiangcheng.

Although Luo Ye was planning to go to Hangzhou to find his senior, before that, he needed to take Dr. Judy to Jiangcheng Medical University to see Shen Qiao and Xiao Lei.

Gu Mingxuan, a teacher at Jiang University, also needed to arrive at the school a few days in advance to handle some matters. Before leaving the country, he needed to arrange some official school affairs and also wish Professor Li Ping a belated Happy New Year.

As for Tang Enqi and Xu Xiaojia, they will be going to Jiangcheng in a couple of days, so they did not come along this time.

Watching the three figures disappear through the security checkpoint, Ouyang Mingyue's face was covered in tears, her eyes filled with reluctance.

Fortunately, she already had Luo Ye and Su Baizhou's contact information, so she could send them messages or video chat whenever she missed them.

For the first time, Chen Shaoman's eyes revealed a look of heartache for Gu Mingxuan.

"Old Gu, isn't Mingxuan working a little too hard?"

Hearing this, Gu Rancheng said helplessly, "Living in a family like ours, and being an only child, there are some things that are not up to us or him to choose. We can't just hand over such a big company to someone else."

"The Lei family has proposed marriage to us for the third time. If Mingxuan still can't find a girlfriend, we have no reason to refuse. Once we agree, Mingxuan will have to spend his marriage and the rest of his life working."

Chen Shaoman leaned weakly against Gu Rancheng.

In fact, Luo Ye could share the burden with Gu Mingxuan. As long as Luo Ye holds a portion of the company's shares, then Luo Ye could also be the person he marries.

However, in order to ensure her sister's child could live a carefree life, Chen Shaoman prevented him from interfering in any company matters and from being troubled by those issues.

As a result, Gu Mingxuan shouldered everything in the next generation.

Of course, they could refuse the marriage alliance, but the situation among large companies has changed. With the rise of the e-sports industry, some e-sports games have begun to squeeze the market.

If they don't cooperate with other large companies, it will be difficult for them to survive in the future.

The condition for the Lei family to cooperate with them was a marriage alliance. After all, Gu Mingxuan was so outstanding, and he was not even thirty years old, plus he was single... They couldn't find a reason to refuse.

After all, mergers between large companies cannot be dismissed with excuses like "I don't want to" or "I don't like it."

Unless Gu Mingxuan already has a girlfriend, the Lei family will not lower this condition.

"Old Gu."

Chen Shaoman said in a deep voice, "You and I both know that with the rise of the two mainstream e-sports games, 5v5 e-sports and battle royale e-sports, coupled with the popularization of mobile games, the golden age of e-sports... may be about to begin, and we have already fallen behind."

"Ugh."

Gu Rancheng also sighed and said, "You never know what the future holds."

Ouyang Mingyue stared wide-eyed, completely unable to understand.

However, upon hearing the words "e-sports," Ouyang Mingyue seemed to recall something and said, "Uncle and Aunt, Brother Mingxuan is very impressive. He is the largest shareholder of Dynasty E-sports. I overheard him talking to someone on the phone when I was doing my homework last time."

Upon hearing this, Gu Rancheng and Chen Shaoman exchanged a glance, then simply smiled and remained silent.

After all, I've never even heard of Royal Dynasty Esports. It's probably just a childish game that Gu Mingxuan plays when he's away from home. It's an insignificant little company.

"However, Mingyue is right. Mingxuan is very talented. Although the company is declining now, I believe that with Mingxuan's abilities, he will definitely have a place in the future e-sports boom."

Chen Shaoman murmured.

……

Jiangcheng.

Not long after getting off the plane, Gu Mingxuan saw a familiar figure appear not far away. His expression changed drastically, and he quickly hid behind Luo Ye.

Luo Ye looked over in confusion and exclaimed in surprise, "It's Teacher Li Na!"

Li Na, wearing high heels, walked over with a confident and stylish air.

Because they were both blonde, she immediately noticed the foreign beauty next to Gu Mingxuan.

However, she didn't care and said angrily, "Well, Gu Mingxuan, you've been hiding from me for half a year, and you've finally decided to show your face?"

Upon hearing this, Judy stepped forward and asked without backing down, "Mr. Gu, who is this?"

"and who are you?"

"I am Mr. Gu's friend."

"Aren't we all friends? Why are you blonde? Are you copying me?"

"I was born that way."

Watching the two women talking back and forth, Luo Ye was caught in the middle, looking quite troubled.

My cousin is truly an outstanding talent; he's so sought after!

The two women started arguing. Of course, the foreigner couldn't win the argument against Li Na, who was also an English teacher and spoke fluent English. She even used Judy's native language, leaving Judy speechless and almost in tears.

Li Na, displaying a victor's posture, stood in front of Luo Ye and said sternly, "Luo Ye, get out of the way."

"no problem."

Luo Ye took a big step, revealing Gu Mingxuan behind him.

"My dad asked me to pick you up at the airport."

Upon hearing this, Gu Mingxuan glanced at Luo Ye and said, "I have to accompany my cousin to the hospital first before I go to school."

"Going to the hospital? What's wrong? Are you sick?"

"No, I was taking Dr. Judy to the hospital to see a patient," Gu Mingxuan explained.

"You can let Luo Ye take care of it. You come home with me first."

Upon hearing this, Gu Mingxuan's expression changed, and he said without hesitation, "No, Judy came to China with me, and I have an obligation to accompany her."

“Okay, I’ll go too. My dad told me to pick you up. I’ll get scolded if I don’t. I have an obligation to do so.”

Upon hearing this, Gu Mingxuan looked at Luo Ye for help.

The latter's lips twitched, and he said helplessly, "Then... then let's go together."

Luo Ye was speechless.

What a chaotic scene!

After hailing a taxi at the airport, Gu Mingxuan acted swiftly and sat directly in the passenger seat.

Luo Ye sat in the middle of the back seat, with the women on either side staring at each other across the distance. The air seemed to be filled with the tension of gunpowder.

Luo Ye gazed intently at Gu Mingxuan ahead, sensing the tense atmosphere of battle on both sides, and couldn't help but sigh:

You're such a troublemaker when it comes to your brother.

The car stopped in front of the hospital, and Judy and Lina were still arguing with their eyes, unable to stand each other.

However, Judy is an internationally renowned doctor, so as soon as she got out of the car, someone came to greet her.

"Are you Dr. Judy?" a nurse asked.

"it's me."

"Please come with me, Dr. Tan has been waiting for a long time."

"Ok."

Judy followed the nurse into the hospital.

Luo Ye and the other two followed.
