n
nGu Qingchen lowered her eyes and began to ponder.
n
nIt seemed that Liu Ying had gone to look for Shi Tian. Shi Tian must have learned from Liu Ying that the missing account book was in Gu Qingchen’s hands.
n
nThat was why when she came to school today, Shi Wei did not play her usual dirty tricks.
n
nAfter all, she suspected that Gu Qingchen had something that could be used against her family. If she angered Gu Qingchen, it would not benefit her family.
n
nHowever, Gu Qingchen felt that she did not have many peaceful days left.
n
nWith Shi Tian’s character, he definitely would start to make a move.
n
nIt seemed that she had to pay more attention.
n
n“Qingchen, have you thought about what special skill you want to use to enter Hongfeng? I have paid some attention to it. Next weekend, Hongfeng will start accepting people.”
n
nHan Zhengxiu saw Gu Qingchen and asked softly.
n
nNext week?
n
nGu Qingchen was a little surprised. She had thought that it would take a long time, but she did not expect it to start next weekend.
n
nHongfeng Elite School would recruit high-quality students with special talents. Perhaps their specialized courses were not the best, but they were outstanding talents in other areas.
n
nGu Qingchen rested her chin on one hand, the expression in her eyes was a little empty.
n
nWhat was her special skill?
n
nDid mind-reading count?
n
nOf course not. The number of times she could read minds every day was limited. Moreover, her mind-reading ability could not be known by others. If others knew, they might arrest her and send her to the research institute as a research subject.
n
nThinking of the research institute…
n
nGu Qingchen was slightly startled, and her thoughts were also in a mess. That was a place that she did not want to go to for the second time in her life.
n
nIf mind-reading could not be counted, could her photographic memory and ability to accept things quickly be counted as a talent?
n
nHowever, the students who could go to the Hongfeng Elite School seemed to have very good grades. These two points did not seem to be special in Hongfeng.
n
nIf these were not possible, what should she do?
n
nShe could not tell others that she knew divination, right.
n
nAlthough she didn’t know anything about divination, she was still a person who had lived once. She knew about some important events.
n
nMaybe she would be regarded as a prophet.
n
nNo, that wasn’t reliable. Divination also needed time to prove. She couldn’t let the future happen immediately. How could the teacher who interviewed her be sure that what she said wasn’t false?
n
nSigh, it was a little worrisome.
n
nHan Zhengxiu looked at Gu Qingchen’s changing expression and guessed that Gu Qingchen was worried about her talent.
n
n“Why don’t you think about what you are most interested in and if you have the talent in that area?”
n
nHe still hoped that Gu Qingchen could take the Hongfeng examination with him. He was very clear about his talent. In terms of eloquence, he might not lose to others.
n
nGu Qingchen frowned slightly. After thinking for a long time, she still could not figure out what talent to use.
n
nThese talents of hers were all shameful, okay.
n
nHan Zhengxiu looked a little anxious. In the end, after holding it in for a long time, he said, “Why don’t you compete with others in beauty? Being beautiful is also a kind of talent!”
n
nPfft!
n
nGu Qingchen immediately spat out when she heard Han Zhengxiu’s words.
n
nHan Zhengxiu was also a little embarrassed. He averted his eyes, and his ears were a little red. In the end, he said in a low voice, “Anyway, we can try. It doesn’t cost anything to try.”
n
nGu Qingchen stared at Han Zhengxiu for a long time before she burst into laughter. Her laughter was very happy and was not pretentious at all. She looked very cheerful and could infect others.
n
nWhen Han Zhengxiu saw Gu Qingchen’s smile, his heart skipped a beat and his breathing tightened. He felt that the current Gu Qingchen was astonishingly beautiful. That kind of gentle and cheerful charm that blended into one was unforgettable to him for the rest of his life.
n
nMany years later, Han Zhengxiu recalled the past and was still moved by Gu Qingchen’s smile.
n
nWhen one was young and frivolous, one’s emotions would stir!
n
nSometimes, it was just a matter in a moment.
n
nThe throbbing of one’s heart during puberty was young and sweet, ignorant and beautiful.
n
nEverything was that simple. Falling in love with someone was just a matter of a moment.
n
nIn the end, Gu Qingchen did not think about what talent she wanted to use, but she promised Han Zhengxiu that she would definitely participate.
n
nWhen she returned home, Gu Qingchen realized that her father’s expression did not look good. However, when he saw his daughter return, he forced himself to be more energetic.
n
n“Dad, what happened to you? Did you encounter any problems?”
n
nEven without reading his mind, Gu Qingchen could tell that Gu Yuanchuan was not in a good mood today.
n
nGu Yuanchuan opened his mouth and swallowed his words. In the end, it was Mrs. Gu who spoke up, “Don’t mention it. Your father originally thought that he was more familiar with the timber business and wanted to use your five million to start over, but who knew that your father’s former business partners seemed to have communicated with one another. Even if your father had the money now, they wouldn’t be willing to cooperate with your father.”
n
nGu Yuanchuan was also very sullen. Usually, he treated these people very well and with sincerity. He didn’t expect that they would treat him like this now.
n
nIn the end, Gu Yuanchuan was a conservative person. Even if he was a businessman who ventured into business, he had not learned the ability to abandon morality for profit, see the wind, and set the helm.
n
nGu Yuanchuan believed that when doing business, one should be honest, and everyone should be kind to one another in order to make money.
n
nHe did not expect that his years of honesty would bring him the merciless abandonment of his past business partners.
n
nMore or less, Gu Yuanchuan felt a little disheartened and upset.
n
n“Dad, in my opinion, although you are familiar with the timber business, it will be a little difficult for you to expand it. Why don’t you change your business while you are still young? The most important thing is to seize the business opportunity. I see that this jade business has a lot of potential and I know some people in this field. Why don’t you consider it?”
n
nGu Qingchen could roughly guess why her father was always bumping into walls. Needless to say, it must have something to do with Shi Tian.
n
nHer father was pure and honest, so he definitely did not think about it. His current situation was very likely that someone was deliberately trying to trip him up.
n
nSince her father did not think about it, she did not want to expose it. It was also good to change the business and get in touch with some people again.
n
nAs for those people in the past, it was fine to stop contacting them.
n
nIt was not worth befriending such people who stepped down on others.
n
nGu Yuanchuan thought for a moment and felt that what his daughter said made sense. Perhaps he could give it a try.
n
nMrs. Gu also tried to persuade him, “Yes, this timber business must have been snatched away by Shi Tian. If you want to do it again, it is indeed very difficult. Why don’t you listen to your daughter? From now on, we will do the jade business.”
n
nMrs. Gu was a more understanding person. As soon as she spoke, she hit the nail on the head.
n
nGu Yuanchuan nodded and swept away his previous frustration. “Okay, let’s try it.”
n
nGu Qingchen smiled. The three of them made this decision and ate happily.
n
nHow could they let Shi Tian and those ungrateful people off so easily?
n
nHehe, of course not. Gu Qingchen had her own plans.
n
nIn the next few days, Gu Qingchen brought her father to the stone gambling venue and introduced Zhou Xiang to her father. After the previous contact, Zhou Xiang and Gu Qingchen were very familiar with each other.
n
nWhen he learned that Gu Qingchen’s father was interested in the jade business, Zhou Xiang did not exclude him. He enthusiastically taught Gu Yuanchuan about jade.
n
nIn the blink of an eye, it was the day before Hongfeng Elite School’s special enrollment.
