Gu Zi Chen suddenly felt a pang of sadness.
Perhaps in the eyes of many people, he is a proud son of heaven, he is the only son of Gu Yanzhun, and the wealth and halo he possesses will not be less than anyone else.
But what he lost is also immeasurable.
His father had disliked him since he was a child, thinking that he was the only stain in his life. As for Ye Siyun, she didn't even need to be mentioned, regarding him as a thorn in her eye and a stab in her flesh. Although Old Master Gu nominally took him back into the Gu household, in his heart, he had never acknowledged him.
Living alone since I was seven years old, year after year, month after month, day and night, facing an empty home by myself.
Until I met Su Nian Nian.
At first, he disliked Su Niannian. Subconsciously, he was considering it from Chen Yuan's perspective. The daughter brought by his stepmother, of course, would also be very much disliked.
It was just slowly, he understood, it was just his heart demon haunting him.
Not every stepmother in this world is like Ye Siyun, and Su Nianian is not the vicious female supporting character in a fairy tale.
She is simple and silly, sometimes even foolish, which makes him feel annoyed and disgusted.
But it was also her who made him feel warmth and concern, making him feel for the first time that his heart had become incredibly soft.
The night breeze was cool and refreshing, the starlight twinkled brightly, he stood there for a while in a daze before returning home.
When changing clothes, Gu Zichen felt a sharp pain on his back. He frowned and observed in the mirror that there was a clear scar on his back, swollen into a piece of redness, with several pieces of broken skin, and even bloodstains stained on his clothes.
He tried to apply ointment on his back, made several attempts but couldn't reach, so he simply threw the medicine box away and took a shower before going to sleep.
Anyway, whether he is ill or dead, no one will care.
——
The next day, Seiō High School.
The whole school is preparing for the sports meeting, bustling and extraordinary. All kinds of banners and posters are posted, and students have also changed into sportswear.
Su Year wore a white short-sleeved shirt with a grey-blue baseball jacket over it, and as soon as he arrived at school, he was called to the playground by Ajie from the propaganda department.
"Tomorrow and the day after tomorrow are the school sports meeting, everyone must be in high spirits and do a good job of emergency work. In the morning there are individual events, in the afternoon is the basketball game, everyone is responsible for going to each class to notify and organize the cheerleading team." Gu Zichen said briefly, the propaganda department took orders and dispersed to take action.
Su Nian wanted to follow along, but A Jie stopped her with a worried expression: "Nian Nian, there's a problem with that poster you drew..."
"What's wrong?" Su Nian asked.
"Last night there was a shower of rain, and it just so happened that the bulletin board you were in charge of didn't have its cover on, so all the writing got washed away."
Su Nian has been depressed for a year, last time there was a problem she was bullied by Luo Jia Yi, let's just say it was a human disaster, now even the heavens are not letting her off, this is simply a natural disaster.
Helpless, she took the tools and went over to redo it. Gu Zhichen finished handing over other matters and followed her as well.
Su Nian wiped away the remaining blackboard and started drawing again. Gu Zi Chen tacitly picked up a piece of chalk, ready to write on the board.
The two of them were perfectly in sync, but their conversation was interrupted by Director Lü who happened to be passing by.
She adjusted her glasses and said sternly: "What's going on with you two? The school has clearly prohibited dating, yet you two are still wearing couple outfits!"
Su Xian looked around in a daze, only to find that there was no one else around. It seemed that she and Gu Zichen were the only ones left...
