Ruan Xueling’s gaze swept over Gu Jin and Gu Pei before settling on Xiao Yize. She was momentarily stunned by the young man’s face, feeling a sense of familiarity, though she couldn’t quite place him. “Jin, who is this?”
After Xiao Yize parked the car, he stood to the side, waiting for someone to acknowledge him.
Taking the initiative, he stepped forward, speaking humbly and gently to Gu Zhaoming and Ruan Xueling. “Hello, Chairman Gu, Madam Gu. I’m Xiao Yize, a friend of Miss Gu Jin. I’m currently serving as the temporary vice-principal of No.1 Middle School and teaching physics for Class One.”
Gu Zhaoming regarded the refined and handsome young man with a deep gaze, nodding. “Hello.”
He remembered Xiao Yize. He had served as the vice-principal of No.1 Middle School the previous year and was rumored to be a friend of Young Master Lin from the capital. His background was shrouded in mystery.
While many speculated that he was simply a wealthy young man from the capital, supported by the Lin family, Gu Zhaoming sensed there was more to him. One’s true identity could be concealed, but the inherent nobility exuded by Xiao Yize seemed innate.
However, Gu Zhaoming didn’t expect Xiao Yize to refer to himself as a junior, despite belonging to the same professional category.
Suddenly recalling seeing Xiao Yize during the hundred-day oath, Ruan Xueling said, “So you’re Jin’s teacher. Thank you for bringing them back safely. You’ve been very kind. Come in and have a cup of tea.”
Xiao Yize smiled gently. “That’s unnecessary. It’s just what friends do. However, there are a few matters I need to discuss with you, Uncle and Auntie, so I may need to trouble you for a while.”
“Of course, please come in.” Ruan Xueling, who was fond of good-looking and obedient juniors, was impressed by Xiao Yize’s handsome appearance and polite demeanor.
Gu Jin couldn’t help but glance at Xiao Yize again. She hadn’t realized he could be so shameless at times.
Just a moment ago, he had addressed them as Chairman Gu and Madam Gu, but now he was calling them “uncle and auntie.”
He apologized and mentioned he didn’t mean to disturb them, but his tone lacked sincerity.
Gu Yang blinked, wondering if her elder sister and Xiao Yize were meeting their parents.
Feng Jue took advantage of the darkness to subtly hold her hand.
In the living room, Ruan Xueling called out to Gu Jin, “Jin, please serve some tea to your friend.”
Gu Jin poured a cup of tea for Xiao Yize with a neutral expression.
Xiao Yize smiled gratefully. “Thank you, Jin.”
Gu Jin’s eyelids twitched, almost causing her to spill the tea.
Ruan Xueling and Gu Zhaoming seldom inquired about their children’s school experiences. With a teacher present, they took the opportunity to engage in conversation.
Gu Yang and Feng Jue obediently sat together on the long sofa.
Just then, after showering and changing clothes, Gu Pei casually came downstairs and squeezed in between the two of them.
Feng Jue’s gaze towards Gu Pei grew colder.
Yet Gu Pei leaned towards Gu Yang, irritation etching his voice, “Sister, I swear I’m about to lose it.”
“What happened? Why do you look so battered after a breakup?”
Gu Yang furrowed her brow at Gu Pei’s swollen lips. She instructed the nanny to fetch the first aid kit and gently tended to his injuries.
Gu Pei bowed his head in appreciation, deeply moved. His sister truly was the kindest fairy!
“Jin, Pei, why are you back so late tonight? And did Mr. Xiao really escort you both back?” Ruan Xueling was also perplexed. The two siblings had always been at odds, often squabbling whenever they met. It was rare to see them together.
Gu Pei was taken aback. How did Vice Principal Xiao suddenly become just “Xiao”?
