Moments later, Shi Xuexin recognized who it was. It was Gu Jingyuan!
Both she and Shi Jin were five years younger than Gu Jingyuan.
When she was young, she stayed with Gu Jingyuan for two years, but not long after, Gu Jingyuan had gone overseas to study.
It was probably because the quality of teaching abroad was better.
Li Juekai and Gu Qingqing must have taken him away.
At that time, Shi Xuexin had felt a vague sense of discomfort.
The Li family had three children. Gu Jingyuan and Gu Zehan were boys, so they had a chance to study with their parents, but as a girl, she could only live with her grandfather in his hometown.
In the small town, it was not uncommon for people to favor boys over girls, and they would occasionally hear others mention it.
Shi Xuexin felt that she was a peripheral figure in the family.
Over time, she hated everyone, including Gu Jingyuan.
After returning to the Shi family, the Shi family treated her wholeheartedly. Only then did she realize that the difference in quality between families was too great.
"Why is he here?" Shi Xuexin thought to herself.
She had had very little contact with Gu Jingyuan and did not understand his movements.
Especially after she returned to the Shi family, she had been very afraid that these messy people from the Li family would come looking for her and cause trouble for her. Hence, she had broken off contact with them on the grounds that her studies were too important.
Come to think of it, Gu Jingyuan was really born with good looks. His eyebrows were straight, and he was tall and had long legs. Not to mention the middle school students from Second High School, who had been working hard all year round could not catch up to him, there was probably no one in the entirety of Beijing University who could compare to him.
Because of this thought, Shi Xuexin did not mind restoring contact with Gu Jingyuan.
She was about to call Gu Jingyuan when she saw him walking towards a car with his car keys. The car was from an unknown brand. There was no logo on it. Although it was clean, it looked shabby.
At that thought, Shi Xuexin hurriedly turned her body to avoid being seen by Gu Jingyuan.
Ji Huan asked, "Xuexin, what's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"
"Nothing." Shi Xuexin paused for a moment. "I thought I had forgotten my phone in my office just now, but it's here."
She pulled her phone out of her bag.
As she spoke, Gu Jingyuan got into the car and lowered the car window.
Ji Huan smiled and said, "That's good. We're almost at the carpark. Let's go."
In the carpark, the Shi family's Rolls-Royce was parked neatly. The chauffeur was quietly waiting for Shi Xuexin.
Shi Xuexin quickly got into the car and said goodbye to Ji Huan. Then, she hurriedly closed the car window and said to the chauffeur, "Let's go quickly. I'm in a hurry."
Seeing that she was in a hurry, Ji Huan thought that she was busy with something and did not take it to heart.
Sitting in another car, Gu Jingyuan raised his eyebrows slightly.
Shi Xuexin thought her actions were subtle, but he had seen everything. He had been waiting for Shi Jin and had gotten into the car because he had seen Shi Xuexin.
Previously, Gu Qingqing had vaguely said that this lady was quite thoughtful and lively. If she was on good terms with Shi Jin, the Li family might as well help her.
Gu Jingyuan understood what she meant.
If possible, he could lend her a hand. Still, he should not interact too much with her.
Gu Jingyuan recalled the time he had gone to look for Shi Xuexin and had given her a gift. She had looked happy on the surface, but a trace of hidden disdain involuntarily surfaced.
