32 Genius Gu is my cousin
“You study in this school?” Gu Shangyan asked the most obvious question. ” Why didn’t you tell me?”
“You didn’t tell me you study in this school too,” An Xiulan grumbled. They talked a lot yesterday but he didn’t mention that both of them study in the same school. Then again, even she forgot to tell him the same.
“Fine. Fine. What are you having?” Gu Shangyan asked as he looked at her plate filled with dishes and rice. He grabbed a bottle of water from frozen Qiao Wei and washed the disposable chopsticks that he took from Xiulan’s hand and began eating the food. Obviously from An Xiulan’s place.
An Xiulan didn’t find anything wrong with his behaviour as they ate a lot from each other’s plates that day. Wasn’t it natural?
Yes, it was natural to her but not to her classmates who seemed to have their jaws fallen on the ground and their eyeballs seemed to have widened.
“Xiao Lan, how do you know Genius Gu?” Mona asked once she came out of her mega shock.
“He is a genius?” An Xiulan asked with a weird look on her face.
All of them nodded.
An Xiulan glanced at Ou Shangyan who was eating at a frightening speed and puckered her nose as if she had just eaten it and smelled something bad.
“Doesn’t look like one,” An Xiulan muttered. “He doesn’t even walk his talk.”
If he was really a genius, shouldn’t he have completed his words? He had promised that he would buy her crayfish if he won the race. She won the race after sheer hard work and overcoming great difficulties but in the end, he refused to buy her crayfish.
Sob. Sob. She was so wronged by this boy.
“He is really a genius.” Song Ci murmured.
“Crayfish?” An Xiulan glanced at him and called out his name in a serious voice.
“Yes, crybaby?” Gu Shangyan looked up at her while chewing on food.
“Are you a genius?” An Xiulan raised the question.
“No!” How could he be a genius? The real genius was Han Nanxian who would always top the result. He was the only person who couldn’t surpass the first rank. He was the ever second ranker.
“Oh.”
An Xiulan gave her friends a gaze that said you all are wrong. Behind them, the other guys didn’t know what to do with both of them.
Sometimes they wondered if there was an end to An Xiulan’s stupidity and naivety.
“Mr Gu?” Mona asked in a soft and careful voice.
“Hmm?” Gu Shangyan hummed in reply while chewing. ρꪖꪕᦔꪖꪕꪫꪣꫀꪶ
“How do you know our Class’s An Xiulan?” Mona asked, saving everyone trouble to ask the same question.
“She is my cousin,” Gu Shangyan naturally replied.
“Am I?” An Xiulan blinked her big doe eyes at him.
Gu Shangyan nodded his head. Even if he wasn’t her cousin at this moment, they would be soon.
An Xiulan looked at all of them and introduced them. “Guys, meet my cousin, Gu Shangyan.”
“Hello, Crybaby’s friends, I’m Gu Shangyan. You can look for me if you need anything,” His introduction was short but firm. He didn’t like talking much and so he just made a small introduction.
Song Ci whispered into Qiao Wei’s ear, “Didn’t they say Genius Gu is a block of ice? I had heard other students saying that he is even more indifferent than Song Xueyun. But why doesn’t he look like a cold person to me? Do you think all those rumours are false?”
“Maybe,” Qiao Wei mumbled. She could see that Gu Shangyan and An Xiulan were close to each other.
“Mr Gu, you and Xiao Lan grew up together?” Demo asked with a smile. Even though he hated studious students, in front of a genius like
Gu Shangyan, he couldn’t help but want to flatter him more. After all, he needed to copy mathematics notes. And who could be a better option than Genius Gu?
“No, she has spent her life in America,” Gu Shangyan replied much to their shock. “She just came to China a week ago.”
“What?!!”
All of them had a look of shock written on their faces.
“Xiao Lan, you are from America?” Qiao Wei asked with stars in her eyes, “That’s why you know English better than everyone?”
An Xiulan nodded.
“Crybaby, don’t forget to pack more lunch for me tomorrow, ” Gu Shangyan said as he grabbed a juice bottle from her lap. He grabbed her phone and seeing that it doesn’t have a password, he snickered inwardly. He called his number from her phone and saved her number.
“Crybaby, if you run into a problem, give me a call. I will help you with everything in school.”
Gu Shangyan had connections in the school. Of course, he would do everything in his power to make her stay in school as much as possible.
An Xiulan smiled brightly and waved him goodbye. She quickly saved his number. She must take advantage of every opportunity she gets.
‘Hihihi.’ An Xiulan’s smile was creepy.
“An Xiulan, you are amazing. Your cousin is Gu Shangyan.”
Later An Xiulan enjoyed getting flattered by her classmates for having such an amazing cousin. While she was getting flattered, she failed to notice dark expressions on a certain someone’s face.
