Chapter 53: Like Old Friends at First Sight
After a long while, Yan Xiaoju met Gu Qingchen’s clear eyes and nodded her head firmly. She spoke said, “Yes, it was great!”
For some reason, after Yan Xiaoju said this, Gu Qingchen and she had an indescribable feeling of affinity. The two of them looked at each other and smiled. An invisible feeling flowed between the two of them.
Yan Xiaoju never knew that one day, she would meet a friendly stranger, and they would hit it off so well when they first met.
Gu Qingchen’s kick was Yan Xiaoju’s biggest wish in all these years. Unfortunately, she was forced to be helpless and did not dare to kick him out.
And today, Gu Qingchen kicked Yan Jiaoyue away, completely fulfilling her wish.!!
The surrounding students were only there to watch the show. They all knew clearly that both Gu Qingchen and Yan Xiaoju had gotten into trouble. Fighting at the entrance of Hongfeng Elite School, their heads must have squeezed by the door.
The crowd dispersed. No one went to help Yan Jiaoyue. No one wanted to cause trouble, because there was no need to take the risk for a stranger.
“My name is Yan Xiaoju. What’s yours?” Yan Xiaoju said generously.
“Gu Qingchen.”
Gu Qingchen smiled and said without looking down on Yan Xiaoju. Yan Xiaoju knew that she looked very embarrassed, but Gu Qingchen did not look down on her at all. This comforted Yan Xiaoju a lot.
Han Zhengxiu looked at the two of them and then said to Yan Xiaoju in a friendly manner, “My name is Han Zhengxiu. I’m Gu Qingchen’s deskmate. Hello.”
Han Zhengxiu took the initiative to extend his hand. Yan Xiaoju was only stunned for a moment before she shook hands with Han Zhengxiu. She did not look petty at all.
“Nice to meet you! Are you here for the interview as well?”
Yan Xiaoju took the initiative to talk. The three of them did not feel awkward and the conversation was very comfortable.
Han Zhengxiu was a little curious. He thought that Gu Qingchen knew Yan Xiaoju and that was why she lent a helping hand. Now it seemed that the two of them did not know each other.
This was a little strange. When did Gu Qingchen become so enthusiastic?
“Yes, we are also here for the interview. By the way, do you still want to care about the one lying there?”
Han Zhengxiu pointed at Yan Jiaoyue who was still lying there and reminded Yan Xiaoju.
Gu Qingchen and Yan Xiaoju both looked at Yan Jiaoyue and then shook their heads tacitly.
“Serves you right.”
“Serves you right.”
The two of them smiled at each other and left together, no longer looking at Yan Jiaoyue.
The miserable Yan Jiaoyue lied there in a sorry state. No one cared about her. She immediately felt wronged and burst into tears. Unfortunately, no one paid attention to her.
Han Zhengxiu walked over and looked down at Yan Jiaoyue. When Yan Jiaoyue saw that someone was coming, she immediately had a good impression of Han Zhengxiu.
Seeing that Han Zhengxiu was also very handsome, she felt a little shy.
The handsome man must have seen that she was being bullied, so he came over to help her.
But who knew… reality and imagination always went against each other.
Han Zhengxiu looked at Yan Jiaoyue and then said, “Well, at least you’re not dead.”
Then he turned around and left, with no intention of pulling Yan Jiaoyue.
Yan Jiaoyue was full of hope, but she was crushed by Han Zhengxiu.
Gu Qingchen, Han Zhengxiu, and Yan Xiaoju entered the main gate of Hongfeng School. Hongfeng School was indeed a noble school. Even the main gate was so exquisite.
The main gate had a grand look. Those who did not know would think that it was the main gate of a palace. It looked high-profile, but it was very simple and looked majestic.
At the same time, there was also a feeling of being cut off from the world.
After entering the gate, there was no teacher to receive them. There were only two students. There was a sign stated “receptionist” hanging around their necks. When they saw the students who had come in for the interview, they gave each of them a document bag.
The document bag was sealed and had not been opened before.
“You can open the document bag. There are things that you need to do next. Please follow the instructions inside and go for the interview.”
The receptionist did not say anything more. She only said the main point and ignored the students who were interviewing.
Gu Qingchen and the other two took out a document bag and opened it. There was a piece of paper inside. On the paper, there was a very simple description of where they needed to go for the interview.
“Bo Ya Building’s multimedia hall? What is that place?”
Han Zhengxiu read out his location. Gu Qingchen looked at her own paper. On it was the Bo Wen Building’s history hall.
Obviously, the two of them were not in the same place.
And Yan Xiaoju was also in a different place.
“Let’s find it ourselves. There should be a road sign.”
It had to be said that some of Hongfeng’s practices were really different from other schools.
Other schools allowed parents to accompany them. There would be many teachers who were responsible for receiving them. They would not let the students find a teaching building that they had never heard of in an unfamiliar environment.
All of these practices were sending a message. Hongfeng Elite School required the students to be independent, have their own opinions, and emphasize personal ability.
In the past, Gu Qingchen did not have much of a concept of Hongfeng. Now, she already had a good impression of Hongfeng through this interview. It was no wonder that such a school would produce so many talents.
One had to know that the students who left Hongfeng were all elites.
No matter what field they were in, Hongfeng’s students would always be much more outstanding than the others.
“It seems that we will have to leave separately. Can the two of you do it?”
Han Zhengxiu quickly understood Hongfeng’s intentions. He did not flaunt his gentlemanly demeanor at this time and reported that he was brave enough to send Gu Qingchen and Yan Xiaoju off.
Gu Qingchen and Yan Xiaoju both shook their heads. Gu Qingchen glanced at Han Zhengxiu and Yan Xiaoju and said with a smile, “I hope that we will be the alumnus of this school in the future.”
“Yes, I will work hard!”
The light in Yan Xiaoju’s eyes was something Gu Qingchen had never seen before.
After finding the road sign, the three of them parted ways and went to find their respective interview locations.
Gu Qingchen was at Bo Wen Building. She was not in a hurry and walked over slowly.
However, her mind was filled with memories of Yan Xiaoju.
She knew Yan Xiaoju, but Yan Xiaoju did not know her.
The reason was simple. The Yan Xiaoju she knew was the Yan Xiaoju many years later. At that time, the two of them met when they were drug test subjects.
There was once when Gu Qingchen was not in good condition that day and the side effects of the drug at that time were greater. The researchers did not care whether the drug test subject was comfortable or not. Naturally, they did not stop the test just because Gu Qingchen was not feeling well.
At that time, among so many people, it was Yan Xiaoju who stood out and volunteered to replace Gu Qingchen.
Later on, the two of them became good friends.
The two of them talked about many things about themselves. When Gu Qingchen met Yan Xiaoju here, these memories surged up to her mind.
Yan Xiaoju had told her before that the thing she regretted the most in her life was not being able to attend the interview at Hongfeng that year. In the end, she ended up becoming a drug test subject.
When Gu Qingchen saw Yan Xiaoju, her heart was beating violently. There was a crazy idea in her mind. She wanted to change Yan Xiaoju’s fate.
If she could change her own fate, why couldn’t she change Yan Xiaoju’s?
