BXBX NOVEL Chapter 658: An Extraordinary Person
Upon hearing these words, Gu Zi reflected for a moment. Besides the First Bilingual Primary School, there didn’t seem to be any other schools nearby. She said, “They just transferred to the First Bilingual Primary School.”
The old lady’s face lit up with joy upon hearing this. It was indeed the same school, what a coincidence, what fate. Her gaze at Gu Zi was filled with even more admiration.
She was amazed that this young girl, not only could afford to live here, but also managed to send her two children to the First Bilingual Language School. She was indeed an extraordinary individual. Her tone became much friendlier.
“What a coincidence indeed. Now the three children are not only neighbors but also schoolmates. Imagine how wonderful it would be if Su Li and my grandson Gao Ming were in the same class? We could have the family driver take them to and from school together. That’s the advantage of being neighbors.
“I think this is what we should do. Once school starts, I’ll inquire with the school leaders about which class your Su Li is in. I’ll make sure my Gao Ming is in the same class. That will settle everything!”
The more the old lady spoke, the happier she became. By the end, she was all smiles, exuding an aura of nobility. Gu Zi refilled her tea, raising an eyebrow at the old lady’s casual suggestion.
This was the First Bilingual Primary School, renowned for its long history and high tuition fees. Even those with money and power might not be able to secure a place. Yet this old lady spoke of arranging a class transfer as if it were a simple matter. This family was indeed extraordinary.
Gu Zi and the old lady had a pleasant conversation. The old lady had initially planned to make a brief visit, but ended up chatting for nearly ten minutes. If it weren’t for the fear of interrupting her new neighbors’ mealtime, she would have had much more to say to this young and beautiful new neighbor. Just as she called for her grandson Gao Ming to leave, the young boy was taken aback.
His eyes widened in disbelief at his grandmother. He wanted to ask, “Grandma, have you forgotten our original purpose? I asked you to bring me here for a meal, and now we’re just leaving?”
But Gao Ming held his tongue. After all, he understood basic manners. It was indeed inappropriate to expect a meal on their first visit. He would have to make an effort to get to know his two new “older brothers”. At that moment, Gao Ming felt a pang of regret as he followed his grandmother home.
Before leaving, the old lady gave Gu Zi the box of tea leaves she had brought as a gift. Gu Zi couldn’t refuse and accepted the gift, of course, she was already thinking of a suitable return gift. After all, they were neighbors, and she would have plenty of opportunities to reciprocate.
After seeing off her new neighbors, Gu Zi returned to her house. Seeing that her husband and daughter hadn’t returned yet, she wasn’t in a hurry. She went back to the kitchen to prepare a dish of breaded fried shrimp. Soon, a seafood feast was laid out on the table, with the help of her two sons. Su Li stared at the food, his mouth watering, then suddenly ran excitedly towards the door.
As he ran, he called out, “Dad, sister, you’re finally back! Mom made a seafood feast today. Wow, Dad, you bought so many things, even goldfish…”
Su Li was in full chatterbox mode. Su Bing, having set the table, calmly walked out. He planned to let his father settle in before eating, while he would take care of his little sister.
When Gu Zi came out upon hearing the commotion, she saw a heartwarming scene of fatherly love and filial piety. Su Bing handed Su Le over to their tall and handsome father, who gave Su Bing a manly pat on the shoulder. Su Bing shuddered slightly, looking a bit embarrassed, but Su Shen seemed oblivious to the fact that he had almost knocked his son over with his pat.
He was about to take the bags in his hand upstairs, completely unaware that Gu Zi’s heart had also fluttered at his straightforward behavior.
She felt a sudden sense of relief. Thankfully, Su Bing and the others had been working out for a while, and with her nutritious meals, they had become much stronger. Otherwise, she couldn’t imagine what would have happened. What she was even more grateful for was that he had never used that kind of force on her. Otherwise, she would have been crushed.
Of course, Su Li was also part of this lively scene. He was excitedly looking at the two goldfish that Su Shen had bought. Seeing the goldfish, Gu Zi was also delighted, thinking about putting them in the pond in the front yard.
Gu Zi’s gaze shifted, sweeping over the bags in the man’s hand. Although she didn’t look closely, she still wore a satisfied smile. It seemed that she had made the right choice in asking Jin Long to handle this matter. She would find an opportunity to reward Jin Long with a chicken leg next time. “Su Shen, put your clothes away first, wash your hands, and come down for dinner. After we eat, we can all enjoy your personal fashion show.”
Su Shen’s eyes crinkled with amusement, but he didn’t make a fuss. Gu Zi’s wardrobe was about to welcome a few new additions. He responded in a deep voice, “Alright, let’s do it.”
