This feeling was like a gold nugget falling from the sky and hitting him right on target. Professor Gao was suddenly so excited that his words came out in a jumbled mess, "How can I accept this? Shouldn’t I... buy it?"
The thought struck him again: tens of millions, or even over a hundred million! How could he possibly afford it?!
Gu Anxi was very casual about it. "Consider it my homework."
Professor Gao’s eyes welled up. He was silent for a long time before he said softly, "I was wrong in the past. I was too arrogant."
Principal Wang interjected at this moment, "Don’t blame yourself, Gao. Anxi says your voice is especially hypnotic."
Professor Gao froze, a myriad of emotions surging through him. Official source ıs 𝘯𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭⟡𝘧𝘪𝘳𝘦⟡𝘯𝘦𝘵
In the end, he still got into Gu Anxi’s car and headed to Yunxi Hospital.
As soon as he got into the car, Professor Gao couldn’t stop praising it. "This car is amazing! It’s so comfortable. I heard cars can go over 200, is that true?"
Gu Anxi hummed in acknowledgment, then instantly shifted gears and accelerated, letting Professor Gao experience it firsthand.
Professor Gao instantly turned into a damsel in distress—AAAAAH!
Twenty minutes later, the car SQUEALED to a stop in front of the laboratory building. Gu Anxi opened the car door. "Professor Gao, we’re here."
Professor Gao patted his chest. "This car is incredible!"
As soon as he got out, he saw his star pupil throw herself into Professor Bo’s arms. Professor Bo enthusiastically embraced his favorite student.
When Professor Gao saw Bo Xichen, he was again filled with a mix of emotions.
That night, when the Qin family was driven out of Beicheng, he thought he would suffer the same fate, imagining his scholarly dignity would be utterly shattered. But he never expected that not only was he not driven out, but his accommodations were also upgraded, and the service became exceptionally good.
It wasn’t because of the Bo family’s privileged status. Rather, Professor Gao was completely won over by Bo Xichen’s magnanimity. This... this is a true man, someone destined for great things!
Later, when he met with his senior, Master He, Master He explained the situation in Beicheng to him in detail. After understanding Bo Xichen’s influence in Beicheng, Professor Gao was even more impressed by him.
Meanwhile, after Gu Anxi finished her playful coaxing, she invited Professor Gao inside.
In the guest room, Bo Xichen chatted with him while Gu Anxi went to find the paintings.
She soon returned with a stack of sketches, about twenty or so in all.
"Professor Gao, take a look and see which ones you like," she said, placing them in front of him.
Professor Gao was so excited his fingers trembled. He examined each sketch meticulously, yet he was eager to see the next.
When he had finished looking, Professor Gao said softly, "I like all of them."
Bo Xichen smiled, a finger resting against his forehead as he watched his little girl.
Gu Anxi was very generous. "Then take them all back with you. When I have time, I’ll draw a proper one for you, Professor Gao."
Professor Gao was so ecstatic he was nearly incoherent. "Then-then-then, I must treat you, Professor Bo, and Attorney Feng to dinner! I can’t just take these for nothing."
Gu Anxi looked at Bo Xichen.
Bo Xichen smiled. "I’ve been wanting to have dinner with Professor Gao for a while. We won’t be polite today."
Professor Gao, clutching his twenty-odd treasures, kept saying, "No need to be polite, no need at all! It’s what I should do, what I should do."
Ah, his precious drawings!
That night, after dinner, Feng Mian drove Professor Gao home.
Professor Gao burned the midnight oil, meticulously examining each drawing with a magnifying glass. He was so engrossed he even forgot about his wife.
Ah, his precious drawings!
When Gu Anxi and Bo Xichen returned to the small laboratory building, Bo Xichen gently took her hand just as they were about to get out of the car. "Gu Anxi, when will you give me a gift?"
Gu Anxi looked at him, murmured an "Oh," then slowly took a small bottle from her backpack and tossed it to him. "This is your gift."
With that, she got out of the car first.
