Chapter 170 Entrance
In the eyes of the drivers, gardeners, and housekeepers of the He family, He Zhichu's ostentation and pomp were particularly great, not to mention opening doors for others, and he seldom even pushed the doors himself.
The driver of the Rolls-Royce hurried out was a fat white man in his forties, but his face was tanned red, like boiled shrimp.
He rubbed his hands, his red face turned white, and he called out uneasily: "Mr. He, let me come..."
The driver came over to open the door for Gu Nianzhi.
He Zhichu looked back at him.
It seemed nothing unusual to others, but the driver only felt that the eyes were icy cold, and the blazing sunshine of the Pontimac River at the end of September could not make him feel warm.
Wouldn't Mr. He fire him just because he opened the door one step late?
The driver was sweating profusely.
He has been unemployed for many years. He finally found this job three years ago. The annual salary is twice the market price, which is good. All the benefits are the same as those of government employees. Since then, his family has had medical insurance. He has worked for more than 20 years. Also had pension insurance for the first time.
He must not lose such a job!
"Mr. He!" The driver cried out pleadingly, his face so red and black that it almost crumpled into a ball.
Gu Nian got out of the car, turned to look at the driver curiously, and then at He Zhichu, "...Professor He?" She pouted at the driver.
He Zhichu's expression softened a little, and he nodded to the driver, "It's okay, she's my...student, I'll just take her in, you park the car in the garage, and take her home later."
The driver took a deep breath, showed a big smile to Gu Nianzhi, and bowed deeply.
Gu Nianzhi was startled, stepped aside hastily, and nodded to him again, "I'm sorry to trouble you."
The driver returned to the car with a silly smile and drove away.
Gu Nianzhi followed He Zhichu to the white colonial-style mansion of the last century not far away.
"Professor He, is this your home? Are your parents here?" Gu Nianzhi was a little embarrassed.
She has been to He Zhichu's house in the suburbs of Boston, which is much smaller than this manor, and it looks like He Zhichu's temporary residence.
And this manor has an ancient atmosphere everywhere, and the family has passed it down from generation to generation. I don't know how many generations live here.
Gu Nianzhi felt that this should be He Zhichu's ancestral house.
Only this reason can explain how He Zhichu was able to own so much property and so many servants at such a young age.
He should belong to the person with old-money.
He Zhichu smiled, shook his head and said, "No, my parents are not here. This is just a temporary residence."
Such a large manor, or a temporary residence? !
Gu Nianzhi really felt that the dog beeped.
She didn't want to talk anymore, and followed He Zhichu up the steps dully, into the living room.
Two rows of low-key and expensive oak doors were pushed open by two black-haired, blue-eyed, white maids in white clothes and black skirts.
As soon as you enter the door, you will find an oval hall. Facing the door, there are two huge spiral spiral staircases leading to the upper floor.
Gu Nianzhi raised his head and took a rough look. This house is three or four stories high, right?
How many rooms do you have?
"Professor He, do you have a lot of people in your family?" After all, Gu Nianzhi still had a childish temper. After being depressed for a while, he quickly put it away and asked with a smile on his face, "So many rooms..." She spread her arms and almost turned around. Walked around, "How many people can live there?"
"I'm the only one living here." He Zhichu paused, "Assistant Professor Wen lives in a guest room not far from here."
Such a large manor, of course, not only has one main house, but also several small buildings scattered in all directions of the manor.
When the lights are on at night, the small buildings are like pearls on the green grass, surrounding the main house in the middle.
Gu Nianzhi laughed twice, wondering why Assistant Professor Wen lived here? Could it be that teaching assistants are really both servants and babysitters?
At this moment, Gu Nianzhi remembered the scene he saw outside the library of C University.
On a rainy day when it was raining heavily, Wen Shouyi held up an umbrella and helped He Zhichu get into the car.
She put all the umbrellas on He Zhichu's side, and it didn't matter if she got half wet.
At that time, Gu Nianzhi complained in his heart, thinking that she was not like a teaching assistant, but rather He Zhichu's nanny.
It now appears that the two are indeed closely related.
Knowing this, if she wants to report to Wen Shouyi casually in front of He Zhichu, it's a bit irrelevant.
Maybe He Zhichu brought her to his house just to show Wen Shouyi's unusual relationship with him, so that she wouldn't embarrass Wen Shouyi anymore, right?
For the first time, Gu Nianzhi was a little uncertain about his future three-year master's career.
Could it be that Wen Shouyi came to persuade her not to stick to He Zhichu's graduate student, really for her own good?
This is too scary...
Gu Nianzhi shook his head and suppressed the thought.
"What are you thinking about?" He Zhichu opened the refrigerator, took a watermelon smoothie and handed it to her, "If you don't understand anything, you can ask me, don't think about it yourself, it's not like your style. "
He Zhichu stared at her, a trace of tenderness flashed across his bright peach eyes, he stretched out his hand, and brushed a strand of hair hanging from the side of her face behind her ear.
Gu Nianzhi hurriedly took a step back, feeling uncomfortable with He Zhichu's touch.
She put down the watermelon smoothie and twisted her hands, "Professor He, do you have anything else to do? If there is nothing else, please send me back. My guardian is waiting for me at home."
"...You obviously have doubts, why didn't you ask me?" He Zhichu stepped forward, not allowing her to back down, "You really never doubted?"
"What do you doubt?" Gu Nianzhi blinked, and raised her fine black eyebrows, "You are my professor and mentor, you are so kind to me, why should I doubt when I am full?"
"You were obviously wondering why Wen Shouyi lived here just now, why didn't you ask?" He Zhichu's face turned cold, and he sat on the off-white brocade single sofa, with one arm resting leisurely on the armrest of the sofa, Picking up the twinkling peach blossoms and looking at her, the straight nose bridge and the cool lips showed that he was very displeased.
Gu Nianzhi lowered his head and tightened his hands, "Professor He, this question has nothing to do with me, I don't want to ask."
Why did Wen Shouyi live in He Zhichu's house, and what did it have to do with her?
She is just his student, so do you still want to check his wealth and household registration?
"Irrelevant?" He Zhichu looked at Gu Nianzhi, unable to tell whether he was disappointed or at a loss, "Really irrelevant?"
"...As long as you abide by your professional ethics and don't show favoritism." Gu Nianzhi raised his head and spread his hands, with a smile on his face again, stretched out his slender right hand, pinched his thumb and index finger together for a gesture: " As your student, I don't dare to ask too much, and I only expect so little from you."
"Only a little bit?" He Zhichu was so angry that she laughed, "Student Gu is really very humble, not greedy at all."
"Well, I've always been a good student who is good at both character and learning, and who can think about others." When Gu Nianzhi praised himself, he even blushed.
He Zhichu closed his eyes, propped one hand on his forehead, and sat on the sofa with his legs crossed, his body didn't move, and he waved the other hand, "Go back, go to the garage and find the driver to take you. "
He sent her away without looking at her.
Although Gu Nianzhi was a little unhappy, he didn't show his temper in front of He Zhichu.
What kind of onion is she?
When people gave her three points of color, she really opened a dyeing workshop.
Gu Nianzhi said to He Zhichu politely: "Then I'm leaving, Professor He goodbye." Turning around and leaving like a model student.
He Zhichu raised his eyes and saw her back going farther and farther away, without any nostalgia, he clenched his fists tightly with both hands, and called out again: "...Nanzhi."
