"Congratulations, Gu, your work won the first place in this art competition!"

Gu Qingcheng was in a trance, and he heard a sentence of English ringing in his ears.

She instantly switched identities, curled the corners of her lips, and showed a gentle and subtle smile: "Thank you!"

"What about first place? Don't you still not get a degree?"

In this world, there has never been a shortage of-stirring sticks that pour cold water.

It's obviously a cheerful banquet, but there are always one or two discordant voices.

However, although this person was jealous, he didn't dare to really blatantly find fault.

His muttering voice was very soft, and Gu Qingcheng, who was more than a dozen steps away, should not have heard it.

It's a pity that Gu Qingcheng is not the original owner, she has six senses, not to mention a dozen steps away, even a small whisper dozens of steps away, she can hear it clearly.

"Can't get your degree?"

Why?

Isn't it number one?

And from the memories that Gu Tingcheng received, the original owner Gu Wanqing had A+ grades during her study abroad.

The best of the best.

"I guess, just because she's a woman!"

In this era, even in an ugly country known as cooking, there is still very serious gender discrimination.

Gu Tingcheng didn't open God's perspective, nor did she unlock all the scripts, but she could still guess the reason through some of the scripts she got and the memories of the original owner who fused.

Grief and indignation, but helpless.

Because with the current situation of "Gu Wanqing", she can't change the world.

So—

"No! I will not give in!"

Gu Tingcheng clenched his wine glass, continued to smile and greet people on the surface, but made a decision in his heart.

"Wanqing, are you tired? Do you want to go back?"

Gu Tingcheng was thinking about it, and a gentle voice came from far and near.

Without looking back, just listening to the voice, Gu Tingcheng knew the identity of the person who came - Wei Jingxi, the fiancé of the original owner Gu Wanqing.

The Gu family and the Wei family are world friends, and Gu Wanqing's father and Wei Jingxi's father are the first batch of international students to go to Chou.

They are classmates and world friends, but their interests and specialties are different.

Gu's father is a typical literati, when he studied abroad, he also studied philosophy, and after returning to China, he became one of the top writers in China.

Wei's father was a science and engineering man, who studied physics and other majors abroad, and became the founder of physics majors in China after returning to China.

The friendship of the first generation continued to Gu Wanqing's generation.

Gu Wanqing and Wei Jingxi were childhood sweethearts and grew up together.

As adults, the two studied abroad together.

Gu Wanqing chose to major in architecture, while Wei Jingxi inherited his father's business and plunged headlong into the circle of physics.

The two have different majors and hobbies, and they seem to be very different.

Gu Wanqing chases art, but Wei Jingxi is more like a standard science and engineering man.

However, the relationship between the two is very good and has not been affected by these differences.

The two families even had an agreement, and they only waited for the two to return to China after graduation, and they were officially married.

Now in their fourth year of college, the two are about to finish their studies.

Wei Jingxi had excellent grades and got his bachelor's degree ahead of schedule.

Gu Wanqing but for some reason, even if she wins the first place in the competition, she may not be able to really graduate.

"It's alright!"

Gu Qingcheng "reluctantly" pulled out a smile.

Although Wei Jingxi is a science man, he is not blind.

The main reason is that he really loves his fiancée, so he sees and remembers the other party's smile in his eyes and in his heart.

「…… Let's go home!"

Wei Jingxi came to Gu Qingcheng's side, reached out and grabbed her arm, and said softly.

"Good!"

Gu Tingcheng nodded, and together with Wei Jingxi, said goodbye to the classmates and friends around him

。

When he got out of the banquet hall and there were no people around, Wei Jingxi asked in a low voice, "What's going on?" I don't think you're happy!"

It was a joy that my fiancée's work won an award.

But why does Wanqing still have this look?

"Has anyone embarrassed you?"

When Wei Jingxi said this, a cold glint flashed in his eyes.

Although they are in a foreign country, neither of them is an ordinary ordinary citizen.

The fathers of both parties are well-known people in China, and there are many classmates and friends in the ugly country.

They will not take the initiative to provoke, but if they are bullied, they will also have someone to help support them.

"It's not embarrassing, because people are telling the truth."

Gu Tingcheng still looked lonely, she lowered her head, and seemed to be hesitating.

"Honestly? What truth?"

Wei Jingxi didn't believe the truth, because many times, the so-called truth hurts people the most.

"Jingxi, I want to change the department!"

Gu Qingcheng suddenly raised his head, and instead of answering Wei Jingxi's question, he threw out such a clueless sentence.

"Transfer?"

Wei Jingxi's brows were almost twisted into a pimple.

It's a senior year, and I'm going to graduate in another year, but Wanqing wants to change departments.

This, this—

"Which major do you want to transfer to?"

Although Wei Jingxi did not agree, he understood Wanqing.

Although his fiancée looks gentle and soft, she is actually strong in her heart.

She easily doesn't make up her mind, but once she makes a choice, she will stick to it.

Besides, Wanqing is not a fool.

She's smart, she's sensible, she understands what she wants.

Rashly changing the system seems absurd, and it shouldn't be a hot-headed nonsense.

She must have her own reasons.

"Department of Finance!"

Gu Tingcheng spit out these three words.

Wei Jingxi: ......

Faculty of Architecture to Department of Finance?

It's like asking him to do physics and run to write articles.

The span is too large.

"May I ask why?"

Wei Jingxi didn't say things like "you're crazy" or "don't mess around", but asked the reason more and more gently.

"Just now, someone said that no matter how good I am, I won't be able to get a degree certificate!"

Gu Tingcheng did not hide it, but directly took out this sentence as an excuse.

"Although these words are full of jealousy and hatred, there is some truth in them."

Gu Qingcheng raised his head, his beautiful eyes flashed with stubbornness, "I know, it's really nonsense to change the system now, but, I'm not reconciled!"

"And, if you know that there will be no result, why bother to force it!"

"Instead of wasting time here and adding to the jokes, it's better to change your major."

"The Department of Finance is good! Maybe I'll be able to try my hand at Wall Street in the future."

The more Gu Qingcheng spoke, the more passionate he became.

Her clear eyes shone with a burning light.

Wei Jingxi, who originally felt very disobedient, saw such a fiancée, and swallowed all the words of consolation that rushed to his lips.

"Good! I've got your back!"

Changing majors in the senior year is indeed a bit nonsense.

But, Wanqing is happy!

Wanqing was happy, and he was happy.

Besides, there's nothing wrong with studying finance, although it's a bit vulgar to talk about money in a scholarly family like theirs.

But, in the world, who can really not eat the fireworks of the world?

Wei Jingxi is a science and engineering man, but he doesn't really only know how to do experiments and do research.

If nothing else, research alone requires a lot of money.

It's okay in the ugly country, he is a student, and he is a very good mentor to be treated.

All the expenses required for the experiment are paid by the school or the tutor.

But now, Wei Jingxi has graduated and begun to think about returning to China, and domestic physics is still in its infancy.

There is a shortage of talents and equipment.

My father, as the president of the university and the founder of the Faculty of Physics, often had a headache over a material.

Not to mention that you can't buy it in China, even if you can buy it, the cost is expensive.

Wei Jingxi originally wanted to bring some things back, but he was shy in his pocket.

If he is just studying and living, he is not short of money.

But if you buy everything you need...... Well, excuse me! Good bye!

"Jingxi, thank you! I knew you would support me!"

"R. Wei, don't worry, I went to the Department of Finance, I will definitely study hard, and in the future, I will go to Wall Street to kill all sides, and your laboratory will not be afraid of lack of money!"

Gu Tingcheng received the support of his "fiancé", and the faint depression that lingered around him was swept away.

She even drew a big pie with a bit of smug emptiness.

Wei Jingxi: ......

Although he doesn't think that his fiancée can really kill all sides on Wall Street, as a man who loves his fiancée deeply, he will only actively echo it.

Never pour cold water on people.

He even nodded very dotingly, "Good! I'll wait!"

"So—"

Gu Qingcheng was very satisfied with Wei Jingxi's answer, she deliberately made a coquettish appearance, stretched out her thumb and little finger, and made a phone call.

"So, I'll call the elders!"

"Just say it's me, if they want to scold, just scold me!"

Wei Jingxi smiled and made a guarantee.

"Jingxi, you're so nice! I'm glad to have you—"

Gu Qingcheng grabbed Wei Jingxi's arm lovingly, stood on tiptoe, and kissed him directly on the cheek.

The petal-like lips are pink and moisturized, and when they touch the cheeks, they feel wonderful to the touch.

At least, Wei Jingxi lost his mind for a moment.

In addition to this damn wonderful feeling, it's also because the fiancée has never been so intimate.

The two are a legitimate unmarried couple, and in the Republic of China, which still continues to be committed to it, even if it has crossed the road.

Even if there is an intimate gesture, or even living in a shared room, it is not too excessive.

However, the Gu family is a famous family, a family of poetry and books, and Gu's father is a typical traditional scholar.

Although he has studied abroad, although he has also accepted Western-style ideas, and even insists on monogamy very rarely, he is still traditional and conservative in his bones.

In fact, although monogamy is admired at present, it is not a new fashion in the new era.

The Celestial Empire has been monogamous since ancient times.

At most, it was legal to take concubines before the Republic of China, but in the Republic of China, the legal status of concubines was abolished.

Many representatives of new ideas, dressed in suits and speaking English, still have aunts, secretaries or students.

Gu's father didn't, he only had a wife and a woman.

Even this wife only gave birth to a daughter at the age of thirty, and Gu's father did not take a concubine.

According to him, "Children have their own fate, and I am destined to have no children, so why force me?"

There is only one daughter, and that is also the blood of the Gu family.

Gu Tingcheng received the memory of the original owner, and he also agreed with Gu's father's statement-

The Gu family has been in succession for several generations, and they are all not rich in heirs.

From the great-grandfather of the original owner, it is a single generation.

In Gu's father's generation, he has also been married for 20 years, and he is nearly middle-aged, so he got a daughter like Gu Wanqing.

Therefore, if the heirs are not abundant, it is really possible that it is the Gu family's pot, not the fault of Gu's mother.

"Evening?"

It is realistic, too.

It is estimated that Gu's father really saw through and figured it out, unlike some men, who obviously have a problem with their own genes.

But he still has to throw the pot on the woman's head, and he is desperate to try.

Gu's father simply "accepted his fate".

A daughter is a daughter, and the left and right daughters are also the blood of the Gu family.

"Father Gu, there are some contradictions!"

On the one hand, he has a traditional concept of scholars, and he agrees with the superiority of men and the inferiority of women, and the male dominance and the female dominance.

For example, for her only daughter Gu Wanqing, she didn't really spoil her to the end.

As far as the matter of taking out the country is concerned, if Gu Wanqing was not engaged to Wei Jingxi and did not accompany Wei Jingxi, he would not agree.

In Gu's father's inherent cognition, a woman should be elegant, dignified, gentle and virtuous.

You can't say that you can't go out of the door, and you can't show up alone.

It's different when you have a fiancé, even if it's a married woman.

A married woman is accompanied by her husband, and she goes abroad and studies together, which is not a mess of the rules!

And this time, Gu Tingcheng had a whim to change his major.

If she told Father Gu herself, Father Gu would definitely reprimand her harshly and stop her strongly.

But if Wei Jingxi came forward and strictly said, "This is my idea", Gu's father would not be too obstructive.

"Probably, in Father Gu's subconscious, he has already passed on the 'guardianship to Wei Jingxi!'"

"Wei Jingxi, as the new guardian, has the right to make decisions for Gu Wanqing!"

Gu Qingcheng silently said to the troubled water.

This is also the characteristic of this era, which seems to have entered a new era, but in fact it is still so conservative.

And most of the people in this era are as contradictory as Gu's father.

They know the decay of the old system and yearn for the advanced and scientific nature of the Western world, but they can't help but follow the old system.

In fact, for Gu Tingcheng, not only in China, but also in the whole world, there are still all kinds of constraints.

"It's hard to break all this!"

Gu Qingcheng sighed silently.

However, no matter how difficult it is, you have to do it.

And, because it's hard, it's great!

Of course, Gu's father's conservative thinking is not so thorough.

He also has the courage to break the other side of the world - not to fight for his son, but to work hard and unscrupulous.

has only one daughter, and obediently "accepts fate" and is carefully raised, just for this reason, Gu's father is even more "progressive" than some men a hundred years later!

The original owner did not experience the big explosion of ideas in later generations, and she did not think too much about the restrictions of the times.

At least for Gu's father, the original owner only has admiration and respect.

She cared very much about Gu's father's decision, so Gu Qingcheng came in and made a decision that was destined to make her father angry, and she definitely couldn't come forward by herself.

Otherwise, once Gu's father gets angry, it will be impossible for Gu Tingcheng to face it head-on.

It will collapse the character!

"I'll help you get scolded, I'm a good person? What if I don't agree?"

Seeing that his fiancée finally stopped looking melancholy, Wei Jingxi's mood also turned cloudy.

He even teased his fiancée in a rare way.

"How dare you disagree?" Gu Tingcheng also cooperated, deliberately puffing out his cheeks, like a fried little milk cat.

Wei Jingxi's eyes became more and more doting.

Just when the fiancé was "flirting", a person with short eyes came over: "Evening sunny! The banquet isn't over yet, why are you leaving?"

PS: On the first day of November, ask for a guaranteed monthly pass!
