"How ridiculous?" Yan Suizhi asked.
Hearing this, Gu Yan paused for a moment, then turned his head with his hands on the edge of the pool, and looked into his eyes with deep eyes.
Yan Suizhi laughed again. He tapped his forehead lightly with his knuckles and corrected: "No, why am I asking this, what absurd idea should I ask?"
His voice is not too high, perhaps the atmosphere of the cherry orchard at night can easily make people feel relaxed and lazy.
This kind of gentle tone with a smile always makes people want to talk to him without reservation.
But Gu Yan turned his eyes back and continued to rinse his fingers.
Yan Suizhi suspected that this was probably the longest time Gu Yan took to wash his hands, almost to his own abnormal level.
"You don't want to hear it." Gu Yan said without raising his head.
Yan Suizhi made a "tsk", but did not contain any impatience. He just... had the feeling of being lightly scratched at lunch again, and used this tone to express, "Do I want to listen to me, why don't you decide for me?"
Gu Yan: "Well."
"Huh?" Yan Suizhi couldn't help laughing and crying, "Do you plan to use the tricks of the court on your own teacher?"
"Now I'm a teacher in name." Gu Yan said.
Maybe his deep voice was too suitable for the night in the cherry orchard, and Yan Suiyi couldn't get angry at all when he talked back.
He squinted and pondered for a moment, then said: "I always feel that when I asked the first question, you intended to answer. After saying one more sentence... Did you change your mind?"
Gu Yan finally stood up straight, took a piece of sterilizing paper to wipe the water on his hands, and the gentle sound of water flow stopped with his movements. He moved his toes and turned around. In this way, Yan Suizhi became face to face.
The place where the railings come out is not large, and it was originally just a stone platform for one person to wash their hands. Standing with his eyes facing each other like this, and when Gu Yan lowered his eyes slightly, the space seemed to suddenly shrink again. It was obviously open air, but somehow felt a little cramped.
Yan Suizhi leaned on the upper body of the railing and subconsciously gave a little back, and bumped into the ivy wrapped around the vertical railing.
The flower branch that extended out swayed gently by the side of his face.
Gu Yan looked at him for a while, then moved his gaze to the flower branch.
He casually stretched out his hand and held it lightly, and the swaying flower branch became quiet, "You had no interest in this kind of thing before."
"Which?"
"This kind of 'other people's outdated and irrelevant thoughts'." Gu Yan said calmly.
Yan Suizhi was stunned for a moment.
In fact, Gu Yan is right. He doesn't like to be explored, and he is also not so interested in exploring others. Except in court, he doesn't pay attention to other people's thoughts, not to mention that he did not know how many years ago. Ideas that have expired. Because those things have little effect on him, and he doesn't care about the good or the bad.
But now he is having a rare inquisitive mind.
At this time, Professor Yan Da, who had a bright tongue in the courtroom, unexpectedly did not know how to explain this kind of psychology, or did not know how to explain it more properly. So he avoided the important and threw the question back to Gu Yan, "How many definitions have you secretly given me?"
The word "secretly" was inexplicably amused by Gu Yan. After Yan Suizhi asked, there was a smile in his eyes again, and there was a hint of narrowness in his clearness.
Gu Yan: "..."
Others were a little excited after drinking, but he seemed more restrained, as if he had suppressed the loss of control and arrogance that normal people should have.
Yan Suizhi looked at him calmly: "So... your so-called absurd idea is also the definition secretly secretly? The derogatory kind?"
"no."
Gu Yan answered firmly.
He didn't seem surprised by Yan Suizhi's question.
After finishing speaking, he turned his head and rushed to the bushes not far away: "Stop being a thief on tiptoe."
Joe's head stuck out from behind the bushes with a confused face: "I have minimized the movement of the brakes, and I am going to go back quietly. How can you still hear my movement?"
Gu Yan expressionlessly pointed to the ground nearby. Seeing that Young Master Qiao's shadow was directly hit here by the lamp behind him, as long as you look at Yan Suizhi, you can notice the sneaky shadow.
Yan Suizhi turned around and glanced.
Qiao stood up with her hands high, and said in a surrender, "I'm just here to wash my hands... I'm not bothering you, right?"
"No." When Gu Yan turned his head and walked back, the corner of his mouth moved slightly, with a hint of self-deprecation, but no one saw it.
Yan Suizhi looked at his back.
Joe walked over to the pool and mumbled, "Why do I think he's a little upset because of me?"
After a while, Yan Suizhi said, "It's not you."
"What's the matter?" Joe asked.
"Maybe I accidentally pinched his mint leaves." Yan Suizhi said.
Joe: "Huh???"
Young Master Qiao was confused, and his brows were twisted into a knot, "Where did you pinch him? Am I drunk or something, I don't understand at all."
If you don't understand, you don't understand. When the eldest young master said "where are you pinching", he subconsciously lowered his head and glanced at various parts of his body.
Yan Suizhi: "..."
However, although Young Master Qiao's alcoholism is on the rise, his friends still have to maintain it. So he half-truth glared at Yan Suizhi and asked, "Did you pinch on purpose?"
Yan Suizhi, "...No."
"What now?"
"Coax." Yan Suizhi smiled.
Joe's expression suddenly became particularly wonderful.
With a ghostly appearance, he blinked and said, "To be honest, this is the first time in my life that I heard that someone is going to coax him. Can I take a look?"
Yan Suizhi: "...To be honest, this is the first time in my life to coax someone."
Joe immediately changed his words, "Forget it, I still don't watch it, so as not to hurt the innocent."
As he spoke, he patted Yan Suizhi on the shoulder, like an elder, and said earnestly, "It's better to do it yourself."
If one day he knew who he was pretending to be an elder to, he might want to chop off his hand.
In a sense, Gu Yan deserves to be Yan Suizhi's direct student. It is also difficult for ordinary people to see whether he is really happy or really unhappy, because no matter what his mood is, his face is frozen.
Even on the way out of the cherry orchard, Yan Suizhi answered whatever he said, no different from usual.
Even Master Qiao felt that the so-called "not very happy" before should be his delusion.
Joe got into the car with the sleeping Ke Jin. He originally planned to directly change a hotel for Gu Yan and Yan Suizhi, but Gu Yan said that they would return to Decama tomorrow, and there was no need to change places. Qiao gave up and just drove the two to the downstairs of the hotel.
Before leaving, he glanced at the building from the car window, pointed his finger and said, "Who chose a place for you? You really have a good eye."
"What?" Gu Yan asked.
"It's nothing." Qiao said, "I heard Manson mentioned before, and old Manson is still panting. His weasel brother has started to get restless. He has taken over a batch of old buildings without authorization, and he doesn't know what to do. This hotel and the street next to it are in it. Although the appointment has not yet arrived, there should already be many people from the Manson family in this area."
"Only here?"
"More than that, it is said that there are not only Lyra Stars, there are quite a few places." Qiao said, "but it is safe to live here, after all, if something happens to the place they just collected, they will be smashed. I don't know anything else. I know, this point is still clear, they generally don't dirty their own territory, and they only create blockages for others."
He said with a snort, and said, "Have the same virtue as the old fox."
The old fox in his mouth is his own father. As we all know, the father-son relationship between them has been in a sub-zero state all the year round. It has been frozen since Qiao was about eight or nine years old, and it has not melted until now. The only contact between Qiao and the family is her sister Eunice. The young master is very tenacious. After being accepted twice for economic openings, I simply cut off the source and borrowed some start-up capital from my sister for investment.
He is born to have fun, and he is not ambitious, just enough to spend enough for him to play. Compared with my father and sister, it is far worse, but still richer than most people.
The first key to getting along with Master Qiao is "don't take the initiative to mention his father", otherwise his mood will become very bad.
Therefore, after hearing what he said, Gu Yan didn't talk much, and simply changed the subject and said, "How far has Old Manson reached?"
In fact, he has no interest in these complicated families at all, but when Joe brings it up, he always asks a few more questions along the topic to make sure that Joe is not involved in the mess.
"It is said that the will has been made for three months." Qiao said.
In order to avoid some disputes and emphasize the validity of self-made wills, the Union has a special authority, the Wills Committee. Some people choose to entrust the execution of their wills to their family members or lawyers, but some people who have complex family relationships or who have no family members to entrust, will choose to submit their wills to the Wills Committee.
After the committee confirms the death, it will gradually implement the contents of the will under procedural safeguards.
The advantage is that this kind of program is extremely difficult to interfere with, and it has hardly made any mistakes over the years, and it is not threatened by any forces. The disadvantage is that the efficiency is relatively low, because most people who need the help of the will committee to execute their wills either involve too much property or too many public welfare organizations. This often requires multiple layers of review and confirmation. This process can be as short as two or three months, or as long as one year.
"Manson's brothers are crazy because the old man didn't give the will to the lawyer, but to the committee," Joe said.
This move is worth pondering. If the content of the will is obviously beneficial to those few, why should it be handed over to the committee? Just let them do it. Submitted to the committee, obviously because of the content of the will they would disagree.
"But it's their housework. The old fox is close to his house, and I'm not that deeply involved."
Qiao chatted briefly with them again, and then took Ke Jin back.
After Gu Yan and Yan Sui went upstairs, they also went back to their rooms.
I thought there was nothing to say all night, but an hour later, Gu Yan's door was suddenly knocked.
He was stunned for a moment, picked up the clean shirt hanging on the hanger, put it on, and reached out to open the door when the last few buttons were fastened.
"I'm ready to sleep now?" Yan Suizhi outside the door glanced at him with wet short hair.
"Well." Gu Yan asked, "Is something wrong?"
As soon as he finished asking, he saw Yan Suizhi raise the glass in his hand, "I'll bring you some bedtime drinks."
Professor Yan Da's so-called bedtime drink is very familiar, ice water infused with mint leaves.
"… "
Gu Yan asked with a paralyzed face, "Purpose?"
Yan Suizhi rolled his eyes, "Let's coax the tantrum students who are irritable, let's get down."
Gu Yan: "..."
