In the eyes of the driver, gardener and housekeeper of the He family, He Zhichu's grandeur and grandeur were so grand that he rarely even pushed the car door himself, let alone opening the door for others.
The driver of the Rolls-Royce who hurried out was a fat white man in his forties, but his face was as red as cooked shrimp.
He rubbed his hands, his red face turned pale, and he called out uneasily: "Mr. He, let me do it..."
The driver came over to open the door for Gu Nianzhi.
He Zhichu looked back at him.
To others, there was nothing unusual about it, but the driver felt that the eyes were cold to the bone, and the blazing late September sunshine on the Pontimac River could not make him feel warm.
Mr. He wouldn't fire himself just because he opened the door a step late, right
The driver was so anxious that he 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. The benefits are the same as those of government employees. His family has medical insurance since then. He has worked for more than 20 years. I also have pension insurance for the first time.
He must not lose such a job!
"Mr. He!" the driver called out imploringly, his face so red that he almost wrinkled into a ball.
After thinking about it, she got out of the car and turned to look at the driver curiously, then at He Zhichu, "...Professor He?" She nuzzled 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 let out a heavy breath, showed a big smile to Gu Nianzhi, and bowed deeply.
Gu Nianzhi was startled and hurriedly got out of the way, then nodded to him, "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 not far away from the last century.
"Professor He, is this your home? Are your parents here?" Gu Nianzhi felt a little embarrassed.
She had been to He Zhichu's house in the suburbs of Boston. It was much smaller than this manor, and it looked like He Zhichu's temporary residence.
And this manor has an ancient atmosphere everywhere. It has been passed down by the family from generation to generation. I don’t know how many generations have lived here.
Gu Nianzhi felt that this should be He Zhichu's ancestral home.
Only this reason can explain how He Zhichu could own so much property and so many servants at such a young age.
He should belong to those who have 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 was beeping.
She didn't want to talk anymore, and followed He Zhichu up the steps dullly and into the living room.
Two rows of low-key and expensive oak doors were pushed open by two white maids with black hair, blue eyes, white clothes and black skirts.
As soon as you enter the door, you are greeted by an oval-shaped hall. Opposite the door are two huge spiral staircases leading to the upper floor.
Gu Nianzhi raised his head and took a quick look. This house was three or four stories high, right
How many rooms do we need
"Professor He, do you have a lot of people in your family?" Gu Nianzhi still had the temper of a child. After being depressed for a while, he quickly left and asked with a smile on his face, "So many houses..." She spread her arms and almost turned around. One circle, "How many people can live there?"
"I am the only one who lives here." He Zhichu paused, "Assistant Professor Wen lives in a guest room not far from here."
For such a large manor, of course there is more than one main house, and there are several small buildings scattered in all directions of the manor.
When the lights are turned on at night, the small buildings are like pearls on the green grass, surrounding the main house in the middle.
Gu Nianzhi chuckled twice, secretly wondering why Assistant Wen wanted to live here? Do teaching assistants really double as servants and nannies
At this moment, Gu Nianzhi remembered a scene he had seen outside C University Library.
On a rainy day with heavy rain, Wen Shouyi held an umbrella and protected He Zhichu from getting into the car.
She held all the umbrellas on He Zhichu's side, and it didn't matter if half of her body got wet.
At that time, Gu Nianzhi complained in his mind that she didn't look like a teaching assistant, but more like He Zhichu's nanny.
Now it seems that the two people do have a close relationship.
After understanding this, it would be a bit indifferent for her to casually report Wen Shouyi's situation in front of He Zhichu.
Maybe He Zhichu brought her to his home just to highlight Wen Shouyi's unusual relationship with him, so that she wouldn't embarrass Wen Shouyi anymore
For the first time, Gu Nianzhi was a little unsure about the next three years of his master's degree career.
Could it be that it was really for her own good that Wen Shouyi came to persuade her not to insist on studying at He Zhichu's graduate school
This is too scary...
Gu Nianzhi shook his head and suppressed this thought.
"What are you thinking about?" He Zhichu opened the refrigerator and took a watermelon hie and handed it to her hand. "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 hint of tenderness flashed through his peach blossom eyes. He reached out and took a strand of hair hanging down from the side of her face and tucked it behind her ear.
Gu Nianzhi hurriedly took a step back, feeling uncomfortable at He Zhichu's touch.
She put down the watermelon hie and twisted her hands, "Professor He, are you okay? If nothing happens, please send me back. My guardian is waiting for me at home."
"...You obviously have doubts, why don't you ask me?" He Zhichu took a step forward, not allowing her to back down, "Have you really never had any doubts?"
"What are you doubting?" Gu Nianzhi blinked and raised his long, thin, dark eyebrows, "You are my professor and mentor, and you are so good to me. Why should I doubt you when I am so full?"
"You were clearly wondering why Wen Shouyi lived here just now, why didn't you ask?" He Zhichu's face turned cold. He sat on the off-white brocade single sofa and rested one arm leisurely on the armrest of the sofa. He looked at her with twinkling peach blossom eyes, and his straight nose and cool thin lips showed that he was very unhappy.
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 it."
Why does Wen Shouyi live in He Zhichu's house, and what does it have to do with her
She is just his student, does she still need to check his net worth and household registration
"It doesn't matter?" He Zhichu looked at Gu Nianzhi, unable to tell whether he was disappointed or confused, "It really doesn't matter?"
"... 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. He stretched out his slender right hand, pinched his thumb and index finger together and gestured: "I As your student, I dare not ask for too much, I only expect this little from you.”
"Only this little bit?" He Zhichu was so angry that she laughed, "Student Gu is really humble and not greedy at all."
"Well, I have always been a good student with both good character and academics, and can think of others." When Gu Nianzhi praised himself, even he blushed.
He Zhichu closed his eyes, put one hand on his forehead, sat on the sofa with his legs crossed, and waved with the other hand, "Go back, go to the garage and find the driver to take you off. "
He sent her away without even looking at her.
Although Gu Nianzhi was a little unhappy, he did not lose 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, see you Professor He." He turned around and left like a model student.
He Zhichu raised his eyes and saw her back walking further and further away. He had no intention of lingering. He clenched his fists tightly and shouted again: "... Nianzhi."
