My Xiangshan

Chapter 21 Acquaintance

For the next week, Gu Xi didn't talk to Xiang Shan again.Sometimes when he came to the classroom, there was only Xiangshan lying on the table very sleepily. Gu Xi didn't know whether he was awake or asleep, and sat quietly three rows away from him.It was only later that I heard that Xiangshan spent his spare time cleaning up the laboratory.

The second uncle's condition was under control in time, he was discharged from the hospital and rested for a few days before returning to work in the entertainment city.Knowing that Gu Xi didn't listen to his persuasion at the beginning, he came here to replace him on his own initiative, and finally decided to work in this place for a long time, so he didn't get angry and ignored him for several days.But Gu Xi is not young anymore, he has his own plans, so it's useless to talk more.When the second uncle was drinking some delicious dishes made by Gu Xi the night before yesterday, he said sullenly: "You have always had a stubborn temper, and no one can change it. , what you shouldn’t do, you should be clear in your heart.”

Gu Xi breathed a sigh of relief:

"Thank you, uncle!"

The second uncle continued to drink his wine and ignored Gu Xi.

It's the beginning of another week, and Gu Xi has a very headache. He doesn't like experiment classes.He was not interested in those messy physics experiments, but they still followed the weekend.

This weekend, he barely slept a wink.A group of guests came from Guangdong, and they started talking in the meeting room for an afternoon. Gu Xi, together with others, stood guard outside the door.Later, it seemed that the business was done and the entertainment began, so he couldn't be idle, so he followed the guests downstairs.Unexpectedly this time, the manager actually asked them all to go in and told them to do their job well.It can be seen that these guests have some background and are cautious in doing things.

Throughout the night, Gu Xi listened to signs that these people were making huge profits by smuggling, but it was unknown what they were smuggling.

Standing like this all night, no matter how healthy you are, there are times when you can't stand it.Before doing the experiment, he didn't listen to a single word of the instructor's analysis.When it was his turn to do it himself, every step was half a beat slower than others, and when everyone was gone in twos and threes, he hadn't finished.

"Are you having trouble?"

Gu Xi looked up, it was actually Xiangshan.He didn't know what to say, he could describe how embarrassed he was just by imagining.

"The tutor has already left, he asked me to stay and tidy up the laboratory." Xiangshan deliberately explained that there was no one else here, wanting him to relax.

He didn't know that it was himself who could make Gu Xi nervous.

Gu Xi usually doesn't care much about other people's opinions, but he pays special attention to Xiangshan.

In fact, if he had stayed in the business school back then, it would have been much better than it is now. Gu Xi would go to listen in whenever he had time, and he was fully motivated in class, unlike the machinery side, where he was not interested in anything.But if you stay there, it may be difficult to see Xiangshan.

For a long time, Gu Xi was very thankful that he was transferred to the School of Mechanical Engineering, because Xiangshan was there.

"This experiment...is not easy for me to do." Gu Xi didn't know what to say, so he could only choke out this sentence.

Xiangshan gently pulled his hand away from the table, readjusted the instrument, and then gave him instructions: "This electrical experiment is to verify Thevenin's theorem. You can connect the wiring according to the diagram in the book and try it."

When the two of them walked out of the experimental building, it was already very late, and when they went to the cafeteria, there was not a single dish left.

Gu Xi was very embarrassed:

"I'm delaying you, do you think this is good, come to my house for dinner, it's near the school."

Xiangshan looked at him, his eyes were dark and bright, Gu Xi stopped talking, and he waited for the other party's reply.

"Then... I will trouble you."

Gu Xi took Xiangshan to shuttle through the streets and alleys, and a bicycle came out from the depths of the alley ringing a bell all the way. Gu Xi subconsciously grabbed Xiangshan's hand and took him back a step.After half a day, he let go of his hand, turned around and continued walking.Then he suddenly opened his mouth to explain: "It's okay during the day, but sometimes at night, these cars rush out suddenly, which is quite scary."

When we arrived at Gu Xi's house, the second uncle had just come back, and he was quite surprised to see Xiangshan:

"Hey, isn't this the guy who talked to you at the stall that day? How did you meet again?"

Gu Xi simply said that this is his classmate. Today, because he helped with the experiment, he was busy until the cafeteria closed, so he came back to eat.

Xiangshan really didn't expect that Gu Xi could cook, and he was quite handsome.The second uncle rolled up his trouser legs, sat barefoot at the table, and waited for Gu Xi to serve while drinking.

"Xiao Li, let me tell you, life is about eating and drinking. That's what my old man told me at the time. I think it makes sense. I will remember this sentence for the rest of my life."

Xiangshan took the bowl that Gu Xi handed over, put the dishes in front of the second uncle, and then smiled: "If you can live like this for a lifetime, you will be really happy."

Gu Xi interrupted:

"Don't listen to my uncle's nonsense. He usually sighs when he's full. I don't know what's wrong today."

The second uncle pulled him out of the main room with a chopstick, and sat down again.

He glanced at Gu Xi who was busy in the opposite kitchen, then sighed:

"I don't have a son, but I worry about this kid no less than my son. Don't look at this kid who doesn't talk and is dull. In fact, he is more ambitious than anyone else, but he doesn't have any friends. He never tells others what he thinks. Little Li, the first time I saw you, I knew that you were a very reliable kid. Talk to our family Gu Xi more often, and remind him of anything. Hit the south wall and don't look back."

Xiangshan didn't expect the second uncle to say such words to him suddenly, in fact he has nothing to do with Gu Xi, they can only be regarded as acquaintances among classmates.

His father died when he was very young, and most of the teachings Xiangshan heard came from his mother, but in the past two years, his mother didn't care much about him. She was in poor health and was often in a trance, and Xiangshan never let her worry about it .Xiangshan envied Gu Xi, the second uncle was like any father, always paying close attention to his children.He knew that Gu Xi was a loner, and it was rare for a friend to come into the house. Out of his father's worry mentality, he asked Xiangshan without hesitation, asking him to take care of him.

"It's not worth mentioning, Second Uncle, don't worry, we are friends, we should help each other."

When Gu Xi left the kitchen door, both of them tacitly kept silent about this matter.

After the National Day, the weather gradually cooled down, people's hearts became less impetuous, and work and life were on the right track.Xiangshan continued to do odd jobs in the laboratory during his spare time, occasionally dispensing reagents for students or adjusting machines. This kind of work involved much more professional knowledge than others.Sometimes the instructor wakes him up with a word or two, and the problem that he has been thinking about for several days is easily solved. Xiangshan likes his current life very much.

Apart from going to the entertainment city on weekends, Gu Xi also found a tutor to do it.He didn't dare to set up a small stall anymore, he couldn't make any money, and he had to bring his second uncle with him, in case he had another stomach problem, the loss outweighed the gain.

The child under Gu Xi's care is only in the first grade of junior high school, and the family conditions are very good. Both parents are cadres of public institutions.

His mathematics and English are his strengths. After a few classes, the child's parents were very satisfied, and brought out all the good things at home to entertain him, and kept him for dinner, but Gu Xi declined.

Back at school, Gu Xi searched the library and self-study classrooms, but there was no sign of Xiangshan.

Finally found him in the laboratory.

"I thought you didn't have an experiment today."

After Xiangshan cleaned the experimental equipment, he carefully put it into the box.

"In the afternoon, the instructor notified me that two classes were temporarily arranged to do experiments, and he will be on a business trip tomorrow."

Gu Xi stood behind him, watching Xiangshan's concentration, with his head slightly lowered, revealing his white and lustrous nape.He turned his head to the other side, his throat tightened a bit: "Then let's... let's go eat now."

There were very few people in the cafeteria, so the two bought their own meals and sat down facing each other.

Gu Xi buried his head and swallowed a few mouthfuls of rice. When he saw the soup window opened, he immediately put down the bowl and chopsticks: "I'll bring two bowls of soup, you eat first."

Xiang Shan looked back to see that he was gone, so he picked out all the meat from his own dish and threw it into Gu Xi's bowl.

Not long after, Gu Xi came back.

"Today is Xiaoqingcai, the taste should be good."

There were two green cabbage leaves floating in the bowl, Xiangshan took a sip, and it was as salty as ever.

Gu Xi took two mouthfuls of rice and felt something was wrong, his heart was beating very fast:

"This dish...is not mine."

Xiangshan held down his chopsticks:

"You eat the same dishes every day. You must be tired of eating them. It's good to change them. I'll try yours too."

Gu Xi usually only eats vegetarian dishes at school, and when he goes home to eat with his second uncle, he only wants to improve the food.He didn't expect that someone would give him the meat in the bowl.

What he didn't know was that Xiangshan actually gave him all the meat.

Gu Xi has been worrying since the weekend, and he is not in the mood for class.Xiangshan asked him several times, but he just didn't say anything.

In the evening, the two made an appointment to study together, and went to the classroom after dinner.Xiangshan has been working a lot lately, and he was too tired, so he made an agreement with Gu Xi to sleep on his stomach for a while, and wake him up at 7 o'clock.

The self-study classroom was quiet, except for them, Gu Xi got up and locked the door, leaving the window open.The evening wind blows in, making people lazy and even more tired.

Xiangshan was facing outwards, sleeping soundly.Gu Xi sat beside him, hesitated for a while, and finally stretched out his hand and gently traced his lips with his fingertips, then his slender neck, and finally his hair, stroked it over and over again.

Only with Xiangshan by his side can he calm down and think carefully.

The guests from Guangdong came again last week, and Gu Xi finally knew now that they smuggled mobile phones.

This thing was definitely a luxury item at the time. It was as big as a brick and expensive, but rich people flocked to it.

Gu Xi saw business opportunities in them.

Two days ago in the underground parking lot, the Guangdong guests had conflicts with other guests, and the two sides almost fought, Gu Xi came to mediate.He is very skilled, his brain moves quickly, and he solves the matter immediately.

The other party was very proud and wanted to count the money directly to him, which was not a small amount.Gu Xi didn't want it, he said he wanted to buy ten machines from them.

This group of people had never seen Gu Xi like this before, seeing how courageous he was at such a young age, they offered a reserve price.

In fact, even if all ten machines were sold, he might not be able to make much money, not to mention that he was a student, so where did he come from.

It's better to just take the money and leave to save trouble and peace of mind.

But Gu Xi knew in his heart that this was the most critical opportunity. If he grasped it well, it would be equivalent to opening the door to another world for him.

He really needs these machines to make bets, but the second uncle can't be alarmed, this matter is very risky, even he himself has no idea, and the second uncle will not agree.

Gu Xi simply couldn't afford that much money.
